I actually invented a character that operates purely on this logic out of spite toward powerscalers and WhoWouldWin fanatics. Basically, his power relies on the duality of reality and fiction; if a character is fictional, they can't defeat him. It's basically a roundabout way of saying "he wins because I made him up and I say so"

Magic Mountain:. Can I have a Strata Coaster? Six Flags:. We already have a Strata Coaster. Strata Coaster at home:

I love this series!!! I feel like it’s putting coasters who normally aren’t on the same tier together in The same ranking system, so I get to hear about coasters that are pretty obscure and janky, which is great for someone who usually only hears about the cream of the crop. That said, I second what I saw someone else say in the comments; it would be great if we could get a viper versus viper versus viper video somewhere in this series if you decide to continue it!

He should also cover Spinning Batman (the mini-suspended coaster from China) as it too has Batman in the name. Did I also mention there’s a city in Turkey named Batman?

Judging solely from POV's for a bit, as the only Superman I've ridden is the one at Movie World, but it should probably have at least scraped the top 5. It's relatively short, but packs a lot into it's layout, not to mention the theming before the launch (which is more that you can say about the Six Flags coasters). As of right now, I've got it above DCR for intensity alone, but they both make a great one-two.

I have Superman Escape above DC Rivals too. There's no way a B&M Looper of any kind is better. I've been on a few Superman's in the USA too and i'd rate Superman Escape at number two after Superman The Ride at SFNE. I'll hit the B&M at SFFT and Superman at SFA later this month. Can't comment on the Mexican one though, but will be doing a Morgan Steel Eel at Seaworld San Antonio in a few weeks. Perhaps the Morgan might push Superman Escape down to number three.

Krypton Coaster is very underrated, it gets overshadowed by Iron Rattler but it really does deliver on everything you can want on a coaster, speed, inversions, scenery and fast whippy rolls. Theming is the only real fault but honestly theming is a small price to pay for a good ride. Every part of this layout hits hard, the initial drop into the massive loop is always a grey out moment and it feels like the ride only picks up more and more speed as it continues. It does have a brake run but it barely even stops a beat and goes right into another drop picks up a lot of speed and into multiple cork screws before hitting the trim. The one thing I really like is how comfy the seats are even after 22 years of service, easily my favorite combination of seat and restraints.

Krypton coaster sfft will always be my number 1 superman ride, the first major coaster I ever rode and the ride I worked a ridiculous amount of hours at as a ride operator. This video also came out at a perfect time because just today I was having trouble remembering which superman coaster was at which six flags. Love the video.

“But I don’t really want to go to Mexico City.” Why not? It’s awesome! Great food, amazing museums, and an elite Superman. :)

so far Escape from Krypton is my only Superman credit, but it ranks pretty high because 100mph is 100mph, no matter what the rest of the layout does. Also the queue has air conditioning. If you need some time out of the sun and a shot of easy adrenaline halfway through a long day at Magic Mountain, Escape from Krypton is your friend. I also like coasters that are loud enough to injure me

Oh man, that convo between SFMM and intamin though 😂 I bet the real talks were not far off from that!

Easily one of Chris's funniest videos

There’s somehow one more Superman themed coaster I know of not in the video which is Katapul the Schwarzkopf Weight Drop Shuttle Loop at Hopi Hari in Brazil. It has a Superman logo near the loop and it has also operated at Alton Towers, Jolly Roger Amusement Park, and Kings Dominion. Really fun video still though I think I’ll prefer El Ultimo Escape over Superman The Ride but who knows.

Thanks for singing the praises of Ride of Steel at the 1:16 mark. I’m here to say out loud that hardly anyone that makes up the general public calls the coaster Ride of Steel even though it’s had that name longer than the amount of time it could legally be called Superman. It was a shame Six Flags sold the park and not Six Flags America because I believe the park would be in a better place if not for that. Probably recognized a lot more potential to retain guests from the D.C. market over Buffalo but the park also could have been doing better. Also, the licensing won’t be acquired again so I wouldn’t anticipate a name change, but I think it’s better for that coaster to have been Superman at some point in time than to not have been Superman at all if you get what I’m saying. It would be at #4 on your list if it still had its original name.

