Drop Tower: Scream Zone at King's Island
In the exterminator queue I really want to know who does this broadcast
Caterpillar gone, whip gone, Ferris wheel gone, Jack in the Box gone. Plus so much more. Jumpin Jungle has almost nothing now. They've really gutted the place in the last 15 years. At least they're giving Story Book some attention the last two years. That's good to see.
,,,some degenerate druggie burned it down...destroyed a 3500 year old living being...I went several times to see it when I was growing up there in the 50s-60s...
Just went threw there today must say it's got a Lil kick to it fasho
I went on it and I literally felt like I was falling off a skyscraper 😭
❤
What happened? That means he’s the one that
I went on this ride today, but since I'm fat, I almost couldn't get on it. My leg was having difficulty getting over the horse. I accidentally got on the back seat and couldn't get over the middle part, so I had to bend forward quite a bit to hold on. About half way through I slid to the right a little bit and felt like I was going to get flung off. Not a bad ride. I just struggled to get on and stay on. If I was lighter, I think I would have enjoyed it more.
I can still hear the sound it’s motor makes
this is my favorite ride at elitch’s
This is such cool and rare footage!
Idk what park is this, but this ride looks smooth
I all the rides at many theme parks and loved the roller coasters better than the carousel but when I rode the Kings island carousel I did not want to go up and down so I rode the one of stationary horses
Magnificent carousel by PTC! Needs a real band organ for the full authentic carousel experience!
No pulls attached to a rotating lift thingy above you. Large diameter. No center mounted rotating core with mirrors/murals with music blaring out of it. Unusual carousel! Wish i could've rode it.
This woodie is gigantic got to see it two days ago
One of my favorite rides at Cedar Point as a kid in the 1970’s!
I lost my shoe on this when I was a kid lol.
There are only 3 5 row carousels left in the world, and this is one of them.
I've lived here my whole life and idk if I've ever seen all 3 running
3 running at once probably creates parameters and environments that aren't IAAPA compliant lol
@@hazeust I don’t mean all go to the top and drop at once, I just mean all cars being used at all. Lol. Normally it’s 2 or just 1.
Marvin... *sobs*
You got lucky with no semi traffic coming the other way, scared the hell out of me my one and only time on that bridge with trucks coming the other way, never again.
And now they charge an additional $5....

I think that guy is still there operating the same cable car - his voice sounds familiar, anyway.
Great traditional amusement ride and a real gem for any park that has one.
I went today for a school field trip and when the thing started shaking near the end everyone in my class started to scream then it looked like we where going to hit the mountain everyone thought we where going to die lets just say we didn't take the sky tram down
