Coastin’ Thru Europe Episode 32: GRÖNA LUND

[@Kwysi]

the subway has more theming than most six flags rides

[@TylerPCoyne]

**F A C T S**

[@lisatom42]

😂😂😂😂😂

[@darealsavage3472]

And pantheon

[@judeswindler7259]

my washing machine has better theming than most six flags rides

[@davedoesthingsdreaded]

That's because sux flags goes for thrills over theming. Duh. Would you rather have dumb down rides with good theming or awesome rides with little to no theming? Pretty much every park out there has better "theming" then six flags parks. Bashing six flags theming is getting old and really no need to brig it up

[@TylerPCoyne]

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: It really is amazing how they were able to cram in all those rides into a small space!

[@Sam-zw5kk]

2:25: More people need to be talking about how good Sarah's singing was here

[@trumphatesyou]

This is exactly the reason I looked at the comments.

[@SANITIZEDINC]

Plus it qualifies as a Rickroll, which deserves props.

[@Patibens]

I was just going to comment on that

[@josiahsimmons9866]

It was so great!!

[@AlexR47x]

Sarah rickrolling us all is a major flex

[@IntheLoopPodcast]

Good call on going to the Vasa museum, really spectacular. I very much enjoyed Stockholm, feel like it doesn’t get enough attention when people talk about big European cities to visit.

[@SANITIZEDINC]

The two of you have captured lightening in a bottle. You balance each other so well. Major networks search far and wide to find people with your kind of chemistry. Taylor is an uber-coaster-nerd -- and I mean that in the best possible way because all the best people have at least a lil' geek and nerd in 'em. And Sarah is delightful (also super coaster-nerdy, also in the best way) and brings the perfect balance and humor to your videos (bravo for the Rickroll, Sarah -- great voice!). I hope you guys can keep it up a long time. It's what sets you apart from the others. Cheers!

[@detroitdiezel7856]

It's like Regis and Kathy Lee!!

[@trxllmikey]

sarah slayed with the singing

[@scruppydoo]

I think you all should do a video explaining how you planned these trips. So those of us that are wanting to do one can have some insight on how to get started. I am so lost when it come to traveling outside the country.

[@ASSamiYT]

Gröna Lund is so great and isn't just the ship and massive booms.

[@michael7054]

Great video! This park is so compact and neat! I enjoyed watching!

[@kevinkaplan]

Hey I was the supervisor of the non-funny house that got a pic with you guys! Been waiting for this vlog 🙌🏻

[@CoasterStudios]

Thanks for saying hi! Great to meet you!

[@mattiasdanieldamsgaardwood1315]

The Vasa, which sank near Stockholm on its first sailing in 1628, was not a Viking ship. (The age of the Vikings ended in the 11th century.)@@CoasterStudios

[@rollercaster4400]

2:19 Last time I checked the VASA museum it wasn’t a Viking ship. I think you got your timeline wrong.😂

[@rollercaster4400]

Thanks! Just so you know, I am Swedish so I knew that but you wrote that for everyone else

[@Bald_Zeus]

I last went to Gröna lund like 10 years ago and I'm a Stockholm resident. I really regret that now because Jetline will close down forever now after the fatal accident and I really loved that ride

[@Tove_Ishockey]

i was there today and i was extremely sad when it was closed😢

[@KittenCritters]

Like the pillar at 11:18 there are 2 additional ones right inside the restaurant next doors, one in the kitchen & one in the bar - not the easiest place to work!

[@dliessmgg]

5:42 These are sculptures by two Swiss artists! The colourful figures are by Niki de Saint Phalle, while the moving mechanical sculptures/fountains are by Jean Tinguely. I quite like the work of those two, pretty cool that you just stumbled over them in the wild.

[@Sheepy_sheeo]

Yes!! My home park!!

[@dpayne8611]

Rip Jetline 🥲

[@jayminyoel7911]

Good or bad news, depending how you look at it: Jetline will reopen next season.

[@zygoat2369]

That point about the old school inverts being too much for the average person makes a lot of sense. Busch Gardens Tampa was my home park growing up, and Montu always was a walk-on. I can remember only one time that the queue actually had a wait to it. Riding Montu is a very intense experience, the ride feels like it's trying to rip your legs off. I guess a lot of people rode it once and then never rode it again after they felt those intense forces

[@SibKer]

can't get over the amazing INTRO!!!!!😩

[@victoriamaier5844]

Lovely vlog as usually . Sarah's singing is so nice to hear

[@neriidesu]

It is not a Viking ship, its from the 1600.

