Roller coaster
Minimum height to ride: 55 inches

About Oblivion

The world's first Diving Coaster, it reclines you onto your back while climbing the lift hill, then inches around a 160 degree turn, at an agonizingly slow pace, giving you a panoramic view of the countryside before starting over the edge and stopping. It just hangs there for four bone-chilling seconds, that make your blood run cold enough to freeze. DON'T LOOK DOWN... -- Last edited by Steve Chisnall

You get a nice rush, but it's so short. Not a ride you'll want to go on for a second time. - Caroline Davis

My vote is simply for the drop which is amazing, however the ride is shockingly short. I wouldn't queue for longer than 40mins for this ride - Emily G
