Take a ride on Intimidator 305 a Steel Sit Down Giga Roller Coaster manufactured by Intamin AG with a height of 305 FT, drop 300 FT, and speeds up to 90 MPH at Kings Dominion in Doswell, Virginia.
The first year this opened they had to reprofile the first drop as people were blacking/greying out. Even after doing this you still grey out.

3 minutes and five seconds...I see what you did there
Yeah lol
Lol
i always IMMEDIATELY regret my decision when the guy screams "start you're engines." and then i get on again lmaooo.
Keira B I feel you
Mann i understand how u feel
Lol
Anyone else notice the video is 3:05 long?
Bond, James Bond ha lol
Oh yeah!! What a coincidence!

Bryan Goosmann woah woah woah
Omg
Look, I'm an adrenaline junky who loves heights, I've done all the major rollercoasters, skycoasters, skydiving, everything you can think of and I've never had an issue with getting sick or passing out. Unfortunately this changed after riding this, the extreme G force and change in blood pressure caused me to feel very sick and I got ringing in my ears and gold spots in my vision, there are tons of reports of completely healthy people passing out on this ride so being a "wimp" has nothing to do with it. I think it has to do with your body and it being able to adjust your blood pressure quickly enough...
Just squeeze your legs and stomach for the few intense seconds. The keeps your blood from going from your brain to your feet.
see i love riding in the front of all rollercoasters but i blacked tf out like my soul left my body
I grayed out on this rollercoaster before
darlin ramirez happened to me and my brothers too
it is one of the most intense coasters on earth. Only for expert coaster enthusiasts
i sat in the middle so i did not black out
Yep, that'll happen...
Those riders sounded like they were in immense pain
They are, lol rode it today
They weren't, the only thing that hurts is if you put your arms up on the high speed turns, causes days of sore shoulders lol
Amy Rogers I rode it yesterday and my neck still hurts.
they blacked out
Elwin Bu if They blacked out you wouldn't hear them screaming
The curve was also changed to reduce excessive wear on the wheels. I rode this since opening day and the wheels were melting on this due to the extreme forces in the turn. The reprofile of the turn has helped but they have a water system than turns on to help cool them down when needed..
Good ride, but the colors of the track remind me of McDonald's too much.
Ikr
Haha your right. Never thought of that before!
XD ikr! Lol
Nit Picker what would be the best color scheme for you?
Nit Picker I think it's one of the only rides with this color scheme that pulls it off without reminding me of McDonalds. But that's just my opinion.
I rode this one over the weekend. The first time I kept my eyes closed and did a bit of screaming, but the second time I was convinced to keep my eyes open and had the pleasure of watching my friend blackout for a few seconds after the first drop. I didnt fully black out, but at one point things began to grey out...I laughed a bit and things cleared up for me. Very first time I was ever closed to blacking out in life...I really dont know how to feel about it. I will definitely ride the ride again with no hesitation. lol
i never get tired of this ride. best coaster at the whole park for me.
Dude... I've been filming coasters for years and I just have to say... your POV ride videos kick the shit out of mine. So it looks like you film each coaster with a handheld camera and a GoPro strapped to your body? Dude, your videos just turn out beautiful! I would almost like to just see your handheld camera footage just from a fellow roller coaster filming nerd just to see how straight you managed to hold it on a ride like that! Lmfao the Intimidator was almost as hard to hold onto your handheld camera as Kinda Ka and Top Thrill Dragster! But honestly, I tried filming the Intimadator 305 with a head strap mount for my GoPro and everything but it still isn't as good as your footage. Seriously mad respect to you man for managing to take way better video that I can manage with 15+ years of experience. I would love to buy you a beer or dinner sometime! Have a great night man!
checkout my indiana Jones coaster video and my other coaster videos from Disneyland. they are used just straight from the handheld. I did however film some with my gopro mounted on the coasters at Disneyland and DCA but those are separate videos. Some of my older videos like look at Lagoon or SFMM I have some that are strictly handheld.
