2022 Goliath Roller Coaster On Ride Front Row 4K POV Six Flags Magic Mountain

Goliath is a steel roller coaster located at Six Flags Magic Mountain amusement park in Valencia, California. Manufactured by Giovanola of Switzerland, the hypercoaster is located in the Goliath Plaza section of the park and opened to the public on February 11, 2000. Its sub-tropical theme is characterized by ancient ruins of the Mayan civilization. The ride is nearly identical to Titan at Six Flags Over Texas, but it lacks a 540-degree upward helix prior to the mid-course brake run and features a slightly shorter track layout.

    I've sort of ridden this ride. Last time I was at Magic Mountain, Goliath was under construction. I got a good view of it by riding Colossus. I have ridden Titan many times which is almost-but-not-quite identical. I've never seen what it looks like from the helix to the last curve because I gray out every time. Thanks for posting the PPOV so I can get a clue.

    So many people give so much shit to Goliath, and I realize this is a super unpopular opinion…. But I love Goliath so damn much!! Yes the MCBR does kill the second half a bit, but the final helix is the only coaster section I’ve ever greyed out on, and u can’t beat a classic chain lift hill

We went out to Magic Mountain a few week ago (Over Texas is our home park), and the first thing I noticed (aside from MM being an infinitely better park) is that Goliath creeps over the top of the lift hill. Titan doesn't do that. Very odd, and just kills the first drop. At least Titan's first drop is worth the trouble. Goliath's first drop is just dull.

    Looks like a lot of fun but it also looks like it's not functioning to its full capacity. I also noticed an extreme amount of rust especially at the weld joints and bolts don't see this ride being in operation service much longer without a serious overhaul. It's one thing to do and inspection but it's something altogether different to do a metal integrity strength analysis.

    I miss in the early 2000’s when the break run didn’t have you come to a complete stop. However, I do appreciate that they added a seat belt because when I rode this for first time in May of 2001 I was very tiny my freshman year & I didn’t feel like I was secure enough. I thought I was going to have a heart attack going up that lift hill because I thought I was going to fall out. The rest of the ride was fun though after that freak out.

    I remember going on this the first year it came out. At the time Goliath came out it was the tallest full circuit coaster on Earth. It had the tallest drop. A few months later the opening of Millenium Force pretty much made Goliath a forgotten coaster for a lot of people. MIllenium Force was the worlds first Giga coaster. It’s a shame that Magic Mountain still does not have a Giga, but I digress. Goliath was super disappointing when I first rode it. It’s an ok ride now. Very smooth. Not a terrifying first drop for a lot of roller coaster enthusiasts (thoosies) but it’s still a solid drop. Titan at Six Flags Over Texas is very similar to Goliath. There’s some differences about that ride, but the biggest difference is that when you’re on Titan you have an incredible view of the AT&T and the baseball stadiums. It’s pretty awesome. Anyways, thanks for the upload! Maybe Goliath could use a repaint? And they need to fix the misters that they used to have at the bottom of the first drop. Magic Mountain doesn’t maintain the little special effects of their rides and it really shows.

People have gotten so used to them that we forgot what a less forceful drop (Goliath) was like. People can’t go into Goliath expecting an RMC experience. It’s a totally different experience.

    You never feel like you're going upside down when you are. When you're going through an inversion, you experience high g-forces that force you down into your seat, so you feel right side up the whole time. There are some coasters like Viper and Full Throttle that you feel upside down on, because they go through very slowly, but they're the exception rather than the rule.
