Steel Vengeance: Ride with Andy Ouriel

The Register's Andy Ouriel screams through Cedar Point's newest coaster Steel Vengeance during the media preview day on Wednesday, April 25, 2018.

[@chrisbender8714]

The rides designer... is right.... BEHIND YOU!!! Your reaction thoughout the duration is friggen hilarious!

[@ladonna1902]

The designer kept his hands up almost the whole time.

[@michealsstepdad7688]

I was legit about to make this comment but no need as this nails it

[@CupheadCL]

@@ladonna1902 i went to cp last september and i can say that is very difficult to keep the hands up hahaha steel vengeance has a lot of airtime... well, it was my first time in a roller coaster, i was a little scared ahahha

[@williamwassmann9349]

Oh my god! That IS HIM! :O

[@modz_gg-gamer581]

Alan Shilcke, designer for RMC

[@derekwhite9932]

Alan, hearing all that screaming has to be like, " I did my job."

[@dgpkira9440]

Probably Alan's favorite time riding it lol

[@novai6554]

Isn't that crazy, just imagine being Alan Schilke spending so long designing such a crazy ride on computer and paper and then riding it in its full glory...

[@TS_Mind_Swept]

That's part of the reason I want to be a coaster designer. Well, a guy can dream

[@natepoch2416]

@@natepoch2416 I've always bin proficient at relevant math, rearranging letters has never been my strong suit though..

[@alaeriia01]

I love how about 50% of the comments are about Alan Schilke being right behind him.

[@ppipowerclass]

More than 50%.

[@dindog22]

Alan Schilke doesn't get air time. he gets hair time

[@cashprinter5000]

I like how all you guys know him

[@ImVee10]

Thanks to your comment, 51%.

[@CrazyDash9]

I love how Alan schilke is right behind them. He’s probably laughing to himself evilly that he scared this guy with his awesome creation lol. Schilke is the true god of coasters lol

[@Trainmaster909]

Him and Werner Stengel. His apprentice Joe Draves isn’t bad either

[@iliketrains3546]

Don’t forget John wardley

[@TS_Mind_Swept]

I love how Alan Schilke was riding behind you (what an honor) and then you were the screaming goat the whole ride XD AAAAAAAAAAWO!!! XD

[@Paolo8772]

You must've seen Coasterfanatic's screaming goat during all the airtime moments video from August 2017.

[@TS_Mind_Swept]

I do vaguely remember a screaming goat video on this ride now that you mention it, but I wasn’t referencing it with my comment, just the screaming goat thing in general

[@Paolo8772]

It's all good.

[@derekwhite9932]

I had to come to the comments before watching once I saw Alan!

[@TS_Mind_Swept]

Derek White - ALAAAAN! AL!

[@willwill1289]

He screams like that guy from the original home alone when he got caught in all those traps 😂😂😂

[@tru3seer772]

1:09 He dead-ass sounded like homer simpson xD

[@luciano6967]

lmfao right

[@manifestgtr]

Dead....ass?

[@hiphopboy29]

🤣

[@amyjo18]

[@ImVee10]

Night terrors. “COBRAS!”

[@triple7marc]

Riding behind is Alan Schilke (the ride's designer) and Jake Kilcup (RMC's chief operating officer). Awesome.

[@visionist7]

Meanwhile Alan Schilke yawning at 00:57! lol it's all in a day's work to him

You know it’s gonna go well when the first little bump results in an “AHHHHH! 😫”

[@moaoz]

lmao i would have done the same thing

[@erikawilliams9558]

You get used to it

[@mirandaewell87]

The guy behind you is Alan Schilke. Funny screaming, though!

[@KeyWestCorona]

Miranda Ewell He only designed the ride. Why would anyone know who he is?

[@TS_Mind_Swept]

Lee Howerin - I know who he is, he's only the best guy ever!

