TheCoasterProject I love you lmaooo

[@SeanFlaharty]

I love Phantasialand! While there have been loads of new attractions installed since my last visit in 2007, I still look back at my visit fondly. We ended up liking the place so much we went back for a second day. Great shots, look and editing as usual!

[@coasterbot]

I love it too now. I can't wait to see how the park evolves with FLY and even after FLY. Glad you had a fantastic time also. Thank you! :)

[@coasterfrenzy3074]

My gosh, harry. I have to be honest. You do my favorite Vlogs on KZbin. These are awesome quality keep up the good work :)

[@coasterbot]

Thank you, that really means a lot! There's much more to come :)

[@coasterfrenzy3074]

COASTER BOT yeah np man! I’m so excited to see more like this 😁

[@dexty112]

“I’m wet” Very insightful

[@coasterbot]

Yep! ;)

[@TrainsPlanesRheinSieg]

The problem with Temple of the Nighthawk is its theming, when that coaster first opened in the late 80s, it had some really cool space theming, wich included the trains and the ride area itself. Sadly though they later removed that and replaced it with the "theming" found there today, also they seem to not want anybody to ride on it as the whole thing is well hidden in the back portion of the park. It is really sad to be able to ride first row three times in a row due to the fact, that no one wants to ride, as that in my opinion wouldn´t be so if the theming hadn´t been got rid of. Im still a huge fan of that coaster, not only because it still holds some world records after roughly 30 years of operation, but due to the fact that it still is a fun ride with no queuetime or whatsoever......

[@coasterbot]

I imagine it would be much better with the older theming. It's a shame that they changed it, but now I would really like the park to use the space for something else, especially since how they lack real room.

[@TrainsPlanesRheinSieg]

Thats understandable, for my part I wonder why they haven´t demolished it yet, especially concidering how big that attraction is compared to most others, maybe they´re planning some sort of renovation or so, would be nice.....

[@cslkenny]

@@TrainsPlanesRheinSieg Trains_Planes Rhein-Sieg Nah. If they were going to keep Temple in the long term they would have already done something more with it. The park are very much aware, and have admitted, that it doesn't match their standards. Due to the extreme lack of space they are strategically playing a long game of redeveloping the park and making every bit of space count as they patiently await to hopefully secure new land. As for why haven't done it already? Fantissima their highly profitable and popular dinner show is in the same building and they haven't got a replacement venue yet. Also stuff like Silver City and Race for Atlantis just simply were more in need of replacement than Temple. The Temple/Hollywood Tour building is a massive plot of land, prime for a new indoor area and rides it will undoubtedly go. Personally I'd predict Temple has about 3 more years left, as Geister Rikscha is rumoured to be replaced next.

[@bacongamer889]

Trains_Planes Rhein-Sieg when I went, it took ages to find that ride, like most of the lesser known rides there

[@5MadMovieMakers]

Taron it up at Fantasy Land

[@coasterbot]

ha ha *yes*

[@Crowsalina]

I went here two years ago and it was honestly one of my favourite rides ever (taron being the best out of them)

This was so pleasant to watch. The quality of the video, the editing and your comments work really well together. Keep making these vlogs ! :) Also, I can't wait to visit Phantasialand. It looks really nice.

[@coasterbot]

Thank you, that really means a lot! There are more vlogs to come from earlier in the year, and next year I'll be sure to record more and continually attempt to improve them. Phantasialand is a great park! :)

[@jeroen3241]

I freakin love Mystery Castle, the part when you're up there looking at each other with that wierd light just sells it for me. You got launched 2 times? if so, you got the best one.

[@coasterbot]

We did get launched twice. That is a fantastic part, I also love it when the ride just throws you back towards the ground - it is awesome! :)

[@Tomathana]

Yeah, the mysery cycle is just a single maximum launch The better cycle is a really nice surprise as the second launch comes out of nowhere

[@maxt2391]

Nice vlog from my favourite park in Germany. I really look forward to my visit on the second of october. At the moment Taron is my favourite coaster before Shambhala and Expedition Ge Force

[@technoandrew]

I really love seeing these vlogs, and it's fun having both of you feature properly in them. I think I prefer seeing these before listening to the podcast, as they work better chronologically that way. Less spoilers, you know. Great work anyway!

