These are the Worlds Craziest Roller Coaster Inversions

[@CoasterStudios]

Please note that this list is not all inclusive so of course there are some moments that did not get a mention, but we tried to include our personal favorites while also making the video too long! Hope you guys enjoy :)

[@Ultimatephaser]

i personally love the name death roll for iron gwazi, as the death roll is a way crocodiles rip prey apart.

[@VRGUY_583]

The First Coaster I Went On With An Inversion, Was Hyperspace Mountain At Disneyland Paris In 2019. Are You Now Proud of Me Going On Coasters With Inversions? Because I Been To Thorpe Park And I Like The Coasters There.

[@Maleek-lt3cg]

What about the mosasaurus roll on Velocicoaster

[@BigDude27]

I think we can all agree that Hyperia’s outer banked twist thing will be insane!

[@Aerolandaircraft]

The immelman as well.

[@mikus6088]

That barrel roll looks so cool it might be the best part of the ride.

[@archworldfamilygaming8761]

so true tho thorpe park going crazy

[@sammyg7905]

Looks like a bigger version of taiga’s first inversion

[@secretweapongurnz]

Yeah, the stall loop as well will be insane

[@Mav_and_Dads_Coaster_Madness]

Love it or hate it, the Cobra Roll on Alpengeist deserves some respect for its intensity.

[@ot.bot.249]

[@Scxrpionz]

@@HugeRMCFanBoY-bx3od Why Are You Talking Like This

[@ot.bot.249]

alpengeist is in my top 5 such an intense and insane ride

[@Thelightning1out]

Most intense part on Alpengeist is the entrance into the midcourse where it essentially tries to snap your neck

[@ot.bot.249]

@Goliath146 I think the cobra roll is the most intense part but man that midcourse entry is also insane

[@JacobVaughn-i1x]

The vertical loop on full throttle is awesome

[@inthesky3833]

Maaaaaaan BGT is literally the king of inversions. Montu, Gwazi, and can’t forget Kumba’s zero-g roll.

[@thrillwarrior]

Kumba’s G-roll 🤯

[@HugeRMCFanBoY-bx3od]

Kumba's hell roll*

[@metallicnole4514]

Kumba's inversions have always made me nauseous. I dunno what it is about that particular old school b&m that makes me feel all wobbly when I got off.

[@Gliese710_]

Kumbas roll is more like a -1g roll

[@offrails]

And for many of us, that single vertical loop on Scorpion was the first inversion that many Floridians got to experience, myself included. RIP

[@mr.noride7226]

The name “Death-Roll” for that inversion makes a lot of sense because Iron Gwazi is themed to alligators which latch onto their prey with their powerful jaws and roll to try and tear them apart which is known as the “Death-Roll”.

[@HugeRMCFanBoY-bx3od]

I thought this was well known.

[@mr.noride7226]

@@HugeRMCFanBoY-bx3od Yeah, but it’s something else to talk about when it comes to that inversion and what it’s referencing that wasn’t mentioned when they were talking the name of the inversion.

The off ride footage of Voltron at Europa Park looks like it’ll have some fantastic inversions when it opens

[@clubstep8244]

The Inverted launch and the Stall are very hangtime heavy, especially the Stall is really good

[@justiceleaguebattleformetr9239]

Some of my favorite inversions that they didn’t mention are Maxx Force’s heartline roll Mr. Freeze’s inverted top hat Hulk’s zero-g roll, cobra roll and first corkscrew Mystery Mine’s heartline roll and dive loop Thunderbird and X-Flight’s in-line twists Steel Vengeance’s first inversion

[@justiceleaguebattleformetr9239]

@@HugeRMCFanBoY-bx3od that’s the 2nd inversion on the ride.

[@HugeRMCFanBoY-bx3od]

@justiceleaguebattleformetr9239 sorry I got mixed up I think its just a zero G roll I've heard Alot of people call it that

[@collegeluvr]

Yes to Thunderbird! That has that great finale!

[@TNpyro-nk8ky]

my home park is dollywood and i can agree the second drop and two heartline to dive loop is amazing!

