Hurakan Condor - Now Operating - Video
The new giant drop ride at Port Adventura is now operating.

Video/POV can be found here; http://www.umwebsite.com/descargas/hc-onride.zip

I think it is pretty cool how they don't drop the cars all at once.

Looks like a fun ride. They also themed it nice.

Looks fun, and random. But I could've sworn they said that there would be special effects at the top portion of the ride.

It could also be some strobes or something that the camera wouldn't really capture in the bright sunlight.

I also just noticed that the guy who filmed the video has a nice sock tanline haha

The cam is also pointed down.. So anything in "front" of the rider wasnt in view in the video.

I love how it plummets into darkness, it's a nice effect. How tall is this sucker again?
