SUPERMAN Escape travels 0 - 100 kilometres in 2 seconds!
With 760 metres of vertical climbs, weightless drops, head spinning twists and giant G-force turns, Superman Escape is one of a kind at the Gold Coast Theme Parks.

Themed around the popular DC Super Hero, guests commence their adventure in a Metropolis subway loading dock. As they travel through the subway, a terrifying earthquake takes hold and threatens their safe passage.

To escape the catastrophe, Superman rescues guests by propelling their carriage out then vertically upwards at 100km per hour!

Readers' rating:

Fantastic theming and storyline meets a great thrilling coaster. - Nathan Alexander

I was so scared to go on this coaster, it was my first real thrill coaster however after the begining part, which really makes your stomach go, the ride itself is not too bad, and heaps of fun...its not as bad as it looks - Rachelle Beaney

Definitely the best ride at the park. Good theming and story and then an awesome launch followed by smooth and steep hills. 10/10 - Robert Brimelow
