This ride wud be so much better if it wasn't standing up. If don't sit in the first few rows, your legs will be burning so bad that it will ruin the rest of your day at the park.
i have 7 kids and 4 out of seven of them went on this ride the other three were too short but pippa carriagan blake ariel and i went on it pippa and carrigan are 14 blakes 12 ariels 11 we went on it a blast
I haven't been on this in forever.... I don't think I've been on it in 7 years. I'm not a big fan of it because it hurts your legs.... I forgot how cool this ride is. Next time I go I'm gonna tough it out and go on it again (:
when i was in line i was right at the gates about to get on and some kid threw up so i was everyone was waiting liek 15 minits longer for them to clean it up. then one thing was closed while they were letting it dry. but i like this ride. its kinda like the raptor(: it hurts crotch
worst coaster i've ever been on... soo bumpy your head bounces between the hard yellow padding, hurts your junk and feels like your legs are gonna explode from the blood rushing to them
IMO the designers went a bit close to the limits on this coaster...If a healthy 23 year old's legs look like a 75 year old with edema afterwards, then there is a problem. That said, no problems on the Raptor, Magnum, Millenium Force, Top Thrill coasters..and a month ago just went to Universal Orlando and rode the Hulk, Ripe Ride Rock It (90 deg. climb), and every other coaster there, and I was fine (even now at 31 I am still in shape)..The Mantis puts Gs on you like an Apollo 11 pilot
Rode this one a few times, and even at 23 (9 years ago) I felt faint and afterwards my ankles were swollen a bit. Keep in mind at 23 I could run a 7 minute mile and was in great shape...I will never ride it again. I had the "seat" adjusted at the proper height and had no "man problems". And I've ridden all of them at Cedar Point, Universal in Orlando, Disney (the adult ones) and never had problems like I did w/ the Mantis. Just my experience
after this ride my boyfriend looked at me and said emily....im sorry but we cant have kids one day! and i laughed even for girls it huts DOWN THERE........
@teamswitzerland45654 damn. that's what i'm afraid of. i heard there was a trick about standing a certain way to feel pain. going there this thursday, not so sure about this ride o.O
i loved this one it was my favorite cuz we wnt at nite and i didnt no wat i was gettin on till i got to the topp OF THE STAIRS..so wen i seen it i was bout to piss my pants untill i went on it then I FREAKIN LOVED ITT!!! MY FRIEND SAID IT HURT IS SACK LMAOO..
everytime, I gray out on this a few times. first drop before the loop is the first gray out, then after the loop at the bottom, then after the next inversion. the rest is pretty painful but okay. How did you get this video? They stopped the train on the lift for my video and took my camera. search "Mantis Police" to see my video under screen name "krgrubbs"
hurt like hell!! crushed my balls and it hurt my legs somehow ()_() ....it made them like collapse...like the rollercoaster was sucking the energy from my legs...this was one ride I actually wanted to stop after 5 seconds of riding.
...I went on all the other coasters, but I was always scared to ride this, only because people kept telling me it hurt, and then I went on it and it didnt hurt me at all...?
@1337ballin I agree. Standing on this ride hurts like hell and makes the G forces that much more intense. it's getting worse as I age, either me or the coaster... probably just me. My dad had breathing problems on it and I felt whited out at the bottom of the first hill like a near faint.
I was seriously freakin out when i found out u had to stand up, but it makes it more fun and unique that way. The first hill is ecspecially fun when ur standing anyways
I've never been on this ride before it says u stand up in it but is there a little seat like a bike seat or something i mean u can't really just be standing i'd die
@CuteLump101 its like your standing but there is like this little thing that goes in between your legs. I know its kind of uncomfortable but its worth it
I call this "the ball crusher" every time I ride this thing the gravity crushes my nuts, hurts like hell. fun coaster though if you can with stand the "crushing" sensation.
lol i went on this ride and im only 12 and it was my first time at ceader point lol it was lke the 5th ride lol i went on the dragster,mellnium force,magmum,mean streak (that ride hurt),and all the other stuff.....good stuff
IM going on this ride tommorrow and staying for 5 days!! im also going to soak city i live 1 hour away so yea!! plus im 12 and im going to ride my first roller coasters tommorow!! im so frickin scared!!! but yea!! ride on!!!
I HAVE A SPECIAL TIP FROM EXPERIENCE!!!! ok. the last 45 minutes of the park, the line for this is 10 minutes or less. i have ridden it 6 times in a row during that time period. also, DONT SIT IN THE FRONT!!! u will get a crapload of bugs in your mouth
i fucking hated this ride! my first time going on it i went front row with my friends, im kinda tall so i felt kinda akward and one of the helpers pulled the seat up so high where i had to stand on my toes and my nuts were getting crushed, i just felt like puking at the end it was terrible
there is just something that has always bugged me about this one. i think it's all the brake blocks. i understand why they are there, but not why they are so violent. it really takes away from how good this ride could be
not THE best ride to ride on during the eveneing. BUGS with fly at your face! its rediculous! haha fun still a lot of fun.. you look at your shit at the end and find like bloody guts from little nats all over your shirt. its still fun though! you feel like superman! because your standing up
This ride wud be so much better if it wasn't standing up. If don't sit in the first few rows, your legs will be burning so bad that it will ruin the rest of your day at the park.

For those who had a "painful" issue with Stand Up Roller Coasters, here's a tip:
Have some clearance between you and the restraint the next time you go on, and don't sit down at all. It's a "Stand Up" Roller Coaster for a reason.
