I'm so glad you visited my home park! Probably one of the most underrated parks in the country. Pioneer Village is extra sweet. The "roller coaster" is one of the oldest out there.

[@missmeppsie3389]

I LOVE pioneer village it’s the coolest. Remember when they had old west shoot outs and wagon rides?

[@mrknowhere6457]

@@missmeppsie3389 I have so many memories of the park in general. I wish they still did shootouts, and that the Poineer Village railroad was still around. At least Lagoon has kept it well kept all these years. I really like the rattlesnake rapids area. I wish Jacob filmed more of pioneer village but oh well.

[@TheCarpetbagger]

It was a truly unique and amazing park

[@fdholley]

I'm sorry, that last coaster was too funny. You were dying 😂

[@MattHaynie]

I hold a special reverence for Lagoon. I deeply love and appreciate it. I'm 39 and I've gone every year since I was 4. It's like a living breathing journal. I can see little ghost versions of me running around. My favorite ride is the Jet Star 2. A humble little rollercoaster that makes up for it's size by high rates of change in direction; you feel like you're going faster than the bigger coasters. Way to be Jet Star 2 you beautiful little spitfire! ❤️

[@JoannaCorley]

I was just telling my husband about an amusement park my family stumbled upon while camping as a child. OMG it was LAGOON. I couldn't remember it's name. It wasn't as dark themed 49 years ago. Wow that aged me. Sharing this with my sister.

[@kylerflitton1971]

I love Lagoon! I used to work the carnival games for 4 years! Definitely a good park to visit

[@kiralynnsands762]

The dark rides look amazing, but my heart breaks for the wild cats in the small concrete cages

[@lcolsen22]

Utah residents have been trying for years to get Lagoon to either place the animals with the local zoo or provide better living areas than those terrible little cages :(

[@swamotts5281]

My honey used to manage there and he said, while the enclosures don't look too good, their homes in the back are very nice and the animals are very well taken care of. Howpfully that helps❤

[@lcolsen22]

@@swamotts5281 That does make me feel better! Thank you :)

[@mrknowhere6457]

Its unfair to judge without knowing background. They are taken better care of than most zoos, and not to sound like a jerk, but the people who complain about it don't really know what they are talking about. And they aren't there all year, they are taken elsewhere in the winter.

[@mrknowhere6457]

@@rodneytracy9498 indeed they do, I had a aunt who worked at lagoon for close to 20 years, and worked close to the animals, so it always annoys me when people say that they are being abused or something without knowing background

[@AlanTherby]

I'm not in a wheelchair, but I think that's a great idea. If you ever do make a dark ride, please try not to do a haunted house. Those things are a dime-a-dozen :-P

[@erinbailey4631]

Saying "I hate roller coasters" while sitting in one about to take off is SUCH A MOOD Edit: BIIIIG HECK NO to Cannibal. Holy crap dude. My heart rate increased and my hands and feet started sweating when you came to that opening drop at the very beginning. I would be CRYING. You rock Jacob!!

[@jmorgan5252]

Thank you Jacob for being so brave riding those amazing coasters and Dark rides! Awesome video!

[@lanternut]

So cool to see your take on Lagoon. I don’t think I’ve seen you ride so many rollercoasters in one theme park before. I hope You enjoyed your time here in Utah.

[@RogueRocker1]

The dark rides were great. The lighting was above average. I wonder how much of the scenes and animations were original to the Tracy installation. Disappointed to see the live animals in cages. Would have been more excited to see a working vortex tunnel instead. But that Park MAP! OMG!

[@mrknowhere6457]

The animals at lagoon are taken better care of then the animals at a local zoo. Sure, there cages are small, but it's not like they stay in those cages the whole year. Terror Ride has been completely changed over the years, but Dracula's Castle has lots of original scenes.

[@LindsayTVFilm]

Cannibal was actually built 100% in house and held the record for the steepest drop in the US until American Dream opened. Since that's closed right now because of the Unpleasantness, you currently have ridden the steepest drop on a roller coaster in the western hemisphere. From Shellraiser 121.5 degree drop, they are all only a degree or less difference before Cannibal at 116 degrees.

[@swamotts5281]

My husband was a manager here and absolutely fangirled when he found out you came here! We are huge fans of yours!

[@atronish]

Your best fear confrontation to date, congratulations I had lots of fun.

[@laytonlongwalker6005]

I’m glad you finally did Lagoon! The Tracy dark rides are my favorite as well. Seems he liked utilizing R.O.U.S.s- (Princess Bride Reference)...lol. So they updated Terroride a couple of years ago. They kept many of the components and did a facelift with a new theme.

[@burgerboy8460]

Yeah. Pretty sure that was because some guys thought it was too bad for kids.

[@elitetraveler11]

Very cool park. There is nothing funnier than watching you ride roller coasters.

[@AndersonsEpicAdventures]

[@RyanShyffer]

Soon as you hear "what are you!", you know Jacob is in haunted house fear mode.

[@Inamichan]

That Terroride darkride was really cool!

[@khowel1]

This too is my amusement park that I visited often when younger, we was on one of the dark rides when the ride lost power, they had to turn on the lights inside so that we could exit the building, makes you appreciate how much work goes in to the rides. There used to be a place in there called the "Fun House" that had slides and turntables that you would get on, it would spin very fast and you would try to be the last on it. Ahhh the memories, Thanks Carpetbagger!!!

[@Beastlango]

I think most people say the cannibal is the best ride now, beating out wicked after it came out.

Got to be the scariest roller coasters all in one place……………thanks for riding all of them!👍🤓

I have fond memories of Lagoon as a kid. Typically, the “dark rides” were for the heat of the day when we desperately wanted air conditioning. I have never been super creeped out by things like that, but that honking horn and headlights would get me every time.

[@MegaParkLover]

Great job! Great to see some of the original Bill Tracy displays retained in both rides. The Vamp is the catalog name of the female green bust in the facade of Terroride. I’ve always been fascinated by Dracula’s Castle because it was installed the same year Tracy died, and his talented team of young artisans got to do the creative and installation. Originally, the ride’s first two rooms had lots of strobes and mirrors. That’s since been replaced by some very effective scenes. Happy to see Tracy’s Collapsing Beam and Blasting Skeleton. Sad to see his original Torture Chamber apparently removed.

[@searcher00211]

They have been like that since i was old enough to ride them... good times.😊
