I rode EVERY Mountain Coaster in Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge!

I rode every single mountain coaster in the Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge area to see which one is the best!

I really enjoy your channel. I am blind and also autistic and really love the sound of the coasters. My dad and I go to Gatlinburg and pigeon Forge a lot to ride him but we haven’t rolled some of these so we’re going to try to find them and write them and then I’m gonna post them on our KZbin channel when we do. I really want you to know I love your channel this is awesome thank you for making a person like me have a happy day. This is the best I’ve seen yet. Mom and dad and I watched it together and they explained how the coasters worked which made me smile from ear to ear.😮

[@CousinLarrySitsThere]

I hope you can get this response. I love his voice too. He sounds like a narrator for a fairy tale or a movie trailer. Specifically, Hoyt Axton. Stay Well

[@SmoakinThrills]

@@CousinLarrySitsThereboth of these comments made my heart smile. Thank you.

[@middletnpyro]

super frustrating when you have to slow down for someone, especially when the operators stack up cars so tight it's unavoidable, smokey mountain has always been my favorite

[@henrysmalley6084]

I’m glad you uploaded this because it saves me the trouble of riding them. I’ll still probably ride one just to feel it but now I see that they aren’t worth it. Luckily only a 2 hour drive for me

[@DrDre.]

Man thank you so much for this video. You just saved me WORLD of upset-ness! I was so focused on Ripley, I didn't Even know these other ones existed. I'm planning a trip there this Halloween. Thank you brotha for the great insight!

[@jamesflanagan3086]

The Ripley's coaster used to be Hungry Bear. We loved it because you got as many rides on the coster as you could in an hour for one price. We went during a dead time and made MANY trips down. :-)

[@jamesflanagan3086]

Oops, Rowdy Bear. Not Hungry Bear.

[@BaronEurchild]

Doing research for an upcoming family trip. I am so glad you posted this.

[@SmoakinThrills]

Glad it was helpful!

[@SmoakinThrills]

And I hope y’all have a great time!

[@kdr11112]

The GOAT COASTER is definitely my favorite! Cant wait to go back and ride it again, and try some of the ones you reviewed here!

[@jamesflanagan3086]

Goats on The Roof was our favorite! Especially at night!

[@mitchellries256]

So far, I've been on the Smoky Mountain Alpine Coaster and the Goat Coaster with the latter one being my favorite of the two. My goal is to ride at least one new mountain coaster every time I am in the area until I've done all of them. By the way, you missed out on at least three others; the Gatlinburg Mountain Coaster, the Tennessee Flyer at Ober Gatlinburg, and the Rail Runner at Anakeesta. A new one also opened in Pigeon Forge not too long ago called the Lost Mine.

[@SmoakinThrills]

Yeah. Soon after posting this I was made aware of the ones I missed. Don’t worry, I’m planning a sequel. The mission remains incomplete and I cannot stand for that.

[@joefowler8464]

Hellbender at Anakeesta is another one. I did not know about Wild Stallion.

[@arlichar11]

i rode goats on a roof one thinking it was most tame, it was terrifying just on way up..

[@SherryBaby2003]

So cool!! I didn’t realize these types of coasters existed, and so many of them in Gatlinburg!!!!

[@m.hreels9822]

Thank you for letting me know that they make you ride twice for for the first one. And thank you for showing the line. Most people don't show that, and I was wondering what they look like. Definitely subscribing! Awesome shirt by the way!

[@SmoakinThrills]

I Heckin love that shirt

[@arthurvasey]

Two rides per person? Do they have measures put in place to stop tightwads coming with two kids and dividing the ride between two kids? And no way of being able to bring four kids and putting two kids into one cart? One person per cart, two rides per person? And no way can an adult ride with a kid - single riders only! In your imagination, take some of the best bits of each coaster and create a massive marathon one in a VR environment - with the option of daylight or night time with an even more fantastic light show than that - it’s VR, so you can do anything! It’s also in the setting of your own home, so no need to drive for miles, no queues, no need to spend loads of cash or anything - also no height restrictions!

[@EveDavis53]

I'm so glad you posted this. I'm headed that way this weekend and I was disappointed by the weight limit on the Anakeesta mountain coaster, but after seeing all these it looks like the weight limits are much higher on most others so I'm looking forward to riding one or two!

[@SmoakinThrills]

YOU CALLIN ME FAT!? Kidding. Hope you had a great time.

[@SSchus87]

​@@SmoakinThrillssure sounds like it. Kinda dickish if you ask me... I however, absolutely loved this video! Enough so that I have subscribed to your channel!

[@katiechisholm]

The 7-8 minutes on the Smokey mountain alpine coaster factors in the 5 minutes it takes to climb to the top :)

[@SSchus87]

Thank you for this video! We're going in 2 weeks. You saved me a ton of time, plus, I enjoyed this immensely! Question: Explain the drift track part to me, please. I know the movies, but how does it relate to the coaster?

[@mickij3]

Thank you so much for this video!! Super enjoyable and very helpful!! 😊

[@SmoakinThrills]

Thank YOU for watching!

[@CousinLarrySitsThere]

I was asked by the family reunion to find out the top coasters in this area for our visit next month. I'm thankful you made this video. Your voice sounds like a young Hoyt Axton. That's a compliment, you would gel well with my family. Sending support to your channel and your travels. Thanks again.

[@Thats_That_Dude]

Great informative video!

[@TennesseeTrio]

So much fun! Each one is very different! I think I’m partial to the Smoky Mountain Alpine Coaster 😊

[@AnnMitt]

Appreciate this video! My family and I are driving to Gatlinburg from Michigan in September, and we definitely want to do the coasters 🎢!!

