The Mummy coaster (Revenge of the Mummy at Universal Studios) hits a top speed of about 40–45 mph , which is roughly 64–72 km/h.

Quick Scoop: How fast is the Mummy ride?

  • Most technical sources and fan communities agree the ride sits in the 40–45 mph range.
  • In metric, that’s about 64–72 km/h.
  • It feels faster because it’s indoors, in the dark, with tight turns, launches, and special effects that amplify the sense of speed.

A useful way to picture it: it’s slower on paper than huge outdoor hypercoasters, but in the dark, with fire blasts and sudden launches, it can feel like you’re going much faster than 45 mph.

Different parks, slightly different numbers

Revenge of the Mummy exists at Universal Studios Florida, Hollywood, and Singapore , and sources often break down their stats separately.

  • Florida version:
    • Often listed with a top speed of about 45 mph (72 km/h).
  • Hollywood version:
    • Commonly cited as around 40 mph (64 km/h).
  • Singapore version:
    • Also typically referenced at up to 45 mph (72 km/h).

So when people ask “how fast is the Mummy ride,” the honest range answer is 40–45 mph , depending on which park you mean, with all versions designed for that “fast launch in the dark” feeling rather than record-breaking raw speed.

Why it feels so intense

Even if the numbers don’t sound extreme, the ride is engineered to feel wild:

  • LIM launches (linear induction motors) blast you from a standstill to around 40 mph in a few seconds, which creates a strong push in your seat.
  • Dark indoor setting removes the horizon and outside reference points, tricking your brain into feeling even more speed.
  • Sharp turns and steeply banked track (up to about 80 degrees in places) add strong lateral and gravitational forces.
  • Theming and effects – fire, mummies, sudden projections – spike your adrenaline right as the coaster hits those speed peaks.

One rider’s story might go something like: You creep through creepy sarcophagi, the curse is unleashed, then suddenly you’re launched into pitch black, thrown through turns so fast it feels like your stomach drops, and before you know it you’re laughing and a little shaky back in the station.

Is the Mummy ride considered “fast” compared to other coasters?
On pure numbers, it’s mid-range (many big outdoor coasters break 70–90 mph), but for an indoor story-driven coaster , 40–45 mph is on the high side and feels intense.

Does each version have the same speed?
Not exactly: Florida and Singapore are commonly cited at up to 45 mph , Hollywood closer to 40 mph , though all feel broadly similar.
