What’s cool about the internal tower cranes is the space occupied by the tower crane becomes an elevator shaft once the crane is removed.

🎉🎉🎉😊😅

love how the thumbnail has skyrush which is basically silent

Changing the twilight zone theme to fucking guardians of the galaxy is one of the biggest downgrades imaginable.

Why do people pass out on the ride?

Thanks

I find it hard to believe the solenoid brakes are used in normal operation except to hold the cab in place while a vehicle moves in and out - can't the electric motors act as brakes too? (As you discussed in Test Track)

For some reason Colossus at Lagoon still has basically circular loops. you basically black out

I got in this ride at Walt Disneyworld in Florida. I thought I died on it. I don’t even remember what happened but i woke up when people were getting off and my mom was laughing.

It’s actually the rails of the track that are filled. You can watch a video of the tour of B&Ms steel fabrication shop in Ohio. They explain the process

Thanks, that helped me visualize how carrier takeoff and landings are made possible!

My guy, the magnetic breaking tower is not electromagnetic. Its an entirely passive breaking system. Just because it may use electric or hydraulic winches for lifting, and has magnets, does not mean it functions in the way the word 'electromagnetic' would imply. ie, using linear induction motors. Yes, I know, technically the eddie currents are a result of an electric field in the metal bars, but it is still NOT electromagnetic in function. And if the companies that build them call them that, those companies are wrong, but that doesnt give you the right to be wrong too...

You should wear gogles. You might hit a bird or a plane.

1:06 absolutely disgusting decision

i have a fear of heights and a few years ago my friend and my mom and my grandma convinced me to go on it and i had a panic attack 💀and a bunch of little kids rode it with no problem 💀💀💀

I went on the ride and I just laughed I didn’t even scream

0:10 The guy counting down sounds like the most depressed person in existence

Went on parisland Paris version scared me big time

Angular acceleration

I thought something was different. My first time was at Disneyland before the name & theme change. I just got back from Disneyworld and I was like it was not like this.

FUN FACT: if you're a GM employee you get a free fast pass to the ride any time, and you can go into a secret viewing point right above the embankment.

yay physics. Boo VPN (if we require the VPN company to be trustworthy that's a problem)

Vanish

Next you should explain the EMVs found on Indiana Jones Adventure at Disneyland and Dinosaur at Disney's Animal Kingdom.

I am sure the "history of motion" skipped the part where GM actively bought and stopped public transport in the U.S. or how cycling has actually had a renessaince for commuting in some European countries. I alway find it cheesy when they present aerodynamic car prototypes. There is so much that could be made more aerodynamic at current production cars. It isn't even difficult to figure out. It's just that the "efficiency score" has no relevance especially in the U.S.

Always wondered...Thanks.

haha you come here to have your childhood wonderment destroyed. lols

Wife was a cast member when Test Track was coming on line . The cars flew off the two story high trac into the parking lot. After it was fixed, we (being employee) were the first to ride it before paying guests were allowed. Hinkey feeling!

It's currently 5 am. I had a question I could not get out of my head. I am now here

Never. Even if God said I’d be okay. I’d say, no you’re the devil in a God costume. Take that staff and ride on out of here. Absolutely Never.

Thanks for the vid I always wondered. There's one up in my current city and I've never been able to see the build it up 😔

Good video... I'll hard pass. Love watching though 😂

I was in Disney paris last month, I got to ride for the first time and fell in love w everything about it, went in it a few times to get to see every detail and of course everytime it did diferent things, in on of them the first thing it did was a drop (like below the loading platform/floor) what of course was unexpected and i think its brilliant. Very sad that I didnt got to see the corridor part but still my fav♡

When elevators were first made, did those elevators have redundant safety features?

I hated this ride. I don’t like free fall. It made me sick.

Art of EDITING needed..... jeez...

I've watched trebuchets on TV (Mythbusters and the like). The only thing I never really understood is how that sling at the end works. Now that I see that one end of the sling is attached to a release peg...

Do you think we'll ever land a complete rocket like they used to do in the 1950 movies like the Rocket Lunar . 🚀

I love how he used Skyrush as the thumbnail even though it has a silent cable lift.

Avatar land's floating rocks is perfectly fine lol they did a great job

Make a guardians of the galaxy mssion breakout drop tower

You say the Cathead , Working Jib and Counter Jib are installed with tie rods for support. Once the top is complete a counterweight is added. My question is do all these parts just come floating down from the clouds or do they use a Skycrane that’s always in the sky to assemble these parts ? I thought maybe this video would show that but the title is “How a Tower Cranes build Themselves so I’m guessing all that stuff happens while we’re all sleeping. I’m going to try another video on crane assembly, maybe they’ll actually show it happening while everyone else is sleeping

Given that the car is powered externally (and therefore has no batteries), how is it comparable in weight to cars with batteries?

Dude this was a neat vid !

Those watching: this is specifically designed for all of you “civilians” to somewhat get an idea of how Catapults are launched. There are a lot of flaws and a lot more shit that’s not explained in this video. And for good reason. Reading a majority of these comments and questions, a lot of y’all DONT need to know the exact procedures.

i rode it in 1999 and it one of the only rides i remember

I love engineering sm

i went on this ride (well atleast the guardians version) and i had no idea what kinda ride it was, an elevator to a roller coaster? a 3d ride? so i was just sitting and then suddenly just get launched into the air

When Test Track opened we didn't have affordable EV's that can do 0-60 in under 3 seconds... many people have a MUCH more exhilarating ride to the park these days than they will have on Test Track.
