The first drop is A LOT more intense than it looks on camera! The rest of the ride is fun and not scary. That first drop though is so crazy. Besides Iron Gwazi which will open soon, Sheikra is the tallest rollercoaster there.
I went on the Gwazi and this ride had a way more intense drop! I think the speed of Gwazi minimizes the drop intensity. Although the Gwazi is insane because you don't have a shoulder harness! All you get is a Lap band which makes you feel like you might die the whole time hahaha.
Thats the best thing of it. All the times i was there, I went for 1st roll on this ride just because of this feeling before the drop. You float for a while with all your body weight pressing doing praying for the belt to not open. Lol and suddenly, u just drop. Def one of my favorites rides ever. Increndible feeling on this drop.
This is a great coaster. That first drop is higher than it looks on video, you rethink you're decision making skills 'cause it's so high, but the whole ride is smooth, like floating. Perfect blend of fear and fun.
this roller coaster was so terrifying while i was looking at it from afar, but going on it was literally the best experience ever, its so breathtaking and its AMAZING! 10/10 would recommend this roller coaster
I love roller coasters as the next guy, when I'm standing in the line to get on I'm excited 😁, but once I get on the ride I'm terrified and I decide not to get on the rest of them for the rest of the day 😂
❤️ I’ve been on Sheikra with my dad and my sister when we went on holiday to Florida, USA, it was back in 2009, we visited Busch Gardens for the day, we saw the animals and went on the rides. It was one of the best experiences of my life. ❤️
I have been on this ride multiple times and I am just here to give advice. Every time I get in line I get nervous because I’m not a huge fan of that drop feeling... but I always remind myself that it is quick. Even though no one likes the drop, It’s very short and so worth it!
As someone who is completely scared of heights but loves rollercoasters, this was a super fun ride. Worst part of the whole thing was the lift up to the drop. After I got up the hill and was dangling I wasn’t even worried about the drop.
This ride looks so much scarier than it actually is, I was scared to go on it for the longest time, but when I finally went on it, it was nothing, but I’ll always have a fear of getting stuck on a roller coaster.
Yeah same, I went on kingda ka, I wasn't afraid of the actual height (well sort of lol) the launch though, never experienced a launch that goes that fast (128 mph) only other launch coaster I've been on was incredible hulk at islands of adventure
Literally that and final destination whatever one it was I believe it was 3 made me never go on coasters until last year. I had so much fun when I went but still only did half the rides I planned on the fear came back in on two rides unfortunately.
just went and some group got stuck on it. they were up there for like 30 mins and then people went up and walked them down i believe. now im about to go on it an hour later lol
I just rode Sheikra today When you go up, it brings your whole body up When you're about to go down, the views are awesome Your stomach drops a little And the second drop is no stomach drop at all. And the ride is really quick The way I got my confidence was riding Kumba
This was my first big roller coaster. Ive always been super scared of roller coasters and my brother forced me to go on it. And I'm so thankful he did. After the first drop it's so fun and the fear disappears. After that I went on all the rides with no fear.
If you think this is short check out Oblivion at Alton Towers. It's made by the same company but you can see how far they've come with this coaster type.
My son is 9 and he went on. It was a Saturday morning at Busch gardens and he said this was his favorite day. It’s been a week now and we went to different parks, and this is still his favorite ride. You guys should really try it!! Double thumbs up.👍🏻
I have road middle row and back and I didn’t get to ride it in the first row yet but it is way more intense in real life, this video is shot in like 0.5 zoomed out so it is the 3-D visual effect but I mean seriously it is way worse in real life I love the ride personally! One thing I will never ride a bush Gardens is “the flying falcon” I don’t think I could step in that line! Lol
