Thank you very much man! I watched yours after I finished mine and I couldn't agree more! It's great that we both approach things from a different perspective :)
Anytime B&M says they’re too busy to build a coaster for you, you’re screwed BGW: can you build something for us? B&M: no we’re too busy Result: Drachen Fire USF: can you build something for us? B&M: no we’re too busy Result: this
actually, b&m didnt think they had the power to build one at williamsburg, so they went with arrow dynamics instead which tried to copy b&ms support structure
@@CrossedCoder and what, lose your phone halfway through?? a ride's soundtrack / audio design gives it character - this shouldn't be changed by the rider, but rather designed and unchangable
@@SonOfFurzehatt But this ride was built after lots of Euro-Fighters had been built, so I can't see why they couldn't have gone vertical with the drop -- or beyond vertical!
What is Rip Ride Rockit to me? My 70th coaster!!! I visited Florida for the first time end of April/beginning of May and Universal was my third major park on the trip. I personally thought this ride was amazing, yes there are too many MCBRs lol but I didn't find it to take away from the experience that much. I've yet to ride a Gerstlauer so this had my first vertical lift, quite an interesting experience. I found this ride to have crazy ejector everywhere, including into the midcourse runs, and those tight turns and the (non-inverting?) inclined loop were crazy forceful. Overall just a phenomenal ride and definitely a great fit for Universal. Did not know about the secret playlist so I'll definitely have to try that the next time I go back. Thanks for another great video, Harry!!
It's interesting that some riders feel the brake runs take away from the experience. I don't think it does. Because as soon as you go up into the brake runs there's a decent amount of airtime going into those brake runs because of the speed that you up into those which make those parts a bit intense
I haven’t seen a single comment mentioning this so far, but the hole in the building that the track goes through actually belonged to Twister before it closed in 2015. If you were standing in the queue you could watch the trains of the coaster speed by and even hear the muffled roar. It’s one of the things I miss honestly.
The three times I’ve ridden either the touch screen didn’t work so I couldn’t pick my music or the speakers were out entirely(but I could here the person’s next to me).
I‘ve been on this a few times and i can tell you it‘s a great coaster and it‘s fun, the drop may not be vertical, but it is very steep, also i don‘t know how practical it would be for it to be vertical since it‘s such a long drop it‘s gotta curve out somewhere. I can understand people not liking the brake runs, but you do get airtime into em, and the one before the hole in the building gives you a near vertical drop, it would be nice if they did away with the ones before and after the s curve and put in 2 airtime hills, but i still dont think they‘re bad. Atleast they have drops going out of em. Awesome coaster!
Been looking forward to this video, Harry! Honestly love this ride. Universal managed to give the Studios a bit more variety with its own roller coaster lineup by the time Rip Ride Rockit opened imo. Plus, Motley Crue's Kickstart My Heart works so well for the ride!
Yay, thank you for doing this!!! I'm going to Universal next month, and I'm so excited to ride this and Hulk! My coaster count is 47 rn. It'll go up a lot when I get back from the trip!
Note: the lap bar restraints are so weird. They are connected to either the right side or left side and rotate around. So, whenever you're going through the ride, one side lifts up a bit which makes it a little weird to ride with.
Are you sure Hollywood Dream is a BM hyper? Hyper coasters don’t have inversions. Also at 6:25 I went on a 2017 and was pulled down. However, we weren’t evacuated.
A ride that enthusiasts claim have a horrible rattle but is actually amazing, and confirms your theory that enthusiasts complain about a rattle on everything! Just kidding, well, kind of. 😉
Nice one Harry , love this coaster . We will be back on it in 9 days 🤩🤩. It’s a must do in studios as it’s the only outdoor coaster there . It is spectacular at night . Favourite tracks when I ride MARRS pump up the volume CYPRES HILL insane in the brain BEASTIE BOYS inter galactic. Never a dull moment on this one and it looks so cool to 🎢👌🏼🧱👍🏼
Unpopular opinion but I like it and think it's better than the Hulk. Now don't get me wrong, the break runs suck and I wouldn't try and compare this to coasters at parks with higher thrills. But if you think of this as more of a family coaster then it's pretty fun. The non-inverting-loop is really cool and the setting, as well as song options, make it a fun coaster. Yes, the break runs ruin the momentum. But it's still a fun coaster in general. You have to think of this as competing with other Universal and Disney coasters and not competing with Sea World or Busch Gardens. In that way, it holds up well and isn't nearly as rough as the Hulk. So while it obviously isn't on par with the flagship coasters of Six Flags, Herschend or Cedar Fair, it is still really fun and allows the line to move faster (which is neccessary if you've ever been to this park.)
