Height Of 2017 MW Coaster

[Intimidator305. 59]

This is a simple poll to see what the height could be for the 2017 Movie World Coaster.

There are two polls

1. To determine what the height will be from a business perspective.

2. To determine what we want the height to be from a coaster enthusiast perspective.

Is this poll week or something? They're starting to get annoying tbh.

I know this is probably not true, but the gc bulliten said it was 21 metres taller than superman is.

 We have a topic for the new coaster and this is going to confuse skeet if we have 20 different conversations about the same ride.  You can just ask a question without creating a poll.  

@Tim Dasco Thank you

@YLFATEEKS this poll was not created by  Gold Coast Amustments Force. This poll was created by @Intimidator305.

however it is really annoying having tones of threads for MW's new roller coaster. We have a MW roller coaster thread and don't need a thousand more.

Well superman is 40 metres which is 131 feet, add another 21 metres would make it 61 metres 200 feet which is the height of a hyper. 

Anywhere from 210-230 foot is my guess

Sorry @Intimidator305. but why would you add it 300 + feet when we know it's a hyper? ?

Well, apart from several media outlets, the fact that construction tenders (as far back as June\July) were referring to a 'hyper coaster' project at Movie World would tend to be a bit of a giveaway:

If this discussion was in the MW coaster discussion thread, I might be bothered paging back to show you the images that were posted, but since it isn't, I won't - feel free to actually read the damn thread and you might learn a thing or 40.

I am apologizing for this new poll, it was unnecessary and when created, I didn't realize the amount of polls had been made this week. I'd be fine if the moderators took this down. Also, Alexb, I had a massive mind blank. I was thinking through what had been confirmed about the coaster and completely forgot the Tenders sorry.

I'm from that generation of people who aren't still living in the past. What's all the options, but in metric this time? 

[pin142 795]

Coasters are a weird thing like TV/computer screens in that random units of measurement are used over metric @reanimated35. 200, 300, 400 feet tall all associate with a type, about the only time it makes sense to use it. Same as you don't go out and buy a a 68.5cm monitor, you buy a 27".

As for the option in metric I am sure Google can help you out

Don't I? 

Everything sounds bigger in centimetres  

[Tim Dasco 764]

100 feet is roughly 30 meters. So 300 feet is 90 meters.

[Santa07 1,023]

Yeah just count in 30s is what I do to convert. Hypers are ~60m, Gigas ~90m and Stratas ~120m

[AllegroCrab 214]

Meh, I've gotten used to feet for coaster heights, the whole hyper/giga/strata terminology is pretty catchy.

[Prequel 116]

I am thinking just over 200 feet.
