The Bat history...if I remembered correctly, The Bat had many operational issues since its 1981 opening and shut down for good after the during the 1983 season, then dismantled in 1985 with the intent of building a new version. Before that happened, Paramount purchased KI and then gave the go ahead to proceed with the build (rebuild) of The Bat, but like the other rides, it would be themed after Paramount films, in this case... Top Gun. When Paramount sold KI to Cedar Fair 2006, Top Gun theme (along with the other Paramount themes) had to be removed by a certain date. Trying to keep with a jet theme, Top Gun was renamed to Flight Deck. In 2014, Flight Deck was repainted and renamed to The Bat celebrating its 30th anniversary of the original The Bat.

I rode the bat when it was running. That was a wild ride with the cars swinging back and forth on certain turns. It was a great ride.

I have severe anxiety which makes it so I can't do thrill rides no matter how much I want too. Thank you for doing vids like this I actually can feel like I'm on there with you without having a panic attack! So thank you so so much:)

My daughter was the same. Before our first theme park I got a coaster game on our VR. If you watch it while sitting your brain actually makes it feel like you’re on the ride. It freaked her out, but she knew she was planted on the chair doing it. She did it a bunch of times & said she was finally ready to try a coaster. We started small with the kiddie ones, then the not so intense woodies. She has now graduated to twisted colossus at Magic Mountain & loves them! Some still freak her out (she refuses to do X2) but for the most part it helped her get over that intense panic.

Banshee looks so smooth, peak engineering right there.

The Orion is hands down the best coaster in kings island! 1. The INSANE DROP 2. The coaster goes SO FAST that it's difficult to keep your eyes open, especially when you're in the front seat I rode this with my twin brother 3 times yesterday and it was that good. I want to go back there for that coaster.

When I was young we went to Kings Island constantly. They used to have a monorail safari ride near King Cobra. For a few years there was a Days of Thunder ride that was just a theater but all the individual seats moved to the view of the cockpit. In front of the Eiffel Tower was a large fountain display. They would let people ice skate when it froze. And the Beast? Hands down the best wooden coaster I have ever ridden in my life and I have ridden many. It's a full on experience. The American Racer was grand also, going in reverse was a blast.

Gotta give a shout out to the BAT! As someone who loves that free-swinging action of suspended coasters (Vortex at CW is my hometown one), the Bat seems to be a fine specimen indeed, twisting and turning through the trees. Also liking the old school traveling nature of the Beast. Thanks Robb!

@@299436083 I can't compare Ninja to the Bat, but at least compared to Vortex I found Ninja to be very slow and tame. Maybe I was unfortunate to be there on a day where the ride was running unusually slow, but I went in ready to be excited and came out very meh.

BEAST IS BEST!!! Years of riding wooden roller coasters across the country and still The Beast is my absolute favorite. Remember riding the engineering debacle, Son of Beast, feeling like my neck had been snapped and my usually fearless sister, in tears. Shout out to The Voyage at Holiday World as #2. Thank you Theme Park Review for bringing us excitement and joy with your vids.

The 540 degree helix at the end of The Beast is still my favorite ending to any coaster I've ever been on. That part never gets old, nor does that ride in general. Mystic Timbers is cool too, but I'll always prefer The Beast.

The Beast... nothing like it. Riding it in the dark is awesome!!!

I love roller coasters. Always have. But I can't ride anymore. So I like these videos. Thanks for publishing it. 👍🏻👍🏻☮️🇺🇸

Doing this video allows people like myself, who have physical limitations that stop us from riding, the chance to enjoy the experience! Not that I was ever a big coaster fan, I’ve ridden a few!! Also kudos to the absolute smoothness of your camera! Thanks again

Ohio! This is the best one ever! Such a clean POV!

The Beast is like a tall cool drink that keeps coming until you are satisfied 🥤🍺

Wonderful footage as always. Thanks!

Orion gave me nightmares/perception overload. I went to bed that night and kept waking up to the feeling of “being pushed in a rollercoaster” out of my bed. I would relive this moment and wake up scared lol

I grew up going here ❤ so glad to see my favorite roller coaster enthusiast cover it!!❤

was so cool seeing representation of The Bat! It doesn't get nearly enough love

the banshee and the beast are my two favorite coasters in the park, i just wish the beast didn’t hurt my neck and back as bad as it does sometimes😭

Best Beast pov. Really captures the shakiness of it

That Orion POV is so smooth!

