Guess I can’t get pinned then. Skyrush backseat is actually my #3 at Hershey now. It used to be my #5 at Hershey but it passed Fahrenheit and Great Bear.
This would’ve been even harder if they had included the defunct parks of AstroWorld, New Orleans, and Worlds of Adventure. They probably would’ve added close to 30 more
The second mine train at Six Flags St. Louis went to Dollywood and was known as Thunder Express, which was replaced by Tennessee Tornado, and is currently at Magic Springs Theme and Water Park in Arkansas as Big Bad John.
Idea: raptor (green invert) vs raptor (jersey devil) vs raptor (sfmm wonder woman) vs raptor (sfft wonder woman) vs raptor (railblazer) vs raptor (stunt pilot) vs raptor (velocicoaster) vs raptor (Italian wing). The only thing is that this would really just end up being "ranking every rmc raptor with a b&m invert for scale" so idk how good an actual video it would make.
13:17 I actually don’t blame you for not knowing about Whirlwind Racer because very little is known about it. In fact, no pictures of it exists anywhere from what Peter from Theme Park Crazy said in his SFNE defunct coasters video. The only thing that is known about it is that it was a wooden coaster designed by Harry G. Traver that operated from 1928-1933. The name also suggests it could have possibly been a racing coaster like the ancient Racer from Cedar Point.
Some coasters on this quiz are renovations of other coasters. I'm surprised SFGA and CGA Turn of the Century were not on the list. Nice video, love watching these quiz videos and all of your content. =)
That sucks, I wasnt really travelling back then (was just out of HS when Astroworld closed and SFNO closed) but it would have still been great to see the park
Out of all coasters my brain could've remembered when taking this quiz, really? Freaking Greyhound. Needless to say, my score wasn't so hot, but I knew I was goner when I remembered that kiddie coaster at St. Louis with it's six paragraph long name.
I'm laughing! New England around hundreds of years. LOL! I would have been hard pressed on that park to get them all right. My home park AstroWorld saw a lot of re-located coasters + some that just went away like the Chance Toboggan.
I couldn't even 100% my home park because I couldn't remember what the mine train that closed before I was born and the shuttle loop I never rode were called.
@@AirtimeThrills I assume it was. I don't remember them branding it as the "new" river king mine train, but maybe they did. I just remember riding it in the late 80s-90s before I moved away.
My first coaster still exists (Hersheypark's little Mine Train, Trailblazer) but my second, third, fourth, sixth and eighth are all gone (#8 torn down just this year).
My first coaster does still exist (Big Thunder Mountain Railroad at Disneyland) but my first coaster love (Wacky Soap Box Racers at Knotts Berry Farm) is gone. It was first replaced by Windjammer Surf Racers (which from what I saw looked meh) and then Xcelerator (which I did ride and is a worthy replacement).
I would still say that you gave people a freebie with the Goliath shirt since it was Déjà Vu at Magic Mountain. I am kinda bummed that I won't get to ride when I finally make it over to Six Flags New England (whenever that may be). Oh well- at least Aftershock is still around (haven't been to Silverwood yet either).
The more I see videos about rollercoasters, the more my fear increases about getting on them and I used to get on every single rollercoaster no matter how big
@@AirtimeThrills You were pretty amazing on this. For example, you knew that SFoT had a wild mouse named La Cucaracha? For anyone who didn’t grow up in Texas, that’s amazing.
How about a list of the top 10 (or 20) coasters that will make the average coaster rider (non enthusiasts) sick? I used to be able to ride anything when I was younger. Now most rides with multiple loops make me sick for like 2 hrs. after I ride it. I loved Pantheon but I was a sweaty/ queasy mess after.
@@AirtimeThrills It would be hard for you because you seem to have no problem handling any rollercoaster. It might take some research but I figured you'd be up for it...lol. For me some examples I've been on or avoided because I knew it would end badly were Laff Track, Joker (?) @ Great Adventure, and that thing next to Apollo's Chariot at Busch Gardens
I think a way to do this would be "most disorienting coasters" but specifically require that they be forward facing at all times so as to not just make it spinning coasters and 4D coasters. The one that comes to mind immediately for Europe would he The Smiler but I'm sure such a list wouldn't have to only be focused on the inversions. That said, you'd have to decide what you want to do with indoor coasters because they also complicate things. I find the Flight of Fear coasters to be pretty disorienting because they have a spaghetti bowl layout in the dark but I don't know if being in the dark should be excluded from the criteria either.
Before watching: Do you consider a coaster that rotated to another park as defunct for that park? That could make things weird. Edit: I think it's kind of odd to call a rotated coaster "defunct." By that standard are coasters like Olympia Looping considered defunct every time they move and therefore new credits every time they pop up elsewhere? I mean, just because a coaster was built to be moved isn't really relevant if you ask me. It's just the same coaster in a new place. If the coaster is still operating it feels weird to call it "defunct."
Let's see, without looking... Wild Maus, Wild Katze, Die Katzchen, Glissade, Loch Ness Monster, Big Bad Wolf, Drachen Fire, Alpengeist, Apollo's Chariot, Griffon, Grover's uh, uh, Alpine Express... Verbolten, Invadr, Tempesto, Pantheon, DarKoaster under construction... did I get 'em? [rcdb] ...OK, I misspelled a couple of those pseudo-German names.
I definitely notice the lag while doing quizzes on Sporcle. For me I think it has something to do with the ads on the site. I know they hate when you use Ad Block, but it works a lot more smoothly with it.
Yeah it could be the ads but this quiz was more laggy than I've ever seen. May have been a memory issue at the time I recorded it but it made my typos hard because I couldnt see what I was deleting