[@rmel8139]

Taylor, for your fast food chicken sandwhich quest I highly recommend Jam Hot Chicken in Winter Park, FL

[@judgecheese3594]

Fun fact: The Vasa ship was actually the royal ship for sweden during our "era of great power" in which we were one of europes most powerfull nations. Unfortunately the ship was so heavy and stacked with weapons that it sank not even 10 minutes after it set sail. It was then recovered from the ocean floor exactly 333 years later. It was a miracle that it was still intact. But it goes to show how sturdy the ship was for it's time.

[@neriidesu]

You guys should get back to Gothenburg this summer for their 100th anniversary!

[@fadedidentity]

that’s funny that Sarah mentioned the park reminding her of a Rollercoaster Tycoon park because those were my exact thoughts! the layout of the park is so well executed with so little space. the coasters weave in and out of each other and travel through some really cool tunnels and other near miss elements. there’s a lot of fun looking nooks and crannies scattered throughout the park, and the pathways weave in and around all of the attractions allowing for some really cool views and vantage points of the rides. the amount of kinetic energy in this park seems like it makes for very vibrant and one of a kind atmosphere. not to mention the architecture around the park is absolutely stunning, particularly the station and surrounding area for Monster. from a design perspective, the park looks incredible. and the rides look great to match. although the coasters here might not be exactly “elite”, the overall package of the park makes this one of my bucket list destinations.

[@rollercaster4400]

As a person watching this a few months after its release it’s very sad what happened to jetline. RIP

[@devdevthrills]

We did a case study on that ship when I was getting my MBA. Super fascinating story, incredibly unfortunate they didn't know exactly what they were doing so it sank immediately. That will definitely be top of the list of things to do when visiting for me!

[@rc-nate]

I was here literally three weeks ago it was so good

[@coasterconquest]

This park looks awesome.

[@jppurple98]

One of the best videos in the series! Loved Grona Lund. The Shwarzkoff coaster looked so fun and the clown funhouse 😊 Loved that Yannik was back! Sarah singing Rick Astley made my day 😊 Love the ship but wish you would have went to the Abba museum 😢😊 The Drop towers are a no for me especially with all the accidents they have had. They closed the one here in Orlando. Looking forward to the next video! Great teamwork guys! 😎😊👍

[@stephenromance9866]

Awesome episode, love the series!

[@poorwillis]

Bro I was jamming to that music🤘

[@benjaminwienke9020]

I wanna know the name of it so bad! Absolutly amazing jam

[@mysticprophecy5395]

The Vasa ship you went to first isn’t a viking ship as the ship was built several hundred years after the viking age ended

[@olleronn616]

I worked at Gröna Lund for 5 seasons. Absolute blast, was incredibly rewarding to work the rides. Always glad to see the park is being appreciated!

[@carisard]

Skeppet (the haunted house boat) actually used to be a Chinese restaurant in Gothenburg!

[@carisard]

Jetpass VIP? I've been to Gröna Lund (I live in Stockholm) but normally it just says the ride name, not VIP. Did y'all go there with some special ticket?

[@maxhagenauer24]

9:04 does the life hill seriously just come out of the ground right next to the path like that so you can reach out and touch it?

[@lucawejle9659]

There’s a tall slippery fence around the lift motor but it’s kind of easy to go and jump on to the catwalk

[@detroitdiezel7856]

You guys are nuts going to amusement parks in cold weather! I could never do that. That's why I moved to Florida decades ago. I'm an annual pass holder to BGT and both Universal Parks, but if it's under 75° I keep my fat ass at home where it's warm and toasty!!

[@Bravesthrills]

You guys should make a part 3 sometime in the future! You guys could visit the uk!🎢

[@johnblackburn2060]

Thanks for wearing the Magic Mountain sweatshirt.

[@micahpilson9836]

Sarah was dead-on with Rick Astley's actual pitch from the song she was singing (we all know the one), which is impressive. The ability to do this is actually one of the key indicators of having perfect pitch, assuming she didn't hear the song itself within a few minutes of when this was filmed (having a fresh reference pitch in your head vs pulling it out of thin air at random being the key difference). Great voice either way!

[@DagAlbrecht]

You guys didn't ride the s&s launch and drop tower? it is my favorite drop tower in the park

[@Hugookas]

as a person that visits gröna Lund a lot I can see why they fell insane is uncomfortable but for me its my favourite ride there.

