honestly the drop is so underrated. I'm not kidding best drop on any RMC that I've been on. and one of those RMC is Goliath supposedly one of the best drops on an RMC. RMC RMC RMC RMC RMC RMC
I just rode this for the first time yesterday. And the second time. A really great roller coaster. Second ride was late in the afternoon and it was just plain intense. Just a wonderful and exhilarating ride from the time it leaves the station. That drop? Damn. And then it just keep on getting better
And people were saying The Joker was the weakest and worst RMC... Hey, SFDK is a family park and while a fairly good GCI didn't translate well to an RMC, it's the perfect blend (imo) for a moderate family oriented park taking a good toss at thrill seekers.
I went on this, we saw it in pictures and we decided we would do it as it only has a lap bar so we were like, ok this one doesn't go upside down we should do it before the superman to get ready... oh boy we're we in for a surprise XD we had fun anyways lol I was just terrified at first XD
Just went to Six Flags Discovery Kingdom this last Friday. Went on every roller coaster except this and V2 because V2 is closed right now. This ride broke down so many times and had such long lines I didnt get around to actually riding it. Every time I'd go to get in line for it somebody would get out of line and tell everyone that it broke down or they would announce over the intercom that it was broke down.
Really nice ride! Looks like very intense. Though I really dislike the looks of RMCs' ibox coasters, with all that scaffolding going on. It looks like a construction site. :P
This is by far the best ride at discovery kingdom. That been said.. Twisted Colossus is the better RMC of the two. The Joker definitely has fun elements like 3 inversions and a unique first drop. But TC not only has more airtime, it also has speed! The joker reaches 53 mph while TC achieves 57 mph. It might not seem like a big difference, but you can definitely feel the intensity more in TC.
Pov in the back: It feels like your tugged over the drop and when it turns you get lifted out of your seat and feel a little bit of pressure. Pov in the front: Almost like the back but not as fierce because you can feel the wheels stop. An AMAZING ride so underrated
I hate riding roller coasters (make me feel literally ill) but this one looks sick (in a good way)as hell. However I saw the video of this being made before the POV ride and I thought would be a lot more intense.
I’m going to six flags on Sunday and I freaking love roller coasters but last time I went to six flags the line was to long for the Joker so I’m just wondering on a scale from 1-10 how scary is it.
Hilariously, there is a specific exemption carved out in Massachusetts's labor laws allowing SFNE to not pay overtime. Another good reason to go to Lake Compounce instead.
I was at the earlier media day, and the email invitation said absolutely no mounted POVs, yet I saw people being allowed to do so, but other people including me were not. I saw them let someone suction cup mount a GoPro to it, but I wasn't allowed to, even though I had the same exact thing.
Before I rode this the ride before us stopped at the dropping point and I was scared and right before we dropped I closed my eyes the entire time so I had no idea what has happening
I'm so sad. I have been on every single roller coaster here except for joker and daredevil only because I haven't been to six flags in over a year D: I will be going this summer though so I'm hoping I can ride joker it looks so much fun!!!
In terms of force... unfortunately probably Wicked Cyclone, but The Joker does have the fun little prelift so... I feel that Wicked Cyclone is still my #1 RMC, but that The Joker is a VERY close second... 💚💜☺🎢
Zombieface Coasters eh... I know it would fit, but I feel that since it's less than 50 feet from the the Joker, Batman would be a better fit... I mean, the track use to be yellow and the supports were blue...
Definitely my favorite ride at Discovery Kingdom!
Love hearing myself and my friends right behind the car talking about the ride!
Carter Blanchard hahaha
lol me toooo in 2019
Is that you? Cool!
Rest In Peace Roar....
Arise...The Joker....
This ride is really fun
when it's not closed
@@coasterhockygamingboy9549 woooooooooosh
It looks like medusa and twisted colossus had a baby
It kinda dose-

Just rode it today. Twice. The line looks long but it only took like 15-20 minutes which isn't too bad. Definitely worth the wait.
I was there on a day with that situation. Rode it seven times.
Shea Hedley it took 1 hour and 20 mins so i can ride it .-.
Shea Hedley Lol i had flash pass gold all of the rides we just get to cut everybody I went on Joker 5 times
Shea Hedley I got there first thing when they opened, only like 10 people in line awesome
Shea Hedley i went on it 3 times yesterday, favorite ride in the park by far.
I haven't been to Discovery Kingdom in years, but I really need to go back and ride this now!
MetalSmasherGaming its actually six flags
Same
Cielopumkin101 the park is called six flags discovery kingdom
like if six flags:discovery kingdom is the closest amusment park to you
Ulises Jimenez We have Great America
Great america ftw
Ulises Jimenez I like 15 minutes away from it and A hour away from Great America
I live 45 min from SFDK, and 1 hr from Great America
From Davis, CA. WHAT UP!
In line right now!!
How was it?
I just rode this for the first time yesterday. And the second time.
