@Matthew Block it depends on the experience you want, if you want a more tame ride/better view the front would be good, but if you’re the type who wants intense the back is good
It’s like the classic Schwarzkopf coasters. Shock Wave at Six Flags Over Texas is a great example. Double loop and only lap bars. Nothing beats an inversion with a lap bar
I work here and the best part is ride night where only employees are in the park 9-1am. I went on the Goliath 15x and only had to wait 30min to get on. This ride is by far the best beside the raging bull. It's amazing
I waited 2 hours for this ride and thought it was worth it. The only thing I didn't like is how short the coaster was, Raging Bull is still my favorite at the park. :)
RMC are fucking maniacs. I love it! I can't wait to see what else they come up with in the future. I think they set a new way of first drops with Medusa Steel Coaster for sure.
Actually, it doesn't. Medusa has a barrel rolling first drop (best way to put it). X-Flight does not. X-Flights drop is similar to the 1st inversion on Goliath.
The scariest thing about this coaster is that it is all gravity based, so when you feel weightless during the ride, it is actually the ride pulling you down. The wheels don't even fully clasp onto the ride. The best way to describe this would be if you were to put a piece of paper on your hand and move your hand around certain directions where the paper is reacting to the force of your hand.
Other people are comparing it to other wooden roller coasters at other Six Flags.. The thing is that Goliath may not have a big drop but it is steeper than most wooden roller coaster so Goliath beats all wooden coaster!😊🙌🏼
+Mario Rueda What are you talking about "may not have a big drop?" It's drop is very steep from personal experience and it's the tallest wooden roller coaster in the world lmao

Goliath was a lot of fun.......was more then I expected........The stall was awesome. I think they could have made the track a bit longer....... A lot of land there they could have used. Good enough to call my #2 woodie behind The Beast at Kings Island
Interestingly, this is more of a front-row coaster. Probably the only disappointment I felt was that the first drop won't catapult you out of the back row like El Toro does, but the rest of the ride kicks its Jersey-ass.
I'm pretty much a roller coaster guy for sure! I live within a hour of this particular park and will be riding this ride next week, for all those who question the safety remember this. Statistics show that you have a better chance of getting into a life threatening car crash on your drive to the park then actually dying on the coaster. With that being said I have been on all the rides at the park multiple times and in the rain, safety is the number one priority of six flags and they take it seriously. Plus as technology improves so does coasters. To be afraid is natural, but to think that engineers have created a death trap is ridiculous. I say again safety is the number one priority and you can be assured it is at six flags!!
Jose Gonzalez You won't fall out! Think of all the people who have ridden it with their hands up and haven't fallen out. The lap restraint will keep you secure. :-)
Funny thing is, Son of Beast before it was torn down was 218ft tall...and went 78.4 mph. Faster and taller than this and it was the first wooden coaster to have a loop. So although it is now no longer the record holder I think its deserves an honorable mention to have been bigger and faster than this one that everyone is so excited about.
Wow. They didn't need a lot of wood to make this ride. Apocalypse at Magic Mountain is pretty new and they even used more wood than this. I hope this ride doesn't end up falling apart.
And say hello to Twisted Colossus at Six Flags Magic Mountain it will be open next year soon can't wait to ride it its the same look as this ride goliath should be interesting
When I went to six flags they gave a map of the park and on the back of it, it said that the Goliath was the tallest, steepest, and fastest roller coaster

