What’s going on guys and welcome back to the channel! When I was a kid I was OBSESSED with Magic Mountain, and I mean obsessed. I spent hours researching the rides there every day and even recreated the ENTIRE park in RCT3 before advancing to programs like NoLimits2 and Planet Coaster. That said, my obsession only grew as I went, and one day I attempted a now defunct ride that at the time, I had no idea would go down as one of the most infamous attractions of all time. Though I do have the odd opinion of actually enjoying said ride, maybe because I was smaller at the time, my fascination peaked again with it this week, and I wanted to know more about its model type and how it came to be. So with that said, I think you’ll actually find this video pretty informative and entertaining. So what is it? And where did it come from? This is the story, of Intamin Amusement Rides’ 4th dimensional roller coaster, Zac Spin! 💥🎢

Prior to covid, PNE Playland was planning a massive expansion. The 2016 early concept proposal had a Zac Spin as a part of its plan, and then a 2020 scale model clearly featured a 25m Zac Spin. While the park expansion is still coming, it appears the original plans have pretty much been scrapped. But it's fun to think about how Canada nearly got their own Zac Spin.

Green lantern is one of my all time favorite coasters believe it or not. And I’ve been on hundreds of coasters. It was the most intense, craziest, stomach dropping ride ever. Nobody could ride that thing and keep a straight face or get into the brakes without thinking “holy crap”. Yes it was painful, but it didn’t bother me. I was always dying laughing on it. May it rest in peace.

@dylans_vibeschannel Год назад

No, green lantern is so painful. I went on it when I was young and I felt like I had my back broken.

@coolcat7029 Год назад

You're lucky you didn't get stuck upside down.

@Thelightning1out 4 месяца назад

⁠⁠⁠@@coolcat7029I did get stuck upside down once I was laughing like a maniac because the people behind me were absolutely freaked out, I was extremely happy I got a ride where I was stuck upside down in the station

@ThrillsofColdplay Год назад

It’s funny that the prototype version in the video actually had a launch like in rct3

@elevatoralarmcoasterandarc1214 Год назад

We all agree.

@vincugames Год назад

Rct's version was inspired of this so it makes scence

@Coaster101 Год назад

There's three main reasons why the S&S 4D free flys are better than the Intamin zac spins: 1. The RMC Iron Horse track is much more precise than a traditional steel tube coaster - something that takes on even more importance when you’re creating wide trains with seats sticking out away from the center of gravity. 2. The axis of rotation for the flipping motion. 3. One of the problems with the free spinning Zac Spins is the spinning is totally dependent on weight distribution, and that can sometimes lead to bad rides. The magnets on free flys prevent this problem from happening.

This is why I love that you watch my videos! So interesting and insightful!

@lampshades120 Год назад

I had to slam my neck into the restraint in order to avoid extreme pain, and I remember having a red mark on my neck lolol

@Topitopi14 Год назад

Inferno still operating now a days. I have always like It very much (the only complain about It would be the duration of the cicle) so its weird to me to hear the people complaining about the modelo that much.

@michael7054 3 месяца назад

Great video! These are interesting coasters! I enjoyed watching!

@SkullysPlace Год назад

Gurnee IL / Six Flags Great America still has their version with The Joker as I went on it last year in 2022. I will say the older i get the wilder the rides get and at 50 yrs old The Joker mentally had thrown me for a loop as I was grabbing my pockets worried about my cell phone and wallet trying to escape as we flipped un controllably but controlled at the same time. It was a different type of fear factor I wasn’t used to but I did enjoy it!

@singlerailindustries1763 Год назад

2:01 Sad That There's No Footage Of It Operating. Would Have Loved To See The How It Looks With The Launch.

