Best Damn Tip Sheet Period
Team Thriller replied to Hercules's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Walibi Belgium Park Management *Try to learn a little bit of French before coming to this park because the staff really aren't the greatest in any other language. *If you are planning to spend two or more days at Walibi, or planning to come back during the season, buying a season pass is cheaper. It pays for itself in only one and a half visits. *The prices are 30 euro for adults *If you are staying in Brussels, the train goes directly to the parks entrance from all over Brussels. *At Aqualibi, you are only allowed to wear speedos. (Sometimes though, bike shorts work.) *The lunch lines at the park run horribly horribly slow. So eat lunch at an unnormal time like 11:00 or 3:00 Best Time to go to the Park *AVOID beginning of summer because tons of schools take end of school trips and the lines are massive. *The beginning of the season, the park is empty *After summer the park is steady *The last few days before the season is over, the park is empty -Right when the gates open, run to Cobra, then Turbine. (Mainly because these can only run one train at a time) -After Turbine, ride Flashback, Dalton Terror, and then Calamity Mine. -Buzz Saw is also worth riding but beware, it might hurt your dark spot. -Then if Inferno is running, ride it because it's a great classic. -Tuff Tuff club is a very fun ride to ride after Inferno -Take advantage of the single rider line on Werewolf. Non-wheel seats are more comfortable. (Especially in the green train). Also, back row seats are loaded with airtime. -Vampire is smoothest upfront. -By the end of the day, Challenge of the Tutankhamon has the shortest line. Food Recommendations *The Crepes are amazingly good *The waffles are yummy *The best seat down place to eat is Restraint Tropica *Food is very expensive (especially with the euro) Ride Recommendations *Turbine is the best ride in the park, sadly though it only operates the 12 of June through the 31 August *Werewolf is the second best ride in the park *Cobra is a smoother bomberage *Calamity mine is a must ride for families. (It's best in the back car) *Dalton Terror is also a must General Info *The water on the water rides is very filthy, bring something to cover up *Turbine only runs between June 12 and 31 of August *Aqualibi is most crowded in Summer *Parking is 5 euro's --James -
I just got back from the Lt. Dan Band with Gary Sinise (Forest Gump, Apollo 13, the new CSI) It was very fun and action packed. --James

Final Destination 3 And Roller Coaster
Team Thriller replied to hopenui's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
^ Yeah, but stupid people who do stupid stuff at theme parks has nothing to do with the safety of the park. Almost all deaths at theme parks usually have something to do with the person: A.) Did something stupid B.) He or she ignored the health rules when they knew full well their health isn't in the right shape for a coaster. Trust me, roller coaster are extremly stafe. (With the exception of the Flip Flop which didn't last too long) It's a movie. It can really happen. --James -
Europa Park Tips
Team Thriller replied to devol4's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Yes, head to Silver Star first thing. Sit up front and on the first drop, lean forward. Then head to Matterhorn Blitz as that also has a very slow moving line, same with Euromir. Than maybe Poesidon, Swiss Bobbahn, Atlantic SuperSplash, and than Floyd Rafting. Do not eat between 12:00 and 2:00 because thats when everyone else eats. Get there as early as you can and you must run to every ride if you want to stay ahead of the crowds. The Log Jammer ride also has a long line, but it is fast moving. Eurosat is less crowded in the afternoon. So here is the ride list in order: 1.) Silver Star 2.) Poesidon 3.) matterhorn Blitz 4.) Swiss Bobbahn 5.) Euromir 6.) Atlantica Supersplash 7.) Floyd Rafting 8.) Log Jummer 9.) Alpenexpress 10.) Eurosat 11.) Pegesus 12.) Rerides Hope I helped and have fun Chris --James -
Weirdest Things The 'GP' Have Said
Team Thriller replied to maliboomer's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
When I was at Heide Park. This kid said in german to his friends: kid: Desert Race is the fastest coaster in the world me: No it's not. Than around an hour later. I saw the same kid and his friends by Collosos. kid: Collossos is the largest wooden coaster in the world me: No it's not. I didn't even know him, but his group seems a little confused. --James "Yes, that is one of the stupidest things a kid could say" Flint -
I'm going to go see Wall-E in the movies. YEAH! --James

El toro restraints
Team Thriller replied to vacoaster's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I remember when I was on Desert Storm (Similar to Rita: Queen of Speed for those who don't know) at Heide Park. This fatter person couldn't ride. Do you think the shoulder restraints can't support fatter people the same way that lap restrains can? --James -
Cedar Point TR and Review
Team Thriller replied to orangeblue's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
^^^ I remember when I was at Heide Park right before closing when it was empty. The rides seems to be bumpier, shaker, and not deliver that same airtime or force it usually does when the train is fuller. I think it does have do to with the trains weight, because remember when the changed the trains on X to X2, the trains where lighter which made the ride smoother. (Or at least, it was supposed to). Now, I'm not sure about the trains on Millinum Force, but I'm sure the ride is faster when the trains are fuller, thus means more 'air time'. --James -

It's okay. But make the train for the wooden coaster longer. Keep it up and I'm sure it will improve. --James -

How many hours of sleep did you get last night?

I got 14 hours of sleep because I was up very late watching movies. I love summer. --James -
This really bummers me. He was one of the few standups that could really make me laugh. I still love the airplane act: Attendent : In case of an emercency, the seat cushion can be used as a life vest. George : No way I'm going to us something a big f**ck probably farted in. Attendent : In case of an emercency. Please remain calm. George : How the hell I'm I going to remain calm. we are all going to die. Attendent : Before putting on your mask. Please help the little children with theres first. George : Screw the kids __________________________ There are so many good ones. I have a CD collection of him. Here is one more of my favorite: ______________________________ Man harming the Earth is a joke, I mean, we have volcano eruptions, plate technonics, tidle waves, hurricains, tornadoes, wild fires, comet crashes, mud slides, and they are all concerned if someone throws a f**cking can out of the car window. --James

I think the difference between Frosted Mini Wheats and Shredded Wheats are that Mini Wheats has more nuclear chemicals than Shredded Wheats. --James
