Medusa has one heck of a first drop, it's not super steep or tall, but for some reason it just makes your stomach rise for such a long time, it's quite a crazy feeling.
@@Third_World937 I recommend starting with smaller rides at the start, I had actually recently gotten over my fear of roller coasters, the nervousness that happens just thinking about it is all in your mind.
@@DextremeDark yea i went yesterday to six flags and went on the cobra then mudusa. It was really fun actually the only thing i didnt like was the drop and i got dizzy but i still really like it
JW HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA OMFGOD YES HAHAHAHA 🤣🤣🤣🤣👏 YOU MADE MY DAY HAHAHAHA (yes I know your comment is from 2 years ago but idc this is too funny) HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Just can't do that like I used to. Ha. Nor do I even feel the urge to. I'll ride something like 3 times in a row, that's about it nowadays. Things like Mister Freeze at SFOT though... that puts me out of action for a few minutes.
I went on this ride when I was in 7th grade as a school trip, and my group got stuck for like 30 minutes. My closest friend confessed to her crush during that. He rejected her… the picture wasn't so great.
Swagalicious Panda Oh shit, dont even get me STARTED on Kong. the first time i did it, my mom and i were ok, but the second time, i was with my dad in the second to front row, and we were still rattling SOOOOOOO hard. My mom and sister were in the back, and they literally almost ripped their ears off it was so rough.
i rode this 3 times today and if you've done the joker, than trust me this one isn't as bad, the g force makes you feel secure in the seat and its a cool feeling.
Alice I went ont he Joker with my friends hella fun. EXCEPT WHEN IT GOES DOWN THATS HELLA FUNNN :DDDDD BUT NOT WHEN IT GOES UPSIDE DOWN NOT THAT SCARY!!
Best part about this ride is the delayed drop. You go over the edge, everybody freaks out, then realizes that they're not falling, breaths a sigh of relief before plunging into the abyss.
For anyone debating to go on this ride while waiting in line, believe me when I say this, Trust me on this one, this ride is nowhere near as scary as it looks, not only is this ride insanely fun, but it is incredibly smooth as well, the restraints are comfortable as well, and ride is overall an amazing experience, you will not regret going on this
Really fun coaster. Definitely the best at the park (if they haven't outdone it in 10 years since I've gone), followed closely behind the launched one that I'm forgetting the name of. Back seat is the best ride (except for filming); you get ripped though all the elements pulled by the weight of the front of the train. This is the ride that made me fall in love with coasters: like 15 years ago I visited this park on a super hot, awful day, and there was like an hour before the park closed but most people had gone home. My best friend and I rode this coaster over and over, trying out all the different places you could sit and not waiting in line because the train was never full.
I used to work there when the ride first opened. Back when ride operators wore tan shirts. The best part was getting to ride the roller-coaster before and after each shift 😁
Really good ride. Exactly what you would expect from a B&M. Smooth, great transitions. Surprisingly forceful. I did find it weird to see that it was installed in a parking lot and that they haven't themed it yet. But that's Six Flags for you
hXc Marc Have you ever been to discovery kingdom? I mean, no offense, but most of the park is kind of nestled in greenery, the rollercoaster area is pretty ugly tho... I noticed too
hXc Marc Depends on the ride, really. Discovery Kingdom doesn't do much with their rides' landscaping, but Magic Mountain has a few coasters with good landscaping. (Goldrusher, Revolution, Tatsu)
This was the first roller coaster I ever rode! Back in 2005! I think I was 10! We had season passes and I never tired of this ride! This one and Roar were my favorites! RIP Roar
Medusa was my first of the big rollar coasters. It was raining and we were there on a Sunday early in the season so I go to go twice! I’d say it was my favorite.
This was my very first roller coaster back in 2000, when it was still Six Flags Marine World. Ahhh... Good to see the old girl still giving people a fun ride.