“Alas I am out of Superman” has to be my favorite line in the whole video 😂

It’s translated “The last escape” lol. Six flags Mexico is my home park and I really love that they changed the name from roller to superman krypton coaster. Everyone knew that ride as the superman for kids. Like a preparation por a more intense ride. So the change made sense

Are these parks ALLOWED TO USE the SUPER MAN name, and do they need permission and liscences to use the name? They cant just make a coaster called, SLAPPYs, and when nobody rides it, they change the name to SUPER MAN, without going thru the proper channels? Any help, thoughts and ideas?

Superman Atraccion de Acero is that low because you have not rode it. It is a floorless masterpiece, with a huuuuuge floating airtime in the middle of the track, and a small abrupt airtime before the final helix. An awesome layout. And yes, you get airtime from top to bottom at the first drop. It is perfectly a top3 coaster for this list. Not 1 of course, but 2nd or 3rd maybe... Nothing to say for the rest of the list :D

I totally agree! It diserves a better position!! I used to ride this over and over again when the park opened. First drop is insane on the back row giving you that free fall feeling that you can also get in Shambala Port Aventura. Inversions on this coaster are massive and the ejector hill after the cobra roll always takes you off your seat big time. Though, lately it feels a little harsh or shaky, but not too bad. Let see what the park has to offer for the 2023 season with the new coaster which is currently under construction.

best coaster channel on youtube!

Chris, I lost it during the Supe at SFA with all the stuff you pack in your shorts...you know that's what fanny packs are for, right? Love the video by the way.

A couple of suggestions for By the Numbers to consider: - Gerstlauer Infinity coasters - The roller coasters of Alton Towers

Can’t wait for the Batman addition to this series

Loved your video, I have ridden Superman Ultimate Flight at Six Flags over Georgia and Six Flags great Adventure, I have also ridden Superman Escape From Krypton at Six Flags Magic Mountain I loved all three rides but I think the one at Magic Mountain had my adrenaline pumping more then the other two did so in my book it’s the best great video once again!!!

You should absolutely want to go to Mexico City! 3 of the top 50 restaurants in the world, amazing museums, beautiful churches AND 6 Flags Mexico.

The only Superman rides I've had the opportunity of riding so far is the one at Great Adventure and Six Flags New England. I rode the SFNE one first, I guess I picked a good one to start with!

I've only been on Ride of Steel @SFDL, and the new train they got a few years ago is great, no shin guards, no "U" shaped lapbars.

This video was low-key hilarious in places 👏

Thank goodness Six Flags in Maryland has Superman. That alone makes my season passes worth it. Because the park is rarely crowded my son and I can get in 10+ rides in a day. This plus “The Wild One” are awesome but would love the RMC treatment on Roar and/or an RMC Raptor.

Rollercoaster idea: RMC IBOX called Clark Kent, because it’s steel but sorta disguises itself as wood

The La Ronde skit was funny, but it was actually an appropriate name for it given it was the first inverting coaster in Canada. One thing I find amusing is that it's obvious based on names and light theming what Six Flags wants to rebrand different rides and attractions for with DC stuff but can't because they need the Six Flags branding in the park's name to use it and locals are too opposed to them renaming the park "Six Flags" anything, on top of the legal issues involved in doing so due to Quebec's language laws.

Thanks for the reminder

I'd agree with everything here except for the order of 4, 5 and 6, Superman Escape I feel should at least be 5th if not 4th its launch is surprisingly forceful and it has a great layout for the small amount of space it was given, ride of steel at six flags America 6th it is just ok/good, and Superman la atraccion de acero should be 4th/5th from the pov it looks pretty damn good. This is purely based off of personal opinion and experience (I have ridden ride of steel, and escape).

Next video: roller coaster vs roller coaster vs roller coaster vs etc etc

When the ride ‘Oh no… it’s happening again’ isn’t featured in the video

I can't wait for a: viper vs viper vs viper vs viper vs viper

Gotta say, SF Mexico looks to have a pretty good 1-2 in Ultimo Escape and Medusa. Shame it couldn't be somewhere more convenient and/or with fewer air quality problems.

Six Flags New England is my home park and that version of Superman is totally the best. I've probably riding it 500 times. Awesome ride

Im just thankful that my home park a mid-tier six flags has such an elite ride. Superman obviously fits the flyers well just flyers arent my thing.

Superman: Into the Super-Verse.

