After taking my kids to Disney and seeing that A) they love roller coasters, and B) Disney is way too expensive-- I decided to take matters into my own hands and build them their very own Backyard Roller Coaster!
Thank you to my wonderful wife Heidi for being so supportive of my crazy project and for my neighbors for not telling our HOA to make me take it down. 😂 So far most of the neighborhood kids have been on it and loved it!
For those that want to build their own backyard roller coaster, please comment below and I will put together another video that shows exactly how we did it step by step!

About Dude Dad:
Hi! I'm Taylor Calmus, a Colorado-based actor/comedian. I started Dude Dad© two weeks before my son Theo was born as a way to stay creative while learning to be a father. My wife Heidi and I now have 3 kids and over 300+ videos. My purpose for the channel is to entertain, enlighten and inspire.
In addition to Dude Dad©, I have been in numerous TV shows, commercials, and have regular appearances on Jimmy Kimmel Live. I will also be hosting my own TV show called "Super Dad" on the new Magnolia Network / Discovery+. Heidi and the kids will also be a part of the show. I am originally from the rural community of Howard, South Dakota.

The thing I really like about this channel is that it brings father-child relationships back to what they used to be when we were kids growing up. This is the polar opposite of sitting around and playing on your phone all day. Bravo.

You need to add the wings on the back. Then you nailed the book. Truly building the most remarkable memories one build at a time. Not just memories but teaching never to give up, power of friendships and how it takes friends to help build things and the power of laughter. You are inspiring. Both you and Heidi. Never underestimate yourself. You were destined to create this channel and keep us entertained for a reason. Heidi was right and she will always be. Happy wife happy life. Cheers. Congratulations on the roller coaster 🎢 and the book.

@spirals 73 Gen X here. Well... we didn't have a roller coaster, but we weren't locked out of the house either. What our generation had was unsupervised play; we weren't put out of the house but we could do whatever... just be home before dark or for dinner, and don't break any laws. That's the sum total of the limits our parents placed on our free time. It's sad that your dad wasn't around, but at least you got to experience the same kind of freedom. Kids these days have none of that, they have no idea... We had a good dad, even if he was often away from home for long periods of time (being a Navy man). He made us toys, beds, desks (at the time my parents couldn't afford store bought), a soapbox racer, and we'd help him build it all. And of course we got to use his power tools as well.

@jlejustin1 11 месяцев назад

you know what is sad too though... people that do not have money for a house to have a backyard to build something like this :/ I am one of these people sadly but man would I love to build this!

@jmozz1 11 месяцев назад

Just so cool that you share your creations with the whole neighborhood. All of those kids looked like they were having so much fun. Thank for sharing with us as well.

@DudeDad 11 месяцев назад

It’s my way of teaching our kids to share. Obviously what I do allows them to have and experience some pretty cool things. I want them to always be thinking about how they can share what they’ve been blessed with.

You never cease to amaze me. You are the father every child deserves. When some fathers don't grow up, it's a bad thing, when other fathers don't grow up, you have a roller coaster in your back yard.

Taylor, I’m from Sioux Falls, and one of my childhood theater camp summers, I remember you as one of the counselors. After meeting you, it’s amazing things like this roller coaster that make an impact on everyone you meet! And - speaking 10+ years later - I can say you make an amazing impact wherever you go! Keep being awesome 🎉🎉

@stealth450r 11 месяцев назад

I had pre-ordered the book and immediately read it to my kids yesterday when it came. I was wondering after reading it if you were actually going to do this roller coaster to go with all the other awesome stuff you do. Just like the dad in Lowe's man, you are an inspiration for us all to be better, love your content man.

@rommelbillman2872 10 месяцев назад

I’m 67 and still a huge fan of roller coasters. You and your friends did far more than just build a roller coaster in your backyard. You created.everlasting memories not only with your own children but an entire neighborhood as well. It just warmed my heart to see all those happy faces outside. When was the last time you saw a group of kids together playing outside with the sounds of happy voices filling the air. Now days kids are inside 24/7 glued to their iPods, iPhones, computers and video games most of which are solitary tasks. Kids become isolated, withdrawn and fail to developed the social skills needed to navigate successfully through life. So kudos to you and your friends for creating a small piece of paradise in your backyard.
