This roller coaster is the first roller coaster that I went on that ever had loops. So because of this, I'm able to go on other loop roller coasters. It'll always be my favorite roller coaster. :D
LOVE this ride i was SUPER scared to go on it ; but after i looked at all the other SUUPER scary rides, i was able to & now, i can go on any ride without fear thanks to medusa(:
i was mad i didnt get to go on this when i went cause my sister wanted to stay and watch that free concert of ashanti and day 26 so i didnt want to go by myself. next time i'll be sure to go on.
Medusa at SFGA came first in the 90s. Scream came out in 2003. They're both good rides it's just that Scream is a bit taller and is a mirror of Medusa. Plus it doesn't have a theme.

Hello weatherboy286: Thank You For Your Comment....As Of Today (As Long As El Toro Is Open ) I Think Every Other Ride will Be Easy To Go Right On & Off Of.
Hello lorderik237 : Thank You For Your Question :) I KNow That Back In The 1980's Six Flags Great Adventure Did Reverse The Left Side Cars On Rolling Thunder (Back When The Ride Was Smooth) LOL That Was GREAT!!!!!!!!
So I wonder how the upcoming makeover will change the experience... So far I've seen blue track, pyrotechnic effects, and new theming. We'll see once it opens :)
they didn't take it out, they painted it purple, and just added effects, but it's still the same height and length, and coaster path design is still the same. They didn't knock anything down.
Hello kwells1994: Thank You For Your Comment/Question's :) First...Which Upside Down Coaster I Would Say To Go On First Would Be This One (Medusa)....Next Have I Ever Lost My Camera On Any Rollercoaster's I Never Have Lost My Camera At All,,,,,The Key To That Is To Go On The Coaster First Before I Record The Ride So I Know What To Expect. :)
Hello Nick12295: Thank You For Your Comment :) My Wife & I Have Not Been Up North In A While,,,But Hopefully We Will Be There During Memorial Week & Go Back To Great Adventure...One Coaster I Never Have Recorded Yet Was Superman. :)
Hello Sithmaster619: Thank You For Your Comment/Question :) How Do I Grip The Camera?? Once I'm Locked In, I Then Lock My Arms In The "L" Position,Sit Back And Enjoy/Videotape The Ride :). What Camera Do I Use??? Sony Camera's Are The Best :)
Hello superkillerbunny: Thank You For Your Comment/Question : ) How? The Key Is To Arrive At The Park Before They Open....Go To All The Long Line Rides First....Which Is Kingda Ka ...El Toro...Then You Can Go On Any Other Ride Without Waiting Long : )
Hello inoucit123: Thank You For Your Comment :) This Ride (If I Was To Compare It With Other Rides That I Have Been On) It Reminds Me A Little Bit Of The Hulk.
Not at all! I'm trying to get my brother on this ride who shares the same phobia. I always would recommend this ride for any first timer. It's perfect.
Hello numero100:Thank You For Your Comment,My Wife Also Likes Medusa....Me..I Still love Speed & Kingda Ka But Kingda Ka Is Too Short Of A Ride,I Wish They Would Have Made It A Longer Track On The Return ..Like Some Camel Back's On Nitro Which Is Another Favorite :)
It depends on if you get a gold flash pass or a regular flash pass and then it depends on how many people you pay to have on the flash pass, I went yesterday with 3 friends and a gold flash pass cost $204 for all 4 of us but I have to tell you it was worth it we went on every ride before it got dark, very fun.
Hello skihero45: Thank You For Your Comment/Question :) I Really Couldn't Tell You Because Everyone Has Different Opinion's.....Plus There Are Differences...Kingda Ka Has Speed :) (With No Loop's) And This Ride Medusa Has Loop's But Not As Fast As Kingda Ka......I Actually Like Them Both.
Hello Iheartyoulots9494: Thank You For Your Comment :) One Day You Just Have To Have The Guts & Decide To Go On The Front Of Every Coaster You Ride,,,,,There Is A Big Difference Between The Front & The Middle ,,Especially When You Can See Everythinhg In The Front :)
Hello JoInChains: Thank You For Your Comment :) I Definately Agree With Your Order Of The Top 3,When My Wife & I Use To Go,That Was The Exact Order,Especially When SFGA Has That HAbbit Of Closing Down Kingda Ka Later In The Day :(
Hello xontilion: Thank You For Your Comment :) About Kingda Ka....It Use To Be My Favorite...Until It Broke A Record (To Me)I Call The Record "More Day's Closed Than Opened For A Record Breaking Coaster :(..It Came To A Point Where My Wife & I Didn't Even Bother Going There First,You Still Waited 1 Hour B4 They Tesyed It.
I never have been on the original Medusa. Eventhough I went on the Bizzaro Version last week. The Bizzaro version is obvisouly better eventhough its the same track layout
Hello guitargirl012: Thank You For Your Comment/Question :) Yes,(1) You Have To Be In A Positive Thinking Mode (Don't Think That You Are Going To Drop Your Camera).(2)Buy A Strap That Will Just Fit Around Your Wrist (Or) Do Like I Did ,,Measure The Length & Sew The Strap Good So Just Incase You Accidentally Drop Your Camera,,,,It Will Still Be On Your Wrist.(So Far, I Never Ever Dropped My Camera) (Yet,Knock On Wood) LOL
Hello sixflagslover22: Thank You For Your Comment/Question :) How Much??? To Tell You The Truth,I Really Don't Know,,,My wife & I ALWAYS Get To The Park BEFORE They Open,,That Away We Can Just Go On ALL The Main /Big Lines First,I Refuse To Pay SFGA Anymore Money They Make Enough As It Is. SFGA Needs To Get A Better System Like They HAve In Islands Of Adventure & Disney (For Free) You Swipe Your Pass/Ticket & Receive A Ticket For A Later Time & You Don't Pay Anything At All :)
Hello xxjessicahlynnxx: Thank You For Your Comment/Question :) My Favorite?? There's A Four Way Tie For Me LOL (1) Kingda Ka (2) El Toro (3) Nitro & (4) Vortex :)
Well the only thing I could compare dark night to is skull mountain, both are indoor... but the dark knight is more of atmosphere then the ride itself, the ride wasn't scary at all
Hello Isabella0x: Thank You For Your Comment:) P.S. Right Now You Say "No Way For Kingda Ka"....But Take My Advice,You Have To Try It Once **And Make It Your First Ride To Go On So You Will Not Wait 3-5 Hours On Line :)

