This really is a great ride. When in the front it seems like an eternity before you can see the track in full as you're cresting the first hill - it's a chilling feeling.
oh man. My little cousin bookmarked this earlier.. I have to comment. I went on this ride at age 13 in 2002 and this is still my favorite roller coaster ever. Something about this ride is so terrifying and exhilarating at the same time. Although I've been on rides that go faster than it (Kingda Kah), nothing compares to the feeling of being on this ride. The seats and the way that the rider is strapped in makes you feel like you could fall out at any second. I remember being about 5'1" and about 100 lbs feeling TOO BIG for the seat! It was unreal. Also, I'm a "hold your hands up in the air" type of girl. Well, that didn't happen til the very end on this ride. I commend anyone who is able not to touch the lap bar at any given point. Lastly, I loved the feeling of going up the first hill. Before I could even see the peak of the coaster, I was hauled over it and next thing I knew, I was looking straight down at the ground. I don't think any other coaster is like this one. It's no surprise it wins first place on Coaster Force every year
Awesome ride! The speed and height is out of this world. I rode this several times. I remember looking back and seeing my friend's face turn completely pale when going up that hill. That hill is no joke. Unbelievable ride. Still gives me anxiety.
@legomaniac150 The elevator lift cable is actually better since it weighs less and gets you up the long hill faster. It also adds to the "millennium"ambience the designers were going for. It's got anti-rollback, nothing unsafe about it ;)
Hey when did you go to cedar point, I'm looking for a good day to go ( short lines for the bigger rides) and it looked like millenium had one. Just wondering if it was a good day to go.
Yep, it gets pretty hot in July and August, that's when we usually go to Cedar Point. Last year we had record heat, we even opened our swimming pool early.
It depends when you buy it. I bought one 5 days before we went and it was $50 per fast lane. We bought more on our second day there and it was $65 per fast lane. (We wanted to see if they were worth it) And they are. A tip, buy them as far away from when you are going as possible for the best deal.
oBRDY I don't know if you've ridden millenium force or not, but I watched a video of intimidator 305, and to be honest, I don't think its anywhere close to being better than this. Just my opinion.
we waited an hour and 45 minutes for this ride..!!! we got to the park right when it opened at 10 am and went straight to this ride. and by the time we got off, it was already like 12:30....!! it was SO worth it though. i would wait ALL DAY just to go on it again.
@Schawn1985 5 feet is not noticeable and the drop length is the same. The Golden Ticket awards are a popularity contest and are not reflective of what ride is actually of higher quality. Your argument is invalid.
i remember this ride i cryed a little its no biggie but like the best ride ever!!!!! i hate the hill i littlery couldnt breath and i sat in the back but why did it have such an impact on me and not the other people plz anwser back thx peoples!! :)
All that speed, and I ask where are the good air time drops. So few coaster have awesome drops over and over, high speed turns- whatever. I want drops 1 after the other over and over
@WackoJackoLmfao As for how they bleep things in 60 seconds, lets think about it. You get your picture taken, theres about 45 seconds until you are actually getting out of the car, on the millenium at least. You have to take the last bunny hop, and then a 180 degree inverted turn. Then coast in as everyone cheers, then get off and go down a flight of stairs and walk around a corner. The workers just have to scan one picture per row, in a minute. Not that complex.
@keatrobot so but they have the same drop height and i305s drop is steeper. not sayin 305 is better yet because im ridin millennium this summer since ive already been on i305
Millennium Force has been voted the number one steel roller coaster in the world in Amusement Today's Golden Ticket Awards six times since the year 2001, and has never been ranked lower than number two since it opened in 2000. Yeah we win.
The whole point of the new lift hill was why they called it Millennium Force. It's faster and quicker and less weight and doesn't take as long to get up a hill long like a standard chain hill does.
Actually I was comparing the wait in line to the duration of the ride, (2 min. ride with up 2 hour wait) but any way your still wrong according to cedar points site. Millennium Force = 2 min., Maverick = 2:30, Mean Streak = 2:45, Mantis = 2:40, Gemini = 2:20. Even if you go by Wikipedia which has it as 2:20 it's still not the longest.
the thing you dont get a good feeling for on this video is your speed going over that first hill. as you crest the hill you're probably only feeling about half the force of gravity, then you get sucked down the backside of the hill and its like 3x gravity so it actually feels like your being sucked back under the peak. terriffying.
@WackoJackoLmfao It's possible it made it to the screens, but highly unlikely. It'd have to be from the picture guys not doing their job, and they'd get reprimanded. There are accounts of the picture guys bleeping it out on the monitors but printing it for themselves.
All you guys are saying that this ride is too fast and it sucks, well you guys are just wrong. In a magazine, the editor said that millnium force is the best steel coaster in all of America. Its 'mericas ride.
+Matthew Balthazar It's just boring. You can't say it's " 'mericas " ride because that's not official. Plus, all it does is have a couple hills and turns. It's not that good.
This is an amazing ride, but that magazine editor has no clue what he's talking about. Maverick is better and it's in the same park. There are also many better rides around the US and the world.
I have not been on Intimidator either, but I agree. And so does the world, cause this year (and several of the past years) this was voted best steel coaster in the world.
Its more than worth another ticket. If you think about it, it is extremely cheap. If I can ride MF every 5 minutes for the 6 - 7 hours i'm at the park I can ride it 72 - 84 times (roughly). If you wait an hour for each ride, how many tickets do you need to buy to be able to ride it 84 times? More than 2. Fast lane is incredibly worth the money.
im scared of heights a little bit but i can ride those loop ones and all that but i have never rode one that was that tall and in a way i want to ride it but idk any advice im only 14
this ride owns you after the first drop, then you think it's gonna get slower but it doesn't. maintains a high apeed all the way till the last turn, 1.5 hours in line is well worth it for this, but try and go after dark, it totally increases the thrill of the ride.
I'll settle this since I was just there, hey already took Wildcat down and Disater Transport along with the Space Needle are going to be torn down to make room for a new coaster.
This coaster prompted two firsts in my life: It was the first time my legs went weak stepping onto a coaster, and it was the first time my parents heard me cuss :-D That first hill is a doozey!

