[@futurestorm4068]

Haha, I love how you censored the guys swear word by using a screech from a Falcon. Well done.

[@AuroraStarstorm]

Deadstroke Some say Deadstroke still laughs to this day

[@danielledewitt1]

Futurestorm I love what was done there lol.

[@kamilone01]

I really enjoyed this ride, especially the time I convinced my mother to ride with me. She was swearing all the way up. When we reached the top she just went into shock and closed her eyes until we were back in the ground. She refused to speak to me for the next 5 minutes.

[@jadzia1071]

My sister and I made our mom go on it. We explained MULTIPLE times that it turns you towards the ground. After the ride she pulled our ears and said "how could you do that to me?" 😂😂

[@daneliec]

LOL 1:30 they used a falcon's screech in place of a bleep!

[@markbundles2]

Danelie Charles I wondered when someone was going to say something lol

[@victorvtr173]

Danelie Charles What happens is that as the attraction is a hawk because when they say a bad word instead of making a beep does sound a hawk

[@bushwxcker540]

+Victor Carrasco Perez What?

[@lucasstamper8150]

Funny Moments and Videos You'll never know what he meant, LOL

[@Godsmylove]

😂😂😂😂

[@ouch110]

The most intense part is the waiting at the top. It feels like forever waiting for it to drop you. SUCH an amazing rush though. I went twice in a row..on my own because my partner was too chicken!! Also, because you are facing downwards..there's no horrible stomach feeling. It's just...PLUMMET!

[@cristianplaza1466]

+ouch110 Fragrance Reviews amazing men iam gonna try it next Saturday 20 of November ,im from chile , is this park is far from the Barrymore hotel tampa riverwalk ..........

[@SignOfTheTimes008]

+ouch110 Fragrance Reviews That was the toughest part for me, the waiting and the weight shift. But once we dropped and the g force basically kicked in I felt secure and enjoyed it. Not going up again though lol :)

[@kob6912]

It feels like forever when you’re up there, waiting for the sweet release of death XD

[@zaynahsultan514]

ouch110 Fragrance Reviews its dead ass just 8~10 seconds waiting not that long when u count along

[@nightmaremike1092]

Bro im a bit scared. Im heading out this weekend going to face my fear lmaooooo god

[@YYugi4500]

Hell no. I will stay on the ground

[@LaharlD2]

YYugi4500 lol

[@IsaArts2930]

I'm going tomorrow, GOINGGG

[@Maui1of1]

Lol

[@andythatsit]

this thing is the scariest thing I've ever been in to. omg. It's like dying hahaha. I'll probably do it again.

[@LaharlD2]

Andrea Isabel It's like a near-death experience. lol

[@Retr0ver4]

Can I just say, your so cute.

[@AnnieBrackett88]

“It’s like dying hahaha, I’ll probably do it again” 😂😂😂😂

[@bidenisacommunistpuppet.3831]

Live once die twice

[@RADZADproductions]

HOLY SH.. "CAW"

[@novai6554]

RADZADproductions Found you

[@oliviacupcake8347]

BHA

[@CorvetteLS7427]

That’s cool, never seen a drop ride, tilt a rider looking straight down when they reach the top, that makes it more scarier, love it.

[@eriklakeland3857]

Your body weight leaning into the restraint as you’re looking at the ground? That’s absolutely nuts

[@David-gj9qr]

Yeah I'm pretty sure it's the only one that does that so as of right now it's a one of a kind experience

[@stacex-em7ym]

@@David-gj9qr theres one in georgia called acrophobia it also does that but its not as high

[@drxgon9296]

I loved this as a kid and I still do! It’s still my favorite ride from when I was 8/9!

[@Rain-cg8zg]

I rode this once and I loved it so much,it gave me such an adrenaline rush!!

[@jec8992]

Awesome ride, been on it so many times i miscounted, its a bit short, but the view and thrill is incredible.

[@awkwardgeek4694]

When you guys drop, does your stomach feel uncomfortable.

[@jec8992]

imgoofyandogoofythings O well No not at all :)

[@awkwardgeek4694]

Jonathan Cronin okay. But does it feel like your stomach goes up.

[@jec8992]

Not really. All you feel is wind and adrenaline. Most drop towers you feel like your stomach goes up but this one not at all.

[@awkwardgeek4694]

Jonathan Cronin okay, thanks so much.