I was soooo scared of this ride until I rode it. I went on it 7 times! I love that one. My favorite roller coasters in order are 1.Medusa 2.Superman 3.Wonder Woman 4.Daredevil 5.Joker Anndddd those are my top five
heyy ur the most recent comment i found, i have a horrible fear of roller coasters but im coming here tomorrow and my friend really wants me to do medusa. how was the first drop/does it feel safe? thats the thing that scares me the most
I went on this ride and it is the best ride ever u should also cHeck out the other roller coasters like superman ultimate flight,v2,kong,boomerang,roar is also a cool one it's a woodie(aka wood ride)
Dude at 1:12 yells holy crap oh...lol. I do that at the top of all of the tall ones. I love it!! Butterfly city and I can't breathe for a couple seconds. It's great 😁
Hey so I'm absolutely terrified of roller coasters but my friend is inviting me to go and told me this is the one he wants me to go on. Is this a good coaster for someone who's never ridden any big thrill rides?
I remember going on this on my holiday trip with my dad about 8 or so years ago. Ride was down for the whole day till we passed at as it was reopening towards the end of the day. Got to ride it a whole 8 times before anyone turned up. Good times
Now this one puts alot of pressure on you if you havent been to a rollercoaster in a long time especially the climb up and when your about to drop down.
im going to six flags with a guy i like and he said we have to do this im literally gonna faint🥴 update: we never ended up going and he said he would love me forever and ever to me waaay too soon and it made me uncomfortable asf so we kinda stopped talking😁
In your description, you say that this ride is taller and faster than Bizarro, but that doesn't make it better. I haven't been on Medusa, but, plus, you don't notice the differences with the height and speed.
Been on both, and I think this Medusa is better. It gives you that free-falling weightless feel in your stomach for a good 5 seconds at the beginning of the coaster.
I know this is already answered but if be used a gopro chest mount the camera wouldn't have panned during the lift hill. he couldn't have used a gopro chest mount because you can't turn your chest during a roller coaster, especially with an over-the-shoulder restraint system like on this one.
My FAVORITE coaster at SFDK.@Christina Phillips, Vallejo is about a 40 minute drive east of San Francisco. It serves parkgoers from the Bay & Sacramento areas, since it's located strategically between both cities.
I went to six flags yesterday and it was awesome. I rode medusa, Kong, velaticity dare devil and other cool rides. What was funny about six flags was I kept saying is the drop slow does tickle. :)
The line for this ride is ridiculous. I suggest a Flash Pass because the waiting time is 30-50 mins, and um... there is like a temple you go in and those have steps. Get a Flash Pass. #notsponsered
Me and my friends went on it for the first time yesterday and all of our reactions were just screaming shitshitfuuuucckkkk the entire time but then we rode it over and over. One of the best experiences ever
This is my favorite one and I did hate rollercoasters and now I love them so if you hate them then just do it it's fun and just know God is with you when you are on it
Honestly the scariest part of this roller coaster is waiting in line
The line's always short af when I go 😂
Riley Hale same😂
Tru
do you mean the tension or the line in general cause the lines are short asf when I went
Lol
Medusa has one heck of a first drop, it's not super steep or tall, but for some reason it just makes your stomach rise for such a long time, it's quite a crazy feeling.
Zero-G-Worx I had that feeling too! Something i will NEVER forget lol
Zero-G-Worx I honestly liked the drop. Me and a bunch of my friends all said this was their favorite ride. One of my fav roller coasters by far lol.
Sure do
I hate the feeling going down on the drop
Zero-G-Worx hellll yaaaaa 😰😰😰😰😰😱
Medusa one of the smoothest roller coasters ever you glide.
Especially on the first 360 degree loop. Just lay back in your seat and and go with the flow.
I finally got over my fear and went on this ride. It was awesome, it’s super smooth and fun
Brooo how do u get over ur fear
@@Third_World937 I recommend starting with smaller rides at the start, I had actually recently gotten over my fear of roller coasters, the nervousness that happens just thinking about it is all in your mind.
@@DextremeDark yea i went yesterday to six flags and went on the cobra then mudusa. It was really fun actually the only thing i didnt like was the drop and i got dizzy but i still really like it
Agreee i was only 9 years old when I did it for the first time
@@Third_World937 idk just scream
They should rename this "Parking Lot: The Ride"
Pacific Fun Yes, but you can still see the car parking spaces...