A really great roller coaster. Second ride was late in the afternoon and it was just plain intense. Just a wonderful and exhilarating ride from the time it leaves the station.
That drop? Damn. And then it just keep on getting better
Watching a playlist of RMC rides. This is one of the best by far.
That last inversion shook me 😂😫
My friend is making me go on this, pray for me
Joey Sodano same how was it 🙄
same omgjfhdjshs
@@itskarolyn3462 lol pray
@@bigbadpanda8095 lol niceeeeeeeeee
It’s so much fun
I loved this ride so much lol. It's my first RMC. This and Medusa are sooooo good.
Great Googly Moogly Same
One of the funnest rides at Six Flags
The ride time is roughly 60.14 seconds including the pre lift section.
The ride time without pre lift section is 48.26 seconds
Proof that even the worst RMC is still a pretty damn good coaster.
Coasterforce, how does this ride compare to the other rmcs?
I can’t handle rollercoasters so I go on baby ones. Thought this one was a baby ride but then came the drop...
Hilarious Jan omg meee
TheShooken Sister did you get scared lol I got scared and my face went pale
I just kinda died for the whole time😂
Same!!!
This my favorite. The ride is so fun and very smooth.
This or Storm Chaser at Kentucky Kingdom?
Roar was fun but that is so much better!
I'm lucky discovery kingdom is my six flags!!!
I haven’t been here since the summer roar was closed but not converted, I really need to come back, it’s my closest six flags

I rode this yesterday and I lost my voice
Anyone else find the screaming in the back slightly annoying?
What did u expect in a roller coaster vid? Lol
Coleman Roberts tru
Coleman Roberts lol right?
Coleman Roberts that’s so true 😁
The worst screaming on a rollercoaster video was I think of this one. The comment section is hilarious! th-cam.com/video/Y4jd5GshQa8/w-d-xo.html
Awesome POV!
I loved this ride! It was so fun but it was scary at the same time lol
Just rode this for the first time today. It was absolutely incredible!
is it worth a 2 hour wait though
This is the new classic from RMC, huh? It looks very much like Twisted Colossus. Has anyone ridden them both to compare the two?
We have and this one is more intense with more pops of airtime.
yes and it is wayyyyyyyyy better
Great, thanks for responding! Good to know.
TC has more airtime while joker has slightly more intense elements. I'd say TC the better ride
I've ridden Twisted Colossus but not this one.
I LOVE the color scheme
Just went to Six Flags Discovery Kingdom this last Friday. Went on every roller coaster except this and V2 because V2 is closed right now. This ride broke down so many times and had such long lines I didnt get around to actually riding it. Every time I'd go to get in line for it somebody would get out of line and tell everyone that it broke down or they would announce over the intercom that it was broke down.
The exact same thing happened when I went about two weeks ago and also in 2016 when it first opened. 😒
U should go back and film more at magic mountain
How was it?
Yo I rode the joker at six flags great adventure on the 27th! What a coincidence that you filmed yesterday.
Guys the drop is scarier then it looks I’ve been on this and I’m 10
Wow that looks like a thrill the whole way through
I went on it yesterday, best ride ever!!
Does it make your stomach drop a lot??
Kimberly Lopez
This coaster is buildt for airtime,
It broke yesterday and I was on it for an hour and a half
Looking foward to go on ir!
Really nice ride! Looks like very intense. Though I really dislike the looks of RMCs' ibox coasters, with all that scaffolding going on. It looks like a construction site. :P
It doesn't look so bad when supports are painted white like TC
***** Well, yes. I don't dig that look either. I'm more of a steel coaster kind of guy (I like my coasters smooth as a baby's bum) XDDDD
Damián Vila all woodies are rough cliche
Can't wait to ride this in Nov
This is by far the best ride at discovery kingdom. That been said.. Twisted Colossus is the better RMC of the two. The Joker definitely has fun elements like 3 inversions and a unique first drop.

What is a curve RMC drop like? I've done Twisted Cyclone with a twisted drop, but not this.
Pov in the back: It feels like your tugged over the drop and when it turns you get lifted out of your seat and feel a little bit of pressure.
Pov in the front: Almost like the back but not as fierce because you can feel the wheels stop.
An AMAZING ride so underrated
I hate riding roller coasters (make me feel literally ill) but this one looks sick (in a good way)as hell. However I saw the video of this being made before the POV ride and I thought would be a lot more intense.
This thing has so much airtime
I Hope GCI build's another wooden coaster. Because now the park has all steel coaster's.
Dang once you leave the station your in a good start!!
I-Box Hybrids or Topper Hybrids?
Austin Reed RMC Topper tracks are woodies
I have a season pass for this place I'm going in 4 weeks
What were the designers on when they designed this??
Alan Schilke. He was the one who designs these rides. He also made Tennessee Tornado at Dollywood and X² at Magic Mountain.