[@TS_Mind_Swept]

Miranda Ewell - (number)ScreamingGoat

[@imperator708]

thank god for these comments, id seen him on a few videos and was wondering why he was there all the time. the guy really doesn't like holding on LOL

[@TS_Mind_Swept]

1mperat0r - that’s cause "the guy" (Alan) knows how to do it right

[@omgsolikevalleygirl]

wow Alex Schilke just one row behind... that's like flying to space with Einstein haha

[@leandrodossantos8546]

Alan*

[@junerfifi9713]

More like staring at a lightbulb with Einstein

[@omgsolikevalleygirl]

I could edit my post to say Alan, but 84 people already liked it the way it is :D

Who else loves that steel vengeance along with a lot of other RMC’s basically force you to have your hands up because they don’t have a lot of things to hold onto😂😂

[@theforeverpuddle8754]

Yeah they're evil. I love it.

[@skippythealien9627]

lmfaooooo i rode Goliath at Six Flags Great Am a few weekends ago, which is an RMC. I was gripping on to the side handle for dear life i'lll probably be gripping on to the lap bar for dear life if i ever ride this coaster lmfao

[@sammi3sw33t]

lol i tried grabbing the side of the coaster....didnt work lmfaoooo

[@olleksheppert1554]

Seeing Alan fight with his own creation over his beenie is as funny as poetic :D

🤣😂🤣😂

[@oldmanfunky4909]

Alan Schilke!!! Sweeeet! How cool would it be to ride with the man himself!

[@altarion6882]

Who else thinks that the most fun part of the video is watching Alan Schilke trying to handle his hat?

[@JayAlfordElementJMusic]

Literally me when I rode my first RMC (Twisted Timbers). I screamed, I hollered, I shouted, then I couldn't breathe. Yep, in that order.

[@erika8214]

"There's more!" - Andy Poor Andy.

[@jtcowboy5518]

LMAO!!! His screams started out strong and manly and progressively getting higher and weaker. I'm about to spit out my coffee! Hahaha!!!

[@MARKOUTTV]

1:17 Alan's like "I didn't design the lift hill to be this fucking loud"

[@rossh688]

I laughed so hard watching this that I cried... Too funny!

[@mason0448]

And then there's Alan yawning as the train leaves the station

[@georgeedwinjonesii8527]

That high pitch scream tho 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@MrPopsfreshnmyer]

Well, now we know what a man would sound like giving birth. Great video!

[@yeetyeet3279]

I thought he sounded like a screaming goat lol

[@theripoffchicago]

Watched this so many times and just noticed Alan Schilke is behind you:::::: I was too busy enjoying your fear! LOL.... Mr. Schilke is a genius....

[@celestiastar1989]

Oh lord this poor man is just like me. Every single drop and movement I have to scream...idk if my stomach is sensitive or what but if I don't scream my soul feels like it leaves my body 🤣💖

[@nolanjohnson2179]

I have to say, this is the best POV ive ever seen, because I felt every part of that ride

[@wbuckles]

The guy in the green would be my friend, and I would be the main guy in the blue. Definitely

And I'm the guy behind them. You know, Alan Schilke, the designer.

this and maverick are my two favorite all time rides. wo of the best coasters anywhere on the planet imo, and they are in the same park, right next to each other. insane.

[@Thejeronhowie]

the way i screeaaaaaaamed at his reactions...i literally have tears in my eyes lmao

[@georgeoliver4704]

Ouch. I feel his pain. I've only been on one RMC and that was my reaction, as well as "What no hand grips?" Yikes. Never again, but I envy those who can enjoy such coasters.

[@apothecurio]

Yeah. Honestly. You don’t want to fight RMC’s. Just accept the ejector airtime. it feels great on your back. Straightens you right up.

I was watching this clip mesmerised by the guy's hair in the seat behind. Thought he must be a genius or mad to have hair like that. Then saw all the comments. Turns out he IS a mad genius. Hair checks out.

[@RedAce0]

I have to say that I can relate. I'm not a big fan of coasters and this was my first proper "thrill ride". I did the exact same thing you did, but I cursed the entire time. And believe it or not...I'd do it again, at least if I HAVE to. Just have to get myself in the right mindset.

[@amypalooza6934]
