Brain Drain is a drop tower at Magic Springs Theme and Water Park in Hot Springs, Arkansas. Built by Larson International, it opened in April 2018 as the new ride for the park's 40th anniversary season.
The tower is 140 feet tall, about 13 stories. Riders are lifted slowly to the top, pause, and then fall 120 feet, reaching about 47 mph before the brakes slow them. The ride carries up to 12 people at a time, and the park requires riders to be at least 48 inches tall.
Brain Drain is listed with the park's thrill rides, alongside the X-Coaster and The Gauntlet. Neither the park nor the 2018 reports give the length of a ride cycle.
