The massive 335-foot tall drop tower known as Falcon’s Fury has finally officially opened at Busch Gardens Tampa.

After months of delays and a whole lot of testing, today the theme park announced the new ride is officially open, following a few weeks of soft opening.

Falcon’s Fury drops riders 60mph straight down. At the ride’s highest point, riders pivot 90 degrees in midair to a face-down dive position. An instant later, riders take the plunge.