[@Stefy-kw6bl]

I rodé THIS on a field trip and when we were REALLY HIGH I was like okay we're here to the top and I LOOK UP and were not even half way there :))

[@jackrodakthemovieguy1726]

Me: you don’t have to look down on a drop tower BGT: hold my falcon

[@michaelnobles2643]

His reaction is priceless, lmao!!! Truth be told, that'd be my reaction too, lol!

[@andrewcrisp9391]

We were in florida for two weeks and just got back to Britain. We did disney, universal, seaworld and busch Gardens. Mako at seaworld was very good but falcons fury was the highlight of holiday. To be honest I nearly backed out, but we'd come a long way and am I glad I did it!! It was brilliant, awesome, the rush you get is fantastic. If you visit busch Gardens I urge you to ride it.

[@777osbaldo1]

Glad you like Busch gardens. It's basically my childhood theme park and my favorite them park in Florida.

[@jpadventures7827]

His reaction was priceless..😂

[@bucaneer21]

That's intense. It got me stressed and gave me a rush just watching it. I have a fear of heights, can handle the fear on coasters and such, but this looks a little over the top for me. LOL, gotta try it, face that FEAR!

[@likeabroe6131]

I was scared as hell at falcons fury! I also feel the fear when I watch this Video! :D thanks for that Flashback.

[@berserkrhadley]

Never get tired of this vid! Love the terror in Banks' voice. (I hope to experience this some day)

[@evolfreezer11]

probably the best ride I have and ever will ride. its so exhilarating

[@crysissouls]

his reaction was hilarious

[@chelseafn104]

I would have screamed just like that guy!!!

[@wacky7901]

Haha his reaction was legit me 😂😂😂

[@angedelelux]

omg, this ride looks SOOOOOOO cool!!!

[@TheSlimmkitty]

My daughter and I took my mother there today. It was my second trip to Busch Gardens. The first trip was February 25th and both Sheikra and Falcon's Fury were down. I rode booth today, along with the others. Sheikra is AMAZINGGGG, but Falcon's Fury is my favorite ride of all time! I can't wait to go back and ride it again! I love roller coasters and thrill rides, and I think these type of rides are intimidating for some people. Either ur all in or ur not, there's no in between. I think everyone should ride it, but I understand no it everyone likes rides such as this. But if u don't ride it, ur missing out on an amazing experience!!!

[@thelouisianimal8782]

I recently went to Busch gardens 2 weeks ago. I rode every costs 2 and 2 of them 4 times. Falcons fury was so much fun

[@eibyvelasquez7088]

I did this ride and wait time was just 10 and just went back and rode it again.

[@caffeinatedtrouble]

This ride would make for an excellent date 😂

[@jacycolon7696]

That looks awesome !!!!!

[@BenJAMMIN03]

Ive been on crazy rides, but this one was terrifyingly fun

[@K0s101]

so it's kinda like a very short "skydive"?

[@si1iege]

William VanOrd except ur strapped to a ton of metal.

[@todtodster1613]

take skydiving and multiply it by about 8

[@BlueZirnitra]

Tod Todster Wtf? I think you'll find skydiving is higher, faster and more dangerous than this by at least 8 times.

[@jasonchristopher4886]

Skydiving surprisingly isnt as fast though

[@fab122s]

Love this video.

[@CK33805]

I live 30 minutes from Busch Gardens and just went on this for the first time yesterday. It really freaked me out cause i don't like heights and I always have a fear of equipment failure.

[@ianc6124]

Krieg The brakes on the ride cannot fail, as they are magnets. And if the harness failed the buckle can keep you in place. Also with the catch car,if you stop in the middle of the tower they can drop you then and there and will you make it down safely. Nothing to worry about :)

[@OhioBoyDon]

The worst part is hanging there!!! Scares the f*** outta me, but it's SO FUN!

[@richbrianisfire3184]

LOL DOES ANYONE ELSE ALWAYS LAUGH WHEN THEY FACE THE GROUND AND DROP OR IS IT JUST ME

[@genesisvazquez7395]

I went on it twice two weeks ago. Definitely scary lol

[@MrObrien01]

Definitely do this been skydiving twice once at 14,000 feet and been on Zumanjaro which has a 415 foot drop

[@3KayWild]

Love this ride so much!

