Plopsaland De Panne Vlog June 2016

[@CJayyTheCreative]

Still one of the greatest playlist. The energy and the first time experiences are so nostalgic. Half a decade later!

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Brilliant trip this was!

[@Travelmatt23]

Plopsaland looks amazing. I particularly liked the rabbit ride. Anubis though looks amazing.

[@KayoMichiels]

55:26 every ride is themed around a tv personality, this star flyer ride is (now) themed around ROX: basically a kids version of Knight Rider.

[@markreed9157]

First coaster looks like a great starter coaster for kids and to get them in the mood for the launch type of coaster. Loved it.

[@theMrRook]

Those sheep animatronics were amazing!

[@floorinsulani5915]

I love these vlogs, especially the ones that include onride footage!! :D

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Thank you!

[@williamgoos130]

Victor's Race is a new coaster. Plopsa asked Zierer to build the same exact coaster from years ago. Only for Plopsa, Zierer builded the old Tivoli model a few years ago.

[@bartdebaare9801]

I thought they only re-themed the whole coaster? Another train and another color of the track?

[@DannyMNL]

The reason for all the "random" theming and the truss' everywhere is that the park is basically the theme park of a major children's tv-show producer, called studio 100. Kinda like how Walt Disney World is the physical version of all the Disney movies, only Plopsa's in a way smaller scale.

[@Wig4]

Correct and I explainded it with more background detail at a different spot in this comments page ;-)

[@Glyhnzel]

Fifteen years ago I went to Plopsaland with my parents for the first time. It was my first and only time so it's really cool and weird at the same time to see how much this park has grown after all those years. Also, I was nine y/o so I only remember bits and pieces (although my Mum still has a home video).

[@jasper94567]

Good to see that you had a great time at one of our belgian parks. Really liked your pronounciation of the names of all the rides.Some interesting facts for you:*The duelling single rail coaster (de vleermuis) is still operating but has a lot of technical issues.*The dark ride "het bos van plop" will be replaced in 2018 with a new darkride.*Anubis may be the best Gerstlauer you have ridden so far but they have a lot more good coasters to offer that are even better than anubis:1.Schwur des Kärnan @ Hansa Park2.Junker @ Powerpark3.Fluch von Novgorod @ Hansa Park4.Lynet @ Farup Sommerland

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Thank you for the facts!

[@marcelwannieck]

Side note: the original Viktor's Race was actually demolished at the end of 2013. They then built a new coaster with the same layout and name to replace the old one. So, this coaster is not just well maintained, it's actually a relatively new coaster. And Vleermuis (the Batflyer) actually consists of two separate coasters, so that would also be two credits.

[@tawtam1]

Want to let you know I appreciate your blogs. It gives me a since of being there without having the chance to be there......I know dumb sentence but true.

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Thank you for the continued support everyone!

[@belgaming3599]

Anubis the ride won Diamond Themepark Award for best coaster in Belgium for 5 years in a row for a reason. What do you think ? You think it could be one of the better coasters in Europe ?

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

It's brilliant, we loved it

[@belgaming3599]

Awsome ! I myself am heading there tomorrow for a behind the scenes tour at the Heidi Construction site! So excited :p

[@nathanwilson2644]

I can't believe you went to Plopsaland, I went there 2 years ago when on holiday and it was really hot and really busy

[@exodesto4430]

Anubis is a Movie/ In the nethelrands and belgium.

[@bartdebaare9801]

Yeah, there are 4 movies, but the main thing are the series that have been on tv in the past! 😜

[@zitaksal]

The song you were dancing the macarena to (at the bunny rabbit ride) was a massive, massive hit when it came out, it managed to stay in the top 100 selling singles for 64 weeks.

[@zitaksal]

PS: As I do my student job there, I can tell you that Filip has, in fact, been promoted. No joke.

[@ThoosieJP]

WHy did they remove the kids style music? Where staff getting too annoyed with it?

