Does anybody know what coaster they used in the movie Final Destination 3, it looks pretty fun, that is if I don't die. Also it looks like it is but is it a real coaster or not?

The coaster featured in the film was Corkscrew from Playland in Canada. You can find info and pics about the coaster

As I was watching the movie I wasnt like my friends who were thinking what if this happens to me when i ride a roller coaster, I was laughing at how impossible it was and I was wondering if it was a Vekoma or an Arrow.

They actually re-built most of the coaster on sound stages in parts and the park itself was actually mostly filmed off-site. The real park reportedly did not want to be featured in a movie where people die on a ride. Go figure. The next Final Destination will be a race-car accident in the beginning. The best was part 2 I think. The highway pile-up. When you look at this ride you have to think how on earth they made it seem so scary when it looks so....not fun

^I agree! The second one was easily the best! I still, to this day, find myself terrified if I end up driving behind a loggers truck!
