It's scarier being near the end of this ride when it goes by, compared to actually being on it. It is SO LOUD. It sounds like a jet engine right above your head.
When i was 8 i screamed on virtually all the coasters. Except for this. It strangly felt forsless to me. Also lacking that stomach dropping feel. I think its the lack of airtime that bires me :P. Rode 4 more times then never wanted to rude it again.
@@Williamafton7891 It is XDXD its just personally not my ride. But I can still say for many its a great ride. I crave crazy movements and stomach dropping artime which this ride lacks but it is SUPER FAST like +100 mph.
Apparently a windstorm blew it away and it's now in the hands of a restaurant. I assume Six Flags must have been spooked by the fact that it fell in the first place, if they never asked for it back.
To anyone scared of this, trust me: I am HORRIFIED of any rollercoaster, but pushed myself to go on it anyway. The launch is definitely sudden, and feels extremely fast. Not much faster than you drive in a car normally, though. You are in shock by the unexpected speed however, but the good part is on the way back down from the drop, you barely even feel it 😭 If you are scared of heights and speed though, be warned. No matter what though, you’ll definitely have fun! Hope this helped!
I rode that thing years ago, when it had a statue of Superman facing down at you at the top (IIRC). One visit, it was late at night and the park was near empty, so they let us just ride it several times in a row.
You're correct. I miss that statue of Superman because it looks so small when you're walking under the ride and then you see it when you're close and you realize just how high up you are by how much bigger it is. I wonder when/why they took it down
I remember as a kid in the 90s being so scared of this it’s so loud walking underneath. Years later finally went on as an adult lol it’s actually not that bad. Reminds me of free fall back in the day but more speed & smoother. Cracks me back thinking back on all those teen years being scared of it 😂
No one is talking about the defunct Tower of Terror rollercoaster from Dreamworld (best park (biased but who cares), Australia. It opened a few months before this, making it the first rollercoaster to reach 100miles, (160km), and closed 2019. Without it closing this ride most likely would’ve become too expensive to maintain.
The first time in saw this in 97 it was unlike anything I’ve ever seen…and the way it sounded was like hearing a F14 takeoff it was that loud…but was too chicken shit to get on it, when i finally wanted to get on they shut it down due the cars hydroplaning on the track…so fast foward 2 years later 1999 I went again to MM with my high school band and this time that was the first ride I went on, i felt like SpongeBob when he and Patrick conquered their fear by goin on the Fiery Fist O Pain 😂😂😂
I rode this 20 years ago after it had only recently been constructed. There was a life-size Superman at the very top standing sideways to look down at you. I wonder what happened to him?
Nothing is great about this ride.. I waited about 30 mins first and only time in line and never more Disappointed. the only reason this ride is still operating is because they have lex Luther giant drop attached on the 400ft side . They should replace this ride and build the dragster coaster like they have at cedar point where it actually goes up 400ft and comes back down
No not the Jokester operators on this one too😂! "10 9 8 GOODBYE"
😂
They do the same thing on the mr freeze in St. Louis
That’s the scariest part
Bruv they do the same thing on the blasts off at Darien lake (I wasn’t expecting it it was my first time going to Darien lake, first ride I went on)
I was working there today and anytime my coworker said "When I say Ooh, you say Ahh. Ooh!" I screamed

Just imagine yourself as a United States Navy fighter pilot with the ability of becoming the Best of the Best !!
That's why I have earplugs when I go on these many rides.
Walking under this ride when the vehicle goes by is painful. 😩
Eardrums go bye bye
I suggest we should wear 👂🏻 plugs to protect our eardrum.
@@nathancruz9172 I just got home from the park right now and I was on gold rusher with it zooming
@@micahtron21 Is Revolution still up and running too?
@@catfishandbass8680 Yes! Only Goliath, Apocalypse, and smaller coasters are closed unfortunately.
Imagine standing in line for an hour for that
Its great ride imo. Worth the wait.

I love this ride
But its not my favorite
It cant beat X2
Just noticed they took out the Superman at the very top of the tracks what a bummer that used to be a cool feature
@jxsan988The Superman statue blew away in a windstorm but was later retrieved by a local restaurant owner. Forgot which one though.
😢
The operators at Six Flags Magic Mountain are so funny.😆
I think my favorite operators are on Full Throttle, Goliath, Scream, and Superman.
Tatsuuuuuuuu
When I first rode it in the 90's there was Superman placed horizontal looking down at top.

