Typhoon, Steel roller coaster in Bobbejaanland, Belgium.
The Typhoon features four inversions including a vertical loop and double heartline roll across its compact 75-meter by 29-meter track layout.
Opening in April 2004, this Gerstlauer Euro-Fighter model replaced the former Looping Star coaster at a construction cost of 5 million euros.
The roller coaster stands within Bobbejaanland, an entertainment venue established in 1959 by Belgian performer Bobbejaan Schoepen as a simple playground.
The eight-passenger cars accommodate 1,400 riders per hour, with all participants required to meet specific height requirements before experiencing the 80 km/h speeds.
At 97 degrees, the initial descent ranks as the steepest roller coaster drop throughout Belgium, creating an experience that extends beyond vertical.
