I was on this ride 10 years ago. I remember being at the very top of the tower... waiting for it to drop. The anticipation is really terrifying... and it was windy and I could feel the tower was swaying back & forth. That was more terrifying than the drop itself.
The anticipation 100% is what makes drop towers so freaky haha This summer I've been to drop towers at Kings Island, Hersheypark, and Six Flags Great America...they all had in common was that the anxiety up at the top knowing that the thing could fall at any second was way scarier than the actual drop haha
The person I was with made me ride this even though I didnt want to and then when we were waiting at the top they looked over at me and said,"maybe this was a bad idea."
I went to King's Island many times one summer, and it took me a long time to find the courage to ride this one. But the day I did, my stomach was all in knots. About a third of the way up, I was freaking out that maybe I made a mistake. Then it just kept going up. By the time we were at the top, my heart was pounding more fiercely than it ever had before. You don't really understand how high it is until you are actually on it. That drop...it was more exhilarating than any of the other rides I had been on. Terrifying as it was, I immediately wanted to ride it again. I did. Lol, it was more terrifying the second time because I knew what to expect.
This ride is nothing compared to Disneyland's Guardians of the galaxy. That thing shoots you up at high speed then drops you back to where you started, then drops you in a hole, then shoots you up again and drops you back down. None of it is slow, and it throws you up six times with random stops and drops. Mostly in the dark.
This is the same ride that broke down when my cousin was on it, it got stuck at the top for 15 minutes and out of nowhere it just dropped without anyone knowing, They all thought they was falling to their deaths because the ride broke
Apparently the brakes are magnetic so they're always working 24/7 so people don't die. But OMG that sounds like the most terrifying drop experience anyone could have! Glad they're ok
It's the one drop tower that gets everything right. Great view, great thrills, and to my knowledge a fantastic safety record. I try to always start a Kings Island trip with Drop Zone
I got on this ride with my sister maybe in 2005-2006. I was terrified when I realized how high we were and closed my eyes. She told me to open them right before it dropped and I thought my eyeballs were about to pop out but I enjoyed it. RIP TEE❤
totally agree with you fast roller coasters, gives me double vision after the ride, because the world is passing around me like a mad fast forwarding photo slide show 😆 even though i went to ride drop tower only once about 1 year ago as it dropped i screamed automatically and when it ended i was smiling ear to ear was one of the best rides in my life
me and my friend are going to kings island on friday and she said me and her should go to the tdrop tower and i said ok and we will and did u know that this drop tower is the biggest one in the whole world bc it's 1 inch away to being the same height as the actual eiffle tower
REVIEW: Personally this ride was epic. You slowly rise to the top and get an incredible view like the Eiffel tower. Rate 7/10 scary because as soon as that drop hits, s### goes down. Weightlessness and the full experience for 4-5 seconds. When I went on it, the straps felt insecure but at least they were to protect you, right? If you're afraid of heights, or afraid of brake failure, this shouldn't be on your list xP
@@_3y did you not hear about it? It happened two days ago on this exact same one, he fell right out of his seat while way up in the sky and fell to his death, the ride is now closed
Every time i go to Kings Island, I always ride the hell out of this ride. The negative G forces feel the strongest out of all of them, ( falcons fury, zumajarro drop at great adventure and the one at magic mountain) In my opinion. it tickles the tummy so hard when it drops. lol
It was my 2nd ride that I went to that day and the banshee was way less scarier than that. the banshee is probably the least scariest ride there in my opinion (other than the carisall and scrambler)
This was the first ride I rode at kings island and I didn’t see it come down before and my cousin was like it’s ok it slowly comes down it’s just so u can see the park and I was like cool...do I want on it and at the top literally 1 second before we dropped she was like oh and by the was this drops I was like SHIT 😂
Yeah I can easily see how that could happen. The waiting line wraps around under a canopy and you cannot see upward at all until you're walking up to your seat. It's nerve wracking waiting to fall, but the view is spectacular up top! Exhilarating!
About 20 years ago I went on that ride when it was new and it got stuck at the top for around 20-30 minutes and they were finally able to let us down real slowly and when we got down the big wigs where out there handing out free admission tickets and drinks and all kinds of free stuff. Talk about nerve racking.
I agree i was crying my sister was like close your eyes when i opened my eyes bc i thought the ride broke down i dropped and i was getting lifted up in the air
I rode a ride exactly like this in Dubai. When it was ascending I was like “oh cool!” ...and then as it got higher and higher I was like.....I’m gonna die....and then it reached to the tippity top and I thought oh man, now I’m really gonna die....and without warning it just dropped and I felt like my stomach was going to explode! The free fall was only about maybe 6-7 seconds? But it felt like I was screaming my lungs out for minutes!
I am an amateur physicist and I propose an interesting experiment for Turbo Drop. When boarding the amusement ride, take with you a smartphone prepared for filming, a 200 ml transparent plastic cup with 5/4 of the total volume filled with water. Also take a properly unpacked effervescent tablet. Before the tower begins the falling process, add the effervescent tablet to the water and start filming. At the moment of free fall, the gas bubbles leaving the tablet must stop rising and most of them will remain involved in the tablet.
The first time I went to kings island I rode this and it scared the shit out of me. I never rode it again until 7 years later when I finally had enough courage to get back on it. Needless to say I rode it 5 more times that day and I will ride it again my next trip there.
I was terrified going up my first time, but once it dropped holy crap was it awesome... Nothing like that freefall with the wind blowing against your face...
This must be the Drop Tower in Mason, Ohio. The Drop Tower at Carowinds in Charlotte, North Carolina needs to be designed in the same way. Apparently, both of them were manufactured by the same company because they look exactly alike. Nevertheless, the one at Carowinds is smaller and only has a seating capacity of 16 persons per ride.
Ridden it several times - what a thrill! But I'd never ride the one that has "swings" up so high. It's somewhere close to the Beast if I remember correctly.
My first time on a same size one of these was terrific yet terrifying at the same time. Not even at the half way mark most people begin to regret it. And on the way down it feels like the skin on your face is melting into your skull and all your organs feel like they are going into your rib cage from the G Force
lol I remember when my best friend started crying when we got to the top, lip quivering and everything... not being an a**hole or anything to laugh at her but I just had that type of relationship with her iykyk, but I thought I was going to choke on my spit I was laughing without sound that’s how funny it was to hear complete silence and look and she her crying, while trying to prepare myself to drop without warning I thought it was my last day. Lol.
Bru I almost cried when the ride instructor said hope the ride doesn't malfunction the we get to the top and when he's says drop em my god I was terrified
My brother doesn't like heights very much but last year when my family went he went on this ride because his girlfriend at the time did at that top he looked down I was like WHY DID YOU LOOK DOWN

