  • gonna try it soon

  • i went on this ride for the first time today, and it was so fun, but when i got off my hands were numb

  • Why is it that EVERY FREAKING TIME I go there, there is always only one dragon going at the time!!? IT'S DEFYING THE WHOLE POINT!!

  • isnt this in harry potter?

  • @mmjcwwe Yes. They changed the name to Dragon Challenge -_- I think it sounds dumb.

  • @TenorChops143 Agreed. Its a stupid name. Its forever Dueling Dragons to me. And the names for the dragons are too long now. I was just there saturday night and my friend was confused when I said "lets ride ice". (she'd never been the IOA)

  • ya.. u guys are al sissys if u think this is scary try and ride Manta

  • they are making this part of harry potter. it will be renamed "Dragon Challenge" and instead of fire and ice it will be Hungarian Horntail and Chinese Fireball. i just found out i got home 5 minutes ago from a week in orlando, and rode this coaster about 10 times

  • This is my second favorite coaster! The hulk is number one. Well, actually, they tied... lol. Oh and this isnt part of Harry Potter. It RIGHT next to it. Believe me, I go 20 times a year.

  • A near miss like the vertical loops is one of the best!

  • lalalalala

  • i went on the fire one!!!!!!!! i totally get your point. its very shaky. we even saw a few shoes hahaha

  • I rode Fire! It was more of a thrill!

  • Ice has more Inversions in it :)

  • NO IT DOESNT!

    both 125 feet

    both 5 inversions

    ice drop:95 feet

    Fire Drop:110 feet

    Fire speed:60

    ice speed:55

    and for other ppl who say the mummy isnt a roller coaster....

    YES it is.....just cuz it doesnt go upside down at times...doesnt mean its not a roller coaster..

  • thank you! idk y ppl say mummy isnt a coaster wat else would it be! a walkthrough?

  • @XxHxcDancer6xX ice has more inversions and sharper turns while fire is faster.

  • @xBl4ckJ0k3rx WRONG..the BOTH have 5 inversions

  • @xBl4ckJ0k3rx wrong ice realy is faster i heard it from ride designer but i thought that too so dont feel bad

  • thats a false statement both fire and ice do 5 inversions ice does a zero g roll,cobra loop,360 degree loop,and corckscrew wingover while fire does an immelman loop,another immelman loop,a 360 degree loop,a corckscrew wingover,then another corckscrew wingover

  • Harry Potter ride!?! That is ridculous! The ride is badass as it is. When you walk through you go through the castle and see the swords and everything, and the dragons are awesome! That is just an awful idea!!!!!

  • this ride is goint to stay open until harry potter is finished then they will repaint it to fit the theme...but sadly the dragons at the entrance are gone :(

  • What a stupid hp hype :(

    They shouldn't touch the other ride !

  • they cannot shut this for harry potter!! :O

    makes noooo sence.

  • they are re-theming the ride to fit in the harry potter universe

    i heard one is harry (probably fire) and the other is going to be the Hungarian horned dragon iono thats what i heard

  • Wtf? But The idea of them both dragons is what makes this ride kick ass! I dont want to ride harry potter!

  • yeah i know that the whole idea of riding the dragons is siik and amazing, but i guess the harry potter theme will be alright its still an amazing ride ryte

  • harry potter r u cereal

    so gay!!!!!

  • fire sucks!!!

  • Fire is better if youre ridin for the first time but ice is better for thrill-seekers!!!

  • lol i went on ice for my first-ever roller coaster. everyone was like noo do like the mummy for your first roller coaster and i was like no im XTREEM.

  • the mummy is not a rollercoaster

  • headhunternoob

    umm yea the mummy is. it just doesnt go up side down

  • no it has rails not tracks it's not a roller coaster

  • @J1mmyP4ge did u ride the hulk

  • This was the first ever roller-coaster I went on! in 2001!

  • Dangit i wanna go on this but they're closing it down for harry potter. I wish theyd close down a cruddy ride instead.

  • They won´t close it. Its going to be next to Harry Potter.

  • what that would be the stupidest thing theyre not going to close it down for harry potter are they?

