According to an article published in Sunday’s Independent, a news blog in the UK, Six Flags Magic Mountain, near Los Angeles, has just broken the global record for the most roller coasters in one park. The record of 17 was broken when Magic Mountain introduced a new themed coaster based on the DC Comics hero, The Green Lantern. For the thousands of people intent on riding this new landmark coaster, Green Lantern: First Flight, it is good to know that Magic Mountain Coupons, which allow tremendous discounts off the standard park admission price, can be found online.
Green Lantern: First Flight, which opened on June 30, is the very first roller coaster in the United States that follows a vertical track — riders move up 107 feet into the air and then begin dropping down the structure following an 825-foot track. In order to compensate for the lack of side-to-side movement, the individual pods on Green Lantern actually spin passengers independent of the track. Each pod can spin up to three 360-degrees! The article stated: “Before boarding the eight-person pods, guests pass through two “pre-show” rooms which give instructions on how to overcome anxiety and become as fearless as the story’s legend, Hal Jordan, the first Earthman to ever join the Green Lantern Corps.” With the opening of the Green Lantern, Six Flags Magic Mountain now boasts 18 roller coasters — more than any other theme park in the world. The coasters range in theme from Batman and Superman to Looney Tunes!
