Recently the launch track was gone to make room for a new exhibition hall nearby. Only the tower is still stand.

There's a 60 meters drop tower attached behind the formula one tower but it unfinished after a Formula one project was abandoned.

Yes i noticed the ejector airtime, i was just wondering if there was some kind of locking mechanism, but the waistband is the limiter in this . WOW
Is that U in the video of the Shot Tower ?
I would like to have a transscript of what that person is telling. Or can u provide us with subtitles ?

^^ it has a hydraulic cylinder lock type but it can open a bit until it hit the lock position to give an ejector airtime. So I considered it as a secondary restraint and the waist belt is a primary.

^ The formula one had done the test run for once (empty seat with sandbags) and it failed. It has a problem with pneumatic launch and magnetic brake. They give up this project and considered it as "too dangerous" to operate.

Some year later, they success the launch coaster with the hydraulic launch system at Wonder World Extreme Park.

I would have thought the equally most terrifying part about the zipline is the fact that it's at that same park as the tower shot with the restraints that have to be tied down and the rougher than hell wild mouse.
And I'm still somehow intrigued by that sketchy Superman-like Formula One coaster that is merely just decoration and not a ride.
