NEVER Do This On A Roller Coaster - Theme Park Nonsense

- čas přidán 6. 09. 2024
- Roller Coasters are amazing feats of engineering that safely give millions of rides each year. That doesn't stop people from trying their best to make them unsafe. Today we’ll be looking at several different cases of people doing just this, usually seeking some kind of social media attention. Funny amusement park rides videos.

1:00 So you are telling me some dude at the parks maintenance saw a fish laying in the ride parameter and just went: 'yes, it rains fish here sometimes' and didn't report it!?
Well funny story with that one... I was team leader of the ride that year and I personally saw the fish in the low zone. I figured a bird dropped it, it also floods a lot over there so I thought it could have got in that way. I actually have a photo of the fish in the low zone (used in the animation of it hitting someone) because I thought it was bizarre and funny. Never realized till the end of the year that this happened.
@@CoasterCollegelmao....
@@CoasterCollege the sheer terror you must've experienced when the video was finally posted and you put two-and-two together LOL
@CoasterCollege I saw this clip and thought it had to be fake when it first made its rounds. Saw it here, "Wait... That (crap...(carp??)) was real?!?!?"
@@CoasterCollege Lol bet you never guessed the answer to the fish mystery was some dumbass with a spear
1:54 im a Dominator op and i remember when the crew found this video. apparently the guy had hid the ice cream in his pocket and waited until he was high lift to take it out, when it was about to disengage. all we could do after seeing it was escalate it higher and hope something came of it
Could you explain your last sentence, please? You mean you forwarded it to park authorities and hoped they investigated?
@@StamfordBridge yeah basically. the park has pressed charges for serious incidents before but i dont know if they considered this serious. at least, i hope, he would've gotten a ban. i know the crew and i definitely wont let him ride again regardless lol
@@dragunyahov Honestly i'd rather have an ice cream cone smack me in the face than a phone or something as heavy or heavier, but even then... These people just never think of others, do they?
3:56 oh, so HE is the reason BGW employees now staple everybody down. Thanks to that guy for ruining it for everybody else
Yep, blame roar.o.torris. He did the same thing on Mine Blower at Fun Spot Kissimmee
Your last line should have been repeated very loudly "Don't be the reason rides get changed to have more restrictive restraints" I watched several videos of juvenile delinquent minded people trying to stand up on the Phoenix. Can you imagine Phoenix with seatbelts and ratcheting lap bars just because of a few idiots?😡
Or get a ride operator fired or charged with neglected because you decide to something stupid
@@annearly3200 if it’s during an unwatchable part of the ride, and they put signs stating not to stand up, then the ops probably won’t get in legal trouble. They’d probably get some retraining though.
@@Stagnant_GravyWatch any on ride POV on Phoenix. On every seat there is a plate near the lap bar reading "Remain Seated" some people think that's a bit sarcastic when it comes to the awesome airtime that Phoenix has.
What's wrong with seatbelts and ratcheting lap bars?
@@dothedo3667They're not compatible with Phoenix. It is the number one reason of many reasons why Phoenix has won so many Golden Ticket awards for Best Wooden Coaster. Many well-seasoned coaster enthusiasts agree that buzz bars are what makes Phoenix great.
3:01 This reminds me of a similar but worse incident that happened at Disneyland Paris not too long ago. A woman got out of a boat in It’s a Small World as the ride was down and she then stood on one foot on the edge of the trough/rail thingy (she actually took the time to remove her shoes and roll up her pants so that they didn’t get wet) and then proceeded to move her kids out of the boat, all of this while cast members were yelling at her to stop. This was all recorded but I couldn’t find the clip on YT, maybe if you do you could put it in a future Theme Park Nonsense vid ! Keep up the great work!
Must be pretty recent. Saw it just the other day. Hope she was not only removed from the park but possibly charged with other stuff. Not following park rules might be trespassing. Idk. Might depend on local laws. She endangered children!
@@UwePieper Trespassing, child endangerment potentially.
If you hear enough of the cases of deaths on roller coasters, it is quite striking how many involve riders/parkgoers doing something against park rules. Clearly not all cases and I don’t know the percentage, but in quite a lot of cases.
Imagine having to call emergency services because some dumbass decided to drink with his lungs on a roller coaster
I have to admit having participated in a "cup contest*" on a rollercoaster once, many years ago.
