I’ve operated on FoF. Not necessarily pushing buttons like on driver, dual, or unload, but still checking restraints and the such. It’s fun but I’d call it quirky compared to normal coasters.
Fantastic coaster. I really loved that when the train shoots off down the dark tunnel, the next train comes around the bend and into the station EMPTY! haha it was a great touch.
I used to be really scared of roller coasters, but my parents forced me to ride flight of fear. Somehow, luck was on my side and we ended up finding out how long the queue line was. Watching this video has made me realize how petrified i would be if the queue was not that long.
I’ll never forget my first time riding this coaster. My ex girlfriend is in a wheelchair and wanted to ride the rollercoaster. At the time it was new and I wasn’t up for doing loops or corkscrews yet. We got up to the ride and I flat out refused to go on the ride, and she called me a coward. When a woman in a wheelchair is braver than you as a teenage man, you gotta do it, no matter what. So I boarded the coaster and I looked like I was facing a firing squad. The coaster shot us in and I absolutely loved it. The best part was that as the corkscrew concluded the ride, in the dark room you sit in after the final break run, somebody a few seats back screams out, “Oh My God, I peed my pants!” And everybody died laughing. From that day forward, I never felt afraid of most coasters ever again. Flight of Fear is probably my favorite coaster.
Back in October, we went to King's Island for the first time. I searched up videos on this, but they didn't do it justice. I didn't know what I was in for, but I feel like something broke in me. (in a good way) This is also one of my favorite coasters, and I'm so glad I got to experience this.
This is such an underrated coaster! It's still one of my favorites....during its opening summer I stood in line for almost 5 hours to ride it. The friend I went with was very sadly murdered by her soon to be ex-husband about 10 years ago....so it's an especially cherished memory and I always ride it when I visit King's Island in her honor.
@@AltontowersthorpeparkItd be more rude to inconvenience everyone else over one crybaby. I dont care if its a kid. I have been crazy about coasters since I was 8. If hes not ready to ride a big boy ride then head over to peanut land.
I ABSOLUTELY LOVED THIS RIDE! although it did break down before we got on it :P but everyone left and came back but we stayed so we got on early Before we took off, the guy said "we'll see you where your pizza rolls are done"
Definitely a favorite. The induction launch is SUPERB. The track is literally knotted up inside the building. I remember it being much faster than this however!
My very first time riding this, I was a nervous wreck. The operator launched the coaster, beforehand, to show us how fast it was. It was at this moment, my heart went in my stomach. Another employee said that he would help me, and then they launched the coaster. Although, I was scared at first. This was probably one of the coolest coasters I've ever gotten to ride.
I went on that ride a few hours ago, me and my mom were waiting in line (Wasn't even sure what the line was even for at first), and we got there and the ride was so fast and the lights were all off, this was the 2nd roller coaster I've been on in my life and it went upside down and I never even knew it.
I swore never to ride an upside down coaster, they freaked me out. Rode this ALL the time. Didn’t even realize it went upside down till I saw this video. I now will ride anything 😂 banshee is my favorite.
Omg I was so scared to ride this because when I found out it went upside down I almost chickened out cuz I’m always nervous to ride a looping coaster for the first time. Well when I saw that it was a launch coaster I got EVEN MORE nervous and my dad was just laughing at me lol. But once it actually launched MAN that was amazing! Now that I saw it with the lights on now I know why I loved it do much! (Btw I think Flight of Fear is a mix of Space Mountain and Rock ‘n Rollercoaster at Disney World. Just me ok)
I seriously think the creators of this devilish coaster crumpled a long piece of track into a ball, left two ends out for the start and finish and said "Yeah, that looks good to me!"
I did, but it was so hard to keep them up, plus when I rode it, I vaguely remember having a different restraint that went over my shoulders, but apparently they just have a lap bar, now... which makes no sense because of all of the inversions, but its whatever. I agree. Don't throw your arms up.
@@42terrabites When it first opened it had the over the shoulder ones, but a few years after they changed it to lab bars cause people complained about hitting their heads on the restraint. Lap bars are equally as safe, and a lot of other inverting rides also have lap bars
The first time i rode this, the line was 2 hours long, and i chugged a drink right before i got in line, so i held it that whole time. But when we got in the station, i had been holding it in for so long at that point, we were next in line when i could hold it no longer hold it, and pissed myself right there in the station. Luckily it was to dark for anyone to notice. ☠️💀☠️💀☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️💀💀💀
Is the banshee okay for people who hate the feeling of drops? I don't ride many coasters because my stomach can't handle it. Not that I get sick but the feeling is weird 🤢
I wonder what awesomeness RMC could do with a raptor track for an indoor ride like this... Just imagine snapping around tight turns in the dark on a raptor.
