  • my fav ride

  • yay going tomorow!!!!!

  • i was on that ride today . i went 2 cedar point today

    

  • FAKE AND GAY

  • this ride made me have to pee.

  • ive always wondered at the part at 1:17 if the bottom rail never caught what would happen..., it never happened with me, in the 63 times ive been on it

  • I have never ridden this ride..as a matter of fact I have never been to Cedar Point, however from the footage this ride seems a lot like THE BIG BAD WOLF that used to be at Busch Gardens (unfortunately torn down now). Can someone tell me if my hunch is correct.

  • @SAMSON12321 iron dragon was designed three years after bbw by arrow dynamics and have completely different track layouts. i found bbw to be a much better ride than iron dragon but it's not that bad. arrow's last suspended coaster, flight deck at kings island, is a fairly good ride. rcdb.com is a great coaster research site. hope this helps.

  • @RomanJockMCO Thanks for the info

  • Yes. This video footage is very old. I'm guessing that it might be from the 1980's. If you were riding it today you would pass under the Mantis rollercoaster, and the ferris wheel you see is where M-Force is today. It's also a lot more wooded, and both lifts are surrounded by trees. Very old footage.

  • This is before Raptor so it's earlier than 1994. Plus, look at where the ferris wheel is!

  • Damn, did you see that line! Now a days you only have to wait a max of 20 min for that ride!

  • this must be a really old video, a lot of things around it arent there (mantis, for instance)

  • This ride has gotten better as it age with the trees growing in on it.

  • Iron Dragon - 1987

    Speed - 37 Mph

    Height - ? What is it?

  • @1986BUDZ 76 Feet

  • I cannot ride roller coasters as I hate heights and do not like going upside down or anything too extreme, but I can ride this! It was fun. It was my six year old and 10 year olds first coaster and they loved it!

  • Iron Dragon supports color look's terrible today, Bright Orange, or is it yellow?

  • this is before millenium force too... look the ferris wheel is still there

    haha

    i dont think in the history of me being tall enough to ride this ride.. i ever waited more than 30 minutes haha what a line!

  • my 5 year old sister was able to get on that ride, after she rode it she said she was never going to ride it again lol

  • When I went on this ride, the lady in front of me literally crapped her shorts!! It isn't that scary of a ride. Not sure if it was the ice cream or the ride, lol, but I felt sorry for her. How embarrassing.

  • now that is what you call a long line lol

  • i once fell off into lake

  • @FunAndOnly you did!?!?!?!

  • @CAZZERNERY ya i did

  • @CAZZERNERY one time i actually got stopped on the lift and fell backwards because it broke we had 2 evactuatt

  • sat. june 26th....i am so there!!

  • Wow. This videos pretty old lol. Look at 2:13 and look at the huge line just for this lol. The Top Thrill Dragster isn't here either so it must've been made awhile ago. This was the first coaster I rode. (:

  • the end is sweet

  • This was my very first real roller coaster. I ride every time.

  • this ride is fun but millennium id way BETTER 4 sure!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • 12th best at cedar point

  • this was my 1st roller coaster and i have to tell you 1 thing this ride is so stupid and it sucks lol good for like 5 year olds lol

  • @datdealaj It's not the most thrilling ride, but I will have to say I've been on WAY worse.

  • the mine ride at cedar oint?

  • @datdealaj Not every ride has to have like 100 foot drops and go 100 miles per hour!

  • this ride was the best ride there! Super Fun and thrilling! I'm eleven and not exactly a ride devil, so this was the perfect coaster for me (:

  • this is not at all scary. i went on it.

  • Nice coaster for little children (and my mum ^^)its not too hard but i m riding it too everytime i go there

  • this was a really long time ago before the mantis was even built

  • the fun part about this coaster is how it swings you around :D.  Very slow and mellow, but for the short wait, its a fun ride!

  • I luv the scenery while on this ride. Its a mellow coaster and Idc if it was for little kids im 14 and I rode this probably 8 times when I went there lol :)

  • is this a ride where ur feet hang down?

  • no, you're inside a swinging box. it's pretty fun though

  • no. ur sitting in a swinging car. its not that amazing tho. it kinda sux. but a really gud ride 4 little kids

  • this ride was terrible in my opinon

  • why don't they make suspended roller coasters anymore?

  • the company that made this kind of suspended coaster went bankrupt, so now only caripro and setpoint and a couple others make them, just not in the same style

  • look i am a real coaster fanatic but i love this ride its just real fun with the sceanery (if thats how you spell it) but its really cool with all the trees and water around even though theres a bunch better than this right whenever i walk in the park right onto this one

  • old old video look at the end o the video and see how long the lines are. i was there last week and there was absolutely no line!!!!!!

