I had never been on a looping coaster and choose this as my first one. There was no line so we ended up on it 3 times. As someone scared of height I kept my eyes open the whole time and I had a blast. 100000% recommended.
@@melissa2cool4yu I really enjoyed it. If you sit near the back you feel the loop, if you sit near the front you feel the pressure so I like to sit in the middle closer to the front :)
@@LolbeeSFM no I'm not saying lies to that I said lies because you said that if the coaster doesn't have head banging then something is wrong and besides dragon fire is the smoothest coaster
I just went to canadas wonderland today and this was the rollercoaster I rode, and also the first I've ever rode. I loved it. I went on it like 4 times.
It might be a bit scary the first few times, but overall it's a great ride! Its not tall at all (compared to leviathan and other roller coasters) and it only flips over like 3-4 times. It's a good starter ride if you want to face your fear of roller coaster/hights/drops! :)
FACT: Dragon Fyre is the only operating Arrow Looper to have corkscrews that turn to the left. Also it’s nice they turned it back to Fyre and not the generic Fire they had for decades.
Another fun fact is they built this ride with 3 trains, however they later realized they could only ever run 2 at a time, so the third was and still is used on the bat
I find this ride super fun especially in the back. I found this ride really smooth in the back surprisingly and even in the front. It may be a bit jerky but it isn't as rough as others like it :) One of the better Arrow Dynamics custom loopers out there
@@d-town7499 Yeah it does have that Arrow roughness but that's to be expected in that era of roller coasters. All steel coasters were hand bent at that time.
This rollercoaster is amazing!Actually,it’s the first rollercoaster that I’ve been on that has loops!I used to be so scared of the loops,but after I rode this ride,WOW,I had no fear of loops after that
This was my first time on a looping rollercoaster and it was the best went on it 5 times in a row and it has no line definitely one of my favorites rides 🎉❤
For me, this rollercoaster is a 5/5. I used to be very scared of rollercoasters but when I went to wonderland near the end of May I walked right in here. It was scary going up at first, because that’s pretty normal with rollercoasters. One con is that during the loops, my head flew forwards because I had forgot to put my head back, and the next day my neck was a little sore, but I’m not gonna blame that on the rollercoaster because it was kinda my fault. Over all, this was one of the best rollercoaster experiences I have ever had, and in the end I ended up really enjoying this. It’s now my go-to coaster at wonderland.
When I went to Canadas wonderland absolute scared of rollercoasters my sister and my dad were going on here (I was actually scared lol) I went on it and it was super fun later that day I went on it again, the funnest part is keeping your eyes open
This feels so weird to watch, I swear this is the only ever time I have seen an Arrow Corkscrew coaster with the corkscrews going to the left... every other one has them going to the right and it's giving me an existensial crisis
This was my first ever roller coaster at wonderland and my first ever roller coaster in general. I came here only two days after moving from Jamaica to Canada last year
Nice to see this Vekoma coaster turns to the left. We have since 1981 a simular coaster (recently rebuild) in the Efteling in Holland, called the Python. Almost the same, only it goes to the right. Also was my first ever coaster i've been on, still love it today
This was my first actual coaster, I was all afraid, never went on a trilling ride. Went on this, had the time of my life, was an empty day, I went on this would my cousins at least 12-13 times in a row.
I remember as a young teenager my dad took me here with my step sisters, all 5 of us. There was some event happening at the nearby pirate ship in a pond, and it was late at night before close. IIRC there was a fireworks even planned. Well myself and the 2 oldest all left to go ride this as it was basically right beside where we were standing and had nobody there. The guy running it let us take the front 3 seats and just kept it going until some other kids noticed, there was like 10 of us going around non stop the entire fireworks duration, like 10 minutes straight. Eventually after the fireworks ended people started coming up the line again so we had to get off haha, great memories. the park closed like an hour later and I remember passing out in the car ride home just grinning from ear to ear.
as someone terrified of loops i finally had the courage to go on tonight (its haunt so no lines) and this was def a good intro to loops. First time i had my eyes closed, immediately went back and kept them open
I rather Enjoyed this Ride on Victoria Day in 2019. It's a classic but a fun one as long as they take good care of this very Special ride. I had my eyes open for the last 2 corkscrew loops and it looked neat and different.
10 yrs old at the time and my friends jokingly told me this was a kids coaster. Obviously they were wrong, but I really enjoyed it! Dragon Fyre gave me my first roller coaster experience AND my first upside down roller coaster.
This is the first upside down roller coaster I ever went on, and my Dad said if we were gonna do it, we were going big and sat me right there in front.
You can tell it has gotten tougher over the years but there is almost always no line and it is fun the whole time. When I rode it, the train was going faster than usual and the trims didn’t do much so it was more intense than usual
Back in the 90s my friend and I used to get off run back around and ride again as the line was the shortest. I must of rode this coaster at least 40 times. Very fond memories. Crazy how much has changed around it. When I first went on the water flip ride wasn't even there yet and the whole surrounding area was empty of houses/businesses.
First time i went on this I was so tense then after the double corkscrew I was so hype, I thought it was over then i let go to stretch for some reason. AND THEN IT DROPPED AND I STARTED SCREAMING. My friend started dying laughing. One of my best memories on a ride.
wonderland needs more mid-scary rides like this. after this one, backlot stunt coaster, the fly, vortex and a couple others you're either going a kilometer an hour or upside down 4 times and down a 400ft drop
This coaster was the one that made me not scared of roller coasters. Rode it yesterday, damn was it good. A bit rough near the corkscrews, but otherwise amazing. Previously, my visit's goal was Thunder Run. Now, on my next visit, I'm hoping to get a ride on Leviathan.
This was my first ride here, I only did it cause my dad made me do it. I went on it cause my dad said it was fine, and that was my first roller coaster drop ever 😊
To think, this could very well have been the tallest ride at the park at one point.........now it's as tall as Leviathan's break run. Way to one up this ride Leviathan.XD
It's a head banger.. it could definitely use newer better designed restraints.. or even better than that.. rip it out and put something better In.. lol
Honestly, I ride this one first every time I go to wonderland. It's as smooth as it's ever been and I've never had head banging on it, it's a great ride I'd honestly be sad if they removed it
This ride it normally the first stop of the day, that Corkscrew will either make your day or ruin your day, I got stuck on this ride one time, it didn't boost around the last turn

