Icon13 22 seconds of Nope




Fast forward to 1:30



It should be noted that the total time of this ride is just over 22 seconds.


It advertises going from zero to 78mph in 2 seconds.



Is waiting in line for 22 seconds worth it?


To some/many it is.

Meh, apart from the Gs you pull at launch it looks tame.

No thanks, it would take less than 22 seconds for me to suffer a heart attack.

I agree. The only attraction seems to be the launch.

I rode Montezuma's Revenge at Knott's Berry Farm in California back in 1978. About the same length ride, and possibly more fun.
