This needs a refurbishment, it's too awesome to remove yet really painful.
Try putting your head back when u go on this ride
+Kenzie Backlin OWN EDCP (Jesusgirl WAN EDCP) it still hit the front part of my head
+SHQ05 oh I told my cousin it was rough because of its age she told me not to trust opinions I never rode viper yet but i want tobtry
+SHQ05 oops I made a typo in my comment
Agree! This is Awesome but i got my neeck hurt.
It should be called " The Mike Tyson Experience." This ride left me with bruises on my face lol.
I lost my ear on this ride. It really should be called the Mike Tyson experience lol
fucking dead hahaha
But its all about the six flags experience go on viper it beats you up go on x2 you may get lucky and only come out witha minor concussion but not luck most people dont get off of that ride alive
@@dailylifewithsteve4460, the ride is fine for me. Viper never gives me a headache. I just keep my head back the entire time.
David Castro samee
They should redo this ride. From what I've heard it has mostly negative reviews saying how people come off with their head hurting or have pain elsewhere.
Elizabeth Schiada It's because of the corkscrews and about 8 loops on this ride. I THINK THERE'S 8 IDK
GameGoodness321 there's only 7. but my owner once got off of batman the ride , he thought it hurt, but he also had fun
i got pain in my neck too, but an amazing ride
It’s the restraints that hurt you. They just need to retrain viper
Elizabeth Schiada I rode it 7 times in a row. It hurts my head but it’s so much fun
This ride made me start doing looped roller coasters. I was scared at the time.
When I went with my brother, I asked him "Are there any loops on this one?" and he said no...
As we were going up we just see 7 loops lmfao
JhbTeam RIP
that same thing happened to me
Same this was my first ever roller coaster back in 5th grade
LOL!!!! Its like no loops What are those then? uhhh flowers?
It’s actually 8 loops
Viper...The LAST remaining 7-looper coaster in the world made by Arrow Dynamics. If Six Flags removes this one I will be really mad at them. I hope they consider revamping it or making it smooth again so it can relive it's glory days.
R.I.P. GASM and Shockwave.
+TheSlickkEffect Shockwave was so much better than this alas S:UFuck up replaced it.
They need to retrain viper so bad. The restraints are just awful.
Apparently new trains from Vekoma are a possibility here soon.
vortex at kings island?
nevermind vortex is 6 :(
If you don't know how to ride it, it can be rough, but if you lean your head in the direction that the train is twisting during the batting and corkscrew, you'll get a surprisingly smooth ride for an Arrow 7-looper.
*batwing
This I wish I knew before they got rid of the scream machine in NJ! I do kind of miss it. It was exciting to look at. Way more so than that dumb "green lantern" they replaced it with.
I tried that and left with a giant bump on the side of my head
I.ll.just.think.of.it.like.a.brother.or.sister.coaster.at.Six.Flags.theme.park.in.Santa.Clara
The.rollercoaster.I.m.referring.to.is.called.The.Demon
I do the same thing too
Sad thing is it's the only one of its kind left in the world :(
Why?😥
+SHQ05 this is one of the last two of the four sisters
Vortex 1987-Present
Shockwave 1988-2002
Great American Scream Machine 1989-2010
Viper 1990-Present
There is one almost just like it at Six Flags Saint Louis called Ninja; its older than this one though
Check out Vortex at Kings Island. It's also made by Arrow, but with six inversions.
I was pissed when great adventure removed the scream machine. It was better than green lantern as it's just another b&m we didn't need
The train pulls in the station dude said “ how was that?” Everyone was quiet😂
they're traumatized😂💀
They were too dizzy to reply lol
LOL 😭😭😭
"it was very painful my head hurts" lmao
Everyone shook their head no when I went (including me)
I love Viper so much. I got to ride it two times in a row cause of the really short lines, but honestly I didn’t even bump my head or my neck, it was a really fun ride with great speed and many loops. 10/10
This ride should be called "The Concussion"
LMAO
I'm actually dying
Fax
🤣
Lmfaoooo
like or comment if you'd rode the one and only Viper!
my top 9 fav rc ! I'm going to six flags (class of 2016) for grand night ! 😊
+Elizabeth Adan everyone in 8th grade at school gets to go on a field trip to six flags
+Suzi Islam same with us!
I've rode it and it was pretty fun but the only thing I hate is when it keeps hitting my head and my ears
+Timothy Kerofsky and Family so did I in June 1990. the line was sooo long tho... waiting waiting..
First thought: this rollercoaster looks like the one in Final Destination.
