As soon as it was sold off to sunway, everything changed. The Malaysia company didn't care. They put the prices up and didn't maintain the park much.

Damn, it looks slower than Grizzly at CGA, still cool though. This park has an interesting history, being the only Paramount park that was overseas. Makes me wonder what would’ve happened if it stayed open and Cedar Fair bought it with all the other Paramount parks here in the States.

I haven’t even gone to this place, but my god I think going to a Hanna Barbera themed land in a theme park sounds so awesome to me (if they still had it before they closed). Hope everyone had a good time in Wonderland, because it sure sounded bloody awesome 🥲

When I worked at Australia's Wonderland in 1989 the first rides I operated were Wizard's Fury, Dragon's Flight and Zodiac. After a couple of months and extra training I also operated the Jousting Ring (Dodgem Cars) and the spectacular Bounty's Revenge. As others have mentioned, there was often coins falling, and wallets, sunnies, packets of chewing gum. And we had buckets of kitty litter to cover over "protein spills" hahaha. Thankfully they didn't happen too often.

I remember riding the Bush Beast when it was brand new in 1985. Seeing the bright timber in this video reminded me of the fresh woodwork smell. I would work as a ride operator at Wonderland in 1989 up at Medieval Faire ... Dragon's Flight, Wizard's Fury, Zodiac, Jousting Ring and Bounty's Revenge. Great memories, thanks for the videos.

I remember getting to the top and my dad would always spot out mum walking around the park or our car in the car park. Didn’t realise how much he helped me through my fears. Miss you dad and thankyou for the memories.

I remember walking around the park and I would get scared from people screaming like they were being murdered. But then everyone would just say “that must be the demon going again”

I love everything you've compiled on this channel. I am making a video talking about the "Beasts" of the coaster world and wanted to see if I could use a few clips from your library for Bush Beast and Beastie. I'd give on screen credit and link back to the video. Please let me know, thanks!

I literally almost died on this ride, so if it, or the same design is still operating anywhere they should look into it. I was about 10 or 11 years old from memory. I was the correct height BUT I was quite thin with narrow shoulders. The G-force almost threw me out the front gap of the overhead safety bar. I remember holding on and screaming for my actual life. I have NEVER been on a ride since and will never again.
