  • im off to new york in a few months, might have to have a ride on this, just for the craic

  • That ride looks so slow

  • The best thing about the cyclone is you feel like the entire ride is gonna fall apart at any give moment.

  • this was the first rollercoaster I was ever on, back in 1980. It was a horror ride. I didn't go back on another rollercoaster for almost 15 yrs. Then I went on the scream machine in NJ and the batman ride,great wolf something or other. But I will never forget the Cyclone. I'm still trying to get over it...

  • its the rollecoaster of gta4but is this thing safe

  • one question, coasterforce: what is the funniest or best rollercoaster you have been on?

  • @TheDarkToaster28 Boulder Dash at Lake Compounce in Bristol, CT isn't what we would call funny, but it is the best coaster we've ever ridden & definitely puts a smile on our faces. ;D

  • ive been on the cyclone maybe abt 10 times..and everytime on it, i feel like im abt to die..i remember at one point the it stopped midway..i was soo scared..lol it shakes and as u can see the tracks are made out of wood..idk it brings a sort of excitement..and the bars are rly low sometimes i feel like im gna hit my head on them..but other than that..its pretty fun..and its a LONG ride..it was my first roller coaster..i cudnt wait to get off of it..def worth ur money..lol

  • I had hurt my back 3 days before I went on, at another coaster at Six flags Great Adventure, Needless to say, if you have a bad back the cyclone will MURDER your back!

  • This is my favorite coaster ever

  • GTA IV :D

  • I WAS ON THIS!!!!! It was so jerkey!

  • As a coaster enthusiast I cant believe I've never been on the Cyclone even though its not that far away. Shall remedy this soon I think

  • @tiki2188 do not go on this me and my dad could barley walk after this. all my friends have been on this and they got hurt too. DO NOT RIDE!!

  • Every time I come off this ride I get bruised... Then I repay and repeat. I've been on some fun roller coasters over the years. NOTHING will beat you up better then this. Love it.

  • @devolition5456 60 mph

  • was this Las vegas are you an idiot.Try Coney Island

  • is this coaster still open?

  • @ZeroOmega529

    Yes.

  • @America100000able yeh now i can go there maybe tomorrow

  • @ZeroOmega529 yeah

  • haha i went to see this after they mentioned it on captain america :DDD

  • Possibly one of the best rides ever made.

  • i went to this place the day i commented :D

  • it looks so similar to Wild beast

    

  • haha i rode on this ride and it was so fun! the funny thing was i got this when i searched "butts in front of famous landmarks" (my friend told me to search it , im not a freak)

  • thiss is just like El Toro in six flags

  • @lyricscentral9980 this is noting like el toro!

  • i love living in brooklyn

  • Thanks for putting this up!! I'm going in september and i am determined to ride this!!

  • I had to go in the train to Manhattan all the way to Brooklyn to get my cousin and go to coney island it took 2 hours or 1 to go there.I dont live in NY i just went there for vacation.

  • I rode it In June?

  • Why you say it's closed? We ride it 2 days ago! It was AWSOME!!! And, in answer to who's asking if it hurts, YES IT HURTS!!! NOthing to do with the modern coaster, were you are all super-secured and immobilized, this is a bouncing nightmare! I LOVED IT!!!

  • One of the better Cyclone vids. I find it impossible to keep a camera steady while riding. Believe me, I've tried! Good job, and thanks for putting it up.

  • A few times it looked like it was going to roll back or stop. :0

  • was this las vegas?

  • @poop1061 No, Coney Island is in Brooklyn, New York.

  • @poop1061 if you look strait ahead a 00:29. you will see the atlantic ocean. and a beach. las vegas doesnt have any beaches......

  • @poop1061 l0l there is a beach in Vegas? XD

  • The new Captain America movie brought me here.

  • whats better this or el toro

  • @coolspace09 You're comparing a coaster built in the 20's to one built in the 00's. This one makes you feel like your going to die, El Toro gives you speed and height.

  • this ride rocks!!!!!!!! they only problem is that it shakes soooo much when you come down the first drop but other that that IT IS AWSOME!!!!!!!!! oh yeah and by the way a bar only comes down in front of you there are no seatbelts!

  • @bffang1115 people say it hurt does it and where does the bat like land on your legs i wnt to know because in going on it tommorow

  • wtf there's no seat belts????!

  • they should get ptc trains

  • @TRIPLETWISTFAN ptc trains suck, they need millenium flyer trains.

