Goliath vs Goliath vs Goliath vs....I Think You Know Where This is Going... 

I still think Goliath Jr not being called simply ‘David’ is a missed opportunity

There were so many great one liners in this video. “With the help of Google Maps and the Pythagorean Theorem, you can see I’ve never ridden Goliath” Kudos on this one Chris!

7:45 First ElToroRyan, now Taylor. Chris is getting savage now

Please just name one coaster David, Six Flags...

“Big Daddy Goliath”-Airtime Thrills 2022

The big about the biblical Goliath was that he was a big dumdum who couldn't be bothered wearing a helmet and subsequently got nailed in the head with a 160km/h chunk of rock(the Old Testament doesn't like Philistines). With this in mind, the most historically accurate way to use the name for a coaster would be for an SLC or similar that causes lots of headbanging.

How I rank the Goliaths 7. Goliath 6. Goliath 5. Goliath 4. Goliath 3. Goliath 2. Goliath 1. Goliath Tell me what you think of my list and please share yours!

For once, my home park La Ronde isn't last at something ! Thank you SF for your originality, we made it into Chris's countdown 😆

I believe the reason why Goliath at La Ronde has Superman colors is because it was originally supposed to be at Astroworld, where it was to be themed to Superman. When Astroworld closed in 2005, the coaster ended up going to La Ronde instead.

“You staple me, I hate you forever” - Airtime Thrills, 2022

Goliath at Fiesta Texas was my first B&M, but back when it was at New Orleans as Batman. It was so smooth back in 2004 and I marathoned it until I almost upchucked my funnel cake. I also have a fond memory of Goliath at Over Georgia. My high school marching band was on a trip for a competition and we spent the first evening at Six Flags. My buddies and I all sat focused at attention for the on-ride photo and I gave a copy to my band director, good times!

7:41 I can’t tell you how hard I laughed at this part, this was so good to include Taylor from Coaster Studios when talking about that ride LMAO!!

Goliath in Walibi Holland is the only Goliath I've ridden, but it's a great ride with great airtime! It's sister coaster stands in Holidaypark Germany and is called Expedition G-Force, which has even better airtime! And then they built Kondaa ;-) Hahaha!

Goliath at SFOG was my first big coaster, so it has a very special place in my heart. Glad to see it getting the love it deserves! 😊

The reason I heard why Six Flags New England replaced the old trains on Goliath is because thought the staggered Vekoma trains were confusing and difficult for guests to board. I'm still confused why they sourced the job to Premier.

Personally, “I think you know where this is going” is my favorite one.

Im a fan of all the love goliath at sfog has been getting recently in the community

Goliath at Walibi Holland is a lot of fun! I don't understand why more people don't talk about it. It's definitely in my top 5 coasters.

I didn't expect to see the only "Goliath" I've ever ridden at number one. I haven't been to Six Flags Over Georgia in almost a decade, but the few rides I did get on Goliath were always so much fun.

This is a wonderfully silly concept for a video. I’m sure there are other names almost as common that you could do this with! Or names that are similar enough that it would work, like the variations of Superman

I love the Goliath that drops you down and then sends you upwards

I like that you even put in the effort to use the Goliath from my home country. Just shows you dont try to cut corners

Dude the jokes in this one are unmatched: fallout boy, pythagorean theorem, taylor making an appearance, and just the video premise as a whole! good vid

While watching this, I couldn't help but think of the Coaster Parodies from CS, where Taylor covered this. Then seeing Taylor on here made me laugh more. Well done, Chris.

The the Coaster Studios cameo. “He will staple you!” 😂😂😂

This is the best title I've ever seen on any RU-vid video

Only Chris would rank Six Flags New England’s Goliath over Magic Mountian’s Goliath.

Love Goliath at Walibi Holland! The Netherlands is not known for the tallest coasters, (Goliath is still the tallest), but this coaster is still butter smooth and still one of my favourites ever...

I've never been on Goliath, Goliath, Goliath, Goliath, Goliath, Goliath or Goliath

Being comedic can backfire so quickly and become cringe very fast... you succeded and that deserves a 👏

Love the Fall Out Boy album analogy. Especially because you only put their great albums on the screen 😂 perfect!

I am Dutch, so I only rode Goliath at Walibi Holland. I didn't expect it to come into second place, since it is less tall or fast than its American counterparts, but it is a fun ride with a lot of g-forces and some airtime. I still hope to experience o.g. Goliath one day, even though it might suck.

“You staple me, I hate you forever. No questions” YES lmao

We ended up going on the Goliath at SFOG this year when a nest of bees had decided to overrun the lift hill. They ended up shutting the ride down shortly afterwards, but i can say without a doubt that adding bees to s slow lift hill definitely up the intensity a good bit. Hopefully never doing Goliath with bees again. 😂😂🤣🤣 Adding bees to any coaster definitely ups the thrills but pretty much kills the re-rideability. LOL

Lately, your videos have been sooo fun. (I loved that Taylor joke)

glad to see SFOG finally getting a W in one of these coaster vids!!!

