The Green Lantern

Fresh News from Australia about a new roller-coaster

The Gold Coast theme park hopes that the Green Lantern, regarded as “the steepest inverted drop on a rollercoaster in Australia", will appeal to those visitors who enjoy gut wrenching, heart pounding, blood curdling action. Plummeting face-first down an “120-degree inverted drop" while travelling up to 66km/h is enough to turn some white with fear.

The ride on a 488-metre electric green track pulled “3.5Gs on hairpin bends". Oh, I am sure it is not a game for me, but to astronauts or pilots.

No, thank you, not for us either. Actually Yin Ping can't even ride a Children's roller-coaster.