  • I just comfirmed that it IS goin to be next to harry potter so stop spammin my inbox with messages reguarding it.=)

  • WHAT!!! this is going to b a harry potter ride??!! dam... i love how the line is decorated... and i really hate hp

  • Fic is right my family always gets express... its alot better than waisting the whole day for one ride when you can do the whole park in a day.... its really great.

  • Haa I went on both (fire and ice).

    Those rides are amazinggggg.

    I like ice better because it wasn't that intense and it didn't have alot of drops.

    They're both great rides.

    And Hulk was great too! Since me and my family have the all year pass we go all the time! Just wish the lines were shorter lol. ^_^

  • get express passes, its like a 1-5min wait instead of 30min

  • Eh, No.

    We wouldn't need it.

    And we barely go even tho we have anual passes.

    So it'd be a waste.

  • Yeah, fire is faster and seems that the coaster is bigger while it is not. Harry Potter Island comes out next year(2009), its gonna be the best thing ever made, the rides will be on 3D section and some parts with coasters as well, I cant wait for that.

  • fire gos up to 60mph and ice gos 61mph so there preety much the same

  • siicknasty no it doesnt

    its ice 55

    and fire 60...

    this is why stupid ignorant tourist shouldnt be called COASTER enthusiasts..

  • one of the times that i went on this i was sitting beside a guy and his girlfriend who worked on the ride. They said it was being transformed into a harry potter ride as part of the new hp section

  • I like fire better because I like speed!

  • lol i did this right after i was pushed into going on the hulk and lucky me gets first row ice

  • i was also forced onto this ride after riding the hulk lol..it was fun though

  • you know, i heard that when the two coasters almost collide with the two loops next too each other, they come within about 15 inches of hitting each other

  • Indeed, Ice is the better ride. I don't remember a lot about it, other than the rough Cobra Roll and the extreme 0g roll.

  • is it two different tracks? i thought they were the same just flipped around. anyway, your're right ice was the better ride

  • they're different, also, if i remember correctly, the fire was meant to maintain its speed of 60 mph

    just say'n

  • dueling dragons is awesome

  • hahaha y did it sound like its was just a bunch of little kids on that ride

  • i like ice alot better cause it has alot of corksrews and loops and a curl

  • which one do u like better... fire or ice???

  • Well, everyone is different. I personally like Ice better. If you like speed, Fire is better. But if you like loops and corkscrews, Ice is better.

  • they both go the same speed well ice is 1 mph faster

  • arnt the fire and ice both the same type??

  • I road both fire and ice twice yesterday. Fun as hell! Only got to ride the Hulk once. The line was too long.

  • dude you got to ride them twice?!!! i was in the line for a friggen hour just to go on it once!!! and i got fastpass for hulk tho, lol

  • lmfao where i was the fire one was mad long, but tthe ice one was short as hell XD so i went on both

    and the incredible hulk is AMAZING!!

  • Hulk was great, but i dont know how the fire is longer and they both start and end at the same time??

  • it goes faster the ice does more corkscrews and stuff

  • or i mean 4 times

  • that ride waz tight

  • aaaaaaaaaaaaaa that sucks

  • Can u give sumone a high five if theyre on the the different one. Plz tell me cuz im goin on friday

  • no, they don't come close enough for that

  • This was my first upside down rollercoaster. I went on it yesterday and I loved it!

  • same here just not yesterday

  • This rollercoaster is great.

    The best in Orlando alone with the Kraken at SeaWorld. Hulk is back this two.

  • I loved dueling dragons. I just forgot the difference. Is it Ice=more loops and upside downs and fire=faster? or was it the other way

  • I think your right. ice has more loops and fire is faster. thats what i heard

  • Ahhh this was my first roller coaster, and I just went on it today.

    I don't know if it's because it's my first or what, but I'm in love with this. ♥

    Didn't have time to go on Fire, but I think I would have liked Ice better, anyway. :D

  • my first roller coaster =]

  • omg!!! i love dueling dragons!!!! i love both of them .... fire and ice..... i even like them better then the hulk!!! dueling dragons is like more fun =)

  • Looks like Buch Gardens Montu

  • i been on this

    it is the BEST ride ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    wen i first went on it i thought it was going to collide with fire lol i was soo scared lol

    it is soo fun though!!!