I was on this ride 10 years ago. I remember being at the very top of the tower... waiting for it to drop.
The anticipation is really terrifying... and it was windy and I could feel the tower was swaying back & forth. That was more terrifying than the drop itself.
When I went on one in Utah, I remember sitting at the top thinking, I hope my harness is fastened tight!
Me too. It was absolutely terrifying, and the building was swaying for me too
Exactly! That wait with the view is something else!
The anticipation 100% is what makes drop towers so freaky haha
This summer I've been to drop towers at Kings Island, Hersheypark, and Six Flags Great America...they all had in common was that the anxiety up at the top knowing that the thing could fall at any second was way scarier than the actual drop haha
I rode this and it was literally the scariest moment of my life 😂😂😂
😂
Same when I rode it when it dropped me and my cousins felt like we were gonna die🤣🤣😂😂😂
Yes
SAMEE
It's quick, but memorable!
The person I was with made me ride this even though I didnt want to and then when we were waiting at the top they looked over at me and said,"maybe this was a bad idea."
Lol
Omg!
LOL
Lol
I had once went on this drop ride and as it was going up it reached the top, and i instantly regretted it
I always go on this ride first when I go to Kings Island. I immediately regret it soon after. It's all fun and games until you get close to the top.
I imagine the people kicking there legs and holding the seat are nervous?
Are you still gonna ride this after what happened to that kid?
Who else’s heart is beating for them?!
Me
Me
So who else is here after seeing the video online
After you hear the small click when you stop at the top (which is sometimes hard to hear) start counting to 7. You drop exactly on the 7.
libby oliverio The ride I went on dropped a second after the click
it all depends on the ride operator. they can keep you up there as long as they want until they press that release button
libby oliverio THANK YOU FOR THIS Becca’s emu riding it for the first time tormorrow
libby oliverio yes!! I did it just now
When I heard it the first time I was like holy sh**
fuck drop tower, it'll forever be called DROP ZONE in my book!!!

