Kemah's Drop Tower Has Arrived

That drop tower is evil.

I have not been scared on a ride in a century. I've never been able to shake a perennial fear freefall rides continue to awaken in me, but I've learned to ignore it because I know I'll have a good time.

.....

I screamed "STOP!!!" just as it did. Never done that on a ride before.

120' seems to be the perfect height for a superbly scary freefall experience, since the higher you go, the more is required for stopping it. I kept waiting .. and waiting for that thing to stop, remembering it wasn't even as high as the observation tower. But it just kept going!

EVILLE!

Was briefly at the park for Winterfest a couple weeks ago, and I took one crack at this. Great intense version of a drop ride and fortunately something different than what's at the nearer parks. Cool view too from up there, much more fun for me than the observation deck.

I rode that drop tower on 3/22 and it is better than those s&s space shots, it was like the old Dungeon Drop all over again.
