Kudos to the whole project team including Intamin, Thinkwell, JLL MENA and ALEC for their close collaboration that made this structure a success. Seeing this award-winning project being showcased on an international stage is a real testament to the passion and creativity that went into it.” GUINNESS WORLD RECORD NEWS Iraqi artist creates Guinness World Record with largest wire art that equals approximately 15 car spaces At 26, Flossie is worlds. Our team loved working on this project, pushing the boundaries of engineering design and what can be achieved. Richard Stratton, Partner and Managing Director MENA commented “We are absolutely thrilled to see The Storm receive global recognition with this Guinness World Record. As the lead design consultants, we solved many unique geometric challenges that are not seen in regular construction. From here, gravity takes over as the car winds back down the 670-metre track, taking in loops of the circular building and twisting and turning, including a literal hair-raising ride, moving upside down as it descends.Īnother distinguishing feature of The Storm is that, unlike other indoor rollercoasters, the rollercoaster and building are integrated into one structure. The first-of-its kind indoor rollercoaster sees riders hurtling up to a top speed of 77kmph, rising up to 50 metres. Not only is The Storm Coaster in Dubai a thrilling, ground-breaking engineering achievement – it is also officially a record-making one! It has been formally awarded a Guinness World Record for the world’s fastest vertical launch.
