If Colossus DIDN'T go UPSIDE DOWN??

Colossus at Thorpe Park opened back in 2002 and broke the record for the most amount of inversions on a rollercoaster, going upside down a whopping 10 times, 4 of which are in a row! Including barrel rolls, corkscrews and more, this ride is sure based on those upside down moments! But what if it were based solely on airtime?? And what if Colossus DIDN'T go UPSIDE DOWN?? Find out what it'd look like!

Hear me out on another challenge, Galactica as a sit down coaster 👀

[@Silacide]

This is a pretty fun concept, you could also make something like "What if it HAS inversions?" or "What if the inversions were SWAPPED?" once you've done a lot of these

[@DigitalDan]

I will definitely consider it for future! Thank you for the suggestion! 🙏🏻

[@themeparksjasper6911]

Silas, we meet again

@enzodiscoverymoonlight this sounds evil 😂😂😂😂😂😂

Dan: "If it didn't go upside down" me: "removing the Inversions makes it ten times worse 😢."

[@dyoshitimo932]

Lol

[@Gfryj]

Best rollercoaster pun

[@sr.chi7741]

It would have solid airtime tho

[@B-R098]

@@sr.chi7741 that is very true

[@justarandomhuman8784]

Here me out... Air time

[@AbbieWillett]

It actually looks really fun without the inversions 😂

[@thrillsandtheming]

Actually looks smoother than the ride does in real life!

[@Dan-uy2ld]

The first airtime hill would be a massive improvement. I like the turn around as well in the section before you go into the corkscrews. I probably would've gone for a top hat instead of the Kobra roll

[@RIdersfan232]

I would love to see you turn an innocent rollercoaster into major thrill ride 😂

That cat in the background is the best.

To be honest, this is such a cool idea. I would actually love to see this ride one day as I step into a theme park. I'd definitely go on it as much as I could.

[@l0wh1n]

Why do I feel like this would actually be fun? Awesome Video Dan, Phenomenal Content as usual!

[@DigitalDan]

Thanks so much!!

[@steveelvins2628]

Love your videos Dan. How about doing a video, what if the original Nemisis wasn't inverted?

[@DigitalDan]

Thank you! Will definitely consider it!

Now You GOT TO DO DRAGON KHAN!

You're doing God's work here man. I would love if this was real.

🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@totaldramasomething_]

I’ve never actually been on collosus, it looks good though but it does have heaps of inversions (first)

[@dill.keegs11]

it runs so smoothly, my planco coasters look like glorified pinball machines

[@lewisjohnson8708]

I love the concept

[@Texasrailfan9021]

Man this is Awsome!

[@urthvox]

Mate this is a brilliant idea.

[@BritishBigM]

You should do the Big One but with inversions

[@bennickss]

Turned from a multi looper to a weird megalite with a non inverting cobra roll

[@jamie9164]

Hi Dan I sure you today so happy to see you I love all your videos

[@justree150]

I think maybe do a ride that has no inversions like the big one or hagrids and make it break the record

[@Interfacement]

i love your cat in the background

[@twistedcoasters1533]

Now you need to do ‘if it went upside down’. Maybe ‘big one?’. Or ‘RUNAWAY MINE TRAIN’?

[@mmaaaaaxxx]

And the supports also don't change so you just fall out the car when it loops

[@Furyman325]

​@Max huh?

[@tayo0404]

I can already feel the way my stomach would cry

[@magicalhikari5859]

Now you need to turn the Big One into an inverting coaster

[@Untamed_Mana]

Dan you should do if stealth did go upside down!!! that would be really cool, something like stormrunner at hersheypark, but better because race lights. still love the vids!!

[@urbex_coasters]

Do Steel Curtain or Takabisha! Curious how those would look.

[@EmmerlieLouisa]

loving nina in the background 🐈‍⬛

[@SmileAlways7144]

This looks fun

[@coastersunited2]

I wonder if Ollies phone never got lost if Colossus didn’t invert 💔

[@coasternamegenerator5611]

Only thing that bothers me is the laterals. Otherwise I’d kill to ride this. Honestly just swap the cobra roll with a wave turn and this would do wonders

[@Blizedly]

I think this is Thorpe park’s new idea for the retrack

[@mr.lazyboi6097]

Dan PLEASE... hear me out. Flying Fish 14 inversions. Plz?

[@rainbowsandunicorns9196]

Brilliant!!!!

[@RollerCoasterBeth]

What if this is what Thorpe is actually doing? You know with this track mysteriously going 🤔🤔😂

[@DigitalDan]

I wish 😂😂

[@toainsully]

At least now, Olly won't lose his phone

[@runnerman1424]

I hope it has Kondaa's non-inverting Cobra Roll.

A random idea I guess: Building coasters with a 5k budget

Hi Dan going allton towers tomorrow 😀 love ur video ❤

Hope you had a good time!! Thank you! 🙏🏻

[@amandaschaad1775]

I was just at thorpe yesterday and the first hartline roll was ripped out for a retrack.

[@Trast.2]

video idea: if hero wasnt painfull

[@Coastersnoot]

Dan: what if colossus didn't go upside down? Me: No.

[@Jimm1799]

Why does this give me B&M surf coaster vibes?!?🏄

I’m going to Thorpe park in June. It’s. My first time going but I’m gonna try and go on the best rides

Sounds interesting

Shoutout to the cat

[@Synth_Cat]

do one for steel curtain

[@frostflake6076]

Colossus but enthusiast friendly

[@jamesferguson448]

Make steeplechase with 24 inversions

Well I wasn't expecting that to happen with my Colossus but here we are 😂😂

Ayyy haha, great recreation!!

You could try do stealth WITH inversions maybe???

What's next? Steel vengeance with no airtime?

congratulations, you invented the Mega-Lite 😂

😂😂

[@Ollie_2011]

you should make it so it has a rediculous amount of inversions pls

[@amazingcoolboy212]

Please do one for Flying Fish where you add inversions

[@coasterswithmwah]

Such a good video, I once did a reimagining of colossus as an Intamin Blitz and that was really fun! You should do this challenge but with a b and m invert like Nemesis or inferno! 🎢

[@DigitalDan]

Thank you!! I'll definitely consider that for sure!

[@jappie.]

now it is a intamin ultra light!

Next video, what if the octonauts rollercoaster DID go upsidedown

do sik next time

[@antonytsai6611]

It would be cool to see what if colossus was designed in 2023

[@amazingcoolboy212]

Just look at Flamingo Land's new coaster and you can sort of get an idea of what the track would look like. Be interesting to see how Thorpe would theme it though - Thorpe seems to be going for more heavily themed experiences these days.

[@antonytsai6611]

@@amazingcoolboy212 it’s the same layout with different banking and profiling and what I meant was if it was the same plot and 10 inversions
