Thank you for watching Theme Park Callum.
this made me literally cry, I spent so much of my time there and when the water ride tune on it brought back so many memories
This was my childhood park and always will be I went on every ride and I was the last person there on the last day open
I have seen videos from when my older sister (she ten years older than me ) was like 3 a was having fun and we live very near the park and my family is struggling with financial problems and pleasure island was always a privilege to go to and it was fairly cheaper than other theme parks so it was a day out and pleasure island will forever in my heart and will be missed
Thank you for sharing, it was a park that many will miss!
Maisie Elle same I love that park and I'm so sad it shut down and we always went in summer as a treat and I'm crying as I watch this thinking I'll never be able to walk through that park again
Maisie Elle well its closed now fml

Indeed.
Did You Ever Get To Pleasure Island When It Was Open.
I really miss Pleasure Island and it's a shame it's shut down
It sure is!
Leo Scrimshaw it got bankrupt
Declan no, it didn’t technically go bankrupt , they weren’t earning enough money, neither had enough money, I believe Voltar caused a lot of the havoc in the last few years off operation, I believe it would have closed a few years later if it wasn’t for voltar
RIP Pleasure Island, I wanted to go there this year, too bad, it's shut down! I can see it wearing out anyway! Why????!!!!!!
I wanted to go as well, it's a shame I couldn't.
CassiestarMSP because they didn't get enough money in 2015
Jess P. it didn’t technically go bankrupt , they weren’t earning enough money, neither had enough money, I believe Voltar caused a lot of the havoc in the last few years off operation, I believe it would have closed a few years later if it wasn’t for voltar
@Vampire it’s not just that tho, they’d been on this track for years ! Not to mention voltar fucked them over BECAUSE of all the issues it had
@@maxhinesman4302 yeah
I have a funny memory from pleasure island on alakazam my sister a nose bleed and they had to shut the ride for 1 hour to clean it
OscarGames no way I was there a few years ago when something like that happened 😂😂
Rip pleasure island will always hold a very special place in my heart

One of the water rides was called the splash. It was a boat that was pulled up a steep slope, traversed about 15 metres then went down a steep ski jump like slope with a jump on the end. The boat left the jump and splashed it in the water. It opened in 93-94 and closed 1 or 2 years later due to back injuries.

I miss thus place too even though I'm 8 I've still been there
That looked like a good park, I never went there, but it looked good. RIP Pleasure Island.
Great video Theme Park Callum. Merry Christmas
Also Tommy Tinkaboo, looks to be the same sort of design as Bubbleworks at Chessington (RIP Bubbleworks)
It did look like a good park. Thank you and Merry Christmas to you too Arron!
I swear you are gonna feel so freaking emotional about this literally 😢😣😖😫😩🥺🥺☹️☹️😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 Wahhhhhhhh!!
Tristar was only at Pleasure Island from 1993-1994 after its time at Alton Towers from 1990-92. it was Relocated to Flamingo Land as Flamingo Star from 1995-2004 to make way for Velocity which resulted in Flamingo Star being relocated to Pleasurewood hills as Thunderstruck/tide traveller.
R.I.P. Aquasphere 2011-2014
i live in port alberni in canada on vancouver island and i do not know were pleasure island is and it would probably be really far away for me so i wouldn't even be able to go and i have never even heard of pleasure island and i have never been to pleasure island before so i will never get to go because it closed so rest in peace pleasure island rest in peace
Lisa Mieth it's in Cleethorpes
I live in cleethorpes so this is sad to watch
I only had two chances to get in pleasure island
I'm really sad that it closed... I spent a lot of my summer weekends there with friends when I was younger... one of the buildings inside pleasure island was recently set on fire, that also needed to be removed... no plans have yet been made for the land as far as I'm aware, but I do know and over 16 airsoft event will take place there in September time I think... so sad it's gone...
- AppleTheKitsune- it was a live performance area where this African dance and stuff, it was only made of wood and the roof look pretty flimsy...
- AppleTheKitsune- it's a good idea, but wouldn't be the same...😢
Cheese Toastie Plays Games yeah me too the only thing that can lift my spirits.. Is... Actually nothing really...
Nebby Loves to play games same... if I want to go to a theme park now, I go to Alton Towers, but it's a bit far to go just for a day out, and especially when most of the time I dont know what I want to do until around midday...
great video so sad to see it go really i wonder which ones have actually gone to showmen there was also, as you said a flat rides one of them being called break dancer which was my all time fave ride to operate yes i use to work there, the main rides i use to operate was the boomerang, terror rack, break dancer, and the big wheel. had some good times back then
Thank you Leslie, it sure is sad to see it go. I bet you do have some great memories there!
