Rode this for the first time yesterday and the video does it no justice, the launch takes you 0-130mph in twice the speed of a Ferrari and it’s probably literally the closest thing you’ll ever feel to a rocket ship in your life, the ride is short but very worth it. Absolutely terrifying and amazing.

I went on for the first time yesterday first row all i can say is that the anticipation is worse the g force is crazy the speed that is needed to go up is more extreme than the drop itself. You can't feel the drop. It only last a few seconds

[Allisonnnnnx]

reminds me of that one spongebob episode where spongebob and patrick were scared to go on that one roller coaster. LOL

[TheSubwayMustango]

You don't even feel the drop tbh lmao. I feel the launch way more

[Cocohontas]

The drop isn’t the hard part. It’s the launch that gets you 😂
Ppl underestimate that

[fishtitan]

Nothing can describe how it felt going on this ride. And i did it on my bday which was today. The most intense part is going up and you dont feel the drop but the launch is isane

My dad always rode this ride and had no expression. He was never scared of any roller coaster. I bet in Heaven, he’s riding all these roller coasters 🎢

All aboard the Nope train to Fuckthatville

The adrenaline I feel just from watching, it makes my breathe audibly shaky. Can't imagine how amazing that must be irl!

I rode this over 10 years ago, and it took my breath away when I got to the top. I actually started praying because it was so scary, haha. Unfortunately, it ruined all other roller coasters for me. I don't get a thrill like I used to before riding Kingda Ka, because nothing has compared to it.

I'd have to say that the front row is the best on this ride. El Toro is best in the back.

[haeleigh]

this ride is INSANE. i went on it with some kids from my school last year and the force from the launch was so extreme, the elastic in my hair was ripped out.

[wingnutistaken]

THis ride is like Viagra, you wait 3 hours for a 30 second ride

[pepsidiet]

by far the 20 most amazing seconds of my life !! we were sitting fully forward, the speed is really powerful, you stay nailed to your seat, the eyes flow alone, in short, this roller coaster is really sensational

[tyleak]

I went on it today, it felt like my soul left my body once it launched. This ride is not for the weak I swear😭

[marzbarj]

this would be at the top of my nope list

[milenamedina]

Ok so I went for the first time yesterday and it is so much fun. I was so scared... when people say you dont feel the drop is true. You don't get butterflies. And when it launches that is the "worst" part. And I say "worst" because is not even bad is super cool. It goes really fast and everything looks so pretty at the top. I definitely recommend this ride, it is mt favorite one out of all. You don't even get .

Just rode this bad boy 3 times in one day in NJ. Started the day off riding it twice in a row and ended the day with it. At the end I was DONE. It is an insane ride. Coming down feels like it's gonna fly off the rails into the theme park. 😳

The scariest part of this ride is...

I live in the Uk and my sistet lives in NY.
I went on this ride about 16 years ago.
I have to say this is still my best ride on a rollercoaster hands down.
My son is in NY at this moment in time. I asked my sister to take him there.
He went on it yesterday. He said Dad. That ride is mad ha ha ha. He loved it.
If you get the chance then do it.
