Panic Plunge is a drop tower in the Roller Coaster Alley area of Silverwood Theme Park in Athol, Idaho. Built by A.R.M. and Larson International, it opened in 2006.
Riders are lifted slowly up the 140-foot tower and then released, falling 120 feet at up to 47 mph before brakes slow the seats to a gentle stop near the ground.
Riders must be at least 48 inches tall.