That explains somethings...so either Moonshine or LSD
Alan schilke works with RMC?
If you sit far in the back right seat you can feel everything the front you could just see the drop and stuff
im going to ride this tommorrow and i am so excited
I went on this ride and it was awesome 👍👌💖
is it still running nylon wheels
I dont remember i haven't went on that ride for like months
This is exactly like the iron rattler in San Antonio
Hey Coaster Force! Do you mind making a split screen video on this please! It would be really appreciated, Thanks!
sarvian1 .SCC
George Rucker ???
reminds me of twisted Colossus so much!
I’m going to six flags on Sunday and I freaking love roller coasters but last time I went to six flags the line was to long for the Joker so I’m just wondering on a scale from 1-10 how scary is it.
what was the cost to build ? if ever i own a theme park i want one of these in it
thanks ill get saving then
Hilariously, there is a specific exemption carved out in Massachusetts's labor laws allowing SFNE to not pay overtime.

oh i seen the uploads of their woody at LC looks a great coaster
No, one's in Connecticut and the other's in Ohio. (Just kidding! I knew you meant the slang word for "awesome".)
***** I'm female, but thank you. I'm a frequent comedian in real life.
Rode this today about a 1 in a half two hour wait,but it was worth it! 😁
What day of the week was this.
This was my first ride ever lmao
I'm going to ride this tomorrow ;)
take me with you
sorry guy, IT WAS SO FUN XD
p.s. you should ride this!
is that ur favorite?
yeah, of course!
but I like Medusa better than this.
nicee anyone here in 2020??!!! loving miss goin on this for first time
Can't wait to ride tomorrow!
If you don't own a season pass, you need to buy a Joker shirt if you wanna ride it.
You HAVE to?
SpeedBird6780 I bought a season pass shortly after the ride was announced.
kit kat Yeah, otherwise you'll need to wait until Sunday.
+Coaster Jaiden wait its open today to season pass holder?? im gonna ride it!!
it is similar to the iron rattler at six flags fiesta texas
yep
How did you guys get permission to film? I was there and they wouldn't let me.
:(
Media day.
I was at the earlier media day, and the email invitation said absolutely no mounted POVs, yet I saw people being allowed to do so, but other people including me were not. I saw them let someone suction cup mount a GoPro to it, but I wasn't allowed to, even though I had the same exact thing.
+Coaster Jaiden The rider cam was provided by the park with a camera mounted to the train
the best part of the ride is at 1:41 best airtime ever
the joker ride is my favorite just road it today
I'm so riding this when I go here this summer
Before I rode this the ride before us stopped at the dropping point and I was scared and right before we dropped I closed my eyes the entire time so I had no idea what has happening
Kinda looks similar to Wildfire at Kalmarden in Sweden
it's just twisted colossus without the second track
The drop is literally straight down vertical drop
this is super fun!!!
I'm so sad. I have been on every single roller coaster here except for joker and daredevil only because I haven't been to six flags in over a year D: I will be going this summer though so I'm hoping I can ride joker it looks so much fun!!!
JOKE THIS RIDE JUST THAT FUN SIX FLAGS DISCOVERY KINGDOM !!
A question for everyone:
The Joker or Wicked Cyclone
In terms of force... unfortunately probably Wicked Cyclone, but The Joker does have the fun little prelift so... I feel that Wicked Cyclone is still my #1 RMC, but that The Joker is a VERY close second... 💚💜☺🎢
+Coaster Labs
1. Wicked Cyclone
2. Joker
3. Twisted Colossus
Its the truth, don't deny it
joker all day bro. joker is so fun
Evil Coffee twisted colossus is way more intense then both of those.
CoasterGlitch jokerr
Ah make a one about the newest ride at six flags discovery kingdom Wonder Woman Lasso of Truth
Can you film at great adventure
We live in a roller coaster
That's just like the wicked cyclone at SixFlags New England
i went on this yesterday it was fun and scary at the same time lmao
whats the speed
52 mph
53
amazing!
im scared this ride will fall because on that first drop the ride shakes
RAIDERS fan4life Thats was on roar. this is the new improved coaster that is way different than roar
I went on this ride
Almost passed out😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳
I've been on this ride before
This ride reminds me of ghost rider from knotts berry farm
michelle a This is a RMC Hybrid, Ghostrider is a (partly) GCI woodie
I'm going today on this pray for me 🙏🙏🙏
I can relate to this everyone talks at the end
I went on that same place it was amazing
They should re theme vertical velocity to batman that would fit in the area
Most people think the same thing. I mean, all signs point to that...
Thats just gonna give them an excuse to call it a new ride
They should do flash to keep the same colors.
Zombieface Coasters eh... I know it would fit, but I feel that since it's less than 50 feet from the the Joker, Batman would be a better fit... I mean, the track use to be yellow and the supports were blue...
As if they care about theme anyway
RIP roar
i went on this ride it was awesome
It was so fun