  • It soo feels like a gut wrenching Dog Fight...imagine a MiG-29 vs F/A-18 duking it out... This ride is SICK! Rode it 48 hours ago, I want to go back to Orlandoooooo!

  • this is one of the best roller coasters i have ever been on i got to sit in the front for both fire and ice

  • omg cant wait 2 go on dis ride!!!

    it lookz so much fun!!

  • this ride was awsome

  • little baby crriees xD

  • i love this rollercoaster but it goes to fast and when u do a loop it doesnt let ur head stay on the seat reply if u agreeee

  • lol, both fire n ice r SO fun...i NEED to go to the front next time :)

  • rode it 3 days ago 5 times

  • best roller coasters ever!!!!!!

  • i rode this ride yesterday. but on fire

  • This was my first roller coaster ride. It was during spring break and there was a wait for 10 min (the line leading up to the que line was so long!). Except for the excessive g-forces and back pain, the ride was pretty fun.

  • Haha best pollercoaster ride i have ever been on ... going on it this summer again!

  • my poor phone is there somewhere

  • @rossbakerjustin Hey, I think I might have seen that phoe laying on the rocks.

  • @nicorlando18 the dragon ate it lol its destroyed by now

  • Im going to islands of advenure for my field trip and the last time i went here was when i was 3 sooo . . im nervous to ride dueling dragons cuz i hate the feeling in ur stomach that u get. it feels terrible ! D;

    But do you get the feeling alot in your stomach on this ridE?

  • No you don't on Ice, but you do get it once on Fire(I think) =)

  • wen i first went on i cued for ages and it was sunny outside

    finally got on fire and the bloke sed get ready to get wet and looked outside just as we go strapped up and it was pissing down, terential shit

    was the best time ever!!

  • i always take fire

  • fires best

  • lmao i wonder if it went on any1

  • did u puke

  • that stupid little girl in the back would not shut the f***k up!

  • Ice was so much better... The wall freaked me out so much the first time...

  • uuuuh... dat looks cool

  • 1st time I went on this ice wasn't working so everyone had to ride fire... 2nd time was great though.

  • my first roller caoster with a loop i rode it when i was like 8 it was california screamin

    my first floorless rollercoaster was silver bullet at knotts berry farm i never hated a rollercoaster those who do BABYS!

  • omg taht is the best ride ever! i went on ice i almost chickened out but i went on it. IT was my 1st roller coaster with a loop it was awesome

  • I went on both fire and ice. Fire is way better. But ice is more fun in the front row.

  • OMG! i wanna ride this SO MUCH! im going to on wednesday! its gonna be soooo fun! which do you suggest for me? im not that experienced with big roller coasters-especially corkscrews. ive never been on anything with a corkscrew. :/

  • I have rode both ice and fire before

  • my brother rode it with my cousin but i was toooooo scared to ride it

    but im def gnaa ride it nxt time!!

  • i rode that unicorn ride

  • ice is better to me. you do more, go upsidedown more, and you go over water.

  • are fire and ice basicslly the same... or are they totally different?

  • well they are a little different, not totally. basic layout is the same, however ice is more about loops and rolls, and fire is more about speed and height.

  • my dad was on his phone texting to his work people while me and my bro went on ice 24 times and fire 4 times

  • Dueling Dragons(Ice) was my very first rollercoaster about 3 days ago(I'm 17 years old btw) and I don't want to go on another. I mean it wasn't bad but I screamed almost the whole time... but yet again I have a nice scream so why not share it with the world? lol! After I got off my legs were all shakey and I noticed one little tear coming down the side of my cheek. (I wasn't crying it was problably just too fast for me.) (The unicorn rollercoaster next to it rocked though! LOL!!)

  • i absolutely LOVED this ride!

  • wow makes Montu look lame...

  • There both good coasters. I think that montu is bigger but i love them both

  • its so kuel how they almost crash. that was a good idea.

  • i went on that like 8 times it was so amazing! Fire is better

  • ice is better!yay

  • this is the best

  • fire pwns anything but ic is still good

  • i believe that they're exactly the same except for the part where the ice corkscrews under and fire suddenly jumps up over it.

