Hey there. Ready for another “Rode It! Loved It!” (my reviews of established attractions that are exclusively for paid subscribers)? Let’s drop in on Busch Gardens Tampa and check out the record-breaking Falcon’s Fury. It’s an intense, wildly thrilling tower ride. If you aren’t a paid subscriber, watchya waitin’ for? Kindly consider upgrading and joining the wonderful group of folks who support my work and get bonus features like “Rode It! Loved It!” Have you noticed that there are no ads of any kind here at About Theme Parks? It’s true. Paid subscriptions are my only source of income, so how about helping a journalist out?

3.5 (out of 5)

At 335 feet, Falcon’s Fury is quite an imposing site on the midway at Busch Gardens Tampa. It takes the record for the tallest freestanding drop tower ride in North America. Yes, the 415-foot-tall Lex Luthor: Drop of Doom at Six Flags Magic Mountain is taller, but its tower is connected to an existing coaster structure. Regardless, Falcon’s Fury has an, um, killer feature that cuts Lex Luthor down to size.
