It will be interesting to see how they change Lightning Rod. Seeing as its getting a bunch of I-Box track and some other changes, "lightning strikes twice?"
The Smoky Mountains are astonishingly beautiful too. Such a great area to hang out in.

The theme of this trip so far has been high expectations with “low return on investment “, especially with the RMC’s. Sean and Alex are so excited right before the coasters and then they cut to a review with less than stellar remarks. Shame that they aren’t getting the best experiences they’ve anticipated on. I’m sure some of it has to be that they’ve ridden so many coasters in such a short period of time that they’re probably desensitized to some capacity. And also the wear and tear on their bodies aren’t conducive to their energy, which will most likely reduce their enjoyment from time to time. In terms of roughness, I always thought Sean loved a somewhat rough ride, especially woodies. Too bad the roughness on LR wasn’t his cup of tea. Speaking of which, I don’t know how he enjoyed Magnum XL 200 so much. That is the 2nd roughest coaster I’ve ever been on, right behind Coney Island’s Cyclone. It was so uncomfortable and rough I hated it with a passion. Ultimately, ride experiences are essentially unique from person to person and can vary from one time to the next, so of course they’re entitled to their opinions. Here’s to hoping for some more consistently positive outcomes for the rest of the trip.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts, I enjoyed day two much more and felt great!
You really should have put more rest days into this. The trip could of cost a little more but think of how much more you would have enjoyed it. Still you likely know that now. You are human and not a machine. Dollywood is one of the best family parks in the USA. The setting, theming, shows and atmosphere are what makes this park special. If you go into the smoky's to get away from normal life, have fun, get back to nature and enjoy a unique day out here you are in for treat. The coasters are nothing special. If you are doing just a flyby and do not stop to absorb the local area Dollywood would disappoint. A week in smoky's is unforgettable experience and a bit of Dollywood is just the cream on top. Congrats on the 1000 cred.

We definitely needed more rest throughout however we did still manage to complete the trip! Luckily I felt much better on day two of Dollywood.
I was so anxious during Shawn’s lengthy preamble before getting on Lightning Rod. All I could think of was “That coaster can seriously go down at any moment and totally wreck your milestone. Hurry up and get on!!!!” 😂

Brett saying Alex is a perfect 10 was cute . I think all three of you score 10 to be honest. Shawn you work so hard ! I do hope that you feel much better now . Please pace yourself . I burnt out at 24 with too much overtime and ended up with M.E . Listen to your body . I love Brett’s Lancashire accent . Sometimes when I’m watching your v logs I wonder if the pleasure will never end .

I noticed this pattern throughout. On rare well rested days, they tended to love the parks, even the lesser ones, and on the less rested days they tended to be critical. Watch the whole playlist with that pattern in mind and you’ll see it pretty consistently.
Wow Shawn what a milestone very proud of you and thanks for so many great vlogs!

Dollywood is my literal favorite place on earth! I grew up 30 minutes from it, so I have been more times than I can count haha
Congratulations shawn on your 1000th coaster amazing achievement. Great vlog guys xxxx
I've really been enjoying these American vlogs Shawn! I will say though that if there is a theme running constant from the start of the trip till now, its got to be the cloud of slight disappointment that keeps hanging over you guys. I understand the cough, the long miles from park to park, Alex's toe, etc but something just seems a little off from your other videos. Like I said, still having a blast watching. Waking up and seeing a notification from TPWW on the USA trip each morning gets me hyped for the day and to watch.

For the longest time i had a fear of roller coasters (due to a major fear of heights) and within the last couple years I've started to slowly overcome that fear with the coasters. (Went on all the coasters at both state side disney parks with expedition Everest being my current number 1 coaster) amd hoping to slowly work my way up to not being so afraid of the G forces on launch coasters so i can experience those without my eyes closed and working my way up to go on coasters that have a high lift hill. Seeing you reach coaster credit 1,000 is very inspiring to me. Thank you for all the vlogs and keep on riding

I haven't done more than 100 coasters, because the older I get, the more I am afraid of heights... However! I visited Walibi Holland and I went on Untamed with my 5 year old son and this coaster is incredible!!! I bought Fast Lane for the 2 of us, because it was running on one train and the waiting-time was more than 1,5 hours. Next week I will be in Bobbejaanland, to test Fury and I will be going to the funfairs at Tilburg and Uden in Noord Brabant! In Tilburg Air from Danters is the standout ride and in Uden there is Devils Rock, Mr. Beat, Magic and new for 2019: Fire Ball. Love your USA trip vlogs!

Definitely sad you and Alex came away from Dollywood a little underwhelmed. I will say, as a frequent Disney and Dollywood visitor, Dollywood is often held to a higher standard than other U.S parks just because of Dolly’s backing. The fact is, Dollywood (as a park) isn’t at the level in terms of investment, attractions, entertainment, food, theming; as say Disney or Universal; and unfortunately Dollywood is often compared to these powerhouses. I like to compare Dollywood to Animal Kingdom. Both parks are great, and are finally expanding; with Pandora in Animal Kingdom, and Dollywood investing in Lighting Rod and Wildwood Grove, but both parks NEED to continue with large investments to get them up to actual “full day parks”. From what I’ve heard from some Dollywood sources, this park has some pretty promising expansions and investments in the future. Personally I would like to see Dollywood go more towards the theme park side of things, add an actual dark like (maybe trackless) and focus more on heavily themed environments.