So many happy childhood memories so sad this has closed down!!! I had some wonderful days out with my family absolutely loved it. The Tommy tinker boo ride was my favourite we alway went on it last before exiting through the gift shop before going home then to mc Donald's for tea on the way back
It's really interesting to see this, I was at Pleasure Island last weekend as part of a three day airsoft event. As we were playing around the park I was wondering what it would have been like through the years. It's a bit of a ghost town now!
R.I.P. Hydromax 2006-2016
Did this replace Dream boat
They did Have Some Brilliant Rides Alton Towers Could Buy Rides like Hydromax or pendulus ETC Flat Rides to Repmace Ripsaw and Submission
They did have some good rides, yes! Unfortunately, I don't see Alton Towers buying any rides from Pleasure Island. Pendulus has been sold to an unknown Asian park!
+Theme Park Callum Why not ?Alton Towers would benefit from flat rides ! Does Alton Towers think these rides are bad quality and knock off ?
Yes, and Merlin Entertainments doesn't really like flat rides!
+Theme Park Callum such a shame
R.I.P Awesome New Soundtrack For Tinkanoo's Sweet Adventure it sounds great it is a mixture of Bubbleeorks at Chessington WOA And Sea Aauarium at Fantasy Island
R.I.P. Mini Mine Train 1993-2016
R.I.P. Alakazam 2002-2016
Hang on i cannot remember Tristar being at Pleasure Island. It was however at these amusement parks and theme parks as Followed in this order late 80s to early 90s at Dreamland Margate as tristar, early 90s at Alton Towers as tristar and 1995-2004 at Flamingo Land as Flamingo Star and 2005-current Time at Pleasurewood hills as Tide traveller. whereever you got the information from you have been mislead. as i used to ride it at flamingoland the whole 9 years it was there.
R.I.P. Sea Lion Show 1993-2016
I wanted to see 2017 pleasure island but then I remembered
There isn't a 2017 pleasure island
Unfortunately not!
The least thilling attraction= boomerang the most thrilling= frog hopper
RIP this was my childhood park
ZumaPlays same here. And my childhood isn't even over. I guess it is now there is no point going to Cleethorpes
ZumaPlays I
R.i.p jeff
That's kinda short life for a theme park.
R.I.P. Jungle Ride 1993-2009
I'm in tears.
Suzy Lanca
Same.
I'm just glad I went on the best rides the last time I went there.
its so sad to see pleasure island go, it was my childhood ;-; I made the most out of the last time I went. merry late Christmas!
It is sad, Merry Late Christmas to you too!
Pleasure Island just didn't invest enough. Most of the rides operating in 2016 were there from 1993, the park needed to add some major attractions, and that's why it closed :(
That's very true!
Pleasure island closing was and still is a massive loss to the area
I'm sad because I recently saw an urban exploration video of the (Kind of ) abandoned pleasure island - but it gives it publicity and now Vandals will break in and if they don't get security , in a few years the park will be damaged beyond repair - just like what happened to camelot :(
Yeah I saw something like that too! It's such a shame really!
+Theme Park Callum THEY NEED SECURITY HORRID VANDALS WILL KILL PLEASURE ISALND
they have got security there are still people working at the park for the sea lions and for security
I requested this ages ago and forgot to check to see if it was made so thanks
Thank you for watching!
Wow that video was great the quality of your videos has improved a lot keep Up the good work. And a meeeerrrrrrrryyy christmaaaaaaaasssssss
Thank you Kian! Merry Christmas to you too!
I will miss plesure island
So will I.
I used to go bout 10 times a year and the hydro max was my fave ride #R.I.P Pleasure Island
It's a shame it's now closed.
cool, from your Cleethorpes friends :)
Thank you!
no dramas!
I had my last visit to Pleasure Island on the 22nd of October, Sadly I knew it was closing then. Besides the Hyper Blaster I hope The Hydromax, Obliterator & Alakazam stay in the UK, It's bad enough seeing The Boomerang, Mine Train & Pendulus being exported.