[@danielwalker875]

My favorite has to be the lagoon roll. When you switch the way your rotating it's such a unique combo of whip and hang time.

[@AccusedJ]

I know it never open to the public, but I want to give a shout out to the heartline roll on Maverick

[@rogerbordine7]

Flying Snake Dive is my single favorite element on any roller coaster. It’s just so unique and it’s why Storm Runner is my favorite ride at Hershey. SO good.

[@galliumg8483]

Steel vengeances second inversion was insane to me and my favorite before time traveler and the Florida ones

[@minasotah]

Best erupting inversion R.I.P. VOLCANO 🌋

[@TimeWithRigo]

True 😢

[@coasterqueen283]

These are amazing! Only thing I would add is the Lagoon roll

[@user-sp7ie2nh8t]

YUUUP

[@zacg_]

I LOVE the Schwarzkopf inverted loops. Yes, inverted loops are common but the ones on Schwarzkopf loopers (especially the more aggressive ones and the back to back loops) feel so cool. The positive forces just seem unnatural, especially while you're inverted. My first inversion was the loop on Revolution and as a kid it really blew me away that going upside would feel like that. I didn't know at that time that that bizarre sensation was specific to that loop type. My favorite is the back to back sequence on Shockwave.

[@FearTheWeird300]

I like the drop that builds up to it.

[@ceejw]

I wouldn't say they're the craziest inversions but two favorites that come to mind are the zero g roll out of the lift hill of Incredible Hulk and the dueling loops on Dueling Dragons. Being on the front row of Dueling Dragons when the other train is coming right at you before you pull up into the loop at the last second might be my favorite coaster element of all time and I hope someday we get another coaster that replicates it.

[@metallicnole4514]

People always say how night rides are so epic. But something rarer and more underrated are rain rides. I did a ride on hulk in the rain and it was way more intense than normal

[@mikus6088]

I love the corkscrew on Flight of fear, Double loop on Vortex at kings island was insane, and the outerbank into a barrel roll drop on hyperia looks crazy too.

[@MattGames7734]

Steel Curtain & Alpengeist deserved a spot here

[@RockyTopInflatables]

My favorites in no particular order are: The Mosasaurus Roll, Flying Snake Dive, Banana Roll on Steel Curtain, Pretzel knot on Banshee, Batwing on Montu and Afterburn, Cobra Roll on Kumba, the sequence of the first two inversions on Twisted Cyclone, barrel roll drop on Twsited Timbers, inline twist on Banshee, and the arcade roll/Raven Truss dive on Arie Force one. I love a lot of different categories of inversions, but those are my personal favorites. Still yet to experience the death roll, but hopefully that’ll change this year or next year.

[@jacksonhahn]

The in-line twist on banshee at the end is great that’s my home park. The mosasaurus roll has to be the best inversion I think I’ve experienced though

[@HugeRMCFanBoY-bx3od]

My Favorite Out Of These Is The Flying Snake Dive

[@porcelainthunder2213]

The only inversion that got me to almost soil myself was the Drachen Fire dive drop on Steel Curtain at Kennywood. It’s terrifying all the way from the parking lot. As far as for the GP, it’s always fun seeing them on the Premier Skyrocket IIs when the are creeping through the in-line twist. It’s sooooo slow you get full weight transfer onto the restraints.

[@samraymond4464]

So fun fact about those 2 on the smiler (or, 4, technically). It's actually officially called the "Staffordshire Knot", aptly names as Alton Towers is located in Staffordshire, and looks alot like the knot itself!

[@mr.flaxonwaxon9283]

The interlocking loops on Loch Ness Monster at Busch Gardens Williamsburg (when 2 two coasters are timed to go through at the same time) are classic to me

[@danielmassoud4490]

The slow inline twist on banshee, the ending double barrel on mystery mine, and the final corkscrew on flight of fear are three of my favs!