JW hater
Because logic... call Medusa parking lot: the ride even though the parking lot is literally the opposite side of the whole park
You know what, laughed to hard for this. 😂😂
JW HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA OMFGOD YES HAHAHAHA 🤣🤣🤣🤣👏 YOU MADE MY DAY HAHAHAHA (yes I know your comment is from 2 years ago but idc this is too funny) HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Recipe for a happy Med 15 years ago:
1. Go to Discovery Kingdom
2. Get FastPass
3. Ride Medusa 10 times in a row
4. Ride Medusa 5 more times in a row
Recipe for a happy Medusa now:
I got nothing.
Just can't do that like I used to. Ha. Nor do I even feel the urge to. I'll ride something like 3 times in a row, that's about it nowadays. Things like Mister Freeze at SFOT though... that puts me out of action for a few minutes.

He rejected her… the picture wasn't so great.
ohhh
Damn, I feel sorry about her.
😬
Tf what kinda school trips you goin on
I would’ve loved to see that
tomorrow, i'm gonna get over my fears and ride it. im so excited!
Did you get on it? Advice! Im going to six flags fright fest and i wanna ride this. but im too chicen
How was it did you love it! !
Kacey Domingo Good its FUUUUUUNNNNNNNNN do kong and v2 as well
+iplaytoomuchcallofduty lol kong sucks
Tejas Murthy yea it was but they fixed it now so its not as rough
Floorless Coaster 1 looks too intense for me!
RollerCoaster Tycoon reference 😂
+imPsychopathic You gotta do that little jump thing they do at the front of the queue too
😂😂😂
I went on it six times in a row!
inzane zucchinie I'm scared on even going on a roller coaster and tomorrow I'm going with my cousin and she's forcing me not to chicken out
i always thought it was ironic Kraken got the Cobra roll and Medusa got the Sea Serpent
Lmao, I've never noticed that till now.
Lol I see what you did there
That’s smart
Love this rollercoaster, brings back memories when I went on this ride twice nearly 7 years ago. Was terrified, but boy was it fun.
Lol, so funny at 0:05-0:16 "Are you imitating me?"
i went on this ride this summer. HOly SHIT IT WAS EXTREME. THE SUPERMAN AND THE BOOERANG WERE AWESOME TOO. But the Kong hurt my head a lot
LOL , same , it was boss !
Yeaaah Kong kinda sucks :P
Swagalicious Panda I LOVED boomerang... its was fun
Swagalicious Panda Oh shit, dont even get me STARTED on Kong. the first time i did it, my mom and i were ok, but the second time, i was with my dad in the second to front row, and we were still rattling SOOOOOOO hard. My mom and sister were in the back, and they literally almost ripped their ears off it was so rough.
Swagalicious Panda kong is fucking beast
God, I remember going on this. My very first roller coaster.
same here
Mine was the demon at California's great america
Mine was viper
same
First roller coaster? I don't think so
I swear that noise as it's going up. Idk what it is but I always get chills
Medusa is my favorite ride in the park
Me too
Same
I love this ride, it’s my favorite floorless, but it doesn’t have any airtime besides the drop, which is why I prefer The Joker better.
palmerhyde and the joker
So smooth and fun highly recommend if you’re into extreme roller coasters
this isn’t extreme
Nicolethegreat it’s Not really extreme
@@talflowtk
Then what do you think is???
Very old thread lol but I would still consider Medusa a large ride, it's just that so many other rollercoasters are taller and faster@@bugonboris6681
i rode this 3 times today and if you've done the joker, than trust me this one isn't as bad, the g force makes you feel secure in the seat and its a cool feeling.
Alice I went ont he Joker with my friends hella fun. EXCEPT WHEN IT GOES DOWN THATS HELLA FUNNN :DDDDD BUT NOT WHEN IT GOES UPSIDE DOWN NOT THAT SCARY!!
yeah I feel like joker is a lot more intense because of the drop. that part scared the the shit out of me
Joker doesn't give you that free-falling feeling though.
