1996-05-11 Michael Jackson's roller coaster in Germany 1996 (Phantasialand)

On 11th May 1996, a few days after performing "Earth Song" at the World Music Awards 1996 in Monaco, Michael Jackson went to Germany to inaugurate a new roller coaster in the "Phantasialand" amusement park in Brühl, near Cologne. Michael apparently had some input in the creation of the roller coaster (see 11:08), so it was called "The Michael Jackson Thrill Ride".

( At the same time Michael also made headlines because all of his upcoming HIStory Tour concerts in Germany had been cancelled. More about that topic (and the happy end) in this other video: https://youtu.be/VmZ-k1daczg )