Before hitting the unloading station, a small alien figure can be seen sitting to the right of the cars near a control panel, but it is not made clear if this is the same alien who has been making announcements in the loading station. Another alien can be spotted near the end of the ride. Right before the cars approach the unloading station, the figure can be seen to the right, which is also the same side the riders exit at the unloading station. The area is dark, like most of the ride, but the figure is noticeable due to green lights that are nearby. The figure's presence is most likely to imply that this alien was controlling the ride cars. Can anyone find photos online of these aliens?
We waited I believe two hrs in line at Kings Dominion to ride this ride. It was well worth it though and i highly recommend it. That is to people without heart problems . I have hypertension which I High BP and i could definitely tell it was affected 🤷
They need bigger seats for this ride, my buddy had to do the walk of shame cause he couldn’t fit, but this is the only coaster he couldn’t fit on at ki n cp he fit on all of them! We even rode the Woodstock express at ki and fit lol
Nicky D why not b&m is expensive, it would be easier if kings island got a itamin giga coaster, because it's better and cheaper than b&m kings island needs a itamin giga coaster,let itamin get a chance
I remember when i rode this with my friends, the operator said Operator: do you guys wanna go forewords of backwards? Everyone: Uhhhh.. Operator: just kidding! * *launch* *
The operator whenever I rode would say after they checked us and said clear would say “wait what’s this button do” or say “wanna hear a joke” everyone would say “yea” and he’d say “I’ll tell you when your back” but would laugh us mid sentence
Did the same thing a year ago but after a year of being terrified to go anywhere near it I finally got back in and got on it this time, it was great, the launch is easy because by the time you realize what's going on your already up to speed having a good time. I'd recommend and up until last year I wouldn't even ride the racer so I'm not exactly a thrill seeker haha!
Everything feels faster in the dark! It's a lot safer that way too, if it were a fast ride it would probably be really uncomfortable because you can't see the turns in the dark and brace for them.
A classmate crapped his pants on this ride on a school field trip and the bus driver had to go to the local walmart and buy him new undies and shorts hahahaha
Went of FOF years back, the operator tossed a screw/bolt/whatever and said "oops" before launch. I work as a ride op now for cedar point and MAN I wanted to make witty comments like this so badly but were not allowed to due to safety concerns and delays in operation.
when me and my family went to ride it the ride broke down before we could get on so we waited 30 minutes in the line before leaving and going on the Orion
When I went on there the ride operator said Operator: Finish the lyrics Operator: My money don’t jiggle jiggle Everyone: It fol- Then the ride went. Lmao
Kings dominion at Kings Dominion in Virginia flight operators for flight of fear were always the best one of them had explained a small part of selling lore behind the roller coaster, and me, and my friend got on for when he was about to explain party, but he just said once upon a time there was an alien and then just launched us off and another time the person to fix a countdown
This ride was so fun omg I’ve never really rode roller coasters and stuck with kid rides until my friends made me get on and I actually enjoyed it, when I got to flight of fear I was like oh okay because it was indoors so I thought it was gonna be like not that bad, and woah it rlly wasn’t it was super fast and fun you don’t even feel the loops it just feels like ur going straight up super fast, TIP, do not put ur head down like to the person next to you on the launch off cus you will hurt urself, I hit my lip against the thing they lock you in, and it was bleeding but I still enjoyed it so much, my lip just felt numb so I didn’t care and just had fun, it is so fun omg I was ready for denominator after this ride cus then u get to know it’s not that bad
It was so funny when I rode this and my friend Abby was sitting next to me in the loading room there are these tubs with fake frozen bodies In them and she turned to me and said “I bet Walt Disney is in one of those”
Its really fun! I am not really big on scary coasters and nearly chickened out on this but said SCREW it and road it and now its my top favorite coaster. The lights are normally off so you dont see a DAMN THING 😂 that actually helped me cause im also not big on loops either.
Samantha Marcum cool to know it’s like I really enjoyed space mountain it’s basically a regular roller coaster with I believe with two lift hills and is also in the dark. So next time I go to kings island I might get on it. It’s like I’ve rode mystic timbers, backlot stunt coaster , the formerly fairly odd coaster. Sorry I can’t remember the name of it. And flying ace airial chase.
