[punkglam]

Japanese are so cool, they dont scream in a scary rollercoaster ride

[SUFZDZ]

[MrTatsubei]

@SUFZDZ well, it's a park that part of the tokyo dome, if only we had amuzement parts at our stadiums

[graveler181]

I rode it a few days ago. damn, that first drop at 80-degree angle is scary as hell!

[Sparlzy]

[karinalizeth1]

[tappentiggerer]

I went on it like 5 times when i went to Tokyo. School trip from melbourne. It was so much fun! And all of them were at night, dont know where you're headed firstly.

I didn't know this ride was called "Thunder Dolphin" while I stayed at the Tokyo Dome Hotel.  Thanks for enlightening me to this ride. :D

[RYansAdams79]

[juggerbowoutback]

Hahah this roller coaster rules haha. I've been there a while ago. Uhmm it has a length of 1100cm not sure but I guess I'm right. And a speed of 130 kmph. Haha it's so cool to ride there.

[elmorockks101]

it doesnt have to be scary to scream.

lolz

just do it for funn.

[IanIan0420]

Dude, THere is no word in japanese for things like " Oh My God" or "Holy Shit"

[SimlishSammy]

@KingJaZz0

They are screaming, you can't just hear it because of the wind. That happened to me while recording once. Everyone was screaming, but when I played it back on the pc all you can hear was wind.

[parktaka111]

@KingJaZz0 lol they are screaming

its just that the rollercoaster's too loud that your voice gets drowned out

ive personally been on it and its really loud

[ldfkuhsdfkjhtgkreuh]

@KingJaZz0 Er...I think youll find the japanese built the rollecoaster.Ignoraimus.

[S4rafine]

oh yeah TD was amazing, it was my 1st time n i feel enough of it :D... just cant feel my heart beat anymore...speechless i can say

[Mattyboe]

Dude im suprised the camera didnt fall off the coaster when riding :D! i think im going to stick with the merry go round haha

[saikopuff]

this brought back so many memories man...it was so freakingly scary that i could not even scream.....hahahaha

[bigb7965]

hey articzoo

does this coaster look like its in a stadium??

really? looks like its outside to me,

NEXT TO a stadium

sure as hell not in it

and there are plenty of coasters in america that are actually indoors

[zookeychan]

It is part of Tokyo Dome City which includes the Tokyo Dome Arena, plus 4 awesome coasters, this one plus Spinning Coaster Maihime, Linear Gale and Geo Panic--Geo Panic is freakin evil it is like a Tokyo Dome remix of Space Mountain but the restraints on it are a cage that goes over your head to make you feel very claustrophobic--and the ride jerks a lot LOL but it was fun.

[badblok]

Fui lá semana passada... muito bom!

[JaCkCrIpS]

Looks realy cool, but yeh, cant be dat good, NO SCREAMS!!!

[jslim39]

looks pretty sweet until 0:49, then it looks kinda boring until the last drop

[nikkelxxx]

well you're right but don't forget the manufacturer of the coaster is from Europe, just like almost all coasters in America

[zookeychan]

Yuppers---also the team that made Thunder Dolphin also made Millenium Force, Kinda Ka and Top Thrill Dragster plus hundreds of others.

[shadowpal2]

articzoo - THANK YOU!!!! I live in America and you're absolutely right. The Japanese are extremely creative. They try to give you the time of your life and they work so hard to make their lives easier. I love everything they brought - the technology, the anime, the manga, the entertainment, the food, the cities, the life, and their culture. I can't wait to learn Japanese so I can live there. YES I'm planning to emigrate from America and can't wait to!

[rosiepenfold8]

Wow looks incredible but like KaMupGirl978 said no screaming??? Lol

[splatt3d]

How did you manage to sneak a camera onto the ride? The attendents made everyone empty their pockets before they let us on. I wasn't even allowed to carry my atm card in my pocket! Great recording - Very steady. Well done!

[sandyny]

no they suggest u to emptuy ur pockets this guy was willimng to take the risk of breaking his camnera

[lol0924]

From 0:21 to 0:24 you can get a feel of being floated up a lot in the air. One of the most awesome thing out on Thunder Dolphin at LaQua. Give a try to do hands up if you've got the guts after the first big drop. The first drop looks so scary though. Like you're asked to jump off since it goes straight down ( the angle of descent is 74 deg to be precise ) like Sheikra at BGA. At the bottom of the biggest drop it pulls 4.37g's and you could be grayed out a bit.

[KaMupGirl978]

wow no screaming? lol

[itsumonihon]

there is screaming you just can't hear it. this ride is freaking fun and the first part is super intense. the end of it leaves a lot to be desired but the initial drop is just crazy.

[lol0924]

I rode this awesome one 14 times in a row.

[itsumonihon]

you must be rich because each ride costs 1000yen - 10 bucks a ride.

[sandyny]

nanananananan buy the 1 day pass for like 2thousand yen

[zookeychan]

Or, 45 bucks for a free pass to ride Thunder Dolphin and all other Tokyo Dome City rides for the whole day---my bro and I learned that quickly--saved us a lot of coin hehe because we sure as hell rode TD more than 4 times a day---man I remember the first day coming off--I was sure I had an out-of-body experience!!!! The only better experiences we had in Japan was FujiYama and DoDonPa--but they just barely beat TD out--TD is still freakin' amazing!

[mytphoto]

good~!!!

[puceloVA]

Good coaster, but a little short.
