I've been really blown away by the kind comments on this video. Thank you. 🥹
In the '90s, a family-owned theme park built the world's fastest coaster with the longest drop.
A decade later, they redesigned and rebuilt more than two-thirds of it.
This is the story of Steel Phantom and The Phantom’s Revenge at Kennywood Park, now on YouTube.

I need a 13-hour version of the Seuss Landing area loop. Hitting replay every 20 minutes is dampening my whimsy.

Anyone who creates HHN houses might have the best job in the world. Anyone who tears down HHN houses might have the worst job in the world.
I wouldn't want to be the one to rip La Casa Creación apart. 😔

Today is the final day of operation for Six Flags America.
It opened in 1974 as a wildlife preserve, becoming an amusement park years later.
As a farewell to the park, here's a little thread about its collection of roller coasters. 🧵

One last plug. Thanks everyone for your kind comments on this one!
If you're looking for something to watch, you may enjoy my latest video. It's a deep dive about Steel Phantom, a former record-breaking coaster that was rebuilt after a decade.

I was supposed to be out in the fog tonight, but life had some other plans. I've had some significant expenses pop up, but enjoy if you're able to get out there tonight!
Someone do Gálkn for me please. 🥲 Happy Halloween, everyone.

I somehow managed to mention Islands of Adventure in this video btw
Happy Halloween! I may or may not have posted a new video on YouTube dot com.
The Phantom's Revenge has an unusual history. Only a decade after it broke records, it was redesigned and mostly rebuilt. It's an interesting one.
Check out the link below and sit back, grab some candy corn, and enjoy. 👻

Here's the timeline for my next video. It's about 55 minutes long.
This took a long time, but hey, it's worth it for one of my favorite coasters. Looking forward to sharing it for Halloween.

In the midst of the coaster wars, one unlikely park joined the contest.
The family-owned Kennywood stood among giants in 1991 with the world’s fastest coaster and longest drop.
Only a decade later, it closed to be redesigned and rebuilt.
New video soon. Stay tuned. 👻

I got to visit Fright Fest at Six Flags Over Georgia last night; it was better than expected!
The Conjuring Universe was definitely the star, but I enjoyed it all—except the part where I was swallowed alive in the clown house. 😳
Here's a thread about my thoughts. 🧵

One of the best parts of any fandom is how there's always something for everyone. We don't always agree because we have different preferences; that's why we have a variety of incredible attractions.
But what's an attraction we can all agree is a 10/10, everyone loves it?
