21 CRAZY FACTS About Cedar Point!

[@maxhagenauer24]

I remember that Mavrick B&M Floorless thing, bringing back all the memories.

[@KeepRidinCoasters]

Right! Crazy to think about!

[@dchang11]

Dorney Park built a floorless in 2005, so I'm not surprised.

[@cparkes92]

Cedar Point did end up getting its hyper-floorless in 2016 (Valravn is technically a floorless dive coaster)

[@KeepRidinCoasters]

True Thank you for watching! - Brandon

[@NickyD]

dive coasters arent hypers or floorless thats not how they are markted by B&M

[@SmileBullet]

Nicky D i mean by the literal definition it doesn’t have a floor, and technically is a hyper of sorts as far as the community definition is concerned. But it’s marketed as neither, that’s true

[@BodhiPierce]

@@NickyD is a hyper it’s drop is 200ft and less then 300.

[@gummiebear12386]

Ummm hello Rougarou is a floorless coaster

[@TheCoasterScoop]

1:11 ok that actually looks so fun

[@KeepRidinCoasters]

Right! Lol thanks for watching!!!

[@scottelwart5685]

Maverick originally had a heartline roll between the rock walls after it banked across the pond but it was replaced with a 'S' curve after they learned it put too much stress on the seats.

[@TS_Mind_Swept]

Even the animation looked wack, I really don't know what else they were expecting..

[@billchief397]

And they found that portion not far away wow..

[@k-2l91]

This channel is so underrated

[@KeepRidinCoasters]

thank you!

[@venomcoasters2117]

I do have to agree with you

[@KeepRidinCoasters]

Thank you again!

[@CRAIGCAS10]

Another fun fact : one of the names an ad agency suggested for Magnum was “Psyco’s Path.” It was rejected as not appropriate for a family-friendly park??? Look up the definitions of “Magnum:”. A extra large container on wine, an extra large size/brand of condom, an extremely powerful handgun. All very family-friendly items-imagine the problems if you did all three simultaneously! 🤗

[@CRAIGCAS10]

Sorry meant Psycho’s Path

[@KeepRidinCoasters]

Haha! That’s great! Yeah I’ve always wondered what the definition was. Lol Hey, welcome to cedar point, come ride the worlds tallest condom. Lol I kid I kid

[@GrahamDavidYT]

Theme Park Predictions I looked it up and I’m pretty sure Magnum means large/big in the root languages so I think that’s where it came from.

[@waabmigizi7369]

glustik Large eXtra Large 200 (ft) sounds like a good coaster to me

[@quintessence2183]

Magnum is a type of ice cream in the UK.

[@roydodge4340]

Maverick was clearly the better choice. With mantis being converted to floorless, and valravn being a floorless dive coaster, cedar point definitely went in the right direction

[@billchief397]

Not harping on kings island but they need more variation of manufacturing. B&m love you but majority of your coaster are not fast they have a gentle swoop... well not diamondback lol love that coaster even have an Awesome photo bomb on mine... me and brother hand in air girl on side seat ...blacked out ha ha. I want to see more macks

[@stevenyeckle9177]

When mean streak was built if u took ever board laid end to end it would stretch from cedar point to West Virginia

[@KeepRidinCoasters]

Wow! That’s wild! Thanks Steven! - Brandon

[@enfynet]

I believe it will reach Roanoke Virginia

[@kmeyerlocal66]

Heading to Cedar Point with my daughter for the first time in a couple weeks..... Can't wait, thank you for the fun facts.

[@KeepRidinCoasters]

You’re welcome!! Thank you for watching! - Brandon

[@CRAIGCAS10]

Think you’re way off on the Gemini stats. I worked there in 78-79 and know Gemini did well over 3 million guests per year. At around 3,200 per hour the ride could accommodate over 40,000 riders on a 14 hour operating day (10am-Midnight).

[@nunyabiihz8922]

You stated the magic seat on Magnum is train 1 row 3. I disagree. After riding Magnum 2 dozen times for the past 2 weekends, row 11 is the new magic seat, great airtime and is super easy on the thighs. Try it for yourself!!

[@ultimateparkmasters4735]

Your channel is growing very fast! Great job almost 3k subs!

[@KeepRidinCoasters]

Thank you! I appreciate it!

[@tracysmith6944]

I remember the double ferris wheel? Also the double carousel? I loved the ride that spun so fast you stuck to the walls! (Can't remember the name!?). I miss the log ride on the front midway, & white water landing.

[@KeepRidinCoasters]

Hi Tracy, the double Ferris wheel was before my first visit in 1993, such a great park with great history. Thanks for watching! - Brandon

[@m83-b7y]

The Rotor is the name of that spin ride which dropped the floor and you stuck to the walls. I loved the Demon Drop as well, great park that provided many memories

[@midnightx1159]

Now when cedar point opens and I ride the carousel imma go directly to that horse or tell toddlers on it about how haunted it is because I’m that kind.

[@KeepRidinCoasters]

That’s great! Do it! Thanks for watching!

[@maxhagenauer24]

Wilderness Run was Intamins very first coaster but I assume you already know that.

[@KeepRidinCoasters]

I actually did not! I knew it had to of been one of their first.

[@anthonybarnes2355]

Man , I remember going there wen I was bout 10 . I'm 53 now and the blue streak is still there . Fond memories .

[@pacevoez1929]

this was good you should do another one of these but on Hershey

[@KeepRidinCoasters]

I will add it to my queue! Thank you!!

