The model of the ride, a Space Diver coaster, was intended to be mass-produced, however, Flashback was the only installation.

[4] The site was later used for a Bolliger & Mabillard stand-up roller coaster named Iron Wolf.

Park staff performed CPR, but the victim was pronounced dead after being taken to HCA Parkway Medical Center.

In June 1995, Six Flags Magic Mountain opened a water park named Hurricane Harbor right next to the ride.

[8] Flashback was the world's only hairpin-drop roller coaster, with 6 head-over-heels dives and a 540-degree upward spiral.

The drops were severe, producing a free-fall experience on the plunges; fast steel switchbacks connected the turns just before trains flew into the gravity-defying upward spiral.

Trains reached a max of 35 miles per hour (56 km/h), with a 3-g force on the one and a half minute ride.
