LOVED THIS RIDE!

[@Noboyfriendsnoproblems]

me to buddy

[@bulkyspud1842]

In its hayday Darien lake was one of the best. It’s ok now. When built this was insane. Now it’s an average ride.

[@bohba13]

still intense as all fuck.

[@jeffj1s669]

i was there the same day. thanks for posting this

[@allydonut1978]

I love this ride SOOOO much

[@MrSharky23me]

Use to work at Darien Lake. This ride is so smooth and fun! Rode it at least 100 times!

[@sophiaacompora9037]

I went on this ride today best ride ever. It was mine and my friends first time on a roller coaster. And we ended up going on this one Awesome.

[@zoedale1930]

I always feel bad when I see this ride, I feel horrible about what happened to the man on this ride but then I remembered he chose not to have his fake legs on each time i see this ride I always say a little pray to him and wish his family the best of luck

[@blabxhg2670]

He was going to sue them if he was not on the ride.

[@rezaimran98]

Zee Zee3 What happened exactly?

[@joem8488]

RezaImranNinetyEight® Ex so!dier w no legs. He wanted to ride and talked them into it I think. There's no shoulder harness. He was thrown off and died.

[@eddie3374]

Its his fault the park told him not to go on this but he insisted

[@quinnkids177]

His and the employees fault

[@tntplumbing24]

I’m coming to Six Flags Darien Lake next week! And I’m going on the rides! Since I’m tall enough for this big ride, while my mom will stay with my brother at the Waterpark while my stepdad rides this with me

[@howler-gacha3784]

I'm going on the ride of steel and I hopefully can face my fears of heights!!So please wish me some luck!!

[@tntplumbing24]

I’m exactly at the height you need to be to ride this! When I went on this, I loved it!

[@aerotrooper]

So underrated.

[@CoopTheShark]

THIS IS MY FAV RIDE IN THE WHOLE PARK

[@Booga04Minecraft]

I still can't believe I went on this! xD

[@thelittletoaster6147]

I'm going to Darien lake tomorrow and I'm nervous but excited because it's my first time going there

[@Freddy-lp6fv]

lmfao they have home depot buckets laying around gosh

[@rohitkashyap9904]

I only went to Darien Lake once and I want to go again.

[@tntplumbing24]

I went on this like 1,000 times when I was here

[@fiaschifabrications4852]

One day in August My friend and I went on that coaster 20 times in a row in 2 hours

[@Jonah192837465]

Darien Lake only has 1 train for all of there coasters.

[@captainobvious3767]

+Jonah Williamson well not really. The coasters all have second trains but they are under the stations hence the reason why there is extra track leading from by or under the stations. I currently work at this park and the staff says they only get the trains out on busy days. but every day is nearly busy. But whatever they want to do.

[@ryanr2885]

No, the only coaster with train storage under the station is Viper, and that was for the third train that Viper originally had. Currently, the second trains were either salvaged for parts or in storage, but they aren’t on the tracks at all and not operational. Ride of Steel doesn’t even have a second train anymore. They bought a new RoS train in 2016, and scrapped the two old trains.

[@Coolsomeone234]

Yep. They were all sold during Non-Six Flags ownership

[@CoasterCrab]

Everyone sorta hates on this ride but it looks neat to me :D

[@DustySprinkles]

CoasterCrab Sorry this comment is a year late lol. But, it is an awesome ride. It’s really fun, and the best roller coaster at the park. It’s intense and smooth. There’s a crap ton of airtime. People hate it because a leg-less veteran (poor guy) died while riding it. Since he had no legs, there was noting to anchor him to the cart. (He also demanded that he rode it) Since then, they have redone the carts.

[@tntplumbing24]

It’s the exact same thing as the ride of steel at Six Flags America. Only difference is they go opposite directions

[@vuhzz]

I know this comment is two years old but bro you sound stupid

[@charleyhibschweiler4555]

Make sure to sit on the left side of the train.

[@yeet1765]

averagecoasterenthusiast why?

[@charleyhibschweiler4555]

The first banked turn is much more comfortable.

[@yeet1765]

averagecoasterenthusiast Oh ok! Thanks. Im probably going on this for the first time this summer so thats good to know :)

[@CoasterCrab]

Am I allowed to use any of your povs? Not to claim it as my one video, I'd give credit I'm just wondering cause I want to make a top 10 with povs

[@jacobhastings210]

its awsome

[@jacklatham7143]

I was supposed to go on it last summer but COVID hit I’m going on it this year boys I hope I don’t become the next dead man on this ridem

[@Headead5231]

Rode this at night at 34% night in October

Thunderbolt - Ride of Wood Mind Eraser - Ride of Pain

[@tessa125]

I went on this! This exact ride!!

