[@CoasterHorizons]

@@entity7339 yeah that’s part of the “makes sense” part, but if parks are willing to build b&m hypers and gigas, it’s not totally impossible

[@I_lovetruereligion]

Wel with the rmc trex that’s really the only possible chance at a 500 foot coaster, that’s actually affordable. But the amount of g force a 500 foot single rail would exceed wouldn’t be a good marketing play cause most people won’t be able to handle it, it’ll be like i305 all over again

[@joemarais7683]

I know this is a stupid way to compare, and probably not comparable to real life, but it's pretty obvious why a 400+ foot giga doesn't exist if you just compare it a game like Planet Coaster. To have a realistic coaster that actually utilizes the entire kinetic force of a 460ft drop with few trims, the coaster ends up being twice the length, double the sqft, double the in game cost and most importantly with two mid course break runs only has a bumped up capacity of 2400 tops, just 30% over Fury's theoretical max. A coaster like that just doesn't seem like it'd ever get the monetary return need to build when a park can have three plus coasters with the same land.

[@entity7339]

If we see anything, I think it'd be at energylandia, their budget is crazy big

As someone who has been on GotG: Cosmic Rewind, I would be very surprised if it actually cost them $500 million to build. Not that it’s bad, it’s just that it’s basically space mountain but it turns, and has the Guardians of the Galaxy in it.

I feel like Disney probably had to dish out tons of money for the 6 possible songs and that could be a good part of the supposed $500 million. At the same time, that makes me wonder about Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit because that has SIGNIFICANTLY more music options on it.

[@2nerdsinhell]

[@owencotter3281]

[@plazasta]

two issues to point out with the steepness record: firstly, TMNT is the official record, but from what I can tell some bootleg cheap coasters out in Italy and China seem to have steeper drops that simply were never mentioned. secondly, while the record seems relatively easy to beat nowadays, it has an upper limit. By convention, anything beyond 135° is no longer considered a drop, but rather an inversion, so once the record reaches 135° it will be impossible to beat (otherwise S&S' Screaming Squirrel model would hold the record for steepest drop. On Man-O-War and Sequoia Magic Loop, those inversions could also be seen as 179° drops) also the length record depends on whether or not alpine coasters count, cause by track length those dwarf Steel Dragon 2000. It does give an idea on how to beat the length record through more affordable means though: you'd need to build a terrain-based giga coaster

[@baileyneedham169]

I don't think the inversion record is gonna be broken soon or in the near future. Besides, you've already made a video about why inversions are falling out of style and that airtime is pretty much the new hottest thing in the industry. Most of the GP and the thoosies are pretty much BEGGING for airtime of any kind being served to them on a silver platter. With that amount of attention being focused on airtime instead of inversions, I don't think we would see any kind of inversion-based coaster being built at any park anytime soon, and inversions are just gonna be a side-dish to the whole buffet of airtime that most new coasters offer now. PS:Also I kinda find it funny that the Smiler is known to have one of the best airtime moments on any coaster in the UK, even though it's an inversion-based layout.

[@revimfadli4666]

Even inversions nowadays seem to be hangtime(aka "inverted airtime")-oriented

[@heysatan8]

@@revimfadli4666 Exactly. Or like the 'Mosasaurus' roll on Velocicoaster which ejects you out of your seat over the water. :D God I love that roll. An inversion that ejects you out of your seat instead of pushing you down into your seat? Yes please! I need more of those!

[@Yonel6969]

I agree, and even with the smiler, people generally agree the 2 airtime hills are the best parts of the ride

[@CaptainConfuzion]

When we started considering beyond vertical drops in the steepest drop record, seems like a Free Spin or Zac Spin would be the record holder.

[@FCSlim]

It may be because its more of a flat ride than a coaster for records purposes

[@ralphwaggoner208]

S&S's Screaming Squirrel model, though I've heard people say that its drop is an inversion, since it goes over 135°. So, eventually, someone will do a 135° drop. And it's likely to be Gerstlauer.

[@derekgreene5748]

I thought about that, perhaps they will still consider it a drop if it includes a pullout?

@@alaeriia01 wait which one?