[@bryan13318]

the names of the coasters were in 2 languages written on those bords the upper section was dutch and the bottom section was france

[@prettypretty7493]

Have you visited Bellewaerde near Ieper, Belgium? I HIGHLY recommend it, absolutely stunning park, great atmosphere, great rides and animals too.

[@timdruyts5025]

The batflyer called "The bat" has a lot of technical problems. And Plopsaland sells the coaster.

[@clanBlackhunters]

Yay the first Vlog :3 I visited the park 2 years ago. Anubis is a great ride with a nice launch. Rode it like 30 Times in one day ^^

[@joshkirkham4281]

Great vlog been looking forward to this for ages

[@Tomage09]

Another quality vlog to enjoy! woot woot

[@bazahaza]

Great video can't wait to see the rest. Loving Martin too hope to see him in a lot more vlogs.

[@siebemeuris]

draak does indeed mean dragon, i'm from belgium and i've ridden this coaster a lot as a child

[@siebemeuris]

and de boomstammetjes is the dutch translation, the other is french an it means log flume

[@coolchick7197]

Dover-dunkirk is always a bumpy ride as i did the journey on the ferry last year. Wifi on the ferry was epic aswell, hope you didnt get too seasick! Awesome vlog as usual and im looking forward to the vlogs to follow

[@neilwhite6658]

Watching this vlog for the first time now, watched the Movie Park Germany one a couple a months ago (from the same trip). This has to be one of my favourite Theme Park Worldwide videos, so enjoyable. Around 3/4 years ago I used to love this channel, and as I go through phases on KZbin I stopped watching, only watching videos now and again. This channel is excellent still today having watched the recent videos, but being able to watch vlogs like this from over 5 years ago is so great. Idk if one of the account users will see this message, but I really appreciate the content this account has given us over the years.

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Thank you so much. This was a fab trip!

[@horselover4934]

Omg just came here yesterday best day ever!! Xx❤️❤️❤️😂😂😂✌🏻🥰😍😍😍😍🥰🥰✌🏻

[@dannilaura]

The man working on the bunny ride clearly loves his job!

[@AlertF16]

Also his life

[@brambruwaene2521]

I actually worked there too and it's one of the most annoying attractions to work on and constantly hearing the same music drives you nuts. But i never showed my discourage and kept smiling lol.

[@IIMitchOMaticII]

Been waiting for this all week!

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

We hope it was worth the wait!

[@truemetalsonic]

I love Maya the Bee - she's so adorable.Good to see her represented in a theme park.

[@yoboys4599]

She was actually made by Studio 100 and they are a dutch tv company

[@truemetalsonic]

Roblox Gaming and i need to know that why? clearly i already know who she is - shes really big in Germany.

[@yoboys4599]

+truemetalsonic because there is a plopsaland in Germany and the Netherlands

[@truemetalsonic]

***** everything iv read says shes from germany

[@truemetalsonic]

***** oh okay ~ i was suprised to see Maya on Tiny Pop in the UK... oddly the advert was about 9pm at night on a non-children's channel.

[@Suspendcoaster]

The Macarena song is actually"de kabouterdans" translated the gnome dance. That has offcourse a dance with it. But not the macarena ;) Ps. mayaland was first Arthur was later

[@zoelee4687]

Great vlog as always ! Liking Martin in them, he made me laugh a few times :D

[@silversamm]

I loved how you danced the macarena in the queline for bunny rabbit ride, very fun to watch! it's called Kabouterdans (Gnome dance) and does have own silly dance routine as well, performed by characters you also saw in the Bos of Plop darkride, theyre from a kids tv show. And the signs are bi-langual Dutch/french, but since they are so close to England they might want to add some english too. WOuld love to go back to this park, ve only been there once as a kid but they have added some ineresting rides since thn for sure!

