My daughter(10yr old), niece (13), brother and myself have never had any discomfort or bruises from steel vengence or twisted timbers. Rmc has awesome restraints!
Thanks for a fun video! Two things I heard were not right, though: - Son Of Beat´s loop was not located after the first drop, but midway through the ride, after a block-brake. - The "Cutback" on Drachenfire was not removed. Only one of the corksrcews (the one after the block) was and replaced by a straight decline. Oh, and a few more coasters that took it too far come to mind: - X at Magic Mountain: The trains were too heavy and numerous modifications were made. - Maverick: Barrel roll needed to be replaced before the ride even opened. - Crystal Beach Cyclone; It was such an intense coaster that a nurse was hired to be on duty on the station. - The first Looping Coaster(s) at Coney Island and pretty much all such rides that were built until the 1970s - Alpenflug: The very first suspended coaster that didn´t have banked track. This was built before The Bat, which had the same problems that put too much stress on the cars. - The Bat (see above)
stellaVista Other candidates include Ring Racer (Nurburgring), Green Lantern (SFMM), Orphan Rocker (Scenic World), Twist Coaster Robin (Yomiuriland) and Vertigo (Walibi Belgium).
@@GbHandlebar Ring Racers problems were more or less political. The ride was stupid but working. Yes, they had a malfunction during construction, but these kinks were dealt with. In the end it was a combination of Nürburgrings financial problems (no one wanted the coaster/amusement park in the first place) and backwood politicians, who lobbied for a sale of the whole premise, that led to its ultimate failure. Green Lantern is a strange one. It´s a clone of Insane in Sweden and that works quite fine. Orphan Rocker and Twist Coaster Robin were shitty and unprofessional designs. I get it with Orphan Rocker as it was built by some private company who never built a coaster before. Twist Coaster, however was baffling....what a mess of a ride. Vertigo: Yes, they took it too far with the idea that multiple cars could run the course without block brakes. The cars were supposed to measure the distance between them and act accordingly. This apparantly turned out to be a problem. But hey, the original video includes Steel Vengeance, a coaster that took a ride that used to take it to far and turned it into an amazing piece of rideable art!
Intimidator was nucking futs! I screamed on that coaster louder than I have in my life! I was had actually been sick on the day before riding it and had lost my voice. After Intimidator, I was back to normal. I guess the screaming loosened something up.
Son of Beast was the world’s longest looping coaster when it opened. Once the loop was removed, the record went to the next one in line, which just happened to be California Screamin’ (Now known as Incredicoaster) at Disney California Adventure.
The reason Busch Gardens approached Arrow for Drachen Fire was because B&M was not confident enough to take on two projects at once. Busch Gardens originally wanted to add the same coaster to both Tampa and Williamsburg. B&M accepted the Tampa project but turned down the Williamsburg project.
Great job! Thanks for the credits! There is one small correction though in regards to the Son of Beast accident. There are numerous sites that claim the train stopped suddenly when it hit the problematic area. This isn't actually the case as the train did make it back to the station on its own. The bad section of track provided a nasty pothole-type anomaly that injured riders as it went through it. Just imagine driving over a big pothole at nearly 80 mph. Ouch!
i never knew that as well.. all anyone ever shows is a train literally stuck on a hill section of the track making it look like it was an immediate abrupt stop. thats cool to know
@@cullenmcgoran7291The train stuck on the lift was actually the train that was dispatched before the train with the injured riders came back to the station. Once the crew knew something was wrong they e-stopped the train on the lift. Had that train made it over the lift, it would have been very, very bad. Great action from the crew!
Really enjoyed this, nice job Chris and Jordan! I don’t know how true this is and I doubt it’s the full truth but I remember hearing back in the early to mid 2000’s that Tussauds had some sort of agreement with B&M that Oblivion was to be the only Dive Coaster in Europe for a set number of years and that’s why we didn’t see many of them built for a fair while after, I wouldn’t be surprised if that’s complete bullsh*t though but could also explain why none of them were built after Oblivion for ages. That Tower of Terror coaster looks absolutely horrific, I’ve always thought that! Son of Beast looks like it was horrific too, that said the Beast looks pretty uninspiring and something I’m curious about getting on in June! Intimidator looks absolutely insane, it’s definitely on my to-do list. Is it bad I wish I’d been able to have a go on Steel Phantom? Arrow fanboyism at its best! Steel Vengeance should be an incredible coaster, well, it is I suppose but it’s absolutely ruined by the restraints for me. It should be my favourite coaster because the layout is incredible but the restraints ruined it for me. Drachen Fire was a sure sign that Arrow was falling behind, the documentary about Arrow Dynamics by ACE is really good and they talk about this coaster a lot, along with the competition from B&M. Arrow spent all of their resources on researching new ideas like their 4D coaster rather than pouring money into redesigning their track design and trains which in the long run would have probably saved them.
