... Six Flags Fiesta Texas has welcomed a world first to its theme park, a Batman-themed 4D free-fly coaster.

On of the most innovative rides in the history of Six Flags, the eight-seat wing coaster uses 4D technology and beyond-90 degree drops, giving riders a weightless feel with magnet technology flipping them head-over-heels to create the illusion of flight.

Developed by US-based ride manufacturer S&S Worldwide, Batman: The Ride propels riders straight up 120ft (36.5m) before sending them along a 10,19ft (311m) track, which includes at six flips generated by the magnet technology and two beyond-90-degree drops.