Completely agree, Hulk is one of my least favourite B&M's, I'm always underwhelmed by it. It's better since the redo but can never beat other classic B&M's. Meanwhile, RRR is as good as average B&M hypers in my opinion, and much better than Intrimidator-232 at Carowinds (my least favourite hyper). The RRR doesn't provide constant floater air-time, but the non-inverting loop gives great ejector air-time, and I approve of every gimmick this ride has going. Maurer's finest.
@@bobthebear1246 wow, really clever zinger. I guess liking a coaster because it fits the park it's in is a very GP and unsophisticated way of viewing coasters. Brilliant elite coaster analysis buckaroo.
Here is a challenge for you Coaster not. I want you to explain the Chinese company Golden Horse,since for me they are quit interesting company to talk and it also will be a fun challenge for you. They’re slightly original models are pretty fun as well but their knockoff sucks
_I want to ride this so bad, I know the lift hill is gonna shake me up but im still willing to do it._ Edit: Oh my god im glad I watched this. I wanna play intergalactic on this
This really isn’t that bad of a ride. It irritates me when enthusiasts claim that this ride is horrible because of its mid courses, but let’s be honest. Some of those coaster enthusiasts who claim that have probably never been on the ride, and only claim that because it’s popular to hate on it. Never say a coaster is bad until you’ve actually been on it. I really enjoyed HRRR
For Coster Bot go to read more For people, PLEASE dont say hate make shore to give him feedback if he is doing something wrong... Thank you Coster Bot for teaching me a lot more about rollacosters then I used to...
I rode this, i didnt get the drop feeling, anyone relate? And i got stapled, i could barely breath and i really wanted the ride to stop which never happens to me.
@@felixhekster drops usually give airtime, not really this "drop feeling" unless its like a 50 degree drop. if thats what youre looking for then youre better off riding flatrides :P
Harry please do a What Is: Valhalla, I went on it once and want to know if all the effects were working for me lol! There isn’t much content on the ride
I don't know if I would like having the music, I have never experienced it so I can't say for sure but I think I would just want to hear the sounds of the coaster and the wind. Nice video
When I was there, it was broken half the time. I managed to get on while it was operating and found the lift hill really cool. The rest of the ride was uncomfortable Gs and brake runs.
TheNomios they are installed to allow multiple trains to safely operate at once. Most coasters are split into different sections - known as ‘blocks’. If the block ahead isn’t clear, the MCBR will stop the train to avoid a collision. Once the block is clear, the brakes will release allowing the train to continue into the next block.
The thing that makes me so mad is the fact that Universal didn't get a B&M hyper and instead got a coaster with ten brake runs that may or may not stop you for 30 seconds
Bob Schneider really? I agree with the guy who wrote this comment, I honestly enjoyed it, and I go to parks a lot. I know you’ll hate me for my opinion, but it’s just what I think.
I went on this ride back in 2011. And it stopped at one of the mid-course break runs due to technical difficulty's. we waited for at least 20 minutes on that break run until the ride started moving again. it ruined the whole ride experience.
You can, here's the proof! pdfaiw.uspto.gov/.aiw?Docid=20090013895&homeurl=http%3A%2F%2Fappft.uspto.gov%2Fnetacgi%2Fnph-Parser%3FSect1%3DPTO1%2526Sect2%3DHITOFF%2526d%3DPG01%2526p%3D1%2526u%3D%2Fnetahtml%2FPTO%2Fsrchnum.html%2526r%3D1%2526f%3DG%2526l%3D50%2526s1%3D%25252720090013895%252527.PGNR.%2526OS%3DDN%2F20090013895%2526RS%3DDN%2F20090013895&PageNum=&Rtype=&SectionNum=&idkey=97EECDA22190
My daughter worked for several years at the Blue Man Group's box office, which is directly across from the Rip Ride Rockit coaster. EVERY hour it would break down, and she refused to ride it, even though she is a coaster enthusiast. Apparently it still happens and everyone who works at Blue Man watches the many problems that it has. I'm shocked that no one has done an investigational video as to why, and could it harm people eventually?
Some rides are definitely less reliable than others. Though poor reliability doesn't mean poor safety. Some roller coasters are extremely over-sensitive, meaning any small thing could cause the ride to shut down. This in turn would make the ride extremely safe but also difficult to operate well over long periods of time.
at least in europe it is kinda common, see Speed of Sound in Walibi Holland th-cam.com/video/f9zCVCitE7k/w-d-xo.html or Dwervelwind in Toverland th-cam.com/video/Q1SJ9_rOQq0/w-d-xo.html

