GhostRider Wooden Roller Coaster POV HD 1080p Knott's Berry Farm

Buena Park, Calif. Knott’s Berry Farm’s classic wooden roller coaster, GhostRider, makes its long-awaited return on June 11, 2016 following a massive nine-month restoration project. GhostRider is the fastest, tallest and longest wooden roller coaster on the west coast with 4,533 feet of track. When riders accelerate down the first 108 foot drop in one of three all-new “ore car” coaster trains and hit speeds of over 55 miles per hour they’ll know why the west just got a whole lot wilder! www.knotts.com...

Rode this today! You floated in your seat for a while and your stomach churned and it felt awesome!

[@sixtocortescastaneda4169]

That, my friend, is called airtime.

[@tad2021]

Wow, that looks smoother than it was when it opened.

[@YaGirlJuniper]

Ain't it beautiful? Woodies are making a comeback, and with modern prefab technology, maintaining these old beasts is no longer going to be the costly nightmare it once was. With this old classic refurbished, we have ourselves a real winner once more.

After not having gone on this ride for years, I finally went on it a few hours ago. I was very apprehensive about going on because I remember it to be back-breaker, but I'm happy to say the refurbishing of this ride really improved it. My back was perfectly okay afterwards and it was one hell of a ride. I'm really glad I chose to ride it as opposed to skipping it. I can't wait to go back on it.

[@adferxis]

it used to be so god damn rough

[@aandrewgarciaa_]

its scarier than it looks. but it's really fun to ride on.

[@Slithium]

I was pretty much levitating on those hills

[@tiffanydesgroseilliers7339]

Especially on the second half

[@janninejaime3500]

Omg same and like I was really scared so I squeezed my sis arm while she was just SCREAMING

[@delilah3249]

Slithium really? Huh I don’t remember getting airtime on this?

[@montezoomasrevengefanboy6477]

This thing has some great airtime, not like a RMC, but it’s definitely there

[@kevinstuart4264]

@@delilah3249 it got gci'd a bit back, also you probably got stapled

[@sonimatic]

Wow... you guys did an amazing job restoring my favorite wooden coaster. It looks better than ever now.

[@crystal-bf9bx]

I've been on this ride before omg it's so fun

[@afoxandawolf9332]

Damian Sigala I know right I went on this ride on April 7 when we had a field trip to Knotts and I was literally just praying that this ride would be over. So fast and the drops!!!!

[@jaclynroslynn]

Damian Sigala same 😂

+Kylie Garcia ITS SO FUN IVE BEEN ON IT

[@lunaliang8859]

It looks less scarier than it actually is...

[@lizmanjarini1864]

What

[@bambam4870]

Thats a damn lie

[@Sunny-sd1oh]

True in real life it scary as fuck.

[@deanpatton2158]

It's just the vibration of the wood and truly what your opinion on what scary is😊

[@TheBossPlayer]

Starry Cosmic its scary a ffff

[@MsOverachiever9513]

I went on this last night at Knott's Scary Farm and it was wild and fun! And this is coming from someone who's isn't a big fan of roller coasters. Lol

[@lizmanjarini1864]

Mrs. Dean Winchester I'm so realived to hear that I promised my dad the next time we go I'll go on it with him

[@theweirdone242]

Only scary thing for me was the first drop

[@just-a-silly-goofy-guy]

Lenny Navarrete I think he’s taking about the Halloween theming they do

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

This looks so much better!

[@CORO-mz5ks]

No video can do this ride justice

[@nickmiraglia3730]

I truly love this ride as a local to knotts. Word of advice, if you want to have a much more intense experience, go in the very back row. You get absolutely slingshotted

[@mayaabdaljawwad]

This ride is legit worth the wait, I waited like 70min to ride this thing and I loved it

[@ryangrover1081]

I was tenth in line Monday evening when it opened. Amazingly smooth, possibly my new all-time favorite.

[@NickyD]

any airtime

[@seanlewis1148]

+Nicky D YES INDEED!!! I must say, GHOSTRIDER is the perfect example of what wooden coaster should be like!!!! If you haven't ridden it yet, come ride it, you DEFINITELY will not be disappointed!!!

[@clairemarie5628]

The first drop seems sooo much bigger in real life

[@robin_goodfellow8192]

just tried this one two days ago... tip to self: don't eat a ton of fries in line for these kinda things...

[@bonesmalone5802]

I rode this right after the retracking and since i was still a fragile little boy, even though i hadn't eaten anything, i di feel a tiny bit nauseous. Though, admittedly, that was the most intense ride i had ridden at the time.

[@timeforbeans]

Ride this in the back! I rode this for the first time ever this year Oct 2018, and our first ride was in the last car.....OMG WOW! I think this is the fastest wooden roller coaster I have ever been on. We seriously felt like we were going to fly right off the track at any moment, whipping around the corners. This is so amazing! I want to ride it again! Great Job Knotts Berry Farm. We loved it!

[@kevinceniceros3618]

Best time to ride that ride is at night. There are no lights on the ride except for the dinky string of lights on the lift hill. So you can't see when the drops are coming.

