Take the quiz! www.sporcle.co... The quiz has been corrected with some of the errors I found during this recording. Music in this video, as found in the RU-vid Audio Library: Calvin Harris
Both X2 and Xcelerator SHOULD have been on there. Wild Thing is debatable, as it's 200 feet tall but only a 196 foot drop, but either way X2 and Xcelerator are both hypers.
I actually made this quiz a few months ago! If you go onto the link in the description and go to my account in sporcle you can find that quiz if you would like
I actually got 86%, which is pretty good :) I missed Wild Thing at Valleyfair, X2 at Six Flags Magic Mountain, Big Apple Coaster at the New York New York, Superman El Ultimo Escape at Six Flags Mexico, and Cannibal at Lagoon. I'm surprised that Xcelerator at Knott's Berry Farm is not here..... so maybe another coaster that needs to be added on there. I'm surprised Magnum didn't come to your mind the first time when thinking of coasters over 200 feet :D I started with that one immediately.
@@Flopettes he did a quiz that I made over the wooden coasters in North America. Check out that video on his channel and click the link below to take the quiz
I got 36/43. The only one that I completely forgot was Cannibal. The other six of them I could think of but not remember their names exactly. I've been on Wild Thing at Valleyfair but couldn't remember the name. The two Supermans at SFMM and SF Mexico I knew of but couldn't remember their exact names. I couldn't remember what Manhattan Express had been remaned too which I don't feel too bad about since the 'park" it's at doesn't seem to remember either based on the signage for it I saw in a video of Coaster Studios. I also remembered Canada's Wonderland adding a dive coaster but couldn't remember the name. Cannibal which I know of totally escaped me though. Looking through the list of coasters in red I missed, I only count six that I didn't name so I don't know why it lists 36/43 instead of 37/43 or 36/42 if the count is wrong either way. Edit- I did name Xcelerator even though it's not on the list and I'm sure there are a few others missing.
I only got 30% on this one lol. However I will say that I live in Florida which is home to only 2 coasters at 200 feet, so I think your videos have helped me brush up on my coaster knowledge.
I got 33/43, or 73% I don't feel too bad for missing anything I did, though I should've remembered Big Apple Coaster and Steel Force. But I got a lot of them and did much better than the Six Flags one, despite only having ridden one of the coasters on the list (Mako)
I got 37/43 for 86%. I forgot X2, Valravn and Desperado. Apparently forgetting the apostrophe on Appolo's Chariot and a hyphen on one of the Superman rides got me. I can't remember the others. I actually surprised myself though.
Future Quiz Suggestions: Every RMC Every coaster in Florida Every park in California Every ride at Disney World Every B&M Invert and Vekoma SLC in the US (just has to hang below the track)
34/43 - very good for someone who has only visited 4 North American parks (Canada's Wonderland, Universal Florida, Seaworld Orlando and Busch Gardens Tampa.)
A few quizzes to consider (all in North America): -all Arrow coasters still operating -all launch coasters -coasters with more than 6 inversions -all inverted coasters -coasters that go backwards at some point in the ride
Here's some other ones :) Top 50 wood coasters from Amusement Today 2018: www.sporcle.com/games/The_Reaganator/top-50-wood-coasters?t=amusementpark All coasters built at current Cedar Fair parks (operating and defunct): www.sporcle.com/games/lbfarley480/name-all-coasters-built-at-current-cedar-fair-parks?t=amusementpark
I got Griffon with less than a second to spare, to finish with 98%... because there is one blank answer at the end as an error or something. Maybe that's where Xcelerator is supposed to go
I liked this quiz and off the top of my head, the only coasters that have a height of at least 200 ft that are still not on here are xcelerator and wild eagle. Honestly I'm not surprised that I missed Superman Escape From Krypton since I was only thinking about the top tier rides at each park, and I forgot about Kennywood until the very end so I missed steel curtain and then I missed Phantom's Revenge because I had only thought of it with 2 seconds remaining and I didn't type it quickly enough. Overall pretty good test, if there's an idea I had it would maybe be to name all parks with at least x amount of coasters in North America (and make x rather small so you can't just think of all the parks immediately). I was thinking at least 5 but let me know if you think this would make for a good quiz.
I missed 5. Cannibal Desperado Big apple Phantom and Steel Curtain🤦♂️ not bad though way higher than the average score. I’d say 75% or 80% is probably enthusiast level and I got an 86%
I got 38/43 I didn't think about big apple and desperado until the last 5 seconds. I know my hypers well. I missed Mr. Freeze clones, Steel Force, Cannibal, and Superman el Ultimo Escape. Not too shabby
That was fun! When I clicked on the link, though, my quiz had 43, of which I got 27 (63%) The quiz said "Of all the scores you could possibly have achieved, that was certainly one of them.". Yukon Striker WAS on my quiz, which I SHOULD have got, because I remembered all the OTHER dive coasters, and shame on me, because there's not that many (I tried Emperor, as well). I also tried Iron Gwazi AND Son of Beast (not on there) I DID think of X2, but I was too busy with naming others and forgot it. I was SO CLOSE to getting Steel Force. I saw it in my mind... the logo, the red track... at Dorney Park, and I knew it was Steel... something. All in all, I missed Big Apple Coaster, Desparado, Mako, Mamba, BOTH Mr. Freeze, Raging Bull, Steel Force, Superman el ultimo escape, Superman Escape from Krypton, Titan, Wicked Twister (should have got that one), Wild Thing, X2, and Yukon Striker. Not bad, though, considering I've only ever been to King's Dominion and Busch Gardens Williamsburg. The rest I've only read about and seen videos about. Your channel is one of my favorites and an amazingly entertaining and valuable resource. That was a blast and I hope there are more! Thanks!
I couldn't even get the hyper AT MY HOME PARK (37/43 final score) (Missed STEEL CURTAIN, Desperado, Big Apple Coaster, Wicked Twister, X2, and Apollo's Chariot)
I played the quiz at the link. X2 was actually in the quiz I played. Wild Thing and Yukon Striker were also in the quiz, so it seems it has been changed. Eejanaika was not. I spent a lot of quiz time trying to remember the spelling of Eejanaika. I think the quiz designer was only thinking of North America. On behalf of my home park, I must opine that Xcelerator has a 205 top hat.
They missed Xcelerator! But I actually forgot Skyrush and Yukon Striker existed lol. Also I couldn't get Six Flags America's Superman to populate for the life of me.
I missed a couple of the dive coasters plus I forgot that X2 was over 200 feet and I forgot Titan. Also when I took it Wild Thing was in there and Xcelerator was missing
I just took the quiz and I got 37 out of 43 correct. I missed Raging Bull, Steel Curtain, Steel Force, Superman (SFMM), and Wicked Twister. Btw I took the quiz before I watched this.
I completely forgot about Steel Curtain when I took the quiz, and it wasn't the top of your list either. Maybe evidence that enthusiasts really don't care about the record-breaking coasters anymore??
Isn't Xcelerator like 205 ft tall? Also X2 is a little under 200 ft tall but the first drop is 215 ft tall so that should be in there if Apollo's Chariot is. I think it should be based off of drop height!
Got 36/42 on this one... I completely forgot about SheiKra and Griffon, and the Vegas coasters like Big Apple Coaster and Desperado. I also knew I was missing something with "Superman" in the name, but couldn't figure it out... but I think I deserve a pass considering it was in another language ;-)
