Week IXX: Best Coaster Test Ride Footage

Featured Replies

Just recently we saw two of the largest projects going into the 2015 season: ThunderBird and FURY 325. Both of these were embraced deeply by the theme park enthusiast bases and are the buzz lately. With this, I took an aside to reflect on the test footage we have seen prior to this, and with that being said, that is this week's topic: Which coaster has the best test ride footage?

I'm partial to this video of the testing of Green Lantern: First Flight at SFMM, in which the water dummies' caps either came loose or were never properly attached, resulting in the water dummies launching water every which way and a long, drenching waterfall when the car momentarily stops at an MCBR:

But that's me! :)

The Crystal Beach Cyclone would be one I'd like to see a POV of, to delve deep into the mind of one Harry Traver.

Those poor water dummies, oh, the humanity.

I would've liked to see the King Cobra process, build it, test it tear down ship and repeat.

Be pretty neat to see.

That Green Lantern video reminds me of those suspended coasters that were loaded with water that passengers could spray those on the ground with as people walked by (examples: Nickelodeon Super Saturator, Roller Soaker). :P