But...
1. That was an event for enthusiasts, organized by the park. It happened not just with permission, it was encouraged by park management.
2. We only used thin-walled plastic cups and plain water. The ones that wind can knock off the table when they are less than 50% full.
3. It was not during normal operation, so only participants and staff were around.
4. The ride was comparable in size and intensity to a wild mouse. So even if a cup at gone flying, with these lightweight cups, not much would have happened. We only got wet. Very much so. But I guess that was the point...
Under these circumstances I think that's okay. But not just for some stupid social media stunt.
*)Before dispatch, each rider is given two cups full of water. After the ride, it is measured how much water is left, and a ranking is established. Who gets back to the station with the biggest amount of water wins a prize.
Clearly, if it’s organized by the park it’s totally different.
Basically the moral of the story: Don’t ruin rides and parks for everybody else
I think for a lot of people, they think it’s “wild and crazy and funny” NOT to think of anyone else. For me it’s one of the lowest forms of humor.
Trust me, I don’t like getting slammed into a ride. But I also like being able to talk about the ride after.
I’m also sick of people who bring selfie sticks on roller coasters to film themselves riding. Like dude! There’s a reason why Disney banned them from their parks and you are going to find out why.
I'm gonna just say this: even if you are stapled, you wont just stop feeling negative g forces.
Who tf even thinks about throwing a raw fish at a roller coaster, people are wild
Prime at Canada’s Wonderland, Fish Slapping at Cedar Point, Lost Ice Cream at Kings Dominion, jumping off a wooden coaster (likely Comet at Great Escape), and getting loose from the restraint at Busch Gardens Williamsburg…
These parks need a break from these idiots
I think the fish video could've been at Dorney Park or Worlds of Fun as Steel Force and Mamba have a similar track and train design.
I think The video where the guy Jumped off the wooden coaster was from The Great Escape in NY. The Coaster was the Comet.
@@kpsonicdude Thanks
@@IsleofPigsStudios Your Welcome
the Kings Dominion dude was from a channel called Unemployed. I watched that video. Basically, it was a challenge he had to complete for this game they were playing. They were playing freeze tag, i believe
“His dad should have used a magnum xl 200.”-some comment I saw on the video of the first one
I’m surprised you didn’t put the video of the person jumping off Big Thunder Mountain as it was going up the lift to retrieve his phone in the video
People can do so many stupid things just for clout.
3:50 that scared me. How do you even leave a restraint open that much and nobody notice?
it's crazy to think that dueling dragons might still be open if it weren't for some loose articles
I used to think people complaining about "stapling" was extremely stupid, then I experienced it for myself.
I was getting on Batman at Magic Mountain. I pulled my restraint down, and I noticed that there was a little bit of give in the restraint. I tried to pull it down farther, but determined that I could not do so comfortably and figured that extra bit of give was fine, and I knew it was down enough to be safe. I think we've all been in that situation where we're in between two "clicks" on a restraint.
The ride operator came around and put his whole weight on it and forced the restraint down that extra click. I tried to say something, but he didn't listen.
I am female... I have a rather large chest, which caused it to be squishy enough to allow him to push it down beyond what was comfortable... and to make matters worse, I have a condition called costochondritis, which causes horrible pain in my chest wall from problems with my ribs.
I was in... so... much pain... throughout the ride. Then there was an issue in the station (probably some issue with loose articles or something) that caused the next train to take a while to load, so I was stuck in the holding brake for a bit... literally using my hands to try to hold my breasts into the middle part of the chest harness so that I could breathe without pain because it felt like I had knives stabbing into my chest each time I inhaled because of the pressure.
When I got off the ride, I had to take my prescription emergency pain medication, and I actually had to leave the park early because it had triggered my condition, and it hurt too badly to sit up or walk to spend the rest of the day at the park. The chest pain was excruciating, all because some ride operator took it upon himself to push the restraint down too hard, and compress my ribs too much for me to comfortably... breathe.
Ride operators should NOT be putting that much pressure on the restraints. Make sure it's secure and press down, sure, but when you feel RESISTANCE because you have hit up against a squishy part of the park goers body, then you should stop pushing. This guy needs a serious anatomy lesson about what breasts are, why your rib cage needs enough room to move, and why you can't compress a woman's breasts against her rib cage because it will make it difficult for her to breathe...