The people kicking their legs are the ones scared, freaking out and obviously new. I know because I do that. Lmao.
ikr!! it calms me down 😂
LAD Fan Yah I do that too lolz. Also its fun to kick your legs when youre at the top
LAD Fan I hate it when people do it because it doesn't look nice
LAD Fan right
LAD Fan they prob. Do that because they are a bit bored
on the drop you just feel like your stomach is going to come out of your butt
Abbi Womble 😂😂never thought of it that way, but yeah xD
😂😂😂
No, out of your mouth
😩😆😆
Other way round moron
The worst part is the anxiety building up inside you as it slowly rises 😰
It’s all fun and games until you die on it

I like how everyone swinging their feet gradually stops as the ride goes higher lol
Nicholas Latorre LOL
Its natural to be like...
"This is ok",sudenly gets higher than expected
"This is not ok at all"
Lmmfao😂😂😂😂
Lollll
😂🤣

MastaX 😢dude I swear I would of passed out 😟if I was in that ride and thinking I was falling to my death
MastaX
Jeeeesus!
I rode one today but at cona island but I thought I was gonna pass out
King's Island drop tower is one of the very few ride that *truely* drove a legit fear in me. I still remember the ride, 10 years later.
It's the one drop tower that gets everything right. Great view, great thrills, and to my knowledge a fantastic safety record. I try to always start a Kings Island trip with Drop Zone
My inspiring words as I’m going up “ I’m not gonna die, I promise I’m not gonna die” as I drop “we finna diiiiiiiiiie”
Damn, that shit is funny!
When i rode this and got to the top i screamed "pull the lever Krunk!" And when we dropped i screamed "wrong lever"
Makenzie McDaniel why do we even have that lever
That was perfect 😂😂
One of my favorite rides there, the drop never gets old
A kid died on this ride, he fell out
I like how I watching this in 2020 and looking at the people like oh I miss those times where we didn’t have to wear masks
Way better times
Such a weird feeling coming down!!!!love this ride!
I got on this ride with my sister maybe in 2005-2006. I was terrified when I realized how high we were and closed my eyes. She told me to open them right before it dropped and I thought my eyeballs were about to pop out but I enjoyed it. RIP TEE❤
ive been on this over 50 times. its so much more fun than any of the rollercoasters in my opinion :D
Wow 50 times??
totally agree with you
fast roller coasters, gives me double vision after the ride, because the world is passing around me like a mad fast forwarding photo slide show 😆
even though i went to ride drop tower only once about 1 year ago
as it dropped i screamed automatically and when it ended
i was smiling ear to ear
was one of the best rides in my life
The biggest tower i've been on is just 50 feet. This one is MASSIVE compared to that. I could cry this is scary as hell.:p
Jas I’m gonna go up to 40p ft today -.-
me and my friend are going to kings island on friday and she said me and her should go to the tdrop tower and i said ok and we will and did u know that this drop tower is the biggest one in the whole world bc it's 1 inch away to being the same height as the actual eiffle tower
do the outlaw run i passed out on that one
@@taylartirado7968 How old are you, 5? Bro, the Eiffel Tower is like 3 times the size of this.
@@greenw3877 ik, i was joking.don't belive everything u hear but the story of me going there was true tho.
REVIEW: Personally this ride was epic. You slowly rise to the top and get an incredible view like the Eiffel tower. Rate 7/10 scary because as soon as that drop hits, s### goes down. Weightlessness and the full experience for 4-5 seconds. When I went on it, the straps felt insecure but at least they were to protect you, right?
If you're afraid of heights, or afraid of brake failure, this shouldn't be on your list xP
Brake failure?? 😂
Thankfully this second gen Intamin drop tower or drop zone has magnetic brakes, so it will always have the brakes on.
@@_3y a kid died on this ride

