Falcon’s Fury rises at Busch Gardens Tampa in 2014
In spring 2014 Busch Gardens Tampa is taking guests’ experiences to new heights with Falcon’s Fury, the first drop tower of its kind in the world, mimicking the dive speeds of the fastest animal on earth.
Falcon’s Fury will stand at 335 feet (102metres) and take riders plunging 60 mph straight down. At the ride’s highest point Busch Gardens has added an element of surprise. Like its bird of prey namesake, riders will pivot 90 degrees in midair to a face-down dive position. An instant later they'll plunge 60 mph at 3.5 Gs straight down with speed and power like they’ve never experienced before. Located in the Timbuktu area of Busch Gardens, Falcon’s Fury will be visible from any location in the park and even across the Tampa Bay area. |

With no connecting structures, it will be the tallest freestanding drop tower in North America.

Not usually scared by any rides at all, but think I would have to think twice on this one!
