My mom said the exact thing last year before we went.

We met a young woman at Kennywood last year that had 3 kids with her, the oldest being about 5 yrs old. The little girl asked me if I liked Little Phantom and I told her I haven't been on it because I'm too scared. She said "I'll ride it with you. You won't be scared". Her mother & my wife agreed it would be "cute". That's how I got my Little Phantom credit. And ironically it has more room than most adult coasters.

In fairness to the cutting wires question, I think they are referring to traveling carnivals where wires powering the rides are clumped together, and then go across the midway to reach power sources, covered by those black step ramp things so that people don't trip on them. Those are totally accessible to the public.

Start of a new awesome series! This channel is amazing!

I love this topic. I was a ride op. At Disneyland (Ca.) For 10 years and we always laugh at some of the dumbest questions we would get while working. Two of my favorite questions I got are: 1. "Hey, is that real water?" 2. "How long is 50 minutes?" Lol. I would love to see another vid like this.

"How to get to Cedar Point" is a reasonable question to ask considering it's so far from any airport.

I love this! It gives off “Dumb Quotes from the GP” vibes!

Dumb Quotes from the GP has (nearly) returned

Pls do a part 2 this was LEGENDARY

Lmao the coaster as a public transport is something I’ve thought about lol. After leaving Six Flags New England I wish there was a coaster that takes ya to the parking lot lol

The questions tied to place info boxes on Google tend to be even more absurd than these if you’re looking for more content to do this again.

Some worker at SFFT on Iron Rattler stapled me and was pissed off because I was trying to get wiggle room. Then he said the words "Someone died on this ride because of what you did, please do not do it again" Me and my friend got so confused on why he said that, no one has ever died on IR!

"Does this ride go upside down?" After they stand there watching it for 45 mins, 20 of which, they stood directly under one of its loops. 😂😂😂

1:49 The best way to do it would be, make the piece of track invisible, and add a zero-G hill. That would effectively simulate the track being missing.

Ok, if I'm going to take the question about coasters being used for transit WAY too seriously, the problem is capacity. Take the standard 6 car RMC train for example. It's a pretty average roller coaster train. 12 meters long, 24 seats. Well, a standard solo bus is also about 12 meters long but it has 31 seats with standing space for an additional 30 people. 61 passengers. And that's the lowest-capacity type of transit. Let's look at rail-based transit. An average tram in my city is over 27 meters long with room for 157 passengers. And then there's the metro. 6 car trains just like the RMC but the train is 115 meters long and can fit 912 people. 252 of them get a seat. So there are over 10 times more seats and space for another 660 standing passengers. No roller coaster could ever hope to compete with that. Not even the huge 9 car B&M Hyper trains with their mere 36 seats. And let's not forget dispatch procedures. On a roller coaster train, you need to pull down and check restrains, not everyone might fit in the seats, etc. Most parks take around a minute to dispatch a train. On a metro train you just close the doors and go. Trains are only stopped for about 20 seconds before they start moving again. HOWEVER: I would still be so down for some actual roller coaster transit. Screw efficiency, it would be so much fun!

Some years back there was a video containing a doctored shot (which was also the thumbnail) of a coaster with a loop that had a gap in it, and it was extremely effective KZread clickbait. I recall hearing that back in the 1920s or so there was an entrepreneur at Coney Island who tried to build a roller coaster that jumped a gap, but he never actually completed it, probably for the best.

I can appreciate the work you've put into even videos like this with multiple angles. ya'll are appreciated jus know XD

1:08 Tyler seems stoned. As for the wires, the person who wrote the question is asking about the black insulated cables laying on the ground. Those cable go from the generator to the rides. Cutting into one of those cables will likely electrocute the person holding the knife. Electrocution, a 10,000 degree F arc flash, molten metal splattering in your face, etc.

