The first time I stood in front of Kärnan I didn´t know all the crazy facts about the intensity and the uniqueness. I was only thinking this is going to be a good ride. And then I got my seat in the first row on my first ride (a lucky man). I couldn´t really concentrate throughout the ride. I came out of this with hands shaking and blue lips. It was so fucking excellent, I got more and more rides on it after this. Every row was a big surprise fot itself. At home I googled for Kärnan and foundout all the facts making this a world class beast coaster. Stengel and Gerstlauer did a great job on this.
the are still some greatly themed coasters in the USA, Velocicoaster for example, or most rides in Disney World, but basically, yes many coasters in the USA dont have theming
When I first rode this Rollercoaster I was really afraid of the reverse drop. But after I rode it I must say the reverse drop is the least intense part of the ride.
its a shame that this park is so unknown its awesome. the theming is great and the rides are great too i go there every year eventhough i live in north rhine westphalia
I also think they should but meh, the capacity of Kärnan is horrible, The ride is definetly one of the best in europe but it's a really big shame that they do nothing about the capacity.
King: BUILD A TOWER TO DEFEND FROM THE MONSTER! Civilians: *stupid king* Master Builder: FINE! Master Builder: *builds tower* King: Great! Master Builder: Now that we're done, I need you to cast a spell of defense! King: Ok! *ryu waga teki lo kurau!* Civilians: *lmao worldstar* King: OWWW!!! WHAT IS THIS SPELL IM DYING Master Builder: :) King: *dies* Monster: *Unleashes* Civilians: *happy* what a storyline
what a great video! this is certainly one of the most, if not the most intense coaster in Germany. The only thing that's unfortunate about it is the roughness, especially during the first half of the layout.
lol especially the first half of the layout has no roughness to complain about, a little shaky maybe, yes, due to its crazy speed...i wonder why noone gets that...
The #1 in Germany. Sure, Taron exists and i love it as much, but when it comes down to thrill the vertical Drop in that Tower is just in any way more intense than whatever Taron has to offer. Kärnan is basically a good darkride attraction with a hypercoaster attached to it
I love the American Pronouncing of „Der Schwur des Kärnan“ They try there best ^^ Cool Video:D I‘m so excited for next week when I can finally drive to the Hansa Park
This coaster is epic. It's relentless. The moment you crest the top and plunge from darkness to daylight is absolutely epic. There are very few drops better than this one. It is not the smoothest coaster out there, but with this kind of speed and so many effects I would choose this any day over a B&M or Intamin.
@@coasterbot Id like to witness the "smoothness" of Intamin or B&M coasters, when they fly through their layout like Kärnan does...the rattling on Kärnan comes from its crazy speed. and its not that bad either. Still my No.1 coaster, and i highly doubt this could be changed in near future xD
I really liked how you did the spoiler alert near the end of the video. One ride I would like to see as one of these videos is Boss at Six Flags STL. It is a fun and intense wooden coaster, and sitting in the front makes it feel butter smooth. The back is a bit rougher, but it provides the intensity. Can't wait for the next video!
Nice Video :) and Kärnan is by the way one of my most ridden Coasters :) actually i was over 1800 times on Kärnan :D love it to life 5 Minutes away from Hansa Park
Karnan deserved this spotlight! Gerstlauer's thrill coasters very often have unusual elements, and Kärnan took this creative approach to new heights. Will ride the beast later this month. I really wonder if I will rate it as high as many other enthusiasts do, as Gerstlauer hasn't overwhelmed me yet. The ride surely looks very intense, and I hope it won't be too discomfortable. Fingers crossed for now!
What is: Der Schwur des Kärnan? My #1 hyper coaster, that's what it is! That first drop is ridiculous, the intensity never lets up, and the indoor sections still caught me off guard even though I knew they were coming! To answer your question, yes, I absolutely think Gerstlauer should build more hyper coasters!
That reverse freefall element is quite impresssive! I wonder how they pulled it off without sacrificing safety and make the train able to engage/disengage the chain while hanging on it.
The upcoming Hangtime at Knott's Berry Farm is a Gerstlauer dive coaster. Can a Gerstlauer coaster coming to Heide Park in 2020 be a hybrid of a dive coaster and a hypercoaster?
was finaly able to ride Gold Rush at Slagharen today, thats an infinty as well, and im not in when they make hyper coasters. compact forcefull coasters is what they should made. I liked Gold Rush because its so much fun and is really smooth, but the train has a rattle. Its bumbing lichtly on the track and if you add that to a hyper it would be a bit rough. good video as allways
Kärnan is a forcefull compact ride. It is spread out, but definitly one of the most intense in europe while not being that much spread out (weird explanation...). I think more Gerstlauer than Karnan is nearly impossible :D But Gold Rush also was pretty good!
I went today, the drop was incredible on the first row but unfortunately in 2023 the rattle has become quite bad, almost got a headache on it, still my 2nd best coaster of all time
Careful, this comment may contain spoilers if you haven't ridden this ride. I'm really intrigued by how that reverse freefall drop works, how is the ride protected against unintentional rollbacks, they can't really use a conventional rollback stop from a lift hill. Can you find out more?
Gerstlauer Infinity coasters don't feature the standard ARBs. The lift hill features magnetic fins, which if the chain stops, the train can be descended down the hill slowly using the brake fins. The reverse freefall would utilise this brake fins, as well as a holding break, to: stop, fall backwards, brake, and begin to ascend once again.
Yes but magnetic fins can only slow down the train and not stop it completly. How is it stopped on the lifthill? The brakes would have to hold 20-30 tons in movement.
Great video and good job with the pronunciation! Although I've just had the horrible realisation that Shawn Sanbrooke will one day visit and we'll have to suffer him butchering more ride names... :(
I'm not entirely sure. Trains would be loaded and unloaded while the reverse free-fall drop is in use. This shouldn't affect the throughput too much :)
I've never ridden this coaster but from the looks of I personally think it'd be much cooler if that serpent roll were inverting, as it would likely offer incredible hang-time.
@@coasterbot And usally Hypercoasters dont do inversion...Kärnan is the only Hypercoaster who has an inversion...but that one is Spoiler Alert behind that brake run. which also is kinda unusal... Anyways i love the ejector airtime the non-inverting sea serpent roll (the so called "Heart-Element") provides, its even better than hang time xD
COASTER BOT I have told you this many times before but I'll say it again now. Helix at Liseberg. For your information then Piraten at Djurs Sommerland is my #3
DO 01 to be fair, my friend is really interested in how coasters work but doesn't actually like riding them so even if Harry didn't like coasters it wouldn't be that weird
![30 ชั่วโมงคนเดียว บนรถไฟชั้น 3 โซเวียต [Around The World Ep. 2]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/MlE9boAVqDA/mqdefault.jpg)
This ride looks like a boss!
It really does! :)
5MadMovieMakers it’s at my home park and it is the boss! I’m my opinion it’s better then fury 325
Coaster Bot you forgot that Karnan is calculated by rcstengel. It is one of the most intense coasters on earth. www.rcstengel.com/
Yep, its crazy intense, Sometimes the trains really "bend" my body at one S-curve. It is really intense but not uncomfortable at all.
The first time I stood in front of Kärnan I didn´t know all the crazy facts about the intensity and the uniqueness. I was only thinking this is going to be a good ride. And then I got my seat in the first row on my first ride (a lucky man). I couldn´t really concentrate throughout the ride. I came out of this with hands shaking and blue lips.

