    Flambards have just released a statement that this ride along with a few others will be closed down this year.... Sounds like the beginning of the end for Flambards.
    Massive shame, I remember going there when I was on my hols as a kid and absolutely loving it. The Victorian village and Britain In the Blitz museums are amazing.

    Fun fact - this used to be a coaster called "Nightmare" at a themepark in Canada called Boblo Island. The whole thing was inside a building and it was very dark with cool lights etc. This was over 30 years ago.

    i nearly went on this back in 2016 or so and i was terrified, looking back on it, the ride looks tame as anything but now i really want to go on rides such as the smiler and all of the ones at thorpe lmao

    Tip for the final trim brakes if you push on the front of the car it makes it a lot less sharp. Love this ride definitely a highlight at the park. The environment around the coaster is quite fitting for the ride track. Have many fab memories of this ride and continue to ride it to this day

    This brings back so many memories. My nan and grandad use to live not far from the theme park When I was a kid. Me and my sisters would always go to my nan and granddad's for a week in the summer holidays. And they always took us here. This rollercoaster was our favourite we would go on it 10 to 15 times.

    It's even the same layout as Vol'd'icare in Parc Asterix. Didn't knew there's more than one version of the Hornet Zierer.

    • @drdewott9154
      @drdewott9154 Před 2 lety +1

      Lol yeah. And to make things more interesting, both this and Vol d icare are clones of an entirely different ride. An old coaster from Tivoli Gardens called Kometen, later Slangen. That one was mirrored compared to these, built on top of a building and the parks pathways, and used 2 across seating rather than the inline seating on the Hornets.
      The ride opened there in 1989 but was taken down in 2003 to make way for the B&M floorless Dæmonen. Today the original still stands at a local entertainment centre called DippieDoe in the Netherlands, where it runs noticably slower than originally. About the same pace as the 2 Hornets. Strange ngl. I assume it must come down to something like using different wheels with more friction.
