The Batwing Spaceshot is a thrill ride located at Warner Bros. Movie World on the Gold Coast, Australia.[1] It opened on 20 December 2006. The ride is an S&S Space Shot, a pneumatic powered ride which shoots riders up and then back down. The rise reaches a height of 61 metres (200 ft) and riders experience a force of up to 4 Gs while travelling at a speed of 64 kilometres per hour (40 mph). It carries 360 passengers per hour, and lasts for 50 seconds. The ride opened almost one year after the opening of the Superman Escape roller coaster, which opened on 26 December 2005. The logo’s design based on the bat-signal in the film Batman Begins. However, the ride has no other similarity to that film.[2][3]