The Beast. Amazing. I may have to come out of retirement just for that. I live how it goes through the woods.

♥️ Mystic Timbers and The Beast (woodies forever!) 😀

Wish they had added The Racer to this video… true CLASSIC “out and back” racing woodie!

riding The Bat at night in the first row is one of the best things ever.

I remember riding Banshee on a very cold media day!

Orion is one of the smoothest B&Ms I have ridden, and it is easily a top 3 in the park. That makes me wonder if Cedar Point will use the name Polaris for the reimaged Top Thrill Dragster

What an awesome life. Traveling around doing coasters every day. Choice.

Hello TPR. Thank you for another amazing video. I have a question about trip planning. Are there guides to help you that I can find on the net. Transportation, Hotels, and costs for the visit? Thank you in advance.

Banshee and Beast and Mystic Timbers are probably my favorites. yes I know Mystic Timbers is a controversial choice but idc. It's a solid little wooden coaster, weird shed aside.

Great video thanks

9:50 I love how he says we are a family, friendly channel, but he “Holy Shit” in what of his other videos. 💀

Me and my friends go to Kings Island all the time, and these are some of the best rides. I’d also check out The Beast, because it have a great history and it’s also a great ride.

Ohio’s got the best coasters. that’s also my home park

Funny thing is that mystic timbers wouldn’t exist without the beast lol

What? No Racer? The king of airtime.

Great coasters. Theres a fanrastic inverted coaster at Blackpool here in our uk called the Infusion.

Love your commentary!

Hi Robb love the videos keep up the great work !!!!!

Getting closer and closer to SUMMERR!!

That’s why it’s the Beast(Best) baby!! Heck yeah😂

It was Top Gun until Paramount sold the park to Cedar Fair, and then it was flight deck because copyright, then it was the bat.

I am afraid of roller coasters but your enjoyment is exciting

I’m glad he eventually shuts up

I’m actually going today ! I rode all of them 🫶🏻🤪

I remember being scared of the diamond back ride

How do you record on Cedar Fair rides? Pivothead?

The bat is so underrated! its one of my favs

honestly the rides are a little scarry when climing on the first ride and then the dorp is quite scary but after that mid and the fear doesnt come back

Years ago I went on Space Mountain which was inside in the dark, then went on the Matterhorn & that was it, is back in the 1970's

So lucky this is my home park :D

Have yall been to Carowinds yet? I'm looking through your videos and haven't seen any yet from Carowinds.

Banshee is my faviroite roller coaster during 2023

It seems to be a speed at a different level here.

Love your content..I love watching videos...can u make a video on riding every single roller coaster and other rides on IMG Worlds of Adventure, Dubai

Rob: *says the channel is family-friendly* Also Rob: *swears in some of his videos*

My home park has an Arrow Dynamica Coaster just Like The Bat. It’s called Ninja. It was built in 1988 at Six Flags Magic Mountain.

There is actually a Great Wolf Lodge resort right next to this theme park.

I might go to Cincinnati Reds game in Cincinnati this summer and then I'm going to kings island to try to ride all the roller coasters

Orion is easily the best rode in the park followed by diamond back

I’ve written all those roller coasters, except for Orion

I wish the lift hill was that fast when i last rode it

Not gonna hate but if this is from two months ago then why might Vortex (defunct) be standing in the background (13:52). I have gone to Kings Island forever and it disappoints me the fact that you would do this because this shows that the Beast recording was over 3 years old.

I'm not on every ride. Sometimes when we do a park as a "group trip" and we are filming in the morning before the park opens, I"ll put the camera on the front of the train and let other people ride. It's possible, for example, that we only had a couple of runs, so I would mount the camera in the front, and them myself ride in the back with the handheld. I don't remember if that's exactly what happened here but it's possible.

The only thing this park needs to round out the collection is another looping coaster at least on the level of Banshee. Maybe a gimmick coaster like a spinner or wing.
