Mindbender, Indoor roller coaster in Galaxyland, Edmonton, Canada
The steel roller coaster stretches 1279 meters in length, featuring three vertical loops and reaching speeds of 96 kilometers per hour during its course.
Opening in December 1985 at West Edmonton Mall, the Mindbender operated until 2021, when it closed permanently after serving millions of riders for 36 years.
The Mindbender influenced generations of Canadian thrill-seekers as the largest indoor triple-loop roller coaster, setting standards for indoor amusement attractions across North America.
Riders between 150 and 196 centimeters tall could experience the attraction, which maintained a consistent temperature due to its climate-controlled indoor environment.
The fourth car of each train faced backward, creating different perspectives for riders as they navigated through loops and drops at forces reaching 5.6g.
