    And now instead of properly funding it to keep it open for everyone to use our government is turning it into a high-priced spa for the rich. God bless Doug Ford and the conservative party

    how many people visited here for Mary Magdalene's Wild Ride only to find out that the stories about her were not considered biblically accurate?

    They always talk about turning a profit, but never the profit to the community. Factor in, constructions jobs and over all economy boom. Complain about wasted tax dollars to something like this while supporting sending billions of our dollars as "international ad"...

    I worked at Great Adventure when Batman opened. The opening day was absolutely intense. I worked on a water slide ride called Asian Tower. It was tall enough to see the crowds run towards Batman. My coworkers and I just stood there, mouths hanging open, while thousands of people streamed towards the coaster.

    This guy was a great mind - a passionate person with a dream and drive - someone's creepy-average-at-best kid has an accident and the millions of people whose life's moments were made better by a person with vision and guts don't matter? His impression on the world was a net gain in my book.

    I marathoned the Yahoo flume ride one day and got in 30 rides. There was a second expansion which wasn't mentioned in the video: Old St. Louis. This small area had a fun house and bumper cars. I heard that when Bud announced the closure of the LA Park, the brewery recieved many bomb threats.

    Harry Henninger loved the Laser Loop. One of the reasons Steel Phantom kept the vertical loop and the fast station re-entry. It's a shame they weren't able to find a way to keep both, or bring back the Loop for Lost Kennywood. I haven't been back to the park since Steel Phantom's last season in 2000, but I hope to one day get my first ride on Revenge.

    Brilliant and fascinating videos. May I suggest though, that the narration would be greatly enhanced if you could work on pronouncing “Th” and “-ing” correctly instead of as “F” and “-in”.

    20:47 Insano means nothing in Spanish. At the most could sound as unhealthy. (Sano means healthy) It's just a strange spanglish sounding word, nothing else.

    With this said this show or “ride” should’ve been called Terminator 2 4:D because you felt the effects, you felt the water when the t-1 million was blown into pieces, heck 5:D due to the actors popping out of the screen (even tho they were stunt people)! But yeah calling it 3:D was a mistake, it should’ve definitely been called 4:D or 5:D

    That was the most terrifying coaster I ever rode on. Of course I am getting dizzy just watching this video and even worse I am absolutely terrified of heights. Cant stand on a ladder and I am 98" tall. Flying no problem. That coaster was awesome for a scaredy cat like me.
