- A full in depth review of the Oath of Kärnan, an absolutely insane Gerstlauer hyper coaster located in Northern Germany. This ride is unlike any other I've ever seen, and simply put, is not talked about enough!

Regular person: My heart is thumping because I’m scared of the ride
Taylor Bybee: My heart is thumping because I’m about to find out what row I’m In
I agree, Kärnan is stupidly intense and fast! I wouldn't say it's rough, one of the train has a bad vibration but the others are generally fine (not glass smooth though but I wouldn't expect it to be).
COASTER BOT I must've gotten that same train ever time then😂
No Gerstache? Saw would be a great ride without it. I swear that first drop inside is so forceful it feels like the car's been physically pushed down...
@@visionist7 In my opinion, the best first drop in germany is on Expedition GeForce in the back row. Espacially if you are riding it for the first time.
@@accountdeactivated5486 point taken. When I ride it I'll choose the back row first
Yes Harry, your favourite coaster must be good in your opinion.
Gerstlauer Hyper for Michigan's Adventure 2020. Start the hype now.
More like 3020
Felice Graziano more like 3030
I honestly think they’re gonna get a Raptor soon.
More like never
Start the hype for Gerstlauer Hyper for Cedar Point 2022.
Coaster enthusiast's hearts don't thump because of the rollercoaster, but because of what row they'll get!
That is indeed very accurate
You did a great job explaining how riding this coaster feels! I've done it for the first time a couple weeks ago and the whole thing just stuck with me. I think "insane" really is the best word to describe it. Our second ride was after it got dark out and the train actually has lights on it which are already on when you're inside the tower. Imagine being able to see while *the thing* happens! Also, the ride felt even more intense and fast in the dark. Definitely one of the greatest experience I've ever had on any ride.
HAHAHAHA! Hearing you Americans pronounce Hansa Parks Coaster Names is the funniest ever. Im german,so here is an explenation:
Dare Shvoor des Carenan
Dare Flooch von Novgorod
Got it?😂
that is actually pretty helpful lol
Coaster Studios also the w is pronounced as a v
Imao, I knew it, I'm not German and I didn't watch a video!
Everyone in my state is pressured to take Spanish instead of any other language
God-tier Basement Dweller Southern California
My #1 coaster of all time!
I reckon this ride is one of the most overlooked coasters in the world... I do think the first elevated part looks odd, but after that it is just so quick and intense. Im hoping to see more similar rides by gerstlauer soon.
I love your reviews dude haha your excitement for the rides always shines through.
Honestly love how you pronounce the name of the ride.
Karnan ;D its Kärnan not Karnan xD
Der Schwur des Kärnan - dare shwoor dess care-nun
Another excellent review! Good coverage of every aspect of this very unique ride :)
Best coaster ever!! I’ve ridden it this year, and was absolutely blown away by Kärnan! Everything you say in this video is right, it’s amazing! #WeNeedAKärnanInEveryPark
Great Review of this awesome ride!
I'm so lucky to have this thing at my home park.
Had a blast riding it with you!
So glad that you liked my favorite coaster. Many enthusiasts criticize the ride for being rough at some points and because of the long lift
Taylor you have a really taught me to ride in the back row on a RMC and I love it

Great Review! keep up the awesomeness!
I always gets so happy when he mentions lagoon, especially cannibal cause that’s my home park and the only amusement part in Utah so I always feel so proud of my park and their in house roller coasters
It is so nice to see more and more european videos!! This coaster has been My nummer for 3 years now!
As a resident of Schleswig-Holstein I still need to process the fact that people from all over the world are now visiting Hansa-Park. Until they opened "Fluch von Novgorod" (Curse of Novgorod) back in 2009 the Park was widely considered a pure Family Park with the only more intense ride being Nessie the Schwarzkopf Looping Coaster.
They still need a Wooden Coaster though... We're having too few of those in Germany.