At home I googled for Kärnan and foundout all the facts making this a world class beast coaster. Stengel and Gerstlauer did a great job on this.
I love how in Europe coasters have a whole story to go with them but in America, most of the coasters don't even have theming.
RIP America
America has more good coasters but Europe has better theming
the are still some greatly themed coasters in the USA, Velocicoaster for example, or most rides in Disney World, but basically, yes many coasters in the USA dont have theming
Pros about this video:
Informative
Normal voice
Good pronunciation
Everything
Cons:
Nothing
You are way too kind, thank you. :)
COASTER BOT ya thx m8 these vids are what I'm subbed for
COASTER BOT also what's your coaster count? Mine is 10
My coaster count is currently 87 :)
COASTER BOT cool!
When I first rode this Rollercoaster I was really afraid of the reverse drop. But after I rode it I must say the reverse drop is the least intense part of the ride.
He protec,
He attac,
SPOILER:
But Most importantly:
He Has a Rollback 😂
gerstlauer basically owns this park.
No gerstlauer owns basically Tripsdrill
I rode it 4 times and it is awesome!!!! Oh man, that reversed drop is deadly! And it's height.... no words for that!
It is an insane ride! I love everything about it, so much so it's my new favourite coaster :)
I honestly didn't think people outside Germany even knew the "Hansapark" exists^^
More people should know about Hansa Park, it looks fantastic! :)
its a shame that this park is so unknown its awesome. the theming is great and the rides are great too i go there every year eventhough i live in north rhine westphalia
But they do in the Netherlands!
Dutch people know it.
I also think they should but meh, the capacity of Kärnan is horrible, The ride is definetly one of the best in europe but it's a really big shame that they do nothing about the capacity.
I love Englishman speaking german 😂 Great Video!
I know I got it wrong, but I tried my best. ;) Thank you. :)
COASTER BOT Your pronunciation was actually pretty good
Thank you, I appreciate it. :)
King: BUILD A TOWER TO DEFEND FROM THE MONSTER!

