A Drop Tower is an amusement park ride designed to give riders a thrilling experience of free fall. It typically consists of a tall vertical structure where passengers are secured in a seat. The ride lifts them to a significant height before suddenly dropping them down, creating a sensation of weightlessness for a brief moment. These rides use a combination of gravity and advanced braking systems to ensure safety. Many Drop Towers are found in theme parks around the world, often featuring different heights and speeds to cater to various thrill-seekers. Popular examples include the Tower of Terror and Intimidator 305.