[@epic_animegamer987deathnin8]

i rode this and when we started facing down i was like nope im done these are my reactions out of emojis. 😀😀😀☺

[@j.flanegien6373]

It is great! I went the other night during the Howl o Scream, it was awesome!

[@lizchrisandsofiasmith9360]

Me too😊

[@thethewhenimet]

I want this ride in my backyard so I can just ride it whenever.

[@mj-sq7ii]

I’m probably the only one that likes the williamsburg one better. Plus it has a better view. I do like that they face you down in this one though it makes it very exciting.

[@JoniahWithAJ]

The guy was hilarious!!!

[@jennaostroff3563]

This was the scariest thing i've ever rode

[@nahjelsalomon8583]

Fr

[@derisleybrittain]

Excellent ❤️❤️❤️❤️🤞🤞🤞🤞

[@thenasakidscience7633]

On the top if I ride that ride I whould start screaming !!!

[@mangobitties1152]

Like I'm literally at Busch Gardens rn... and debating if I should do this!!! I'm scared... but prepared

[@jesse4270]

I love the eagle sound !

[@rockrousey250oingoboingo9]

i think the tall guy on the left towards the end is Jesse camp. good to still see him working.

[@MrDonut37]

Just went on this today! So crazy

[@michelleviana1239]

Não tive coragem de ir. Deu muito medo. Fui só em algumas montanhas russas pq meu namorado e meus amigos insistiram muito 😂😂😂

[@omiexx]

we went to bush gardens for our 5th grade field trip just like 2 days ago ( which was May 20 2015 ) and yuh my friend went on that ride and yo, he came out like he was died! he said he lost his soul in tht ride! DAM IT WAS FUNNY! xD

[@chyannecollins2761]

I went to busch gardens yesteday and it was closed, which is sad cause that's pretty much the reason I went

[@libslayer0078]

Were going on May 6th. Last time I was there they were still testing it.

[@largol33t1]

How did they mount the cameras? Are there holes drilled in to fit the tripod attachment joint?

[@alfiejones457]

I went on this a few weeks ago it's amazing

[@TeddyLove101]

I hear this ride going everyday

[@zionv2163]

I would scream like a little girl on this!!! Even before the ride gets to the top.

[@Heavens-Humanaterian-Army]

I love his reaction so much thats awsome....only problem with this ride is that they don't keep it facing down all the way to the bottom...when I build a similar version to this im so going to make it face down...for the whole decent.

[@rxvelins1389]

I tried to get my sister to ride rollercoasters wit me and she was like no thats way too scary then she saw this ride and she was like I wanna ride that one and I was like oh hell naw the only ride I wont get on

[@carsenbartlett2368]

Rode that ride favorite ride now

[@LiveMusic821]

This was scarier then any so called Big coaster i have ever been on . Very high then when they tilt you face to the ground your like wow

[@rfi-cryptolab4251]

When it pulls you in and you fall like a skydiver it actually is much more enjoyable as you do not get the weightlessness feeling from a drop tower.

[@filmdamovies7642]

Wow they are really brave when I was at Bushgardens I only road the cheeta hunt

[@theamericanbrandgamer1854]

YOOOOOOO THAT DROP IS SO SLOW MOTION LIKE

[@noone5451]

I should have went on it again 😂😂😂😂

[@alecedwards7265]

The only thing bad about this is that when they tilt you they keep you up so long

[@justinroll1443]

I rode Falcons Fury and I'll never do it again. When I got off the ride I could barely walk around for an hour.

[@sydneyskidis7710]

doesn't it tilt back up when it hits the orange area?

[@yugiohguy]

What channel is this on?

[@wandaalbelo4304]

the best!!!!!!

[@ashleyalexander359]

longest but funnest 3 secs ever

[@demsterclippy4252]

No rides has scared me so much.

[@1972Cathy]

Love Busch Gardens. It opened the year I was born. Clean beautiful park. NOW, about this new ride. I was terrified just "taking" this ride on YT. Can you imagine it getting stuck in the tucked under position? I will pass on this one. Took me 2 years to get up my nerve to go on SheiKra, but having done so, well I nearly fall asleep on it. This new ride I will pass on it. I know my limit.

[@yugiohguy]

You're 65 years old?

[@1972Cathy]

Not yet. Your about 10 years off in the less direction. Thanks

[@yugiohguy]

Cathy Meyer 1940?