[@TheAlternateYT]

I always feel sad when people talk about the mosasaurus roll on Velocicoaster without mentioning the very similar yet faster version on Maxx Force. You absolutely fly through that one and get some insane whip which I actually prefer over the Velocicoaster inversion. Also, a good in line twist always delivers like on Banshee, Thunderbird or the one on Sandy's Blasting Bronco!

[@MrMAURICE200]

The batwing on Afterburn is amazing and the loop on Nighthawk gets me all the time.

[@CoasterCrafter662]

RTH's final inversion is called a double inverting dive loop ;) it's indeed a bit similar to a flying snake dive, but without the airtime pop moment at the beginning. I'm happy to see it in your selection, this element is absolutely phenomenal (probably my favourite moment in any rollercoaster).

[@Lloyd00]

You wanna talk about hang time? The enormous vertical loop on Full Throttle is crazy. feels like you're hanging forever!

[@OklahomaCoasterFan]

That's one that I thought of. Best hangtime, and such a beautiful upsidedown view of the mountains.

[@itsmeevan027]

Yes and yes on such an awesome view!!! All with a lap bar!!! One of my favorite inversions :)

[@mesetaplays]

Some of my favorite underrated inversions are the zero g roll on Maxx Force, the downward barrel roll on Steel Hawg, the elongated loop on Junker at powerland, and the inverted top hat on Mr Freeze. The latter probably being in my top 5 inversions ever.

[@kinderscoasters]

Sushi roll, California roll 😂

[@TheNinjaDC]

Banshee's pretzel knot followed by a vertical loop is a continuous onslaught of Gs.

[@coasterworld44]

The inline twist on banshee is 👌🏻

[@will4486]

The stall on Twisted Colossus when it’s dueling remains my favorite, just nothing like being stalled and seeing another train running beneath you

[@MrLProductionsOfficial]

SMILER MENTION 😃 I love the interlocked Batwing and Cobra Roll, it looks so good. I love the way the Butterfly Roll hits too and the first Heartline Roll can be very disorientating on your first ride, it's so cool!

[@jtbowman132]

I’m not the biggest fan of the ride but the ending of Mystery Mine is always a surprise. You whip through the first inversion and then get wild hang time on the dive loop

[@collegeluvr]

Agree!

[@MichaelMyers3000]

For me, I absolutely love the flying snake dive on storm runner. Probably my fav inversion on a coaster I’ve been on. For me, I put it over the (dinosaur - because I can’t spell it) roll on velocicoaster

[@coyote_bravo2723]

My favorite is the 2nd vertical loop on desert storm. One of the goofiest loops ever made but it’s so fun and the intensity and profiling are something else.

[@eemelimeemeli]

One of my favorite inversions is the upside down part at the end of the vertical lift on Maurer Skyloops. The hangtime is insane

[@Fleetblase07]

0:22 “we love inversions” and got Taylor wearing a smiler shirt hahah it’s amazing

[@collegeluvr]

Drachen Fire Dive Drop on Steel Curtain is a pretty cool inversion. (When the ride is operational)

[@cashbros6373]

The last inversion on thunderbird is so good😊

[@1031_Klown]

Hands down that Pretzel loop on Tatsu in the very back row is the absolute best. The feeling is just intense and out of this world.

[@bdschannel4733]

The one on Untamed that you last described is an absolute masterpiece. I remember, when I first rode it and this element is pretty much in the beginning of the ride, shortly after the first drop, but as soon as I went through it, I was like "This is f***ing GENIUS!". This was the moment I realized I am actually riding an absolute masterpiece af a rollercoaster. This ride is just so unique and the pacing is great, without actually being very tall or very fast.

[@alantrotter2077]

You hit most of the ones I thought would be on the list, but I thought the Lagoon roll on Cannibal would have made the list and possibly the heaven roll on Iron Rattler. Glad you added the ones on Untamed and The second one on Ride to Happiness as they were less obvious

[@berontil]

Full throttle at magic mt Big loop is pretty unique for a vertical loop, stalls out pretty good.

