Does anyone know where there is a Demon Drop type ride besides CP?
-------------
CP Rocks!
I thought SFO (when it was Geauga Lake) had one: Mr. Hyde's Nasty Fall -- but it wasn't as high.

I think all of the Intamin 1st generation free-falls (Demon drop, Mister Hydes Nasty Fall, etc..) are all the same height.

The Samurai has spoken.
I think there is one at Universal Studios, but I forget what it is called.
Tower of Terror is similar. A difference is it has like 2 or 3 rows of seats w/ only lapbars. You can't see the structure but it might be like Demon Drop's. Anybody know??

Tower of Terror is more like and elavotor than a 1st Gen. Free fall. Most all of the Six Flags parks have one, SFGa, SFMM, SFoT, etc.

"Your obssesed w/ that place aren't you?"
The defunct Rocky Point Park in Rhode Island had one before they closed. Does anyone know what became of that one? Is that where Geauga Lake got Mr. Hyde?
Universal in FL does not have 1.They have a Power Tower type ride.
Paramonts Great America had one but replaced it. It was called The Edge. The only thing left is a rock with the Logo on it

Number 1 And Only Cedar Point.
O.K., lets get this strait. I live right next to the attractions in FL so I know. First, Universal Studios does not have any ride like that, their sister park Islands of Adventure has a space shot. Tower of Terror is not a freefall, it gets pushed down. SFMM does have a 1st generation freefall ride. Any questions?

I think that Demon Drop is the best ride in the park, gets my stomach every time!!!!!!!!!!!!!
CP, SFO, SFoG, SFMM, SFoT all have 1st gen freefalls. SFO's was at Rocky Point which was at SFGAm. I never knew of PGA's, but based on the time period SFGAm had The Edge (early 80's), I would not be surprised if the California park in fact had one.

The Edge IS Mr. Hyde's Nasty Fall...same ride, moved cross country.

Six Flag's Great Adventure in Jackson, NJ has one. I believe they call it the Stuntman's Freefall. It's a mirror image of the demon drop.
CPGONEDISNEY is right -- Hollywood Tower of Terror is a Power-Tower-type -- if you listen really close, you can hear the air compressors in a couple spots.