I am going to Busch Gardens on Saturday! Friday I leave and Saturday we go to the amusement park. This helps me get ready for the rides I am gonna be facing. Thanks for making the video!
imagine the rollercoaster shutting down as soon as ur on the part waiting for the drop to happen and it never does sp your just stuck in the hangtime position fearing what may come
This was such a rush! My first time at Busch Gardens, that move to stop you right before the first drop had me screaming “WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT?!?!” but it was worth it! 😁😁😁
I love roller coasters so much. Whenever there's a drop, I feel weightlessness, and my face and stomach feel like they will implode from the inside but then after I'm like omg that was awesome I'm gonna do it again lmao
Rode this today with my 13 y/o son. I found the best way to deal with the huge drops is to take a big breath as you're ascending and then exhale on the way down.
I live in Tampa and rode this back in 2008 (9?) First rollercoaster I've ever ridden in my life. Holy crap, but if you can ride this one the rest of the park is easy.
May 2010, My first visit to the states. Even now almost 10 years later i still feel it in my nuts when that damn rollercoster stopped and then the freefall starts.
This is a top 5 roller coaster in the southeast in my opinion. I've been to Carowinds, Six Flags Over Georgia, Universal/Islands Of Adventure, Sea World and this one is easily one of the best. Fury 325 and Intimidator at Carowinds, Goliath at Six Flags Over Georgia and Rip Ride Rockit at Universal are in my top 5 as well in southeast
Omg I rode this ride last week and when you’re all the way up there it feels like 10 minutes. Watching this it’s only like 4 seconds and then a couple hanging straight down but I swear it was a lifetime lmao
hands down AMAZING! fun story: i used to be deathly afraid of roller coasters. i used to cry on air grover. then i decided to ride the slinky dog dash at disney world! i was scared the first time on it, but then we rode again and i had a blast. then i rode space mountain: then when we went to busch gardens, i decided to ride cobras curse. then cheetah hunt. then i rode sheikra. and then montu! yeah i got over my fear
The first drop is A LOT more intense than it looks on camera! The rest of the ride is fun and not scary. That first drop though is so crazy. Besides Iron Gwazi which will open soon, Sheikra is the tallest rollercoaster there.
The first drop felt like 10 minutes of just looking at your impending doom
Does this ride make you sick after?
@@hannahb2383 It didn't make me sick personally
No crap💀 I went on it last summer and almost died ok maybe I didn’t die and nothing really happened but I felt like I was died
I went on the Gwazi and this ride had a way more intense drop! I think the speed of Gwazi minimizes the drop intensity. Although the Gwazi is insane because you don't have a shoulder harness! All you get is a Lap band which makes you feel like you might die the whole time hahaha.
sheikra is smooth as silk, its and incredible coaster
Never been on it. 😁
pipona80 tbh
@@jaydasmores only once i beleive, but you already went now obviously
It doesn't feel that high when it points at the ground.
I thought the very same, smooth sailing, loved it
Stopping the coaster before the drop and letting people face their death is honestly one of the most evil thing in my life
Lol
Thats the best thing of it. All the times i was there, I went for 1st roll on this ride just because of this feeling before the drop. You float for a while with all your body weight pressing doing praying for the belt to not open. Lol and suddenly, u just drop. Def one of my favorites rides ever. Increndible feeling on this drop.
haha...
It doesn't look as steep from the top. That's saying alot coming from me, because I'm scared of heights lol.
It's the best thing lololol,I rode this ride numerous times
Everyone’s saying they hate when their stomachs drop but I think it’s like the best part of every roller coaster
Ikr😂
Agreed. I love that feeling
Sammy TG, I know i love😂😂🤣👍🏼😂
It's a love hate feeling for me