+FlameQuest Gaming I meant a wooden ride like this but 200ft like Raging bull. I know this isn't even near to being an average woodie with it flipping upside down and stuff lol.
Is Goliath scary? I've went on raging bull before and it was fun, but I'm still scared to go on Goliath? The main part I'm scared of is the drop, is it as bad as raging bull? Another thing I'm a little bit scared about is going upside down and falling out of your seat! Are the lap restraints secure enough? Thanks!
It is totally fine you have nothing to worry about I just voted today and it was honestly fun the drive wasn't really all that bad it's definitely mind over matter just try and have fun
I have a question can I film on any new rollercoaster what can I do to be able to do that I always want to do this film on every coaster out there do I need to get there permission to film or do I need to be in the media ?
Does it hit a set of breaks at 1:39? The car doesn't look like it gains enough speed form that hill. It looks like it slows down in that particular spot.
Sitting in the back of any rmc coasters is the best seat tbh
Niazkilam 98 moi
Niazkilam 98 first cart is the best, but I respect that is your opinion
@Jamir Gordon and you fucking fly over the top of the lift hill it gives so much ejector airtime!
@Matthew Block it depends on the experience you want, if you want a more tame ride/better view the front would be good, but if you’re the type who wants intense the back is good
fr tho the front go so slow- the back is always so much faster
I love back row pov's. they have so much more relative perspective! ~AirtimeDaz~
I went on this ride and I closed my eyes the whole entire time, and when I saw this video, I couldn't believe I went on that ride
"I need a soda"... Lol I'd need a fucking drink, blunt, and cigarette after that one!
Write Six Flags, tell them to offer those at the next media day event...
No over the shoulder restraints makes me want to ride this even more.
blasphemer9 it was so much fun
It’s like the classic Schwarzkopf coasters. Shock Wave at Six Flags Over Texas is a great example. Double loop and only lap bars. Nothing beats an inversion with a lap bar
I only trust rides with shoulder restraints
@@peachydls341 same bro
@Christopher Clark no u cant lol
went on it back row and it's was amazing! the drop in the back row feels like you're flying out of your set! best ride in the park by far
I work here and the best part is ride night where only employees are in the park 9-1am. I went on the Goliath 15x and only had to wait 30min to get on. This ride is by far the best beside the raging bull. It's amazing
Re: "I need a soda"
What you didn't hear:
Ben: "There's food and stuff over there..." (or something like that)
Me: "I need a soda"
I waited 2 hours for this ride and thought it was worth it. The only thing I didn't like is how short the coaster was, Raging Bull is still my favorite at the park. :)
Literally the best ride in the park 💕 raging bull and Goliath all the way 👌
Wasn’t even all the way up the hill when in the back so I freaked out when we all of the sudden got wipped over.
There nothing to hold on to on the ride hands up all the way.
i predict that six flags magic mountain will get something like this real soon.
And they did its the new twisted colossus
I remember when me and my dad went on this ride one hour on line but it was worth it
The first time i rode it i waited 45 mins and then the other 3 times i rode i waited 2 hours that part suckeddd
First time I road we waited 4 hours lol.
First time I waited (which was today) I waited about 1-5 minutes. I went 3 times.
My senior trip was last night at six flags and I rode it a total of 5 times. Can't get enough of that ride!
Maizza Shepard it is a good ride i have a gut felling you drank soda at the park i drink beer
RMC are fucking maniacs. I love it! I can't wait to see what else they come up with in the future. I think they set a new way of first drops with Medusa Steel Coaster for sure.
Actually, it doesn't. Medusa has a barrel rolling first drop (best way to put it). X-Flight does not. X-Flights drop is similar to the 1st inversion on Goliath.
this ride was my first time ever on a rmc i thought the back row would be less intense it literally feels like you are about to fall to your death
I rode Galioth at night on of the best rides I've ever rode
i remember going on this, the drop was so scary and i couldn’t breath for like the whole ride. i remember it being a lot faster though
Meg i have a gut felling you had an ice cream at the park
The scariest thing about this coaster is that it is all gravity based, so when you feel weightless during the ride, it is actually the ride pulling you down.

Pette Josef Ramos all coasters are gravity based...
Count the time from the crest of the lift to the time it hits the brakes. Only 40 seconds long.
Other people are comparing it to other wooden roller coasters at other Six Flags.. The thing is that Goliath may not have a big drop but it is steeper than most wooden roller coaster so Goliath beats all wooden coaster!😊🙌🏼
+Mario Rueda no
+yugioh guy yes
Johnnie G Outlaw Run and El Toro>this
+Mario Rueda What are you talking about "may not have a big drop?" It's drop is very steep from personal experience and it's the tallest wooden roller coaster in the world lmao

+Screamin Demon beast is 2 over el toro and the voyager what
I love this ride is my favorite and raging bull too❤💙
Mine is x flight! It's so fun! I also like this one, but not as much as batman.
they work so hard on this roller coaster
Back row has got to be insane!
Interestingly, this is more of a front-row coaster. Probably the only disappointment I felt was that the first drop won't catapult you out of the back row like El Toro does, but the rest of the ride kicks its Jersey-ass.