[@Westkid3057]

I recently rode Vortex at Carowinds and that corkscrew was kinda insane. Imo the best inversion in that park was the cutback on Copperhead

[@mr.noride7226]

When I first started getting into coasters, inversions were honestly the least intimidating part, other than Pretzel loops which freaked me out quite a bit. I would get more nervous about height and drops more than anything else.

[@urbex_coasters]

We're the opposite. I rode Skyrush before I ever rode a coaster with inversions, even though you've got a literal family coaster with an inversion next door lol. And it was Galexyland's Mindbender to get me to be ok with inversions. Not the coaster journey you expect to hear at all. And in December I finally redeemed my biggest regret dating back to 2013 when I was taken to Silver Dollar City as part of my grandparents 50th wedding anniversary when I returned to Silver Dollar City and got Outlaw Run as my 350th credit.

[@coastermania17]

The second inversion on Hyperia looks like it will be worthy of this list once it opens

[@NoahIsCool24]

I think SLC’s sidewinder should be on here lol

[@Nookster69420]

Only the one on the great norreaster at moreys piers bc the other slcs have so much headbanging that u cant enjoy they elements

[@billchief397]

Montu is the best by far...that batwing is so disorienting and the hidden inversion popping in the ground with the trenched areas in the second part ...Simply amazing.

[@coastersubie]

Special shout-out to the stall on the green side on which travels on top of the blue side's airtime hill on Twisted Colossus at Magic Mountain if you can get a ride with both trains being synchronized. Sure looks epic !

[@MillenniumForceMan]

The last inversion on ArieForce one is even better than the arcade roll, and it’s probably my favorite inversion I’ve done, it felt like what ppl say the mosasarus roll is like (mosasarus roll a bit overrated imo), anyway I swear that final inversion on AF1 pulls 10gs of airtime and 10gs of laterals at the same time, it was not at all comfortable and felt kinda dangerous tbh but I love it anyway

[@technoandrew]

“Here comes the Mako roll!!”

[@CoasterStudios]

how could we forget that one!!

[@NoahIsCool24]

Haha I remember that video

[@crooked-halo]

_Superb video!_ I'm a wood coaster guy, but I love some inversions. Y'all have good taste! _Schwartzkopf loops!_ Shock Wave's 2 loops are my favorite! The positive Gs are crushing, the loops _fast_ & fun. I _love_ having only that skinny lap bar, the loud, unique sound of those 45-year-old loops, the gray cloud creeping into my eyes, these loops are _the best!_ The first drop of Storm Chaser is bizarre & fun! I call it a "corkscrew drop." It's a perfect, zero G inversion & drop. A unique beginning of a _very powerful_ coaster! Another favorite is the ending of Outlaw Run. _Wow!_ A wicked, fast double Zero G Roll climbing out of that deep, dark wooded ravine, floating effortlessly, hauling ass, then banking perfectly into the brakes. Magnificent! It's also a dadgum _wood coaster_ for this wood coaster guy!

[@Mattia_Genuardi]

I don't have many credits as of now... not any RMC, and my only Intamin Blitz is ISpeed at Mirabilandia... However, my current favourite inversion ever is easily the Dive Loop on Karacho at Tripsdrill. If you sit on the right side of the train, you get whipped through it so hard, getting laterals and airtime, and then you get smashed with positives on the valley. Such a wild moment, and it comes near the end of the layout, you're not even going that fast, so it catches you completely off-guard, I love it.

[@megaedge2762]

My favorite loop of all time is the gigantic pretzel loop from Tatsu. It’s unreal how much gforce you get on that thing.

[@AG7-MTM]

You may not believe this, but I slightly prefer inversions over airtime, explaining why i'm not super crazy about B&M hypers like Behemoth at my home park, Canada's Wonderland (Yukon is my number 2, levi no. 1 because of the speed)

[@Southeastern_Thrills]

Hot Take: the flying snake dive is better than both the death roll and mosasaurus roll combined.

[@TNpyro-nk8ky]

agree

[@twelfthlady847]

I'm still a total roller coaster novice but I loved that slow spin near the end of Banshee.