Exact same with me
I went on this about 3 years ago and it destroyed my neck
same -- good times !!!!!
I’m scared of loops should I go on this one?
@@melissa2cool4yu I really enjoyed it. If you sit near the back you feel the loop, if you sit near the front you feel the pressure so I like to sit in the middle closer to the front :)
This ride is extremely underrated, those 2 loops and the drop are amazing, especially in the back.
Finally someone gets it
I remember sitting in this thinking I was gonna die
That is true but you bang your head a lot
@@LolbeeSFM lies
@@LolbeeSFM no I'm not saying lies to that I said lies because you said that if the coaster doesn't have head banging then something is wrong and besides dragon fire is the smoothest coaster
First “real” roller coaster I ever rode. Still just as good 10 years later.
This coaster is as old as I am
I just went to canadas wonderland today and this was the rollercoaster I rode, and also the first I've ever rode. I loved it. I went on it like 4 times.
This was also the first one I rode
After that I rode leviathan 💀
This ride got me over my fear of looping coasters. It’s a short ride with a short line. I rode it 6 times in a row! So much fun.
I started riding this ride since I was 9 and I love it! This was also my first roller coaster with loops and flips. I definitely recommend this ride!
Is it good for me? Im scared of drops but I wanna get over my fear? Is this a scary ride?
It might be a bit scary the first few times, but overall it's a great ride! Its not tall at all (compared to leviathan and other roller coasters) and it only flips over like 3-4 times. It's a good starter ride if you want to face your fear of roller coaster/hights/drops! :)
The highest point on this coaster is the same height as Leviathan’s brake run!
well technically the highest point on 90% of rides is the break run because the top of the chairlift is a break run
Whats a brake Run😭
@@emelyncerda3061 it’s a spot meant to slow down the roller coaster when the ride is almost over
@@TheTestamentofTez not necessarily
@@TheTestamentofTez those are usually used by trim brakes
FACT: Dragon Fyre is the only operating Arrow Looper to have corkscrews that turn to the left. Also it’s nice they turned it back to Fyre and not the generic Fire they had for decades.
I wish they never tear this thing down because then we won’t have an Arrow custom looper that has a counter-clockwise corkscrew
It's not the only one to be built with counter-clockwise corkscrews. Drachen Fire also had them during the years when it operated.
Another fun fact is they built this ride with 3 trains, however they later realized they could only ever run 2 at a time, so the third was and still is used on the bat
@@----5247 I thought it was Leviathan
I have been on other coasters including another with a corkscrew to the left
I love how Leviathan’s brake run is as tall as this.
It's taller! Lol..
Eccentric Gamer it’s the two inch drop
Leviathan is taller
Yeah lol
Ikr
I love how this was the first coaster for so many people. It was my first true coaster, and I've loved them since.
First looper I ever went on in the summer of 91. This coaster will always hold a special place for me.

