  1. It's when, due to high G forces, the blood is pulled to your feet meaning less will manage to get to your brain. This will affect you in several stages: on the first one (greyout) everything you see becomes grey/black and white and your sight loses "definition"; second one (tunnel vision) you lose peripheral vision meaning you'll only see straight forward; third stage (blackout) you just stop seeing; on the last stage you pass out, also called G LOC (gravity induced loss of consciousness). This might seem dangerous but you would need to experience G LOC for several minutes to be harmed while on roller coasters you may only grey or blackout for a few seconds, so it's perfectly fine.
  2. ^You're probably right. It's just that I liked the fact that they sicked to "more extreme" coasters (well, at least once they did )
  3. Big spin
  4. Really? During the actual zero-g? That's interesting...
  5. That's what I thought. I have to admit I'm slightly disappointed that B&M has also gone the family coaster way, given that they were one of the few manufactures that only built big adult rides.
  6. ^Wow! Not that much left, now. I wonder when they will complete the thing.
  7. ^Probably they would as they are reasonably wider. Maybe on some rides they wouldn't but I'm guessing it would be a problem for most of them. I actually wouldn't like them to do that at all.
  8. Chocolate
  9. I get the feeling that it would be nearly impossible to have a beyond vertical drop without using a little bit of steel, but then many wood coasters do.
  10. It does look rounder than their older ones, though. A bit like Phaethon in Korea.
  11. TWISTYYYYY
  12. Goliath Raptor or Montu?
  13. ^I'm still waiting for that B&M to come....
  14. The original concept art is amazing for this. I really kind of wish this was the final design. Wow that truly looks amazing! It would have been awesome if someone had built something like that!
  15. Maybe, who knows. We'll see how well the LSM in turkey does. But, when you say maverick style, do you mean a blitz coaster like that one and Ispeed or a terrain ride?
  16. ^Like someone here as already mentioned, they must have felt that they should "update" them in some way given that they have been the same since 1992 even though I thought they were just fine.
  17. SFMM is not hot enough in the summertime and has too much shade. There's too much free clean oxygen at the park, they are cutting down trees and they will be charging for extra O2. Don't give them ideas!
  18. ^They have to be wider. These new restraints occupy a bit more space, laterally.
  19. Who knows... I still have a little bit of hope on this one.
  20. ^haha. That's what I thought too.
