Abandoned Six Flags: One Last Visit Before It's Destroyed (New Orleans) 

If CCI was still around they could’ve used the “our coaster structurally survived one of the worst hurricanes” as a selling point. I mean a hurricane and 20 years of absolutely no maintenance. Truly impressive engineering.

I just took the family this past weekend. It wasn't crowded which was great but no rides were open. 0 out of 5 stars. Will not return.

For well over 10 years, this property intrigued me. Wonderful aerial footage of the place as a final archive before it’s fully gone. Crazy to think Hurricane Katrina was so long ago at this point

Some fabulous footage here as a final record. These sorts of flights really should be permitted, one day someone will be curious, they'll find this video and be very grateful to you.

I live near New Orleans, I plan on going soon to just drive by. It’s sad that the city let it sit for so long after almost 20 years of issues. The company that has leased out the land is Bayou Phoenix. They are supposed to build movie studios, recreational sport fields, hotels, family entertainment center, indoor/outdoor waterpark, shops and dining. It will probably be a while before it’s completed though

So the rumors are true then about the demolition. About time. Really enjoyed the footage. This old dump fascinates me. Hope someone films the destruction. Saying hi from Toronto Canada 🇨🇦. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Very cool drone coverage and piloting. So glad that you were able to capture the last of this amusement back before it's gone forever.

My mom is from New Orleans and i have extended family that survived Katrina When my younger cousin and her family came to stay with us in North Alabama after they evacuated at the last minute because it was literally the day before that the news broke that Katrina was heading straight for New Orleans, it hit her like a freight train, my mom and aunt were glued to the TV and i had to console my 6 year old cousin who was endlessly sobbing at her home possibly being destroyed, the safety of her friends and seeing the park that she loved to go to be completely submerged in water along with the then New Orleans Hornets arena, her friends all survived as they had evacuated and their home was still standing despite the roof being blown off but because of the exposure to the elements, the mold had gotten so bad that it still had to be torn down and rebuilt My uncle stayed behind to assist in search and rescue and i don't know how, but he was able to get a piece of film from the Spongebob Ride from Six Flags New Orleans and i still have it to this very day framed on my wall 2-3 years before we had talks of my mom going back down to visit and taking me to Six Flags NOLA but unfortunately that never happened

It’s so sad what happened to this place, I’ve always wanted to go and see this place in person but now I’ll never get the chance. There’s no chance of another theme park being developed in that space again because it would be way too expensive to redevelop that land. It’s crazy how quickly a natural disaster can take out a place like that. It was closed for the weekend never to be opened again. Tragic

Great aerial shots with your drone! It's crazy to see all the trees and fauna growth since Katrina hit in 2005.

I love this recent video! It was great. Got a little sad while watching and thinking about the who, what, when, why, where and how of this once awesome theme park and it's surrounding area that deserved SO MUCH BETTER. Thanks for sharing!

I love that the footprint of the Jurassic World set is still visible in the parking lot.

Six flags New Orleans is quite literally “baby’s first urban exploring videos”.

Really cool footage it's pretty wild to see an amusement park left to rot for years.

Wow. You flew right through a building! Such bravery! One mistake and that’s it, you can’t retrieve it.

What an amazing video!! I’ve seen a number of videos of people actually in the park filming but never one from up above. I didn’t know drones could travel that far but I don’t know much about them. The roller coaster footage was amazing as was flying it in one window and out the other. Exceptional work 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Closed for storm

This was awesome, you did a great job!

The way nature has reclaimed this park more and more , year after year, is fascinating yet sad. A amusement park is meant to bring smiles to peoples faces and instead it sits silent and abandoned all while rotting away. A new forest has basically grown around the rides with other parts of the park under water. It is returning to the swamp.

Ya know a year ago I was down there for work and as I think I do remember seeing roller coasters off that road, without signage I thought it was just some local park and didn’t know it was a six flags.

While relocating from southern California to New Hampshire in 05 I took my kids to that park weeks before the hurricane struck there. It was an Ok park seeing how it had a roller coaster past operation wise. Sad, it could not come back. Farewell.

I love seeing the old jurassic world set outlines still there in the parking lot

So sad! I loved that place. I had a season pass every year!

Really enjoyed your video! I was at a drs appointment when the hurricane hit New Orleans. So sad that a hurricane hit there. Subscribed to your channel.

Thanks for the last look. This brings back memories..

The fretless bass on this song is sick!

Surprised it took so long for them to get around to demolishing it, given how long it's been abandoned.

I always wondered if they could save and relocate that big coaster. But it was probably badly salt water damaged anyway, and now its been almost 20 years.

Awesome video man!! I was down in Lake Charles working for a company in 2020 after Hurricane Laura and REALLY wanted to stop by there and fly it after we were done. Never got a chance, though.

Great vid! I had to slow it down to .5x, but very cool. That still shot at the very end is spectacular!

nice video, I got to visit this park 2 months before it closed for good and the year before. It was a nice little park. I have a video on my channel if any of you guys wanna see how it was when it was open. FPV and roller coasters are my fave hobbies!

Nice flying

I can't help but think of Fallout..

I read some articles on the future of the site. It's set for demolition in October. Plans for the site include a water park, a hotel and a sports complex. I'm surprised that it took this long since the site was sold to come up with a new use for it. It makes me curious of what the site will look like once construction is finished.

Oh wow they filmed alot of movies, shows and commercials there. Sad to see it go

I had season passes for Jazzland and Six Flags. It wasn't the best park, but it was fun for what it is. Thanks for this video

I bet Six flags had a hell of a year financially when they wrote that off on their taxes as a loss

Mega Zeph looks like a solid roller coaster! I wish I could have ridden that!

Awesome work.

Interesting. Thanks for sharing.

Almost 20 years and is just now being demolished?!

Sell this to the news crew ;)

When will this be started to be torn down??!?? I'm trying to go this weekend!!

Blame Premier Parks INC. And Kieran Burke...

Too bad I never got to visit it... 😥 It was a really fun place, too.

Why’d it take them so long to knock the place?

Wonder if any more damage incurred from Francine this past week?

Before and after photos

always wanted to FPV a roller coaster

Looks Like Thinks are Going be. Done .

has it been confirmed too be demolished?

Just rebuild the damn park, It sat empty for a long time now, no need to waste such a park

About to play Airsoft in it tomorrow (9/21)
