I was in the frount seat and win we were going up my seat poped open abd right as we were over the parking lot at the very top i grabed the seat and slamed it shut. i looked over at my friend and she was stareing at me like oh shit!

[9hockeyplaya]

[pattar543]

Rode this only twice, long line, It was my first when we entered the park.It was best when we waited in the long line for the front seat! And it was 9:00 at night, awesome!

[HAT3DAHAT3RS1]

@pattar543 The line on this thing flies by though doesn't it?

[pattar543]

@HAT3DAHAT3RS1 well, I went on a Saturday, one of the WORST days to go. Next year im going on a sunday.

[cchenard1]

Yeh

[Pizzacentral]

[MsCarowinds]

@Pizzacentral I think Afterburn's worse. Ahaa.... I'm 11. sorry to ruin your moment.

[iwatchyouatnight1]

@pizzacentral i have a weak stomach and it didnt get me but the intiminator sure did

[Pizzacentral]

does it make your stomach flip if u have a sensitive stomach

[heiiitsarii]

u still miss yur hat mr chavis. ((inside joke))

[Nazcom91]

I dont know if any of you guy/girls notice but when you enter after burn for the long line if you look at the build on the side where the star is it still has T-G for Top Gun

[Dogsrule981]

omg i just got back from carowinds and i went on that four times! and my face was like :0

[ascl24]

I JUST WENT ON IT TODAY!!! SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO FUN!! only went 2 times ::( long line

[Jtlb116]

[WaldronE11]

Best inverted coaster ive ever been on

[fucklevaz1989]

love dis ride..carowinds in general sucks though..they have pussy coasters

[bassclarinet17]

Haha i live 2 minutes away from carowinds and i havent been in 3 years

[mycookiedonttouchit]

this chick sounds emo win she says wooho

[drunkenmunky890]

every single inverted coaster ive seen always begins with a bang: a big drop..into a loop(:

[MusicShelbyLuvs]

im going to carolwinds soon.. omg.. this ride looks scary!

[MrsPattinson897]

@MusicShelbyLuvs this was my very first roller coaster 2 years ago. its awesome(: you should totally ride it. the intimidator is scarier because you are going faster and theres only a lap bar. have fun at carowinds!! (:

[xsasukesxloverx]

@MusicShelbyLuvs Not scary, just fast and very fun :) I'm sure the new ones are faster but this is just a fun ride to get on. Vortex, however, most boring roller coaster ever invented. I could've fallen asleep.

[sk8boarddevil]

it was fun wasnt even scary whent on it 6 times



[brittpeaceout]

BEST RIDE EVER!!! well besides the Intimadator

[Linda19743]

This is a great coaster, ya think it's nothing watching from the ground but it will scare the crap out of ya, hate looking down over the parking lot!!

[meg563]

this looks so much like alpengist at Busch gardens....

[OriginialSnooks]

i rode this yesterday and trust me its more scarier than it looks

[brennahnicole93]

To me...this is going to ALWAYS be Top Gun

[567nsr]

i hate when girls scream ._. so annoying

[great445566]

AT 1:07 SOMEONE SAIS WHERES THE PICTURE.

[81vidusran]

it looked like it skipped at the end

[hardyboyzforlife1998]

i love this ride i went on it today(:

[sarahthomas26]

this is NOT my favorite, it gives me a headache, my two favorites are intimidator, of course and also thunder road. (:

[TheKillsword849]

looks like batman at six flags over ga

[kaitypooh123]

[teraelizabeth]

I remember when this was called Top Gun. Best ride by far.. well after intimidator!

[Deaderc]

[thaov100]

[Keekee12ish]

i got on this i was cursing every bad word their was when we were going up(before it actually starts) And Then I had my eyes close the whole time i was on(my first time) Plus It was my first time ever on a roller coaster(my friends chose this one saying it would be cool to ride for my 1st one evr) Then i got on it 2 more times and i acutally didntthink wat i expected! Haha My fave ride (no guts to ride intamadator) Lol

[kaboomboom93]

I went on this 5 times today :)))

[1011shauna]

i was on this ride yesterday, beastttt!