Depends. This is way scarier than space mountain! It has loops, space mountain doesnt. You should be able to handle it though, the fact that it’s dark means it’s not as bad.
Bob, your videos are my favorite ones to watch of the like-minded videographers. Did you know it's the same model as Poltergeist at Fiesta Texas? Also, how did you get the lights on the footage? Very nice!
Thank you, Keith! I wasn't aware of this ride being the same as Poltergeist, but I know that there were others in other parks. The lights-on tour was part of Kings Island's Coasterstock event, which includes several behind-the-scenes tours.
One time I rode this and my mom had her (mostly empty) drink cup on the floor during the ride, turns out it wasn't as empty as she thought and she didn't even notice until we were walking out that her jeans were covered in pop lol
To people who have rode this before, Are the drops like other roller coaster drops, or are they not as scary? I rode a roller coaster with an 85 foot drop and it hurt and I about cried so I wanted to know if this is that traumatic lol. Thanks
@@ellxelxell maybe the big drop was just a bad experience because I rode the racers and the bat and they had good drops so I think it’s just the difference in the restraints. I’ll ride fof next time probably.
@@helix9049 yeah, I can barely remember it but the drop couldn't have been bigger than the adventure express drop which was still a pretty small ish drop
It also scared me and my sister to death with the first shoot off, and my sister has rode some big coasters, very fun to ride bit almost made me sick with the corkscrews
@@ellxelxell yeah I rode hagrids magical motorbike adventure in universal studios Orlando and the backlot stunt coaster which both go pretty fast and have launches so I’m good with those

When I was on flight of fear
Operator: "Knock Knock"
Everyone: 'Who's there?"
Operator: "Not you!"
Then he launched us off.
Triangle Da Noob ok that’s pretty hilarious
@@quentk8886 if i was a ride operator i would be funny
That’s the best launch I have heard from flight of fear I feel like the operator’s for the ride have so much fun launching everyone
that’s amazing haha
i would be like well we broke down the send it
Operating a launch coaster has to be one of the funnest positions in the field.
Yeah
e causey *launch coaster* not flat ride
I’ve operated on FoF. Not necessarily pushing buttons like on driver, dual, or unload, but still checking restraints and the such. It’s fun but I’d call it quirky compared to normal coasters.
especially this one
Fantastic coaster. I really loved that when the train shoots off down the dark tunnel, the next train comes around the bend and into the station EMPTY! haha it was a great touch.
Yeah that's cool.
EVERYONE HAS BEEN ABDUCTED BY ALIENS!!
I didn’t even realize it went upside down bc it was so dark 😂 all I thought it did was the twists 😂
I have a pretty bad fear of roller coaster but because of the dark aspect it actually really helps.
@@GangstaNut9 don’t have any fear. These coasters get thousands of riders a day with no problems
i new there was one but u can’t tell if i’m up side down or not

man you got some low expectations
@@FrappeInsiderfr dating someone in a wheel chair is wild 💀
@@youraveragetanker1745 that's not what my comment was about. why does that even matter
The ride operators usually shout “YEET” whenever I ride this.
For me they say "I BLESS THE RAINS DOWN IN AFRICA"
Might have been my daughter... She just started working this ride 😂😂
You have a good daughter then
ZachAttack Roblox thanks, I like to think so 😊
When I ride it the just say something like and I quote, "Alright on the count of three 1 2" then they launch you on 2
rode this for the first time last week. Keep your head back on launch or it'll bite you
This is such an underrated coaster! It's still one of my favorites....during its opening summer I stood in line for almost 5 hours to ride it.

rode it it was so funny they counted down 10 9 8 and just went everybody not expecting that
Yeah they did it with me except they went from 5 to 4 and as soon as they said 4 they launched 😂😂
For me they said “Want me to do a countdown?” Everybody screams. “Louder!” He launches and they all scream really loud, including me.
One time a kid in this ride seemed upset and was crying. The operator said “Hey buddy, it’s okay, don’t cry…. Cry now!” right before the launch.
The disrespect 😂
Lol
That’s quite rude of the operator…
OMG!!! People need a sense of humor! That is great! Give the kid a raise! 😂

hahahahaha
I rode this lights-on once. It was called Poltergeist at Fiesta Texas. Lol
yessss I love that ride sm
Definitely a favorite. The induction launch is SUPERB. The track is literally knotted up inside the building. I remember it being much faster than this however!
It's still super fast, the videos just don't do it justice.
