  • This looks like it was recorded a very long time ago because Goliath was not even there

  • not much of an escape if you end up where you started

  • Simple but fun. Definetly not my favourite. That'd be the Incredible hulk coaster.

  • OMG hop off Super man was the first ride ever built to reach 100mph in 6sec. Give it some love

  • well that looked boring.

  • Magic Mountain is re-opening this as Superman: Escape From Krypton for their 2011 season. when they re-open it, they will have brand new, lighter trains and the ride is going to have a better hourly capacity. it's not getting torn down, just improved

  • @cannibalonXthedead will you still be able to ride it, or is it closed?

  • @supercj8899 it's re-opening in 2011. sx flags magic mountain is even gonna run all the trains backwards now. it's be really sweet. but yes it is going to be fully operational in 2011

  • U forgot one important thing... the cars will be turned BACKWARDS.

  • @sunvalleykid97 no, i said that in the second comment i posted. it's ok, you probobly just overlooked it. the trains are being redesigned its gonna b so much nicer probobly

  • @sunvalleykid97 ANNNND , It Will Be Going 104 MPH..... AND Reaching The TOp OF Thaa TOwer!

  • it doesnt actually look that fast. For u that have been on it, is really fast?

  • @dressaniba Oh it's a lot faster than it looks on this video

  • @trevercapito12 I believe it

  • @dressaniba Ya it just has a long launch section and unlike Kingda Ka and Top Thrill Dragster where it keeps accelerating, this seems like it just stays at it's top speed for a while. But it still feels really fast!

  • When you get to the top it would be so funny if Superman said "hi im superma - hey where you goin?"

  • why doesn't it take you higher?

  • this looks pretty dissapointing.......

  • omfg!!!

    where is goliath?????

    *sob*

  • @ZzAWESOMEzZ this must of been in the 90s Goliath was built in 2000 something

  • This ride was not removed anyway the cool thing about this ride is that it is done with magnets

  • i heard a rumor that this ride was removed is that true?

  • @jordanb7624 it is SBNO (standing but not operating) but not yet removed.

  • wow this was way back when goliath wasnt even constructed yet.

  • hell yea

  • whoa!100milesperhour hey i wish it could go up and lift you and drop backwards

  • lol 0:15 "WUT?"

  • how tall is the ride and how tall does the coaster go? b/c it looks VERY crappy -.-

  • that shit goes 100 mph

  • ooooo thats nuttin -.-

  • it suks now it dont even go 100 it goes like 80 90

  • it's 450 ft. tall and goes 100 mph which was record setting when it was built 12 years ago. Unless a ride can grow in height and become faster with time, every ride is gonna look crappy eventually

  • wtf its not that tall

  • apparently it's 415 ft. Sorry for the 35 ft discrepancy. The speed depends on the weight of the people in the car.

  • thats it? =0

  • thats the whole ride? [nice vid too]

  • Yes...that is the ENTIRE thing. It's fun, but SO not worth the hype.

  • What I hate about these shuttle coasters is that they never take you right up to the top of the tower, and it seems a bit of a waste.

  • @HCVS13 now it actually does this one goes backwards and reaches the top

  • holy crap looks fun

  • Superman at 0:16

  • suck your balls spammer

  • Sorry, I usually don't send them, read the end bit... :|

  • Its not real. OMG your so gullible.

  • this ride would be badass if you sat in the seat like the superman ride at six flags great america

  • Remember being a really little kid when this ride first opened. It was on every coaster show and was THE SHIT. 0 - 100 mph in 7 seconds!? That was fucking crazy. Now looking at it its almost laughable. We can now go faster in half the time, and the "L" is soooo boring! While the launch is fun it cant be as intense as TTD or Kingda Ka.

    But until 2000 this coaster was the cream of the crop. Pretty historical actually.

  • your all stupid, ride Jr Gemini at Cedar Point and you will have some real fun I thought that it was better than Millinuem force and TTD, I ride that like 435435 times every time i go to Cedar Point.