[thumpinlikeajew]

afterburn sounds like something you get after shaving.

[MsCarowinds]

@thumpinlikeajew Aftershave? lol ;)

[xsasukesxloverx]

@thumpinlikeajew Lmao! I said it sounds like something you get after you eat their chili cheese fries. :D

[ily2km]

Omg I almost puked on this

[redstyle145]

i juz went dare yesterdai it waz fun but i was kind of scared

[chicletyachillapeppa]

My fav rideee. <3

[ThePureawesomness]

Lol in the description you said NC but it's both NC and SC.

[FurryVegetables]

I literally passed out on the sidewalk after this. My friends say i was out for ten minutes! They wouldn't let me back on, but i kept trying to get in line! :D SO COOL!!!

[bg323]

0:46 random little kid exclaims "Oh shit!"...

[justinbiberhater13]

top gun was a better name

[Mrcool12344]

I remember this ride good times good times

[Ravenkliff]

I know what it means, the strong boost that jets do to take off, but everytime I here "afterburn" I think of acid reflux disease. I mean if it was "afterburner", like what the actual thing is called, i could understand. But "Afterburn"? come on.

[aj741852]

GO CHARLOTTE

[gingerbread401]

i <3 carowinds sooo much thats like my home away from home

[MsCarowinds]

Thumbs up for the BEST roar!

[XxNaomiROCKZxX]

this is like the montu at busch gardens :)

[92VORTEX]

Afterburn may be getting a new paint job next year

[skyemarine]

i love carowinds! <3

thumbs up if you agreeeee (:

[SnapCrackleBANGG]

at the beginning someone yelled " I GOTTA PEE "

c:

[BabiiWildcatRawr]

@SnapCrackleBANGG Didjhu hear the guy that goes 'OH SHIT!' at about 0:46? I burst out laughin when I heard that!

[MochaColaa]

I like how the floor drops

[TheHeavymetalman666]

I went on this when it was Top Gun

[2good4utyra]

haha when i first rode this my friends were acting like it was the most funnest ride in the park.

they didnt tell me it was the second fastest rollercoaster in that park.

haha nearly fainted when i found out and was thinking how much fun it was

then i figured out that..imma rollercoaster junkie :P

[laxman191]

this has to be one of the best coasters in the park, the other is definitely the intimidator =D

[MsCarowinds]

@laxman191 nighthawk?

[haee23]

I have riden every single ride there and my top 5 favs are: intimidator, afterburn, carolina cobra, carolina cyclone, and vortex!!!

[MsCarowinds]

0:00 what the fuc*...

[Griffon9085]

@MsCarowinds I know what your comment was. There is/was a comment that says something about this being the tallest inverted coaster in the world. I was correcting it. That is why I commented that.

[SublimeProdigy]

best ride there.

[HyperLyfe]

A part of the batwing was cut off

[Griffon9085]

Shake Fail

[IAmIva]

Man that's Top Gun!

[justanotherbaddream7]

@IAmIva Well, it was top gun, they re-named it :) i love that ridee

[givepropstotherich]

going on my birthday to carowinds and I want to ride this but I'm kinda scared, is it really that scary ( I want to know from someone who barely rides coasters )

[onesuperbbrotha]

@givepropstotherich i'm just getting into riding rollercoaster regularly and afterburn is by far the best roller coaster in the park (well i haven't worked the nerve to ride the intimidator yet, so besides that one-b/c everyone says that's the best coaster in the park). i get nervous with huge drops and the intimidator first drop is over 200 feet. the line goes SOOO fast too for the afterburn. you have to go in the front seat. it will be an experience you will never forget....good luck

[justanotherbaddream7]

@givepropstotherich if you close your eyes, you never feel it go upside down...well at least that was how it was with me

[JakeD7]

@justanotherbaddream7 I'm pretty sure keeping your eyes open doesn't make any difference whether or not you actually FEEL like you're upside down or not.

