Everland’s T-Express makes a comeback to thrill riders again – Samsung C&T Newsroom

The highlight of T-Express is, more than anything, the first drop, which plummets the riders down from a height of 56m at an angle of 77 degrees, which is about the height of Niagara Falls. Before the drop, which comes after a torturously slow chain lift climb to the top, riders can take a moment to enjoy the panoramic view of Everland spread out before their eyes – if they are brave enough!

During the first drop, the speed of the train increases up to a dizzying 104km/h, and as the fall ends and the train suddenly rockets up again, the gravitational acceleration reaches 4.5G. This means that passengers experience 4.5 times stronger gravity than when they are on the ground. This intense momentary feeling of pressure is another factor that adds to the thrill of the roller coaster. The gravitational acceleration felt by F-16 fighter pilots during their mission is 6G, so riding on T-Express you can almost feel a little like flying in a jet airplane.