[@almaalcantara9873]

Best ride in KNOTTS berry farm

[@rileywashere91]

my very first non-disney coaster. Back before California adventure existed. I was so scared but to this day it remains my favorite coaster.

[@Howlingburd19]

It’s so cool how almost the whole ride takes place under the supports!

[@samanthafulton8565]

I went on this ride two days ago and it was so fast omg

[@Ilovesoccer397]

Sam Hemmings same

[@ps4gaming204]

Curious Chris it's fun like that tho...😐

[@mattkincaidstudio3802]

We just rode this the other night - it's awesome! I forgot how truly FAST Ghost Rider is, and it is a WAY SMOOTHER ride than it used to be. Fantastic renovation!!!

[@thederpcastdami]

this ride is simply amazing. the lap bars hold you in place perfectly so your hands can go up. definetly worth any wait for the ride

[@404-snk]

The first time I went on this ride, I was about 7 years old, riding alone, while my parents sat together in front of me. At the time, Knott’s recorded your reaction for about 5-10 seconds, and all I remember was my parents and their friends mocking me. 10 years later, this ride still gives me anxiety. Fuck Ghost Rider. I’ll still get on though, mama ain’t raise no bitch.

[@joannarose3775]

I'm going to knotts on Monday with all of the kids in my grade and tbh I'm kinda scared to get on the " scary rides " 😂

[@rayaanali6083]

None of the rides are scary there there all super fun

[@rayaanali6083]

+Rayaan Ali trust me I've been front seat on most of them

[@YaGirlJuniper]

Front seat is the least scary seat though. The back is where all the Gs are!

[@roseBlight13]

Front seat's not scary. It's common knowledge that the back is always the best.

[@NG4005-m3w]

same here but middle school and the little guys

[@TheMcgillacuddy]

I just got on it yesterday and this ride is killer. It's the best coaster in the park. Yes even better than Xcelerator. This video makes it look tame but when you get on it, it's vicious asf

[@tlhdcross2274]

Best roller coaster ever. I went yesterday and this was my third roller coaster that i've ever been on

[@MatthewGottula]

Wow! Great restoration Knott's! Love the elimination of the mid-brake run, the momentum just keeps going and going and going until the very end. LOVE IT. Can't wait to ride this weekend.

[@marks4954]

Just rode this ride today and it is completely smooth and is now enjoyable to put your hands up in the air the whole ride. One of the best rides in the park now!!!

[@cheesethrower]

Oh man this looks so much better now! Holy cow GCI did an AMAZING job with this.

[@mattsanders9597]

Absolutely love this roller coaster. It’s a blast!

[@st4ur]

I hate when its going down and I hold my breath idky , anyone agree?

[@estherpalomino9006]

Me so Me

[@Անի-ո3մ]

the first time you get on this ride its terrifying in a "omg why did I agree to this" way, but after that you keep wanting to ride it :D its super fun !

[@batbeattm9581]

Oh my gosh, I remember before I went on this ride I thought it was never-ending. And that fact that it was a wooden roller coaster made me say "hell no." But one day during a summer camp field trip, we went here. I didn't want to be a baby in front of other people, so I went on withy friend and other people from our camp. It wasn't as bad as I thought, and now I love the ride.

[@stoney5361]

I'm so hyped, I'm going to knotts next Tuesday! I can't wait to ride this!

[@simonthedemonprince7026]

I went on this when it was raining, it was my first time too. I cried

[@rayannmarquez9553]

when you watch videos like these cause youre too scared to actually do it:)

[@JonAutopsy]

CANNOT WAIT TO RIDE IT AGAIN!!!

[@mj-yd9lk]

Shhhhh!! *asmr* How did the person not scream or make any noise I would be screaming my head off!! Good job

[@esthcord4463]

I rode this 3 times today. Fav ride of knotts

[@jaydenrblx7338]

This is my favorite coaster in the park

[@chrisc9670]

This ride was amazing! I'm so glad I came when there were no crowds so I got to ride it 4 times!

[@blueparrot205]

when i first went on this ride, it kept going up and up and i thought it would gradually go down but all of a sudden a huge drop happens, i was shook

[@doomguy1014]

I went on this ride... It's INSANE😱😱😱😱

[@walterwhitecookingchannel8912]

DOOM GUY 101 Damn, even Doom Guy is scared of this

[@csxmle]

Went I went on ghost rider, I was soooooo happy. It’s the most fun ride I’ve ever rode.

[@sierragarcia1044]

glad ghostrider is open again😄

[@jasminandjianamercado_harr8032]

I went here for my 6-10 birthdays and I rode this ride at midnight and it was really fun!!

[@TheHaloRed]

It does look smoother! Bravo, Knott's!

[@InvisiMan2006]

Holy smokes that looks like a new coaster! Great job on the restoration!

[@CrazyBreadWithSauce]

Rode this at night when the track was lit up. Pretty awesome time. Rode it twice.

[@Wilhelm1407Coasters]

It looks absolutely amazing with its new track! 😀

[@Kinzsters172]

I went on ghost rider the other day. BEST RIDE EVER

[@maximus_2009]

Looks and sounds smooth.. Can't wait to ride it.

