That first drop is something else, it’s so much G-force that it completely takes you by surprise, yet the ride is smooth like butter. It’s definitely my #1 favorite!
Have to say this is filmed gorgeously! The exposure to get that sky just right, while maintaining that gorgeous saturated blue of the track! Incredible job!
This ride was FUN! It was my very first dive coaster experience. I got on it with my niece and cousin at night while the fireworks were going off. Quite a nice view at the top! But that drop...OMG. I rode this roller coaster twice. It was even more fun the second time and the best way to end the night! I thought I wasn't going to be able to get on it as earlier, it got stuck at the top. Those people were up there for two hours before they were able to get down. I'm glad the ride was up and running again before we left the park. I rate Griffon as number two out of my top 3 at Busch Gardens!
I remember going to the park just yesterday and this was the first ride i went on while i was trying to face my fears. I then went to alpengeist for my second. It was so much fun the 2nd drop wasnt wxpected at ALL. It really feels like you are about to fall out
man i remember the last time i was at this park, there was either supposed to be rain and there wasn't or there was rain in the morning that stopped, but either way the park was pretty much deserted. so i got to ride the griffon something like 10 times in a row- front row everytime. what a blast!! i'd love to come back someday
i went on this yesterday and it was an EXPERIENCE. please know yall that you will be TERRIFIED going up but just sit through it because after the first drop its amazing
I’m going here in a few days and I have never ridden a roller coaster and tbh I don’t rly want too, but I also wanna get over my fear, what order should I ride the coasters here?
This coaster looks like Yukon Striker from Canada Wonderland. The same station and its platform (bellow the feet). The same gate. The same first hill and that part where the coaster goes to the top and it turns to the right side and the coaster breaks and then it comes the first drop (after a few seconds).
Believe it or not, this drop is smaller than the apollos chariot drop. I am also horrified of coasters and neither of these are that bad! They’re really smooth and I think you’ll be surprised by them!
just rode FRONT SEAT after lady took my seat in backrow… so either miss the ride wit da boys or ride alone up front…. atleast i can say i rode it front row….TERRIFIED but… i dod it. after first drop it gets better , amazing ride
I hate this coaster im legit terrified of heights i love Loch Ness Alpengeist Verbolten but this ride terrifies me that initial drop i feel my soul leave my body at least Loch Ness doesnt hang u
I'm 39 years old been going to busch since the 80s riding every coaster they had. This one is over the top I rode with my 17 year old daughter I truly felt like I was about to have a heart attack from the butterflies each drop seems like it takes an eternity .on top of feeling like I was gonna die we went to the photo booth afterwards and my dead great grandmother's face appeared in place of my daughter's face in the picture sitting right next to me totally freaked me out never will ride again. If u have fear of heights back problems or weak stomach or any heart problems or if the buttflies hurt you this is not the one for you I promise
The lady who said, "I hate you" right before the first drop... I felt that. 😅
Lol
And she said "oh fuck this, you're dead to me" on the second one lmao
I think that was me 😅
@@Melody-ks4mvdont lie to us!!
@@briana2706 I thought she said, "bitches! Fuck sticks!" Haha 😅
This is my favorite roller coaster ever. I don't think I've ever ridden a coaster that is any smoother than this one.
my second favorite dive coaster!
alpengeist HAS to be my favorite but this is my second one
What about the alpengiest
@@Bigmonkevr20 that one hurts my head and makes me go blind for 3 seconds 😭
@@hello_everyponysame. I LOVE Alpengeist but that ride is the reason I need to start bringing aspirin with me to BG
Great POV of Griffon! It's great that we got 5K Camera for POV ride throughs! Hopefully we might see some more!

This damn ride. I ALWAYS let out an involuntary WHOO on the first dive. I love it.
Those ladies are having a blast lmao
they like scream before the ride starts
@@boltgaming248so would i
Rode this yesterday!!!! SO SMOOTH best coaster I've ever been on!
Best ride ever. I was nervous at first but the drop didn’t feel too bad on my stomach at all. Wish the ride was longer
Pin this comment rn so real
Wtf ya all wanna get heart attack or something
Looks great with what seems a fresh coat of paint!
not me (a person TERRIFIED of roller coasters) preparing to ride this by watching a pov.
You and me both 💀💀
Good luck😅
POVs unfortunately are nowhere near what you experience when actually on the ride.
@@PrincessSnowbelle Yessss fr 😂 when I went on the Batman ride at six flags. It looked larger than what it was on POV
this is literally me rn
They sounded so scared before the drop then were all laughing at the end. This ride is amazing
That’s the magic of roller coasters!
probably my favorite ride at busch gardens!! that drop is so much fun
Yes!
explains your username... or just a coincidence?

i remember waiting in line for this with my dad and uncle petrified and then i ended up loving this
This was my Bestie’s first ever coaster credit.
The Coca Cola forced them to say aahhhhhhhhh 1:29
Love my hometown park. This is my sons favorite and hes just 10. Alpengiest is mine and my daughters
"Your dead to meeeeeeeeee" I am dying 😂😂
“You’re dead to meeee aaaaahhhhh!!”
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
That part, too funny. 🤣🤣
This is my FAVORITE ride ever!!!!