@user-yr3gh6kv1u Год назад

An amusement park in CHINA just bought another Intamin Zac Spin, hope there will be some improvement probably 😢

@Benthetrainkid Год назад

You forgot to mention Intamin's Zacspin 2.0 concept

@abelmusch8786 Год назад

Inferno is operating :) rode it a few years back. Its not too bad

@mrspanda5479 Год назад

Yes, I just rode Inferno in june 2022 and it actually is quite fun

@kevinoneal6325 Год назад

Rode Green Lantern at Magic Mountain, hated it!

@comenting3207 Год назад

I thought you were also going to talk about the LSM on the prototype

@pyrobeats5355 Год назад

i have ridden kirnu a few years ago dont remember it that good but it def was a positive experience

@Rantasalmi47 2 месяца назад

Kirnu is my favorite roller coaster

@wheres_nathan2295 Год назад

I road inferno at terra mitica last year, I don’t mind them to be honest!

@Yoshimitsu4prez Год назад

It took me way too long what you meant by the park name in the intro lol

@yooperfamily Год назад

We rode "Batman: The ride" at Six Flags Fiesta in San Antonio, TX. Got to ride it in 2020, during covid time, so not many people in the park, yay for us! Not gonna lie, it was a bit painful, but definitely different than any other coaster i have ridden before. Had no idea which direction i was facing through the whole ride.

@jonny-b4954 Год назад

I was there during Covid and Over Texas in Dec 2020 too. Haha. We figured, fuck it, we're going on vacation. Sanitized after every ride and all that stupid stuff. But I didn't risk getting on Batman. Didn't want to get sick and ruin the rest of my only day there so passed on it. Got on everything but that and Superman though. Wasn't that busy. But was apparently busiest day since Covid had began according to an employee at the entrance. Line was WAY out into the parking lot so we thought it was going to be a rough day. But only 20-30 minute waits. Which I can deal with. Plus, I had fast pass anyways.

@arikthenot-so-redasericthe1838 Год назад

Looks a lot like Tumbili at Kings Dominion, which coaster has the dubious distinction of being far more interesting to look at than to ride. Everything in the park was basically a walk-on but this and Flight of Fear (which is a great deal of fun), and one ride was enough for us. 45 minutes for 30 seconds of ride time. Why endure that when we could ride I-305 or Twisted Timbers again and again and again in that same amount of time?

@Arockpromoter Год назад

Nice dude

@ronvance Год назад

I rode Green Lantern and hated it.

@Watercoasting Год назад

What about Nigeria The mega coster looks fire thare

@askjeevescosby2928 Год назад

It should have gone to Michigan's adventure put it next to Zack zoomer and name it Zack's Spin. Also why the hell did they even buy a zakspin when they had x2 which was a much larger and better version.

@Zach-Zach Год назад

I mean the park has 2 premier launch roller coasters (skyrocket 3 I believe) as well as 2 RMC models (raptor and Ibox). The park has some pretty similar experiences lol

@CoasterB Год назад

I'm one of very few that actually enjoyed Green lantern.....

@askjeevescosby2928 Год назад

What I don't get is they could have changed the vehicles and saved the ride. If they just switched the point where the car rotates to the center it would have been far smoother.

@BrysonYinglingUKR Месяц назад

Does anybody know anything about where Vipere is going (or if it's not moving anywhere) since it's no longer going to La Ronde?

@turbojeremy13 Год назад

Green lantern was the worst roller coast I have ever been on

@triple7marc Год назад

It was really only Green Lantern that was awful lol

@neville1311 Год назад

I've been on Insane at Gröna Lund andyes it is rough and painful, but I still enjoyed it. I rode it in 2019 so it had had a few years on its back but I honestly came out fine and rode it multiple times that day.

@elevatoralarmcoasterandarc1214 Год назад

It's still pretty good.

@akuankka321876 Год назад

I feel like Linnanmäki's Kirnu (Intamin's zac-spin prototype) is a lot smoother and better experience compared to Insane and otjer zac-spins in the world, even though Kirnu is a very short ride. Kirnu got later cloned and then came green lattern and Insane, which are very rough rides. Kirnu however is not a rough ride, and I very much enjoy it.
