Anybody else think the world is a better place because we have someone with mutton chops that wears a pork pie hat and provides roadside attraction and theme park videos?!? The world needs more characters.

And always a happy go lucky attitude. Very rare for him to get serious , only when he has to, but 99% of time, he is a happy guy who is enjoying his life !!! And most of us are not able to do what he does because we have to work a crummy job !!!! He makes videos that make everyone smile 😃

That's one of my favorite rides

A friend of mine works as a restoration painter there full time. So much there is hand painted and hand maintained like it was when it first opened. In the "Mining Museum" there is a book of injuries and deaths that is absolutely wild. The 1000 piece puzzle was made by my friend and he hooked me up with one and some of the 50th anniversary tickets. Totally neat of him.

Hey carpetbagger! Your 50th anniversary Knoebels video was the first one I’ve watched on your channel and I’ve watched ever since! So glad to be here and watch your adventures back there again!

Jacob, you screaming NO on the Twister made me laugh so hard I choked on my own spit and damn near peed myself. I had to run to the bathroom! Also swan's are no joke. An adult swan's wing can hit with the force of a baseball bat.

How about his reaction on The Twister? That was the most legit scream ever...he had me laughing so hard. He's a nice change to youtube 😃

Throughout this video, I definitely had to lower the volume of my TV, he screams so much and it was so loud. Sometimes I can’t believe he’s that scared. But I’ve been watching him for a long time so I always know what to expect and I enjoy it actually, he’s one of the best if not the best Amusement Parks and haunts KZreadr. And many other places he goes just intrigues me and I’m so glad to have him. He’s such a cool guy even though he does scream a lot lol. ❤

Your scene footage really showcased the park nicely. Well done editing.

There are a lot of nice comments this time! I love sharing thoughts with positive people. It makes up for the vlogs when, for some reason, the jerk bus lets out.

The only way to get over your fears, is to face them head on! You're doing great Jacob. Keep up the good work, we all need you!

Hi Jacob it was really nice to meet you at the park your such a nice guy have a great day

Carpetbagger RULES!

What a great chair lift ❤

Hi Jacob...Just went back in memory of my youth when us kids were guests at Euclid Beach amusement park on Lake Erie. There, too, was a wooden coaster ride called "Flying Turns". I cannot attest that Knoebel's purchased the ride, but it was definitely similar!

My hubby from another room, ‘what’s going on in there!’ Oh that’s just Jacob @ 27:08 having fun on the Twister! 😆🎢 okay turn it down! 🤣 ha ha ha that was fun tho 😂

Our family stayed at the Getaway cottage on property a few years ago for my sons birthday. It was absolutely incredible to make breakfast and walk over to the park and hop right on Phoenix or anything else. There were days during the week where we had the park pretty much to ourselves. I loved finding weird quirky rides like the Slide, the Cosmotron, and the Satellite. I still have the iron fire poker I bought from the blacksmith shop. Super fond memories of that park and I would love to go back some day.

Jacob I've been watching you for years, bought your shirts, support you on Patreon, bought a Cameo, some pins and of all the places you've been and rides you've shown, the FLYING TURNS footage was the absolute BEST!!! The camera was perfectly mounted, the video was crystal clear, we could hear you perfectly, and the POV was perfection!!!! I love every one of your videos and look forward to watching your latest adventures every day!!!! Thank you yet again for sharing it with us all!

Ah, this brings back great memories. I used to take my son here when we lived in Allentown, PA LOVE Knobels

I always enjoy your visits to the excellent Knoebels park. Thanks so much for taking us along today. I like the Black Diamond dark ride. You were very brave to ride Twister and the other scary rides.

I went Herr as a little girl ❤ it's about time to go back. Thanks for all you do for us Jacob.✌️❤️🙂

A beautiful view and the boat is a calming experience for the dark rides later 😂

Just figured I let ya know because of you my daughter who’s 14 and I went to the rainy day revival and it was amazing I bought a few things garbage pale kids cards included lol but we will definitely go to the museum when it opens I mentioned I saw your video and that’s how I found them and they said they love you lol but thanks for it we loved it

I miss going to Knoebels.when i lived in pa i would go at least 3 or 4 times a summer as it was only about 90 minutes from where i lived.thanks for the video

Bro I was there on Sunday and saw that goat. My entire group didn’t believe me until til they saw it later on in the day.

The cottages that you commented on over by the Twister...those are members of the Knoebel family that reside there for the summer while the park is in operation...the cottages at the rear of the park can be rented out.

Back in the day the feed me paper pig was connected to a vacuum system and it would suck the paper in. I've been going here since I was a little kid camping with my parents and I still make sure to make it up at least once every year for a day and I'm in my 50's now. By far the best amusement park in my book!