YESSSSSS!! Thanks for taking my suggestion! Also, I was low key hoping SFOG would finally get a number one, so I’m glad that came through, hahaha

I just want to mention, on the sum-up of the layout of goliath at walibi holland, the stangle dive is something to mention. It is kind of hangtime while not going upside down, is an awesome element and should not be forgotten.

When Goliath opened at New England, it had the original trains/staggered rows. It didn't change until a couple of years later!

So the intamin in the netherlands has a good spot in your list did not expect that you would remember the one all the way in holland...... btw i absolutly love the ride in the netherlands has some amazing airtime

I love Goliath. You know, the one at Six Flags.

My favorite out of these HAS to be Goliath

That Pythagorean theorem might be the most useful thing in the coaster world ....

The reason why they replaced the trains on Goliath at SFNE was because they thought that the staggered seats were weird, and wanted something easier and simpler. That’s at least part of the reason

Goliath at Walibi Holland: Starts of with a powerful but short drop, especially in the back. This is followed by a good intensity air time hill. After a short turn to the right, riders almost get scooped upside down in the stengeldive, a very unique element. Then, a very fast lefthander provides some great forces after which you go over a buckle. The ride then provides even more forces with a helix over the water. The ride is almost done, but the best part is yet to come: three airtime packed hills combined with a very fast and forceful final turn. Goliath in Walibi Holland is still one of my favorites. For its size, it packs more than some people expect. Great vid :)

yes goliath v goliath v goliath v goliath v goliath v goliath there are so many

Only ever been on one Goliath. The one at Six Flags.

I personally enjoy the drop on Goliath at Six Flags Magic Mountain, as it’s long and you definitely feel the speed when you’re going through the tunnel. I also think the airtime hill is pretty decent, however once you hit the mid course the rest of the ride is mediocre.

I really dig your videos. I enjoy how informative they can be to someone like myself, who LOVES coasters, but hasn't been to many parks. The Pythagorean Therom joke was good.

I got 1 season of rides at SFNE on Goliath before they replaced the trains, then a year later came back and was excited to get on my 2nd favourite ride at the time, just to have those new trains hurt me in every way. The reason they gave for the new trains was to increase capacity and reduce confusion because people would be confused which seats to sit in during dispatches. It was so disappointing when Goliath went from a must ride id to laps of to a skip every time I went to the park.

I've only been on one Goliath, and it was the SFOG one. I rode it in 2018, so I don't really remember much at all, but I remember that the airtime was great. Oh and also I accidentally ate a bug...

I only been on one Goliath, and that's the one in Holland, it is really big for someone who isn't used to coasters, I really had a fun time with it though. Maybe Walibi Holland is not the most impressive park to most, but it is the most impressive one to me in the Netherlands, so hope you will be able to visit it once. To me it has been years, for obvious reasons, but I can't wait till it is easyly possible again.

The “Dutch” Goliath is in my backyard and home park! And it was the best coaster in the park and BeNeLux for almost 20 years!!!

You forgot to mention the main attraction of the Dutch Goliath: It was the first coaster ever to feature a Stengel Dive on the third hill!

I love Goliath, just not that Goliath. I've never been on Goliath but dude I just LOVE Goliath. Man Goliath is also so cool.

"With the help of google maps, an pyhtagorean theorem, you can see ive never ridden goliath." best quotwe of the century

What I miss about AstroWorld...all unique names from the Free fall, Arrow suspended, SLC even Batman The Escape. Yes! Goliath even surpassed Batman & Superman. Also Texas has 3 Batman clones (SFoTX) Sea World of Texas as well. Only one of them is named Goliath though.

Ahhhhh you threw in a Google maps and Pythagorean theorem references. This is officially in your top 5 best videos of all time

I feel like the RMC and Fall Out Boy comparison was MADE for me I laughed so hard

With the help of Google maps and the Pythagorean theorem I honestly almost did a spit take! Loved this one

They changed deja vu’s trains because they thought the staggered seating would confuse the GP and with my Silverwood visit this summer I can see why as no one in that station could figure out how to find there seat luckily my family had me to guide them 😂

5:25 missed opportunity to include a “Don’t Staple Me Bro.”

Lots of Goliaths

The Goliaths: By the Numbers

Well I've only ridden one goliath from this list, and thats the one in my home park walibi holland, I can tell you this is a good solid ride, and the last bunny hops are indeed pretty good. It's pretty easy to get not stapled, and you will fly out your seat on these hops!! But another favorite on this ride for me is the Stengel Dive, that is so awesome!!

I love the Pythagorean Theorem bit.

