 Review of Thunderbolt @ Cypress Gardens Adventure Park

This ride had to be the scaryiest ride in the park. It was a portable drop-tower ride, but Ive personally never seen one like this one. Normally the cars are attached to a cable that lifts and drops the car from some sort of motor at the bottom of the tower, but not this one. The car was lifted up to the top of the tower by a hoist attached to a cable. Then when the car gets to the top of the tower, the hoist releases the car and you drop in one of the few true free falls that I know of. Then you hit the brakes probably 10 feet off the ground in a sudden stop. It was great! Ive been on other rides like this, but they are either more enclosed, and most of the time launch you up instead of dropping you. This carnival ride was better than any of the parks custom made coasters.
