I was 6 years old and marathoning this coaster. I remember my sister told me that the loop was from a different ride and they built around it. I remember getting on top of the first hill, over 200 feet in the air, and freaking out because I saw it was a part of this ride. That's how I went on my first coaster inversion and got rid of my fear of inversions To this day I say it's the best ride I've ever been on. Over 200 coaster credits and nothing will top this. I was 14 when it was finally shut down, only 10 years old when it gave its last ride. Looking at POV videos like this make me confused. The experience I remember was so much better. The track layout is boring and repetitive, but to the young kid in me it was amazing. Regardless, in my books there is nothing that will ever beat this coaster

Really cool to see such an old POV. For a ride made out of cheap plywood that looks like toothpicks, the scale of this thing will never stop shocking me. I remember as a child I saw a documentary on Travel channel and it had a “teaser” of this ride. I thought it was fake, because wood coasters didn’t have loops. When I finally realized it had been real about five years ago I became obsessed with POVs and the story of it. Also, since this is Japanese and from roughly 2002, I am assuming that this person had a really fancy digital camera that might not have been available in America! 😂 Love how this POV makes it look pretty tame, yet you can see how it’s swaying. And just the size. RMC needs to take this layout and install their own version already….

while wooden coasters are obviously rougher than steel ones, this one was just a mess from start to finish because so many corners were cut during construction that it made the ride legitimately dangerous to ride. the ride was poorly built and genuinely unsafe for people to ride.

⁠@@c.nk.01eh, sort of? It had one incident where the track broke and sent people to the hospital. The other incident where a lady claimed she suffered an aneurysm or something was never really proven to be SOB fault, they settled. Cedar Fair actually cleared the track as being safe to reopen after that, idk if they were fearful of future liability or if there were too many maintenance costs where it was a money pit.

I think this coaster would've been so epic if RCCA didn't do a poor job constructing it

[@blockin9556]

idk looks forceless

[@mikethewhizz5085]

As poorly as the beast turned out, I absolutely respect the ambitions here. It may not have been as thrilling in person as the video makes you believe, but I love the idea of such a massive wooden coaster that isnt afraid to go upside down

[@EOSProductions394]

Amazing video quality, even for 2002!

[@YoFritts]

Amazes me I rode this thing 20 times in my life, and somehow I am alive. This is one of two coasters in my life that beat me down.

[@ElToroRyan]

This POV is excellent. Can I use it in an upcoming video? I will provide full credit to your channel!

So glad I got to ride it when it was a fresh new baby. This park has changed so much in the last 20 years!!

[@AutonahmGD]

bro im suprised you got a video from 2002 to look this good, quality is not even bad fr

[@KandJHorrordotcom]

Holy cow! I've heard a bunch of people talk junk about this coaster but it looks totally awesome to me. With that loop included, it had to be an experience to be remembered forever! Thanks for sharing this with us.

[@hypnagogue]

how'd they get a camera on this without it falling off?

[@mateuszodrzywoek8658]

super glue

[@digitaldeathsquid3448]

Duct tape

[@brycelee8516]