[@djlowtek]

Thank you so much for removing the mid-course brakes. It used to be so disappointing practically stopping before going into the second half.

[@asmrapple5927]

First drop always makes my stomach drop, more than any other ride

[@ThemeParkTracker]

The best thing about this attraction is that’s non stop action!

[@mattsynth]

Nice long ride.

[@hi-cf3vz]

i didn’t want to wait 130 minutes for this thank you

[@mickeymouse4134]

Knott bad at all! I love the hills!

[@danielguizar360]

Wow this looks way smoother since the last time I got on. That was one of my main complaints about this ride that it was too bumpy. Can't wait to go tomorrow!!

[@joesilverstein2548]

back when I was 10 I was scared of rides like Thunder Mountain Railroad and Pirates of the Caribbean. Then when I was about 13 I started going on stuff like Space Mountain/the Jaguar, then when I got to high school my friends started taking me on rides like California Screamin, Tower of Terror, and even Silver Bullet. Now when I go on this ride, I sit there laughing the whole time! I went from being afraid of any ride that was even a little bit scary to liking actual thrill rides:) but I still won’t go on any spinning carnival rides, those are terrifying

[@bonesmalone5802]

Same here. i'll go on Xcelerator and Hang Time, but wont go on the flash at SFMM

[@lisettesandoval2889]

yikes, i’m a freshman and i barely got on The Incredicoaster and Guardians of the Galaxy: Mission Breakout, they were so much fun but i’m terrified to get on rides like this

[@chayshai]

Haven't been on this ride(or Knott's) in 6 years!!! Will going next month and glad to know it's smoother!

[@TS_Mind_Swept]

I like how the video in the station still doesn’t have this version of the ride

[@Supatsu]

Ah, I visited in 2015 when it was at it's peak of rough-ness. I had such a rough ride lol. I should've waited a year to go!! I'll have to come back sometime :]

[@shriakov4835]

Im in my hotel right now so exited!

[@shanecornmuffin6808]

Is it just me or is this much better at nighttime

[@TomTom-nj8dr]

Shane Corn muffin it is better cus you don’t what is going on haha

[@xxamazingjayxx]

the smoothness

[@andreaquesada362]

This ride is so fun it’s one of my favorite rides!!!!

[@wsn_hq765]

Sick ass ride

[@deathnote58]

Omg I went on this the first time I went to knotts and it was SO fun! I'm going to knotts for the third time next Monday!

[@BeastModeIsaac]

It is a good clean smooth ride in this video.

[@rowanmackenzie1550]

So me and my choir go to knotts every year and for 3 years now it has been closed so it makes me so sad!

[@therealmagiccheeseburger3900]

Best wooden coaster.

[@montezoomasrevengefanboy6477]

Way smoother than it used to be

[@LlamaCoasters]

RIP "the drop"... Glad to see it refurbished, though!

[@JH-ng3hj]

the drop is unchanged.. it's exactly the same.

[@ryanthemepark]

What? More like welcome back "the drop". The trims are completely gone, so you flying into the second half of the ride. No more being brought to a complete stop mid ride!

[@LlamaCoasters]

Ryan Childers True, but I believe they reprofiled that section.. meaning no more crazy intense gs in the back. Either way, the 2nd half of the ride is gonna be amazing with these new changes

[@LlamaCoasters]

jeremiah h Not the drop... "The Drop" is different

[@danielsanders3457]

+jeremiah h "The drop" on Ghostrider isn't the main one, it's the insane one right after where the mid-coarse used to be, if u went on this before the mid-coarse was put there you would know

[@brennacaitlin]

This ride is the best wooden rollercoaster!

[@scsstudios]

Not too shabby, KBF. Now lets hope the maintenance crew can KEEP it running this way.

[@user-vg6ni5mn9n]

Loved the ride🤘❤

[@IERailfan]

Worth the 2 hour wait!

[@randomuser1687]

This ride taught me what it meant to love hate something

[@noth_inf3367]

It’s sad it’s closing near the end of 2018, even though I’ve never gone on it, this was one of knott’s most iconic rides

[@Aatrains512]

[@keemshippuuden]

This ride is the scariest at the park

[@Zy49276]

2 hour wait for 2 min ride. Worth it

Amazing and smooth super fun. My gf and I went last week and it really runs amazing now.

[@alishenashereyt3504]

Hey guys! Going to Knotts Berry Farm tomorrow and wanted to go on Ghost rider but it might be to "intense" for me.. if I cant handle rlly fast rollercoasters and bigger drops than Jurassic park could I handle this ride? When I was on space mountain I almost passed out sooo

This thing looks like it hauls! I rode it last summer and the ride felt like it needed some much needed love. Gold Striker at Great America, look out because you have some potential competition at your sister park in socal :)

[@esthcord4463]

I remember I when on this ride when I was 8 years old. It was so scary I wanted to get off yet I wanted to go again when it was over

[@kylesmith6058]

it makes the ride go more faster now

[@existentialnikki4586]

I was on this at night not too long ago (June 21, 2016) and it was SUPER scary but super fun :D
