Thunderbird Watch: First Lanch Video and More from Holiday World!



Earlier today (at 2:03pm), Holiday World, released video of the first ever launch of their newest coaster, Thunderbird. The video, shot during the very first test run is just a teaser though. They only gave us a 30 second clip and even then, some of that is shortened! Even then, it is still video of the first ever launched B&M coaster in the world, that's gotta count for something, right?

That said, we do get a POV look and a side angle shot, both pretty awesome. We want more, but we'll have to wait for the official, full length, POV from Holiday World in the future. Hopefully none of us will have to wait too long for that! For now, we can definitely get a sense of the speed that the launch has just how fast 0-60 in 3.5 seconds really is as you race up the massive 140ft Immelman.

So, enough talking, let's get to the video!


But, that's not all. We've gotten a few pictures from the test run earlier today and a couple more that show off the station house and theming as well!












Stay tuned for more out of Holiday World and Thunderbird as opening day keeps creeping forward by follow us on Twitter, Google+, Tumblr and Facebook for all the latest!