[TheMarioman8989]

just got on this today crazy ride

[superflyer87]

just like batman, alpengiest and talon

[MsCarowinds]

@superflyer87 but alpengiest is smaller i think... idk about the others.

[Epicosity101]

@MsCarowinds Alpengeist is hell of a lot bigger man lol.

[MsCarowinds]

@Epicosity101 lmaooo, did you think i was talking about the lift hill? HAHAA XD :) im talking about the loops, the track, turns, haha xd! :)

[Griffon9085]

Alpengeist is the tallest and fastest inverted coaster in the world

[MsCarowinds]

@Griffon9085 FREAKING SHUT UPP. THIS IS NOT ALPENGEIST. GO FREAKING COMMENT ON ONE OF THOSE VIDEOS. USE THE OLD NOGGIN..

[WWEFanBaseNews]

you cant get much from the pov youve got to ride it yourself its the best ride there

[IsaacCovers8lD]

Flightdeck(aka Top GUn) at Kings Island is so Swingy we almost fell off the ride.

[gregg1989]

This is the scariest roller coaster at Carowinds. It always unnerves me when you come out at the top and you're dangling over the concrete parking lot.

[MrsPattinson897]

second best roller coaster at carowindss(:

[amissner]

best in the front :)

[VaMPiReKaTz101]

This ride was so awesome when I went on it. It sucks that they took away the mist. =)

[Picklesthedrummer7]

@VaMPiReKaTz101 They actually still have the mist going on the busyer days(Fridays, Saturdays)

[thelooberry]

in my heart this ride is top gun!

[EarnhardtJrFan4Life]

God help the people that ride that , with a very big problem.

[SallyLovelygurl23]

this was my first ride i screamed till i couldnt scream again Lol

[cfro251]

this is by far my favorite ride at carowinds although when i went, night hawk was closed. :(

[MsCarowinds]

@cfro251 and it's STILL closed. some say they need a certaint screw to fix it and theyre ordering it. others i know said theyre taking it down and buliding a new ride. and others say they are rebuliding and repainted AND renaming it. who knows

[smileyindia09]

rode this 4 times yesterday so fun!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[meerkatboss01]

i want to go on this ride so bad but not tall enough i only 8 sucks but may birthday is 3 months then i should be able to ride it when im nine

[MsCarowinds]

@meerkatboss01 I'm 10 now. I've ridden it all but not the Cobra. It does not seem like my type of rollercoaster..

[121ass1]

i think this is the night hawk.................

[OliviaTheNinja]

@121ass1 no the night hawk is the one where you lay down..... this is in fact the afterburn

[MsCarowinds]

@121ass1 no!

[MsCarowinds]

@121ass1 no.

[freghtliner12667]

holy crap i rode that during my field trip. that thing is super fast that i can feel the wind hitting my face

[UFOMASTAH]

i think the clicks are supposed to simulate gun shots

[orangesonoma]

yeah went on this today ... thought i was going to die..

[gregg1989]

Rode this today. Scary but way fun.

[18Gday]

do they care if u hav a cam? kuz im goin nxt week n wanna record this 1 n a few othas..??

[RollerCoasterFanGirl]

@18Gday YES they care. It's against park policy.

[18Gday]

@RollerCoasterFanGirl well most dont giv a s*** obviously kuz look how many carowinds vids there are

[RollerCoasterFanGirl]

@18Gday That's because they didn't get caught. The person asked if they care. And yes they do. I have seen many people get their cameras taken from them because of this.

[Prim3StaR]

@18Gday Yes they do. It's against park policy. However, conceal your camera while you are baording. Get it out and turn it on while you're on the lift hill. Film the ride (hold on really, really tight!), but then turn the camera off and put it away when the coaster hits the brake run.