[@saaikanaal]

the lyrics of the song at the bunny ride actually tell you how to do the "leprachaun dance": you have to turn around, pound your feet to the ground, wave your hands in the air and sit like a goose. So maybe that's why people looked weird at you for dancing the macarena instead haha

[@RoyaleBryYT]

SaaiKanaal ur lying the name leprechaun isn’t kabouter it’s gnome actually

[@jacksepticeyeandhorselover2115]

Plopsaland is so good!!!!!!! I want to back there 'my god so brilliant!!!🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌😆😆😁😆😁😆😂😂😆😂😁😁😍😍😍😍😎😎😗😙😙😙😄😄😄😃😃.

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

It sure is, visited twice now and enjoyed it on both occasions

[@williamgeorge1120]

30:10 I am watching this 5 years later and I would happily pay £20 for a bag if it meant I could actually visit a park! If you happen to see this shawn, these old vlogs are keeping me sane in lockdown. If just watched the 2015 California trip and now I'm onto this one!

[@williamgeorge1120]

I remember watching them when they first came out, what memories!

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Thanks for watching!

[@shadowcat2987]

Omg I just went to France for my year six trip and we went to plopsaland... the log ride and the big blue one is my favourite ride 😯😯😯😯

[@andyjarvis1489]

Love your Vlog's guys, always cheers me up watching

[@michielvanhaeren1334]

I have so much nostalgia for this park 😄

[@stuartallen6424]

Another fantastic vlog and 100% coming to ride Anubis and the woody bring on the next vlog and thank you for all the cracking work you do for us park enthusiasts

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Thank you for the continued support

[@ThemeParkGamers]

This was worth the waiting, great vlog Shawn :)

[@newchannel6311]

Super super nice to see a park in me country ! If you have time visit Bellewaerde in Ieper Belgium !

[@Coaster_Crazy]

Only just started watching the vlog and the park looks great !!! Nice theming 👍🏻👍🏻

[@ThemeParkNetYT]

Plopsa has many tv shows for children with its own characters. And most rides in plopsaland are bades on those characters. So is the music 😉

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

We had a great time!

[@coasterport]

You guys need to try a Star Flyer here in the US. If you think 150 ft tall is scary, try the two 400 ft tall Star Flyers known as the Texas SkyScreamer found at Six Flags Over Texas or the New England SkyScreamer at Six Flags New England.

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Would love to at some point!

[@isabelleplissart6639]

yes I was hoping you’ll ever go to plopsaland! I live in Belgium and I’ve been there many times before. I have to say when I was little it was a lot different with other characters (from tv shows from studio 100) but time changes. I hoop it you had fun their!! Greeting from Belgium.

[@yoboys4599]

That's what I keep on telling everybody

[@thatguy4550]

When Shawn was doing the Macarena a woman looked at him then picked up her child and walked off 😂😂

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Oops!

[@regandumbrell8639]

cooperkid232 wat minute ?

[@wendyharvey9475]

another great vlog well done shawn

[@bignath2009]

The bunny rabbit ride 😂😂😂

[@christiejenkins5134]

The wait is finally over 😁😁

[@Coasterfan312]

20:44 - That guy does not look like he enjoys his job :P

[@asturge212]

Living the dream as ever.

[@jochemmecking3534]

the song at the bunny ride is also a dance. It means: turn once around, pitch with your feet on the ground. sweep your arms in the air. now take a seat with a sigh. walk around like a duck. that's the way the gnome dance goes.

[@mrthemeparkfans]

Nice video from Plopsaland. :)

[@plskenpls]

Shawn, in the bunny rabbit ride everyone is looking since it's a song like the Macarena with a dance. Only the lyrics are literally the moves. The go: turn around once, step your feet on the floor, swing your hands in the air, sit down with a sigh, now step around like a goose. That's why people probably looked at you kinda odd :p

[@mmegidolaonn]

I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS SO MUCH!

