Blackgang Chine Vlog June 2021

[@Url12348]

OK, can we just take into account that this man travels for hours, records for hours, edits for probably hours and then proceeds to reply to most of the comments, hearts most if not all of them, and because he does this, it obviously means that he reads them all too! Shawn your a legend.

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Thank you very much for your kind words and support!

The Man is a Vlogging machine, and he absolutely loves 💘 a fountain or lighting package 📦 😊

[@Url12348]

Yes 😂 😂

[@OnceIcaughtafiash]

Fully agree! Love the energy !

[@jackryanmiller]

Literally my entire childhood has just flashed back to me. I love the way it’s been more or less the same for about 20 years but still has that charm

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

This place really does have so much character!

[@JAMIE15MEADOWS]

Completely agree with you

[@mrsdoyle1968]

Well done for coming to the island and showing it off. I'm a born and bred Islander and wouldn't live anywhere else. It's always good to see people who come and enjoy it and don't spend all their time saying "there's nothing to do". And I'm 53 now and still love Blackgang Chine! Keep up the great work with the videos, you're a great couple!

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

There’s so much to do on the island!

[@kylebicker7649]

There's a reason a massive Scout Camp happens over there every year Done that camp the last 2 years, so good, especially the free ride on the Needles Chairlift

[@bekkie1546]

Thank you for your vlogs, I have a big love for theme parks but don't have any friends to go with me and don't yet own a car to get to them, your videos helps bring the magic of the theme parks to the lonely ones like me who wish they could be there. Thanks again!

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Thank you very much! It’s great to hear that you enjoy our videos!

[@davidc9441]

Wow - so many of those exhibits were part of my childhood 45 years ago. I remember crawling through the hole in "Hells Mouth" in about 1978 and wearing my cowboy hat and interacting with those same manaquins. Shame to see Smugglers cave has been redone into the underwater thing as that told part of the Chine's original Pirate history. Also looks like the real tanks and armoured vehicles have gone. Have got so many memories of actually climbing and sitting on the original fiberglass Dinosaurs.

[@imaginativehorizons1757]

Interesting fact: the dragon by the park entrance is actually a remnant of a past attraction! From 1991 up until 2016 there was a land called Fantasyland where Underwater Kingdom is now, which was home to three attractions, one being the Angry Dragon, a red animatronic dragon that would come out from behind some castle turrets. The dragon was repainted purple and placed where it is now for the 2020 season! :)

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Thanks for sharing. That’s great to see!

[@clareriley]

I love this fact x

[@GarryWilliams555]

I have so many special memories of this place from my childhood. It's good to see all the new additions but also very sad to see most of what I loved about this place as a kid is gone. I loved this place so much when I was little.

[@markgawne5919]

Ah so many memories of going to Blackgang Chine as a child. Hopefully get back there one day

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Love the place!

[@sazharas]

This vlog brought back so many childhood memories of visiting blackgang! I can just about remember being able to go down onto the beach. They used to have a nursery rhyme land & also a hedge maze as well.

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Thanks for watching! The hedge maze is still there!

[@-b_i_b_b_y-]

My first EVER rollercoaster! The love is still strong 12 years later :D

They have now removed it and replaced it with some plastic dinosaurs, big sad

Hey Shawn, Thank you for all of your epic Tpww and Adventure Shawn vlogs, they've been so amazing and enjoyed every minute of them going along these virtual adventures with both you and Charlotte. As for this vlog I vaguely remember something about visiting this really cool unique park on my family vacation when I was a kid back in the late 80's its barely recognisable with so many changes new additions, especially with all the themeing aspects as well that enhanced it more. oh that huge whale I think it's called a humpback whale lol, Stay Safe

Went here as a kid. Each year parts of it would fall into the sea as the cliffs crumbled. Loved the wizard ride who told the weather.

Yes! Another vlog at black gang chine! I didn’t know you were at the isle of white at the moment and this has just made my day! So excited to watch this vlog, and the needles vlog too, because I have so many memories of both of these places! I’m going back for the first time in about 7 years in July and I can’t wait for the memories to come back!

Cliff hanger is Retiring at the end of this season, drop tower and a magic carpet ride of sorts has opened this year

[@aaaarg7053]

Ah I'm sad the coaster is closing. I wonder if they'll get another? We went a week or two ago & didn't realise it was going to be our last time on Cliff Hanger. The drop tower is actually a really fun drop tower - Would definitely rather ride this one than Croc Drop for example. Great views from the top of it too! The magic carpet is a bit of a nothingburger though, even for smaller kids.

Thanks for watching!

[@alanwheeler3696]

Blackgang Chine has changed an awful lot since I went as a kid about 1980. Then the road was the cliff side of what is now the park and the Chine was on the cliffs. It was best then done at night when the lights on the chine brought it to life. Mind whilst very different it looks great as it is now.

[@bethanygardner6302]

Just found this video after seeing the news about the new ride! Always love your videos!

[@oli_s.09]

I remember visiting this place when I was 6!

[@8964TS]

This was a staple on my family holiday's to the IoW as a kid (I'm from the New Forest so we went every year or two). Back in the 80s there wasn't much more than the maze, some dinosaurs and cowboy thing, and some smuggler stuff.

[@michaelbeirne9704]

Your Blackgang Chine video is very good for this year I quite enjoyed this video is the best video I’ve ever watched on your channel because I love the Isle of Wight a lot one of my favourite places in the UK ever keep yourself safe Sean and Charlotte

Thank you!

I holidayed in the IOW 5 times from 1962 - 1966. Haven't been back since. It probably hasn't changed ! But I don't remember Blackhang ever being this big !

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

I’m sure we’ll be back again at some point this year!

[@KarenGoesTripping]

I used to go there in the 70s/80s when I was a VERY tiny child and remember that there was a maze close to the entrance. We regularly got lost in it. I vaguely recall walking through a whalebone arch too, but could be confusing that with Whitby. I'd love to go back one day though!

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Thanks for sharing your memories!

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

It’s definitely worth a visit! Thanks for watching!

[@DJSVideosShorts]

Thank you for sharing and uploading another fantastic video. Visited the Isle of Wight long time ago, knew about Blackgang Chine, but never visited, never fully knew what it was like. So thank you for showing whats there. Love the rollercoaster, think there could be a rollercoaster put somewhere in the Dino area? Also, think maybe Cowboy town could have a wooden coaster? Where you stated, was thinking and asking if it could fit near the cliff? Just looked on Google Maps at the space, could probs get a nice sized one in there, maybe same size as Scenic Railway at Margate? Or junior coaster at Blackpool pleasure beach? Would be good if they had more rides put down there especially more themed coasters, attract more tourists to the park? But yeah, apart from that its different, which is what I like. Cheers again for uploading, look forward to watching "The Needles" now. Got that song in my head lol. Maybe could create a song for charity? Just a suggestion? 🤔🤔🤔🤔😀👍

DONKEY!!! LOL That was one of my favorite TPW moments when Shawn was cracking up at this.

Whilst not a theme park, I went to The War of the Worlds immersive experience in London last week, and it is incredible, words cannot describe it, and it is worth every penny.