It used to be faster. It’s speed has been reduced over the years and the restraints have been changed.
one of the most fun rides at kings island
Its my third favorite ride there
It’s sooooo underrated
Dang this thing goes upside down a lot more then I thought it did
My very first time riding this, I was a nervous wreck. The operator launched the coaster, beforehand, to show us how fast it was. It was at this moment, my heart went in my stomach. Another employee said that he would help me, and then they launched the coaster. Although, I was scared at first. This was probably one of the coolest coasters I've ever gotten to ride.
My brother made me go on that when I was like 11. He said it didnt go upside down and that it wasnt bad. I am still mad about it lmao
Dallas Lidwell Same with my brother, he told me it was fast but just a straight shot and I’m still mad at him about that lmao
When I went my bf at the time told me it didn't go upside down I didn't realize I did so many times but I am still mad lol
Heather Fegal lmfao that’s great 😂😂
My daughter is working this ride this Summer! 😊😊
She still work there?
I’ve been on the Kings Dominion one I absolutely love it my 24th favorite coaster of all time
I rode this. I am proud to go through this kind of excitement in my life. I'm never riding it again tho.
This ride should be everyone's first roller coaster with an inversion.
I went on that ride a few hours ago, me and my mom were waiting in line (Wasn't even sure what the line was even for at first), and we got there and the ride was so fast and the lights were all off, this was the 2nd roller coaster I've been on in my life and it went upside down and I never even knew it.
I love this ride so much! I got to ride break-in mode and that was the most intense thing I've ever experienced!
Oh god an Intamin fanboy
Barc yep kings island needs a itamin giga coaster not b&m ,b&m has too many rattles,
Barc I don't like flight of fear it needs to be removed it's rough , keep vortex, and replace flight of fear, with something like kingda ka but smooth
Why are you telling me this
Barc just cause I just hope they demolish and scraped flight of fear
I swore never to ride an upside down coaster, they freaked me out. Rode this ALL the time. Didn’t even realize it went upside down till I saw this video. I now will ride anything 😂 banshee is my favorite.
Rode this first time yesterday. Hour and a half wait, killer headache afterwards.....totally worth it!
The ride operator: do you guys want a countdown?
Everyone: YES!
Operator: 10, 9, 8, 7, 6
Launches

2 quotes on Flight of Fear:

**launches**
Operator: Y'know, you guys look kinda scared...
Goodbye.
This isn't neccessarily the "best" ride at Kings Island but it's easily the most fun
I seriously think the creators of this devilish coaster crumpled a long piece of track into a ball, left two ends out for the start and finish and said "Yeah, that looks good to me!"
DONT PUT YOUR HANDS UP ON THIS I nearly broke my back😭
I did, but it was so hard to keep them up, plus when I rode it, I vaguely remember having a different restraint that went over my shoulders, but apparently they just have a lap bar, now... which makes no sense because of all of the inversions, but its whatever. I agree. Don't throw your arms up.

Why?
@@noahsmith951 prolly because front seat is the least or maybe they wanted to be in front idk lol
Hi there! Would you mind if I used this footage in an upcoming video about Flight of Fear? I'll provide credit to your channel of course!
Go for it - thanks for asking!
i just rode this today at Kings dominion for the first time and i loved it ...
Before we launched the ride operator said sksksks and I and on oop we went😂😂
It feels 20 times faster in the dark
What’s the funniest thing you heard when you were about to launch from the operator
Why are they stopping it on the MCBR again? They werent doing that last year and it was great!
Calakapepe
They did it last year when I rode it
They are probably running more trains I’d guess
Damn I miss that ride it’s been like 7 years 😂
The operators clearly have fun launching people on this ride. When I went this year, my operator launched us saying "Mr. Stark, I don't feel so good".
How I Operate FOF:
Ready........All Clear........YOUR SOULS ARE MINE!
It’s so crazy with lights on!!
One of my favorites. I miss the outer limits theming.
The first time i rode this, the line was 2 hours long, and i chugged a drink right before i got in line, so i held it that whole time.
But when we got in the station, i had been holding it in for so long at that point, we were next in line when i could hold it no longer hold it, and pissed myself right there in the station.

Is the banshee okay for people who hate the feeling of drops? I don't ride many coasters because my stomach can't handle it. Not that I get sick but the feeling is weird 🤢
@@GalaxyHD... Same here , the biggest one I ever rode is the Beast
When I was there my ride op was like
“Can I get an oh yeah”
“OH YEAH”
“Can I get an Ahhhhhh”
“aaaAAAAAAAHHHHH”
when we said aaahhh he launched us
I rode this a couple times.Its an O.K.Ride but I always get these rub burn marks on my neck from the safety restraints.
