Tormenta Rampaging Run is redefining what’s possible for dive coasters—and one of its most ambitious elements is the Immelmann inversion.

Standing 218 feet tall and taken at 87 miles per hour, Tormenta’s Immelmann is the tallest roller coaster inversion of its kind in the world. In this video, we break down how the element works, why it’s different from a traditional loop, and how a maneuver originally developed by World War I fighter pilots became a defining moment in modern coaster design.

Featuring on-site interviews with Six Flags Over Texas leadership and an aerobatic jet pilot, this deep dive explores the physics, forces, and engineering behind one of Tormenta’s six world-record elements—and what it means for the world’s first giga dive coaster.

Founded in 1978, American Coaster Enthusiasts (ACE) is a nonprofit organization of more than 7000 members from 16 countries.