Steel Vengeance was the only coaster I have ever ridden that made me go "WTF just happened" when I got off. My first ride on it was at night and it's so fast and so disorientating you don't know which way is up at some points. Absolutely insane ride and I'm so happy it's at my home park!
in july another RMC hybrid coaster will be opened at Walibi Holland. 14 times airtime, a drop with 80 degrees from 36,5 meters to 2 meter with right after that a Microbunny... this will be awesome and also be the first Hybrid coaster in Europe!
6.3 Gs?! If anyone wants a perspective on that, my father was a harrier pilot and he said that he had to train himself to withstand at least 6 Gs when flying. 6.3 Gs to the average person is, to put it mildly, FUCKING INSANE. Forget greying out, that’s the type of G force that makes you pass the fuck out.
Here is some other coasters: Shockwave at sfot, which pulls 5.8 G's. The defunct Moonsault Scramble at Fuji-Q Highland, which pulls 6.2 G's and the first coaster to reach 200ft, what replaced it is Do-Dodonpa, the fastest accelerating coaster, which goes 0-172 kmh in 1.8 seconds. El Toro at sfgaf with crazy ejectoe airtime. And Fluch von Novgorod at Hansa Park, also with a crazy accelaration.
1. What is your (you and Cupcakes & Coasters) home parks? 2. Another coaster that stands out (this one in a very odd way) is . . Desperado. Arrow Hyper Coaster at Buffalo Bill's Hotel & Casino. Odd in that . . . well it's a roller coaster in the middle of the desert (Primm, Nevada; near the Nevada-California state line)
you werent allowed to take your phones or wallets into the queue, you had to locker them. they just added them. and idk about the bruises on the legs, havent heard anything about that
INT305 is a beast, took me by surprise. Luckily park was empty that day and we rode about 4 times before moving on As for steel vengance....ho-lee-phuk, that thing was intense. Most coasters you can see what's coming and barce for it of get a feel for the tracks flow, not this coaster, it was pure intensity non stop from first drop to station brakes. 10/10. Best I've ever ridden and I've been on nearly 100 diff coasters in my life. With intimidator 305 in 2nd, maverick in 3rd, aplengeist 4th, flight of fear in 5th
I rode Steel Phantom, Drachen Fire, Son of Beast, and I'm glad those rides are gone. I got to ride Intimidator 305 after they put the trim brakes on and it was still pretty intense. Even after the modified turn the following year, I still gray out every time :)
Son of Beast was a brutal roller coaster....I rode it when I was 16 and when the loop was still there.....I couldn't wait to get off! First and last time I ever rode it!
Maverick at Cedar Point would be on this list probably if it had the heartline roll. If you guys didn't know look it up. It originally had a 3rd inversion very small and forceful along the water. It was removed opening year due to too much intensity or stress on the trains.
This is a really good concept of what you're doing here, reminds me of when travel channel used to do stuff like this with roller coasters, but now I can just watch yours lol, great video, and keep up the good work!
Steel Phantom had guaranteed grey out in the last row. I was in high school then and only rode it a few times a visit due to the neck pain! Phantoms revenge is amazing. Kennywood is my home park.
It is awesome imo. When ur on the top of the 2nd hill, before the big drop through the Thunderbolt, you look out over the river valley and gives the illusion the drop is huge!
Intimidator 305 kicked me in the ass. I didn't gray out, I fucking PASSED out both times I rode it, years apart. All the while my chest was borderline having a fucking heart attack. Kennywood is my home park, so I got very excited when I saw you touched up on Steel Phantom and Phantom's Revenge.
@@ScrewyLoops I was lucky enough to ride Phantom's Revenge during a road trip 2 years ago and loved it! The original Phantom would have been great to experience too!
I live in Pittsburgh and grew up in what I think was the the most perfect spot for coasters at the time. I always felt like Kennywood is the most random amusement park to be placed anywhere. I loved riding the steel phantom when I was young and my family always loved to go to places like Cedar Point and King's Island (I actually rode Son of Beast as well when it had the loop, my brother and I loved it because there was ZERO line on a summer day and we just kept rolling... the rose bowl was honestly one of the most savage elements I've ever ridden on and we LOVED IT..). If you ever get the chance to come to Pittsburgh, @backseat blackout, I'd strongly recommend you visit Kennywood still because that second drop really doesn't end... especially now. And with Steel Curtain, it's definitely a spot to hit up before going to Cedar Point.
