WildStangAlex Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 I went to a local radio station's Christmas concert last weekend and Avicii's opening to his set featured coaster POVs from what appears to be Incredible Hulk and Kumba, which I thought was awesome. It can be seen around 0:45 here: I was just wondering if anybody else has had an experience where they saw POV of a coaster in an unexpected place. Were you at the Supermarket when El Toro's POV came up in the check out lane? Did you happen to see some POV while waiting in line at the DMV? Share your experience!

robbalvey Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 Not only do we end up seeing POVs or ride videos in weird places, but they always catch our attention and we end up stopping what we are doing to figure out what ride it is!

SingleRiderCam Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 In line for Revenge of the Mummy at USH, I see a ride video that shows both the Incredible Hulk and Orlando's RotM consecutively. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rctneil Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 I visited the Gadget Show in Birmingham at the start of this year and a company their was showing 720p cameras in a set of glasses (Robb's glasses were way better spec though) and they were showing off coaster POV's they had recorded at Alton a week or so before the show. A very very mini ride on kiddie coaster simulator at the local cinema also played POV's on coasters at Blackpool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WildStangAlex Posted December 19, 2013 Author Share Posted December 19, 2013 I still think this is my favorite random use of a roller coaster POV ever: THAT is awesome. Now that I've watched that video, I can remember seeing that a while ago, but had forgotten about it. Thanks for bringing that back up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VinTheAttendant Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 A very very mini ride on kiddie coaster simulator at the local cinema also played POV's on coasters at Blackpool. The local mall in my hometown has that same simulator. It used to do Blue Streak and Gemini at Cedar Point, but now it only does Big Dipper (and I think it does Big One, but I've only seen offride POVs of it when I happen to walk by).
