    The rides theming is absolutely amazing as well as a very smooth ride and terrifying first drop (I don’t feel safe upside down in any circumstance). I haven’t fully watched this video as I’m in the car going somewhere but just judging by the editing this looks hilarious and very well made! I’ll edit my comment once I’ve seen it in its entirety with audio

      you know you raise a good point, I never thought. Maybe they should have waited a year to open the ride. But to be honest they probably weren't aware it would be hosted in London when they started building it!

    Alegedly - 'brave it backwards' was removed because if the trains were to collide for any reaon, there woudln't be enough clearance created by the bumpers etc to stop riders legs from being crushed. Or maybe that's complete BS, i dunno?

    I honestly have no clue why this one flopped so much? I mean it’s smooth and wing coasters are normally crowd pleasers cuz of the headchoppers. It actually has more track length than nemesis. And I think the theme isn’t a bad one. I really don’t know why it wasn’t a success. Maybe just didn’t strike a chord with the public? I honestly have no clue because it has always intrigued me!

      it is weird I agree! I am glad it's getting the recognition it deserves now. It is a mystery why it didn't work out so well. I'm also with you on that, I love the swarm in general a long with its theme its a great overall package >:D

    @maxradwan7979 6 дней назад

    I've always enjoyed the Swarm, about as gentle experience you can get on what would be classed as a proper thrill ride, if that makes sense. So it's fun but relatively accessible for a big coaster. Also those vest restraints >>>>

    • @Q4Coasters
      @Q4Coasters  5 дней назад

      YES totally agree, vest restraints are my favourite kind its why I like Mandril and Swarm so much. If only my favourite coasters (both nemesis rollercoasters) had those, I'm not a fan of the clicking because sometimes its tight and other times it feels loose. The swarm is one of my favourites at the park closely behind inferno because of how much of an experience it is :D

      @@Q4Coasters Yeah's it's weird how the level of click (defo a technical term) is so inconsistent. Best example of that is Oblivion but when it's like 1 rung looser than it should max out at it's sooooo fun. But yeah Nemesis is goated, went to Towers for the first time in years a couple of weeks ago and doing Nemesis Reborn was so fun. And yeah Inferno's kinda underrated.