All of that said, people who don't push their restraints down enough so they can try to stand up on the ride are total idiots... but ride operators who "staple" you and don't leave you enough room to breathe are total assholes too.
0:26 isn't this considered some form of attempted assault?
Yes it is...the guy probably would've gotten away with it if he hadn't posted the video because noone knew it happened. But once it was posted, yeah the authorities got involved, because yes it's a literal crime.
loved this video!! your educational and lighthearted videos are both amazing, i feel like this could even be considered educational in a sense as some people may not consider that their items could hit someone else
3:01 worst thing is you don‘t only endanger yourself. Just think of the time Python at Efteling was evacuated back to front and went over the lifthill because of the shift in weight… that was the fault of ride ops, but similar things can happen when they just leave, as well. (Clip seems to be close to the ground though)
Yup, they decided to evacuate without engineer giving the go ahead. Good thing it was just a small bit...
Wait, isn't prime another scam from the logan paul ? Maybe i am wrong.
Not really a scam, in the sense that the drink exists and can be purchased. But there’s a ton of artificial scarcity which has caused people to get genuinely hurt, and also from everything I’ve seen and heard, it tastes like complete garbage.
Not legally a scam, just $0.1 piss sold as a $8 drink and advertised as all hell
It’s a legit product, there’s an energy drink with way too much caffeine and a Gatorade-ish sports drink. I’ve had the popsicle flavor of the sports drink once, it was alright. There's a lot of weird hype around it, which I don't understand because I despise Logan Paul.
It's not a scam as in you pay money for a product and get it, but nutritional content was concerning enough that the caffeinated version has been blocked from sale in a few countries
Not really a scam, but is something that can actually be purchased. The problem with Prime is that it has way too much caffeine in it compared to other energy drinks, not only that it’s artificially scarce and hard to find
Don't buy prime drink in the first place.
2:15, that was so funny, i actually audibly laughed
I’m not huge on coasters, but I’ve always found your videos extremely interesting, well researched, and informative. Do you think you’ll do a video on common misconceptions in this series? Keep up the great content!
I was a ride operator at Cedar Fair Park and a lift operator at a ski resort. Stupid people are the reason you can not take certain things on ride
Not exactly coaster related, but there was a video last month of a lady jumping off a Disney boat ride (I think it was Gran Fiesta Tour) when the boats were stacking up near the unload area. She got out of the boat and walked up the catwalk to the exit despite riders and cast members telling her not to.
What’s even more ridiculous is that most of the comments on that video were like “oh Disney can’t hold people on a ride for that long, she has every right to get out.” Well, I’m pretty sure in a situation like that a cast member needs to be present to assist in helping people off the ride. Had the ride started moving again while the lady was jumping out, she could’ve slipped and fallen. God forbid she fall into the flume water with moving boats.
0:20 “Ooh, Fish slappers”
"Mm, mm, mm!"
W veggie tales reference
Moral of the story
is anyone a personal fan of these people's content or even does anyone know who any of these people are?
no?
then they put not just themselves but many others in danger for NOTHING
People are asking to get laughed at or getting seriously injured getting out of a roller coaster train when it’s not in the station
A fish flying and hitting you on a fast roller coaster looks so painful
No kidding I remember I heard a news story where a kid was stupid enough to go to an area on a roller coaster he was not supposed to be in. The kid got his head up on a track and his head decapitated. Unfortunately you see people doing stupid things in theme parks all the time.
It was with Batman: The Ride. He lost his hat during the ride, and instead of asking a park official to get his hat for him, he decided to climb over the fences and retrieve it himself, resulting in the tragedy.
I’d honestly like to see more videos like this!
2:22 absolutely killed me, but also actually kind of true considering I renewed my Knott's pass and not my Magic Mountain pass.
I really liked this video! I love your in-depth videos, but this one was nice as a video that was just light and easy to watch. The editing made it even better. I’d love to see more of these every now and then.