  • i hated roller coasters but my friend made me try this one and i love them now(:

    haha.

  • this coaster (for big riders) is seriously BORING but its alright

  • wow how old is this video

  • its before 2003 because in 03 they painted the gray poles yellow/orange to match the Top Thrill Dragster.

  • Bbell887:

    It was actually filmed in the early 90s (around then). Mantis is not there, which was under construction in 1995-1996.

  • The beinning is slow and kinda boring. after the second lift hill, the cars start swinging around and it is alot more fun,

  • millenium force dominates the coaster world. if you want thrills, G's, And everything, ride millenium force!

  • Actually, Kingdah Ka does

  • haha. first roller coaster i ever rode. lol

    such an easy/fun ride.

  • LOL @ how long the line is at the end.. I actually like the ride more now that the trees are more filled in/Mantis looming over you.

  • no loop :(

  • tutto qua?

  • u wont die in two days come on!

    do u actually believe this crap??

  • looks nothing like that anymore

  • looks fun[:

  • thts a fun ride...i must say

  • great ride to take a break and talk to your friends lol

  • Pussy ride

  • more like the pussy dragon LOL!!!

  • dats wat i am (:

  • ur a pussy dragon? as in.... you get pussy?

  • im gonna use ur vid for a top 10 roller coaster vid. thanx. ill mention ur name and the 2008 cedar thing.

  • Or Ninja in Six Flags Magic Mountain.

  • If you wanna see what a REAL suspended coaster should move like, check out EAGLE FORTRESS in Korea.....damn!!!

  • rides dont have to make you shit your pants to be fun.

  • im sorry but this coaster sucks. the line is so long and the ride is gay... not worth it at all

  • me and my bro always joke that it's 'Nap Time' when we ride this.

    although it does feel a bit faster in the front seat..

    good ride if you wanna take a break from the thrills and sort of relax. also sprays mist on you, so it's nice on hot days. :)

  • i wouldnt wait 20 hours for thsat..that suck

  • Wait, aren't there 10 times the trees?

  • So THIS is what the ride is like! I can't remember cause I was asleep!

  • my friend and i sat in the front one day,

    and on like the first drop,

    something fruity went in my mouth.

    so i started freaking out and stuff then

    at that little stop he was like, "what the heck is your problem" i tell him that i ate something fruity.

    he says it was bird poop.

  • oh wow...lol...was it?...and if it was i hope u washed your mouth out good (just for hygeine) not tyring to be rude...

  • the only way this ride is 'fun' is if ur in the front seat

  • omgg, i remember when i went to cedar

    point and got on this i was like 8,

    and the very first hill we stopped and

    at times we would go really slow. and i

    was like crying and my dad said "hes just

    messing with us! your fine" lol. i was so scared but i loved this ride, it was fun.

  • Not nearly the best in the park, but a decent ride. It's decently fast, & the footchopper at the base of the lagoon dive rules everything else in layout.

    Also, the line is amazingly long, how old is this POV footage?

  • its old bc no millenium or ttd

  • the ride debuted in 1987 but i think this POV is frm 1990 or 1991

  • From the quality, paint job, and other surrounding rides, I'd have to say late 80s

  • 1987 to be exact.

  • i love this ride but it is for lil kids.

  • i don't care what you say i love this ride.

  • Me too! I don't know what it is about it... but it is fun! WOW... check out that line at the end... must've been fairly new at the time.

  • crapy

  • Ride is boring!

  • it is!!!!!

  • look at tht line!!

  • this is a gay ride its stupid. haha even though i rode it like 3 times with my friendz

  • it fun because it swings around the turns you cant just ride it once

  • How to is the first drop?

  • I may have not rode this ride yet, but the scenery is amazing! I would ride this roller coaster any day, it looks like a ton of fun!

    I haven't rode a roller coaster with your feet dangling from the air before, but this would make my day! I wish there was one of these here six flags Kentucky Kingdom!

    You feel like a bird flying freely in the air with nothing to worry about, that flying feeling, you feel so free than ever before...

    You feel like you're actually flying! I want to feel mist hit me!

  • Your feet are'nt hanging. It has a floor but it is a hanging coaster.

  • It's true, your feet don't hang. You're sitting in a little cart that swings back and forth. Try the Raptor if you want your feet to hang loose.