I agreeeeee its like perfection and idk y
I went on this for the first time today. I cried all the way up the hill but it is now my favorite coaster ever! It feels like you're flying!
Waited for 4 hours to get on the Millennium Force & it was SO.... Worth it!!
That climb takes forever, and makes you realize how high you really are.....Love Cedar Point
Awesome ride! The speed and height is out of this world. I rode this several times. I remember looking back and seeing my friend's face turn completely pale when going up that hill. That hill is no joke. Unbelievable ride. Still gives me anxiety.
I loved this coaster :D it was 2 minutes of heaven
It isn't bad at all after the dragging up the hill, when you're paranoid. After that, the adrenaline takes over. It's really smooth as well.
Oh this is such a great ride. Front seat is crazy. 6 seats back gets great airtime. We love it
best ride ever and surprisingly super smooth. really worth the wait
Hey that line doesn't look too long, at least compared to other videos. About how long would one say that line is
It was only 30 minutes
i think he deserves a cookie just for keeping his camera and not letting it fly of the ride
i love it when your going up the hills then put your hands up its awesome
@legomaniac150 The elevator lift cable is actually better since it weighs less and gets you up the long hill faster. It also adds to the "millennium"ambience the designers were going for. It's got anti-rollback, nothing unsafe about it ;)
Hey when did you go to cedar point, I'm looking for a good day to go ( short lines for the bigger rides) and it looked like millenium had one. Just wondering if it was a good day to go.
May the force be with you

one the few I waited for front row. This ride is insane
Top Thrill Dragster in the Millennium Force broke my fear of heights
Is the drop on this ride a belly dropper or to fast of a drop? nice video :)
Looks like the best roller coater ever! I wanna ride it so bad
INTIMATADOR 305 IS BETTER
oBRDY I don't know if you've ridden millenium force or not, but I watched a video of intimidator 305, and to be honest, I don't think its anywhere close to being better than this. Just my opinion.
Milenium is a tiny bit taller and has more hills plus tunnels and better theming.
im glad i live in the same city as it
did you really hold that camara steady.... amazing... that is a powerful ride... good job man
This ride will ALWAYS be my favorite coaster -3
Duration isn't saying anything. The lifthill is very fast, so there's more 'action' thansome of the other coasters you mention.
What does the first hill feel like in detail? scared as heck to go on it, but I bet my brother $15 I'd go on it this Sunday. What does it feel like?
we waited an hour and 45 minutes for this ride..!!! we got to the park right when it opened at 10 am and went straight to this ride. and by the time we got off, it was already like 12:30....!! it was SO worth it though. i would wait ALL DAY just to go on it again.
Love this ride. It's so smooth
My favorite roller coaster in the world. I dream of riding this one day.
I love the way the Frog Hopper sits out in the sun all day, with metal seats. I'm sure the little kids come back with burnt asses after that ride.
My first roller coaster. What helped me get through it was screaming, "I AM THE FORCE THE FORCE IS WITH ME!"
@Schawn1985

Love Cedar Point. Great coaster. Only bad part is the wait in line is so long and the ride is over so fast.
This was my fav ride at cedar point, I had my hands up the entire time😄
Millennium Force is so much better in the front whoo!!!!!!!!!!!! What a rush! I love how it keeps dropping.
I love this coaster, only drawback is you can't keep your eyes open, you have to try it with glasses on with a safety strap. Then it's AWESOME!
I've been on this ride so many times. Can't wait for the 2013 year to start up so I can ride this 50 more times.
Thanks for the advise for the coasters!
OMG!! I LOVE MILLENIUM FORCE!! EXTREMELY SMOOTH FUN AND EXCITING!!
that first drop so serious!! im deciding between six flags, or cedar point!
All that speed, and I ask where are the good air time drops. So few coaster have awesome drops over and over, high speed turns- whatever. I want drops 1 after the other over and over