As someone who hates big forward drops, I would love to try this. I love when the big drop is backward.
Went to six flags twice. Once in June, wasn’t open, I went again 2 weeks ago, wasn’t open… man I want to go in but it’s always closed!!
Same lol
This looks like the exact coaster my 4 yr old niece built on planet coaster, it's really the only thing she can built in the game
That was worth the 3 hr wait in line😂
Luckily it was a light crowd that day 😂

Dang we went today, first time going. This was the ONLY ride that wasn’t open. Kinda sad but all the other rides were a lotta fun.

Best part of ride is the being level one second and then being on your back going straight up the next

All right.
when you're coming down do you feel the butterflies in your stomach lol
yes
No you don’t feel really anything on this
@@AlexxVevoo Yes you do, when you're going down your heart drops and it feels like you're going to fall
@@Cable26-f1nNo, you just feel wind in your face the entire time on the launch and a floaty feeling on the spike
Thats because at the top, you are actually weightless.
Any word when this side will be usable again?
fun up top on superman : escape from krypton coaster front seat ate six flags magic mountain !!!!
remember when this came out
I rode Superman soon after it opened and our car experienced one of its' first rollbacks.
I was scared of this and then finally got on this I drive faster on the freeway than this ride loved it ❤lol 😅
I’m surprised you haven’t gotten in a car accident yet then
You drive 100mpg with the top down?
@@AyrtonSennaDaSilvaTheGOATlol😂 when I’m late to work only time I do it
@@CaptNeeda1yeah man in Mitsubishi spyder
Such a short but fun ride
What? No Superman model at the top anymore?
Dang.That's lame.
Nope it’s there
Where is the rest of the ride?
Best one ever
Wow super mooie video❤
I miss when Superman was starting down at you when you went up
What happened to Superman at the top ????
It blew off
First coaster to go 100 miles an hour sometimes
My heart will drop if I ever on this ride
I'm about to go on. My feet are tingling in fear.
did u like it i was there today to i went on it. i thought it was kinda boring just fast
@@jackhersh3632did it hurt
@@ana-ve8qn not really it didnt hurt me
It’s kinda boring ngl
I’m about to get on
The seats face forward now?
There’s 2 options one facing towards and the other side facing backwards so it’s all preference
It was closed the whole time we were there last week.
Launch Forwards And Backwards
That’s right.
When was this? Will it be open in a week for me? ( Assuming it doesnt break down the day I'm there because it's a high maintenance Intamin lol)
I was there 3 weeks ago
It's like entered into a job interview and hearing, will call you!?
Why are the seats reversed?
0:11-0:18 I’m glad I went to the forwards last year.
Wait? Does one side shoot forwards now & one backwards? When I went last in 2013. Both shot backwards
@@MattPico-i1p well, let’s just say they kept forwards on the left and backwards on the right, since 2021.
@@nathancruz9172 Another Covid change? Lol
@@MattPico-i1p not exactly

Where is Six Flags Magic Mountain located?
Valencia California
Wow I just saw six flags magic mountain right now at 10:16ish it is the SCARIEST one!!!
Hope to overcome this ride on my 18th birthday
Isnt it backwards?
From the heart ❤️
Adorable 🥰. Ride

They took superman off the top looking down at you ??
Need to point the camera more downward
thats it?
That doesn’t seem 400 ft drop. Maybe tall with the hills.
damn i realized what i missed out on the first time
*escapes from Krypton*
*goes back to admire Alderaan-chic debris*
That ride is so short all that waiting in the line just for that 😂😂😂
Let's go
That’s it?
Thats it???
Thats it?
Need to ride this based on the name alone
Why doesn’t go up that high. Plus it’s on a hill
pov my money farm coasters on Theme Park Tycoon 2
Lol thats it? That was like 10 seconds
Got like 4 hours and then they’re like ok
0:11 and 0:23 and 0:25 ❤
World's quietest ride
Why
Knerds
Sad that they took the superman off the top
That was it?????!!!!!!!
Yup. A simple launch that goes 100 miles per hour, up a vertical ramp and back while facing backwards, and that's it.
한국사람이 있는지는 모르겠지만 nine eight 출발! 이라고 들리는건 기분탓인가?
Thats not a coaster thats a glorified droptower
😂
I love DC Comics
Same dude.
Guys got jokes pressing the go button at 8 😒
Backwards is better
Thats a terrible ride LOL waiting in line for that?

What does the ride feel like (facing forwards ) when you go up the tower and when you come back down? Same question when the ride is facing backwards?
Well that’s underwhelming
king da kas better
lol
What a mess...
This is kinda disappointing tbh
What a boring ride do people seriously wait in line to ride that?
Stupid ride, with no substance for adrenaline, I prefer parachuting.
This looks so boring
So lame
such an epic name for a short and disappointing ride.
right? it's so disappointing to go on. not worth it at all, especially with all the good rides there.