Unless you rode this when it first opened, you wouldn’t get a neck burn now as it uses a lap bar.
I wonder what awesomeness RMC could do with a raptor track for an indoor ride like this... Just imagine snapping around tight turns in the dark on a raptor.
This ride banged me up and made me feel like I had a concussion
Before hitting the unloading station, a small alien figure can be seen sitting to the right of the cars near a control panel, but it is not made clear if this is the same alien who has been making announcements in the loading station. Another alien can be spotted near the end of the ride. Right before the cars approach the unloading station, the figure can be seen to the right, which is also the same side the riders exit at the unloading station. The area is dark, like most of the ride, but the figure is noticeable due to green lights that are nearby. The figure's presence is most likely to imply that this alien was controlling the ride cars.
Can anyone find photos online of these aliens?
When I rode this, the man said a simple word.
“Scream”
Nah what got me was the cork screw at the end I was not expecting it
Yeah I thought it just launched as you and then turn back around and then take you back into the station
We waited I believe two hrs in line at Kings Dominion to ride this ride.
It was well worth it though and i highly recommend it.
That is to people without heart problems .
I have hypertension which I High BP and i could definitely tell it was affected 🤷
Once you get on it a few times it doesn’t seem that fast anymore
After riding dragster this ride doesn’t seem as fast, however it is still a great ride
This is my best ride ever
This looks insane considering it is indoors.
This was my first upside down roller coaster, in the middle of the ride is screamed did we just go upside down too my mom
They need bigger seats for this ride, my buddy had to do the walk of shame cause he couldn’t fit, but this is the only coaster he couldn’t fit on at ki n cp he fit on all of them! We even rode the Woodstock express at ki and fit lol
ride isnt made for bigger trains wont happen use the test seat before getting line and would avoid doing the walk of shame
Nicky D we didn’t see a test seat for fof as I recall! Of course we didn’t think much of it cause every other coaster was a go lol
Flight of fear sucks I hope they rename it, and replace it with a coaster like kingda ka but smooth itamin launch coaster
never gonna happen cedar fair doesnt work with intmain anymore
Nicky D why not b&m is expensive, it would be easier if kings island got a itamin giga coaster, because it's better and cheaper than b&m kings island needs a itamin giga coaster,let itamin get a chance
Coasterbob62, so is it true that King Cobra parts and trains are in the flight is fear? Were you able to see them?
It's possible, but I wasn't paying as much attention to the stuff on the floor in there. Probably should have. I'll post more video of the tour later.
The trains were in there up until 2010. Not sure what happened to them after that
David Hoplight I believe they were sent to King's dominion for shockwave maintenance im not sure tho.
That’s Awsome how did they manage to do this with the lights on
That last inversion feels so unexpected in the moment it happens
I remember when i rode this with my friends, the operator said
Operator: do you guys wanna go forewords of backwards?
Everyone: Uhhhh..
Operator: just kidding!
* *launch* *
The operator whenever I rode would say after they checked us and said clear would say “wait what’s this button do” or say “wanna hear a joke” everyone would say “yea” and he’d say “I’ll tell you when your back” but would laugh us mid sentence
me: okay maybe I can try flight of fear again, maybe i won’t be as scared this time
me: *watches launch*
me: nevermind
sincerely tree what I did
Did the same thing a year ago but after a year of being terrified to go anywhere near it I finally got back in and got on it this time, it was great, the launch is easy because by the time you realize what's going on your already up to speed having a good time. I'd recommend and up until last year I wouldn't even ride the racer so I'm not exactly a thrill seeker haha!
See I went to kings island again but the problem is that the FOF line was 2hrs long so we couldn’t ride ir
This was my first roller coaster ever 💀
Wow the ride isn’t as fast as it felt
Everything feels faster in the dark! It's a lot safer that way too, if it were a fast ride it would probably be really uncomfortable because you can't see the turns in the dark and brace for them.
