Berserker (4K Off-Ride) Kings Dominion

Berserker swinging boat ride at Kings Dominion in Doswell, Virginia, USA.
Operated since 1984.
Imagine that you are a Viking. You are among the brave, adventurous raiders and traders sailing the northern European seas. Your home is a large ship subject to the whims of Mother Nature - scathing winds and gnarly waves toss it up, down, and all around. Plus, you’re stuck with lots of other Vikings for long stretches of time. Certainly a life for only the most courageous and fearless.
Our replica Viking ship, Berserker, doesn’t need a sail and isn’t dependent on the wind and waves, but its passengers need the same courage and fortitude as the Vikings had. This vessel swings back and forth in a pendulum motion, gaining speed and altitude with each cycle. Eventually, it reaches the top of the 360-degree loop and pauses, suspending riders upside down for a breathless moment before completing its rotation. The swinging continues until gravity runs its course and you’re on shore again.

    This and those Tasmanian devil rides dont look that fast but when you are on them, they surprise you. I think I got more belly flops from these than actual rollercoasters.

    I love roller coasters and any theme park or carnival ride I've ever been on but this ride had me ballin when I went on it for the first and last time as a teenager some 15 years ago. Didn't it used to completely stop upside down? Or has my memory just been trying to give me some justification for crying all these years? 😄

    They don’t control when the ride flips upside down they just control the acceleration so sometimes it gets stuck for a few seconds, sometimes it doesn’t.

    Go on all the rides at Busch gardens Williamsburg. You'll see how much better they are to this coaster. This one I think people should go on first if they've never been on any roller coaster ever. Then go on a roller coaster (not the wooden ones) and you'll see that the coasters aren't so bad. I use to be scared of them when I was a kid. Went to Busch gardens Williamsburg as a kid, as a 28 year old woman not anymore ❤️😂

    i use to be so scared of this ride but last oct my friend came up with a way to get me on it. it was oct and halloween. she dared me to wear one of her outfits and go on it, ( outfit was her leather leggings , a silk top , her leather jacket and a pair of her leather boots ) so wearing her outfit i walked up to ride and got on. i pulled the shoulder bar down and then the lap bar locked me in. no turning back now. i was scared. friend said look at me wearing her clothes. i laughed and did the ride.