Awesome ride!!! Had so much fun on it :)
THIS IS THE BEST RIDE IN THE WORLD IN MY OPINION AND LITERALLY
Looks really fun cant wait to ride it!
I freakin love star wars rides!
It is the best coaster in the world.
Great job on holding that camera!
@keatrobot so but they have the same drop height and i305s drop is steeper. not sayin 305 is better yet because im ridin millennium this summer since ive already been on i305
So they have Fast Pass now? They had it a KI last time I went. Good. Um, how much is it? At KI it was $50 each, but it was EXTREAMLY worth it.
Millennium Force has been voted the number one steel roller coaster in the world in Amusement Today's Golden Ticket Awards six times since the year 2001, and has never been ranked lower than number two since it opened in 2000. Yeah we win.
Does this ride use an elevator cable or a chain
Do you guys recommend Maverick or Millennium Force?
tht looks a sick ride. havnt been on it yet. wish i could

Either your holding the camera in your hand or its an category 5 hurricain
Best rides at Cedar Point are Millennium Force, Dragster, Mean Streak (it is a headbanger though.), Gatekeeper, Mantis, and Maverick. By far.
i still think this is the greatest roller coaster ever built ever since its opening.
although i have not been on intimidatior 305
the thing you dont get a good feeling for on this video is your speed going over that first hill. as you crest the hill you're probably only feeling about half the force of gravity, then you get sucked down the backside of the hill and its like 3x gravity so it actually feels like your being sucked back under the peak. terriffying.
Nice! What kind of camera is it?
Cool!! I live in Sweden and we don't have this coaster. :(
this ride doesn't look very thrilling. is it just fast?
Now i want to go to cedar point. WHY does it have to be winter?
How do you sneak cameras on to rides to do POVs?
Ah, alright. So if they are there at my store in Delaware, they might be cheaper?
@WackoJackoLmfao It's possible it made it to the screens, but highly unlikely. It'd have to be from the picture guys not doing their job, and they'd get reprimanded. There are accounts of the picture guys bleeping it out on the monitors but printing it for themselves.
What about top thrill dragster? Could you force yourself on that?
All you guys are saying that this ride is too fast and it sucks, well you guys are just wrong. In a magazine, the editor said that millnium force is the best steel coaster in all of America. Its 'mericas ride.
*millenium*
+Matthew Balthazar It's just boring. You can't say it's " 'mericas " ride because that's not official. Plus, all it does is have a couple hills and turns. It's not that good.
This is an amazing ride, but that magazine editor has no clue what he's talking about. Maverick is better and it's in the same park. There are also many better rides around the US and the world.
How do you know it is your favorite if you haven't been on it?
10 minutes?!? i waited for like an hour and a half : o
@rollercoasterking1 oh man those lines were SHORT! 20-30 mins instead of hours if you go during the week in late August.
@TheBananaman380 How exactly does it suck?
That ride was amazing.
I have not been on Intimidator either, but I agree. And so does the world, cause this year (and several of the past years) this was voted best steel coaster in the world.
Been to ceadar point tons of times best rides there
One of the best coaster in the World!
Its more than worth another ticket. If you think about it, it is extremely cheap. If I can ride MF every 5 minutes for the 6 - 7 hours i'm at the park I can ride it 72 - 84 times (roughly).

@adamweb
where was this ride i wanna go
@MrShadowWaluigi It's so fast the ride literally takes your breath away!
im scared of heights a little bit but i can ride those loop ones and all that but i have never rode one that was that tall and in a way i want to ride it but idk any advice im only 14
My absolute favorite ride!!!
this ride owns you after the first drop, then you think it's gonna get slower but it doesn't. maintains a high apeed all the way till the last turn, 1.5 hours in line is well worth it for this, but try and go after dark, it totally increases the thrill of the ride.
Because i can tell from this video that it would be a lot of fun.
I'll settle this since I was just there, hey already took Wildcat down and Disater Transport along with the Space Needle are going to be torn down to make room for a new coaster.
This is my second favorite coaster I rode at cedar point
does this go upside down
Wow, he actually held the camera pretty freaking still for being on one of the world's most biggest roller coasters.
I went to cedar point over the summer but millennium force broke down while I was in line for it!!
@msfunkygirl21 was is in Sandusky, Ohio. The name of the park is Cedar Point. You will have the time of your life if you go.
@chcdude no its not! intimidator 305 is 305 ft and millennium force is 310 ft!
This ride is freakin' sick
This coaster prompted two firsts in my life:
It was the first time my legs went weak stepping onto a coaster, and it was the first time my parents heard me cuss :-D That first hill is a doozey!
did you cancel the sound of people screaming or are they just not screaming??
Do you really go up that fast
i bet it's easy to get front seat on that. Why? If you were there would you be willing to go up front? I would be scared shitless!
haha i was laughing with the guy at the end of the video. love this ride so much
whats worst behemoth or this?
