Description And Comments

Rides such as Doctor Doom's Fear Fall are staples of amusement parks around the world. Sixteen people (who should know better) are strapped into a set of seats attached to one of two steel towers. The seats sit atop a large air cannon, which, when fired, propels everyone 200 feet straight up the tower, at 40 miles per hour. You fall back almost as fast before bouncing up again, and this happens a couple of times before you're let gently back down. You get off, kiss the ground and vow never again to leave its warm embrace. Okay, its not that bad — you get a really nice view of IOA and the Orlando area, and the initial launch is pretty fun.

As with Storm Force Accelatron, there's supposed to be a story with Fear Fall, something along the lines of Dr. Doom needing to collect your fear for his nefarious plans. We don't think anyone notices.

Touring Tips

One of the slowest-moving lines at IOA. See first thing in the morning, after Harry Potter, Dragon Challenge, Spider-Man and Hulk.
