9-11 Coaster.

Find out what it's like to spin, glide, skim and fly like a giant airplane when you experience "United Airlines Flight 175"® – the only flying roller coaster of its kind in the world. Riders are taunted by a head-first, face-down inverted crash into the twin towers… and that's just the beginning. Experience the full force and power of riding down the twin towers, all on one of the deadliest tracks in the world.

So you are saying that the French didn't try?

Btw the French have the most military victories in history.

Lel obviously a nation's capacity at "fighting wars" depends on which time period you choose to focus on. Also, should we consider victories in old nations which have acted as their predecessors (geographically, culturally, genetically even) which have nonetheless ceased to exist?

Over the last 100 years, France gawt rekt hard, but Charlemagne w/ Frankia, over a millenium ago, was pretty damn OP. :P

Despite occupation in WWII and defeat in Indochina, the French have remained a force to be reckoned with over the course of the twentieth/twenty-first century.

Here are locations where the French military are currently deployed, according to wikipedia.

France suffers some 6.1 million causalities in WWI and the sheer bravery of their troops at places like the Marne and Verdun practically saves their nation and Allied positions on the Western Front.

But wait, Adolf Hitler had planes and the French understandably didn't want another mass slaughter like they had suffered in WWI (which almost wiped out an entire generation of men) so I guess France 4ever sux and shame.

GG, America, your 200 year infant military history much superior. #Indians2Stupid2InventGuns

I'd say the Swiss have had a bad time with war. It doesn't make them particularly bad at fighting but the Swiss lost a battle in 1515 that forced them to swear eternal peace which has been virtually unbroken.
