    When I was a kid that final drop seemed like we were falling off a skyscraper. Now seeing it, I get bigger splashes in my bathtub.

    It’s adorable listening to the kids conversation on the ride. Clearest video - felt like I was in the boat with you. Thanks.
    Just before the big drop, I remember those saw mill workers moving - machines running. Last time I rode this was more than 10 years ago.

    Weird to see an Arrow log flume with a concrete trough. This park has tons of Arrow goodness. It's like it hasn't been updated since the 80s, ha.

    Thank you for posting/sharing your video of The Desperado plunge. My family and I visited Lake George NY, back during the Summer of 1980. At that time, the park was known as Storytown USA. Also during that period. The Desperado Plunge was the main attraction! The lines were very long! But worth it! I am so happy the ride is still going strong. It has earned it’s place in Lake George Amusement Park History. The ride is a perfect fit for the park. Again, thank you for sharing your excellent video!

    I rode this every year with my dad. My family's been going to the Great Escape since LONG before it was bought and went all "commercial" (downhill). It's sad to see what's become of it. Faded, worn, and the mill workers at the end don't even move anymore. Who buys a place like this and just lets it go to shit? 🙁

    • @RelaxingReality
      @RelaxingReality  Před 2 lety +1

      This ride has been updated more recently with the mill workers working. But I agree, it’s pretty worn down. You can check it out in a video I filmed last summer here: czcams.com/video/-UKS3VaqkFc/video.html

    I remember riding this when I was a kid. I use to love this ride. I look at this water and think " have they been filtering the water or been cleaning the floom that the boat rides in. Look at the blue sides they are disgusting. The ride needs some TLC sad to see that. Wish they would take more care of it.

      Before you go up the first lift, there is a holding area off to your right where all the water for the ride is stored. 🙂

    Flume rides are fun, but there's nothing nice to look at on the way on this one. Get 'em on. Get 'em in. Get 'em wet. The Pittsburgh Plunge at Kennywood Park is much better. Shorter but better.

    Omg the nightmare logo and all the theming are still up. How lazy are they? By the way, it used to be just a large pool of water there.

      Crow Migration Nightmare is used for a haunted house during fright fest, while the other half is a maintenance shop. The other stuff surrounding it is theming.