I actually rode this four times (the first time was literally my first time) yesterday and this hands down was the best coaster I have and will ever rode.
I love this ride so much! First rollercoaster I've ever blacked out on too, that first turn is crucial.
That was so fun to go on don't be scared the feeling on the drop is great
Deathbyillusion you know what else is funny, the ride is called thd intimidator 305, the drop is 305 ft tall, and your video of the ride is 3:05 XD
+Adam Mitchell no its 3:04 but close
+Cubix Rube it actually is 3:05
+Twilight Sparkle The drop is actually 299 ft. Look it up.
+xKukoo yes but the max height of the car is 305
TØP Addict it really is 305 feet look it up
This ride makes a kid from my youth group black out every time he rides it, yet he rides it non-stop. Go big or go home I guess!
This ride makes a lot of people black out. The forces in the turn are to high to sustain for as long as it does.
Blacking out isn't that bad. It's pretty much just going to sleep for a second. No pain involved.
If you guys notice at 1:06, you can see that Kings Dominion widened the radius of the first curve up to the 150 ft hill. This is to reduce the amount of G-force on riders' bodies during ride time; therefore, it makes it more comfortable to ride. However, this really does make you black out for a second or two. 90 mph down that first drop, that is going to be very intense.
Tony Kim The curve was also changed to reduce excessive wear on the wheels. I rode this since opening day and the wheels were melting on this due to the extreme forces in the turn. The reprofile of the turn has helped but they have a water system than turns on to help cool them down when needed..
Tony Kim I almost blacked out, like I lost my vision on the sides, I could still see and I was conscious but I almost blacked out!
I'm glad I live close to KD. Going there tomorrow with my bff. We tried to ride this ride last year but after going on the drop tower we knew we weren't ready. But tomorrow our goal is too finally go on the intimidator!
Rose this for the first time today. I was amazed at how intense it was and also how short the line was compared to other rides. No complaints though. I can definitely understand why people grey out on this now haha. 5 stars!!
this is the best ride ever
Looks like I305's grown some grass.
Intimidator 305 is 305ft. tall, and the vid is 3:05 o_O
OMG I can't believe you caught that! The even scarier part is I didnt say im going to make this video 3:05 to go with the name of the coaster. That just happened to work out but even more I didnt even notice that until you said something! Its like were in the Twilight Zone or something. Wow great find! That worked out good!
The super tight turns and transitions on this ride makes it in-freakin-credible!! The first drop is amazingggg, and that ejector airtime on the second hill is out of this world. Nothing can compare. Also, i305 knows how to maintain it's speed for sure. Absolute 10/10. I do love airtime, especially on b&m, but rides that were made for speed makes everything much more intense!
It seems so weird to be experiencing the POV without the picture going black on the first hill after the turnaround.
Do you get nauseous or sick from the blackout?
@@adrenaline_thrillz7175 It depends on your body's constitution. Make sure to eat healthy that day, avoid alcohol, and stay hydrated if that's a concern for you.
Also take breaks between laps.
On the other hand, I always marathon the coasters when I can.
That grass is nice. The ride looks so much prettier now.
Sounds like torture in the background! :/
YES MY FAVORITE ROLLER COASTER GUY DID MY FAVORITE ROLLER COASTER!! AWESOME!!
Well im glad I could upload your favorite roller coaster!
Thankyou deathbyillusion i wish i can subscribe to you again!
Donovan Mullen you can
ColeCraft nevermind i didnt read carefully
Was in the front of Intimidator the other day, lost my phone about. 1:02
Why the hell would you have your phone in your pocket in the first place.
DetroOps I almost lost my phone too. That's how they get rich, by lost phones
Funny Moments and Videos it was my first time ever riding that roller coaster I didn't know it was that fast
My parents told me there going to take me to this theme park some day !!! Iam so excited !!!!