LOVED THIS! Can't wait to ride it many more times this summer!
Did anyone notice mostly everyone was wearing jeans😂
Lol I just noticed that
As opposed to???
Of course they needed it. Something to hold shit just in case someone messes themselves up.
@@tholli954
well of course
"Calvin Klein jeans, ... or nothing at all"
I noticed that lol
Imagine if it spun as it went down?
Calvin Williams I thought at first that it did that lol
If it spun and tilted.
Chloe & Rosco Random! That will be bizarre!
@@miahbee2187 . The
Oh lord no!
I've been on this one 2 days ago, I loved it!!!!!
After the "click" count to 7 and forget about trying to scream until later haha
This Is true I screamed the first time that was a mistake. Fun ride though still get anxiety everytime
when your too scared to go on the ride yourself you record other people on it
Every time i go to Kings Island, I always ride the hell out of this ride. The negative G forces feel the strongest out of all of them, ( falcons fury, zumajarro drop at great adventure and the one at magic mountain) In my opinion. it tickles the tummy so hard when it drops. lol
4:05 James Charles's subscriber count be like
Good one
Fire Rocket finally someone replies
im laughing so hard-
💀💀💀
Yikes, this really aged well with his recent allegations...💀
This ride is so addictive 😂😂 I remember riding it like 5 times in a row. And like someone else said. This will always be DROP ZONE!
A kid died on this ride, he fell straight out and died
@@awkwardfreakinperson7936 yes I saw 🥺
See the people kicking their legs and moving their arms? Yeah those are the people who are new and totally freaked out people.
That's me
it was fun when I did it my friend said why did you bring me on this ride and I was sorry then we drop she said let's do it again
Jess Wolves Bane no they probably do it because they have nothing to do
You kidding me? I’ve rode that thing a hundred times and I still kick my legs 😂
Taller than leviathan?
Yes.
omg I could never go on that!!
lol i went on it :D it was my 1st time there
Alina Koprowski Same.
It was my 2nd ride that I went to that day and the banshee was way less scarier than that. the banshee is probably the least scariest ride there in my opinion (other than the carisall and scrambler)
QTBlondeXO I whole-heartedly disagree: I believe the Elevator on the Eiffel Tower is the least scary. XD
I can't either XD I'm so scared and I'm going there this Sunday
This was the first ride I rode at kings island and I didn’t see it come down before and my cousin was like it’s ok it slowly comes down it’s just so u can see the park and I was like cool...do I want on it and at the top literally 1 second before we dropped she was like oh and by the was this drops I was like SHIT 😂
Yeah I can easily see how that could happen.
The waiting line wraps around under a canopy and you cannot see upward at all until you're walking up to your seat.
It's nerve wracking waiting to fall, but the view is spectacular up top!
Exhilarating!
😂😂😂
Count to ten when your at the top
Mysterious Girl
They change it up. It’s a different time evrey ride.
Mysterious Girl right I’d only maybe go on there if my half sister said I’ll let you fuck just maybe I would
Purple 79 lol wtf
Stop It. Get Some Help. Yep
Mysterious Girl it is 12
About 20 years ago I went on that ride when it was new and it got stuck at the top for around 20-30 minutes and they were finally able to let us down real slowly and when we got down the big wigs where out there handing out free admission tickets and drinks and all kinds of free stuff.

Oh no..! Life is short, dont make it shorter, man... :0
omg!! I literly rode it yesterday it was so mcuh fun!!!
The Wind force pushes you down in your seat!
COOL! I went on sky rush last week lol
I hate the ride my opinion
I loved this ride I love diamond backs feeling but just felt a little short but this you go straight down with your feet dangling haha 😱
At 4 minutes in, see where the catch car is? Something sticks out of it and pushes the car down! Did anyone else notice that
+Leonardo Bruzzone Yeah I think it triggers something so the car knows when to let go.
My dad made me ride this with him when I was a kid and I will never get on these things again 😂 I really love the vibing music as they rise and turn
I’ve been on loads of scary rides, roller coasters with the highest drops and all, this is the scariest ride I’ve ever been on
This ride fire😩😩
Best Drop Tower I've ridden so far
Lo.mas chingon que me apasado¡ es averte subido 20 veces
I’m a little kid and this was the best ride of my life
I luv that they played Atomic Dog for this video
This I literally the best moment of my life.... I met God when I rode this
i was on this ride 4 days ago still scares my heart out
i was on one taller before and the drop part isnt scarry its the WHEN IS IT GONNA HAPPEN!
I agree i was crying my sister was like close your eyes when i opened my eyes bc i thought the ride broke down i dropped and i was getting lifted up in the air
I rode a ride exactly like this in Dubai. When it was ascending I was like “oh cool!” ...and then as it got higher and higher I was like.....I’m gonna die....and then it reached to the tippity top and I thought oh man, now I’m really gonna die....and without warning it just dropped and I felt like my stomach was going to explode! The free fall was only about maybe 6-7 seconds? But it felt like I was screaming my lungs out for minutes!
Best drop tower ever! Hands down!!!
The scariest part it when it drops and sounds like it breaks 😂
This is my third favorite ride at Kings Island, 1st being Banshee, 2nd being Diamondback, and of course 3rd being Drop Tower
I am an amateur physicist and I propose an interesting experiment for Turbo Drop. When boarding the amusement ride, take with you a smartphone prepared for filming, a 200 ml transparent plastic cup with 5/4 of the total volume filled with water.