Love this series! That last one made my heart skip a beat
The last bit about not wanting to do something stupid that makes restrains more restrictive made me remember about a couple of accidents that happened at Six Flags Mexico around 2019. There used to be two rides, one was a wheel of fortune and the other one a really calm ride with some circles on a spinning plataform. Both of them had the characteristic that individual gondolas could be spin by passengers with a variety of speed depending on their force and decision and neither of them had restrains, just reminders at the beginning of the journey to never stand up in the middle of the ride (quite obvios), and the personal was there the whole time and could (and back when I attended pretty much every week I got to see) scold people if they were not listening to the rules.
Well with about a year apart there were this two accidents were teenage boys stood up in the middle of the ride and fell off, fortunately none of them died, but the wheel of fortune was closed and the other spent in inspection all the time the jury was deciding whether six flags needed to pay or not.
I liked the change of pace, it’s nice to see a sillier video here and there I think!
We are doomed as a species
Clout is a hell of a disease
I’ve seen all of these happen as a ride op, thankfully the one person who climbed out of the train was an early station stoppage and not anywhere on the circuit. But long story short, whether you’re an enthusiast or just here to have your annual good time, don’t disobey rules for clout or for your entitlement.
How could I tell I was watching a "coaster college" video without a giant logo in the center of the screen blocking everything?!
The fact he did that on fucking verbolten embarasses me 💀
I love that ride
Pls make a part 2 😅
Honestly, I love the new series!
The ice cream one reminded me of a video reposted by crazy ass moments in theme park history on twitter with a guy eating chicken tenders on a coaster. How do people get these foods on the rides in the first place?
Last one made me actually gasp
In the words of Phiilip DeFranco; "don't be stupid, stupid!"
I like your more educational content a lot so please don’t substitute it with this in the long run, but I did enjoy this a lot as some additional content on channel, just please keep doing what you’ve been doing too! Love your work man, and dedication.
Thanks, this is much more of a fill in for times I can't get educational content out!
I sometimes wonder if the people who do stunts like this do so because they saw it on TV.....not realising that they get things like permission, signed waivers, paramedics, etc?
See, I don't usually ride coasters anymore not because I'm afraid I'll die because the restraints fall apart and I get flung to my death at 70mph.
I don't ride them because I am absolutely shit-terrified of being sat next to one of these morons and a) watching _them_ get deleted from existence, or b) being the miserable person who gets nailed by the crap the sneak onto the ride for these stunts. Oh, and because most of the best coasters won't let me on due to heart and spinal conditions, which is for the best.
Honestly A Contender For The Best Coaster Channel
Are you still working for Cedar Point? I was thrown for a loop with the 'when I was a ride op' comment :-) Good video!
I do still work at Cedar Point, but not as a ride op.
@@CoasterCollege Cool cool!
The fact that some people are crazy or stupid enough (probably both) to leave restraints loose is scary. When I’m on a roller coaster I make the restraints as tight as they can go for myself. I don’t want to die while having fun.
Back around 2005 I remember being on Nitro at SF Great Adventure. I always sit in the back row on most steelies. Just as the train was beginning to drop off the second hill where it makes the slight turn leading into the hammerhead, I saw this white shirt go flying. I had seen a dude a few rows up with a white t shirt over his head. When it flew past me, I didn't make the connection he had taken the shirt off and thought he had gone flying out of his seat. Scared the crap out of my but then realised it was just his shirt and I thought what a bone head. What if that went under the train and got entangled in the wheels somehow. Stupid stupid move. And not long before that, wasn't there an incident on the Coney Island Cyclone where someone's baseball cap flew off and DID get stuck in the wheels causing it to stop?
I love this series
i like this video style! its a great look into some safety things that dont involve people getting hurt or injured. i do recommend, if you have the time, to blur the faces and names of the prank channels and accounts. dont give these people any more attention, thats all they want.
Good idea!
I’ve been to Busch Gardens Williamsburg, so many times and I swear to god, the most insane GP moments happen there.
I’ve almost fell out of two RC’s from leaving the bar open, so now I just do 1/2”-1” above thighs because 6”-7” was dumb
How are you so chill about almost falling off
@@WillCR1 I don’t do it anymore, just when I was younger
As many parks as I went to in 2023 this was a common sight and a lot of it from my perspective seemed from poor management at parks or ride opps completely not caring enough about their job, got plenty of rides in some coasters where restraints weren’t checked at all before dispatch multiple times
Sometimes operators get bitched and yelled at so much they just have given up its not worth the fight. Why should ride operators care more about people's safety then the person rating a fool.
i was quite surprised when i saw the last clip
MAGNUM CATCH AND RELEASE FISHING🗣🗣🔥🔥‼️‼️
Glad someone didn’t get hit by it though.