Video idea: Your favorite color schemes

The drop on Spain's Superman is great, but the rest of the layout was not as forceful as I expected and quite rattly when I rode it in 2019.

Love this series tbh

You spoke Spanish very well. Great video, keep them coming!

I like the title with the “its happening again”

Great Countdown but I've not yet been on one of them. I think I agree though.

Skip the floorless coaster? The one at Great Adventure is the most chill calming ride there is. Love that thing.

If it weren’t for Six Flags being terrible at giving coasters original names then we’d never have these Airtime Thrills masterpieces. So, thank you Six Flags?

The number 6 looks a lot of fun

I’ve been on the ride of steel at SFA but I want to go on Superman Krypton Coaster at SFFT, and Superman at SFNE

Your humor is elite and I always look forward to your videos!!

I've been to Parque Warner and it's definitely my favorite Theme Park in Spain, didn't ride Superman because I'm gonna be honest, I'm scared of riding rollercoasters but I appreciated the sight of this plus Batman which is nearby. The park is great tho.

I haven’t ridden Superman at Parque Warner in the back, just 1 and 2. My first ride in the front I had a lot of room and got hang time in the Zero-G Roll before the Cobra kinda stapled me. My row 2 ride (they assign seats and my Spanish is not good enough to ask for the back, but it’s decent) could tell that it had warmed up, but that’s the only benefit. Coaster Express opens this weekend and I have a season pass for the Madrid Parks (long story about that, not good) so I have a reason to go back and get that information

1:50, I’ll just put it out there that the gift shop is full of Superman merch ironically, that was mostly new so maybe 2023? Who knows

Accidentally disliked initially, great video! Love all the extra clips 😂

Literally just went to the New England Six flags last week and it was worth it loved the ride.

I have been on your #1 pick nearly 200 times ... in fact i believe i was on the 10th trip over the tracks on the first day it opened.

Next should be Batman, then Batman vs superman and it is a big battle between all the superman ones here and all the Batman rollercoasters

The Superman rides certainly are cursed. From brain aneurysm’s to being thrown off (they shouldn’t have let an amputee on), or the tower of power removing that young ladies feet. I know there are other incidents that have occurred on Superman themed rides. Batman has only had one bad incident but I don’t feel sorry for anyone stupid enough to hop a fence to get a hat back while a ride is active. Something don’t seem to realize is when there is a vehicle traveling super fast and you’re near them it actually will draw you towards it. I won’t break down all the physics, but the same happens with cars as well if you were to jaywalk and the car is within 3 feet of you.

I've been on Superman Ultimate Flight at SFGAdv and Superman The Ride at SFNE. Superman The Ride is in my top 5. The U-bricks are pretty bad, but I just hold it up throughout the ride so I still get all the airtime. It got the U-bricks as part of the Bizarro retheme. From 2004 to 2008, it had the same restraints as the Six Flags America version. I'm not sure why they got rid of those.

There’s a park in Mexico called Bosque Mágico which is closing down at the end of August, and one of the coasters there is a Premier Rides Sky Rocket II named “Zombie Ride”. Perhaps that Sky Rocket II might just get relocated to Frontier City? It might make Chris happy.

At least for the Superman at Great America they put in some landscaping. For the previous coaster in that space, Shockwave, you could still see the parking lot spaces.

Now we need a Batman vs. Superman video comparing which coaster (Batman or Superman) is best in each SixFlags Park. 😉

I went to magic mountain as a teen in the late 90's, and and they were advertising that first Superman ride, coming the next year, or something. They had a picture of it, along with the specs, and even then, it looked really pointless to me.

Fiesta Texas gets the cake. First roller coaster I finally nutted up to rid that had inversions rode first row furthest left seat, and loved it. Rose every ride front row that day and since have fallen for the craziest coasters

Fun fact superman escape at movie world station and pre launch elements are actually in a building that was used for a special effects show that opened with the park.

You take that back about Morgan coasters! 😋

The superman at Six Flags Discovery Kingdom is one of the best rides at my home park, it's very fun and intense but the capacity is so low that it has an hour wait literally every day. I'd love to try the two floorless supermans on this list. I've heard enthusiasts say the one in Texas is the best B&M floorless out there, and the one in Spain looks really fun as well. I also need to get to Six Flags New England for their Superman. Definitely a top 5 bucket list park for sure.