That's funny. I've been to the park yesterday and this is excactly what i thought. Maybe GCI-Wodan-Style in a 'more' family friendly way (not as tall, as fast, etc.). They can't add just another thrill coaster that's as thrilling as Kärnan. The biggest group of visitors in the park are families with kids around 3-10. They need to add something that's for this group as well. As much as i would like them to go big with their next coaster, i don't believe in it. Question: Would a GCI Woodie be less durable at Hansa Park because of the salty sea air? I don't know!
@@johanneskerkloh4340 Depends on the Coating and the level of maintenance I guess. If they screw it up like the guys at Heide-Park the coaster would unlikely make it far past 10 years before a total overhaul would become necessary. Then again steel does also corrode easily in such a climate so the Park should already be used to tightened maintenance schedules
This is the infinity coaster model that Gerstlauer came up with a few years ago, and it is literally the only infinity coaster from them that is to this scale. It's insane, and there is nothing like it. Sure, you have HangTime at Knotts' Berry Farm, which has that 96 degree drop and a unique layout, but really, I think this is the most unique and best infinity coaster Gerstlauer has created.
If only Smiler had this sort of height to play with. Really wanna ride this now
Uhh, Hangtime is a dive coaster. It holds you over the drop.
@@visionist7 if only Six Flags or Cedar Fair want to one-up Smiler that much...
But then again, it would quickly deplete the marketing gimmick for "most inversions in The Americas/North America/USA" at 10-14 inversions
@@swickzy9250 but the model is infinity coaster
Hagan Werner so its the Infinity model but acts as a dive coaster
The theming looks so cool
Glad to hear that you liked it! It's my favorite ride in Europe :) But I don't know why not many people talk about it or like it. It's just insane!
I rode it today and it was reeeeaaally good!! Probably the most intense Coaster I've ridden. :D
What should I say. I had over 100 rides on Kärnan meanwhile. The coaster is just awesome. I really love it and yes I still love the freefall part and I do not want to skipp it. I like this moment when the music gets more dramatic and you go up again and then you fall down. Yaaaah.... insane coaster!
My favorite coaster so far. This thing es just epic 👌🏻
It's one of my favourite Coasters!
I lovvvved that ride. Best noe ive ever ridden!!
Funnily enough, when I rode it with my family (and a friend), we actually got selected for the first row! The problem was, that my sister didn't want to go on the first row, because she thought it was too scary (don't judge her, please). Fortunately, we got permission to go to a different row.
In the end we enjoyed our ride, but my mother got a bad headache and didn't want to ride any more intense rides for the rest of the day, except for her favourite - Nessie.
Awesome review!
has to be my number 1 roller coaster. simply because of the complete experience.
As an American who has been speaking German for 6 years, you definitely tried your best Taylor 😂😂
Ich fand es cool - gibt so viele Reviewer, die das gar nicht erst versuchen ;-)
I rode this thing like a month ago and I agree, it was incredible! But it was very crowded that day, so I only got to ride it two times. Both times I got put in row 3 just like your 5 first rides. And by the way, it goes vertical.
Bro, on an empty day with basically 0 waiting time I was put in row 3, 7 times in a row... row 3 is the worst row and it's like a curse man.
The theming really seems to steal the show on the awesome ride, between the typical SFX and the unique architecture. Is the entire park like that? It seems pretty elaborate, maybe not Orlando-type stuff, but definitely around the level of something like Busch Gardens or Jungleland Express, formerly at Six Flags Great Adventure.
Late answer but anyways, yes, most of the park is like that. The theming on Kärnan is the second best in my opinion, but believe me the video only showed like 1/8 of the theming in it. it is insanely well executed. The best theming in the park imo is in Der Fluch von Novgorod, which was also build by Gerstlauer, it all just fits in perfectly. Nessie, which is a really old looping coaster recently got a new Station, Theme and Soundtrack so it also is really good. These are the three main coasters in the park, all perfectly themed. Other rides in the park are also well themed, but not as high level as these three, which is reasonable i think. Overall in my opinion Hansa Park's theming is right on top of what you'll find anywhere. Definetly worth a visit.
Looks awesome.
