10-inversion Intamin at Hopi Hari, Brazil

Wow this looks like the offspring fahrenheit, colossos, and a mega-lite! Aka a potentially kickass ride.

Just wait, Rick Perry might be just as dumb.

If he is (and gets elected), I'm moving the hell out of Texas purely out of shame.

Now regarding the ride... I think the Megalite drop is quite sexy in the context of a looper. I'm just glad that since they DID use 4 of the same inversion in a row, there's at least a turn in between to break them up and they're not just one after another... *cough cough*

I hope it ages better than Colossus!

Haha definitely. That ride is so painful!

yeah what's the problem it being in Brazil? I'm from Europe and I travel all around the world to go on roller coasters. I came home from Tokyo a month ago and it was awesome! You americans really need to go abroad a bit more often. Broaden your horizon

That's some very arrogant and small-minded thinking yourself bro. Just because YOU get to travel doesn't mean that EVERYONE has those same opportunities. Maybe you need to broaden your horizon and consider other people's situations.

As for Brazil, you all should be glad Brazil is getting a signature coaster. i'm sure coaster enthusiasts there are tired of having to travel to other continents to ride good rides. The tallest and fastest roller coaster in South America is Montezum at 137' and 64 mph. I'm glad Brazil is getting an awesome coaster. They really need it. For those that seem disappointed that its not in your driveway, try to be happy for others. I may never get to ride it, but I'm glad they can, they may never get to ride what I have as well.

One cannot underestimate the badassery of this ride.

ooooh, I might go to Brazil....I'd be excited to ride this...

I really hope that was sarcastic...

Anyway back on topic, the coaster looks awesome, but I am getting really sick of all the good huge coasters going to foreign countries that I'll never be able to afford to visit. Come on, North America and Europe, get rolling!

I'm glad to see other places finally getting some good rides!

The ratio of idiot to not-idiot is probably pretty similar with both countries

I am in complete disagreement with that statement. You may deem it slightly unfair to judge idiots by the way I'm about to, but I believe it's a pretty good estimation: it turns out that something like 60% of America (and at least 30% of our congress, though not sure of the exact number) believes that the Earth was created 6000 years ago (consequently, about 3000 years after the babylonians invented glue), that men walked with dinosaurs, and that the 6-billion-year-old rocks scientists find were put there by god to confuse us. The same number in England? I think it's about 20%, if that. Sad, really, when you think about it. If you want more info about why this is a really really terrible thing, read Sam Harris' "A Letter to a Christian Nation". It's a quick read, and will give you some good insight.

Alright, enough of that, back to the ride. I'm not impressed. I feel like these rides are just pure gimmick, and don't provide as much thrill as something with, say, 3 inversions and a buch of other cool elements. There are only so many ways you can twist track, as evidenced in this ride. Am I glad a lesser-known park might get "put on the map" so to speak? Yes. Am I glad it's not going to one of my home parks? Sort of. I'd rather get something with more originality than "inversion inversion inversion inversion inversion inversion inversion inversion inversion inversion inversion".

Weird, I believe in God yet I do NOT believe the world was created 6000 years ago because NO WHERE does it say that, anywhere. Don't be so generalizing and thick.

^ In grade school I was taught that. Even then I knew it was a load of bullshit. ...I must have been the smartest kid in my class...

Yes! We have the CBMR, Clube Brasileiro de Montanhas Russas (portuguese for Brazilian Roller Coaster Club). We promote Tours around brazilian parks, meetings and other stuff.

Same with me. I'm sick of Christian radicals making religion look like a fictional storybook with an imaginary friend named God.

It's mostly symbolic, which is why it's ridiculous to "calculate facts" based on what is written in the bible.

People just don't get it......

Kinda like how you don't get certain things...

[hyyyper]

Did you guys know they were building a 12-inversion coaster in Brazil?

WHAT!? You think it's radicals that make it seem this way?

Anyone who has ever read more than a page of any religious scripture should be able to conclude that the whole thing is a fictional storybook with an imaginary friend named God, or Allah, or Thor, or Zues, or Apollo, or Atlas, or .... etc etc etc etc and on to infinity.

Stop being silly.


aaaaaaaaaaaanyway; this ride looks cool, but seems oddly located because of a perceived lack of funds or interest in the area.

Weird, NO WHERE did I say that believing in god makes you an idiot.