My most recent ride on dragon fyre was in the middle and its was rough after the first 2 loops due to bad arrow transisions
@@d-town7499 Yeah it does have that Arrow roughness but that's to be expected in that era of roller coasters. All steel coasters were hand bent at that time.
since 1985 Dragon fyre is my first and last coaster when I got o Wonderland. I love this ride it was my first looping coaster I ever did.
Watching this makes me miss canadas wonderland even more
This was the first roller coaster where I kept my hand in the air the whole time
You can't keep your arms up on dragonfyre
This ride is the Best to start the Day because its smooth and it isn't scary at all
This was my first coaster with loops and my first coaster where I didn’t close my eyes on the drop😂
It was also my first looping coaster
Wilko Weers_861 omg same this was my first looping coaster and I got so scared now I’m riding leviathan sleeping
It was also my first coaster that goes upside down
Mine to! And I used to black out on the 2nd loop.
Wilko Weers_861 this will hope fully be my first with a loop
Dragon fire is so underrated
This was the first “big” roller coaster ive been in and it scared me a lot but it was pretty fun with all the loops ngl
I went there yesterday, my mom said there were no loops until I saw it for my self the hard way lmao
Lol that’s literally exactly the same thing that happened to my friend before
This rollercoaster is amazing!Actually,it’s the first rollercoaster that I’ve been on that has loops!I used to be so scared of the loops,but after I rode this ride,WOW,I had no fear of loops after that

Cool fact: This ride use to have three trains. That's why there is that brake run after the corkscrews. The third train was used for the Bat.
It’s so cool to see it!

Classic arrow loopers. Gotta love em
Love this ride its so fun the loops are amazing too
One of my fondest memories of Wonderland is getting to the park and hearing this ride from the parking lot.

Dragon Fyre is one of my favourite roller coasters at Canada's wonderland.
Yay here it is! Dragon Fyre seems pretty fun. Now if only Kings Island would actually make a Vortex POV...
Fun fact, I’m here while watching this

As someone who has been on this ride PLENTY of times, it’s a lot faster and the drop is deeper. Overall I luv it sm 💗
One of the best rides at Canada Wonderland and for its age it's so smooth. It's super underrated so I can go 3 to 4 times an hour.
I LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE THIS ONE SO MUCH
10 yrs old at the time and my friends jokingly told me this was a kids coaster. Obviously they were wrong, but I really enjoyed it! Dragon Fyre gave me my first roller coaster experience AND my first upside down roller coaster.
Dragon fyre: 8/10. Amazing ride. Lots of inversions but the only thing keeping it from a 9/10 is the constant head banging
I love that ride
My first " big" coaster when I was a kid, followed by vortex. Never looked back
Neat. One of my fav rides.
Levi and dragonfire are in the perfect spot😀😀😀
My first big kid coaster. Rode it opening year for first time.