  • @TrainsitFan true

  • I went onto this ride a week ago. AND THIS THING IS FUCKING DANGEROUS.

    My body never shaked as hard before. I don't find it hard to believe that someone died on this ride because of a broken neck. THis is a total disgrace to cony island. Do you all think 8 bucks for some painfull ribs or limbs is worth it. People are getting hurt in this ride every single day...

  • This is nothing i went on ki nda ka + nitro cyclone suck

    

  • i dont like wood rollercoasters, because i feel like there just going to fly off the rail...

  • @Zorza321 ever been on el toro

  • @Ruldolphmaker oh god...

  • being from new york ive seen the cyclone get more and more expencive 8$ now but its worth it hella fun

  • this is going to break down soon and someone going to get hurt :)

  • @CRAZYKID123454321 um rollercoasters get checked every month? so nothing will happen to anybody

  • @CRAZYKID123454321 wtf is wrong with u?!?!?! STFU u terrorist!!!

  • It's the only ride where you have to bring your own tools to fix it.

  • dude... u have teh right 2 scream! lol...

  • This is the one that taught all the steel coasters how it's done !

    Folks love it so much that they get married on the grand ol' machine !

    People were experiencing this ride when the fastest most people could go was galloping on a horse.

  • Now why the hell would someone stand up on a rollercoaster, only an idiot would do a thing like that!!!!!

  • @OMGitsjazzyxD ughh :( well its good if they replace it. it is really oldd

  • @Sardor96 @OMGitsjazzyxD @SkateboarderXD1 Don't believe everything you hear or read on the internet. They are not taking it down & they couldn't take it down even if they wanted to. It's a registered landmark & was made one just to prevent that from happening. They also are not making it a steel coaster - it will remain a woodie, even though it has mostly steel supports (there are still some wooden supports under the lift hill),

  • theres no seat belts?

  • Want to ride this rollercoaster SO badly! But my mom won't take me because she says Coney Island is 'Unsafe'. I would LOVE to ride this though, especially since I live in Upstate NY! We were just in the city last weekend! I dreamed of riding this once and it was amazing, hope I actually get to ride this in the future.

    Looks tame, but I hear it packs a punch. And it's a piece of history! Who wouldn't wanna ride it just for that?

  • @gabby33384 it was awesome!!!!!! it might look unsafe but i rode it at the age 9 so i think it won't be a problem for you...

  • Not even scary

  • Going there next week =D

  • @OMGitsjazzyxD wait, what?!?!?! u kiddin right?? O.O

  • does this have any seat belts??

    and is it safe?

    hehehe...?

  • @SkateboarderXD1 it is safe. and every roller coaster have a seat belt!

  • this thing is the true definition of a rollercoaster. It may toss you around a little, but thats a good excuse when your living in good ol' NY!

  • have you ever even screamed on any of the roller coasters you've rode on

  • But it was worth it!!

  • Not exactly. I went there today and that ride is BUMPY!!!! The cars are wooden!!!!

  • smooth as silk

  • That looks like an awesome coaster! I heard that first drop will leave your insides up on top and it takes a day and a half for them to catch up!

  • to skip the lift hill go to 0:31

  • R.I.P My grandpa 1931-2007.

    He used to operate the Cyclone. Cool, huh?

  • @TheKwacie yeah and sorry for your grandpa

  • this ride isn't the best, but it's super fun when you're with your friend and you're both screaming just for the sake of screaming. <3

  • OMG, i remember i almost broke my neck on the cyclone! But I would do that again!

  • lol i was there saturday i was nervous to go but i think im going tommrrow and imma get on this

  • I should begoing to coney island next summer <3

  • aww man, i used to think this ride was intense stuff. But now that I rode el toro, this seems like child's play =/

  • last row, hands up is better than first:) its faster

  • does it shake a lot?

  • @lawrenceseverin "Shake alot" are not the words

  • I won't ride in the very last seat anymore. It's just too rough for my aging bones. I'll go front seat or second to last. Classic coaster, and it's no joke. Still a thrillride. I just did some huge steel monster at Dorney, and the Cyclone is a better ride. That Talon they have there is killer though.

  • this is pussy ass shit compared to The Boss in Six Flags St. Louis

  • @Beastly21100 this "pussy ass shit" is over 100 years old so its like a grandfather to six flags so have respect.