I know you I know you I know you I know you I know you I know you I know you I know you I know you
What do you think about the XKCD chess coaster pictures?
When that guy slipped out on verbolten i was not even surprised.
OMG IM DYING 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 keep up the great work!
I was on a zamperla disco once and the bridge that crossed from the station to the vehicle was broken so we were stuck on it for a bit. Then two people decided they had waited long enough and wriggled out of their restraint
Just as strong as they are smart lol
the fact that half of these videos are from virginia.
on behalf of all virginians, we are sorry
Should’ve included that one guy who undone his belt on Tower of Terror
Also saw a clip not long ago of people eating chicken tenders on raging bull not in back row
I just learnt about the fish thing earlier today. I’ve had to deal with sauce packet messes and even a banana peel, but nothing that insane.
Whoa that guy almost flew out
At least the dude said not to do what he did in the last clip. But still, don’t be the reason Coaster College has to make a What Really Happened? episode about an otherwise safe ride
I know the person who did it and he’s a very experienced enthusiast who knows better and probably thought it lessened his culpability by prefacing it with a “what not to do” statement. In no way am I condoning his behavior - no matter what, he did what he did - but at least it isn’t quite in the same category as the other clueless people in this video.
This needs to be a series,
Awesome video, but did you forget about the chicken tendies incident that happened recently at sfg america that has recently been blowing up on tiktok? if so, then you should totally make a youtube short about it or something, yet again, you keep outdoing yourself in video content!
The editing in this is great!!!
Prime Is A Good drink but I would never drink it on a roller coaster!
I was 12 but I just wanna admit to the time I took my phone out on the lifthill of a ride my first day riding coasters. I still feel bad about it but at least I'm more educated now.
Hope they found the guy in the first clip and sent him to jail for a year or two.
I climbed out of my restraints once, but only because it was the unload station and the ride operators couldn't get the single position lap bar free on Coaster at Playland in 2017 or 2018. They actually shrugged their shoulders like they couldn't blame me. Otherwise: wrangling yourself out of a restraint is never a safe thing to do. Stay in school, kids!
Boutta go on a spinner thanks
at my home park (gröna lund) there was four idiots that took a can of energy on vilda musen (it interacts with another roller coaster almost all the time) and they threw it!
The Ice Cream did hit someone else
We need that extreme airtime..
I never noticed stuff like this in person
That horse neighing in the first clip..
The first clip is a little funny
Whyyy would you do ANY of this
Wonder if the guy with the fish has anything to do with the guy who stole a fish from a Bass Pro Shops aquarium in Florida
No but seriously. I'm glad I found this channel. I've seen videos of people taking their service dogs on certain rides at Disney, like the Haunted Mansion. Watching your videos and learning how rides work makes me sure I will NOT be doing that when I go to Disney world. I'll be fine for five minutes without my dog, my dog will be safe, and Disney allows guests with disabilities to wait outside the line for the time it would take for the line to move.
Thankfully the station has items like hoses, disinfectant, and towels to clean off the seats, just in case anyone pukes. But but for drink and ice cream vids, you the ask the ride ops could to clean the seat if you have to sit in next if you ask (nicely). The one thing they can't clean is blood that's for biohazard. Also, tell AirTime Thrills about the last clip because he seems to complain about stapling a lot, even though he's never worked as a ride operator.
The ice cream one was for a challenge
People don't go to Six Flags because they already know the rides are crappy, but people who go to Cedar Fair parks are just stupid. 🤦🏻♀️
You should do a video where people submit stupid things they’ve done on rides, I sadly have a few from when I was younger
Coaster College!! How could you possibly not see the video of teenagers eating chicken Tenders on the Raging Bull and then throwing them behind them?
Perhaps a part 2!
I'm sure ride operator was a lot safer before social media.
What hasn't cloud fishing screwed up?
I kinda thought the fish throwing video was fake when I first saw it but I guess it's real.
Totally ineffective ad for Prime.
Ride operators annoyingly do get aggressive with restraints
You forgot the chicken tendies incident at Raging Bull
Perhaps there will be a part 2
