Still easily my favourite ride at Oakwood. First got on it when I was 7 back in 2012, absolutely loved it. Got on it again the other day, still as amazing as I remembered it.
Hello again Scott It's good to see that there looking after megafobia and thanks to you highlighting that the ride is still as good as it was before Thanks for the video Scott
I noticed the nonstop screams of laughter on the video of this coaster that was released a few days ago and now I can clearly see why. The changes in profiling look like they've added incredible 'bounce'. This ride looks super fun!
Was on it yesterday, an it’s great. It has a special place in my heart due to it being local. Even if it’s not local to you, I highly recommend trying it!
I rode it a few times in the late 90s but haven't been back to Wales since. I was wondering what state it might be in at this point and am so glad to see that it seems to be running so well with the refurb. I hope I can get back there to ride it again.
Yeah, they’ve re-profiled the first drop making it steeper, made the hill that follows it higher and added the double down, then the double up. All new track is lighter in colour.
Update from Parque Warner, Scott: we've been here since park opening at 12 and 7 hours later Gotham City Escape is CLOSED! All day! It's the crazy heat, 38 degrees now at 7pm no announcements made and the gates are closed!! Gutted!
@@yourexperienceguide I just met Shawn and Charlotte earlier. The queue opened at 7:30ish and I saw that they got into the pre-show building but the ride has since gone down again. My boyfriend and I are almost to the last switchback so we're going to wait it out. As long as it takes! 🥵 At least we have some shade.

Used to think this Megafobia would make a great RMC. But now after the retrack, I changed my mind, this 100% should stay a wooden coaster!
Rmc was spotted at the park today 🫣

Thank you for watching and commenting
I rode its sister (Rampage at Alabama Adventure) and it was awesome. Love CCI
awesome woodie that, it's no Troy though but it's not far off that top spot.
Better than Troy though 👀
That looks as good as gets in terms of a wooden uk coaster
I’d say it’s our best now
Went on it with my mates once for a trip very fun but incredibly bumpy and rickety, the thrill was amazing though.
Looks like Wales is a coaster destination again.
Absolutely
Open now? It was closed in April ( as was half the park) but we still enjoyed the few rides that were open
Opened two weeks ago 😀
been on it today, I loved it
I nearly died (on the inside)
Is it intense?
I love this ride took me 10+ yrs to get courage but once i did we spent hours on it in 1 day 😂🤣😅
Would you say this ranks above Wickerman?
Definitely
the extra little hop is new at 0:57, what else has changed in profiling?
There's a new double-up after the turnaround after the new double-down, I think they might have re-profiled the drop a little as well .
Yeah, they’ve re-profiled the first drop making it steeper, made the hill that follows it higher and added the double down, then the double up.
All new track is lighter in colour.
@@yourexperienceguide the track is lighter because it is new wood

Poor! I read that TPW have had similar issues.

@@AudreyMealiff I really hope you’ve both got on it 🤞🏼
@@yourexperienceguide STILL in the queue!
@@AudreyMealiff Wow! This is like the frustrations we had in June
Is it better than wickerman
Is this coaster as good as Tonnerre 2 Zeus?
Much better
Noticed they replaced the Dodgey part of the track where it was swaying thanks god it was an accident waiting to happen
Wooden coasters are designed to move
i love megafobia so much
Excellent coaster
Oak wood is the beat
I went he today with my school in megafobia
Hope you enjoyed it
Hey I also went lol, which school did you go with?
same my school was fitzalan
