Oblivion used to increase the tension of the drop by having audio at the top of the drop saying 'don't look down' until some of the locals complained.

@AirtimeThrills Год назад

Yeah i remember that. I wonder why it had to be that loud just so the people on the train could hear

@MarkRidesCoasters Год назад

Baron 1898 looks small (and it is compared to the others) but it packs a punch! And the theming really adds to it all. One of my favorite coasters actually, despite being “bad” stat-wise.

@AirtimeThrills Год назад

Yeah that theming looks awesome. Makes up for it being tiny

@diskyboy1990 Год назад

Its also the only dive coaster which takes the inversions at a somewhat quick speed, so it's actually somewhat intense, plus it's got the over the shoulder restraints, so that means airtime! Personally, I can't stand dive coasters, but Baron is the one exception to the rule. It's not groundbreaking, but it's fun for what it is, which is more than I can say about something like Valravn, that coasters just so ugly and forceless, plus it's airtime is weak due to those vest restraints.

@MarkRidesCoasters Год назад

@@diskyboy1990 I’ve done Valravn too and you know what? Give me Baron. Valravn’s height is awesome, but I just like Baron more!

@jarmoliebrand2005 Год назад

A much bigger coaster than Baron is now wouldn’t suit Efteling and the audience they seek to attract. And for the general audience, the coaster is more than intimidating enough when compared to the other rides.

My jaw hit the floor when I found out Oblivion had 11 seconds of prime ride time. There aren’t many rides shorter than something like Maxx Force or Kingda Ka in terms of duration, but that and Defiance (in terms of non-kiddie coasters) manage to do it along with a few others on this list. (I’ve never watched a POV of Oblivion)

@HugeRMCFanBoY-bx3od 4 месяца назад

@ValueNetwork Год назад

I’ve always liked the limited number of Dives I’ve been on. They’re A great crowd pleaser: a well rounded coaster for any thrill park, if they can afford it. My fave is Shiekra, America’s first dive was a home run! Honestly the coaster I would want to ride the most here is Oblivion the black hole, Yes I have it higher on my bucket list than emperor or Yukon striker. I just think the concept of a sequel coaster to Oblivion in the form of a complete and modern B&M dive is is really cool. Plus it’s Queue looks crazy, the ride may be oblivion themed but it looks like they designed the queue for the Smiler and just changed the color.

Canada's Wonderland is my home park and when they announced the world's first clean vertical loop on a dive coaster I was, confused. That confusion was because Roller Coaster Tycoon led to believe vertical loops were a common thing on this type and just had never made it to North America for unclear reasons. But as it turns out, yes, we do have the first and only loop! It may be why our trains are only 8 across instead of 10!

I have only been on two Dives. Oblivion and Griffon, Whilst Griffon is more of a complete ride than Oblivion. Oblivion is rather intense with that pullout from the drop. Whilst I would love for Alton Towers to extend Oblivion it probably wouldn't happen and does feel very one trick pony sometimes It really fascinates me that there's only 41 seconds between the bottom and top coasters, which is an incredibly small margin.

@Amusementnational 6 месяцев назад

The thing that makes me laugh, is the fact that oblivion ( at alton towers near where im based ) is the original and even now it still has a larger drop than majority of the dives nowadays. It also, has one of the most insane drops ive ever experienced! @Airtimethrills GET OVER THIS SIDE OF THE POND AND RIDE THIS BEAST!

@solskjaer1195 Год назад

Oblivion is definitely not the worst dive coaster i have done. It might be the shortest but the drop into the tunnel alone make it better than a few.on this list. Inversions on dive coasters offer very little to the overall experience either like they can on other coaster models. Its all about that drop!!

@thedude4063 Год назад

@OklahomaCoasterFan Год назад

I like getting the 2nd steep drop during the ride, so even though those mid-courses hurt the pacing, I'm alright with it in this case. Plus, all the elements are a hit on Dr Diabolical Cliffhanger, so I guess it's not about how fast you're moving; it's about what you're doing & the profiling of the elements. The dive coaster is still one of my favorite coaster types that B&M has done.

I was never a geometry expert or even a pro at math. Weirdly statistics and probabilities I’m amazing at but I’m terrible at geometry, trig, calculus, and advanced algebra. I feel stats is the most useful for daily life because you can do your own statistical analysis of a poll as long as you have enough of the variables. That way you can get the actual reliability and validity measurement. I don’t get how you figure out these numbers on your videos using the pathagreon therom since it’s used for isosceles triangles. With A(squared)+B(squared)(the two equal lengths) = C(squared) (the long side of the triangle).

@AirtimeThrills Год назад

Think of the lift hill as a right triangle, the ground being the horizontal line, the coasters height being the vertical line, and the lift hill being the hypontenuse. You know the height of the ride and the length of the ground (using google maps) so you use those factors to find the length of the lift hill

@ShockerTopper Год назад