Snikazz same
Snikazz ist dein name nicht Alec und bist mit Paul Franke befreundet??

I could watch ur explanations for hours, no joke.
A very nice voice and its educational, too.
Keep up the good work :)
Thank you, it really means a lot! There's many more videos coming in the future, stay tuned :)
A master builder? Is this ride the prequel to the Lego Movie?
Sporech
XD
Yeah, it's part of the Lego universe. ;)
COASTER BOT Funnily enough Hansa Park used to be a Legoland park!
Nice touch on the spoilers - elegantly done!
Thank you! :)
what a great video!
this is certainly one of the most, if not the most intense coaster in Germany.
The only thing that's unfortunate about it is the roughness, especially during the first half of the layout.
Thank you, I appreciate it. I've heard mixed things about how smooth it is. I need to experience it for myself! :)

Kärnan is awesome for sure, I prefer it to Taron :)
What is Des Schwur Des Kärnan: Harry's most anticipated coaster for the European Coaster Tour
Exactly, and my current number 1 roller coaster! :)
Loved it! Definitely in my top 10!
Really interesting stuff about the backstory of the ride that I didn't know about. This coaster seems really cool
Yeah! The backstory is rather interesting; it's one of my bucket list roller coasters to try and ride in the near future. :)
Bricktycoon it is
I live in Neustadt, near Hansa park and this is so cool!
I love the American Pronouncing of „Der Schwur des Kärnan“ They try there best ^^ Cool Video:D I‘m so excited for next week when I can finally drive to the Hansa Park

I knew pretty much nothing about Karnan before this, looks like a really interesting ride.
It really does! I'm glad you've learnt something. :)
Nice video!! Kärnan is truly a beast!!!
Thank you, it really looks it! :)
I love your videos! Keep up the great work
Thank you, it means a lot! :)
Nice Video :) and Kärnan is by the way one of my most ridden Coasters :) actually i was over 1800 times on Kärnan :D love it to life 5 Minutes away from Hansa Park
Thank you! And that's awesome to hear, 1800 times is actually insane :)
:) Yesterday i had my 2000th ride on Kärnan :)
Looks like a great Coaster. I loved the back story
I agree! :)
Nice! A Video about my homepark AND my #1 or #2 (not entirely sure) Coaster! Well done Video...as always!
Awesome! Thanks for watching. :)
That's because you haven't ridden as many coasters as me robin...jk love you
Good video
btw. I love Kärnan
Lappen...
What is tied with karnan as your number one? I'm guessing helix from liseberg but idk
Speedy Reviews It's Taron
make a "what is Vliegende Hollander" there is so much going on in there.
That Efteling ride is on the list of ones to create videos on in the future. Thanks for the suggestion. :)
awesome. looking forward to it. thnx for awnsering. you guys make realy good video's.
No problem! Thank you. :)
What is: Sean, from Theme Park Worldwide
A great guy ;)
*Shawn
a great meme
Finally an what is video again:D! In my opinion its the best coaster in the world!
Awesome! :)
CanadaCoasterFan thanks, and i like youre videos!
Awesome to hear! :)
*CCF fans instantly jump to the video and give it a like*
It seems like he did from the comment! :)
Karnan deserved this spotlight! Gerstlauer's thrill coasters very often have unusual elements, and Kärnan took this creative approach to new heights.

