On January 31, 2023 mall officials confirmed the Mindbender was shut down for good. One of the attractions at Galaxyland Amusement Park inside the West Edmonton Mall, Mindbender was the world's tallest, longest, and fastest indoor triple-loop coaster. Designed by Anton Schwarzkopf this roller coaster features three vertical loops, steep twisting drops, and several tight helices. Besides the thrill of the three loops, the Mindbender roller coaster was well known for its intense gravitational forces.