[@jolied7276]

they screamed more then i did yesterday

[@elusiveanomaly3296]

I went to Busch Gardens with my girlfriend a year ago and Falcons Fury was still under construction.We went on the Sheikra and I was a bit nervous before hand.Now mind you,I've got full tattoo sleeves and most of my body tatted and I was feeling scared as shit.I didn't want my girlfriend thinking that I was a big püssy so I went on the damn coaster.That first drop was where I lost my brand new hat and mp3 Oakley sunglasses and nearly shit my pants.But the adrenaline was a high like no other and afterwards I felt stupid for the way I acted.Good times!

[@ReleafRelaxation]

Done that ride 3 times :P lol fun and scary

[@alistermcconachie1218]

Scariest ride I've been on..

[@drxgon9296]

The scariest part is going up!

[@TeddyLove101]

Which one is more intense sherika or falcon fury??

[@ThahWorst]

TeddyLove 101 well.... falcon fury is higher than sherika but falcon fary goes fast and finishes fast so in the end it might just be fun ;] once u try it but sherika dosent finishs super fast and ur going all away down its a bit terifying.,,, maybe for u idk..

[@LaharlD2]

ThahWorst I agree

[@chaoticnutmeg]

Definitely Falcon's Fury. Hands down. I'm a huge thrill ride junkie. I do love Sheikra. But the only 'thrilling' part of it, is the drop. And it's only thrilling if you sit on the edge seats so you're looking straight down at the ground and not coaster tracks. But Falcon's Fury.. That ride made my heart pound. It seemed like it took forever to get to the top. And when you thought you were high enough.. You still weren't there. And the fact that when they flip you on your stomach, you literally fall to the front of the harness. And just wait to drop. It's Intense but amazing.

[@yugiohguy]

NutmegA7X but sheikra has 2 vertical/near vertical drops, and an inversion

[@krystianqwert969]

NutmegA7X kraina lodow

[@jasonc.4472]

I went on it, not enough for me, thought it would be better.

[@katyaweikel3922]

I love this ride, yet it is terrifying. Its one of those things you don't watch or think about you just do it.

[@theretrogamingnerd3316]

This ride is not as scary as it looks.

[@elsabito5763]

Yea I was so scared but it wasn't too bad

[@katiebradley7780]

yeah it is when you're not huge on heights to begin with.

[@presidential3228]

its not scary but a thrill

[@reyrivera119]

The worst part is when you’re waiting for the drop. It feels like an hour.

[@bananaman8287]

I have passes for this place :)

[@terryfont-gonzalez2853]

i went on this its not as scary as it looks its so much fun i went on it 15 times in a row

[@pinellasparkthunderbirdsan7748]

That Is Really High!

[@user-eo4vg4ob8u]

I have been on it. It was scary

[@ThahWorst]

Notice how they were the only ones reacting brutal.

[@kristinwebb1224]

Fav

[@dollsNcats]

Lol it looks fun to me. Wish the restraint didn’t make me so claustrophobic:(

[@qaehz]

WHY THE ADSSSSSSSS

[@filipeaugustodaniel7131]

If the mechanics failed, people would experience an uncomfortable sensation!! :|

[@awkwardgeek4694]

O.o bofl

[@filipeaugustodaniel7131]

I meant that if the seat doesn't turn at the right point of the drop, people's life wouldn't be in a big risk; however, if it breaks and people are still facing the ground, the inertia would be painful. It's a pretty risky ride.

[@awkwardgeek4694]

***** I understood it. Lol

[@filipeaugustodaniel7131]

hahaha sorry, I thought you were being sarcastic :p

[@awkwardgeek4694]

***** lol. Its fine.

[@TheLousyGames]

They were doing testing or something on that, and i heard the brakes on it like a mile away.

[@tillytruavideography]

Do you have the urge to scream on that ride when it starts to go down

[@whoareyou1540]

Yeah

[@brunnopsoares]

awesome

[@kingwoe7237]

I ride this atleast 5 time every time I go

[@turnnintires9114]

looks fun

[@alannaandkelsey1809]

I rode that so did my 8 year old brother !

[@purplesassygirl]

Lmao lol nice ride

[@ThemeParkOverLoadChannel]

"WE GOT THIS, HOLY (caww)"

[@Hi-uv7nn]

I feel like this would be less scary than a normal drop ride

[@yeleinyizquierdo8907]

100 percent NO

[@richcowan737]

i would totally do this!
