VIDEO: This Is the Scariest Ride Ever. Everything Seems Normal and then It Bursts Into Flames
Talocan is Phantasialand’s most famous ride and this one has got every guest’s heart racing.
It looks quite normal, like all the other scary rides that make you feel like you are risking your life for adrenaline, but that’s until the fire comes in.
This 32-passenger ride is the one from Phantasialand that people talk about the most because of the many terrifying features it boasts.
The video shows this creepy ride from four different angles as well as the reaction of the passengers freaking out in their seats.
The ride features a monster-sized statue which hails in the front-center of the ride and it looks like it’s going to attack every single time that the people are lowered.
There is also a burst of fiery flames, water spraying everyone, every single second something new and scary is happening.
According to dailynewsdig.com, If you get a chance to visit Germany be sure to check out the Talocan ride at Phantasialand is a theme park in Brühl, North Rhine-Westphalia!
Phantasialand has so many fantastic rides but we think the Talocan is enough to make anyone think twice so after watching the video ask yourself are you brave enough?
Visit Germany to see Phantasialand which is a theme park in Brühl, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany that attracts approximately 1.75 million visitors annually.
The park was opened in 1967 by Gottlieb Löffelhardt and Richard Schmidt. Although starting as a family-oriented park, Phantasialand has also added thrill rides, especially during recent years.
Furthermore, following the example of Europa-Park, they have decided to attract business customers beside the regular ones, calling it “Business der neuen Dimension” (“business of a new dimension”).
Among the park’s thrill rides is a themed Mine Train roller coaster called Colorado Adventure, which runs among some mountains in the park’s Wild West section and was opened by Michael Jackson.
In 2001 a blaze took place that destroyed two roller coasters, a theatre and parts of the Westernstadt.
It was the result of a cable fire in the Grand-Canyon-Bahn which was caused by faulty wiring.
The blaze caused a material damage of about 38 million Deutsche Mark (~ 15 mio. USD) and 70 people were slightly injured.
Phantasialand reopened the park about two weeks later and invested about 2 mio. Euro in fire safety, equipping every building with sprinkler systems.
The Phantasialand is also home to “Mystery Castle”, an indoor Ride Trade/Intamin Bungee Drop featuring a walk through a haunted castle.
Next to the castle is “River Quest”, a rapid river ride which features a lift, built by Hafema in 2002. It replaced the attractions which were destroyed by the fire one year before.
In 2002 Winja’s Fear and Force, two indoor spinning coasters built by Maurer Söhne, were built along with a new area called Wuze Town.
New for the season 2006 was an African-themed B&M inverted roller coaster called Black Mamba. We’re curious what else they can bring to the table and freshen things up.
