My favourite has to be Velocicoaster’s second launch. You go into the tunnel and the car slows down for some miliseconds, giving the false illusion of a brake run before absolutely body slamming you into your seat with the insane speed it catches in such little time and to then go up the top hat makes it incredible

Launches are actually what scares me the most. I definitely find the adrenaline waiting on a launch track a lot scarier than say hanging at the top of a drop tower, which is crazy cause those can be terrifying. I will one day fully get used to launches and not get scared of the weird feeling of intense forwards acceleration. But there are so many crazy launches, from the most intense being Do Dodonpa with an acceleration about equivalent to fighter jets launching off air craft carriers to fast launches like Formula Rossa with speeds about 3/4 of a Nascar Car, they are definitely a fantastic experience, ones you get used to them.

definitely not the most forceful (and not sure if you’ve been on it) but copperhead strike at carowinds. The second launch is happening in a double up so it’s kind of unique as well as being one of the few coasters with a stengel dive

Stealth or have you not been on that coaster yet cause I believe it has the second fast acceleration rate in the world and has nice pop of ejector air time on the the cress and leads into the drop and a call speed hill.

Hi! I usually do not comment videos, but after watching this video about Roller Coaster Launches, I just felt I had to. First, thanks for the effort that went into making this video. I enjoyed watching it a lot. The main reason I'm commenting now is that I feel you've missed out on two GREAT launching Coasters in Europe: Taron in Phantasialand and iSpeed in Mirabilandia. In my opinion ( I'm no expert, just a enthusiast) two of the most enjoyable Roller Coaster Launches in Europe. I was kinda expecting to see those in your list. No offence, just a question: is it because you're not a huge fan of the Intamin LSM-launches in general, these Coasters didn't make your top 25? Anyway, keep up the good work! Greetings from Holland!

Taron and Velocicoaster's 2nd launches just barely missed the list. iSpeed wasn't a consideration. That launch was fine, but there are several I prefer. I love the rest of iSpeed's first half though.