  • @JerichoUniverse alright. This ride is not as good as The Boss in Six Flags St. Louis. theres a comment on a POV video of the boss sayin that the cyclone is way better than The Boss when ive ridden both and the cyclone, while very old, just wasnt as fun

  • I have never seen a overbanked curve on a woodie before.

  • lmfao "remain seated"? where the frick ru gonna go?! haha they buckle u in so tightly, i remeber i cudnt breath with tht bar and seatbelt xD

  • back breaking expierence -___-

  • I love that coaster. I have been on and enjoyed several other wooden coasters, but wondered why the Cyclone was so popular until I got on... there is a greatvariety and rush you get o this thing while remembering how old it is that just feels more special than the others, with respect. There's just something about it that feels great and scary at the same time. I came away feeling lucky to ride it. Long live the Cyclone.

  • My grandfather operated this coaster!!!

  • Oh!! Ok! I won't stand up.

  • Ok I heard from "zhuzhuclubpenguin" that someone died on this ride........but I still wanna gooooo on it!! It looks soooooo fun!! :)

  • @pinkydinky43 @pinkydinky43 @zhuzhuclubpenguin2 In May, 1985 a man stood up during the ride & his head hits a support.& in August, 1988 a park employee stood up on the first drop & fell to his death. So don't stand up on the coaster & you won't die!

  • @wwwCOASTERFORCEcom I read that on Wikipedia. Rofl I'm not a geek I just know things well alot of things rofl

  • @wwwCOASTERFORCEcom i thought the only accident that the ride had was that it was so rough that some guy had broken back

  • @konie225 No, there have been a few injuries over the years but those are the only deaths.

  • @wwwCOASTERFORCEcom in 2009 or 10 some man got a headace from this went to hospital and died from it

  • @wwwCOASTERFORCEcom. in 2007 a man died 4 days after breaking his vertebrae on the ride. it is a rough thrill and if taller (i'm 5'8") you hit the back of the car at mid/upper back so you have to try to stop your back from slamming into it on the drops. it's such a great ride, even if you have to use your legs to brace yourself so you don't fly out of the seat! scary fun!

  • @wwwCOASTERFORCEcom How did they stand up? Aren't they strapped down? They shouldn't be able to stand up should they?

  • @konie225 yeah, he died 4 days later

  • @wwwCOASTERFORCEcom So that's why there's only a gazillion signs that say, stay seated :)

  • @wwwCOASTERFORCEcom Yes agreed. And to those stupid ones, there is a sign on the cart that says, "Remain Seated."

  • @pinkydinky43 i allmost died on it 2 years ago on my 2nd ride when the first fell happened i hit my back and i could not breathe at all when the ride stopped they gave me water i really thought im going to die and i was alone on the park that day im never going on it again

  • @pinkydinky43 its the best wooden coaster in the world and i suggest sitting in the last row

  • I will never go on this ride after I heard that a person died on it O_____O

  • @zhuzhuclubpenguin2 OMG a person died on it?? OMG saaaaaaame!! :)

  • @pinkydinky43 I live like REALLY close to it and pass it almost everyday. It looks fun but I don't think I wanna risk it rofl

  • @zhuzhuclubpenguin2 Well u can't go on it now because coney island got smashed down a long time ago. :(

  • @pinkydinky43 No Coney Island is still open along with the Wonder Wheel and chiz like that rofl..... Astroland closed a long time ago but the Cyclone remains open.

  • @zhuzhuclubpenguin2 Yes!! Ok I am gonna ask my mom if I can go there.

  • @pinkydinky43 It's not as nice as it used to be but I <3 the aquarium next to it ;D

  • @zhuzhuclubpenguin2 Do you have any idea how many people have ridden this roller coaster since it opened in the 1920's? A couple of deaths because these people were STUPID!!! Have fun and take a ride.

  • That ride is too old for that shizz. :P I wouldn't get on it if my life depends on it!

  • you gotta do it!

    if you going to film, make sure to hide the camera until you start moving. I had mine in the open, and they took it away until I came back from the ride - bummer!

  • I've ridden this roller coaster twice and I have to say it's one of the best. My dad pushed me to go on because he's told me stories about him going on when he was a teenager. <3 Coney Island

  • @MrsJonasxx9 I LOVE CONEY ISLAND!!!!!!!!! :D

  • I haven't ridden it in 15 years but still consider it my #1 coaster. Ravine Flyer II (Waldameer Park) is my new #2. It's just INSANE!!

  • Gonna ride it for the 1st time this summer! Can't wait!!

  • it's one bumpy ride! that's for sure! was on it last summer. :D next summer will do the same!