I just got my first Goliath credit and it was the OG. I liked it. It had power, even though it lacked airtime. That mid course is a buzzkill but that helix is amazing with the positive G’s.

I live about 15 minutes from where the David-Goliath battle took place. I felt like telling that to the ride ops at SFGAm and then realized they probably don't care.

if i remember correctly, New England’s goliath had trains changed out because of the locking mechanism? i could be misinformed

I have been waiting for this video.. crazy that six flags couldn't come up with something more original.

Deja Vu had a issue with trains and weight. At Great America we also has this ride and it was removed after 3 seasons. The prior trains where too heavy to make it through the ride and failed too many times. Eventually it was down more than running.

I've ridden Goliath at Six Flags over Georgia. Just a super smooth and fun ride.

You have a real knack for coming up with simple, unique video concepts - videos that nobody else has done, but when you watch it, you think, why didn't I think of that! Not just this one, but a lot of the other series you've done as well, really creative and outside the box, but but not too far, keep up the good work.

"I don't care what the height is, it's all about the drop." Magnum XL-200 with it's 195ft drop......

They changed the trains on Goliath (NE) because the other way was confusing for guests

I love when you said “Goliath”

So happy he made a video about Goliath at six flags

Come on dude, Goliath ftw!

The Vekoma GIB is totally underrated in my opinion. Loved Deja Vu when it ran at SFGAm.

I think this is my favorite video of yours yet. You really took my brain for a ride, there. That grading system.... it's like the ride quality divided ➗ by the relevance of the name? Or kinda? Love it.

Can't wait for the Vipers ranked! And the Superman themed rides ranked. And the Jokers ranked. And... Damn Six Flags is lazy

“You staple me, I hate you forever”

Goliath at " some random park in Europe " is the only one I've ridden. On a pretty much empty day, the longest wait I had to do for it was barely longer then a station wait, and hot take: it's better than the RMC Untamed in the same park.

I love the Goliath at Over Georgia! Haven't ridden any of the others though. Also, Goliath as a name being taken down by a kid (David) fits, as kids ride the Goliaths practically every day lol

Last time I was this early Goliath was the tallest coaster in the world

Goliath in the Netherlands is my favorite Goliath out of all of these which I’ve ridden. Best airtime and positives. 2nd for me is Goliath in Georgia and then Goliath at SFGA. If Goliath at New England was still like Deja Vu at Magic Mountain it would be high on my list also.

I Rode the one over Georgia because I live in Georgia. I loved the amount of air time you get and the amount of intense dives and turns which makes it more enjoyable even if your riding it again. Sure I’ll become a little Mundane after awhile but it still has those hills where your off your seat and dives that push you forward and backwards and down.

I heard they wanted to replace Deja Vu’s trains on Goliath in order to reduce rider confusion and speed up loading. I don’t really agree with such a drastic measure, but I can kind of-almost-see what they were trying to do. The fact they didn’t slam the old ones back on after they knew everyone hated the new ones is embarrassing, though. As you said, Aftershock at Silverwood is still great!

Hi im Dutch, Nice to see the Walibi Holland Goliath 2end !

7:41 I am dying. I wasn't expecting it which made it 10x better.

I feel like an idiot. 🤦🏾‍♀️ Ive watched all the POVs on the Goliaths in N America, and I never realized they were all at Six Flags parks 😬

That comment about Google maps and the Pythagorean Theorem really hit the spot.👌 Fun video!

I loved the humor in this video, also personally the only Goliath I’ve ridden is the og, but I’d love to go on the one at Great America or Over Georgia

I think you stomped on Goliath at SFMM a little too much. It's fast, intense, and very smooth. You also get a decent moment of floater airtime. It's not the worst coaster of all time, but I'll admit it's not super good but not super bad like most enthusiast's make it out to be.

Your videos always get me pumped for coaster season.

Ok so… I love coasters, always have. Grew up going to Cedar Point, Kings Island, Geagua Lake. Was a member of ACE for like 15 years, even worked at CP for one summer “one and done, never again” have been to many opening days for many coasters….. and I actually almost love SAMM Goliath. It’s one of my favorite coasters and I didn’t get to ride till till I was almost 30. The only thing that keeps me from actually loving it is that damn MCBR. Other than that, yeah I love the damn thing! Also your comment about RMC and FOB was spot on since I freaking loved FOB back in the day, but I can’t be the only one who is starting to think that other than their rail coasters, are getting kind of stale. Yes they are amazing coasters, but still. I don’t know, maybe I’m just sad thinking of all the actual woodies that are being RMCed…. I haven’t rode Steel Vengeance yet since it’s been a decade since I’ve been back to CP, but Mean Streak was one of my favorite coasters ever… it seems I have unpopular coaster opinions

“You staple me, I hate you forever” -airtime thrills 👏👏👏👏👏

Amazing commentary on this one

Need more King David coasters XD

Thanks for the dinner reminder