Alfredo Grajeda ikrr
It looks like it was but the real one was Corkscrew at Playland. It may look small but the CGI in FD made it look HUGE
YungGawd47 Omg!! Yea!! That's what I was thinking while watching this video! No wonder why all that crazy shit happened!!
Garbage movie
Apparently this one was on the list of ones they were considering using for the movie, but they went with the (much smaller) Vekoma Corkscrew instead. Keep in mind 1) they had to find a park that would be willing to shut down the ride to the public for an extended time so they could film on it, and 2) the actors had to ride it nearly 20 times in a row to film all the scenes, and while a coaster enthusiast may be able to ride this 20 times in a row with no ill effects a lot of people wouldn't.
This thing beats you up!
Same my head was hurting
I had a headache for the next 2 hours after the ride. And my ears were pretty beat up from the restraints
My head hurts watching and thinking about this... :3
It might've beat me up but it was my favorite ride then :P
transfo47 i promise you the viper is just like the ninja at six flags over georgia. It will beat the s*** out of you
This was one of the least painful arrow loopers I rode. I actually enjoyed it. Arrow loops are just beautiful and hilarious at the same time.
Felt like my ears were on its menstrual cycle after this ride.
OBEY Emerica lmaoooo
Lmao my ear piercing almost bled off
@@juliac1322 I.m.so.glad.that.didn.t.happen
This was my favorite coaster in the 1990's. The last time I rode it, there was no X coaster to look at when you reach the top of the lift hill. Sadly, it became a rough ride as many Arrow coasters have, but Ron Toomer was very proud of this one, as he should be.. RIP, RON
its called the headache inducer
This is litteraly the most painful ride in six flags.
freefall was complete pain.
Alex Leon try riding green lantern and you will see that you're wrong
Pussy
Alex Leon gold rushers 😂😂
What about "take 2 Tylenol after every fuckin' ride" Revolution...with it's sudden sharp twists and turns!!! 😂😂😂😂😂
I've ridden this one. It's a freakin blast
Reze2eweerrr TV t wwee week r eek we we ereeare r at 830 I read y7rytt
Yea I don’t know why people complain like just don’t ride it
This ride turned my ears red. It's rough but fun!
One of my favorite coasters ever! And I've ridden 106 to date...
Great, massive drop. Forceful loops, and nice slow corkscrews.
It must've been the only thing you rode. 106 times. WOW!
I only got to ride it once when it was still new.
@@aaronwilliams6989 I think they're saying they've ridden 106 different coasters in the world and this is one of their favorites.
@@efoley27 You might be right. It's just the way it was worded.
A.K.A. Headache - THE RIDE
Other than that, this ride is awesome. I love the loops.
this ride DESTROYED my neck
fourthsoul LMAOOOO
Same
me too i thought i was the only one that shit hurt
Lmfaooooo
1:14 why screaming goat why are you on viper
Slender man I
Slender man 😂😂😂😂😂
Slender man omg 😂😂😂
OMG HAHHAHHAA
I remember when this ride was smooth as silk. I was a kid and this was my favorite ride at the park. This was back when it first opened, of course. But now it's one of the worst rides at the park. So painful. I refuse to ride it, which makes me kinda sad, since I have so many fond memories of it. -_- Oh well. It's only a matter of time before they either remove it completely or revamp it. I vote for the latter, because I think it deserves it.
Yeah... They should have redone this instead of revolution
Idk i kinda like that it's jank it adds to the fun for me
@@themagicboy6548 I think this ride gave me multiple concussions in the 90s.
I went on this ride when I went to California on a school trip in 94. Really fun.
This is the best ride ever. It gets a lot of hate but its underrated and even Theme park enthusiasts say the same. I love this ride and I hope it stays for a while.
idc what others say, to me viper is still dope😉😖
True all the people that say it gives headaches are all pussies
@@jjswiss2362 they're dumb and can't use their brain to read the track and anticipate their body for the g forces
SoCal Surfer 88 I disagree with both of you guys because my friend and I are never going on this again cause it hurts and we are not scaredy-cat cats. My friend has been on the tallest and second fastest roller coaster in the world so she is not scared and I’m not either, but I did get a back injury and bruised my face so yeah. I’d rather have someone punch me than that.
Thecursedblackhole Would you go on Viper if it was refurbished, with new trains that had only seatbelts and lapbars?
I MOST CERTAINLY WOULD!!!!
Sean Lewis yeah I would and I hope that happens.
This ride needs new trains with lap bars like Full Throttle. Viper would be 10x better.
Yep
I'd rather have the shoulder restraints, truthfully. feel more safe
+Maximus Toon WTF?!
No It DOES NOT.
The ride is cool and thrilling just like it is.
I respect your opinion though.
NO OFFENSE .