[@coasterbot]

Awesome, I agree! That makes sense, vlog first podcast second. Thank you! :)

[@triplehelix3794]

This is the first one of your vlogs I’ve watched but I have to say, it’s top quality! I’ll be subscribing in a moment. Good background music, excellent editing - kept my interest going throughout and I liked the frequent reviews of rides featuring you and Zoe. Looks a great park and I’m really excited for my upcoming trip there in just over 2 weeks time. Taron looks good but I can’t see it displacing Helix as my favourite ride but we’ll see!

[@coasterbot]

Thank you for the kind words, I'm really glad you liked it! Check out the other vlogs on the channel while you are at it ;) Have a fantastic time at the park, it is great. I think Helix is better than Taron so I don't see it displacing it either ;)

[@charlienewbold9809]

Me and some friends made a music group when we were 13 called the Bongo Bois. Ahh, Harry you’re bringing back the memories.

Great video! I'm on of those people who love and appreciate Temple of the Night Hawk, then again I'm so old I got to know it in it's early days where it was still an immersively themed Space and stars experience :D anyways, great style of vlogging, subscribed

[@coasterbot]

Thanks! I imagine the old Temple of the Night Hawk was actually much better. Thank you, it means a lot :)

[@coastermadab]

I agree with you and your thoughts on Taron. I too enjoyed it, but rate the Hansa Park infinity coaster higher.

[@coasterbot]

Awesome to hear! :)

[@paullucas3174]

SUCH FUN!!!

[@saredciders7414]

Taron looks like such an amazing family coaster!

[@coasterbot]

Funny ;)

[@ashmaxwell665]

I will admit it does look like a family coaster. The only way to determine the force and airtime is to actually ride it.

[@fredl.7696]

10:10 They couldn’t build any large outdoor ride in that section of the park, cause it’s too close to the neighbors, who always complain about the noise. It looks like Taron was running kinda bad that day, on the footage

[@coasterbot]

This is true, but a large scale indoor attraction would be fantastic too! I think so as well unfortunately :(

[@lukehavey829]

fantabulous vlog, keep it up!

[@coasterbot]

Thank you, will do :)

[@TecrasTrash]

Perfect time for a vlog, been there just yesterday and barely got on all the coasters, fricking queues. As an absolute newbie to coasters, I must say that Taron is absolutely mental (especially the s-curves) and the theming is just beyond awesome, being the second park for me. Must say Heide Park doesn't compare at all. I have to go again when F.L.Y. opens.

[@coasterbot]

Taron is mental and fantastic! Heide Park is extremely different to Phantasialand in many senses of the word. :)

[@TecrasTrash]

What's your opinion on F.L.Y.? A flying launch coaster by.... Vekoma?!

[@Operateur]

Great vlog man! How long where the queue times on Taron?

[@coasterbot]

Thanks! The queue for Taron ranged from 25-40 minutes throughout the entire day. :)

[@gdburningfire3810]

COASTER BOT Wat how? When I went two days ago the lines where so long lol, couldn’t even go on it D:

[@Operateur]

I always hear people go there with normal Taron queue times. Always when I go they are at least 90 minutes! This summer even 215 minutes bah...

[@coasterbot]

PHL really need another large scale thrill ride. Lucky F.L.Y will be with us soon! :)

[@diarmaidmoloney5611]

I was there about 2 weeks. Loved the Park, it has really well done Theming. Taron and Black mamba are fantastic ride's. Taron is without a doubt best coaster without a Inver in the world.

[@coasterbot]

Awesome, glad to hear you had a fantastic time! :)

[@XtraKnusprig]

You did get the good cycle on mistery castle. Did you actually See the actors in the queue tho?

