KMG XXL 'The Beast' Set-Up Timelapse

Take an inside look at how Australia's very first KMG XXL comes together to provide over 70 tons of extreme fun! The three trailer ride was first set up at the Melbourne Showgrounds for the 2016 Royal Melbourne Show.

[@HumanStateOfEmergency]

I must admit this is a beautiful piece of mechanical engineering

[@lespaulx]

aside from Incredible engineering, what amazed me the most is how they manage to keep the paint coat shining fresh like new, knowing that these machines suffer this assembling/dismantling/ traveling process every 2 weeks for almost eight months a year. This is an outstanding job!

[@efrind5642]

Ele Pequis it probably has a very thick layer of protective coating all over it lol

[@OGLukasCZ]

Yes, very thick powder coating, then custom art work and another clear coat. To keep the paint shinny use a good wax which make another protection layer on top of all.

[@muckybobbies]

I've worked on old rides, Dodgem tracks, waltzers etc, but this is in a different league! Fair play to the guys that dreamed it up, designed and built it, and to the men in this video who build it up and pull it down, respect people!

[@largowolf973]

I've set up a KMG Afterburner and it two trailer setup. I'm impressed at this ride has 3 trailers for its size. I like that the fact it is it own crane system to setup the ride. The LED Light package is Stellar.

[@TheCoolStuffHD]

I don't know what's more amazing. The people who assemble it or the people that engineered and built it.

[@HowlingMoonCinemas]

@TheCoolStuffHD I know, right!? Even the bad ass Chongo Kongo drawing blew me away!

[@revilo5614]

@TheCoolStuffHD This is what me and my dad do in England but we make rides sell them and also travel with are ride but yes with the cons tent rain in England the field that we open in is wet muddy and hard to set the ride in and when it’s time to go after about 2 week of being open the weight of the ride sinks into the field making it extremely hard to get the rides out

[@smecksy800]

I’d say both,

[@mk202]

I’m most amazed that the ride is designed and manufactured, and then someone figures out how to stack all the parts to it into a neat and concise rectangle that fits perfectly on a truck for transport.

[@davefroman4700]

Yeah that was damn good engineering the way they designed it to be its own crane.

[@wezzmusic]

Now we can see why these rides are so expensive to buy, set up and maintain. Anyone who complains about paying £5 or more to ride should watch this. Amazing.

[@1TreukFlyyy]

Do you know the price of this ride ? I really have no idea how much it might cost.

[@ldus]

I must say, these workers have done a fantastic job for putting “The Beast” together. 🙂

Nah you would also see these at small local fairs too

its a ride that it is it's own crane

It so cool how it comes together like that + nice backround song it fits the setup of the ride

[@ngashbambykenya4152]

How i wish i was able 2 buy one of this rides n bring it to Africa .....am sure it would put smiles on kids over here 🙌🇰🇪

[@smokescreenFromThe6ix]

If I had the means brother I would definitely setup a few parks over there!!!

Duh there are good parks in Africa lmao

[@MarkJMonaghan]

Well ask a fair man if he needs any workers

Wanna work on rides? Hit me up

[@Cccoast]

Woooowwwwwwww looks amazing

[@PlatinumEagleStudios]

WOW this thing is HUGE. Where i live we have an amusement park in Vancouver BC in canada called Playland and they recently added a park model KMG XXL ride just like this but it's called The Beast and doesn't have the jungle theme. The one Playland has is purple color but it's pretty much the same ride

[@westernridingclementine443]

Good work to everyone that helped

[@Lorddelordy]

I always go to the Melbourne show because I’m from Melbourne and live rides! This is the scariest ride In my opinion

[@adriansymcox1641]

fantastic upload very interesting and very hard working men

I love the beast it’s soo fun going up in high speed

[@Novakayne27]

It's amazing that the ride itself is also it's own crane assembly system

[@vidoverig7253]

Very nice machine!

[@jeffsthisandthatchannel]

This looks like a major undertaking to set this up.

[@Tairqthephotoman2024]

Amazing dude

[@ThemeParksAndAttractions]

Imaging having to set that up each time... ccrraazzyy!

[@Sc00terNut]

This one looks like the Beast at Vancouver's Playland except that the one in Vancouver is a permanent park version and two rows of seats face inward while the other two rows face outward. It's an amazing and fun ride, probably my favourite at Playland.

[@chrismaiorino7737]

This was the first version and then the one at Myrtle Beach used almost identical art.

[@edz_gaming7915]

AUSTRALIA MELBOURNE SHOW I GO THERE EVERY YEAR, I can tell it’s the Melbourne show by the big pie on top of the red arms

[@felsinferguson1125]

Having done a season on the road with a show where our "nastiest" ride to set up/tear down was a super-himalaya (Two 50' boxes of cars, scenery, lights, sound system, and canvas, plus the centerload with sweeps, track, etc on a third trailer - 4 "regulars" plus 12-16 greenhelp, plus assorted show-folk who happened to wander by at the right moment for a "Hey, git over here - need an extra pair of hands for 5-10 minutes to get this fiddly bit done!" could get it set up in about 38 hours, and take it down in about 35) I'm left wondering what the "actual clock-time" for setup on this thing was. Looks like at least two (but I think I lost track, so maybe it was three) overnights, so I'd guess somewhere in the neighborhood of 50-60 hours of setup time? Ain't gonna be doing many circus jumps with THIS ride as part of the show, I can tell ya that much!

[@chrismaiorino7737]

Fastest we can usually pack the ride up is in 5.5 hours, we take our time with setup, but these days we can usually get it finished in around 10 hours and that’s including washing etc.

[@Tibo11]

can someone explain how the trailers are so precisely placed that everything fits nicely??

[@karenthompson4342]

I went on this ride at the 2019 Sydney Royal Easter Show and a kid passed out like 6 times 😂

[@leonor7239]

If you comepare this to freak out this is gonna have way more g forces compared to freak out and its almost as tall as the one in six flags

[@karenthompson4342]

@@leonor7239 yep went on it this year and it went for nowhere near as long due to the 2 HOUR LONG LINES... but yes way stronger than freak out buttt i think i had more fun on freak out because it was less thrilling and more uncontrollably laughing with my friends.

[@pastinakenpetra8566]