We were there last Saturday. Not busy at all rode it 6 times...great ride. Best ride in the park,2nd best wold have to be Volcano but the wait is a killer on that one.
I’m an avid roller coaster rider.... I’ve never passed out or came close to.. until this ride.. i road it 4 times and grayed out on every ride
Hope those new vids are coming soon! They help to make the stress from school work go away
I went on all rides in kings dominion it is the best
I went to Kings Dominion Monday and rode this ride with my brother and his girlfriend and my nephew. This was the most intense roller coaster at the park. I was scared to death, but it was fun at the same time. It jerked me around a little bit though, which hurt. I didn't black out on the ride, but my brother did. He got on it a second time while I rode a different coaster. I will definitely have to ride this again the next time I go there.
“Giga Coaster 1 looks too intense for me.”
Howling Burd19 lmaoo
I love when you ride a roller coaster that's so fast and exerts so many positive g's that they have to spray the wheels with water when it gets back to the station!
Yes lol you still grey out even after the reprofiling. I guess before more people were blacking out.
deathbyillusion I have ridden Goliath at SFMM several times, and never once, greyed or blacked out, even though my friends and family do. Does the 5 mph difference make it that more extreme?
this video is 3:05 long at the intimidator 305
That guy in the background, just ABSOLUTELY losing his mind! 🤣🤘
Great POV man. This ride is such an animal! I absolutely love riding it everytime I go to KD :)
I rode that twice. It was so fun, and hilarious to watch my bother, who is older than me, scream bloody murder and curse while I scream of joy. I LOVED it. I first went on it when I was 11, I think. Then again last year, and I'm totally going on it this year. Riding the Intimidator is going to be my tradition now.
What did the drop feel like
@@1Zymir Well. Imagine falling but you're strapped to a weight and also you have a weight on your head. I may have had the time of my life but I couldn't even keep my head up on the drop. It's basically a straight down fall. I really recommend going on it.
great coaster 10/10 would ride 6 times in a row again
I'm so excited to be going there this Saturday!
Ive went on this ride and its super fun because of the way you plunge because if feels like the coaster will fall off cause of how steep it is the track is
I rode this years ago and blacked out during the turns, great roller coaster
I was down there a month and a half ago. I hadn't ridden a coaster in almost 20 yrs. My friends got me on almost all of the coasters. Then they asked me if I'd get on this and a looked at them like there nuts
that ride was awesome I went to Kings Dominion today first time
Your up and over the drop before you can even think about what you signed up for, the cable lift doesn’t mess around!
Best time to ride this is at night, front seat.
yeah cause they have no lights in the track area and it's so dark.
The history of "dialing in" the Intimidator 305 is interesting, though it's not discussed in this video. Folks who've ridden this coaster are likely familiar with the experience of "grey-out" or "stars" at the first air-time hump, just after the initial drop. However, this coaster's first season riders endured blackout-inducing forces after the drop AND grey-out for the remainder of the ride.
The Intimidator 305 was just too fast! Crazy fast! Rider complaints of unpleasant sensations due to the high momentum over the course of the track raised concern about ride safety. It took ride engineers several attempts (colloquially called "revisions") to tweak the coaster's speed at critical points in the ride. Engineers added trim brakes, along with a subtle change to track at the first bank turn, to lower the speed and lessen the cause of blackouts this point in the ride. Additional trim brakes were added to lessen the cause of shoulder/neck injury and potential grey-outs further along the track.
Despite the changes during Intimidator 305's first season, the train still runs plenty fast today--sometimes too fast for the algorithm of the ride computer: the trim brakes can be felt on occasion! Riders still remark about experiencing "grey-out" or "stars" after recovering from that 305 foot drop. While the current ride experience is intentionally less rigorous than its original incarnation, the Intimidator 305 is no less thrilling! It is a very well-designed roller coaster and worth a visit to Kings Dominion to experience it.
the second drop is more intense than the first one tbh
Went to kings dominion, looked at the ride, shit myself, then left.
