Le Vampire (English: The Vampire) is an inverted roller coaster at La Ronde amusement park in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, designed by the Swiss firm Bolliger & Mabillard (B&M). It is a mirror image of Batman: The Ride, however since this is not a branded Six Flags park, Six Flags' licensing agreement with Warner Bros. and DC Comics is not valid. As a result, the roller coaster has no association to the Batman media franchise and was given an unrelated name and a slightly different cosmetic appearance. The track is 823 metres in length and reaches a height of nearly 32 metres. Riders sit with their legs dangling such as on a ski chairlift and reach speeds of up to 80.5 km/hour and loop head-over-heels five times. The Vampire can carry up to 1,400 riders per hour. It was announced in January 2009 that Six Flags will be commencing the Warner Bros. and DC Comics license in La Ronde, however it is unknown if this will impact Le Vampire. The ride was closed due to an accident on July 6, 2012. It opened for the first time since the incident on August 13, 2012. 〔http://www.montrealgazette.com//news/worker+dies+ronde+accident+montreal/6895065/story.html〕 On September 3, 2015, the park announced that the ride would run backwards for a limited amount of time and become part of a new section of the park. ''Le Vampire'' was constructed by Martin & Vleminckx.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.martin-vleminckx.com/mva_web_3_018.htm )〕 ==See also== *Incidents at La Ronde *Batman: The Ride 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Le Vampire」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