[@brianc8459]

There are so many awesome inversions, and your list is spot on. but a few honorable mentions would be the barrel roll out of the launch on Hulk, The enormous loop on Full Throttle and the first drop on Cannibal, which has to be considered an inversion.

[@princess_sarina_aria_elysia]

I actually love the final inversions of Colossus (and presumably Sik by extension if I ever ride it) so much, the consecutive air time is so much fun and it’s what made me realise air time is the number one thing I love about coasters. Booked a trip to PortAventura to experience those zero Gs on Shamballa now!

[@maxhagenauer24]

Inversions also mix every feeling depending on the inversion. Vertical loops usually offer good positive Gs, zero G rolls and whip and laterals, slow inversions offer hangtime and sometimes airtime if you crest fast...

[@theamvlog4177]

I absolutely love the double inverting 270 degree outbanked side corner on Untamed especially when they don't put you're lapbar fully on you so you float between you're lapbar and you're seat

[@YannBK1608]

Yeah, the jojo roll on Ride To Happiness is a killer inversion, best intro to any coaster. If you know how to ride it, it just feels like an out of body experience

[@wartyfut1234]

Iron Rattler's heaven roll still feels amazing every time I ride it.

[@mcgarnagle6102]

The loop on Full Throttle is incredible.

[@Lloyd00]

I see you rockin the smiler shirt! that coaster legit had one of the best marketing campaigns ever!

[@Unga-daBungadunk]

alpengheists cobra roll is mind crushing i love it

[@scottsalas1803]

I honestly think the inversion on Steel Vengeance that feels like your going to go to the right as you rise up but then suddenly twists you down and to the left. That’s a freaky sensation. I also really like flight decks corkscrew at CGA. It starts to rotate then has the briefest stall before really whipping you around. It almost feels like arrow dynamics put a weird transition in the middle of a B&M. Speaking of weird, Tennessee Tornadoes first loop is all over the place with transitions. All of my other favorites are obvious ones already discussed. I just thought these three might be underrated.

[@johnoehler3788]

I have to say the Jo-Jo roll on Copperhead strike is my favorite invention. But that's the furthest I traveled to ride coasters.

[@MicahBlack-gl1pv]

Love the video, but I would recommend a part 2!! After looking in the comments and the reviews down here as well. And I have a suggestion, and I’m home park biased for this, but personally I have to say the first inversion on steel curtain into the first drop has to be up there. The sensation and the height of it is just unmatched on and off the ride.

[@CoasterChroniclesUK]

I think the last barrel roll on colossus thorpe park is incredible

[@reputation8383]

Great video! Nice to see some UK coasters getting some love too. I really enjoy both The Smiler and Sik.

[@gemmachaos]

The only one I'd add is the dive drops on many of the wing coasters. Usually the best part of the ride, and certainly the most eye-catching.

[@gui.frassi]

My top inversion are: 1- Heartline Roll at Cheetah Hunt 2- Immelman (Sheikra/Yukon/ Month) 3- Vertical Loop- Looping Star/Schwarzkopf 4- Any B&M Zerol G 5- Pretzel Loop - Manta

[@undisputed_54]

Mystery Mine’s heart line roll and dive loop is one of my favorites!

[@CancelHappiness]

You guys and Canobie Coaster are my two favorite coaster channels.

[@zumikeenan]

i haven't ridden many rollercoasters, but the first inversion on Hulk was so good

[@barusshka92]

Glad to se my baby Zadra here 🥹❤

[@Celatra]

these are all great. may i add in the Finnish Loop on Junker. it starts off as an airtime hill, then pulls you downwards before whipping you 180 degrees nearly halfway through

[@richey0995]

The loop on Firehawk was my favorite inversion 😢

[@ItsDannyRobbins]

You can still experience such a loop on Nighthawk at Carowinds. 🫡

[@rebekahhesketh1220]