I love this coaster! Wanna ride it for sure.
This thing was so fun and the challenge is to not blackout and I was barely able to not blackout haha, excellent ride though
After the modifications this ride still produces black/grey outs on the first turn right?
Yes, for me it did and Coaster Studios.
Yes it makes my Grey out.
My 8 year old Daughter rides this ride no problem...man up people ! ;)
I rode it once and blacked out! I love roller coasters, but never again will I ride the intimidator 360.
1:00 lmao listen how the guy screams and in the drop it slowly fades out like he blacked out or something
I remember when I went it was fun im also going on it today on a field trip!!
Look at the time of this video LOL
what's even more crazy is I didn't do that intentionally and only noticed after it was uploaded and a person commented about that.
How wonderful video! Great!
Thank you!
Intamin AG Builds some of the best coasters in the world, I thought the skyrush was a big drop, this one is insane.
they build some awesome coasters but they do have the issue with breaking down a lot or malfunctioning haha.
+Deathbyillusion most likely if it's mechanical is will breakdown eventually
My dream coaster, 2020 maybe.
i like the roller costers that you go on
My whole choir is going to kings dominion next year and I'm so pumped! I get to ride a whole bunch of rollercoasters with my friends! I don't want to look like a wimp so I HAVE to go on this. I don't want to be left behind. I will try it :) seems scary, but something tells me to get on it haha!
Great choice.
What school did you go to? Because I went with my school choir in 2013.
Lucky going to kd with school. I live closer to kd but we are taking a feild trip to bush gardens when kd is better. My class was mad
+Jack Paul you got griffon at bg though
When i went on this i went back on it literally 15 more times because the line was actually short. I went in the front, the middle, and the back multiple times. It was fun
Oh and I didn't black out. I almost did though. A lot of people were passing out and at the end had no idea what happened haha
It's not Millenium Force but it's good. although the 200 foot version skyrush that's a similar setup with one big cable lift hill to pickup big speed and the rest of the ride being close to the ground at Hershey park is definitely more wilder. This one is faster and less active.
Lmfao! Sounds like your train was full of Germans freaking out! Sounds like a good day if you ask me
How it feels to chew 5 gum
*shows intense overbank*
New 5 gum. Stimulate your senses.
Rode this 10 times and blacked out 3 times.
But we all know....... ITS TIME TO GET TWISTED!
Didn't know McDonald's build their own coaster lol. The speed of the ride should be faster than this. I like how the Intimidator 305 has that race car sound effect at beginning of the ride. They should build another layer of track with another train and have them race against each other. No more waiting in 2 hour lines!
I could feel my spin and neck bones shift. Lol
I closed my eyes the whole time
@shadowflame it is a smooth ride at Carowinds in between North and South Carolina.
They have 6 or seven coasters liker this at cedar point. This is the only big fast steel coaster at kings dominion. Cedar point and kings dominion are owned by the same company so why is cedar point so much bigger better and have way more roller coasters? cedar point has 16 roller coasters and counting!!!!
what up my neighbor! No the fuck they don't you fanboy
They now have 17, and Cedar Point was the original Cedar Fair park.
Dude I was going to Williamsburg and I could see I305
Looked like a fun ride, but I wonder how tall that rollercoaster is. Watching these kind of videos is cool but really makes me miss my theme park experiences. I wish I lived close to a theme park. I'd never be bored in the summer.
305 feet, hence the name lol. It's fun though.
Megan Dailey Oh wow I should've known, thanks for tellin me. It does look kind of scary, but I believe it's a fun ride. How often do you get to go to Kings Dominion?
+Brace Brooks I've only been maybe three or four times, and all but my last time were before this ride was built. But last time I went I got on twice because it was so awesome lol. But typically I get to go to one park per summer, usually Hershey or KD. But I got to go to both Kings Dominion and Hershey this year, within the same weekend because I went to KD with my boyfriend, sister and brother in law, and to Hershey for my job's annual park trip.
