The insane Gyro Drop ride is coming to Disney World. The ride starts by bringing people up 400 feet in the air. Then, slowly the rider’s seats drop out from the main center ring.

After that, they start spinning around like a chair swing at the top of the ride. This is by far the most intense chair swing ride ever made. After spinning around for a few seconds, the chairs merge back into the center.

The ride then drops the passengers all 400 feet, back to the ground. This is a similar free fall to the Tower of Terror, but is double the height of the drop, making it far more intense. The Gyro Drop is often considered one of the scariest and most dangerous rides in the world.

However, Disney wants to bring it to their theme parks to grow their thrill ride portfolio. Bringing a ride like this to their park is a great way to quickly build something thrilling since it has already been done once before. This helps them increase their ride capacity, thus driving wait times down across the park.

The Gyro Drop will be themed to The Green Army Men from Toy Story and will be added to Toy Story Land in Hollywood Studios. Despite this exciting announcement, many people are terrified of this ride saying that they would never ride it.

Disney hopes that the ride attracts more thrill seekers to their parks, which is a huge consumer segment they often miss out on.