I watched this wonderful video in the khe. My mother is not the best in English but where you said Der Schwur des Kärnan has laughed so well. For that you are American you can pronounce that really well. what you have to practice is Schwur. but that is complain at a high level. Keep it up, I like your videos
I've rode der schwur des karnan at Hansa park yesterday and you're right. This is the best rollercoaster by gerstlauer and it's for my opinion the best rollercoaster in Germany. I've rode it on the front and on the second row. That hyper coaster was so much fun.
Great video! (...to be honest, as always..;) Luckily i was able to get some audio from the inside of the tower during an maintenance stop. The ride Op‘s, cool dudes by the way took us to the inside of the tower during reboot and let us take pictures. I used the chance to get this great audio captured.
Rode this finally today for the first time. Only had two rides, but was lucky enough to get front row and back row.
As someone who knows a lot of German, I can say that the way you pronounced the name of the ride, that was actually pretty accurate.
I'm waiting your top 50 coasters in the world after the european trip!!
my nr.1!!!
Taylor that non-inverting sea serpent is called an octopus arm by Gerstlauer
They do have a video now, when you’re on the lifthill, which makes it more dramatic.. This is my favorite roller coaster on our trip, and we did Europa Park, Phantasialand and Hansa Park.. 2nd best must be Taron and then Wodan..
Today I did Kärnan 8 times and I think the rows are not really randomized. At lane 1 and 2 (on the leftside in the room where the rows get chosen) there will always be a row which will be assigned with the front row. It's defenitely a front row ride and with all the theming, lifthill and what happenends inside it's for me one of the best rollercoaster I've ridden. Better than Taron for me :)
Front left seat has stupid ejector-lateral-whatsoever airtime when you shoot up the cobra roll Element. Your body wants to go straight into the sky and make you meet god meanwhile the Coaster forces you to the down right. I was legit screaming because of how intense the train pushed me over this, very nice! Back row left seat is also bonkers when you Enter the first drop, you really get leveled around that twist and are out of your seat the entire Fall. Really awesome coaster with amazing uniqueness
Ur my favorite youtuber. I wish I could see you one time.
I have ridden it this summer and really liked it (top 2 in Germany)
Sadly it has a shitty capacity.
Great review but I'm still wating for GeForce I Love this ride so much😍
The pronounciation was actually pretty good ;). And hell yes, this coaster Rocks and in my Opinion, it's the best one in germany besides EGF
Some of these European coasters look AMAZING!
I'd love to see a top 10 Infinity Coasters list! You know... if you're board... during a pandemic
Rode it friday, spoiler free and I absolutely loved it! Hard to decide if i like this more or Taron.
My first Hypercoaster!
I’m so happy I have a saison card for this park and I only live 20mins with the car away .haha and the picture in Kärnan … I planned with my friends a pose and the picture looks very fine 🏋️
Canada coaster fan bangs on about this ride all the time
Does the dumbwaiter where you place your loose articles have buttons for it to go up and down like an elevator?
Are the restraints tight for large people like shambhala
I wonder if the takibisha clone that’s coming to NJ next year will be sort of like this.
I love it when you say stupid fast
No, we need more Lech Coasters here, or any of the new Vekoma models. I just REALLY want to see one of those here in the U.S.
i love the ride
My #1 and Top 10 worldwide for sure .
Even though hangtime is short its a good coaster
Give it a 10, it’s not rough at all, just some really brutal direction changes, but these are fun
i would say its the german intimidator 305 with theming. since nothing in germany gets as close to waht i would expect i305 to be (i have only ridden coasters in germany and denmark). expedition ge force is more about ejector airtime while silver star is all about floater airtime and taron is just something diffrent in itselv. if you want youre best chances at a front row ride the waiting line in the row deciding room that is to the complete left has given me 1st row rides the most in my ca75 rides that i got on it while it was my home park.
I'm actually going to hansa park this year and I'm definitely not going on kärnen since I have asthma 😅
They had a carousel that had you as high as the observation-tower, and it was fairly popular.