This was my first real roller coster , and i was screaming for help the entire time, because the loops felt so wierd!
Great ride, ears hurt for about a week after 1:06
It is torture at 1:06
@@jacobr05 Nah you gotta push your head against one side of the restraints and your good.

i was really scared when i tried this, it turned out to be 100000000% fun! the loops are very nice. ❤️
Love that double corkscrew.
if this ride didn’t bust my eardrums this would’ve been my favourite ride
The twin coaster stands in Heide Park, Germany
It’s one of the smoothest looping coasters in the world so if you go to Canada’s Wonderland make sure to go on dragon fyre if it’s not broken down
far from it actually but one of the better ones in the country
dragon fyre is anything but smooth tho
My first ever looping coaster

The train getting off the chain
No it was actually like a strange tone in the background
@@matteorizzi8233that's the train getting off the lift lol
I like the fact that it's not that tall. Those roller coasters I love.
this one is my favourite ride!
This was my first ride here, I only did it cause my dad made me do it. I went on it cause my dad said it was fine, and that was my first roller coaster drop ever 😊
so when are you going on leviathan
Does this coaster have the weird stomach feeling? I like rollercoasters but I’m always haunted by that feeling
Only for like 1 sec at the drop part
To think, this could very well have been the tallest ride at the park at one point.........now it's as tall as Leviathan's break run. Way to one up this ride Leviathan.XD
Fun Fact: It's the mirrored version of Big Loop at Heide-Park (germany)
This may sound controversial but this is my favourite coaster
I completely disagree with you but I still respect your opinion.
Same
Does this coaster need the comfortable restraints found on the Blue Hawk at Six Flags Over Georgia, or is it fine just the way it is?
It's a head banger.. it could definitely use newer better designed restraints.. or even better than that.. rip it out and put something better In.. lol
It’s the old school ones. But this coaster is even older than Blue Hawk. But I find it a fun ride if you keep your head back.
Honestly, I ride this one first every time I go to wonderland. It's as smooth as it's ever been and I've never had head banging on it, it's a great ride I'd honestly be sad if they removed it
my mom used to go on this when she was a kid with her friends. she said she’s disappointed u see the Leviathan as you’re going up. 😂
When you reach the top you're just staring straight at leviathan's brake run.
Would you recommend this for someone who doesn’t like tall roller coasters? I’m trying to find some new ones that are more short
Does this ride have over the shoulder restraints or a lap bar I don’t trust rides that go upside down if the aren’t over the shoulder
This is weird I just went on dragon fyre yesterday for the first time...
BaconBHawks is it bad?
Oh gosh no it was very fun
The drop isn’t even scary
BaconBHawks what about the loops
Canyon Blaster at Adventuredome in Las Vegas looks extremely similar to this
I find it weird how the camera does not shatter by how much it shakes
This was the first ever looping roller coaster I went on.
I've been on leviathan and the other big coasters but im scared to go on this one cause it goes upside down
Leviathans brake run is bigger than dragon fyres drop hill
Most underrated coaster here
This is the first Rollercoaster I ever rode. My dad forced me on, and I never looked back I was crying and everything and laughing after.
great ride incredible to see thats it really only 1 minute and a bit in real life though cause ive waited 2 hours or more to get on sometimes
HUH? i didn't think this coaster was still open and operating?
Those corkscrews broke my neck lol
I was just at Canadas wonderland today and I went on the dragon fyre and it was the same tracks as the behemoth and leviathan and the Yukon stricker
Honestly not ashamed to say that's the first "drophill" Ride I've done at wonderland
Canada's wonderland I have a question can you guys build a hybrid ????
this ride gave people more CTE than any other ride ever.
This ride it normally the first stop of the day, that Corkscrew will either make your day or ruin your day, I got stuck on this ride one time, it didn't boost around the last turn
Is this coaster new because I’ve been to wonderland 50 times and have never heard or seen this ride ever
It was made in 1981 I believe.
@@Jjjjjjjames HOW😭😭 I’ve never even heard or seen this in my life
What is the song that is used on this ride. Is the name automatic fire
The straight track after the drop is… odd. Love an old s arrow looper though ❤
Ah, the unmistakable sound of an Arrow lift hill 😊
Always the first roller coaster I ride
felt like corkscrew
