WORLD'S FASTEST - "Falcon's Flight,” Six Flags - Intamin Exa Coaster 

I mean it's always been possible to build a ride far taller and longer than Ka. Ka is short because the hydraulic launch cost a fuck ton already too the point the ride was a questionable investment. No park in the world can afford a ride like this because the economics just don't work, the Saudi government is just completely detached from reality. I'm glad to see something like this get built but I think it's not going to end up being a success story lol

@@randomchannel-px6ho I completely agree. It's just time for kingda ka to lose the record, and potentially shut down. I live kingda Ka, but it's so rough and we could definitely get something better.

@@shaxility then pay up and replace the track lmao

@@randomchannel-px6ho exactly the saudis have more money than anyone. they could lose billions on this project and not even notice. which is why they are the only ones capable of building something like this. i genuinely don’t know if anything will ever top it

Up down. Up down. Break run. That is a “ride model”.

😂😂😂

and u disable height/speed limits

I predict *a lot* of problems

6 times the amount of LSM tech than velocicoaster 😂😅 can’t wait to see more IRL footage of this thing, still can’t believe it’s actually being built

I believe this park, if it even opens, won't stay open very long. It is part of a much larger project of ridiculous Saudi investment into outlandish megaprojects to attrict tourist so they cam diversify from oil. They are largely destined to falter, especially since a large portion of them exceed humanities actual present technology (e.g the line city thing). I'm willing to bet money these projects collectively fail to recover their investments and will eventually be shuttered.

Well the other Intamin coasters in the middle east seem to do just fine. So I think this one will do just as well. It's easy when you have unlimited money.

Not just fastest But also Tallest so We bouta Have Problems Installing Cables or elevators for the maintenance

Yep

i think its tera coaster that most people acceted as the title

I thought it was polar coaster

@@1ronEntertainment no, poler coaster may reach such heights, but then gradually drops running around a tower. This is a stand alone ride.

Tera is for coasters with a max height between 500-599ft, but FF exceeds this

​@1ron9985 That refers to a very specific proposal of a roller coaster built around a tower structure. It had been stalled in the planning stage for awhile but the company behind it actually went bankrupt pretty recently so it's 100% never happening.

there's a world outside of the US and Europe. Grow up, get out, travel more.

​@CarlosMartinez-tj9ju some of us value human dignity and Saudi Arabia isn't on many of our lists. But you wouldn't understand that from your reply. I think mommy is calling.

when u deep it which other country can afford the maintenance of this ride?

@@tayo0404In Capitalist America someone probably can (not that they would want to!). Other than that is very true, only Muslim money can buy this stuff.

Such a shame that this amazing opportunity is gonna be wasted. I feel like the only amusement park that would deserve such a coaster would be Cedar Point. Even then the fact it’s in Saudi Arabia is just a slap in the face to all enthusiasts, bc they will never be able to ride the fastest, tallest and longest coaster.

Look at the larger context of what the Saudi's are doing, it's all destined to fail it's kinda hilarious how utterly detached from reality the government is

My guess as well...

​@@billchief397son of beast vibes.

It's in the Middle East so I can see them spending the money to keep it up. Plus a formula 1 track is being planned for the area which means it could be a big tourist draw and oil money has no limits.

@@ianolexsak4054 remember ring racer billed as the world's fastest coaster it to was next to a race track but that didn't save it.

looks like someone hasn't heard of the train reveal 🫠 At IAPAA they showcased the train featuring 500mm wide wheels

The heat of the desert alone will wear them out in no time

50cm air cooled wheels are the only thing that can stop them from melting 💨🫠->🥶

Honestly given the larger context of this park being a small part of ridiculous megaprojects the Saudi's are building, I wouldn't be surprised if this was designed by a Saudi prince in planet coaster and Intamin looked at the cash they were offering and said "sure". Like checkout that city in the shape of a line or the cube as tall tall as the empire state building, there's no way actual engineers came up with that impossible shit lol

@@randomchannel-px6ho yeah I think you’re right - the design looks like something a 10 year old, who’s never seen a rollercoaster before, has made in planet coaster lol

The person who designt Taron in phantasialand germany had also designet this coaster😅

@@kkikioiii no way? Surely he just had to draw the lines where the prince told him to? Lol

yeah but it’s going like 100 mph

Exa Coaster 1 is too intense for me!

