    Flashback was awful on the ears physically. If someone were to ride it often enough, they'd get mistaken for a boxer/fighter because they'd have cauliflower ears. The riders heads would get rocked side to side and the harness padding was too firm. All these years later I still say: F that ride! 😂😂😂

    This is missing the monorail through the Lion Country Safari portion that was behind the mountain.

      I struggled to pick 10 rides, maybe I will have to do a follow up!

    The park of now is nowhere near as good as it was in the seventies. The reel and the wild mouse removed and replaced with , well nothing. Not worth the entrance money just my opinion.

      The 70’s, 80’s and 90’s was a time when the Pleasure Beach seemed to have a limitless ambition to install new and spectacular attractions. I understand the decline of the British seaside resort, but that ambition has disappeared like your bag of chips when a seagull swoops down!

    I used to tell my friends about a haunted house at Blackpool Pleasure Beach where you sat at a dining room table at the end that spun and gargoyles spat water at you, they thought I'd dreamt it. Your video just made my day!!!!!!

    I was born and raised about an hour and a half from Cedar Point, and started going there in 1966. I remember all of these rides. My brother and I tried to break the consecutive times riding on the Rotor Room without getting off. LOL Loved Cedar Point and still do. If you need any additional information about any these, let me know.

      Wow! You must have seen so much change over the years. Cedar Point has a lot of historical information, but there is still a lot lost to time. That’s part of the fun for me, uncovering the information to make my videos.

    Love these old Theme Park coasters and rides. I am 70 years young and have fond memories of riding coasters that were built back in the 20's and 30's here in Ohio.

      I love historical rides too. I’m always amazed at how long some operate for and wish we had saved some more of our older classic coasters.

    Great video. So many memories. Started visiting in about 86 aged 4 so can recall almost all of these.
