Blue Tornado (roller coaster)

Blue Tornado is an inverted roller coaster at Gardaland, Castelnuovo del Garda, outside Verona, Italy.

It is an extended standard model, with additional helix, of the Suspended Looping Coaster manufactured by Vekoma.

A model Panavia Tornado fighter jet is seen on top of the station for decorative purposes.

In August 1999, a 17-year-old boy from Treviso, Italy died of a heart attack while riding the roller coaster.

It was later proven that the boy suffered a life threatening heart disease.
