1990

"Disaster Transport, It may get you out of this world, But it may not get you back, New this summer at Cedar Point." _Can you read me...?_

I like the song that played at points of this commercial, as it almost sounds like the theme to “Shining Time Station”.

Defunctland sent me here.

This makes the ride look super extravagant!!But how are those people in space and not suffocating?

For me, Disaster Transport, Space Spiral and Demon Drop were the things I looked forward to seeing in the front of the park. I visited CP most often as a kid in the 80's and 90's.

It's a shame that they took it down. If you guys ever feel like reliving a similar experience to the Space Spiral, you're welcome to visit Montreal's amusement park La Ronde and its still standing observation tower called "La Spirale". It dates back to 1967 and it seems to be the same exact model as the one you had in Cedar Point.

It lives now only in our memories!!

Pls make more of these cedar point missed ride videos you really good at it

its weird leaving the park at night with out the sounds of the cables hitting the tower. it just doesn't feel the same anymore

Just to let you know, I shared this with a fan group page on Facebook called "Remembering Disaster Transport and Space Spiral at Cedar Point." I hope you don't mind. If you do, just let me know. I gave you credit for posting this. PS: Where did you find the audio and pictures? I can imagine that they're extremely rare.

This reminded me of the Astroneedle at the now defunct Astroworld in Houston.

Visited Ceder Point every summer in mid and late 70's when my dad competed at the National Pistol Championships at Camp Perry. Always had to take a day to spend at Ceder Point. Space Spiral and Fun House were two of my favorites.

If only Space Spiral was relocated to Dorney Park like Demon Drop

The spiral could've stayed gatekeeper wouldn't of interfered with it

Nice touch with what I believe to be the music from Apollo 13

gonna miss space spiral but, happy for gatekeeper!

this is amazing, thumbs up! R.I.P.

They murdered it!!! :-/ :'(

Cedar will never have another observation ride

What a nice tribute to this great ride, still can't believe they did not save the cabin. They saved the trains from Disaster Transport.

I cried too :(

Beautiful job.

I only ever got to ride this thing once because it was always closed but I'm happy I had the chance. Same for DT. I've ridden that multiple times as well. And Also the Paddle boat ride too, I got to ride that about 6-7 years ago when I was younger. I'm only 16 but I've had the joy of ridding all of these things. Obviously sad to see them go but as a coaster enthusiast im excited for the future.

too sad

i almost cryd when i saw this ):

it was an amazing time in cedar point history and I love that you used the Apollo 13 theme music

Love the Apollo 13 music. Great Video!

I cried just about as much as I do when I watch Titanic. And thats ALOT :'(

So sad :( Now Only Memories:(

will miss you Space spiral.all thanks to that dumb Gatekeeper.thumbs up for Space spiral :)

Wow that was a really great job. I was last at CP in August of 2011 and what a fortunate visit that was. I was able to ride the Space Spiral, Paddlewheel Excurion, Wildcat, and DT for the last time. I also got on ride videos of the SS and Paddlewheel Excursion rides on my RUclips channel. It saddens me to see all these classic family rides being relegated to history. Things like this make me appreciate the Sky Tower at SeaWorld Orlando and the Island in the Sky at LegoLand Florida even more.

will miss you space spiral:(I wish it was still there.most of you guys will miss space spiral.I like space spiral better than windseeker.I opened another window to listen to memory with the tribute.

The minnesota State Fair has this ride The same Willie Buhler Space Tower called The Space Tower built the same year as the spiral the same cabin that revolves. I think the State Fair will keep it going for a long time hopely another 50 years.

I can't believe i cried to! sometimes I really dislike change....

Thanks Guys! You all made me *CRY*! Loved the video very much so! It was my baby no matter what anyone says, working on it for 1 1/2 years brought me great joy and so much more to my life. Thanks for making the video! I love it very much, looking through the floor is awesome to see, use to do that alot!

Thank you flymd11 for this awesome tribute to the Cedar Point Space Spiral!! It will be surely missed. A true family-fun icon ride! So many great memories of SS. Even driving to CP (east) on State Route 2, you could always see the SS from the Edison Bridge over Sandusky Bay, and even at other spots from Route 2.

Thanks for this. I was an employee this summer and I was lucky to get the last ride ever on spiral. I will miss it. Yeah, I agree that the park should have done a "Last Ride" for Spiral. Just like they did for Paddlewheel and for DT.

Thanks for the memories. Loved the needle!

Great job on this video! I was a big fan of Space Spiral and rode it quite a bit, ever since I was a little kid. I'm going to miss those wonderful views of the park. Thanks for taking the time to put this together.

Very very good tribute. I was lucky enough to take my last ride in june before everything started coming down. It is very touching. Hopefully part of it will remain in the ride graveyard during halloweekends.

i cried... :'(

Good jobs guys. I hope youtube doesn't remove the music for their canned music. Hopefully they at least link to the stores like they usually do to keep it because it was a nice selection. Thanx for sharing. It was informative.

Great video and great memories! Thanks!

I sure am going to miss the cables banging up against the tower as I walk by that beast at night. Space Spiral was one of a kind. Too bad the location didn't give the ride justice. The merchandise and games building is such an eyesore from the top of SS. But I wish they would have kept the top tier of the cabin open to the public too but we all slowly watched it rot away and become spider infested over the years. RIP Space.

So many sounds missing so quickly. I have a micro-cassette recording of Wild Cat sounds because it was right outside my room as I was recording my dreams one morning and the sounds of bursts of up to four person screams and wheels and rails. Demon Drop is gone, That lift clank of Disaster Transport was one of a kind. And that sound at the end of the video which made me think of all this. Demon Drop had probably the most memorable sounds.

Great video and all of what you said is all true about how the park didnt say goodbye to the ride. You did really good with this, its a very touching video. RIP Space Spiral 1964-2012

Thank you for postings this!

Nice video. The tribute it deserved.

Very touching.
