A train full of people launches on the thrill ride Top Thrill Dragster, located at Cedar Point Ohio. Unfortuantely though as the train begins to level out, it stops atr the top, only to cascade backwards down the tower. The video is taken from right at the base of the bleachers. Youll also see the magnetic brakes slowing the train backwards as it speeds by many watching.

Check out my original music as well!

  • someone really fat got on...

  • @bigumpi Don't lie. The Dragster won't rollback because of a fat guy getting on. Rollbacks are caused from a change in weather conditions from one launch to the next. The computer records the data from the previous launch, so it believes it knows what to do for the motor to launch it again successfully. But if it all of the sudden becomes windy, rainy, or even sunny, it can change the air around the ride and cause a rollback, so they have to recalculate in order to successfully launch.

  • Why is everyone screaming? Do they really think the makers of these rollercoasters didn't think about it rolling back?

  • i think i would be the only person getting on the ride saying i want to do a roll back it just seams more fun.

  • nah listen people. ive been to cedar point plenty of times and this happens all the time. then they all get another free ride... i think

  • Dumb stuff, it doesnt go backwards. You just rewindeded it Derrrr!

    Dumb shat.

  • i'm glad that didn't happen when i rode this last year.

  • I'm not going to lie I'd actually be terrified if this ride went backwards instead of forwards.

  • if it went back it would still be fun

  • @SmashBrosFan19 i wasn't talking about this happening on the dragster as i've never been on this ride. I was referring to a situation that happened on the Mind Bender at Six Flags Over Georgia. It's an old coaster and still had a weight limit at the time.