Definitely! Hopefully you enjoy the ride, it looks fantastic :)
Beautiful video. Love it
Thank you! :)
What the fuck i had no idea but that tower that it's based on is located in my home town... 😂😂 ( I love the way you say "kärnan" in the video 😂)
What is: Der Schwur des Kärnan? My #1 hyper coaster, that's what it is! That first drop is ridiculous, the intensity never lets up, and the indoor sections still caught me off guard even though I knew they were coming!

The best coaster and your best video
Thank you! :)
CCF will love this video
CanadaCoasterFan I love that you’re watching Kärnan videos instead of riding Leviathan
I've been on it more than twenty times - From when it was open for just a month, and back in september this year.
That's awesome to hear! :)
That looks so cool, exspecialy the theming and the back story for the theme. I would ride it but I live in America lol
I agree! The whole ride looks fantastic. Hopefully you can come to Europe and ride it in the future! :)
COASTER BOT I would love too! But I’m very scared of planes lol oh well
I'm sure it would be worth it though! ;)
nice vid my dude
Thank you! :)
Yay! New "What Is"
You make great videos and you have good content!!!!
Thank you very much, I appreciate it. :)
great video coaster bot
Thank you! :)
That reverse freefall element is quite impresssive! I wonder how they pulled it off without sacrificing safety and make the train able to engage/disengage the chain while hanging on it.
It definitely sees it, I cannot wait to experience it myself next month :)
I guess there are Safety LSMs in case the Train actually falls back the whole Track.
The upcoming Hangtime at Knott's Berry Farm is a Gerstlauer dive coaster. Can a Gerstlauer coaster coming to Heide Park in 2020 be a hybrid of a dive coaster and a hypercoaster?
It would be interesting to see Heide Park get a Gerstlauer roller coaster :)
Keep up the good vids
I will do, thank you! :)
This is by far the best Gerstlauer infinity coaster built to date :) No arguing that
It truly looks it! I cannot wait to ride next month :)
This is my number 1 bucket list coaster, not including Cedar Point where I'm going for the first time in less than 3 weeks.
It's a fantastic ride, I don't think you'll be disappointed. :)
I love this coaster❤
It does look fantastic :)
there is backwards free fall before riding down the tower
I really want to ride this now that I've seen this video!
Me too! The coaster looks fantastic :)
Fantastic, just like this video
Keep up the good work :D
Thank you, there's a lot more to come in the future, stay tuned! :)

YAY FOR METRIC!!!!
Whey! :)
Can you do something about gardaland like blue tornado, oblivion the black hole and magic mountain (shaman)?
I do hope to cover some Gardaland attractions, mainly Oblivion: The Black Hole, in future videos :)
i knew this video will come
I had said in the past that this video would be made. ;)
What is Next??
Oh and i love your videos!
Can you do Silver dollar city: explained next? Please?
What's up next is a secret! Thank you, it means a lot. I'll note your suggestion down :)
I went today, the drop was incredible on the first row but unfortunately in 2023 the rattle has become quite bad, almost got a headache on it, still my 2nd best coaster of all time

