MayTheGForceBeWithYou Posted June 1, 2012 Share Posted June 1, 2012 I just saw a comment on a Splash Mountain video asking if you needed to know how to swim in order to ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cfc Posted June 1, 2012 Share Posted June 1, 2012 (edited) I just saw a comment on a Splash Mountain video asking if you needed to know how to swim in order to ride. The answer is "yes." You also need to be skilled in quantity land surveying and macrame. Edited June 1, 2012 by cfc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ajfelice Posted June 2, 2012 Share Posted June 2, 2012 Memorial Day night as I was closing Ravine Flyer II's line. Girl: Can you go get my phone I left on the ride? Me: Do you know if it's on the train or in the loose articles bin? Girl: No, I lost it on the ride. Me: Sorry, you phone is LONG gone. Girl: What the F#%K! I just got it last week!!! Me: I'm sorry to hear that, this is why we ask you to put loose articles such as phones into the loose articles bin or into a deep pocket. Girl: But I didn't want to lose it! Me: And holding onto it during the ride did you what good? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoasterKings908 Posted June 2, 2012 Share Posted June 2, 2012 Wouldn't surprise me if that chick complained or made a boycott group (or page) on Facebook all because she lost her phone on the ride. Stuff like that annoys me, I mean why made a big fuss over something like that when it was their fault to begin with? I swear some of the GP make me fear for the future of mankind.

Me: And holding onto it during the ride did you what good? Reminds me of the ever-so-bright kid (as the mother claimed that her kid is highly intelligent) who lost his phone on V2. An angry mother went on SFDK's Facebook complaining about the lost phone and how it landed on the nets but was no longer there later...and how Six Flags should be responsible for it. The rest of the GP commenting on that status all sided with me with my claim that "Six Flags is NOT responsible for lost, damaged, or stolen items."

australianalex Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 On TPR's Pyrenees POV. B&m does good on launch coasters there inverted not so much Wait, what? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simaticable Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 Funny thing is that the only B&M launch coaster was Hulk, and the launch was created by another company. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tiger01 Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 On a Cheetah Hunt POV this person commented... Going to California this summer to get out of the heat... excited to go to California Adventures and Disneyland!!!!! ;D Right, first off, he/she said he wanted to get out of the heat so he's going to California in the summer??? WTF? Secondly, why is he/she posting this on a POV of a coaster on the other side of the country? On the same video someone asked... Which park is that cuz if it's NE I am all set THE PARK NAME IS IN THE TITLE!!!!!! READ!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAWKIN_coaster38 Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 Right, first off, he/she said he wanted to get out of the heat so he's going to California in the summer??? WTF I've only been to the east coast once but I thought it was much hotter over there than in CA. Most places in California have very temperate weather.

imawesome1124 Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 On the Shambhala POV: The superman rollercoaster in Warner Bros Park Madrid is way better...this one has nothing new...and no loopings (superman has two, and one is the biggest in spain).Believe me, the best rollercoasters are in Madrid First of all, Superman has 7 inversions, second it makes me so mad when GP always thinks that inversions are the only things that make a coaster good. Third, it also has Coaster Express, one of the worst coasters in the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KoasterDan Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 I overheard two people talking about Bizarro at Six Flags New England. Guy 1 "Dude, did you see what they did to the superman?" Guy 2 "No, what did they do?" Guy 1 "They took the first drop, and made it 100ft higher!" I've been so annoyed listening to all these confused GP talk about Bizarro's transformation for the past 4 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A.J. Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 Saw this on the Formula Rossa video:is it faster than cheetah hunt? You know, there are plenty of people who don't even know that Formula Rossa exists, let alone its top speed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VinTheAttendant Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 ^I would agree with you, but the mentioning of "World's fastest coaster" is revealed once in the title, once in the description, three times in the actual video, and three times in the video tags. So really there's no logical reason to question why another coaster goes faster than the world's fastest coaster. The specific speed of Formula Rossa is irrelevant.

XYZ Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 On the Apocalypse (Six Flags America) POV by TPR: That could be the wonderful Los Angeles seasonal workers.It's one of the bigger well known Six Flags park and it's a shame it's one of the worst treated.I go to the Disney/Universal parks a lot so I rarely see low quality parks. Well, say that to Magic Mountain who cares nothing about their rides and park. They tore down Psyclone, the only Coney Island replica left. They tore down the Log Jammer, the Flashback, and the park has overpriced nasty food, overcrowded lines, really hot areas, and their maitenence is very poor. Apocalypse: The name you give to a relocated coaster which companies are too lazy to plant any form of greenery to spruce up it's dirt surroundings. Joking aside, it is nice to see this coaster actually now seems as if it was designed for the location it was rebuilt (even thought it wasn't), unlike when it was first built on top of Z-Force's old location at Six Flags Great America. And Robb, I have to ask: How EXACTLY much of an improvement are the new trains over the old Intamin ones? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WTF I've only been to the east coast once but I thought it was much hotter over there than in CA. Most places in California have very temperate weather. I'm pretty much scared to leave the West Coast long-term since I'm so used to the reasonably mild weather here. I don't know how I'd deal with the high humidity, extreme heat and cold, and frequent severe weather events that seem to plague most of the rest of the country!

When I spent a summer in Ohio working at CP, I never got used to it. The heat was never easy and it was so obnoxious to wake up to clear sunny skys and by 3 in the afternoon have crazy thunder and lightning and flash floods, only to be clear and warm agin that evening. I absolutely love west coast weather, we are severely spoiled here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