  • Superfag the escape sucks, why dont you go ride flashback if you want some fun? your all retared

  • ahahahahaha

  • flashback closed a long time ago.

  • lol i know doucher, go ride pysclone then.

  • that closed too you idiot. what? do you live in the past or something?

  • pwnt

  • By the way, your the retard because you can't even spell retarded right. Haha.

  • haha, you don't even have a cock.

  • haha grow a pair kid. thats not even possible.

  • nigger

  • @kalcapone1 i think youre asking for a concussion if you ride it. nvm u commented 2 yrs ago, but its better to ride a crappy ride than it is to ride a ride that would almost kill you

  • If you think logically, they should rename the ride Superman: The Failed Escape

    great ride though!

  • Ok i am dieing to know what the truth is about why superman dosent go to the top.

  • i luuved this ride its soo fun and fast;=]

  • wow umm that looks really wimpy but i dunno i didnt go on it it culd be good :)

  • looks slow on da vid but its NOT!

  • This ride was pretty fun. :D Well, except the fact that I waited in line 30 minutes for a 30 second ride...

  • A 30 minute line at Magic Mountain isn't long at all, I primarily like this ride because it usually has the shortest line at the park. Most coasters don't last that long compared to the time it takes to traverse through the maze they call a line anyway.

  • why all the fighting you silly cunts fighting over nothing just a fucking video?packys!

  • love the videos

  • ohh yes!!!!!!!!! lol

  • dont worry its completely safe.

  • no jack ass, tower of terror is the same model of coaster but thats in australia, this is the one in california

  • Superman's made by the same company as TOT, it is not a rip-off!

  • don't be a retard. no one has fallen out of it.

  • Yes there has u retard my friends sister fell out of it in australia because she wanted to go on it and was alittle shorter for it and the staff let her on without messuring her properly

  • -sigh-

    No she didn't. There has been no such accident on either The Tower Of Terror or Superman The Escape. Either you're lying or your friend is.

  • Matrixmaster, you're honest to god an idiot. Rides would shut down, and I mean any ride if something of THAT scale happened. The more you insult people in this video, you're showing how more stupid you are.

    We're not the sheepeffers you say we are, you're the sheepeffer, retarded twit!

  • your a idiot ride Gemini at Cedar point.

  • Hey I'm a member of TPR too.....don't insult me!!

  • Your lying. WEather or not someone is from a country doesn't mean they can't look up coaster accidents.

  • gardenstatenz: Don't worry about thematrixmaster2008. She/he's just a troll, just like the ones that post those "if you don't copy and paste this in 4 hours" crap.

    You know the correct facts, and she/he's just trying to annoy you.

  • OK, a few things:

    1. You're an idiot.

    2. The Tower of Terror has only 1 track, where this has 2 side by side.

    3. This is in America at SFMM, whereas the TOT is at Dreamworld in Australia.

    4. They were both made by the same company at around the same time, so they don't rip each other off. And besides, people shouldn't have to travel half way around the world to experience a fun thrill ride, which is why they build similar rides all over the world.

  • This ride looks so boring even if it's 100mph! It needs a couple of dips before you go up to the top.

  • If you have been on it, it gives you a huge adrenaline rush

  • Its just not worth waiting in line for. so get to the park at opening walk to the ride sitdown and you wont have to get up untill a line forms at about 11:00

  • this ride is sooo lame

  • I love this ride! It was Awsome. But my mom had to forse me on it because it looked so Scary

  • The Tower Of Terror @ Dreamworld Aust. is the same type of coaster but looks faster and higher.. Lots of Fun

  • i luv that coaster

  • This and TOT are the same actually! except TOT still goes 100mph (this goes 88 now) and it has drop rides attached! Which makes it all the better!

  • but there actually the same height and speed

  • That looks fun

  • i don't see goliath or scream in this! this must have been taken like in the late 90's!