Just looking at Exa Coaster 1 makes me feel sick!

You mean, the Urbonas execution coaster?!?!?! This make me feel like “you can die just from looking at it“.

idk. the drop looks meh

I think it's the hill after it drops drom.the cliff

It's already being built so we'll see in the future what the census is.

@@ShockinSammy this coaster will be ridden for a maximum of 6 months if, IF, it ever opens

Magnets

@@AmusementInsider intamin made a new technology?!

Aliens

@@xtremecoast 😂😂

its already well under construction

​@@sixflags48no way, this layout isn't even realistic lol I'm sure Intamin's engineers are top notch, but this coaster looks like a Planet Coaster fever dream. Only massive thrillseekers will ride it and it is evident that rollbacks and valleys will be quite common in certain parts of the ride

google it, there are pictures online.@@tufab3494

@@tufab3494this thing went vertical a month or two ago

​@tufab3494 dude it's an easy search. You can literally see them building this lol.

It’s been under construction for awhile now.

You don't travel, do you? Lol. A flight to S.A. is a little over $1000 for roundtrip. A lot of people can afford to travel there. It's called saving money.

I think every company would have the balls if you'd hold enough money under their nose

@@Boofski doubt it b&m would never cause if they mess it up it ruins their record

Oil sheiks don't need to recover their investments. American companies do. It may end up, however, that a few new technologies necessary to make this coaster maintainable will trickle down to other manufacturers and become incorporated into future rides here.

It’s in construction and the trains just got revealed

it's being built as we speak

Look at updates now. It's more than half built.

Saudi-Arabien ist auf Sand gebaut. So wie Dubai.

Most of the best roller coasters in the world do not go upside down, because those are the rides that can focus on height and speed. Generally roller coasters with inversions have to keep the speed relatively low to avoid excessive forces. There are VERY few exceptions to this and those exceptions are not super highly regarded in the amusement industry.

@triple7marc I mean rollercoasters with speed are quite boring- in terms of the fact that the faster the roller coaster the more likely your body is going to get smacked all over the place and you'll be hurting afterwards or speed takes your breath away but not in a good way. At least with inversions, you can experience some very interesting feelings like a bunch of different types of G's. If anything it would've been cool for this rollercoaster to instead be a Flying train instead of sit down train because then it would A) match the name of the rollercoaster- I mean who wouldn't want to live the actual feeling of flying like a Falcon? and b) it would be a very unique roller coaster that would attract lots of people and wouldn't be considered boring with just the hills and curves and the speed. To me and I know of a bunch of others that have this thought: This is just another rollercoaster that will not stand out from the rest, even if it is known as the fastest and Highest rollercoaster. It'll still be like all the other rollercoasters that are known for just speed, height, hills, and curves. If that makes sense. Also, you do know what a flying train is in a rollercoaster, right?

@@earthdyrad "rollercoasters with speed are quite boring" Well, that's your personal preference. I personally love the sense of speed that roller coasters can have. "the faster the roller coaster the more likely your body is going to get smacked all over the place and you'll be hurting afterwards" This isn't necessarily true. It more depends on the type of restraint used. Over-the-shoulder restraints tend to cause this whiplash sensation more due to how closed off they are. A good example of this is Top Thrill Dragster and Kingda Ka - very similar rides/speeds, but Kingda Ka is noticeably rougher than Top Thrill Dragster was. This caused most people who rode both of them, me included, to rank Top Thrill Dragster higher than Kingda Ka. "or speed takes your breath away but not in a good way" This would, in practice, only apply to acceleration, not speed. And I've heard of very few people who complain abou excessive speed on a ROLLER COASTER. It is a roller coaster, after all. "It'll still be like all the other rollercoasters that are known for just speed, height, hills, and curves." Except it'll be almost 200 feet taller than the current tallest roller coaster in the world lol. It's going to be insane. "Also, you do know what a flying train is in a rollercoaster, right?" Yes, I've ridden every operating flying coaster, except one, in the US. They're fun rides but the G-forces tend to be so high that they can't really be record-breakers, which is the entire point of this roller coaster.