[@gillypizzo]

🎉thank you! I’m planning a birthday trip and this definitely helps!

[@AJJA68]

Rocky Top is probably the worst one we've been on, too broken up like you said. Our favorite so far is Wild Stallion, then Smoky Mountain for the top ones.

[@skixd88]

Great video !! Subbed 👍

[@CubbyTech]

Was hoping you were going to mention the price of each - seems like each one will cost $20-30. The double-up one is sort-of weird. Thanks for sharing your experience with us!

[@CountfromMiami]

Thank you for this video! I was wondering which coasters I wanted to ride and you have did the work for me. And for that, I have subscribed...

[@SmoakinThrills]

Have fun!

[@sandraweilbrenner67]

I just subbed. I had a friend go down the one with the lights last Halloween and they had scare actors where it slows down lol

[@ABlossom1215]

Yep, the lit track is cool.

[@SteveHolst]

Helices is the proper plural of helix. Awesome video. I'm so jealous we have nothing like that where I'm at.

[@SmoakinThrills]

Nailed it.

[@SightseeingWithSavvy]

My kids tried the Rocky Top at night and liked it but it was a semi long wait... that was also Spring Break

[@shaunmac2999]

What video are the ones you were talking about at the end? I can’t seem to find it.

[@SmokyMountainStarlight]

❤Absolutely love your video, i thought of doing it myself. Ya beat me to it. Such a great job! Wild Stallion is probably my favorite but i truly love them all.

[@SmoakinThrills]

Just subbed! Thanks for the support!

[@SmokyMountainStarlight]

@@SmoakinThrills thank you! 😊

[@lydiaburlingame5265]

That was really a cool video, thank you , they all look fun , I liked the one with all the lights ! I have a question? Are they rough on the body , I have back problems would they hurt my back more ?

[@angelagm566]

Lord, please don't let a bear or bob cat come across their paths.

[@td2835]

I like your video....I didn't find the video of Rowdy Bear coaster

[@SmoakinThrills]

It’s in the DOLLY IS HERE video

[@CoopyKat]

I got scared watching these for the first time on other channels, but yours made me relaxed, because you're talking as you're going down. Somehow relieves the stress, maybe I could actually get on these one day, I think I could handle it! I'm curious how they get the cars back up the mountain. I also noticed ski lifts going up, is that how you get to the top of these rollercoaster sites?

[@SmoakinThrills]

You can! They look scarier on video than they are in real life, I promise.

[@CoopyKat]

@@SmoakinThrills Oh cool, that's good to know thanks!

[@SmokiesPlus]

Hello! Would I be able to use about 10 seconds of your external footage of the Ripley's Mountain Coaster? Going to post a video and missed getting that footage. Loved this video and absolutely loved your energy!

[@SmoakinThrills]

Sure!

[@Constantino619]

Rocky Top was making me mad for you lol. Cant even enjoy the action. Thanks for this great vid.

[@brittanyreed4377]

Me and my kids are there right now, my kids are wanting to ride one..which one do you recommend for a kid that’s 7 that has been on big roller coasters and doesn’t get scared on any ride and a 5 year old who likes rides but not ones that are too fast 😂 I need to find one that they both will have fun

[@SmoakinThrills]

I think Goat Coaster is the most “intense”. But overall I’d recommend the Wild Stallion at SkyLand Ranch.

[@MrButterybrandon]

How much would you say it was all together? If you had to take a guess 👀

[@SmoakinThrills]

More than I’d like to admit.

[@terabynum5685]

For the safety

[@SixOThree]

How much brake were you applying during these runs?

[@SmoakinThrills]

None except for when that one lady forced me to slow down so I wouldn’t hit her

[@SixOThree]

@@SmoakinThrills Thanks! That really helps me get a sense of what these are about.

[@SmoakinThrills]

@@SixOThree that’s why the forced slow downs on that one long one were so annoying.

[@becaboo211]

Which is the best mountain coaster for chickens?

[@SmoakinThrills]

Chickens are birds and therefore cannot ride mountain coasters.

[@becaboo211]

Ok got me on that one...

[@SmoakinThrills]

@@becaboo211 no but for real, if you can do one you can do all of them.

[@MRSTEEL15]

Pigeon forge or Gatlinburg? Which is your #1 and #2 to visit? TY I SUBSCRIBED

[@SmoakinThrills]

I gotta give it to PF purely for Dollywood. But Gatlinburg is a wonderful town. And to top it off, they are literally just a few minutes apart from one another.

[@MRSTEEL15]

@@SmoakinThrills did my research and being in PF means you're in between Gatlinburg and Sevierville

[@SmoakinThrills]

@@MRSTEEL15 not accurate. You can drive straight from PF through the national park to Gat in about ten mins. Sevierville>PF>Gatlinburg. In that order on the highway.

[@MRSTEEL15]

@@SmoakinThrills I just said that

[@joekaroly9472]

You should go to ceder point

[@caroldennis6749]

I just wonder how they keep bears and mountain lions away from the track....

[@SmoakinThrills]

Bears and mountain lions don’t go out of their way to mess with us. Most interactions with them are over food or because WE wandered into THEIR house. I wouldn’t expect a wild animal out there to want anything to do with something this loud, covered in lights, and constantly surrounded by yelling humans.

[@davidurban6813]

I dont understand why all the slow downs especially when none was in front of you.

[@SmoakinThrills]

Me either. It was the only one with forced brakes. Really ruined the ride for me.

[@ingazagrjadina79]

Krutunobrauksanutev😉🫢🫢🤗🎢.

[@tomfaro6259]

I'm sure that was very expensive and overpriced.

[@joans5619]

I don’t like the slow down. We are going there in august so this helped me decide…. NO thanks.
