    Anyone who has ever been on this knows you actually felt the drop! unlike Superman & Lex Luther ... I miss Freefall i wish SFMM never Removed it.

      That drop used to damn there knot your fucking stomach up. It’s not a drop ride out more terrifying than how Freefall used to be.......the good ole days.

      It was real. We used to put pennies on our knees and they would float for the first part of the drop

      As much as I miss FREE FALL, and I do very much so, to say LEX is Not a Real Drop, I'll Dissagree Strongly with Anybody.
      Both FREE FALL Experiences I feel had a similar feel of pure Adrenaline Rush and both give you that Dropping sensation in your stomach. The only difference, is that Lex Stops with magnetic breaks and your not on your back.
      I ❤️ Lex and am glad SFMM attatched it to the SUPERMAN Tower.
      What I miss about FREE Fall was the Trip up that Elevator shaft and the Drop of course.

    2024 and I just found out they got rid of this ride? Why!?!? It was one of the biggest stomach-churning drops in the park. 10x more than Superman.

    THe scary part was the sound... and the delay before the fall.. and knowing it was rusty and creaking. Modern rides feel too safe.

      Since it sounded like that when it was brand new too, I’m guessing it was an effect done purposely to disconcert guests.

    It’s a mix between Superman and lex Luther drop of doom it was a great tide

      ​@@JenGerardThank You for Your Service Operating this ride and keeping us safe during those years.
      I do miss it very much, although I Absolutely ❤️ LEX and can ride it Multiple times.
      I remember how Tall it looked before they Put Up RIDDLER all around it.

    How did they quiet the brakes? I remember when I was 10 years old, that thing was roaring at each drop and it was terrifying!

      Since it was already in the DC Universe area by Riddler Revenge, they could've themed it after another character......I don't know...maybe....."Mr. Freeze Freefall"?

    I assume it was more expensive then the simple gravity drops.

      Same here as well; I've only ridden it once, on my very first visit to the park in Deja Vu's opening day.
