Scream

Scream is a gyro drop tower at the Heide Park amusement park in Soltau, Lower Saxony, Germany. It was constructed at a cost of €7.5 million by Intamin between October 2002 and April 2003, repurposing the structure of the Aussichtsturm II observation tower which opened in 1992. With a height of 103 metres, riders plunge down 71 metres up to speeds of 98.3 kilometres per hour. As riders approach the top, the gondola spins, giving panoramic views of the park and surrounding area.

Scream, which has a diameter of 2.8 metres, stands on a foundation of 8 metres in depth and 10 metres in diameter. The travelling time is 82 seconds, two seconds of which are the actual fall. The deceleration phase lasts for 5.5 seconds.