[@coasterbot]

Awesome and yeah we saw a guy who spooked both of us! ;)

[@altontowersmagic8775]

Love this place

[@coasterbot]

Me too! :)

[@shroomyesc]

13:10 I wish... flights from Helsinki-Vantaa to anywhere near the place cost at least 130€ so adding in park tickets, hotel etc 2 days at Phantasialand would probably amount to at least 400€ for me :V

[@coasterbot]

That's unfortunate :(

[@btox571]

But did you try the small hidden attractions?

[@coasterbot]

We didn't unfortunately. We will next time though! :)

[@TripleTSingt]

Its my home park, but I haven't been in seven years. So my favorites (No Taron/Raik, as they weren't open last time I went): 1. Black Mamba 2. Talocan 3. Winjas (Fear > Force) 4. Colorado Adventure 5. River Quest

[@coasterbot]

That's a solid list! It's a fantastic park, you'll have to visit again soon :)

[@TripleTSingt]

@@coasterbot I will actually work there for the summer ^^ looking forward to that

[@GavHern]

Do a Video on California's Great America! It has an interesting history..

[@coasterbot]

I'll note that down, thanks for the suggestion :)

[@TheDutchRevolution]

I didn't even know Mystery Castle had 2 cycles, only went on it once and it was really cool but way too short :( What do you think of that weird asian spinning house thingey?

[@coasterbot]

You probably got the short cycle then unfortunately. We didn't go on anything like that ha ha :)

[@TheDutchRevolution]

It's the house that you see at 8:06, it's some sort of rotating house (I don't know what the correct term for it is), with the illusion that you're going upside down. It's alright I've seen better versions but there is a really long intro scene which is really weird. You didn't miss out on much but I was curious if you experienced it.

[@TitanPlays]

Revolution Those type of attractions are called Mad Houses

[@TheDutchRevolution]

Ahh alright thanks!

[@kevsouthwell6136]

Judging by the background music, you must've really liked some of Walibi's park music ;)

Walibi just uses royalty free music. By just searching the internet I find the same music producers that Walibi use, that's all! It isn't on purpose ;)

The Last time I was in Cologne I actually got a chance to see my favourite piece of architecture; the Cologne Cathedral (despite me being an atheist.) But that was in 2009 when Taron didn't exist. Now that it does I'll make a point of going there next time I visit Cologne. I think there's a fair chance I'll like Taron better than Maverick, (but I prefer Millennium Force and Steel Vengeance to Maverick anyhow. I'm not a fan of the "beyond vertical" drop on Maverick, or the boring lift hill, or the break entering the tunnel.) From what I can tell Taron looks better than Maverick, but I'm not expecting it to beat MF or SV. Thanks for this comprehensive video of Phantasialand, the best themed amusement park in Europe if not the world.

[@adrenalineaddiction6253]

The glasses are for you to remember Taylor stapling you

[@deloron8813]

How can Chiapas not blow your mind? It's the best log fume by far, at least for me. Your thoughts on River Quest?

[@coasterbot]

It is a very cool ride, especially the drop, but it didn't blow me away. Maybe with better boats I'd have been blown away fully! We didn't ride River Quest as it wasn't very warm and we didn't want to get absolutely soaked.

[@deloron8813]

You missed the strangest + best rafting ride ever :). But you made a understandable decision. You get terribly soaked on that one.

[@diarmaidmoloney5611]

You need to do an explained episode of this! The park has the best combination of Theming and thrill rides in the world. Taron has the best theming in the world and it probably the best coaster in the work without an inversion.

[@coasterbot]

I hope to in the future! Stay tuned :)

So honestly, Black Mamba and Taron are only truly amazing when you're in the front row. Black Mamba was really boring the second time I went on it while sitting in the middle. Same for Taron to be honest.Really didn't do too much for me until I experienced it front row.

[@coasterbot]

Taron front row is easily the best seat. I wish we did Mamba front also, but the queue was crazy!

[@Skyjessi]

I'm not sure if I agree on Mamba, I had a kinda painful experience in the front lol. But Taron in the front is godlike... Well any row is godlike honestly :')

Glad that you had a good day !
