^^Maybe because it's a fairly popular ride with a not so great capacity. It does sound odd to have two drop towers in the park but at least HK still has different seating options.
^That would be sweet!
Oh, that's unfortunate . . . . I was planning a trip on spring/summer 2016 but I guess I'll have to change that.
^Given the approximate speed announced (less than 200 km/h) that would be impossible unless they're preparing a massive surprise which sounds too good to be true. That would be awesome,though!
I'm definitely not complaining that it hits the brakes too fast, just saying that I find it rather surprising as the ride is so long (I would expect it to lose more energy throughout the course)
Just wishful thinking...
Am I the only one who thinks this sounds too fast? Even if that's the speed it'll hit before climbing to the brakes (as I think hitting the brakes at 55 mph is definitely not the case) that's still quite a lot!
A lot of coasters hit the brakes faster than that...... Dragster and Kingda Ka are prime examples.
I know. But those are an exception. I mean, that's faster than BTR's top speed! And in the animation it doesn't look that fast.

I just keep thinking the trains look very odd! (tall and thin). Anyway, it's nice that it (seemed) to have some pops of air as most B&M standups don't.
^Oh, I see . . . . . .
Quite bizarre, but yes, I guess it would provide a "fun" painless death. But doesn't it a fair bit of time under massive Gs for someone to die? I wonder how long the ride would be.