Those rides look fun! Love that twister coaster, and both dark rides. Old school amusement park. 😀

Hi Jacob 😊 My fiance and I drove past the exit for Knoebels yesterday and something made me think of you. We should have gone there, but we ended up hiking Ricketts Glen and all 21 waterfalls 🙂

I saw you at Knoebels last year and said Hi to you. Knoebels is my happy place. My family is taking me to Knoebels for Moter's Day. I can't wait. I enjoy your videos from theme parks all over the country.

I think ive said but my dad was a coal miner from Shamokin. When we were little he would take us to visit family and we'd go to knoebels about once a year and also Hershey park. ❤

We / I thank you for going on the wooden coasters it takes me back to the 1950s and Chicago’s Riverview Amusement and their coasters!

Have a wonderful day, Jacob ❤️

That bumper car seen was wonderful!!! Loved your enthusiasm!

Hey Jacob, you need one of those Lion water fountains for your house!

We go to Knoebels every fathers day, been going to Knoebels for 50 years now… Wow where does time go???

I had fun right along with you, thank you

Carpet Bagger Really channeled his inner Chris Farley on the Twister Ride there.... LOL truly couldn't resist laughing at his sheer terror while at work! Thanks for the Laugh!

i was operatoing the flying turns i saw you getting off i wanted to get a picture with you buddy

So happy the chair lift is in operation again this year!!!

Greatest KZreadr on the planet

Oh darn, we just missed you. I have always hoped to run into you at Knobles

26:14 i give the roller coaster commentary a 10/10. 😂

Have been there twice and the last time was about 5 years ago.We drove up from the state you live in to the park.We told Dick Knoebel it took us 8 hrs to get there.He looked shocked.We loved the FlyingTurns the most. I think there was a ride like this at old Coney Island in the old days.I know there was a similar ride at Efteling in the Netherlands.It closed in 2019.We like the small but rough Kozmo's Kurves.We also loved the Phoenix.Did you see Harry and Hattie the Eagles in the back?

Oh this is the video I just wanted to see! ❤ I love Knoebels and I especially love when carpetbagger goes to Knoebels!

I like that they have unusual rides and it is such a nice park. I’m not a fan of riding coasters but I admire your courage and enjoy watching you ride, I can “ride” with you without anxiety-ridden terror. Wonderful video 😊

Knoebels is such a great themepark concept. Love it jacob 😍

Love your thrill enthusiasm, Mr Jacob. Cheers!

If you want to know when one of those pedulum style rides are going to flip upside down, look for the counterweight on top. If it doesnt have one, it will only swing from side to side. Physics!

The flying turn reminds me of a bobsled! The tilt a whirl and the Whip too!! 2 of my favourite rides!

That was so much fun, thank you Jacob. You had your camera in the perfect angle for the rides, not to shakey.. you know. :))

Jacob has perfected his craft to the degree that he could teach courses on vlogging if he wanted to.

Mt Twister was the first roller coaster I ever rode when I was 9 years old...and un like you Jacob, I was hooked after that first ride. I LOVE roller coasters thanks to Mr Twister.

Morning saved by Jacob!

I absolutely loved your reaction to The Twister 🤣🤣"this is a mixture of emotions🤣 and it was a flood of emotions for me as well, My family would go there every year, I'm originally from Pennsylvania and My Husband and I just moved to Tennessee so this was a nice video, my gosh the memories I have 😊 I saw you on Omars channel when you guys went to the prison for your Fort Night battle. Looking forward to seeing what else you have in store and watching your other videos.

Thanks for the fun time

good morning everyone!

Last time I went on the Twister I ended up getting a kidney stone attack the next day. It’s been 5 years and I don’t want to get back on it in fear of it doing that again lol

Love this video! Knoebels is my favorite amusement park. It’s my escape from reality every summer. Can’t wait to go again this year. Hope you got to try some of the new foods they have. Thanks for taking us along.

Great video Jacob that park looks great. Looking forward to the next take care my friend and safe travels as always.

thank you for feeding my Knoebels hyperfixation

Hey Jacob! Thank you for sharing this amazing event! I just loooooove when you visit amusement parks and get on the rides!❤❤😂😂 I have to visit Knobles! Looks like so much Fun!!!

Used to go there as a kid like twice a summer. Was a great place to visit.

I love the floating skull room in the Haunted Mansion ride!

I live at least 3 hours north of Knoebels. Last time I went was in July/2021

Morning Jacob 🤓📸 have fun. Take care. Screaming at the rollercoaster 🎢 lol

love your infectious laughter!!!😂😂😂

The Black Diamond was an awesome dark ride, and it was long also

My friend mentioned he was going to Knoebels so I thought I would check for videos you had done there and sure enough! It looks like a fun place, hope my friend likes it (he’s crazy when it comes to rollercoasters)

Thank you Jacob, for a really cool view. Nice amusement park especially cause its old school love that

I love Knoebels

I grew up going here, and still do. It's the best! I actually got dizzy watching you on Flying Turns!