[@rice2059]

yo man i k u probably won’t respond but is this ride intense ima ride it and it’s my first giga coaster

[@dl1083]

I never understood that straight track. Why not include an airtime hill? If they want you to take a nice look at that sad excuse for a pond, an airtime hill would keep you there longer anyway

[@NickyD]

dont get why this doesn't run 2 trains

[@elnuevoo.r.m1915]

This coaster looks very funny.

[@archimedes398]

When your too scared to actually ride so you watch the other people suffer on this ride. :'>

[@sevenamazingcats7042]

Yusha it's fun

[@shawnstevens9765]

I live near Darien and I love this ride

[@quinnkids177]

Make sure you ride it you're missing out

[@quinnkids177]

We don't suffer we have fun lol

[@Booga04Minecraft]

It's not suffering, it's sooo much fun omg

[@emstevenzz]

went on this twice. literally my elbows were bruised because i held on so tight lmao. once the drop hit i came off my seat and i was TERRIFIED

[@cxlliiie8427]

It’s fun once you go on it a lot of times .sometimes at the end of the day I went I got to go on the first seat. You’ll get used to it!

[@thatonekid7427]

I’ve riden vertical drop coasters but never one with this big of a drop. Any tips how to overcome my fear of long drops? Going to Darien this week

[@kaydub0623]

rip no replies

[@nathaneverything2219]

Now put a time lapse at 1:00

[@SiebayPlays]

The ride layout makes sense in Darien Lake. SFA could’ve made it better, like what they did with Bizarro. It’s sad to think both of these rides are the best in their parks. Not that they’re bad rides, but because they’re clones.

[@sweet_demonic_dreams4614]

I never rode it before because the one time I was there I wasn't old enough

[@supremekermite9101]

I got on this shit I was scared shit less on the drop but where I’m from the drop was way bigger

[@brycefourn2001]

Nice LOV!

[@brycefourn2001]

*POV

[@IC-lg5ll]

You love him? Lol

[@brycefourn2001]

Theme Park Ninja I meant POV!

[@tntplumbing24]

This park is now owned by six flags again

[@snowalex5675]

Just watching this makes me queasy

[@tntplumbing24]

When I went here and rode this there was only 1 train

[@IC-lg5ll]

How does this compare to the other Intamin Hypers you have ridden?

[@biggdave104]

The only other Intamin hyper I've ridden so far is Skyrush. This ride was fun but Skyrush was way more intense

[@nellingwood2]

I have not been on this one, but Intamin usually makes more unique ride elements. This looks like something straight out of Roller coaster Tycoon.

[@ledkeeganledkeegan1346]

nellingwood2 I’m pretty sure this was there first hyper I might be wrong tho

[@djradiation6407]

@@ledkeeganledkeegan1346 your not it was their frist every hyper and its nice and intense

[@99NetworkStudios]

0:58 Scariest part right here pause right at 0:58

[@lockout-lamar6376]

The ride is not even that scary tbh

[@greghiskhan7426]

The track layout could’ve been better then that...

[@mynameiskrysta]

33 seconds of slow helixes and unnecessary straight track, 32 seconds of actual g forces wtf were they thinking designing this layout

[@chase7624]

it's an unorthodox one for sure, but eventually you come to appreciate coasters in all shapes and sizes

[@giancarlofelicianocastaned9316]

82 mph isn't slow.

[@gta5tips993]

I told my friend lucy to go on with me she freaked out and I was calm

[@Scott_dot]

[@amandacrawley5374]

[@charleyhibschweiler4555]

This is my home park too :(

[@awesome929]

Amanda Crawley no I went there today and it was fun

[@ryanr2885]

It’s unfortunately my home park too :( I can’t be happy with the place until they run two trains again.

[@djradiation6407]

its not that bad and six flags is back so 2 trains ops will be coming back next year

[@johnvogus7924]

First

[@JoseRodriguez-wl9uj]

[@sevenamazingcats7042]

Jose Rodriguez I went on this thing 5 times in one day

[@tntplumbing24]

@Jose Rodriguez I went on it 9 times in 1 day!

[@howler-gacha3784]

I went on 0 times and I'm 11 because I HATE HEIGHTS!!!

[@ProsperingMan]

Loved the ride till a man flying hit me