At the moment of free fall, the gas bubbles leaving the tablet must stop rising and most of them will remain involved in the tablet.
GREAT DROP TOWER : SCREAM ZONE OFF-RIDE HD KINGS ISLAND !!!
Love this ride , takes your breath away while you scream! And I love banchee the most 😍

Love Kings Island!
Wow that line is so massive for a ride so frightening! :0
My 8 year old loves this ride. Thank God for his dad because I sure as heck wont ride it with him lol
I was terrified going up my first time, but once it dropped holy crap was it awesome... Nothing like that freefall with the wind blowing against your face...
Scariest, highest and best drop tower I have been on. I recommend it.
WOW That DROP looks AWESOME!!!
this is the best ride in the world I thought it would be scary when I first got on in but when I got off I got right back on it.🎢🎢🎢
I’ve been on this before and it was so fun plus I could see The Great Wolf Lodge’s waterslides
person: were at the top
Person: I DROPED MY SHOES
I'm holding hands with the person sitting next to me even if I don't know them 😂

Now every time I hear the song "Atomic Dog" I’m gonna think of this! 😂
When it went down I couldn't breathe!
Did this TODAY FIRST TIME OMG
I rode this for the first time yesterday and at the top my friend said “If u don’t catch your breath before we fall u gonna pass out😂🤪
So I just went to Kings Island yesterday and rode this ride, all I could think about while going up is that I made a mistake getting on
I love the song in the back atomic dog
@Vincent Campanella Carowinds has a Giant Drop model instead of Gyro. This means there are separate sections as opposed to one that can rotate
Ridden it several times - what a thrill! But I'd never ride the one that has "swings" up so high. It's somewhere close to the Beast if I remember correctly.
this ride scared the shot outta me 🔥
Kings island is closed, but when it opens again- OH HECK IMA RIDE DROP TOWER FOR THE 10TH TIME!
TANTA EMOCIÓN PARA QUE LO BAJEN TAN RÁPIDO 🤷♀️🤷♀️
Just watching it makes my heart overflow with blood
I rode a drop tower called the Rocket at Lagoon in Utah. It scared the crap out of me too! I never rode it again!
DONT worry your completely safe on this ride
My first time on a same size one of these was terrific yet terrifying at the same time. Not even at the half way mark most people begin to regret it. And on the way down it feels like the skin on your face is melting into your skull and all your organs feel like they are going into your rib cage from the G Force

Lol.
OMG I GOT ON THIS I WAS S SCARED WHEN YOU DROP IT LITERALLY TAKES YOUR BREATH AWAY
One time when I was on one of these I looked over to my mom and legit asked, “are we gonna die?”
This ride in any iteration is mortifying!
Oh hell no
Bru I almost cried when the ride instructor said hope the ride doesn't malfunction the we get to the top and when he's says drop em my god I was terrified
Looks fun, I want to ride! 😀🎢
I love those rides
screm zone more like freaking out zone
more like panic attack zone
My brother doesn't like heights very much but last year when my family went he went on this ride because his girlfriend at the time did at that top he looked down I was like WHY DID YOU LOOK DOWN
more like death zone
I love kings island go there every weekend because I live 5 min away
my favorite drop tower next to Falcon's Fury! :P
We should have that big ride in our country. It must feel nice riding that! xD
