These twins have ridden over 1,100 roller coasters. They aren't slowing down.

Derek and Doug Perry started riding roller coasters together as kids and still going strong as adults.

"I remember one time being a kid, there was an amusement park book, and our mom would read us pages from it like as a bedtime story," Derek said with a smile. He still loves park statistics."We just retained all this information."

"We're looking at these big rollercoasters, and we're thinking, 'We don't want to go on, and we're too scared to go on.' Do you remember?" Derek said, turning to Doug, who immediately agreed."And our parents said, 'Well, if you're not going to ride the big rides, we can just go to museums for the rest of the trip.'"

"I feel exactly the same way, and I just love that fake fantasy world and just the themes," Doug chuckled."It's an escape.", a Rhode Island amusement park that opened in the 1840s and shuttered in the 1990s.
