So 7 years after being closed, this utter heap of LEGEND is being relocated (after being refurbed at Vekoma) to this Mexican park, according to IAAPA.org.
To those who have never heard of The Bullet before, it was a custom-designed Schwarzkopf shuttle loop featuring a backwards launch through it's banked S-shaped station, into an insane 270-degree helix and a 65ft loop, a 131ft 70-degree tower, and then the same backwards! I found a suitably mental POV for all to enjoy.[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2KvHeglPnUs[/youtube]
While I am hoping this turns out to be true, I have to be honest about how gutted I am that Bullet isn't coming back to the UK! Still, I can't wait to see it turn up somewhere all redone and repainted!
