The drop tower contains copper conductors in the bottom 1/3 of the ride, and also magnets behind the seats where the people ride. When the drop tower is released the magnets induce current in the copper conductors which also creates a magnetic field that opposes that of the magnets behind the seats, thus slowly stopping the ride. The idea for the ride is based on the fundamentals of Lenz's Law.