A classmate crapped his pants on this ride on a school field trip and the bus driver had to go to the local walmart and buy him new undies and shorts hahahaha
Best roller coaster at kings island 100% recommend
Went of FOF years back, the operator tossed a screw/bolt/whatever and said "oops" before launch. I work as a ride op now for cedar point and MAN I wanted to make witty comments like this so badly but were not allowed to due to safety concerns and delays in operation.
when me and my family went to ride it the ride broke down before we could get on so we waited 30 minutes in the line before leaving and going on the Orion
The girl today running it: "Did you guys want a countdown or anything-"
**insert the sounds of loud screaming as she shot us off mid sentence.**
Love this ride!! It'd be awesome if they put some dimly lit white LED's all over the walls to look like stars.
Joshua Eric cool idea and maybe some alien effects as your going down the drop
They did the last time I was there
When I went on there the ride operator said
Operator: Finish the lyrics
Operator: My money don’t jiggle jiggle
Everyone: It fol- Then the ride went. Lmao
I'm here right now
I swear when you ride this and at the end when it gets real close to the ground, it’s bounces off of it lol
That looks AMAZING!!
I rode this when I was young, way better than space mountain imo
Kings dominion at Kings Dominion in Virginia flight operators for flight of fear were always the best one of them had explained a small part of selling lore behind the roller coaster, and me, and my friend got on for when he was about to explain party, but he just said once upon a time there was an alien and then just launched us off and another time the person to fix a countdown

This roller coaster in the dark is terrifying
That's part of the fun.
It was so funny when I rode this and my friend Abby was sitting next to me in the loading room there are these tubs with fake frozen bodies In them and she turned to me and said “I bet Walt Disney is in one of those”
I recall one time when they asked if we wanted to build a snowman... *ride takes off* "Okay bye..."
i have not rode this yet. but i do have a question, if i can handle space mountain at wdw should i be able to handle this.
Its really fun! I am not really big on scary coasters and nearly chickened out on this but said SCREW it and road it and now its my top favorite coaster. The lights are normally off so you dont see a DAMN THING 😂 that actually helped me cause im also not big on loops either.
Samantha Marcum cool to know it’s like I really enjoyed space mountain it’s basically a regular roller coaster with I believe with two lift hills and is also in the dark. So next time I go to kings island I might get on it. It’s like I’ve rode mystic timbers, backlot stunt coaster , the formerly fairly odd coaster. Sorry I can’t remember the name of it. And flying ace airial chase.
Depends. This is way scarier than space mountain! It has loops, space mountain doesnt. You should be able to handle it though, the fact that it’s dark means it’s not as bad.
It looks freaking awesome
We need to wear the official daVideo Camera Glasses on this ride!
Would I be able to use this in a review of flight of fear that I am making? I will give full credit.
As long as you give me credit, yes. Thanks for asking!
I really want to try this coaster but the loud noises the entire way through the que give me a panic attack before I reach the front.
just like the joker jinx at six flags but outside
pixel watch jinx is a clone of it, there's also one in Japan called crazy cobra I believe .
Bob, your videos are my favorite ones to watch of the like-minded videographers. Did you know it's the same model as Poltergeist at Fiesta Texas? Also, how did you get the lights on the footage? Very nice!
Thank you, Keith! I wasn't aware of this ride being the same as Poltergeist, but I know that there were others in other parks. The lights-on tour was part of Kings Island's Coasterstock event, which includes several behind-the-scenes tours.
Awesome video bob i like the ending too that was good.
Thank you!
Was this called Outer Limits at one point?
One time I rode this and my mom had her (mostly empty) drink cup on the floor during the ride, turns out it wasn't as empty as she thought and she didn't even notice until we were walking out that her jeans were covered in pop lol
I need to try this ride
Agreed it’s the only coaster in the park that I haven’t ridden
Last time I rode this the ride operator was like did you guys want a countdown then sent us off
To people who have rode this before,
Are the drops like other roller coaster drops, or are they not as scary? I rode a roller coaster with an 85 foot drop and it hurt and I about cried so I wanted to know if this is that traumatic lol. Thanks
The ride doesn't have a big drop as much as I remember, it twists and loops a lot tho!
@@ellxelxell maybe the big drop was just a bad experience because I rode the racers and the bat and they had good drops so I think it’s just the difference in the restraints. I’ll ride fof next time probably.
@@helix9049 yeah, I can barely remember it but the drop couldn't have been bigger than the adventure express drop which was still a pretty small ish drop
It also scared me and my sister to death with the first shoot off, and my sister has rode some big coasters, very fun to ride bit almost made me sick with the corkscrews
@@ellxelxell yeah I rode hagrids magical motorbike adventure in universal studios Orlando and the backlot stunt coaster which both go pretty fast and have launches so I’m good with those
Love this coaster!!