Pass.
Also, why is there no railing on the right staircase?
I live in Virginia and I am tiny so when I got to the hight to ride griffin the day I found out I was on it ,it is so smooth and I love it soooo much
Nothing freaks out the GP like a good B&M Dive
I think this opens in a couple of days and I can't wait!
It got a repaint???
This was actually my first coaster I rode on
definitely the best dive coaster :p
Favorite ride there!
I’ve been on a lot of coasters but this POV is one of the most panic-inducing
The griffin is my favorite ride I rode 7 times yesterday
"Gryffindor!" I heard someone shout.
i went on this yesterday and it was an EXPERIENCE. please know yall that you will be TERRIFIED going up but just sit through it because after the first drop its amazing
Yo same fun asf
The first drop was one of the worst things I've experienced in my life. We were front two going up was so scary
@@mathmagician155 im ngl i love the feeling when my stomach drops lmaoo
@sp4c3y I'm the opposite I hate drops I just love the adrenaline from roller coasters
@@mathmagician155 sounds like ur an adrenaline junkie
similar concept to Sheikra
There is an exact same ride at Busch gardens Tampa Bay called SheiKra it's the exact same thing as Griffin butt red just as scary
Skeikra came first in 2005, and 2 years before Griffon was built in 2006-2007, Griffon is 2 seconds longer.
Dive coasters are just crazy man
I’m pretty sure we’ll have the 12K POV in a few years.
I’m going here in a few days and I have never ridden a roller coaster and tbh I don’t rly want too, but I also wanna get over my fear, what order should I ride the coasters here?
A good starter would be Lochness Monster. That's how I did it.
What did ya end up riding
@@tanyatanya8325 I ended up riding Loch Ness Monster, InvadR, Verbolten, Apollo's Chariot, and this beast. The mythical Griffon.
star with lochness
U DESERVE MORE LIKES

The same first hill and that part where the coaster goes to the top and it turns to the right side and the coaster breaks and then it comes the first drop (after a few seconds).
Ah I've checked and Griffon and Yukon were built by the same manufacturer. This is why these rides are alike in most parts.
OMG!! 😱😱
It's scary.. Wowwww...
It's the best coaster I've ever been on. It's so smooth and the drop feeling is intense but addictive.
People when they realize not everyone likes rollercoasters but they wanna face their fears
As a non roller coaster person, this was my favorite. I got the honor to ride it. IT IS SCARY but it is fast too. So awesome
Where is everybody? On the drop hold I only see like 5 people walking around... :-0
Speed: 71 mph
Riding this next Saturday
The lady who said oh boy.. Really got me 💀
Guys I’m scared of coasters I need advice should I go on this next week when I go or should I keep it more simple with Apollo what you guys think?
Face ur fears and ride it , you’ll realize how fun it is once you get off and you’ll wanna ride again!
@@Fishyyy_ okay thanks 😊
Believe it or not, this drop is smaller than the apollos chariot drop. I am also horrified of coasters and neither of these are that bad! They’re really smooth and I think you’ll be surprised by them!
Griffon looks like Shiekra's bigger, blue sister 😆
Short and the same two loops... But ok there's a stop before drop.
@@sweetsunnyvibes oblivion clones don't have the vertical drop but it was 87° downwards
That’s tragic as shit hahaha those ladies were struggling
I can never go on the griffon I’m ways to scared but my brother and sister could
1:48 I swear that lady say "You're dead to MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE"
Awesome ride
Dynamite ride. Quick Que. rode it 3 times straight 🤘🏼
I love Busch Gardens.
드라켄이다!
1:24 heard someone said “I hate you”.
The lift hill took longer than ride itself...
I went on this and it’s awesome I wanted to ride it again 😀
I just did this ride today I love it so much gonna ride it 3 more times tomorrow
Best coaster there
You should do a video on the #RIDETHEFIVE challenge in may! Tip: use quick queue
Huge carousel, holds 30 people
1:21 POV of Great Adventure’s attendance next season
FR💀💀💀
Just went on this a few minutes ago it was hella fun
just rode FRONT SEAT after lady took my seat in backrow… so either miss the ride wit da boys or ride alone up front…. atleast i can say i rode it front row….TERRIFIED but… i dod it.
after first drop it gets better , amazing ride
it looks a liiiittle bit boring but it has a few cool elements I feel like sheikra and valravn have better layouts
The video is good but doesn't do it justice. You have to physically experience this ride.
I would love this
The starting looks exactly like Canada’s Wonderland Yukon Striker..
Looks alot like valravan
I will never ride this. You could not pay me enough money to go on this.
cool
I think that. KAOASTER kids has ride these ride in 2016 to 2019
koaster kids has ride these in 2016 to 2018
this kinda reminds me of fury 325?
This is nothing like fury ur weird asl
it isn't
@@boltgaming248 I know
@@Sam-u7j but why would fury have inversions
@@boltgaming248 idk
I'm here early
That break run in the middle pisses me OFF lol
I felt sick just watching this
I rode that today as a first timer in the third row but ima go in first
Ur dead to meeeeeeeeee😂
nobody else gets on that's me
I hate this coaster im legit terrified of heights i love Loch Ness Alpengeist Verbolten but this ride terrifies me that initial drop i feel my soul leave my body at least Loch Ness doesnt hang u
Thank god this dont run in fall or people would freexe getting soaked
My father offered $100 to get on this ride. I said no.
Man you should’ve took that money 😭 it’s so fun
This ride is literally the same thing as sheikra only 5 feet taller
Sheikra is better
If you’re not riding front row you’re not riding the griffon

I know as they get older.The ride gets rougher
This ride is mighty smooth.Appolo's Chariot is might smooth too
apollos chariot is super fun!