  • @wwwCOASTERFORCEcom He's probably wrong, but my friend told me that Cyclone was still open even though Astroland is closed. If so, when is it open and can you still ride it?

  • @RedCroc12 He's right. Cyclone remained open after Astroland closed for good as it operates independently from the park. It will open again in the spring & you can ride it until it closes for the winter on the first week of November.

  • @wwwCOASTERFORCEcom Thanks - i've always wanted to ride it and I was originally dissapointed when i found that Astroland Closed

  • @RedCroc12

    It's still open. It's operated by the NYC Department of Park and Recreation. If you go to Coney Island you can ride it. Just don't forget the $8.00.

  • @America100000able $8? That's alot!

  • @RedCroc12 it still is open

  • @RedCroc12 yes you can still ride it lol

  • @RedCroc12 I hit enter accidentally before I was done, hope I remember what I was typing cuz it's an old article. I read that several of the first big coasters at Coney and other places (LONG ago) broke ribs and killed a few people, including the first Cyclone. It and others were redesigned or replaced. The older days were not filled with lawsuits like today, but trouble came with it all I'm sure. The info could be faulty but it was a published piece, just can't find it now.

  • @RedCroc12 yes the cyclone's still open its a historic landmark. the tickets are 8 dollars for one ride and 5 for a second ride. i know the prices sound expensive but its completely worth it

  • Pretty good with the steady hand there, Man!

  • Great roller coaster extremely bumpy, and wild. It can black you out, and make your teeth rattle. The Cyclone is literally the first roller coaster I had ever ridden.

  • @America100000able oooooooooo!!! Bad idea for a First-Timer!! Well, for sheer thrill/terror, you now have a highbar against which to measure any and all other coasters of any type. Aside from the rough rattling effect, there are few, if any, others that will scare the ever-lovin' be-jeebers out of you like this one!!!

  • truely the greatest roller coaster in the world!!!

  • wish i could go to coney island

  • A ride on the cyclone, a spin on the break dancer, a nathans hot dog, mike hard lemonade and an order of frog legs to go.... I love being a native new yorker!

  • @Littlewater frog legs?.....

  • @CoolioJoe100 oooh yes...taste like chicken..lol..with extra old bay seasoning!

  • @Littlewater allite

  • @Littlewater same here!

  • It's was a brilliant rollercoaster, but I never could enjoy it as it was very aggressive.

  • Awesome Video! Looks pretty rough lol.

  • it`s on brooklyn.

  • cyclone for me is a scary ride!!! do you think?

  • Too many trim brakes ripped the soul out of what used to be a great coaster.

  • the only reason to go to brooklyn

  • Needs A PaintJobb,Haha ! :D

  • My dad sat in front and I sat in the 2nd seat. My dad and I were thrown around like rag dolls. Loved the cyclone tho

  • Unfortunately I thought this coaster was rubbish! I made the mistake of sitting on the very back row and have rarely had to brace myself so hard to avoid pain! It was nearly as bad as Grand National in Blackpool! Sad times :'(

  • @jetwhite Thanks for making my night. The back seat is all about the pain. Can't take it? Sit up front with the rest of the tourists. "Rubbish?" Let me guess, you are not from Brooklyn, right?

  • they still operate the ride in coney island

  • looks long

  • Oh myyyyyyyy GOOOOOOOOOOOOOD this ride is in GTA IV but you cant go on it instead i drive on it :D

  • wat other thrill rides like this did coney island use to have

  • @JetFan1106 The Tornado, The Thunderbolt, The Bobsled, The Parachute Drop of Death; tons of rides!

  • looks fun,love the view too

  • Great Job Great Coaster

    Thank you

  • i live in coney im on this ride like no joke everyday

  • omg this rollercoaster is in gta IV

  • Wow! That ride looks so much fun! How come Astroland closed to begin with? Was it because they were undergoing some reconstruction recently?

  • i bin on this like a million times it rocks

  • that's a national monument (honest). i LOVED the cyclone, but it will mess you up...lol. i think i broke a rib on there once...lol.

  • It's the Screamer from GTA4!

  • awesome

  • @MSjonasrock PS The Jonas Brothers are pop not rock

  • @MSjonasrock All caps =N00b

  • worst ride ever. almost broke my ribs and had a heart attack.. this ride is older than my grandma. they should either tear it down or close it. idc if its a landmark. its not safe anymore. dont believe me ? sit on the very back seat
