Funfair Ride Build Up Video - James Danter's EXTREME - Winter Wonderland Stoke

[@LiftHillsandThrills]

Enjoy this funfair ride build-up as this Extreme makes its debut in Stoke on Trent this winter

[@SamM-oh2cx]

The planning is just off the charts when it comes to accuracy! Imagine having the job of having a list of rides and a certain amount of land to accommodate them in and then having to work out the space each ride needs to fold out and run within all whilst taking into account living wagons, generators, food / game stalls and patrons! Just blows my mind thinking about it because you can’t just take down a day or two build if you are a few inch’s out! Phenomenal planning skills to the millimetre! Brilliant capture, thanks for making and sharing Sean!

[@LiftHillsandThrills]

@@SamM-oh2cx My pleasure and I know! Never seen a tape measure used so much!

[@TomW0odD2]

Nice one Sean ! Thanks for sharing 👍

[@LiftHillsandThrills]

@@TomW0odD2 My pleasure!

[@Competent-rides]

great to see you covering the fairs aswell as the parks 👍

[@LiftHillsandThrills]

Of course! :) I asked last year if I could cover the build ups because of the amount of effort that goes on behind the scenes that goes severely under appreciated deserves to be showcased. It's great to see them build these rides up and the videos are like some weird funfair ASMR aha

[@markgawne5919]

Really enjoyed watching this. Hate rides that spin but love the engineering that goes into them. Really do wish Liverpool would do something more like this to improve what we have available

[@LiftHillsandThrills]

Makes you appreciate all the hard work that goes on behind the scenes

[@DjShamusUK]

awesome sauce sean cheers for the Vlog, i hope get down there this year for a day out ;-)

[@LiftHillsandThrills]

@@DjShamusUK Always a nice little festive funfair

[@trickyuk386]

Didn’t think we were having a winter wonderland this year with planning being given so late.. and no talk of it until last week..They’ve got their work cutout to be ready for the 22nd

[@LiftHillsandThrills]

@@trickyuk386 More than enough time, they smash it every year within a 2 week turnaround

[@xsm5525]

last time I went on one of these rides I actually thought I was gonna pass out. only later on in life did I realise I actually have high blood pressure, probably not the best thing to go on. bit of a shame really cause I loved the speed and motion of it.

[@LiftHillsandThrills]

They're ridiculously intense, couldn't hack a long cycle on one of these with my head! aha

[@altontowersfanpage]

HI SHAWN I just want to let you know it is a bit late but I am so happy that you have made a complaint to @out ofsociety this was a terrible thing that had happen last you and I so proud of you for phoning them up and especially saying let me know what prison there in thank you for complaining about these people it means a lot to many people that like theme park Lots of love from Alton towers Fanpage ❤❤ 😊

[@LiftHillsandThrills]

haha hey! That was quite some time ago now! They had a call button on their Instagram page so I thought 'why not' haha Towers seem to be giving themselves bad press of their own accord this season, let's hope they can turn it around in the seasons to come. Best! Sean

[@tayo0404]

I always wondered how do they set the flat rides up

[@LiftHillsandThrills]

Me too, hence wanting to know haha it’s like a big jigsaw puzzle

[@CatsnCoasters]

Let's get HO-HO-HOLLLLLLLY! 🤣

[@LiftHillsandThrills]

@@CatsnCoasters 😂😂

[@alexanderjones459]

First time i’ll be going this year, can’t wait! Think i read on their site that the red devil air maxx will be there. 😅

[@LiftHillsandThrills]

That’s going to Norwich I believe, there’s a little confusion on the website

[@alexanderjones459]

@ ah no way! Will it be a booster then?

[@AmanPacaj]

New video tommorow

[@LiftHillsandThrills]

@@AmanPacaj Quite possibly 👀

[@AmanPacaj]

Okay

[@MikeSmith-ct7fy]

OH NO SPINJAM IS BACK FROM THE DEAD!

[@LiftHillsandThrills]

Ha!

[@MikeSmith-ct7fy]

@@LiftHillsandThrills I know right

[@marcdawson4635]

Great video👍👍. It can never be underestimated how hard these guys work all year round in all weathers. 👌👌🎠🎅🎢

[@LiftHillsandThrills]

@@marcdawson4635 One of the reasons I decided to document it last year. A lot of hard work severely under-appreciated, these guys are great at what they do and it’s pretty epic seeing these transportable rides come to life

[@marcdawson4635]

@LiftHillsandThrills Thanks for capturing it again this year, it's great to watch.👍👍🎅🎠

[@LiftHillsandThrills]

@ I don’t know the entire arrival schedule but I’ll try to get as much as I can with as much as I’m told 😅 wish they had a list like - Monday - this being built - Tues etc aha

[@Ansaf-t8v]

Winter wonderland hanley 2023❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@LiftHillsandThrills]

Yesssss

[@Robg60]

Amount of wooden packers scares me 😂😂

[@LiftHillsandThrills]

I'd rather the ride to be balanced and grounded as that whole car park is a spirit levels worst nightmare!

[@Robg60]

@ 💯

[@OnTheGroundsUK]

the packers are perfectly safe , once the full weight of the ride is on them they are as solid as building up on solid ground , plus they are checked daily as part of the rides daily checks

[@calamitycoasters2591]

i've seen a list of rides on their website which includes airmaxx, red devil and this extreme. Do you know if this is confirmed or not? because if it is thats a killer lineup especially compared to last year,

[@LiftHillsandThrills]

Not sure which website you're looking at the WW Stoke one has the Extreme, Freak Out, Super Trooper and a few others. See here - winterwonderlandstoke.com/rides-and-attractions/

[@calamitycoasters2591]

yeah for some reason norwich's lineup was under one section on stokes website lineup looks okay but not brilliant

[@LiftHillsandThrills]

@ There’s a nice mix, Norwich is always the bigger of the two events

[@AmanPacaj]

What kinda rides are there can you make a nother video

[@LiftHillsandThrills]

Full line up can be found here - winterwonderlandstoke.com/rides-and-attractions/

[@AmanPacaj]

New video today

[@LiftHillsandThrills]

Might do, might not do

[@AmanPacaj]

Hoe about the other rides

[@LiftHillsandThrills]

We'll be documenting as many as we can but we won't be on site every single day. Today the Extreme was the first ride to be set-up. The Freak Out will follow. Hoping to grab the Super Trooper build-up but it all depends on when they can accommodate me on site / when the ride arrives and if it matches my own schedule. Thanks for watching!

[@Edwardknowsitall]

More funfair videos much better that rubbish theme Parks Olympia looping coaster is the best coaster in the world and it can be moved

[@LiftHillsandThrills]

@@Edwardknowsitall 😂 now now, they’re appreciated equally. I’ll see what I can do about more vids