[@littlemisshamsters5363]

Did anyone notice that Victor's race is the exact track layout for Rattlesnake at pleasure wood hills from the other vlog?? Another great vlog x

[@pietervandercammen9006]

Theme Park Worldwide, the next time you'll visit Plopsaland, you have to look up 'Studio100' on the internet. Then you'll understand the theming and the music more, because it's all based on tv shows produced by Studio100. But again a great vlog! :-D

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

I will do indeed!

[@janettecooper3631]

You do make me laugh...you naughty boys making the girls scream, so funny 😆

[@ThemeParkSquib]

Can't wait to ride Anubis!

[@domis8325]

If you like Anubis then you also gonna love Karacho at Tripsdrill, Germany!

[@PFFPtv]

Thanks for taking the time out of your trip to edit and put these videos together Shaun for people like me who don't get the chance to visit these parks around Europe its really interesting to see what they are like and you do a great job of relaying the charter and general atmosphere of each park you visit. Its a shame you missed out on those two credits yet I'm sure you got to ride loads of other awesome coasters on the trip. Keep up the great work! Me and many others really do appreciate it.

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Thank you for the kind comment and feedback!

[@stevenverleye6062]

Plopsaland used to be Melipark ... Melipark, bought by a honey-farmer was a park themed around flowers, bees and the mother-icon Maya the Bee. It opened in 1935. Outside was a honey-store, believed to sell the best honey in all of Belgium, made by bees in and around the park. In 1999 it turned to Plopsaland. Plopsa is a new installment famous from the Flemish tv-show Gnome Plop in his milk hostel. Glad to see they keep some of the bee-history :)

[@demanneke8760]

Great video guys

[@MrElitesense]

Thanks for another vlog. Your first impressions are the absolute best. Suggestions for the future: When you travel abroad (states or wherever) you should do more footage from "around" the park area, shopping, resorts, airports, travel, etc -- Would be good for you guys to get an extra "bonus footage" video for more views and your viewers get a better insight into your trip and the areas around the park (hotels, etc) --- anyways awesome vids please keep them coming.

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

We tried to do this alot more in these vlogs, thanks for the tips!

[@trevorrandom]

This place is nuts definitely going to check it out soon and so easy to get too from the UK.

[@Rumirumi_]

Just a smal note on the zierer: They demolished the old track a few yaers ago and placed an identical version on the same spot.

[@oljaskudabayev6288]

great vlog again shaun!

[@bradleygore6511]

Another great vlog!

[@matteougolini4068]

At 51:25 the name of the ride is "Mega Mindy Jetski"

[@spenzer9875]

I'm really liking Mart, hope hes in more videos from now on.

[@tobiasschwab9341]

Been to Plopsaland yesterday. It is a nice Park. What they need is a rapid and a second Darkride. Anubis is brilliant. But you have to try Kärnan at Hansa Park . It is by far the best Gerstlauer.

[@Wig4]

The second darkride is in the planning !

[@dragonslayer7285]

I really enjoy your vlogs

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Thank you!

[@regandumbrell8639]

Theme Park Worldwide u reply ?

[@dealwiththeseal9166]

Great vlog Shawn! Anubis the Ride looks like an awesome Gerstlauer coaster!

[@themothmanreturns]

Haha that boat ride was strange! There was magic mushroom theming everywhere! Good ride though.

[@amusementtimes6489]

I really loved this vlog

[@goldentapes]

The Names on the signs are in dutch and french, so it's just "De Bomstammetjes" which translates to "the logs" :D Martin seems like a fun guy! Looking forward too seeing him in more vlogs from your trip. Also nice to see you at a park that I've actually been to before! As always, thanks for doing these great vlogs!

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Thank you for the feedback!

[@yoboys4599]

+Theme Park Worldwide What boat did u take

[@jacksepticeyeandhorselover2115]

Cause I am part Belgium and my whole family is too!😍😍

[@willowvanwesemael9744]

at 36.50 Martin was holding that gnome plushie and he's actually called "Plop" :D

[@belgaming3599]

Did you use the Gopro Harnas to film on Anubis and the other rides ?

