summerof72 Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 Most forceful coaster ever was the Steel Phantom before it was converted to Phantom's Revenge. I think the ride's Boomerang (Batwing) inversion should have been re-named Blackout. oh you bet! i used to get beat up every time i rode that....im short, so my ears were completely smashed from your head going side to side i do admit that i like Revenge better.....so far ive never held on!

kingdanny Posted September 12, 2006 Author Share Posted September 12, 2006 I heard that Superman: Ultimate Flight is pretty forceful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gnome Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 Batman The Ride is probably the most forceful coaster I've been on. Maybe Montu or one of the dueling dragon. Either could have been it. Although Kraken and Kumba were pretty intense, but not quite as much force was involved as the other coasters I just listed. Tatsu also felt very intense in the pretzle loop, but that was probably only about 3.5 - 4 g's tops, so its still not as forcefull as the other ones listed.

IwantRevenge Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 Batman: The Ride by far was almost painful to me! I rode it back row and had 2 black outs. Also Goliath at SFMM was incredably forceful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SFOGdude25 Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 ^I agree on Batman(SFOG), I grey out everytime on the loops. BTW, I noticed that Batman has gotten a little rough. The last time I rode it, I was in the front, and I had some headbanging through the last corkscrew. Has anyone else noticed this? I haven't noticed headbanging. Neither has my cousin and sister. Mabye I was moving my head at the wrong time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr_teisco_delrey Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 SOB at PKI. I did have some good greyouts on Vortex though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArrowHater Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 Propbly the boomerang at worlds of fun because on the cobra roll I blacked out fot a sec. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djrappa Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 For me I'd probably have to go with Batman... Nemesis would have to be up there too but its not quite as 'viscious' as the Batman's are Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apollo210 Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 AC well as BBW, I blacked out a the middle of the first drop to the second hill the first time and the second time I blacked out at the bottom of the first drop and all of that straight away.

FeelTheFORCE Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 On the pretzel loop on Tatsu it fells like my brain is being squashed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darien Laker Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 Mantis and any Boomerang i've been on are extremely forceful. Millennium Force had a decent amount of forces to it as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gotdane Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 I got tunnel vision once on Goliath's helix. It was half cool/half scary. The pull-out of Tatsu's Pretzel is crazy, too. B:TR is always intense. You know I think I heard that Titan was basically a Goliath clone but with the extra upward helix... If my ride was any indication the upwards helix before the MCBR is much more mean than the helix past the MCBR. I have honestly never felt uncomfortable with sustained G-forces on a coaster before that moment... It really hurt... One of the few times I've gotten off a coaster and not wanted to go again. Yup, thats what Titan was, a Goliath clone. I don't know why they added the helix, maybe to make it seem "better" or something. If you look at this pic of Goliath you can see the track just curves up, the rest of the coaster is the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingdanny Posted September 13, 2006 Author Share Posted September 13, 2006 I still don't get why Titan has an extra helix if you don't feel anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tracy Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 One night at SFOT I had to clean the smudges off my glasses where Titan pressed them against my eyes. That same night Texas Giant was almost smooth and maybe the most intense experience I’ve ever had. There was no line, so we re-rode 3 times before we were exhausted… NO pain. One trimless backseat ride on Alpie I saw my daughter go limp in the cobra roll and didn’t come out of it until the snap roll slapped her head against the OTSR…I couldn’t walk for a while because my legs and feet hurt too bad. I can’t understand why some people say Alpie is forceless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingdanny Posted September 13, 2006 Author Share Posted September 13, 2006 Silver Bullet and Hydra are probably the most forcless B&M coasters. I think Hydra was only intence in the cobra roll. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IwantRevenge Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 On the pretzel loop on Tatsu it fells like my brain is being squashed. Any Pretzal Roll for that matter. S:UF's is quite forceful and I heard Georgias pulls 6.2g's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCs221 Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 Um, no. SUF's pretzel loop probably maxes out between 3.5 and 4.5 g's, but is definately nowhere near 6.2... no clue where you got that from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ParkTrips Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 Deja Vu - say what you want about the ride, but it is INTENSE. And then it goes backwards. Boomerangs, in all their varying forms, are intense rides. Batman: The Ride - very intense, with perhaps the greatest sequence of elements ever (loop - roll - loop). You really only get one brether on the ride, on the turnaround before you dive down into the first corkscrew. Laser - TWO Schwarzkopf loops back-to-back, it can kick your ass. Throw in some forceful turns and such, and you've got a really intense, compact ride. Close calls: Magic Mountain's Goliath does have a VERY strong helix, but is really the only part of the ride that is ultra-intense. Flywheel Schwarzkopf Shuttle Loops also have a powerful launch and have the intense loop (especially backwards) but isn't really long enough for me to rank it. Much like Goliath, Tatsu's pretzel loop is also very intense, but the ride as a whole is not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scaparri Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 Titan- it's already been mentioned, those helices are nuts. I sat their and watched my 23 yr old bro pass right out as we went through the upwards helix. It was pretty crazy Raptor- this thing is just super intense all the way through. Wicked positive and lateral g's throughout the ride. Mindbender- once again, it's been mentioned, but the loops are pretty intense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NitroRider Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 KK backseat, Medusa in the back, and Nitro first drop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MSLSM Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 Batman: The Ride-The second half of the rides with the turns and corkscrews almost cause me to grey/black out which has never happened on any other coaster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CP_RULES Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 B:TR at SFStL. Pretty much any seat gives crazy forces. Its the only ride I have greyed out/gotten tunnel vision on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drewelap Posted September 15, 2006 Share Posted September 15, 2006 I would have to say that the omst forcefull experience EVER...is actually on the annoyingly cloned roller coaster Vekoma Boomerang You may be thinking.....whaaaa? But is you sit in the VERY back of the train and you go through that blasted LOOP BACKWARDS, i black out everytime....its scary but erotically fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmccalip Posted September 15, 2006 Share Posted September 15, 2006 Flywheel Schwarzkopf Shuttle Loops also have a powerful launch and have the intense loop (especially backwards) but isn't really long enough for me to rank it. Much like Goliath, Tatsu's pretzel loop is also very intense, but the ride as a whole is not. They have a weak launch. 0-60 in 6 sec... Also, the loop is more intense going through it forward.

pierced_b0i Posted September 15, 2006 Share Posted September 15, 2006 The original steel phantom..A headache was guarenteed lol.. The loop after the second drop was crazy, my neck always got snapped weird..but I loved it and miss it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
