We rode monster coaster Iron Gwazi at Busch Gardens and lived to tell

And that’s why the roller coaster Iron Gwazi at Busch Gardens, which officially opens next month, is the most anticipated coaster in the country among adrenaline junkies. It was called “America’s most terrifying new roller coaster” by the New York Post.

Passholder previews started earlier this month for the fastest hybrid coaster in North America, which is the steepest of its kind in the world.