[@Nick_Shank]

Airtime is definitely not subjective. You literally measure it with physics if you consider airtime any place where you experience a negative force of gravity (Gs) on the ride. The roller coaster creation software that companies use (like No Limits 2) can easily tell you how much time the coaster is experiencing negative Gs. You just need the speed of the ride over the measured length of the section that is experiencing the negative Gs and then you just add up the time it takes through all those sections.

[@samuelahoffman]

The problem is that it changes drastically depending on how the ride is running at any given moment due to weather, temperature, weight of the train, daily maintenance, etc. So an accurate measurement immediately becomes inaccurate as soon as any variable changes

[@Nick_Shank]

@@samuelahoffman I get what you're saying but my point was it could be calculated and was objective, not subjective. There is no way to realistically consider all those variable in a measurement but if all of the measurements are done in a control with no variables like the software they use to build the coasters then the comparisons between them should be valid.

[@samuelahoffman]

Ok, I think I see where you’re coming from now It would be easy to see which coaster on average has the most airtime, which I believe is where the record is coming from, however the actual ride experience would rarely be what was calculated from the simulation

[@Zyghqwyv]

airtime is not just negatives. Floater can be felt at 0.3-0 G

[@RedPandaStan]

cosmic rewind could easily have cost 500 mil. They probably paid money for developing the new system, obviously the new theming would cost something, but the new show building they made that a majority of the ride happens in is massive, one of if not the largest indoor space in wdw. That's where the money's coming from. The only thing they got to reuse was the front facade.

[@aliegg4790]

[@Soonjai]

With that "most expensive" thing it will always come down to what is included in the number. I mean, with something like Black Mamba at Phantasialand, the ride itself was 11 Million Euros, plus another 11 Million on Landscaping on Theming, but is the cost for building the small, themed plaza and souvenir shop included somewhere in the number or not? With Cosmic Rewind, if you include the cost of developing and prototyping a new Coaster Model, licensing for the music and actors used in the ride, theming for the whole building / area and stuff like that I can absolutely see the total cost of the entire project ballooning to 500 Million, especially when you take Covid related delays into consideration.

[@lordmarquaad9221]

I was on Cosmic Rewind opening day and the $500M cost is definitely believable, the absolutely crazy amount of effects and theming they managed to shove into just that one ride is INSANE (especially in the actual coaster section). If you haven't been on it I'd really have to recommend it as once you have experienced this ride you'll wonder how they could have spent more.

[@HECKproductions]

plus inflation also exists 3 million dollars cannot buy today what 3 million dollars could buy in 1993

[@Chaoshero5567]

Moment the rocks costed that much? HOLY

[@tommyguerrera]

I understand why some people think Cosmic Rewind doesn’t feel like $500mil, but: 1. It’s not just reusing an old building, that’s just the queue, they built a massive show building right behind it for the actual coaster 2. That massive building has over a mile of track making this one of the longest indoor coasters in the world, one of the longest in general too. 3. Unique ride system, the cars rotate to show you different scenes while traversing coaster speeds 4. The trains are very comfortable and accommodating 5. This ride was designed with two unload stations, two load stations, and multiple block zones to allow for many many trains to operate at once, they have at least 9 trains they can use too. 6. Paying the guardians actors

Many roller coaster records are kinda shaky. Like most people consider Steel Dragon 2000 the longest coaster in the world but Tobotronc in Andorra is an alpine coaster with a track length of 17,388 ft. Also the SBF Visa tower coaster model looks to have a steeper drop than the 121 degrees of Shellraiser but unfortunately I’m not able to find the numbers to prove that.

Longest coaster could be broken with a TwiCol style mobius coaster. American Eagle at SFGAm, when combining both tracks, is the longest coaster in the world. If there is ever a GCI or RMC that has a TwiCol style thing to go around again, and if each half is like 4,100 feet long, it’s totally feasible.

I think technically you can quantitatively measure airtime. Granted we don't have access to the G-Force readings from when they run the train with those sensors. But I'm pretty sure that in development and after construction they run the train with sensors on it to measure the G-Forces. It would be super cool if that type of information was readily available, but without it, all the airtime records are pretty weak in validity.

[@2nerdsinhell]

There's literally an app (Ride Forces) that takes very accurate measurements and shows you the forces you experience. Obviously this is difficult for rides where you have to empty your pockets, but for the other 99% of rides you can get a really clear picture.
