- A series of the construction of the Pepsi Max Big One.
...12 years ago. The Pepsi Max Big One was one of the first Hyper Coasters in the world, and is probably still recognized, 12 years later, by the general UK public as the world's tallest roller coaster. At just over 210ft tall, it is still a monster, even by today's standards. No matter how rough it is, how dull the layout is, and how little airtime you get, one thing still shines through - this is one amazing experience - an experience amplified if ridden at night.
The construction of the Big One took sixteen months in total. The 2,600-tonne coaster was built in sections in nearby Bolton and stored at Blackpool Airport before it was erected. the Airport is the largest open space near to the Pleasure Beach where it could be stored! As it's near the seafront and exposed to the lovely Blackpool weather, five coats of paint give it all the protection it needs. The £12 million investment proved to be a good gamble as the Big One produced a 25% increase in turnover in it's first season of operation!
i remember been 10years old just before the ride was open to public going to check out this beast. think there was a guy going around an around doing a world record rider for it
Yes there was a guy that spent 24hrs on it continuous, crazy! I went on it in 94 the year it opened, it was unbelievable & it's still an incredible blast.
Ahhhhhh women screaming, goes right through lol
The wheels look like rolls of Sellotape
that's just because they had a low budget for the trains