What they need to do first and foremost is smooth the ride out. I've heard people say it's incredibly painful. Sure, some people may enjoy a rough riding coaster, but most people don't. That's why wooden coasters were partially phased out.
IDK if that Would help It would Still Be Bumpy my dad said he rode one older steel coaster with Lap bars he said It was bad
Six Flags Magic Mountain should look into investing in soft shoulder restraints for this ride. Like the restraints on Banshee at Kings Island, for example. You know, for all the people who complain about head banging...
Yea those restraints would reduce headbanging. I thing those restraints are the same as the Carolina cobra restraints
+Spinkicker arrow dynamics is no longer in operation. they were bought by s&s worldwide
I am aware of that. Why does it matter?
or lap bars
+Spinkicker If they padded the restraints, Id be happy.
Best rollercoaster I have ever done.
I wish Britain had Coasters like that.
Viper, my all time favorite ride.
The double tear drop loops made my eye balls feel as if there not in focus.
That's the blood draining out of your head from the G forces.
I rode this. One of my favorites at SFMM. The batwing element right after the brake run is really cool, and the double corkscrew in the second half creates a weird optical illusion. It's also a VERY smooth ride, especially since the seats were recently fixed. Everything a good coaster should have.
when i went on this ride, i learned the way how to lean a certain way and it won't hurt you
Favorite ride at Magic Mountain!
I absolutely love the twists and turns on this ride. One of the best coasters I have ever been on.
Despite the bumpy ness and jerking, this ride was fun!! Just make sure to hold on super tight! I had to hold my head to the side really hard so that it wouldn’t jerk to the other side. I rode it like 20 times because there was no line for it at all! I wonder why though...
Truly a classic roller coaster of all time! One of my favorites regardless of the bad press. but yes, softer harnesses won't hurt, only improve ridership.
I have been to Six Flags 3 times and every time I ride this coaster multiple times. Once my friend and I rode it 7 times in a row. Had a bad headache after but it was worth it. Lol.
My favorite coaster.🤘😎
I like this ride, but they need to update it
it was the very first ride i rode at my first time at six flags M.M. Yes. It hurt my neck and gave me a migraine.. new padding on the restraints would be nice.
Virtually almost all neck pain can be avoided if you use the muscles in your neck and take advantage of the headrests.
Even with that advantage, that is part of the cause of neck pain. Trying to keep your head still from it banging around.
Even on coasters far rougher than Viper, it has never failed me...
well that sounds like a personal problem. Everyone's different so stop contradicting everything I have to say about the ride..... I still like the ride. Every experience is different with everyone
I remember the corkscrew like it was yesterday.. almost 20 years later... awesome , loved it!!! 💯💯💯💯💯❤️
With the loops, batwing, and double corkscrew at the end, it reminds me of Drachen Fire pre 1994 at Busch Gardens in VA.
This ride hurts like a bitch. It gave me headaches after i rode it but aye that ride is from the 90's when they build it by hand and not with computers so obvs this ride will be a pain but i give them credit for the hard work and the loops. Loops are my favorites in rollercoasters.
well yes I can see that it beats you up but not all coasters from the 90's are rough take a look at nemmy or oblivion both made in the 90 's
I miss you viper so much ❤️
Looks epic !!
Nice POV!
Well, since Viper is the name of this very hoopiest roller-coaster at Six Flags Magic Mountain, there's even a snake called a viper too. Because viper is the name of a snake too! And it's a snake!
“How was that”
Silence because all the riders have concussions
This is always the first ride I get my day started with at Six Flags!
Viper IS my childhood! I actually got KICKED OUT of Six Flags Magic Mountain on my birthday because my friends (not me) were filming their experience on one of Magic Mountain's coasters. I'm probably dating myself but there was a time when trying to film a POV coaster ride was not tolerated. The future is good times.
This is my dad's favorite ride at Magic Mountain. Unfortunately, now he has sciatica, so no more seven loops for him.
+Catherine H. he's been going to acupuncturr
+Angeles Lennon-Dameron (Cupcake) *acupuncture
sorry im not that samrt but what is sciatica?
JT wow I feel bad that it’s been 2 years and your comment hasn’t been answered
@@JT-qk9kn it’s like pain in your leg or pelvis
I love this ride but the seats need to have more padding. I am short and my head kept banging causing me to get a headache. Otherwise it is a good ride.
I love that ride! Its like my all-time favorite rollercoaster!
When I was a kid I had a vhs tape called there goes a rollercoaster. It was filmed at magic mountain and was more or less just a giant advertisment for it. The scene where they showcased viper was always my favorite. 20 years later I finally got the chance to go to magic mountain and ride viper and you know what? It kicked the living shit out of me. 20 god damn years to have my head slammed back and fourth countless times.
