Anybody else think the world is a better place because we have someone with mutton chops that wears a pork pie hat and provides roadside attraction and theme park videos?!? The world needs more characters.

And always a happy go lucky attitude. Very rare for him to get serious , only when he has to, but 99% of time, he is a happy guy who is enjoying his life !!! And most of us are not able to do what he does because we have to work a crummy job !!!! He makes videos that make everyone smile 😃

Throughout this video, I definitely had to lower the volume of my TV, he screams so much and it was so loud. Sometimes I can’t believe he’s that scared. But I’ve been watching him for a long time so I always know what to expect and I enjoy it actually, he’s one of the best if not the best Amusement Parks and haunts RU-vidr. And many other places he goes just intrigues me and I’m so glad to have him. He’s such a cool guy even though he does scream a lot lol. ❤

A friend of mine works as a restoration painter there full time. So much there is hand painted and hand maintained like it was when it first opened. In the "Mining Museum" there is a book of injuries and deaths that is absolutely wild. The 1000 piece puzzle was made by my friend and he hooked me up with one and some of the 50th anniversary tickets. Totally neat of him.

Jacob, you screaming NO on the Twister made me laugh so hard I choked on my own spit and damn near peed myself. I had to run to the bathroom! Also swan's are no joke. An adult swan's wing can hit with the force of a baseball bat.

Hi Jacob...Just went back in memory of my youth when us kids were guests at Euclid Beach amusement park on Lake Erie. There, too, was a wooden coaster ride called "Flying Turns". I cannot attest that Knoebel's purchased the ride, but it was definitely similar!

Our family stayed at the Getaway cottage on property a few years ago for my sons birthday. It was absolutely incredible to make breakfast and walk over to the park and hop right on Phoenix or anything else. There were days during the week where we had the park pretty much to ourselves. I loved finding weird quirky rides like the Slide, the Cosmotron, and the Satellite. I still have the iron fire poker I bought from the blacksmith shop. Super fond memories of that park and I would love to go back some day.

Back in the day the feed me paper pig was connected to a vacuum system and it would suck the paper in. I've been going here since I was a little kid camping with my parents and I still make sure to make it up at least once every year for a day and I'm in my 50's now. By far the best amusement park in my book!

I think there was a ride like this at old Coney Island in the old days.I know there was a similar ride at Efteling in the Netherlands.It closed in 2019.We like the small but rough Kozmo's Kurves.We also loved the Phoenix.Did you see Harry and Hattie the Eagles in the back?
