dbpedia-owl:abstract
  • Pepsi Max Big One im Pleasure Beach Blackpool ist eine Stahlachterbahn vom Modell Hyper Coaster des Herstellers Arrow Dynamics, die am 28. Mai 1994 eröffnet wurde. Zum Zeitpunkt ihrer Eröffnung war sie die höchste, schnellste und steilste Achterbahn der Welt, mit 65 Metern Höhe und einem First Drop von 62 Metern. Ihren Rekord gab sie 1996 an Fujiyama im Fuji-Q Highland ab. Danach war sie nur noch die höchste und schnellste Achterbahn in Europa. 2001 musste sie ihren Rang als schnellste Achterbahn Europas an Colossos im Heide-Park abgeben. Bereits ein Jahr später wurde sie von Silver Star im Europa-Park als höchste Achterbahn Europas abgelöst. Heute gilt sie immer noch als die höchste Achterbahn im Vereinigten Königreich.
  • The Pepsi Max Big One is a steel roller coaster located at Pleasure Beach Blackpool in the United Kingdom. The ride was originally manufactured by Arrow Dynamics, a now defunct steel coaster manufacturer, and is sponsored by the soft drinks firm Pepsi, under their brand of Pepsi Max. The ride cost £12,000,000 to build and is the second biggest ever investment for Pleasure Beach, beaten only by Valhalla, the most expensive dark ride in the world. At its highest point above ground level, the ride reaches 213 feet (65 m) with the first drop measuring 205 feet (62 m); the ride is marketed as being 235 feet (72 m) high which is the height from mean sea-level. It is also one of the longest out-and-back roller coasters, measuring 5,497 feet (1,675 m), which is over a mile in length. The first drop has an incline angle of 65 degrees and the usual maximum speed for the ride is 74 miles per hour (119 km/h). The ride lasts approximately three minutes and during this time riders normally experience positive g forces of up to 3.5G and negative g forces of up to 0.5G. The ride station is situated in the centre of the south end of the park, opposite the Irn-Bru Revolution and adjacent to Bling. There are three trains for the ride, however only a maximum of two trains are ever used, because of the loading times involved. There are five carriages to a train and six passengers to a carriage, enabling each train to carry thirty passengers in total. Riders sit on rows of two. The colour scheme for each train is the same- a silver base with three coloured bands around the side and front (amber, blue and yellow). Each train is numbered at the back of the fifth carriage, and each carriage is numbered according to the back of each section. During testing, sand bags are used to weigh the train down. This is a safety mechanism and is common practice on roller coasters of a certain height. Before the ride was granted a certificate to operate, Pleasure Beach Blackpool had to appeal to Blackpool Airport which is one mile from the park. As the ride is so high, warning beacons had to be installed on the peaks of the first two hills, including the main drop, before the ride was given the all clear to operate.