  • My 5 year-old loved it.

  • this is a good ride 2 cool off w/ the mist.i dont really like the coaster,but its still sweet!

  • when me and my brother rode a few weeks ago, it got stuck at the point is at 1:37 for about 2 minutes. I made him ride it three times in a row (mist felt good) so he puked at the end of the 3rd ride. Then we went home :P

  • mantis construction i guess? it looks so naked without any of the rides

  • i love the mist it felt good

  • the back is fun cuz it pulls u over the top

  • The end is sweet they just let it rip you get hit by the mist and go all over the place.

  • i think the ride is fun

  • Sore? On ID? lol.... ID is a great fun ride, good starter coaster to begin a day or a good first time coaster for a young one. Second half is great as zjim said you really get going.

  • i liked it. it was a free thinking coaster. a relaxing one, if you will.

    just hope on maverick or millenium afterward and you're good to go.

  • News flash a park doesnt always need taller or faster coasters. Look at Maverick their latest coasters it is a only 110 feet tall but it is insane how it was designed. Also do not forget that amusment parks are for families of all ages so having their mix of coasters is awesome.BTW Blue Streak was not their first coaster it is just currently their oldest operating coaster.

  • dude the little kids need stuff to ride plus not everyone wants to ride big crazy rides like the dragster

  • Thank you totally agree as CP is for the entire family and not only for Coaster lovers.

  • smooth but dumbb

  • Its a good ride its like the Jr. version of the Maverick.

  • More like the Raptor lol.

  • The maverick is better,but I would be ridin' this over the piece of trash-ass ride.(wilcat)

  • Ahh. The Good old iron dragon. This used to be my favorite ride, but then i rode the Maverick. :]

  • i say this is the smoothest ride at cedar point

  • I agree. I almost fell asleep on it.

  • Is this good for a 12 year old I'm taking for community service? He wants to go on a roller coaster heree and I need a good warmup ride.

  • It's a good starter coaster, but i'd think... Disaster Transport if he likes the Dark.

  • i went on this its sweet im wearing the tshirt of it rigth now

  • Oh,To ontario50, that musta ben some flowers or umbrellas on tabels

  • Not az cool as the Raptor.

  • Did you see how long the line was at the end!

  • I like this as a mid-day ride - you're going through the trees and over water, so it cools you down rather quickly.

  • i love the part were the water splashes up at you!!!!!!!

  • Doesn't look the same with out dragster in the background

  • this is my favorite its kinda slow tho but whatevs...

  • dude big bad wolf at busch gardens europe is faster than this, but this looks fun too

  • I like this ride, It's not as great as it's inverted counterpart Raptor, but it has a great view of the forests around Cedar Point.

  • Exactly how old is this POV?

  • This is one of my favorite roller coasters at Cedar Point

  • Mine too! I rode it 15 times in one day.

  • Once my mom and I got there really early and were the first people on the ride. The front seats ROCK!

  • Yea, but the very front tosses you areound abit.

  • did u see the LINE!

  • suspended or swinging coasters arent made to have inversions like loops.

    inverted or dangling coasters - which are easily confused with the above - can have loops

  • i loved this ride especially the turns

  • this ride is really boring. i got stuck on the second lift hill. BORING!

  • wow..this must have been taken a while ago iron dragon looks soooo different now!

  • I love this ride too, but it's been having a lot of problems lately, it's always getting stuck. I hate it! The longest I wasstuck on that was probably 20 minutes but still, its annoying

  • all of fortlansings videos came from cedar point(dot)com

  • Everybody loves Big Bad Wolf's high speeds or Vampire's floorless train, but I think this one is just for the unique experience of flying and swinging that makes it special.

  • yea it is its my favorite asscracker152

  • i went on that a lot yesturday. my favorite coaster.

  • I AM GOING TOMORROW!

  • This was the first ride I could ride at Cedar Point without scary myself.

  • i love this ride!! nice video!

  • It's a very relaxing coaster...nice and smooth. Love going over the water into the helixes. It's a classic...just like Blue Streak.

  • This video IS old, and yes, it did used to have white supports. It may not be the most thrilling ride at Cedar Point, but it is one of the most classic rides.

  • a very fun ride

  • i've been on this, the changes cedar point made to this ride make it better, although it doesn't got 120 mph its a good ride to chill on and plan the rest of the day

  • holy crap this video's old

  • I benn there 1 other time but Iron Dragon is fun but m force and top thrill dragster are better

  • now that looks like fun, i wish one day i could make it out there to CP
