    FORTY FATHOMS DEEP…read more This SpongeBob themed ride is undoubtedly the most thrilling roller coaster inside Nickelodeon Universe. I had to sneak away from the family to snag this important coaster credit (don't worry, my wife begrudgingly OK'd it and thankfully the wait was short).  The queue doesn't move fast--trains only seat 8 at a time, and with only a single car on the track most days, the line can stagnate. The coaster itself is bright teal track and a tidy 1,371ft in length - shorter than the neighboring Pepsi Orange Streak (2,680ft).  The ride lasts 2 minutes although nearly half of that is time spent on the 75ft vertical lift hill. Speaking of which, a vertical lift is unsettling if you've never experienced one before.  It's different from an elevator lift, which has you facing forward at all times; a vertical lift has you facing UP, as in the sky, or in this case, glass roof. After a brief stall at the crest of the lift hill (which comes incredibly close to the ceiling), there's a beyond vertical drop taken at 97° which gets the flame-decaled car up to 44mph.  As the car "bottoms out" at the base of the drop, true to the ride's namesake, you hit 4.5G's.  You feel it, too! This is followed by a vertical loop, a small bunny hill that delivers a brief pop of airtime, a cutback/overbanked turn (technically an inversion), and a heartline roll.  From there, it's a block brake section and a few low to the ground turns that ends with a 360° helix. The highly 3D signage is awesome too.  The coaster's based off of the Season 1, Episode 17 segment where our titular character and Patrick get stranded in the abyssopelagic zone (yes, I had to look that up).  The in-your-face sign and overall ride experience aligns perfectly with the theme of the episode.  Well done! * TL;DR * The mere fact that a roller coaster this intense exists inside The Mall of America is pretty remarkable. While it's shorter than I'd like (it could really use another ground-hugging heartline roll) and more toned down compared to some other Gerstlauer coasters out there - like Monster @ Adventureland in Iowa - I've still gotta give it 5*. All in all, it's a great addition to Nick Universe and the sensation of nearly touching the top of the large atrium as you come over the top is a really unique feeling.  I definitely recommend grabbing a few laps on this one.

    This ride was insane, you almost touch the glass ceiling and then massive drop!!! Not expected,…read moretried not to hold on but I had to!