This ride was a nightmare. I felt m soul leave my body.
Airtime
I rode it it was fun
Kayte Larsen I rode falcons fury yesterday and I was shaking till I got to the car
Kayte Larsen I didn’t feel any adrenaline during falcons fury
I rode it and I really wasn’t scared at all
The scariest part of a roller coaster is climbing up the damn thing
Omg I agree
Lmaoo
lol exactly

I Love this ride and I'm not afraid of Heights but the problem is I don't like when my stomach drops 😞

Kirathenote. Same but when I feel sick it helps idk why lol😂😂😂😂
Man i will never forget that ride.....lawd my soul left my body

While you’re hanging, you just regret life, you regret even coming.
Loser :3 i’m going to ride it in a few months with my friend lol, low key scared
Loser :3 try falcons fury :)
, ❤️
❤️❤️
i hate big drops but the rest seems easy and fun. from 1 to 5, 5 being very intense, how bad is the drop?
No matter who you are, there is always a point of regret as you are hanging. Don't lie...
Nope no regrets wasnt rly scary i only got shocked but in a good way i rlly liked it
i love the part where it hangs you because there is sooooooo much anticipation for the drop
That one time when the coaster stopped for a spit second? Yeah!!
Zero regrets. I love it.
Hk
E
I live for the tingle in your stomach when you drop
Me too Im glad Im not the only one XD
Sis no lmao I don't..that's the worst part for me
that doesn’t happen to me any more 😂 cause i go on them so much
I don’t really like when my stomach drops
That’s the worst part for me.. that’s why I dont go on them

I rode it for the first time today and I have to admit, a roller coaster has never made me feel so calm before
Yes, I actually find this ride to be so peaceful for some reason. And it's soooo smooth! I love it
@@SabamnOfficial absolutely. One of my favorites so far
this roller coaster was so terrifying while i was looking at it from afar, but going on it was literally the best experience ever, its so breathtaking and its AMAZING! 10/10 would recommend this roller coaster

Morgan Holloway very true
Yeah I was scared before I went on it
Morgan Holloway How?
Gp life
I can’t believe I picked this for my first big roller coaster! I had no idea what I was getting myself into!
It was also my first big one. But it made it that everything after was never such a big deal😁

You’re afraid of… what? The restraint not opening? The train valleying mid ride?

When you go up, it brings your whole body up
When you're about to go down, the views are awesome
Your stomach drops a little
And the second drop is no stomach drop at all.
And the ride is really quick
The way I got my confidence was riding Kumba
This coaster was the most exhilarating experience of my life! Definitely will ride it again if I ever find myself in Tampa
went on this around sunset and it was so beautiful! definitely my favorite ride atm and would do anything to go back
It’s super smooth with amazing airtime, I rode it with a fear of heights and had a blast.
Best roller coaster in the world!
Air time is unbelievable
Johnny Sheffield Chill it’s just a dive coaster it’s nowhere near the worlds Top 50
I love living in Tampa

I’m scared of heights, just close your eyes on the way up, I opened them at the top and just hanging there was a great feeling. Great ride!
It was really fun but it felt short when I rode it
Madison M right?!? I just rode it a day ago and it seemed so quick compared to montu
Yeah it was short, montu is my favorite ride there
If you think this is short check out Oblivion at Alton Towers. It's made by the same company but you can see how far they've come with this coaster type.
I love you
I went on this, and it was one of the best roller coasters I've ever been on!
The part where it was hanging

I highly recommend this ride! I rode it and was hesitant at first but it ended up to be my favorite ride at Busch Gardens!!!
As a person who rode this 2 times back to back I can say. It's one of the funniest things I've ever done, would ride again.
This looks like an awesome ride, my least favorite part of all roller coasters is when u go up
I am afraid of roller coasters with huge drops but I think I’m starting to get over it because that looked fun

It seems less scary on video, going up then straight down is so frightening

It's still there
I literally thought for a good ten seconds it was called the Shekira
and was like
“OOoO Shekira has her own roller coaster that’s fun n fresh”
Going here in the summer... i'm terrified of heights but my sister will make me ride it wish me luck!
Bella BTS FF its not as scary as it looks I just rode it for the first time today

Fury 325 and Intimidator at Carowinds, Goliath at Six Flags Over Georgia and Rip Ride Rockit at Universal are in my top 5 as well in southeast
That was my first coaster ever it scared me at the giant drop and when it went upside down but that's just my first
I got anxiety from just watching this
Sempre tem brasileiros nesses parques haha
Vim aqui pra ver se achava algum brasileiro comentando sobre isso hahah
I love watching roller coaster videos, but that’s about it 🙅🏽♀️

hands down AMAZING!
fun story:
i used to be deathly afraid of roller coasters. i used to cry on air grover.
then i decided to ride the slinky dog dash at disney world! i was scared the first time on it, but then we rode again and i had a blast. then i rode space mountain:
then when we went to busch gardens, i decided to ride cobras curse. then cheetah hunt. then i rode sheikra. and then montu!
yeah i got over my fear
Them:*make it look so fun and not scary*
