Summary: SCP-112 is a rollercoaster in an abandoned amusement park, called the "Blue Steelsurfer." When 112 is activated, and the cars reach the top of the first drop, they vanish, later reappearing at the end of the ride's track, right before the docking point. Although outside observers note the time passed as being 3 minutes, riders of 112 perceive different, and sometimes drastically different, time frames. Multiple riders on the same go-around of 112 have experienced wildly differing times spent on the ride from one another, despite getting on the ride at the same time. These perceived times range anywhere from 4 minutes to multiple months spent riding the coaster. In multiple tests, subjects have described rollercoasters that do not resemble 112's observable state, including different tracks, themes, decorations, etc. No subjects have reported differing environments outside of 112. The only variable appears to be the coaster itself. When exiting the ride, subjects will have feelings of hunger/thirst/exhaustion relative to how long their experienced ride was, but will show no physical signs of suffering from these symptoms. The feelings will be all in their heads. Basically, what a subject experiences during the ride doesn't translate to the real world once the ride is over, even if they feel like it does. Video recordings of subjects prove time passes normally for all except the subject. Subjects are theorized to merely hallucinate any changes experienced, through unknown means.

Usefulness: It could be fun if there wasn't a chance of the ride lasting for months at a time. Right now, the risk is not worth the potential reward. Not useful.

Against 682: 682 wouldn't even fit on 112, let alone be killed by it. Everything they'd experience would be in their head anyways, it wouldn't actually harm them. Dumb idea.