[@XTrolllxGamesX]

Update : plopsaland just got their permits from the city "De Panne" they can open heide the ride in 6 months but they need to place sound barriers on the ride wich already has been done and it doesnt look to bad its kind've like balder in Liseberg now. So it will open this summer season

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

We look forward to seeing the end result!

[@XTrolllxGamesX]

Theme Park Worldwide btw the "paths" they were soing under the coaster were actually the barriers xD

[@mryeast4373]

anubis is based on a tv programme called house of anubis

[@larissakuppusamy6397]

That's what I was thinking as soon as I saw the eye symbol!!

[@benw3083]

I love that show!!

[@mryeast4373]

+Larissa haha yeah

[@mryeast4373]

+Ben W its alright😂

[@benw3083]

+MickMashMore Nann that was my shit😂😂

[@naomiroijen6285]

I used to go here when I was younger.

[@jameshiltonf]

Great vlog! The Anubis ride is based off a British TV show on Nickelodeon called House of Anubis

[@Georgie-M]

One of Plopsa's other parks, Holiday Park has another Anubis-themed ride with their drop tower. Instead of being well-themed, however, it just loops the theme tune in a dark room in the queue line. Of all the ride themes, it's probably the least fitting I've seen.

[@isabelleplissart6639]

Actually the British show house of anubis is a remake of the original Dutch show het huis Anubis. So the ride is named after the original dutch show.

[@letsroamaround2189]

based of the OG dutch/belgian tv show Het huis anubis mate

[@yoboys4599]

No House of Anubis was originally dutch

[@jameshiltonf]

Yeah ive just found that out XD

[@TheOneAndOnlyHola]

@Shawn, the bat-coaster (De Vleermuis) is permanently closed and is for sale.

[@belgaming3599]

And the Batride is operational but it closes during rainy days. Plus the sign said Technical Inspection

[@busstopgaming]

and you come of the motorway 1st exit when you get into Belgium

[@martynleighton8950]

Shawn, do you pay full price for these theme parks or do you get discount? I'd love to visit all these parks but just don't have the money

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

We pay full price

[@samd7432]

Hey Shawn, about the batflyer or vleermuis like we call it in Belgium, it is not sbno, but as if it is a very old and unique attraction, there are a lot of technical problems, most of the time its closed. and no new models will be built. It was designed by Caripro, but that firm is now taken over by Vekoma. I don't know what the problem is but it just seems to be more closed then open. but you'll have the best chance to ride it early in the morning. I must the warn you, the end is very rough :)

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Thank you for letting us know

[@samd7432]

+Theme Park Worldwide you're welcome Shawn! Love your videos, keep up the good work :)

[@novaworld1297]

great blog many thanxs

[@yoboys4599]

33:28 it is a boat ride I have been there before

[@harrh4528]

do you not count supersplash as a coaster credit? I would

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Officially it's not

[@tgijoe5370]

That is what I think! According to RCDB it is not a credit, but rides like Atlantica are counted as credits.

[@Anonymous-hj5bq]

Hi shawn, I saw you yesterday (Thursday) at around 2:15 in the queue for Winjas at phantasialand (at the top of the stairs). I first saw your video footage being displayed on the wall and then I thought hey that's Shawn, I looked up and there you were all laughing at yourself patting your cheek. It was so funny I hope I'm in the vlog!

[@ThemeParkWorldwide]

Great to see you!

[@horselover4934]

I’m going here again in June with my mum, brother and granny (aka my mums mum) ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️😍🥰🥰🥰😘🥰🥰😂😂😂😍😍😍😍

[@melocake1000]

Anubis The ride is based on a serie :Het huis Anubis which was on tv when I was younger They build the actual house as a decor for the ride :)

[@jasperlambrecht1906]

the higher seats on viktor is for the back pain. without them its hurt your back a little bit.