Megan Dailey Wow good for you. You're really blessed and priviledged. Altho I have the $ to go to theme parks I often don't have a way there. I have no car, and the closest theme park to me is 6 flags Great America near Chicago, IL. Even if I had a car, I'd get lost trying to go there (unless I had a gps) It's a little over 1 hour from where I live (Chicago's south suburbs) And I've been 2 it in 2000 when I was 11, and in 2012 when I was a 23 with 2 new female friends. I've went to Mall of America's theme park Nickolodean Universe the last 2 years, but it sucked not havin friends with me there. Hope I didn't annoy you with all those words, but I hope you and I both get to experience theme park outings more often, I would help finance you to if I were rich enough. Thanks for takin time out to share that with me tho.
It was the first times I ever rode roller coasters, this was the 3rd one I rode, it was fucking insane!
I FUCKING LOVE THIS RIDE! It's sooooo much fun!
Why don’t they paint the supports black. The yellow supports just gives me an eye sore
Those screams!! Priceless!! Haha!
awesome views of... trees.
I’ve gone on it the 2 drop makes me blackout more than the first
You ain't lying the first drop wasn't bad it was the two for me the up and down motion that got me.
haha germans were on this ride :D
Sad to think. I was sick and miserable the day I went to the park, this ride really upset my stomach so all I was thinking about was that :( and now I don't remember my experience at all. :'(
OH HELL NAWWW!!!
Sofia Farah OH HELL YEAHH!!!
its honestly not that bad , i was so hesitant too ride it , then i rode it , blacked out , & then rode it again 🤣. tbh i love love loveee this ride , but dominotor will forever be my fav .
Hell Yeah!
Get on it you baby it’s fun
Oh Dale yeah!
I remember seeing a Orient Express (Worlds of Fun) video shot on a tape based camcorder. It was too intense for the camera. Now we have GoPros with flash memory, Intimidator 305 is so forceless to those GoPros I just have to LOL at the evolution of camcorder technology.
I wish Intamin would make the first turn wider to combat the blackouts...
But who doesn't like 5G's?
It actually was made wider, partly because of the forces put onto the riders, but also the strain put on the wheels through that first turn.
I went and I loved it... I grey out in the 1st but the 2nd and 3rd time I went was normal lml I advise everyone to ride it!!!!!!
I am terrified of this
Went on this ride recently, blacked out on that first turn. (Not to be confused with G-LOC)
Woaw woaw woaw wait that thing goes up steep
Project 305
Dale yeah!
Bro I remember getting on this ride for the first time, and I was already regretting it by the time I put my seatbelt on. When we went down, my heart popped outta my mouth and its like i swallowed it again. Then we got on a second time, and I was like: piece a cake. It's funny cuz for the first time, In the pictures I looked contorted, and the guy behind me looked like was possessed for real! Hahhhahhahahahahahaahahhaahhaahhaahahahahhahahahahaa. But overall, I loved this ride. Will never forget it.
Hey Deathbyillusion, you think you'll ever do a Fury 325 POV??? I'd sure like to see that.
This is the only ride that ever made me black out lol
I love rollercoasters but that looks like too much for me...lol
+imma1star It's Over Fast And Once You Get Past The Drop You Like HECK YEAH! I Strongly Suggest You Give It A Try.
+GhostIsMyClient InsidiousJr Geometry Dash yes there is a very good chance. I greyed out and that was after they reprifiled the drop. Before I for ad it everyone was like it sycks now they reprofiled the drop and isn't good now. So when I road it my expectations would that high and then when I road it it was way better then I though and I don't know why people say it sucks now cause the g's are still very strong.
i went on it it is fun I went to kings dominion I and I went on every roller coaster
I lost vision at the very bottom. Super weird experience. I was fully conscious for the drop, then blackness. This blip was really short though.
That made me go on the ride it was fun
That's their diamond back
mikayla owens And it's 10x better.