Thanks am gonna go to six flags and I wanna do the medusa (I have gone on joker)
to be honest joker was not scary at all to me 👀 medusa was honestly not scary either just really fun. but boomerang was honestly pretty scary.
I’ve honestly rode this ride at least 50 times throughout my life. I love Medusa 💕💕
Best part about this ride is the delayed drop. You go over the edge, everybody freaks out, then realizes that they're not falling, breaths a sigh of relief before plunging into the abyss.
General public moment bro not every coaster has a drop right after the end of the lift
Facts the first drop made me pass out a little but I ended up keeping my hands up😂 as the first roller coaster I’ve ever rode I fw it now
For anyone debating to go on this ride while waiting in line, believe me when I say this, Trust me on this one, this ride is nowhere near as scary as it looks, not only is this ride insanely fun, but it is incredibly smooth as well, the restraints are comfortable as well, and ride is overall an amazing experience, you will not regret going on this
I went yesterday! Favorite ride, cried the first time cuz this was my very first rollercoaster ever, but then I went 3 more times after lol
I want to try Medusa, but am afraid of the tall first drop!
Really fun coaster. Definitely the best at the park (if they haven't outdone it in 10 years since I've gone), followed closely behind the launched one that I'm forgetting the name of. Back seat is the best ride (except for filming); you get ripped though all the elements pulled by the weight of the front of the train.

This is my FAVORITE rollercoaster at Six Flags Discovery Kingdom!
This was the coaster that popped my fear cherry. It’s a great coaster to make your first due to its restraints and smoothness.
Really good ride. Exactly what you would expect from a B&M. Smooth, great transitions. Surprisingly forceful. I did find it weird to see that it was installed in a parking lot and that they haven't themed it yet. But that's Six Flags for you
It's so tacky looking when a coaster is on asphalt, especially a parking lot. Six Flags has great rides but their parks are ugly.
hXc Marc agreed no theming at all at six flags parks
Yeah just roller coasters.
hXc Marc Have you ever been to discovery kingdom? I mean, no offense, but most of the park is kind of nestled in greenery, the rollercoaster area is pretty ugly tho... I noticed too
hXc Marc Depends on the ride, really. Discovery Kingdom doesn't do much with their rides' landscaping, but Magic Mountain has a few coasters with good landscaping. (Goldrusher, Revolution, Tatsu)
iplaytoomuchcallofduty lol Its actually ok in the coaster zone, but it doesnt compare to most other places in the park.
This was the first roller coaster I ever rode! Back in 2005! I think I was 10! We had season passes and I never tired of this ride! This one and Roar were my favorites! RIP Roar
Mid/late 90s to early 00s was truly the golden age of roller coasters.
End Lift hill 1:05
I was on that roller coaster today like six times. It's so freakin' awesome!
its so funny when its ur first time riding bc ur bracing urself for the worst but then it drops and u realize its not so bad
Lol is this the Medusa in Vallejo, California? I think I recognize the rest of the landscape
yeah
Jill Ann Sotelo yes it is
i went there!!
Medusa was my first of the big rollar coasters. It was raining and we were there on a Sunday early in the season so I go to go twice! I’d say it was my favorite.
This was my very first roller coaster back in 2000, when it was still Six Flags Marine World. Ahhh... Good to see the old girl still giving people a fun ride.
Lol
Since when does a roller coaster have a gender? Lol just had to get my thoughts out.
I'm a former U.S. Marine. Things of intrinsic value to us usually are given the honorific "she."
Ships, firearms, vehicles, etc.
Also, medusa was a female mythological character
+Danny Also that.
I was soooo scared of this ride until I rode it. I went on it 7 times! I love that one. My favorite roller coasters in order are
1.Medusa
2.Superman
3.Wonder Woman
4.Daredevil
5.Joker
Anndddd those are my top five
Veronica Rivas Wonder Woman and daredevil aren’t even coasters tho lol.
