World's craziest wooden roller coaster: a 720-degree double barrel roll and an 81-degree drop
Outlaw Run has got a 720-degree double barrel roll, an 81-degree drop and more bone-jarring treats. The new coaster opens this spring in Branson, Missouri
Here’s the first vertical drop. Ready? It’s 81 degrees and sixteen stories down.
Outlaw Run joins 30 other rides and attractions at Silver Dollar City, a pioneer-themed amusement park, in Branson, MI.
Imagine hurtling through here: A 720-degree double barrel roll (and it’s the first wooden coaster to try this trick).
Outlaw Run is reported to be the first wooden coaster to twist riders upside down three times. Once on board you can’t get off for 1 minute, 27 seconds as you hurtle through nearly a kilometre (2,937 feet) of track.
The $10-million (U.S.) coaster built in nine spots for “airtime” that stomach-churning moment of weightlessness.
At top speed, Outlaw Run is expected to reach 109 kilometres an hour.
