Re: Loudest Coaster?
The
old topic was last updated three years ago and has been locked. Everyone seemed to agree that Superman at SFMM wins hands down.

Superman The Escape! Nothing, no B&M, no Impulse, nothing I've ever heard comes even close to that ridiculous noise.

I kept looking for a jet plane, that thing is so loud.

No, it's Superman: The Escape'
QTF. Nothing is louder.

And they only run one side at a time now. I can't imagine what it's like when both trains are going! :shock:
Has never happened. They have always only run one side or the other. The year the coaster opened they tried alternating sides, but found it was quicker to just launch from one side.
I've spent quite a bit of time at the park since Drop of Doom was added and still haven't seen both sides launch at the same time, but they did do it for the commercial shoot. However you can't hear how loud it is in the video the park released.

I think #2 would be Great Bear at Hersheypark. Something about the way it sits on the top of the hill and goes down into the valley makes it even louder than all the other B&Ms.

At #3 would probably be Incredible Hulk, or at least that's what most people comment about on Youtube.

Mantis is right up there as well, but it just doesn't stand out like the these three because of all the other loud coasters in the park - especially TTD blasting off right next to it.