But because that massive brick block changed how the wind goes across the park they had to tear the carousel down :/
This was the first ever rolercoaster I rode xD Guess it took my fear straight away
Next; To visit the ACTUAL Kärnan in Helsingborg, Sweden :D No rollercoaster there though.
i rode it 50 times since it opend and as far as i have experienced (i have (due to a breakdown and last ride of the day) experienced the assigment 52 times) that youre best chance for 1st row (best row(if you are on the outer left/right seat)) is the very left zone.
waited almost 1 hour to get on the coaster, and then in the building u just keep going up then down up down and then it starts without expecting it and that makes it even more scary.
In the front it's more rough as in the back.
But the word 'family thrill ride' is maybe a little bit too low if you sit in the last row and you ride through the overbanked turn😅
Germany has also the "Silver Star" in South Germany. They both has the same height.
See, I’m one of those people who like to get a feel for a ride before going on the most intense row, so if I really like a coaster on a middle row, I’ll be like yeah cool, I’ll try a front or back row, so I imagine I would be especially nervous going on this 😬
Unpopular opinion: In Kärnan I really prefer 4th row as the ride is even more intense there :D
I guess the main reasons why not so many people talk about it is because a) It isn´t in America, b) we don´t have nearly as many coaster enthusiasts that actually talk and make content on the Internet and c) because it is made by Gerstlauer. To me it feels like that many Enthusiasts just don´t see them as one of the companies they whant to see build a new coaster, at least not yet, I guess the mindset of many is "Oh, it´s just another Gerstlauer Infinity" without ever realizing how great the ride actualy is.
I was lucky when I went, I got assigned the 1st row twice then the back row!
Fun Fact: The tower of the coaster has twice the height of the actual "Kärnan" tower.
Dude, same row 5 times in a row on a four row ride? That’s literally a 1 in 1000 chance of that happening!
They actually installed a screen at the top of the lifthill facing down. Don't know when that happened
AHHHHHHHHHH U REVIEWED MY #1 AAAHHHHHHHHH
Going to Deutschland this summer. I wish I could go to Hansa Park, but it's a five hour train ride away from Berlin :(
whats your favourite gerstlauer coaster?
this
Kärnan is a beast...
So row 3 is the new row 6?
Are you gonna go over the Knotts announcement when it’s out?
Probably not.
They have a similar ride at Knott's Berry Farm California it's intense.
Which was smoother, this or the smiler?
Josh Kirkham Smiler. But to be fair I only rode Smiler in the front row so i'm not sure if it's rougher in the back like I know it is for Kärnan.
Go to row three!
I am no expert in rollercoasters, but I think the reason gerstlauer didn't do anything like this in america is, that gerstlauer may 'only' contribute the manufacturing and exact track layout. The vertical lifthill inside the tower with a backward drop is stuff hansa-park has requested. And I think that also much if not all of the theming was initiated by hansa-park.
Your my favorite CZcams channel and
Micheal Collins you’re
I have been waiting for months and ... what??
michael please.. it's been 5 months... im starving..
even though karnan doesn’t look like the best coaster in europe (i think it might be #3 in europe) but if i went to europe and went to da same parks as u, der schwur des kärnan will be easily my most anticipated european coaster mostly becuz of the tower
Ayyy
You should do another top 10 manufacturers. (Unless you’re not doing top tens anymore).
whats your favourite gerstlaur coaster that has 14 inversions and is got lots of yellow on it and is within a mile from Nemesis?
NotANoob Smiler is actually my 2nd fav Gerstlauer so I mean🤷🏼♂️
Coaster Studios eyyyy, i was kinda expecting you not to like it for some reason? lmao
How many trains does it run
2 or 3
Hi Taylor, could you add metric values to the info above? Having to convert them distracts me too much of watching the video since this is a European review I can imagine many people watching this have this. Apart from that, good video as always
Around 73 meters tall and 129km/h for speed.
One of the most intense roller coasters you've ridden? Wow!
But not Skull Mountain level of intensity, right?
Wayyy more intense imo
Skull mountain is tame lol
Bruh he's joking, look at his name
Review Nemesis next!
Maybe the intention behind the photo being on the break session is “to capture the face of riders after all the ride”. Still a questionable choice though