The only reason I know this ride is because it has so many brakes
And the GP
I didn´t have any break yesterday -_-
The brakes are block sections. Thats why this ride can run 7 trains
Maurer Söhne:. How many brake run segments do you want on your new ride
Universal: *Yes*
I just saw this. Great video! I love seeing different versions of the same topic. It is so interesting to see the differences.

a ride's soundtrack / audio design gives it character - this shouldn't be changed by the rider, but rather designed and unchangable
Vertical lift hill but no vertical drop?
To be fair, the invention of the vertical lift predates the vertical drop by nearly 30 years.
@@SonOfFurzehatt But this ride was built after lots of Euro-Fighters had been built, so I can't see why they couldn't have gone vertical with the drop -- or beyond vertical!
I'm not sure the trains are capable of cresting the tight radius required for a vertical drop as they're quite long

Because as soon as you go up into the brake runs there's a decent amount of airtime going into those brake runs because of the speed that you up into those which make those parts a bit intense

Is it a great coaster? No. Is listening to Rainbow Connection while riding a coaster one of the most magical experiences you will ever have? Probably.
I definitely think the addition of music helps the ride!

This coaster isn't great, but it does have my favorite element. That non-inverting loop gives nuts ejector!
No it doesn't
edit 14/1/2022: man I didn't know how to shut the fuck up at this time
@@blitzn00dle50 I should've specified lol, it gives rly good ejector if you're in the back and have some room between you and the lapbar

Oh I'm sure you do, the drops off them are quite steep!
The airtime is great, but the rattle in the back car is awful.

TheNomios they are installed to allow multiple trains to safely operate at once. Most coasters are split into different sections - known as ‘blocks’. If the block ahead isn’t clear, the MCBR will stop the train to avoid a collision. Once the block is clear, the brakes will release allowing the train to continue into the next block.
@@2DamnSeddy Thanks :) It turns out all coasters I've ever been to operated only one train at once, hence the confusion.

You can, here's the proof! pdfaiw.uspto.gov/.aiw?Docid=20090013895&homeurl=http%3A%2F%2Fappft.uspto.gov%2Fnetacgi%2Fnph-Parser%3FSect1%3DPTO1%2526Sect2%3DHITOFF%2526d%3DPG01%2526p%3D1%2526u%3D%2Fnetahtml%2FPTO%2Fsrchnum.html%2526r%3D1%2526f%3DG%2526l%3D50%2526s1%3D%25252720090013895%252527.PGNR.%2526OS%3DDN%2F20090013895%2526RS%3DDN%2F20090013895&PageNum=&Rtype=&SectionNum=&idkey=97EECDA22190

My daughter worked for several years at the Blue Man Group's box office, which is directly across from the Rip Ride Rockit coaster. EVERY hour it would break down, and she refused to ride it, even though she is a coaster enthusiast. Apparently it still happens and everyone who works at Blue Man watches the many problems that it has. I'm shocked that no one has done an investigational video as to why, and could it harm people eventually?
Some rides are definitely less reliable than others. Though poor reliability doesn't mean poor safety. Some roller coasters are extremely over-sensitive, meaning any small thing could cause the ride to shut down. This in turn would make the ride extremely safe but also difficult to operate well over long periods of time.
Explain centrifugical force on a roller coaster
I'll note this down, thanks for the suggestion :)
I'd like more rides with on-board audio, but not well-known songs. I'd rather have a piece written specifically for the ride.
at least in europe it is kinda common, see Speed of Sound in Walibi Holland th-cam.com/video/f9zCVCitE7k/w-d-xo.html or Dwervelwind in Toverland th-cam.com/video/Q1SJ9_rOQq0/w-d-xo.html
Freundlicher Mensch as well as The Incredible Hulk Coaster, that has a cool original soundtrack.
Another midcourse break run...seriously i quite like this coaster but the on ride audio is nothing special to me