For me, flying coasters and coasters with spinning seats are off my bucket list. I did try a flying coaster, the Superman Ultimate Flight in Six Flags, Gurnee, IL. I got a headache going through the pretzel loop. As for spinning seat rides, I can't go on a Tilt-a-Whirl without getting sick anymore (and I enjoyed that ride as a child). I'm just saying. But, I do enjoy your videos a lot! 😊

[@michaelonskis]

I think X2’s backflip airtime hill and Twisted Colossus’ stall when dueling are two of my favorites

[@noname117spore]

Iron Gwazi's death roll is way better than the Mosasaurus roll if you get it when it's warmed up. The Mosasaurus roll is crazy, sure, but man, when Iron Gwazi is hauling (or at least I think I got it when it was hauling. If it wasn't then I really want to know what that would feel like since it already didn't feel legal) it's just not comparable. The Mosasaurus roll doesn't quite feel like it's trying to kill you. I'll also put in a good word for Kumba's Zero-G. It's almost as good as the Mosasaurus roll to be frank.

[@TrainCoasterFan]

i just rode velocicoaster a couple days ago and the mosasaurus roll was absolutely insane

[@Helllomebob]

My favorite inversion is the zero g roll on skyrocket at kennywood

[@todddoolin7052]

the batwing combined with the cobra roll on the smiler actually has a name: the staffordshire knot!

[@rickycontreras2766]

Tatsu’s pretzel loop is the reason I get headaches on all rollercoasters now. Never been the same since - which sucks as an enthusiast 😭

[@halesej]

Just love you guys! 🧡

[@GrimReaper28726]

Alpengeist Cobra Roll

[@russelldheilman]

Eejanaika is like being rolled down a mountain inside a double agitation Maytag on a spin-cycle.

[@assemblyrequired7342]

I'd have to say that the most extreme inversion I've done is tied between what I call the Face-Up Sommersault on the Manta (for those of you who haven't pulled g's on your back, it's a very weird experience), but one of the craziest types of inversions I've had the privilege of experiencing wasn't on a roller coaster. The movement on a Skyscraper type ride, where you plummet straight towards the ground, only the flip head-over-heels as you pull 4gs is one of the most intense and thrilling experiences I've ever had. The best part is that the g's are so intense, they push you in your seat, enough to push back against the gravity that wants to pull you to the ground, while the 5-point harness creates that perfect balance between freedom and a snug, body-hugging restraint. I very nearly went on the Vomotron clone at Fun Spot with a former friend (she's gone no com on me), but it was unfortunately and frustratingly closed that night, and on account of not having found any other friends who like those types of rides, haven't been back since. I'm curious if the Vomotron has the high g's that it advertises, and as soon as a I have a friend, or better yet, a girlfriend who wants to go on it with me, I intend to do just that.

[@ant_coaster_cal5548]

I really loved this video. Good job Taylor and Sarah Love you both so much and I definitely agree with the mosasaurs roll being the best inversion. And I love the death roll too. You guys should really make another video talking about the best first drops on rollers that would be awesome. And I guarantee Skyrush number one lmao

[@DBI2000]

Back row kingda ka when it does that 270 degree twist... though not technically an inversion... that combo of ejector up and over the top directly into a falling twist when you are already out of your seat. That was the single most insane moment of my life on a coaster... next to my first ride on iron gwazi which was front frow

[@letslaunchcoaster4723]

My favorite is the mosasaurus role on Velocicoaster and death roll on Iron Gwazi

[@Leftpeg8379]

The Batwing and Cobra roll on The Siler was actually nicknamed The Staffordshire Knot because of how tangled the track is!

[@caffeinatedtrouble]

The vertical loop on Batwing at Six Flags America is INTENSE. Flying Dutchman coasters are underrated. Oh and who can forget the stand-up zero G roll on Shockwave at Drayton Manor? It's not so much crazy as just pure fun.

[@CoasterEverything]

Amazing video guys, absolutely loving the content 😊

[@MissMarilynDarling]

I still love batman at six flags magic mountain right before the end there is this double inversion that is so smoothe and so mind twisting its my favorite

There is a few cool elements on monster at adventureland in iowa. The stall being awesome and the tightened corkscrew at the end.
