Helmer van den Hoorn researched rollercoasters
‘A few Gs are fun, but too many can be dangerous’
Who hasn’t spent part of their childhood building rollercoasters in RollerCoaster Tycoon? For master’s student of Mechanical Engineering Helmer van den Hoorn, it did not end there. He did his final thesis project at Intamin Holland in Apeldoorn, a company that specialises in calculating rollercoasters and other theme park rides.