Hello lecr4ck: Thank You For Your Question's :) I Keep On Getting E-Mail's From Great Adventure Telling Me That It's Going To Open May 14,2008.....At This Moment My Wife & I Are Still Down South.....But We Do Plan On Comming Up During Memorial Week (End Of May) & If We Go That Week My Wife & I Would Have To Go On Kingda Ka First (That Away If It Breaks Down During The Day I Won't Worry About Going On It)& Avoid The Looooong Line...P.S. Hopefully Kingda Ka Will Be Even Open That Day LOL
This roller coaster is the first roller coaster that I went on that ever had loops. So because of this, I'm able to go on other loop roller coasters. It'll always be my favorite roller coaster. :D
i went on the medusa 3 years ago and i still remeber it like it was yesterday good ride
They don't lie, this ride is smooth. Now I can go on ones that loop because of this ride.
i luv this ride sooo much, it was like my first big roller coaster ever
Medusa is still as smooth as ever, quite tame for a looper but that's what makes it fun hehe- being thrown for a big loop!
I love these videos because you get sort of a feel of the ride before you actually get on it.5 Starz. :)
One of my favorite rides. Smooth and exciting ride!!
they're reforming this ride, gonna be ready this spring!
This is my favorite ride in the park so far... I like the loopy design... You feel like nothing but air on it lol...
LOVE this ride
i was SUPER scared to go on it ; but after i looked at all the other SUUPER scary rides, i was able to
& now, i can go on any ride without fear thanks to medusa(:
They're running all three trains this season, which was REALLY good because the lines were moving quick yesterday afternoon.
one of the funnest rides now that they added the fire and everything
I like this ride. It might not be the fastese ride in the park but it does a good job off making me happy. Plus there is never a line like the others.
i love this ride. its so smooth and flowy :]
i was mad i didnt get to go on this when i went cause my sister wanted to stay and watch that free concert of ashanti and day 26 so i didnt want to go by myself. next time i'll be sure to go on.
this one was one of my favorites
Yes it was. This is a very, very fun ride. The line moves fairly quick and you'll get one smooth-ass ride lol. You feel like nothing on this beast
Medusa at SFGA came first in the 90s. Scream came out in 2003. They're both good rides it's just that Scream is a bit taller and is a mirror of Medusa. Plus it doesn't have a theme.
its bizzaro now, same awsome coaster with awsome effects
Not the scariest coaster in the park (that'd be El Toro!) but for sure the most fun! My all-time fave!
Medusa's a great ride, not really as scary as the batman ride, but way better then that new dark knight coaster thing...
WHAT A GREAT B&M FLOORLESS COASTER

Man I have to give you points, you'll go on any ride and get a great video of it too. Nice
Fantastic quality videos Sixlfgs15, I take my hat off to you Sir!

another good ride at six flags..good video..SIX FLAGS>>best amusement park ever
probably one of the best rides in that park.. next to el toro
i rode Scream, which is a mirror image of Medusa. Scream is at six flags magic mountain. its fun
they didn't take it out, they painted it purple, and just added effects, but it's still the same height and length, and coaster path design is still the same. They didn't knock anything down.

Nah, I think he meant as the coaster style. Batman is the inverted type, but Medusa is floorless with the track still below you hehe
Thank You For Your Comment :)
Not at all! I'm trying to get my brother on this ride who shares the same phobia. I always would recommend this ride for any first timer. It's perfect.
I can't wait till it's redone for 2009 like X2. I wonder what stuff they're gonna add.
ever notice, right after the cobra roll on this ride, it gets REALLY shanky? before the brake run and after the cobra roll. it gets, painful. yeah.
Hello numero100:Thank You For Your Comment,My Wife Also Likes Medusa....Me..I Still love Speed & Kingda Ka But Kingda Ka Is Too Short Of A Ride,I Wish They Would Have Made It A Longer Track On The Return ..Like Some Camel Back's On Nitro Which Is Another Favorite :)
ok thanks for the tips ill try it out next time i go there
Hello jakekel666: Thank You For Your Question :) This Ride Is Located At Six Flags Great Adventure Jackson New Jersey :)
Now I wanna ride a roller coaster. lol
this is the same as scream at Six Flags Magic Mountain
It depends on if you get a gold flash pass or a regular flash pass and then it depends on how many people you pay to have on the flash pass, I went yesterday with 3 friends and a gold flash pass cost $204 for all 4 of us but I have to tell you it was worth it we went on every ride before it got dark, very fun.
This ride was renamed Bizarro in 2009 with new effects.
love that ride
It's Bizarro now. Purple & Blue..
My fave coasters are nitro and batman.
Hello wizmaster188: Thank You For Your Comment/Question :) I Don't Think I Have Rode The Cat Chase Coaster :( Where Is It Located ????

This ride is so much fun but it bangs your head around so this guy must have had a good grip or something. It's much worse.
