[4321Channel1234]

he didnt drop the camera cuz he tied it around his wrist

[disneyfan85]

I went on that ride in 2008! That ride goes like a bat outta hell!

[ElevatorsandAlarms]

Brainrush

[Icyjesy]

I WENT ON THAT RIDE!! IT STARTS AT 90 MILES AN HOUR THE SEATS HAVE TO BE REALLY HIGH CAUSE YOU CAN BREAK YOUR NECK ON IT :) IS AWSOME!!

[CSM0fficial]

if only this ride was 400 ft.... I love how it has over banked turns, it doesn't just stop after the big hill!

[hhdancerbabe11]

Best ride...well.....next to silver bullet ofcourse

[princesscupcake111]

Omg I went there a few days ago I loved it I didn't go on every ride but I went on most!! My favorite was the pony express!! Next to the ride is a log ride and you go in the air straight down!

[PeaceLuvSing2244]

Best ride ever! :D



[halofanboylol101]

i just hate how super cool intense rides like this one last only a couple of seconds

[Mr111Rocky]

This is exactly the same as stealh and kingda ka

[BearDownWildcats]

@Mr111Rocky

Stealth is the same height

Kinda Ka is twice the size as this!

[atifah32281]

[aaavideos62]

[rfontanares]

Going there on Saturday, but I'm not going to ride this. Its so fast.

[G4M3RT3K]

I just came back from there and let me say, if you would like to experience speed, sit in the FRONT. Other than that, it was such a fun ride. <3

[hoopsnyoyo15]

coasterforce what is your favorite intamin accelerator coaster?

[wwwCOASTERFORCEcom]

@hoopsnyoyo15 This one has the best acceleration & Volcano at Kings Dominion is the most unique, but nothing beats the rush of riding Top Thrill Dragster at Cedar Point.

[highsteel240]

@wwwCOASTERFORCEcom I have been on both and the top Thrill Dragster is by far my fav

[hoopsnyoyo15]

is this or storm runner better?

[Jmarley912]

"......but lately it's been getting too much publicity for all the wrong reasons."

What's that?

[wwwCOASTERFORCEcom]

@Jmarley912 See our reply to IhaveSonar.

[jayroalvarez]

hey please answer!

you know when you go on the silver bullet, there's a place to put your things (like a cuboard). When you go on the Xcelerator is there a spot like that?

[zumiezelemento14]

@jayroalvarez Yes, there are cubbies to put your things on the side.

[triskaidek900100]

IM GOING ON IT MY FIRST TIME TODAY!!!!!!!!!!

[lizzyxrox]

@triskaidek900100 i went today it was so awesome but it didn't feel like anything

[hollistergirl4312]

Is it really scary???

[Girisgreencrazeiful]

@hollistergirl4312 no you only get vuuterflys in your stomach in the begining when it shhots forward but you dont feel the drop or anything after words my 7 yr old lil sis went on it and she really scared of roller coaster but she wanted to get on it over and over again

[wesnaw722]

i was in the exact same seat as you :)

[ANGIEandMINITOYfilms]

i wanted to ride on this but it was closed D: idk why

[Breakthewalls88]

Hey dude plz help!!! How do u tape it so perfectly and make sure it dosent fall ... Im goin to Knotts Berry Farm next week can u tell me cuz i wanna tape :) thx plz

[2015AsM]

Stormrunner is also an Intamin Accel. isnt it? Is Xcelerator older?

[wwwCOASTERFORCEcom]

@2015AsM Xcelerator was the first Intamin accelerator coaster & opened 2 years before Storm Runner.

[Brotherclips]

@2015AsM Knott's berry farm was the first amusement park in america so Xcelerator is of course older

[musicslikeadrug]

How the hell do you hold onto that camera?

[robloxianmaster]

This is the Top Thrill Dragster and Kingda Ka's child

[wwwCOASTERFORCEcom]

@robloxianmaster Since when is a child born before it's parents? ;D

[TheJedigir]

@robloxianmaster um..........if TTD and KK are xcelerators parents, which would be the mom and which would be the dad?

[robloxianmaster]

@TheJedigir KK is the dad. TTD is the mom.

[Mijelic22]

Do you guys have a video of Ghost Rider

[bobbythecar]

the paint just makes it look cute

[chobo500]

this and the hulk coaster at IOA need a paint job.

[Jehuty989]

the best part is the launch

[IhaveSonar]

Publicity for all the wrong reasons? What are those reasons?

[wwwCOASTERFORCEcom]

@IhaveSonar The launch cable snapped & the coaster was closed for months, but that was in 2009.

