He Who Angers You's video: Kraken @ SeaWorld Orlando POV front seat

Hi, HeWhoAngersYou here. Please check out my latest POV video of Kracken. This coaster is a little older but still a good one. Also stick around and check out my other coaster videos along with a ton of other stuff right here on my channel. Read the full description of Kraken Below: Kraken (named for the fictional sea monster of the same name) is a steel floorless roller coaster located at SeaWorld Orlando in the United States. Manufactured by Bolliger & Mabillard, the ride features a total of seven inversions including two vertical loops, a dive loop, a spiraling camelback (zero-g roll) , a cobra roll and a flat spin Kraken opened on June 1, 2000. It is also the world's second longest floorless coaster at 4,177 feet (1,273 m). Statistics[edit] The 4,177-foot-long (1,273 m) Kraken stands 153 feet (47 m) tall.[10] With a top speed of 65 miles per hour (105 km/h), the ride is the fastest roller coaster at SeaWorld Orlando.[10][12] The ride features seven inversions including two vertical loops, a dive loop, a spiraling camelback ( zero-g roll ), a cobra roll and a flat spin ( corkscrew ).[10] Trains[edit] Kraken operates with three floorless trains. Each train seats 32 riders in eight rows of four. This gives the ride a theoretical hourly capacity of 1500 riders per hour.[10] The open-air trains feature seats which leave riders' legs dangling above the track.[6] Riders are restrainted with over-the-shoulder restraints (OTSRs).[13] As the trains are floorless, the station has a retractable floor for safe boarding. Theme[edit] Kraken is themed after the mythological sea monster of the same name, kept caged by Poseidon. Much of the ride is located above water, with three sections featuring subterranean dives.[6] The ride's station and surrounding area are themed as Kraken's lair. Eels are said to be Kraken's young and therefore feature throughout the ride's queue.[5][7] A SeaWorld Orlando spokesman stated "although it's a roller coaster, the theme of the ride brings it back to the sea, and to our (SeaWorld Orlando's) core".[7] Ride experience[edit] After riders have boarded the station floor is retracted and the front gates open, Kraken departs with a right U-turn out of the station. This leads directly to the 153-foot-tall (47 m) chain lift hill. At the top, the train crests the lift hill and follows a fairly level turn to the right before dropping 144 feet (44 m) towards the ground. The ride then enters the first vertical loop followed by the dive loop. A spiraling camelback (zero-g roll), where riders experience a feeling of weightlessness, is followed by a cobra roll. A banked turn to the left leads into the mid-course brake run. The exit from the mid-course brake run drops down directly into the second vertical loop. A subterranean dive into Kraken's lair is followed by a flat spin The ride concludes with a final brake run and a short path back to the station.[