The coaster that took it too far to me is definitely the Vekoma SLC. Inverted coasters can be fun, as seen in almost every B&M inverter, but Vekoma did a lot wrong with their SLCs. Bad tracks (licensed by Arrow), bad track design where they almost completely wiped out the most fun part of roller coasters (air time) and really bad over-the-shoulder restraints, where the padding is almost useless.
8:20 American english is my second language but it's really fluid, after repeating this part many times, please tell me I am not the only one who could understand
Greying out is when you 'see stars' usually from high intensity rides or simply standing up very quickly sometimes 🙂 feels like you're going to pass out 👍
I don’t remember any trim breaks on the first drop of I305... I’ve been there 3 times and ridden it each time and there were no trims on the first hill
The trims were eventually removed after the re-building of the first turn and hill. The trims didn´t prevent riders from greying-out because they high g-forces would last even longer.
I'm not surprised that Arrow made this list. If you guys wanted to add another Kings park roller coaster that went too far, that would be Kings Dominion, Anaconda by Arrow. Of course it doesn't look too intense, but it sure as heck hurts! I remember waking up the next morning and mom asking me how did you get that bruise on your face? I told her it was from Anaconda when it went through the first corkscrew my head was slammed off the restraint.
Great video, you two are quite an entertaining pair. Wow, those blue eyes are stunningly beautiful. By the way, Intimidator 305 does not feature a helix. Just because a track crosses over or under itself does not make it a helix. It has to be 360 degrees (a full circle or more) to be a helix. However, if it is between 200 to 359 degrees it can be considered a spiral or "Carousel Turn".
Me and my mate saw you today 30 march we were behind you in swarms que I was gunna say hi but didnt know if you were filming and didnt want to distract
There are sequels better than the original: the empire strikes back, the deathly hallows part 2, the dark knight, aliens terminator 2 an every marvel movie after the Incredible Hulk, other than Thor the dark world
Loved the son of beast I rode it in his heyday before it had its issues and yes it still had the loop! It was amazing even though it was sometimes extremely frightening and had his issues especially in later years of downtime!
The worst thing most people complained about was it was somewhat of a rough ride, that’s just the nature of the beast! This year is a 40th anniversary year for the original beasts and I am sure that kings island will be celebrating a lot!
So fab how this video turned out thanks so much for inviting me on! ☺️

Juul Is Cool there are trims but it’s unnoticeable
The trims were eventually removed after the re-building of the first turn and hill. The trims didn´t prevent riders from greying-out because they high g-forces would last even longer.
I'm soooooo hyped for Untamed😌
Looks so good!
I'm not surprised that Arrow made this list. If you guys wanted to add another Kings park roller coaster that went too far, that would be Kings Dominion, Anaconda by Arrow. Of course it doesn't look too intense, but it sure as heck hurts! I remember waking up the next morning and mom asking me how did you get that bruise on your face? I told her it was from Anaconda when it went through the first corkscrew my head was slammed off the restraint.

I like fun Coasters. Not one's that give me panic attacks or make me feel like I'm gonna die.
I'm pretty sure if it was 90 degrees the car's wheels wouldn't stay on the track. I don't know, I'm not a rollercoaster nerd
Kings Island opened in 1972 beast opened in 1978.
beast opened in 1979

Stealth is the same launch acceleration and speed
Well, the helicopter wheels can handle more heat than normal ones... If they didn't use them the regular wheels would melt.

Steel vengance is absolutely AMAZING! Take it from a native ohioan and cedar fair pass holder. Cedar point is on point 24/7
@@ScrewyLoops if you ever need someone to show you around and get you on the best coasters im your gal!
Top notch lads (and Jordan)!
Is cupcakes and coasters work at Thorpe park
The smiler took it to far by smashing a record
There are sequels better than the original: the empire strikes back, the deathly hallows part 2, the dark knight, aliens terminator 2 an every marvel movie after the Incredible Hulk, other than Thor the dark world
Honestly I think steel Vengeance was great but the last 10-15 seconds really feels like overkill
Loved the son of beast I rode it in his heyday before it had its issues and yes it still had the loop! It was amazing even though it was sometimes extremely frightening and had his issues especially in later years of downtime!
The worst thing most people complained about was it was somewhat of a rough ride, that’s just the nature of the beast! This year is a 40th anniversary year for the original beasts and I am sure that kings island will be celebrating a lot!
fab video chris! I especially love the way you say tower of terror. TERR UV TERR
