The ride has a very steep drop. Partway down there is a mean trick where the track steepens again to the max angle of 85 degrees...A horrifying moment for those unprepared for it, with only the lap bar holding you in place.

The lift system works by having a small sled attached to a loop of cable, The sled runs on a smaller track in the middle of the main track. The sled is moved into position beneath the train at the bottom. The train hooks on, and is hauled to the top and over the apex, where it is able to disengage and head down the drop.

The ride reaches a height of 61m. Trains are brought to the top rapidly by a cable lift system that blurs the lines between lift hill and launch.

Yes, that is a bird living life on the edge by nesting over a fan in Skyrushes station.

Riders are held in with an overhead lap bar that rests on the thighs.

The ride features an evolution of Intamins "wingrider" seating, first seen on Furius Baco at PortAventura. The riders in the middle have a floor beneath them, whilst those on the outside hang off the sides, with their legs dangling.

The latest and greatest (At the time of writing), and easily the most intense ride at Hersheypark is Skyrush, an Intamin hyper coaster.
