    You feel like you're going to die when your at the top, at the end you feel like a legend.

    Anyone who has rode this can agree the air time is absolutely brutal.

      I've ridden Shambhala several times, and "brutal" is definitly not the term I would use to characterize its airtimes. I think more accurates words would be something like "never-ending", "atmospheric", "ethereal", "majestic"...

    @parisismyname1 10 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    The back is actually the best place to sit when riding a roller coaster because all the weight from the other carts gives you an extra pull when going down the steep slopes. If you've never sat on the back before, try it just once! Trust me! There is a big difference from siting in the front!

    • @LilithTheFox
      @LilithTheFox 10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I personally prefer the front. In the back, i hate the feel of being pulled down the drop instead of just letting gravity take you down. But everyone has their own opinions.

    This must be INSANE! From what it looks like to me this thing is an air time machine. You can see how they are being pushed upwards very early on on the ascent over the AT hill. B&M has such different AT hills compared to Intamin or such. It also looks like that you rarely see the track in front of you when coasting those hills.... very cool! Bucket list material!

    been on this rollercoaster last summer holiday. freakin awesome! it's so much better to enter this rollercoaster during late evening because of the excitement, but the waiting queue is also much longer in the evenings and that really sucks! we had to wait 50 minutes. during midday the waiting time is about 20 minutes

  • @metallicamy1
    @metallicamy1 10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    this is MUCH taller than the rollercoaster in blackpool and it is actually a fact that this is the tallest one in europe. yes the rollercoaster in blackpool seems like it is quite high but if you look at how steep it is compared to shambhala it really pales in significance. when you are on this rollercoaster you realise just how massive it is, and when you come hurtling down after that steep incline you can't even see the track it is so steep and literally takes your breath away, which is why you can't hear anyone screaming. i did this ride all by myself last week (as in my partner was too big to get on the ride after we had queued for nearly 3 hours... there were of course other people on the rollercoaster with me) and i was TERRIFIED! But so glad i did it and would really recommend it to anyone who loves these kinds of thrills :-D

    • @ewilliams370
      @ewilliams370 10 ปีที่แล้ว

      Been on both many times. Ok it does say that Shambhala is the tallest in Europe end the stats back this up but I have always said that the Big One looks and feels taller for some reason. I don't know why this is. Is it because the Shambhala lift goes up steeper and faster to the first drop , whereas the Big One seems to take forever , and then the view you get of the Flyde coast? Just seems higher to me...... but again I know it's not! lol!