[kelpie555]

@wwwCOASTERFORCEcom the cable snapped? i watched a complination of rollercoaster fails final destination 3 and i think most likely like you i will not stop riding coasters

[DNAdeathninja1]

i went to knotts on tuesday and had to wait over an hour to ride this, cause they had to fix it up a bit. it was fun but too bad it was such a shortass ride

[Jmarley912]

@Coasterforce I don't understand your description

[nrowah]

Or boring

[nrowah]

This ride is anything but cheap

[TheVerySpecialThommy]

boooring, looks cheap

[Sum1MakinVids]

@TheVerySpecialThommy

Xcelerator Stats:

Cost: $13 Million

Acceleration: 0-82 in 2.3 seconds

Height: 205 feet

Max Vertical Angle: 90 degrees

Do any of these look cheap or boring to you?

[TheVerySpecialThommy]

@Sum1MakinVids well, this just proves that 13 million dollars could have been spent much better

[Sum1MakinVids]

@TheVerySpecialThommy Have you ever been on this? This is undisputably one of the best coasters on the west coast! Although the trains do look like toy cars, the ride is smooth, graceful, and full of relentless positave, negative, lateral, and acceleration g's. Have you ever heard anyone say that about such a short ride?

For me, Silver Bullet is a waste of money. There is almost no intensity, except for a brief amount of positave g's in the last helix. So, we all have our opinions.

[dayice101]

You have a good camera. o_O

[Z62KK]

I would poop...Super hard every were

[xTinaSM]

are u holdinq a camera or what?

[wwwCOASTERFORCEcom]

@xTinaSM Yes.

[briancalifornia1]

how fast does it go?

[wwwCOASTERFORCEcom]

@briancalifornia1 82 mph

[robertly3]

i know i saw this roller coaster on a show, but i forgot the name of that show.

[ash09er5]

@robertly3 you saw it on brainrush

[AudiABTr8]

@robertly3 Oh yeah that thing on Cartoon Network with the quizzes!

[iSpeed09]

I've noticed Knott's has two rides with the best over banked turns... XD

this and silver bullet rock like hell :D

[Girisgreencrazeiful]

@iSpeed09 what do u mean by over banked?

[iSpeed09]

@Girisgreencrazeiful it's a turnaround that turns over horizontally more than 90 degrees

here's an example:

the giant turnaround at 0:14-0:18

[Girisgreencrazeiful]

@iSpeed09 oh i see now yea those are awesome i was just on it yesterday so fun

[lizzyxrox]

@iSpeed09 aww crap i clicked thumbs down instead sorry

[francisgaribayABC]

@lizzyxrox Good job :)

[themep18]

My record in 1 day is 140 times in a row BEAT THAT

[trevercapito12]

@themep18 Ok...141!

[MRfreshiefresh]

@trevercapito12 NO lie....210...i went when it was closed to the public and private for a few people...AMAZING

[trevercapito12]

@MRfreshiefresh Oh cool! Ya i was just joking i really have never even been on Xcelerator but i am going to Knott's for my bday

[KidGangstaVEVO]

@trevercapito12 Happy Birthday.

[trevercapito12]

@KidGangstaVEVO Thanks but it isn't until May

[KidGangstaVEVO]

[trevercapito12]

@KidGangstaVEVO Cool

[dalejrfan800]

@themep18 You can't be serious?

[sickkris]

@themep18 LIES!

[antonnTO96]

did it 11 times today

sick ride

[failureforlife]

@antonnTO96 That's wat she said

[Sixflagsfan6]

Xcelerator opened before top thrill dragsters and king da ka opened

[palwi1990]

damn this ride goes high but i aint scared

[GuitarHerolllrocks54]

Kingada Ka And Top Thrill Dragster Got Together.. Got Busy.. And Had This Bad Boii :D

[CrackeTheSkull]

@GuitarHerolllrocks54 Yeah, this coaster is just minature kingda ka. Only with some badass banking to follow. It's still pretty fun to ride, though.

[tig3r50]

is this ride scary?

[RollerCoastersRule1]

@tig3r50 Not really, if your a freak bout coasters ( like me ) you will love it, if your kinda afraid or coasters i suggest trying out boomerang first, Good Luck!

--RollerCoastersRule1--

[tig3r50]

@RollerCoastersRule1 LOL thanks the only scary rides i been on are ghost rider and siver bulllet !

[nickj230]

@tig3r50 not at all. well the first time i was like no way, but after that its so easy, i could take a nap while doin it

[hotpink910]

it's such a cool feeling when you get to the top! it's like your floating for a split second.