Me AND my mom didn't want to get on this shit xD we were like some "awww hell no I ain't getting on this shit"
Wow the upside down part im nervous of cuz i thought that ur gonna fall when u put ur hands up
Jose Gonzalez You won't fall out! Think of all the people who have ridden it with their hands up and haven't fallen out. The lap restraint will keep you secure. :-)
Really cuz I'm lightweight
Jose Gonzalez hahaha you seriously think YOU would fall out...?
Yea
You do realize that they would never build a ride if people were at risk of falling out...
the back row is actually the best row belive it or not
Scootastic MC yea it is
Wow this ride is dope af. The how it turns like that is cool!
Probably the best pov of a coaster...
No overhead harness…no thank you! 😂😂

Wow. They didn't need a lot of wood to make this ride. Apocalypse at Magic Mountain is pretty new and they even used more wood than this. I hope this ride doesn't end up falling apart.
IIRC: the track itself is structural and provides additional support.
Until RMC Mean Streak opens next year the back car of this coaster must have the best single 1st drop of any wooden coaster of all time through 2017.
Pretty sweet. Shame it's only 41 seconds from when the speed starts increasing at the top of the lift hill until the one course brake run.
Six Flags Great America
I love the sound of that lift hill.
I went on this this summer, it was the best roller coaster ive ever ridden :)
And say hello to Twisted Colossus at Six Flags Magic Mountain it will be open next year soon can't wait to ride it its the same look as this ride goliath should be interesting
When I went to six flags they gave a map of the park and on the back of it, it said that the Goliath was the tallest, steepest, and fastest roller coaster
If your going on it, I suggest staying in the back seat. (Alot of people throw up on this ride)
row 12 is something completely awesome! it almost Ejected my shirt right off!!!!!! definately tuck it under the lap bar on the airtime machine!!!!!!
1:20 to 1:30 had made me yell “oh, what the f*uck!“ when I rode it with my wife and in-laws. Lol my wife was less than thrilled when I did that.
rides that go straight into the lift hill are so intimidating to me
I still have PTSD after this ride...
Seems like Batman the ride. There will be long lines for a ride that is about 2 minutes long.
If that ride lasted for a second longer I would have lost my shit
I love this rollcoster so much
I feel like riding this but idk I haven't gone on a roller coaster before
DO IT.
Its fun but short ride wish it was a bit longer.
I love this coaster!
Wow this ride was amazing! Though I was so nervous when we reached the top.
It was awesome. I sat in the back seat
Omg! This ride is awesome & I love it
cried like a baby at the end.
This looks better than Kings Island's Beast!
best ride ever man ...
angus jaramillo this. is. so cool
hahaha this looks like fun.. I cant wait to go on here wit mii hubbie =D
The back seat is better than the front seat in my opinion
Awesome video!!

This ride is on my nope list XD
I hate heights haha
My favorite coaster. 2nd is Raging bull

Woodie? lol
+FlameQuest Gaming I meant a wooden ride like this but 200ft like Raging bull. I know this isn't even near to being an average woodie with it flipping upside down and stuff lol.
Going to six flags on Saturday to ride this roller coaster giant and I am super mega extra scared to ride
BEST RIDE EVER
SillyRainbowMagic Never!
Great ride, just wish it had 1 more lap
Didn't a wheel get messed up or something? They had to put a train in storage and I thought somebody said the polyurethane lining "came off".
Is Goliath scary? I've went on raging bull before and it was fun, but I'm still scared to go on Goliath? The main part I'm scared of is the drop, is it as bad as raging bull? Another thing I'm a little bit scared about is going upside down and falling out of your seat! Are the lap restraints secure enough? Thanks!
It is totally fine you have nothing to worry about I just voted today and it was honestly fun the drive wasn't really all that bad it's definitely mind over matter just try and have fun
*rode it today
Thanks! I rode it and it was really fun. After the first hill it's not so bad :)
THAT SEEMS FUN LOL I RODE GIANT AT six flags over Texas and the drop is similar lol
Does this ride whip your neck? I have some neck issues and a lot of wooden rides do but this just came out.
this ride had made me uncomfortable the whole time
feryberrys i have a gut felling you had an ice cream at the park
this was my first rollercoster
I have a question can I film on any new rollercoaster what can I do to be able to do that I always want to do this film on every coaster out there do I need to get there permission to film or do I need to be in the media ?
Media.

really fast and amazing
I need a soda...
It looks intense!
Went on this 2 days ag! Fastest, steepest and tallest wooden roller coaster in the world! Quite scary.
Enya Parchment Toro is better!
That's actually not that long, i thought it was longer. :/
"I need a soda" EleGiggle
Earlier this morning i got on in about 15 minutes!
Does it hit a set of breaks at 1:39? The car doesn't look like it gains enough speed form that hill. It looks like it slows down in that particular spot.
Nope - doesn't hit the brakes until 1:43.
SFGAmZone Yeah. I watched some more videos and it doesn't show anything there. It just seemed weird how it didn't speed up that much from the hill.
that looks so fun tbh
The new Texas giant is better, and longer, and more bank turns