Doesn't Hyperion have a snake dive and is like 255 feet or so though?
It's a non-inverting dive loop :)
My home park!!!
Awesome :)
Great video and good job with the pronunciation!
Although I've just had the horrible realisation that Shawn Sanbrooke will one day visit and we'll have to suffer him butchering more ride names... :(
Thank you! I appreciate it. Someone needs to teach him the pronunciation before he visits the park! :)
Hansa park looks cool
It really does, I hope to visit in the near future. :)
COASTER BOT cool!
It's really an impressive thing.
It looks like it! :)
What's it's throughput? It mustn't be great, since it only has 16 riders per train and a reverse free-fall drop.
I'm not entirely sure. Trains would be loaded and unloaded while the reverse free-fall drop is in use. This shouldn't affect the throughput too much :)
Waiting time is usually about 30-40 min. It can go up to over an hour but that's rare and only happens if the park is super full.
the capacity of Kärnan is 900 guests/hour
Not the biggest Gerst fan, but this coaster just looks amazing..
I am a big Gerst fan and I agree! ;)
I would love to ride this!
It is fantastic! :)
COASTER BOT love you and Taylor, man!
Thanks, it means a lot! :)
8 months later...
Harry got to ride Kärnan & it was his new top coaster!
Spoilers! ;)
What does Der schwur karnan mean
They sure 'tis cannon?
I've never ridden this coaster but from the looks of I personally think it'd be much cooler if that serpent roll were inverting, as it would likely offer incredible hang-time.
It would be interesting to have a sea-serpent roll, but the non-inverting one is pretty cool also! :)
@@coasterbot And usally Hypercoasters dont do inversion...Kärnan is the only Hypercoaster who has an inversion...but that one is
Spoiler Alert
behind that brake run. which also is kinda unusal...
Anyways i love the ejector airtime the non-inverting sea serpent roll (the so called "Heart-Element") provides, its even better than hang time xD
I rode it 2h ago
great ride :D
Awesome, I am jealous! :)
I’ve always wanted to know what this ride was called and it looks awesome.
Well now you know! :)
Can you do rockin’ roller coaster in Disney World Florida USA?
I'll note it down, thanks for the suggestion :)
Can you do a spinning coasters explained video please? ;D
It's on the list, thanks for the suggestion. :)
Coaster BOT when are you doing your next Livestream
I'm not sure unfortunately. Stay tuned on social media for updates surrounding live streams. :)
Thanks, Coaster BOT
No problem! :)
nice vid
Thank you! :)
Hooray for gurslarer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I agree! :)
What do you mean by I agree! :)
My #2 favorite coaster so far and my credit #50. Yahoo!
What's your favourite coaster? :)
COASTER BOT I have told you this many times before but I'll say it again now. Helix at Liseberg. For your information then Piraten at Djurs Sommerland is my #3
I know you've told me before, but my memory is complete trash. Sorry! ;)
DrDewott Congrats for making it to 50 credits! I'm at 42 credits.
COASTER BOT than how do you remember which is the first row on the smiler
Really good german pronounciation! (I am a German)
Thank you, it means a lot :)
You could do a what is episode on Gatekeeper at Cedar Point. Looks like a sick coaster
GateKeeper is on the list of coasters to cover in future videos, thanks for the suggestion :)
COASTER BOT yay woo!
COASTER BOT sadly, lots of people think it is forceless but I think it looks good
Please do What is: DC Rivals Hypercoaster!
It's on the list, thanks for the suggestion. :)
What is “Pulsar” - Walibi Belgium
It's on the list of roller coasters to potentially cover in future videos, thanks for the suggestion. :)
I am still wondering how that reverse freefall works. Can someone tell me?
my guess is that the chain detaches while the train is stopped, and then brakes below kick in to slow the train down
I have a funny idea 💡 you should do what is Goliath and talk about all of them if you haven’t already done it.
Coaster Studios did a very similar thing to this, go and check it out. :)
COASTER BOT Lol ok I saw it really funny 😄
Are Infinitys generally better than Euro Fighters?
Most definitely! :)
What is your editing software?
Adobe Premiere Pro CC :)
Vegas is for scrubs ;) jokes aside, I've rarely used it!
I've always been scared of going up a vertical lift hill and falling down. After seeing this, I'm just like.. no
I'm sure it would be pretty awesome! ;)
Can we switch Cannibal with this ride?
No, this is our one! :)
Dang 6 years ago! I was gonna comment Hyperion had a inversion but never mind😅
They should not make more traditional hyper coasters but the should make more hyper coasters! Even bigger ones or even crazy launched variants.
I'd love to see a hybrid between traditional hyper coaster, and conventional Infinity coaster design. It would be pretty awesome :)
Do you like roller coasters or do you just know about them
THE SMASHING MAN his channel is based entirely about rollercoasters, so no, no he doesnt like them
DO 01 to be fair, my friend is really interested in how coasters work but doesn't actually like riding them so even if Harry didn't like coasters it wouldn't be that weird
Lol, i just thought he would like them
I love roller coasters fortunately! :)
Oh, ok
Please make a video about star trek operation enterprise in the movie park germany
Star Trek Operation Enterprise is on the list of roller coasters to potentially cover in future videos. Thanks for the suggestion. :)
Best Gerstlauer coaster in existence? Looks like it to me!
Definitely!
He forgot the part where there was a backwards drop down the lift hill, kinda the best part of the ride 😂😂
Did I...? Watch the whole video again. ;)
I find it funny how Kärnan the ride is taller than the real Kärnan tower. ;)
That is very interesting to learn! :)
This one is faster than taron?
It is, 10kmh faster!
