Because it's there.

82 university students set the record today for the most people riding a rollercoaster in the nude. Braving chilly weather, the students took their spin on the Nemesis Inferno rollercoaster at Thorpe Park in Surrey, England. The ride occured before park hours, so as to spare impressionable young children the trauma of seeing naked college students. Also for their sakes, let's hope the cleaning crew was a little extra meticulous before the gates opened.

This story seems to be getting wide play, but any pictures of it are generally from a sufficient distance that it's pretty hard to tell anybody is missing clothes. Who is going to be brave enough to show you a few blurry nipples? The Washington Times won't. ITV won't. The Independent Online won't. MSNBC definitely won't. But apostropher will, baby, apostropher will.

For the record, Reuters, Sky News, and Ananova will, too.