3:21 Reviving my ride idea, we take top thrill dragster, re-profile it into a transit ride. Launch 120 MPH 420 feet in the air, then instead of returning to the station, you go to the 2nd station in the back of Frontier town. Then new passengers board it, go 120 mph up 420 feet in the air, and end up at Dragster's original station. Call it, Top thrill transport.

The question about wires is probably referring to pop-up fairs where they do tend to have cables fed through cable-runners across pathways. I imagine if you cut them you would go to jail.

THE FACT THAT THE PERSON NAMED BIRD ASKED HOW DO YOU GET TO CEDER POINT AND LITTERLY THERE IS SEAGULES FLYING AROUND THE ISLAND. So that means she is flying around the island.

This was so fun to watch

5:43 So, this was actually a thing, there was a leak somewhere where they were refilling it for the holiday overlay, and it flooded the maintenance room. They had to work overtime to fix it.

Yes yes yes yes! Keep up this awesomeness!

What the difference between Disneyland and Cedar Point? Around $170 give or take special offers without add-ons.

Oh by the way how do I get to Carowinds you just talked about ceder point lmao .. love your channel guys keep it up

I had that same idea of having a roller coaster at cedar point that goes from the front to the back of the park! I've thought about that for years.

I’m really enjoying this video!

This needs to be a weekly series 😅

The reason we use trains instead of coasters is because the gp would be too scared to travel

I was about to get on X Flight when someone had a "bathroom accident" (not sure what type) on the coaster. The protocol is the same as if someone threw up. It's maybe not as uncommon as we think.

6:14 killed me 🤣🤣🤣

My friend almost peed himself on a ride. Hour long queue for 13 at Alton towers. He literally got stapled and almost peed himself on the drop track section. I still have the onride photo of him pushing himself into the back of the seat so less pressure was on his bladder. I’ve never seen him run so fast to the toilet after we got off the ride. Temptation to say his insta rn is too strong

Hey Taylor. What are your thoughts of kings island now since your last review of the park? I'm just curious 🤨 cause I'm planning a trip and I wanted to get the thoughts from an enthusiast such as yourself.

"Maybe when people get too old for rollercoasters" A returning visitor to my local themepark is an 80+ years old woman, who goes on all the rides the park has, sometimes 20-30 times in a row. That includes an invert multilooper and a launched eurofighter. She's been on both rides more than 1000 times. I am aware that this is uncommon, but it gives me hope.

Start of a new adventure

Yes indeed, Dollywood was purchased by Kanye West. I am Kanye's Sister, Kanyeissa West, and it is now WestWood. Soon, we will have an Intamin Multi Launch with a 3000 foot top hat, and a 900 foot tall vertical loop, with a 2000 mph launch. Sincerely, Kanyeissa.

I’m in Orlando right now (April 5th) and yesterday my group rode Spider-Man at Universal and it broke down while we were on it, so we were rewarded with single use Express Passes as we got off their ride. Unfortunately, it’s not valid for VelociCoaster or Hagrid’s, or the Pterodactyl Flyers.

I can honestly say I've never had my period because of a ride. I'm also a guy, but you know how that goes these days. I rode the fun house coaster at SFOG and was over 30. 🤣 Kanye and Kim, the turbulent ride from the dark side. Disney has a mouse, cedar point has a Rougerou. Infants are great drag them along to ruin your fun.

Lol so there isn’t a bus to Cedar Point and you can’t walk there since they prohibit pedestrians on the causeway. HOWEVER, that may change in the future, since Sandusky and Cedar Point have talked about causeway improvements that include a pedestrian/cycling trail!

Doesn't RCT 2 have a park challenge where you only build rollercoasters and the park comes with a rollercoaster that has four different stations and it works as transport around the park? IRL....anything is possible. LOL

Did Taylor pog, also so close to 200k

Dumb questions are funny but dumb answers are better. Me emailing someone recently to buy a used wardrobe: Q: “Hi - what are the dimensions of this? Just checking it can fit in my house. Thanks.” A: “Hi! It’s tall and wide-ish. Thanks.” …..