Mine too. But I'd place Wonder Woman Lasso of Puke second.
i went on this today for the first time, and it was awesome! The loops are so fun!
heyy ur the most recent comment i found, i have a horrible fear of roller coasters but im coming here tomorrow and my friend really wants me to do medusa. how was the first drop/does it feel safe? thats the thing that scares me the most
@@i-fm5kq it feels very safe! the drop is the best part. just have fun!
I went on it yesterday! I agree!
Just rode this ride and am currently watching this at Six Flags. Fucking awesome ride.
I went on this ride and it is the best ride ever u should also cHeck out the other roller coasters like superman ultimate flight,v2,kong,boomerang,roar is also a cool one it's a woodie(aka wood ride)
I can't tell if you're being serious, or...
went on this coaster yesterday. i was so scared but its SO worth it!! its my favorite for sure.
Love the B&M floorless models!!!! I love Kraken at SeaWorld Orlando. 👍
I love this place we used to go like three times a summer... I cant WAIT to go back tomorrow!
iplaytoomuchcallofduty lol Ok This as AWESOME i got of and i was literally so happy that i forgot to take my resraints off its BADASS.
Dude at 1:12 yells holy crap oh...lol. I do that at the top of all of the tall ones. I love it!! Butterfly city and I can't breathe for a couple seconds. It's great 😁
I cant get enough of this ride
I love this ride!!! One of my favorites
Ok. On my first time when we were going up. I wanted to get off it sooooo badly but when you finished the drop it was awesomeeeeee🤚🏻
I went on this exact one. Scariest part is definitely the first drop, i literally screamed until my lungs gave out
I went on this like 5 times today, it was so fun and smooth I love it my favorite one there
The wait time was 70 minutes full of anxieties but HOLY CRAP WAS IT WORTH IT
this was both my first B&M and my first looping roller coaster so this coaster is very nostalgic to me
What inversion do you guys prefer? Cobra roll (which is in most B&M coasters) or Sea serpent roll (the only inversion that's in SFDK's Medusa)?
+Pacific Fun I love your profile picture. I recently watched that movie and I love it.
Sea serpent
Sea serpent roll is so much beter
What a scream of terror on that first drop. You should audition for a horror film lol
Easily my favorite ride in the park, hands up. *Ba Dum Chhh*
I love this ride I've been on this so many times!! Going on June 23rd again!(:
The wait is always longer then the ride lol
My favorite ride, by far.
A really smooth ride, rode it yesterday, but I got dizzy xD
Geez this thing looks relentless. I like it.
Hey so I'm absolutely terrified of roller coasters but my friend is inviting me to go and told me this is the one he wants me to go on. Is this a good coaster for someone who's never ridden any big thrill rides?
Yes. This was my first big coaster. I've only ever been on tiny kiddie coasters before that. It is amazing! I totally recommend it.
Oh yeah. I was always scared to go on roller coasters, but after some pressure from my friends, I did. Now I love coasters.
Medusa has been painted since then. The purple made me feel so nostalgic.
1:47 did anyone else see that question mark in the sky too?
Anjnewt yes
Anjnoot where?
@hi hello this was wayyyy before he died
+CoasterForce what's the sound at 1:05
RangoAnimations do you mean the clicking when the anti rollback system leaves the chain lift?
I swear I’m not scared it’s just I can’t breath on drops
went on it 3 times today, the view from the front row is crazy
the view is great!!
How do you film it no go pros or cameras 📷 allowed
CriPTIK Christopher Marshall get the permission. That’s not easy though
True
I’m gonna ride this in one week for the first time!! Any tips on what to do? Like maybe where should I sit? I’m the front of the back or the middle?
The first half reminds me of Kraken at Seaworld Orlando, but the second half is different.
This is honestly my favorite ride ever
Medusa is like not that scary I’ve been on it
I remember going on this on my holiday trip with my dad about 8 or so years ago. Ride was down for the whole day till we passed at as it was reopening towards the end of the day. Got to ride it a whole 8 times before anyone turned up. Good times
i'm gonna be at six flags discovery may 2
can't wait lol
how was it, even after 4 years
ho was it, even after 6 years
Now this one puts alot of pressure on you if you havent been to a rollercoaster in a long time especially the climb up and when your about to drop down.