    Fire's better cause of it

  • Fire is better. Fire has all of the loops

  • they bothe have the same amount of loops ..they both have 5

  • oh. I didn't know that. I still like fire better. Don't know why

  • fire deff beats this!!!!

  • i love this ride, much better than fire! x

  • i love this coaster if u ride the fire side it looks like ur gonna hit the fence

  • THAT COASTER PWNS!!! i went on it like 9 times in a row

  • ohhh i love that ride. that and the hulk are crazy fun

  • I absolutely love this coaster! And the wait was cool in the dungeons!!!

  • This was a fun one. Better than the Hulk.

  • i was on this 5 times in arow!! its so awsome!!

  • I love this ride. Have you ever been on Silver Bullet at Knotts Berry Farm? It's just like this one..but just a little bit funner.

  • funner?

    whoa.

    how bout "more fun"

    jeez

  • my hat fell off my head and 5 seconds later it fell in my lap this was probably the second best rollar coaster ive ever been on (and ive been on A LOT) the best ever is krackin at sea world though

  • that was an insane roller coaster

  • Wow I never realized it was just a minute long. I always have so much fun on it. Its a great experience. I love how when your going up the hill both rollercoasters trash talk each other. Lol. And front row is ten times better than anywhere else just for the part where your coming at each other.

    I Love Islands of Adventure.

  • oka guys. call me what you will but ive never been a big roller coaster person. BUT this year is gonna be my year of trying one out for the first time.. which one at Islands of Adventure is best for a first time?

  • Well theres only 2 real coasters at the islands of adventure, dueling dragons and the hulk. You're gonna want to start with DD, but believe me, you'll love it so much you'll want to go on hulk (which is much bigger)

  • lol ok! thanks

  • my first roller coaster ever was the hulk, i think you should try it, ive been on it twice!!! its the best!!!

  • I REALLY want to ride this ride!!!

  • Dueling Dragons are far superior, but Hulk is ok. I just wish it was longer. Nice video though. It didn't have the deafening wind that other coaster POV videos have, plus the view from the back shows the scale of the train and the ride. I probably would've dropped my phone, if I tried it.

  • Forget what I said, I posted on the wrong video. This is the video with the horrible wind sound. I was talking about the great POV video from the back row of Hulk.

  • i suspect had i not been sitting in the front row, the wind wouldn't have been an issue, but then the view wouldn't have been as good. but whatever. it's not like i had headphones on to monitor the sound levels as i was riding the coaster and trying to keep the camera from not shaking (or as you mentioned, falling).

  • fire is so much better in the front

    no doubttt

  • when i when on this for the second time ice got stuck in the lift and fire just kept going this ride has a lot of tech defficulties alot.

  • i cant say which one is my favorite b/c I just go for the sortest line.

  • i like ice better than fire

  • lol i love how the little kid in the back ground has the breath tto yell that long

  • this ride is actually stupid, i live in orladno fla, n its very boring, but hulk is the best ride ever, o n kraken

  • the only good thing on the hulk is the launch the rest is sort of boring becuse you dont feel it, but dualing dragons is exiting when u r in the front, when u see that shit coming towards u u just want to scream.

  • this is THE best ride in the world

    ice is the best.....mental xD

  • get a better camera the wind is terrrrrrrrible

  • I tried out ice in 2007. There was a problem we almost went on fire but something was wrong with the seats so we said forget it. It was a great experience I wanna go again.

  • i am going to florida in april and cant wait to go on that again the last time i went on was september 2001

  • Fellers, best time to go is Nov. and Feb, March. Weather is beatiful, and lines in Parks are nonexistent. I rode Ice and Fire twice each last time and stopped cause I almost puked, had to go and sit a while.

  • ok i love this ride, its not intense(for me), but fire is for speed and ice is for sharp inversions. i like ice better myself... this coaster is also less noticed and better then hulk

  • ICE RULES!!!!

  • dude that looks kick ass im goin 2 florida in like 23 days cant wait did u go on shiekra??

  • the part where you go by the brick wall is insane

  • i just went to that park, n that ride made me almost throw up,it makes u soooo dizzy

  • this ride is awsome but think red is better just a wee bit

  • love dis always great ride

  • this is my favorite ride @ ioa...and both tracks are completely different!!! love it!!!