[@mattiasjohansson7718]

Jetline Will probably not be there next time you visit gröna Lund because it was involved in a fatal incident

[@lucawejle9659]

As a “local” I am really happy that you liked Gröna Lund but sad that I didn’t meet you.🙂

[@ballatongmmmm9876]

5:54 it is an abstract art exhibition

[@BenjiNerdyDog]

Just wanted to say I love your videos!

[@jakebrown2042]

What time of year was this filmed? Thanks

[@ballatongmmmm9876]

4:08 the ship you looked at capsized only a few minutes after leaving the port

[@GalliumGX]

What’s scarier is trying to get airtime on the sky jump drop towers and then going hands free and everything thought I would die when I did it

[@gracelol_2254]

The park that I've always wanted to visit! It's finally here! (By the way, why didn't y'all do Liseberg?)

[@lexiette8343]

It's unfortunate that JetLine had a derailment recently, 1 dead 4 severely injured, they're dismantling it but hopefully we will get a replacement now with the expansion the park will get :)

[@mattiasdanieldamsgaardwood1315]

The Vasa, which sank near Stockholm on its first sailing in 1628, was not a Viking ship. (The age of the Vikings ended in the 11th century.)

[@Nonfiction79]

Are we going to get part 2 of Singing the Greatest Showman on Wildfire? ‘Cause Sarah has a hell of a voice.

[@jakemilburn]

They have unisex bathrooms on my college campus in the US, same thing, the stall walls go to the ceiling, but there are also specific stalls with urinals too. I feel like with time and social acceptance, something like these should become standard.

[@joecoasters]

Was Twister closed?

[@CoasterStudios]

Yes

[@AdurianJ]

If you look at the wood carvings on the VASA not the main bits but the side bits it's very HR Geiger (the artist who created the Alien and Alien spaceship in the movie Alien)

[@alphawinnergx9127]

Great vlog ! What's your top 5 coasters at this place ?

[@RoinbinRobin]

I went on monster for the first time this year. man ive missed out on rollercoasters, It was SO fun

[@ThrillRidevibes]

Keep it up !!!

[@DrPepperone]

Max is one of the best fast food restaurants indeed

[@DrPepperone]

Ok but Vasa is not a “viking ship” 😝 Also it’s the most visited museum in Sweden. So already pretty popular I’d say.

[@rslotb]

Yeah I was thinking that. Looking it up, it's 17th century. But aparently the only preserved one. That's pretty cool nonetheless.

[@hedgehogcoasters7239]

9:12 we not gonna talk about the clown in the background giving out high fives

[@carysage]

Dang Sarah, Maybe you didn't have the words quite right but you hit the timbre of his voice exactly.

[@Chris0nF1re]

That hotel experience sounds like a typical video from PPPeter. His worst reviewed series is great.

[@23adam57]

If that boat museum was something you found really interesting, if you ever go back to England I definitely recommend to check out Portsmouth Historic Dockyard. It's about an hour drive from Thorpe Park, or a 40 minute drive from Paultons Park. It contains a couple of old ships, one being the Mary Rose (Henry VIII's old ship which sank off the shore Solent and was brought back, the ruins are on display) and HMS Victory (Lord Nelson's Ship, which you can board and look around on) there's also the HMS Warrior, and more, I just can't remember off the top of my head

[@carlmathias4208]

In my opinion Ikaros is definitely the best ride at gröna lund 😁

[@lgrcen2008]

What was that first broken hotel?

[@Joypyf]

I hate those drop towers too! 🙈

[@lipphil]

You have not done the other five coasters?

I wonder why you did not even talk about vilda musse, thst was actually my favourite roller coaster there, because it was just so wild in every way possible

[@CoasterStudios]

We didn’t ride it on this visit

The time I went to Grona Lund given its popularity and low capacity I couldn’t ride it either 🥲

Unisex toilets were commonplace in Australia when I grew up in the 80’s. Our toilets have floor to ceiling doors, unlike the bizarre small doors on US toilets. It was never thought unusual until the right wingers decided they don’t like the idea of unisex toilets.

How does MOnster compare to Black Mamba? Phantasialand has almost got the same problems with space they can build thrill rides on ;-) Of course Grönalund doesn't have 'peace and quiet loving' neighbours, accept for that wonderful museum... But
