The Rocket (Ocean View Park)
The Rocket was a airtime laden seaside coaster that resided in Norfolk Virginia from 1929 to it's destruction in 1978. Most people know of the Rocket through the movies though because it played a starring role in the movie "Rollercoaster" and the "Death Of Ocean View Park". In Rollercoaster a terrorist planted a bomb on the turn above the station to derail the coaster and in The "Death Of Ocean View Park" the Rocket was dynamited but refused to fall, the coasters destruction was eventually brought upon for film by pulling it down with bulldozers.
