Drachen Fire

[jslim39]

I'm sure this coaster wasn't that painful... freaking little girls ruining unique rollercoasters...

[sexydork129]

they shoul hav kept this ride its sick nasty cool

[Shirako1]

@sexydork129 They should remake this..

This coaster was supposed to be made by B&M. But they got Arrow instead. Do you know how badass it would be if it were made by B&M?? It would be popular as Kumba.

[ryanneb2010]

the layout for this coaster was really weird.....Busch Gardens Africa was lucky they got Kumba made by B&M instead of this.

From what I heard this coaster is now multi million dollar supports for the griffon. That's what i heard though.

Nice video. One coaster I will always remember riding and I will miss forever too.

[JakeT7]

My favorite all time, even if it banged the hell out of my head at times.

This thing felt like Cadillac compared to roof ride of Alpengeist.

This was a great ride. I wish they had kept it. What was really fun is if ride it just after it had rained the damn thing was even faster! The long sweepers were incredible.

[kukubird210]

I hope they rebuild this but like with B&M to make it smooth, it looks LEGENDARY!!!!

[blablapeepants]

lol no screamin thats what u expect right???

[jada328]

ya i rode this before. after a couple beers, this ride is smooth.

Loved this ride, but it really was rough. I could only ride it a few times each visit before getting a headache. I also know a girl whose back was snapped by it. She got a huge settlement and that's the sort of thing that made them get rid of it. They lost their insurance on it. Great concept, poor execution.

Drachen Fire was such a great ride, and it wasn't nearly as rough as people say. The unique inversion right after the lift hill was so unique, and my fave part of the ride!!!

[bigrob029]

I was lucky enough to actually ride this in its heyday, and it was awesome but very rough. Arrow should have just scrapped the B&M design and made their own; Vortex is still standing with more inversions than this... and the curly fry commercial it spawned is classic. They even copied the separate "nosecone" on the trains, and the camel back element. I'm not glad its gone, but that first inversion about 100 ft off the ground at barely 30 mph was a doozy, wtf were they thinking?

[JIMFoamy1]

is the ad online?

[Air0374]

Some parts look so awkward...no wonder people complained...

[bigrob029]

a lot of them were complaining of ripped out earrings... obviously they shouldve read the signs all over the place...

[wardo221]

thats an awesome coaster. shame it went. got sum unique inversions there

[kevonthemaster]

why did bucsh gardens tear that down

[keridog1]

because it was a very rough ride and people cpmplained

[YatesyMU]

Watching this now... I don't know why I used to be such a bitch about rollercoasters. I do this for fun now at 200kts.