(This is universal procedure, so these instructions should be followed on every coaster.)

[braceface289]

BEST RIDE EVER

[dragonecco2010]

just rode this one a couple weeks ago, my eyes were closed the whole time it was awesome!

[dragonecco2010]

@MsCarowinds

no its awesome!!!!!!!

[spongygirl20]

I LOVE THIS ONE!!

this ones my favorite since you get to hang your feet ;D and because you go underground :3

I only dont like the beginning though because its too loud -3-

[sourdouch928789]

i dont care wat happened this ride will alwys be Top Gun

[Epicosity101]

@sourdouch928789 I totally agree.

[shutupandlisten22]

@spongygirl20 dont forget you can take off your shoes if its like flipflops!

[spongygirl20]

@shutupandlisten22 Lol yes.

I love how the floor moves down once you start going up :U

FFF I WANNA GO THERE AGAIN!!!!! ;3;

[shutupandlisten22]

@spongygirl20 the one thing about this ride is that its jerky at certain spots...i hit my head on the pull down thingys and i just saw red and got really dizzy...bleh haaha

im going again this thursday yeah!!

[spongygirl20]

@shutupandlisten22 FFFFF I wanna go there again

OTL

[shutupandlisten22]

@spongygirl20 otl??? ok then....haha

[spongygirl20]

@shutupandlisten22 Its an emote, of a person getting on their hands and knees in defeat

O=head T=Body/arms L=legs

OTL, and orz is the same thing.

[MsCarowinds]

@spongygirl20

lol



[Koo254]

My First Rollercoaster.. :)

[ColKorn1965]

Funny thing is how none of these rides at Carowinds made me want to blow chunks, which I thought was half the fun of thrill rides.

[energizer61bunny]

@ColKorn1965 u think puking is fun?? ok? lol

[Brittbaby167]

OMG dhat was scarii when i rode it i thought mii leg was gonna hit the pole and it went over the parking lot too

[alicealejandro44]

next time i go im goin to ride it!

[SouthernGospelPiano8]

This ride's awesome. I could ride it all day long if I could.

[Jordanblake2012]

i got to ride this three times in a row without even getting out of my seat! woohoo

[scarolina1013]

I FREAKING LOVE THIS RIDE!!!!!!! :D

[2good4utyra]

u know the sound of the ind rushing makes the roller coaster seem faster.

[2good4utyra]

im going in 1 day

[dcgreen97]

The YoYo!!! Where's the YoYo??!!! It's gone!!!!!

[Talemwah]

This is a baby ride. I got scared by pretty much everything but this. It's pretty easy going.

[BroadwayBaby98]

@Talemwah this is my least favorite "real" rollercoaster at the park.

[AFTERBURN1234]

WHY!!!

[popart125]

this is my favorite ride at carowinds:)

[naturalbeauty7894]

I heard someone say "HOLY SHIT" HAHA

[bdesai02]

how are you holding the camera on this ride

[The123dancer]

i went yesterday on this one

[hunterwolf789]

i just went today!

[xoxoEricaDxoxo]

ill be on in 12 days lol

[MsCarowinds]

@xoxoEricaDxoxo ill be on in ... hrrrmm.... uh... NEVER! lol not really ill be on in umm... 6 days :)

[HaloKiller17]

i`m going on this in 3 days!

[swimmergirl4life]

i rode this yesterday and no line3 at all i got front seat and we got the whole thing for four people! But when we rode other rides it was a 10 to 20 minute wait!

[BroadwayBaby98]

I was here on Monday for the spring break special thing, and this ride has really lost the popularity it used to have. I think that now people just flock to the Cobra and Intimidator because they're new. I mean, my friend and I got on this ride, waiting for the front seat, in 5 minues flat. OVER SPRING BREAK!!!!

[MsCarowinds]

@BroadwayBaby98 ikr

[steelsword100]

I wish they would change it back to Top Gun bcuz that was my fav movie

best ride in the park. I