[codandghmaster]

on the takeoff its so fast it feels like star wars veichles lol

[symileysuperfan]

i went on this my bro chickened out lol o_0

[R1derlin]

I just went yesterday rode the ride twice :)

[MetalKillJoy]

@R1derlin is it scary please tell the truth :)

[R1derlin]

@MetalKillJoy not at all, its accutally really amazing... the feeling of the acceleration within seconds you dont feel the drops at all very fun ride 2 thumbs up this was my favorite ride there the one in Ohio was better but this one is good too.

[IntaminFanboy]

@MetalKillJoy The ride itself isn't very scary, but the anticipation for the launch is intense. I love the ride because of the launch, and it's the anticipation for the launch (as well as the launch itself) that really makes it the ride that it is.

[nickj230]

@IntaminFanboy i got a bad headache cuz like right after it launches my head slammed back into the headrest

[IntaminFanboy]

@nickj230 Ouch. That sucks. I did that on Superman: The Escape at Six Flags Magic Mountain, so I (literally) feel your pain. lol

[iSpeed09]

just my luck; as soon as i decided i wanted to ride it again, THE ACCIDENT HAPPENS. crap it all; stupid cable snap X(

[iSpeed09]

@iSpeed09 btw, this is a GREAT POV of Xcelerator. Keep it up coasterforce! X)

[starzful11]

was this before or after the accident that happened please somebody answer me because i am going this weekend and i really really want to ride it please anybody answer me I AM BEGGING

[EastCoasterGeneral]

@starzful11 I filmed the video before the incident & I think the coaster is still closed. It was 2 weeks ago when a friend of mine went.

[starzful11]

i thought this it was still gonna be closed until April 30??

[starzful11]

wait i thought xcelerator was closed until April 30 im confused

[Creapiano]

not the track, but if u compare the 'LAUNCH' bit with all the other LIM coasters, stealth is the best(strongest launch). not my opinion, but as a fact.

[richardlerwill3]

@Creapiano It's not LIM, it's hydrolic, they're very different mechanisms

[Creapiano]

@richardlerwill3 oh my mistake, anyway is LIM used for the breaks? if not what coasters use LIM?

[richardlerwill3]

Maverick and iSpeed.

The breaks on xcelerator are eddy-current brakes.

[11kidkid]

this is so short i wanna ride it

[azzerishere]

arnt they the same cars as rita queen of speed at alton towers? and what are the bad publicity reasons

[ilovelittlebit]

My Dad LOVES this ride!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[mattpop60]

the park is stil open

[devil8988]

thank you

[thatissport]

stealth at thorpe park should have been built like this, lol!!!

[Quashroom]

with an extra bit at the end :)

[devil8988]

i mean what state is this in???

[nickalexrock]

California

[EastCoasterGeneral]

@devil8988 Los Angeles, California to be more specific.

[gameplayer951]

best 30 second roller coaster in the USA!!!! w0000t! i love it!!

[nickalexrock]

storm runner kingda ka top thrill dragster so no

[flytallerkin]

I was watching the show Brain Rush, some of you might've seen it and they used one of my favourite coasters :) i was so exited

[dietcokevan]

Xcelerator is just PURE 22 seconds of awesomeness. One of the most intense launches in the world followed by an awesome few seconds of airtime! I get ejector in the back :D

[TheFerociousFeline]

It's a shame. D8

I wish I got to ride this when I went on summer vacation.

[Aerosmithfan8]

I REALLY WANNA RIDE IT!

[whitcool]

how fast does it go?

[trainlova12]

89 mph

[devil8988]

where is this at???

[trainlova12]

knotts berry farm

[devil8988]

so its like king da ka but more and goes the other way

[CodGod187]

omfg this is my place

[TurboIceX]

It looks like Top Thrill Dragster, but with more added, which is pretty cool.

[Rulingtomax]

Isn't the ride closed? Good POV too.

[TWD98]

I thought this was closed till December?

[EastCoasterGeneral]

@TWD98 I filmed this before the incident.

[KidFromTheCourtFilms]

what was "the incident"? i didn't hear about it...

[CoasterFan927]

type in cable snaps on roller coaster ride injuring two into youtube and watch the video

[MuSiCsoccaCJ8]

what incident?

[EastCoasterGeneral]

The launch cable snapped a couple of months ago & the ride has been closed ever since.

[persianking44]

So this was filmed before the accident?

[EastCoasterGeneral]

Yes.

[mc2a2k8]

When did they open it back up?

[EastCoasterGeneral]

I filmed this video before the incident.

[AudiABTr8]

@EastCoasterGeneral What "incident"?

[EastCoasterGeneral]

@AudiABTr8 The launch cable snapped & the coaster was closed for months.

[ahoff92]

why all the publicity??

[DMCoasters]

@ahoff92 Because the launch cable snapped...there's a video of it on YT.

[MuSiCsoccaCJ8]

this is the ride they use in brainrush.
