TitanRoller coasterMinimum height to ride: 48 inches About TitanA Giovanola hyper coaster, with a top speed of 85 mph, a 255-ft. first drop and a 120-foot underground tunnel. Edit: The second half of the ride throws riders into many high-speed turns. This also includes a fast, tight helix where riders will experience intense G-forces. They are listed as 4.5 (source - www.ultimaterollercoasters.com). -- Last edited by Steph M [Update this description | Read previous versions] Photos from TitanSafety
Readers' Opinions
I cannot stand this ride for more than one ride. It makes me black out and get a headache. It might have a good first drop, but other than that it is way too intense and I think dangerous. Even with harsh (almost stopping) mid ride brakes, I black out every time on this ride. Not a safe ride, and not even fun. - Jake Gould Everyone complains about the blackouts, but I think they make it fun! It's interesting why this happens: the G forces are so strong that your heart has to work harder to beat gravity and get blood to all the right places, so your brain cuts back on "unnecessary things." Like eyesight. That's a scary thought to most people, but it is very interesting and fun! The ride is so smooth... and once you get off, you still feel like you're floating (: Great ride, wait a second- AWESOME ride.. but if you're scared of blacking out I wouldn't suggest riding it. - Sha Windham Ok, I can sum up all about Titan with one word: AWESOME!!! By far, this is the best ride in the park. Every thing about it is amazing. The height of it was Incredible! Same with the drop. But, the first helix is what gets me. I notice that the farther back you get on the train, the more you start to blackout on the helix. That's why front row is the best. This is a must-do, that cannot be missed. P.S.- I met a 6 year old boy that rode this and loved it! - Asher Oosterbaan