Er... Why was the support seen at 1:10 not even touching the track?
Oh god
I don't see it.
It was there was a smaller pole connecting the track and larger piece
MattCamMans AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
FML!
Cuz six flags doesn’t do math
epic af!! rode yesterday; best coaster I've ever ridden! 👍🤘
im going to six flags with a guy i like and he said we have to do this im literally gonna faint🥴
update: we never ended up going and he said he would love me forever and ever to me waaay too soon and it made me uncomfortable asf so we kinda stopped talking😁
hands down Medusa is the smoothest roller coster ride i've ever been on
i really missed the one at great adventure
Ikr ;(
missed the one at great adventure? it's still there!! it's just called bizarro
Well it’s still there just as bizzaro
In your description, you say that this ride is taller and faster than Bizarro, but that doesn't make it better. I haven't been on Medusa, but, plus, you don't notice the differences with the height and speed.
Been on both, and I think this Medusa is better. It gives you that free-falling weightless feel in your stomach for a good 5 seconds at the beginning of the coaster.
Is this anything like steel force at Dorney park
it's similar to hydra but not steel Force.
Oh I go to Dorney park
Going to Medusa today!
Do u use a gopro chest mount
BarWhipScoot No
+CoasterForce do you hold the camera while your on the roller coaster if not where did you but the camera?
Sponge Squid04 EastCoasterGeneral, who films most of our videos, holds a camcorder that he keeps securely fastened to his wrist with a locking strap.
Do they allow you they might not allow us how did they allowed you to record the ride.
I know this is already answered but if be used a gopro chest mount the camera wouldn't have panned during the lift hill. he couldn't have used a gopro chest mount because you can't turn your chest during a roller coaster, especially with an over-the-shoulder restraint system like on this one.

I went to six flags yesterday and it was awesome. I rode medusa, Kong, velaticity dare devil and other cool rides. What was funny about six flags was I kept saying is the drop slow does tickle. :)
I went on this thinking it was the Joker
Me and my brother finally rode this for the first time today! HAPPY NEW YEAR!
What does it feel like on the drop
Like, how bad is it
I think I have the balls to do this, I think.
Rode this two days ago in the front and back seat, it was so fun!
Am I the only one that thinks the ride Is yellow not green
It's green-yellow.
Sam Little Its clearly blue and black...smh
+David Smith lol
Sam Little its brown for me
yes
I swear mom, my pants were clean when I got on this ride.
The line for this ride is ridiculous. I suggest a Flash Pass because the waiting time is 30-50 mins, and um... there is like a temple you go in and those have steps. Get a Flash Pass. #notsponsered
What? The wait time for us was 10 minutes lol
+Coco Puff You probably went when there was no line.
+Mellisa we actually went a week ago or so
+Coco Puff We went 2 weeks ago. xD
+Mellisa guess we got lucky haha
Great roller coaster!! Been on it 2 times and had a blast!!!!
0:04 and BLA BLA BLA WUT THE HELL SHE SAYING?
Lol
Ryan Provost The only thing i understood was "AAND we're all clear for dispatch here in medusa" and the rest i don't know
And we’re all clear in dispatch here in Medusa enjoy your ride guys
It's in my top 10 favorite b&m floorless coasters
Im going here today! eeeee so excited! i used to live in MN so there weren't any six-flags!
i was on this ride yesterday. TWICE! the pics were 2 thumbs up, and a funny face pic!
Me and my friends went on it for the first time yesterday and all of our reactions were just screaming shitshitfuuuucckkkk the entire time but then we rode it over and over. One of the best experiences ever
This is the best B&M Floorless coaster ever!!!!!!!
My favorite part of the rollercoaster at Six Flags Discovery Kingdom
1:14 I loved the drop of this 🤟🏼😠🎸
This is my favorite one and I did hate rollercoasters and now I love them so if you hate them then just do it it's fun and just know God is with you when you are on it
