The last time I saw this ride was nearly 20 years ago when I was 8 or 9. I didn't go on it but one of my older friends did and I remember it being a lot different. I haven't been to SA in nearly 15 years and I really miss it, its a pity that there's so much crime in that beautiful country otherwise I would have visited it plenty of times already. I was born there but my parents are European so we went back to Europe in 2006.
I rode this while going on a short excursion with my college and... man, let me tell you something about this ride. This was the first ride I did that day, and afterwards, no other ride could scare me as much, cause none of them could compare to this one. When it reached the top, and I had to wait for it go down, I was already feeling nervous, but I underestimated how scary it would be. When it started to go down, I thought it would go down but move forward in a way, but, NO, it went straight down. When I felt my shoulders going down, my heart stopped and I knew I was finished. I felt a fear unlike anything I felt before, not even in my wildest imagination could I picture something so scary. I held on for dear life, it was moving so fast, I couldn't breathe for a moment. And the view, especially as it went through the tunnels, it felt like I was going back in time, like I was travelling to another dimension or different universe. This ride gave me an otherworldly experience, it's how scary it was. I never, ever, get excitement like this, so this experience was something else. I was shaking uncontrollably after it was over, I couldn't believe it. Didn't even understand how I was still alive. After this (as I mentioned this ride was the first one), I would go on to ride the Jozi Express, Anaconda, the High Flying Maverick, and the Storm chaser. All of them were scary, but none of them, made me feel what this ride made me feel. It was the closest I'd ever felt to an out of body experience and the closest I've ever been to feeling like I would die. I'd love to visit Gold Reef City again, it was the best attraction I've visited so far, and as much as this Tower of Terror scared me, I am hungry for the next time I can ride it. And yes, watching that fall from this video still makes me nervous and it makes my heart beat faster.
on other rides I'll shout and laugh and what not. on this ride I don't make a sound.I rode this today and I also rode it 8 years ago. It is an insane ride. it really needs worldwide recognition as a crazy must-do ride. the thing about it is as you the fall starts it feels like you are going to crash into the steel structure before it dips and then it's just a tunnel vision blur. literally feels like life flashing before your eyes. A lot of people don't scream because it's almost like your brain cant process that you are freefalling to what seems like your death. at least that's how it feels to me. It's a very quick ride because I don't think they could make it any longer without making it dangerous. Lol
@@flighted2513 I’ve pulled 7.5G with no suit it’s not like you instantly black out without one. It’s just uncomfortable. 6.3G is a lot but it’s not like 9G even with a suit, the sensation is the exact same, just less likely to pass out
@@maincoasters bro why did you leave my lemons on the floor last night! You got them all ruined!!! I still ate them though (cockroaches add more flavor)
6.3 G forces. Currently the highest of any coaster in the world. There was once a coaster that exerted 12 G forces, but it is no longer here. That much G force would be illegal today.
@@blacklisted351 It was definitely them, at least originally. The track style is too similar, and basically nobody spends the money to knock off the B&M track, why on this coaster? In other words the whole denial story is really that, the chances of anyone else bothering to build a wierd ride like this (before or after the elevator lift) with this style track is ridiculously slim.
My dad offered me R80 once when I was a kid to go on this ride with him and my sister hahah I didn't take the money. Also noticed the sound of The Anaconda. We brought my friend with once and he was fearless and I didn't want to look like a sissy so I actually rode that one a couple times, it's the best ride there imo.
Wasn't this ride more intense when it was first built? I saw a video about this coaster that talked about how it was more intense when it first opened, but was too dangerous so they had to bring the intensity down to a safer level by adding trim brakes to the drop.
I just checked on google, this ride cause 6.3 G forces, that's almost as much as a fighter pilot experiences, this ride is CRAZY
Not anymore unfortunately, they modified it so that it doesn’t pull as many Gs

I cant believe how calm they are in this video 😳 we were screaming our lungs out because of this thing I'm never going back✌
Same here 😂😂😂
I never never never never never never never go on the roller coaster again
this is childs work
The wooden or metal cracking and squeaking sounds along with the horror music goes so perfect with this trip!
The worst part is when you're at the top and waiting to fall.
Yeh
well that’s the best part arguably
No the worst part is when you experience 6.3 Gs

You guys were not scared enough 🤣😂🤣 this ride is beyond overwhelming 🤣😂💔💔
The focus of this ride was the gforce, not the track layout itself. A one trick pony.
Tylor Whitt yeah
At least it’s a good trick
no way its that much g
@@adamgoodman5171 It's the drop. If it wasn't such a sudden drop then it wouldn't be as intense of G force.
@@adamgoodman5171 according to rcdb, 6.3gs
Anytime I see a rollercoaster that has to connect they make me so nervous
What do though mean connect
Cool Bean like the tilt track the lines up into place to release the coaster
ItsNando20 it didn’t tilt tho
I mean the ones where the track comes off and they need to be aligned perfectly
ItsNando20, that was a elevator lift that wasn’t a tilt coaster like gravity max
That drop made me lose my soul and dignity, no thank you! 😩☠️
Agh I go to gold reef city soon with my friends and my friend dared us to come on that ride 😭😭

Me too😂😂😂 and anaconda is starting to look like child's play
this ride was boring
Yeah no, i had a panic attack going on the andaconda aneva nna😭😭😭😭you cna even hear it in the background