[@rmc_fan]

This is an extremely unknown and “un-documented” fact, but I know this from my dad who was a maintenance worker. Surprisingly, there was an eight year time period where one of the “upward launching” towers from Power Tower had no function and was solely for support. S&S apparently did this because of the electric grid not being capable of handling the current of all four towers. But when Mantis was converted to Rougarou, they strengthened the grid and added the launch for the fourth tower. If you look at images of Power Tower from its early days, you can actually see this. A little bit of rare history!

[@KeepRidinCoasters]

That’s great! Thanks for sharing Kevin!

[@enfynet]

But it was built and operating with all 4 towers running. They may have closed it for a while but it was always designed to run all 4 towers.

[@Lilwobb]

I live 45 minutes away from cedar point

[@itsahouse639]

One of my friends can see Cedar Point from his house!

[@MrKillerRC]

Great video. I learned a few things. I was just at CP last week. Love it.

[@KeepRidinCoasters]

Hi Kent! Was that your first time? Thank you for watching! I appreciate it! - Brandon

[@ppipowerclass]

The park use to have 2 sky rides. The building for the end of the 2nd one is in frontier town right next to the exit for Mine Ride. If you look at the building, you can still see the 2 doors where the cars use to come in.

[@cancelled148]

Omg! If they don't get a giga, they should get a Jersey Devil Clone! It could fit! It's great! They can even extend it! Also you're one of my favorite coaster channel! I even recommended it to my friend. ❤😘

[@robbropyro3283]

Iv rode magnum many times this year but they have 3 off limits due to social distancing witch sucks as thats my favorite seat and favorite ride but hey there open so overall still very happy with cp

[@christopherpriebe8910]

Hoping for a Holiday World 10 year plan at some point. Great channel!

[@MillenniumForceMan]

Cedar Point almost built a second giga in the back of the park for 2013, it was then scrapped as cedar fair ownership changed and they built gatekeeper instead, this is mentioned in richard kinzel's biography

[@KeepRidinCoasters]

Hey MFM! This is awesome! Would they have built there where the Gemini is?

[@MillenniumForceMan]

@@KeepRidinCoasters it sounded like it was going to be behind where mean streak was, space would be limited so it sounded like an out and back type layout probably by B&M, if u didnt know their old CEO didnt like removing coasters, no coaster was removed when he was CEO but after that lots of coasters started getting removed from the park

[@KeepRidinCoasters]

Yeah I remember the Kinzel days.. some good things about him and some not so good things lol

[@MillenniumForceMan]

@@KeepRidinCoasters he's my favorite, cp was unbeatable in those days, ngl im not really a huge huge fan of cedar fair anymore after he retired

[@tylerdifranco7242]

@@KeepRidinCoasters I knew about this too, but the design of that future giga was later used on a different roller coaster at Carowinds. That's why the layouts for Fury 325 and GateKeeper are so similar, it's because that giga wasn't supposed to be in the back, it was meant to replace the old bobsled roller coaster, Disaster Transport RIP, and Space Spiral which were both maintenance nightmares.

[@generaldoof7334]

As someone who lives within 30 min of Irish Hills, i'm livid they blocked the Cedar Fair park considering they have a freakin NASCAR track in the area. Would be much more convenient than MI Adventure/Cedar Point.

[@coasterdaddy7123]

A 200ft tall floorless.... I mean Maverick as is, is a great ride. But damn dude, 200ft floorless sounds kinda sweet!

[@KeepRidinCoasters]

It does sound very intriguing... why not both? 😃

[@blacklisted351]

I wish they would do this, but they already have 2 floorless coasters.

[@NickyD]

really nothing speical to be honest maverick that launch cant be beat

[@coastingthrills7297]

“A whooping 25 feet tall and 10mph” 😂😂

[@jasonelston2707]

We can’t look at what Cedar Point should’ve gotten, we have to instead be thankful of the stuff they already have. I’m glad that we got Maverick instead of a b&m floorless, and CP technically already has two floorless coasters now.

[@RPKraul]

Jason Elston Indeed. I can’t imagine a floorless that’s better than Maverick-or even in the same ballpark.

[@gmoney2734]

Fascinating.

[@jonathonedwardmiller]

You should do a SWSA 10 year plan bc they have a very bright future imo

[@rmasterstudios]

Actually fun fact: Maverick was also proposed to be a 500ft tall coaster.

Never heard of this, but that would of been cool! Know anymore details?

[@coasterdaddy7123]

Where did you hear that? 🤯

[@rmasterstudios]

No no details. All i know it was mentioned in John Hildebrands Memoir of the Midway. I do know this, it wasnt chosen because itd just be millennium but bigger.

Cedar point has had two rides name shoot the rapids. The first one was removed in 1981 to make room for White Water landing

[@timstradtman8031]

Actually, there have been three. The first was near where Blue Streak is today and was called "Chute the Rapids". The second was removed for White Water Landing, which in turn was removed for Maverick. The third was on the island in the lagoon and was eventually replaced with Forbidden Frontier. :)

I have a fun fact. You can't have a bad day at Cedar Point

[@PerroV]

That was, for the most part, true before corona hit. Now that corona is here, I've heard a lot of complaints, but not because of the staff, but because of access passes and the mask requirement.

[@mr.rollercoasters]

Masks aren't awful in parks so I think people need to suck it up. However, the access passes are stupid. I went to Dorney Park yesterday, and they didn't change a thing. There were social distancing marks in the queue lines. I get that CP is a bigger park, but they really should've figured out a better system

[@mr.rollercoasters]

Although I have Autism and I can't wait in lines well, so I always use a boarding pass. So I don't think I'll even need an access pass

[@RPKraul]

Usually true. Their operations, however, have not been stellar this year.
