From memory the on ride camera is located on the helix just before the brake run. Edit: If you have a look at this video I think you can see it in the background at

or closer up just after

hey guys The camera is located on the building 0:55 in the video above ^^^ and it is before the barrel roll ( the head banging bit) useally you would see a flash!.

Actually themeparkgc is correct. It's during the helix before the brake run. if you look at this helix on google maps you'll see what looks like a white bird house just to the left.

Actually themeparkgc and cerberus584 your both incorrect the camera was relocated sometime ago. Its now were Randy said attached to the tall building (theming) that is attached to the loading and show building. its just before the barrel roll section towards the end of the ride. Reason why you can still see it on google maps is because the holding box's were the cameras used to be are still there but are empty.

Thank you klassen24 like i said if you watch the video and stop at 0:55sec you will see it!. and also i did use to work there. so i should know where everythink is. cheers.

In that video you can clearly see both sets: I was always under the impression that the cameras on the final helix were the active set, and the ones up on the crumbling building have been left to the elements, plus in that vid you can see all the equipment has had plates put over the lenses: post-88-1269953008_thumb.jpg

yes well maybe some people should get a up to date video beacuse this video was shot in 2007! alot of thing has changed since then.

You only have to ride it, or stand in the observation area, and look for the flash to know which one works - or check out the on-ride photos in the kiosk and check out the background... it is definitely the set on the facade doing the work. The helix photos always shot from below you - you ended up with a lot of feet. The facade ones get you in the middle of a turn, so the train is spread out on the side the camera is on - and gives a better shot of both riders.
