The Master Posted February 26 Report Share Posted February 26 Anyone remember the loud roar Chiller used to make when the train launched? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fetish911 Posted February 26 Report Share Posted February 26 I never got to ride Chiller but the loud ass sound Shockwave made as it roared down the track is forever engrained in my brain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GAcoaster Posted February 26 Report Share Posted February 26 It was so loud, and part of that was that it was right on the walkway! There was no avoiding it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Great Adventurer Posted February 26 Report Share Posted February 26 I was still terrified of roller coasters when Chiller was in operation, so I never got to ride it, but I do remember hearing that loud noise from the parking lot and wondering what it was from. As a kid, I thought it might have been a malfunction or something falling apart - perhaps that's what dissuaded me from trying the ride at the time! I also vaguely recall those electrical/cackling sound effects (if I'm not mistaken, they were generated near the queue area of the ride), which can be heard in the last 30 seconds or so of this video: 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yoshi Posted February 27 Report Share Posted February 27 I also never rode the coaster but remember the sound. I was standing near the ride entrance watching it shortly before it closed for good and I regret not riding it that day. I wasn't sure about the launch and the backwards cobra roll at the time as I was just starting to go on more intense coasters. That same visit was my first time riding Nitro, Batman, Medusa, Superman and Scream Machine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