  • like maybe when it first opened in 1997?

  • ya, cuz it looks like it!

  • it's crazy that when you're not on the ride, it is super loud, but when you are on the ride you can't here it going up

  • So I wonder if all the CP fan boys hate this ride because it isnt as thrilling as TTD and the fact that this came well before TTD. And what did CP do?..and another side to this ride with new technology...Lol...

  • and twists on the way up and down and prob about twice as high and a lot faster so id sat TTD is better

  • I know how TTD looks. Im just saying how Cedar Point fanboys arre constantly saying Kingda Ka copied off TTD. TTD while yes added completely new technology and is a different design isnt MUCH different from SM:TE. Same with KK, KK is much different from JUST the tower than TTD. KK has new technology, fairly new design, etc.

  • Actually, Kingda Ka uses all the same technology. Itamin was asked by SFGRadv to design something along the Top THrill Drasgter, but higher, and they wanted an extra hill or 2. SM:TE and TOT and all the other shuttles in the world, don't use technology at all like an Itamin accelerator. Thus the reason that acceleration is so slow with the shuttles.

  • I didnt mean in acceleration means. KK held improved technology over TTD's launching system. Same cable launch system, but just a bit improved. You can say KK is a TTD version with the bugs ironed out. Now both coastrs claim the improved and upgraded software.

  • Sorry. My brother was logged in:

  • o ok, yeah kk does have a few upgrades, the brake at the top for less rollbackls and everything. However, KK's downtime is still much worse then dragster, because the fact is most of dragsters problems have been resolved, KK still has new problems that keep poppin up.

  • Kingda ka's down time has been greatly reduced. I live in NJ and I am at GrAdv. often, and compared to the past seasons, its been pretty reliable. I hear dragster still has some large amount of downtime(eventhough it now has the upgraded technology/software). I also hear Dragster gets quite a few rollbacks a day/week, which I wish KK had more of. Lol. KK's worst problem was the accident early in its 1st couple of seasons, Dragster had a somewhat related accident with cable issues.

  • what was the accident

  • Good Coaster. Not much of a thrill, but fun!

  • lol well this ride is also 6 years older than dragster.. so cut it some slack..

  • What year did Superman: The Escape changes speed?

  • in my opinion I think Magic Mountain is the 2nd best amusement park in the world, Cedar Point is the 1st lol..im from Ohio and I just want to go to Magic Mountain soooooo bad!, California is too far from here...

  • if only i could agree more superman the escape looks fun but unfortunatly ttd rapes it

  • That's because TTD: Moderatley new.

    Superman: Old

  • haha cedar point is so far from here! :D

  • haha im the same but opposite. i live in california and want to go to cedar point sooo bad!

  • gadv man prob #1 or 2. Kingda Ka, El Toro, Nitro, Medusa, all u need. Cedar point does seem like an insane park tough

  • omfg it feels so weird on the curve up.

  • I know it goes 100 mph but it does not look like it. any way it look a lot of fun!

  • it goes up to 80 miles per hour now because of the horrific accident in 2000

  • which wun? i didnt hear bout it?

  • not sure some1 told me on this 1 vid i saw

  • There wasnt an accident, the ride used up WAAAAAAAY too much power to launch both sides at 100mph, so they only run one side at a time and at a lower speed too.

  • wrong, a girl fell out and they slowed it down to 110mph which DID NOT reach the top. And they do run both tracks every once a while

  • This ride has never, and will never, reach 110 mph. Its maximum was 100, so how could they LOWER it to 110? It goes around 80 now.

  • also, no one fell out. Don't be stupid.

  • and3themint ur most likely talking about my sisters friend she told me about it a couple of months ago

  • They stop running it at 100mph for a two.

    1. The ride just was not reliable running at 100mph

    2. Cost of running the ride is exteamly high, due to the amount of energy it takes launch up the tower.

  • Also there was no accident in 2000.

  • There was never an accident on this ride.