They need to add some type of cushioning to this ride, it kept smacking the life out of my head. It gave me a headache
I love viper!
jayleen coronel Me too
Annie Bauer i want to get in the viper but I’m scared any tips???
The chairlift sounds so good, I was waiting in line for x2 and I watched viper over and over😂
Great Ride. very underrated
I broke my neck on that thing 😂(just kidding , my neck just hurted for a whole day)
OH MY GOD ive rid this ride so meny times its so fun =)
great vid. the last time i went to MM was when this ride was new!!! guess i should catch up on all the coasters they have built since then.
I remember these rides❤️ I went for a choir field trip like 3 weeks ago and I want to go back!!
comment if the viper was your favorite 😉👌
Looks like the corkscrew coaster in playl and where final destination was filmed
The one in Final Destination was The Great American Scream Machine at Six Flags Great Adventure.
Yeah in Vancover
Awesome Video
Glad you enjoyed it
amazing!
This ride hurts, it left my ears red and my sisters earring got pulled off from her ear and she started bleeding
My friend had that happen to her also
They need to fix the seats and make them more like scream just not floorless.
great ride!!
Quite a few loops looks fun😉
hurts your head. 😓
it looks like final destination 3!
Now that I think about it, it kinda does.
Cool vid!
My favorite thing about this ride is that it sounds like it's freaking falling apart when the train goes up the lift hill. Lol
Ha ha!
I had got on viper for the first time with some earings, and my ear was red when I got off.
Generally no as you are not supposed to ride the type of coaster with earrings on (they specifically said not to with its sister ride at Great adventure).
I actually cried on this one, not because I was scared, because I hit the sides of my head on the bars to much it hurt really bad... And I'm only 11
+Pumpkin;) Go on it when your older
Its a bit clunky in that way, but once you grow up more, its perfectly fine
And really fun too!
Depends, is your head still in between the OSTR? If yes, no, if no, yes.
Over the shoulder restraint
You should put your hands on the sides of your head while on the ride. It helps a lot.
Same, I cried and hit my head but after the ride was over, I was kinda happy
I did not have the painful experience on this ride that I was fully expecting to have. Fun!
Awesome ride the coaster.
i thought chinese coasters had the slowest lift hills
I used to love this ride even though its rough on the head and neck. I'm sad I can no longer handle all the loops and corkscrews.
This ride is awesome ngl, one of the most memorable rides at MM for me, I was so scared of being beat up to death that I actually enjoyed it
A whole new dimension of pain...
This ride needs to go back to hell where it came from.
this is hands down the most twisted creation magic mountain came up with. i love that coaster!!!!
I remembered when this ride opened. I was a child back then and was wasn’t tall enough to ride. I was devastated. All I could do after finding out I couldn’t ride was stare at the first loop. I still vividly remember that moment. I loved watching this coaster in motion. I ride it every time I went back, once I could ride it. I haven’t been to MM since 2001, but I remember how it felt to ride this coaster. Yea, it’s rough. BUT, I remember the fun I had most. The backseat was the funniest section to ride in. Flying over the top of the hill...painful, but fun. That first loop was so epic. I loved the last four inversions. So disorienting. Now, my memories of my childhood and teenage self may, contrast greatly if I were to ride it today, as a 30 something year old man! 😂 Again, I remember how rough it was! 😂
The worst roller coaster in the world -,-
To me, Raptor from Cedar Point is the worst coaster I have ridden.
Bizarro SFNE is so horrible it almost DESTROYED my roller coaster interest before it began.
SarahPToadstool lolololololololl
BryceFourn 2001
Really? Raptor was an incredible ride!
***** Everyone loves Raptor except me!
The last Arrow seven-looper. Protect it at all costs.
This was my first loop roller coaster! Good times!
Mine was revolution
Woohooo !!
Going On Saturday with My Big Brother ((:
so excited !
Most underrated coaster at the park.
It’s not that it is underated it’s just painful so people don’t get on
i love this ride so much. next to the boomerang.
Omfg I couldn't stop laughing at that one guy screaming "woo" 😂😂😂😂😂
This ride beats you up a bit but its tolerable enough It kind of adds to the fun.
It’s so good!
viper is one of my favorite rides
I hope I win the lottery and can save this coaster when it closes. Call in vekoma to retrack the rough transitions, keep that awsome sounding classic lift. Have the trains modified to have comfort collars instead of hard restraints. This ride would be a elite coaster if it was smooth.
You got to know how to ride this 1 I rode it a ton when I was younger got used to it now I know how to ride it without getting hurt!
ahhh! my first looped coaster :))