Yes, I have to agree with you, I do hope those rides stay in the UK.
another park to the Theme Park Graveyard joining American Adventure and Camelot Theme Park
AND CRINKLEY BOTTOM
R.I.P Tinkaboo Town 1997-2005
That zierer 4 man bob went everywhere. Someone needs to buy it off loundoun castle so we can see its return (come on lightwater valley)
It did move about quite a bit. Apparently Loudoun Castle will be reopening in 2018 as part of a major investment to the park! Not sure how true that is though!
Theme Park Callum
Hopefully it will. The U.K. Needs a Schwarzkopf looper.
Twist N shout is just sitting there.
i live just down the road and have been going there all my life gutted its closed for good :(
I can imagine, especially as it's your local park!
I bet that Tommy Tinkaboo soundtrack got on all the staff’s nerves
This genuinely saddens me as this was my childhood park, I rode the paratrooper since I was like 5
It is sad, such a shame it closed.
Theme Park Callum good video tho by far your best series and well put together
We’re do you find out we’re all the rides got sold to
I went to this park and it was great and we were hoping to go back to ride a ride that had shut down (boomerang I believe) and I just recently heard it shut down this is really sad and I really miss it even though I only got to go once.
R.I.P. Tommy Tinkaboo’s Sweet Adventure 1993-2016
Rip pleasure island😭🙏🏻🙏🏻
Indeed
In memory of pleasure island 1993 to 2016 missed by fans
20th of October was 22 days after my birthday
Boomerang was sent to Indonesia after getting a refurbishment in the Netherlands
Gutted it's closed. I bet it'll get turned into housing. But would love a massive go kart track or something other than more great places being turned into housing
R.I.P. Flying Chairs 1993-2016
I saw an abandoned condor at M&D's in 2023
Didn't Boomerang go to Pleasurewood hills?
Next make fantasy island near butlins
Pleasure Island died
R.I.P. Crazy Loop 1996-2002
If were a huge billionaire, I would've bought out the land where Pleasure Island was and make a new theme park out of it....
If only!
i would of bought the rides and the site and get it running again like it used to be
They could of sold their rights to the merlin because they own half of the attractions in the UK and could of made pleasure Island look a lot better
I live in the south so it was too far away, so I never went there. 😭
That's fair enough!
Sidney Tilley Same
Sidney Tilley Yeah, I'm stuck in the south too and so desperate to get out to Alton Towers!
I haven't been to Alton towers in 6 years because of that. What's worse is my home park is Diggerland in strood!
i live in port alberni in canada on vancouver island and i do not know were pleasure island is and it would probably be really far away for me so i wouldn't even be able to go and i have never even heard of pleasure island and i have never been to pleasure island before so i will never get to go because it closed so rest in peace pleasure island rest in peace
are any other rides going to other UK parks besides the Hyperblaster?
I'm not really sure!
What is the name of the raicing stadium.
Not hyperblaster it looked so good and I'm not allowed on the huge drop towers and it was a very small drop tower
Where are The RCT3 and Plannet Coaster Christmas Speacials
I am no longer doing these videos! Sorry.
Just the Christmas Special tomorrow!
Maybe if the owner kept it jointly with Flamingo Land it might of stayed open
RIP pleasure it will be missed but AWESOME vid tho.
It sure will be missed! Thank you!
Can you do a brean theme park history
Noooooooo 😢😰😟😯😥😦😵😣😖😓😿
anyone know where else in England there is a ride identical to The Hydro-Max?
Im stuck in the south so desprate to get out to Flamingo land because thats the last theme park that i have to do in the UK
It is a good park, with a great selection of rides!
So Sad That It's Gone Now. Wish I Could've Gone On Tommy Tinkaboo :'(
So am I, I wish I had done Tommy Tinkaboo, as well as the other rides!
Theme Park Callum same. :( Can't believe all those rides managed to stay there for the whole time that the park was open
Me Too I Did Boomerang & A Few Others
What is the music at 5:41?
Nice music what's it called
Some them go the Netherlands unknown theme park
Is this the abandoned theme park? Also, that's a lot of rides that opened in 1993 lol.
6:16 unkown asian park is fantawild wonderpark
I'm pretty sure that this park closed and reopened then closed again that same year
I don't think so, not as far as I am aware!
oww I thought it did
the gamer boy for Halloween maybe ? fireworks ?? it only reopened for that
yeah that's it
You should clap at 1:06 and 2:55
Omg I never knew this closed! My childhood park :((((
It's such a shame!
I DIDNT TILL LAST YEAR!!

Samuel Sanchez Ramirez An Aldi shop from what I've heard. I'm not even joking.