Was it fun??😬😂

The moment it goes up, that's the exact time you get to talk to your ancestors as they ask you,
Ancestors: o phaphisa ke eng??
You: 🙄
🤣
BRO WHEN IT STOPS AT THE TOP I WANNA CRY
Greetings! May I use this footage in a video I'm making involving this ride's history? I will give your channel full credit.
It used to be different about 15 years ago. The lift system was installed to replace a vertical track going up.
The last time I saw this ride was nearly 20 years ago when I was 8 or 9. I didn't go on it but one of my older friends did and I remember it being a lot different. I haven't been to SA in nearly 15 years and I really miss it, its a pity that there's so much crime in that beautiful country otherwise I would have visited it plenty of times already. I was born there but my parents are European so we went back to Europe in 2006.
Yes if i remember correctly you faced the ground when it was going up. That was a lot scarier.
tower of terror has this thing of killing its victims for 3 seconds then u come back to life, that silence where u go down is the death scene
That's terrifyingly hilarious

I went on this when it first launced. It only had a lap bar and old school handle bars to brace against. Terrifying! But awesome!!😁
I rode this back then. Almost shit my pants.

also the fact that the g-force rounds up to 6.3 is wild
That does no look scary at all in tv but when you go on it it is scary
This ride actually has the highest g force of any roller coaster in the world peaking at 6.3 g
The crazy version of oblivion at Alton towers haha
Yeah and this has like 1 extra g
1.5 extra g’s to be precise
It looks like the made in North Korea version of oblivion.
Matt N this is in South Africa but ok
Nah, reminds me more of Baron.
The nervous laughter is killing me
Everyone is so silent because most of them probably died of fear😅
This is a pretty cool roller coaster
I've once experienced it. It wasn't as scary as I thought it would be
y'all the worst part isn't even the fall. it's the waiting for the fall to happen and the few seconds before the drop 😭
Tried it tdy and I must say, I regretted going on the ride when I reached the top😭😭😭😭😭🙏
I respect you for even getting on this ride with the g's it pulls
1:10 - The amount of G-Force is similar to that of a real fighter plane making turns... 6.3 G's for this roller coaster.
Yep. A fighter pilot would have no problem with this. I’ve seen pilots talk through 9 Gs.
@@madelinegarber7860 That's with a g-suit. Now do it without any suit

You can pass out
@@flighted2513the US navy blue angels do that everyday without a g suit
Went on this thing when I was 10 years old. NEVER AGAIN 😭💀😭
Lol I once blacked out during the drop and gained consciousness during the curve
That’s called GLOC. G force induced loss of consciousness. Not dangerous but disconcerting.
So people really do black out 🤣🤣
The g forces, holy crap
These rides are great
I had nightmares after taking this ride yoh 🙆🏾♂️🙆🏾♂️😱😱
im 12 and I absolutely love this ride
Fun fact this is the highest g force roller coaster and it pulls 6.5 gs
Fun fact you’re completely incorrect.
@@jusrome2037 6.3 technically
Great video. Thanks for posting this. Have a nice day.
My sister forced me to go on this...I didn't talk to her for the entire day afterwards😢
Just wanted to see what happens inside the dark place coz the time I went there my eyes were closed the whole time, very scary lol
Before entering the tunnel it felt like I was entering the gates of hell ,but it was really fun I’d do it again
My heart was racing just watching
it look like you can hit your head on that
Chantz Ricketts you can hit your head on anything. You sound pretty dumb

How?
@@onthatilemantshane2387 guess they didn't make it...
💐😔
Just tense up all your muscles before the drop and it should help from blacking out
Thx for the tip I'm gonna ride it tmr!!
All fear I had was gone after I made it out of this ride alive 6 years ago.
My afrikaans teacher broke her jaw when she was on this ride...... Yikes💀🙀🥴
I'd be ticked if I waited in line for a ride that short.
Just watching this video gave me anxiety 😂😂😂
Most people think that sound when it goes quite is the wind, experts know it's the anaconda 😂❤
Supeeeer...

San Antonio, Texas - Tower of Terror - October 29, 2015
That’s it?
This is the highest G force on a coaster in the world
I have been there
Well yeah the video is underwhelming. I've been on it and I'm a surprised to see how lame it is here. People left this ride crying
Sugarshaz what do you mean “that’s it?!” The monster has 6.3 gs and had the highest g force on a roller coaster.
Sugarshaz it very scary in real life😂
This video gave me a fright just the same as I climb it
You sneaky little *****, 🔥though
That was quick enough O:
I respect this one.
1:20 thrilling bit about to commence
i hurt my back when i rode this
I hurt my back on the anaconda
I'm either cold or scared cause I'm goon to GRC tomorrow and my mom said we are never going again if you go on it. FIRST TIME THE CHARM EH? 🤗
No ways, I always wanted this rid, but then, this is what I see.😭
WOW! That was short.
I'm not even riding it but my heart is racing and I've never ride it before and in not planning to😂😂😂
Went there today it's crazy what a drop rode it twice

I miss Ratanga Junction!!!
When i saw the ride was like nope my life is fun

I’m afraid of that roller coaster

This was a real starter for me cause tomorrow I will be going to gold reef city big rides for the first time and I’m using vr
I hurt my back today on this ride.

This thing is apparently so scary it holds a world record
it's the world record for most g force on a roller coaster
Is the gopro mounted inside your eye? Im a bit confused
Ok ✅ I LOVE AND I CANE SAY OMG 😱 THIS SO DANGRUS!!!!!
nah that looks fun
I was too scared to go on this ride but is it as scary as the Anaconda
