Did you know that the Great American Scream Machine operated with two trains comprised of four cars with three benches until the 2018 season when the the trains were replaced with those from the Georgia Cyclone when it was converted to the Twister Cyclone?
Six Flags Over Georgia is located near Atlanta in Austell, Georgia.

The retrack made this ride 100x better
And smoother.
when did they retrack it?
Glad they decided to do that…I remember that last part with the bunny hills being extremely rough inside the valleys.
@@bigstanky2037 before last season
Exactly. I lived in ATL back in 2016 and would go there every weekend. I stopped riding after a while cause of that brutal stop at the end and almost flying out my seat on that second drop. Looks like they slowed it down a bit along with the retread.
I never will understand the hate for this ride. I rode it before and after the retrack and I always enjoyed it a lot!
The hate was due to it being extremely rough. It used the old Georgia Cyclone trains, which caused the extreme roughness
I almost fell out of it so that’s y I hate this one :)
@@pyrolord2k977unless you are missing your legs I don’t believe you.
@@williamshort3620 i was extremely little at the time, i’m now much older and i actually think this coaster is extremely underrated lol
Love the track and those sounds! Nothing sounds like a good wooden coaster.
arrow dynamics chainlift
One of the most underrated airtime monsters out there, hands down.
Is the airtime in the room with us?
@@jaredandell126 Um
Yes, it is. If you're gonna tell me you've ridden this and there isn't any airtime, one of those statements is gonna be a lie.
@@jasonhook3884 do you also typically find yourself experiencing airtime on monorails, too?
A classic! I've ridden this coaster dozens of times. A great bit of fun. Thanks.
I still remember elementary school "show and tell" back in the 1970's a girl showed a picture of the scream machine and talked about how it was the fastest roller coaster in the world going 57 miles an hour.
What a classic. Even when it was rough this was one of my favorites. I guess I just love good old fashioned woodies
And did they actually make the final brake run not pulverizing anymore!? I'll miss that a bit but I'm glad it'll be more comfortable now!
Update: They indeed improved the final brake run! No more slamming to a complete stop!
Every time I see this name, I always think of the defunct Arrow Dynamics coaster at Six Flags Great Adventure 😭
Miss that ride so much, what an amazing time
Wish Great Adventure still kept GASM and Rolling Thunder!
Rode this July 3rd 2023. Still rough as could be, but, still a fantastic ride.
this was my favorite ride as a kid, when i was too scared to ride anything else. i couldn't ride it as much as i had wanted to because i couldn't ride without a parent, and the scream machine is infamous for messing up your back once you reach a certain age.
the first time i rode it i was so scared that i couldn't scream at all. i let out a little noise at the scariest part and from then on the scream machine became the only thing i wanted to ride. i haven't been back to six flags since, but i would love to pay the scream machine another visit.
The scream machine is better than ever with the retrack they did a few years ago!
Love this ride ! Rumble and all ❤ marathoned this back to back 5 times
Gonna be honest here…my fav ride in the world and I’m 44 and rode it as soon as I was big enough…used to have season passes every year….rode it a million times…and I rode it yesterday …I saw no difference except the brakes. To me it was the same as always and just as good and I actually forgot just how good it is…even though I knew it’s my fav coaster. I just didn’t see a difference but at the same time…I didn’t want it different. I’m sure I missed a small detail like maybe I came out of my seat more back in the day….but either way…it felt just as rough but I love it that way. Goliath for instance is a good one…but too damn smooth.
I have ridden this ride since it first came out. Forward backwards it was always fun to me.
SFOG certainly looks like an amazing theme park, excellent coasters
It’s the closest theme park to my house and I love going there
@@JimmyNeutron1029 Nice, sfne is my local park. Six flags park's are excellent. Hope you are enjoying Georgia
The coasters are probably fun, but monster mansion is the highlight no doubt
@@TackyFlamingoidk goliath is really good
@@hello5513also twisted cyclone is great
I remember as a kid, getting the last row and making sure my lap bar wasn't too tight. Not the smartest way to ride but sure made for some fun airtime.
So glad they retracted this ride, one of my favorites as a kid. Glad I can ride it again now. Rose it with my son about 4 years ago and I swear I have back pain to this day from that ride. I swore never to go on it again unless they redid the tracks. I was screaming alright…in pain as I felt my back cracking.
It hurt my back, last time I rode that scream machine. My back hurt for days after riding it.
This and Screamin' Eagle in St. Louis are tied at 2nd for my favorite wooden coasters. Had I never ridden the Beast, they would be first !
Night rides on this is soooo good 🤩
So true.
I rode it in 1973, when it was brand new! It was scary back then. I was 11 years old. It was rough to me.
I rode it again back in 2000. When the coaster was much older, and I was 39. After riding it, my back hurt for days!!! I can tell you that coaster had gotten rougher over the years!
I’m very serious.
I hope that it’s smoother now.
it isnt
@@flatleviit is
@Thethirdgeneration that's not true i rode it in 2023 MAN THAT HURTS
@@BLOOD_DEAD_USER well, that doesn’t surprise me. So, they’re lying to everyone then, right?
I remember riding TGASM when it was brand new, I think it "invented" the riders holding their arms UP the entire ride. The last time I rode was probably 20 years or so ago and it was a rougher and slower ride due to the worn (?) "square" wheels on it. Still is a classic coaster
Oh and I see that the "back up" wooden control levers have been removed
Looks cool I would ride it
Very rough but its super fun. Wouldn't be a bad first rollercoaster for a younger kid
I remember back in the day they ran it backwards for a season, and it was incredible. It just felt like you were gonna die.
F in chat for the final brake run tho. 25-0 in .2 seconds
That was the greatest season ever. My friend and I rode it backwards at least 50 times.
Bro everyone HATES this ride. And I’m like WHY it’s so fun! Plus with the old Cyclone cars you get that extra airtime (sit in the back for best ride experience) AND how to beat the break run. PUT YOUR HANDS ON THR YELLOW/ORANGE LAP BAR AND FORCE YOURSELF INTO THE BACK OF YOUR SEAT WHEN GOING OVER THE LAST HILL AND YOU WILL FEEL LITTLE TO NO EFFECTS OF BREAKS :)
Underrated ride :)
I'm pretty sure it doesn't use the old cyclone trains anymore and they also retracked it and fixed the brake
Cant wait to ride this again in the fall... nice cool weather. Right now, Six Flags Over Georgia is only bare able an hour or so at a time lol 😂
Dang, that retrack is SMOOTH! I loved the old one that would beat you up lol, but this looks SUPER FUN!!!
Just came from there yesterday, I noticed no such difference lol. It still beats you up and is still pretty rough. Don't know where this talk of a re track came from but if it is true it didn't do much. The most noticeable difference is a slower brake at the end compared to the old fast stop. But even yesterday when I went it's not as smooth in the video. Instead, you get like 90% of a break then a slow train move to the station around the corner where you finish breaking.
@@olson_media Dang, that sucks.
I'm so ready to ride this next weekend. I rode it a few years ago and thought I broke my neck at the end 😂
I'm 54 now but my mom took us there when i was 5 or 6, my very first roller-coaster and then I was hooked. Now i live in Allentown Pennsylvania and I have Dorney Park to go to.
Can't believe they got rid of the insane brakes at the end...
Ik I remember hitting my head so hard I almost cried
Wow, in all my years as a Kid we had Season Passes... This was one of my favorite rides.... But as the years went by Six Flags became so crowded it was no longer fun. Used to wait an hour to ride this coaster... Last time I went was 2002 and it was miserable, all day just a few rides... When you gotta wait over an Hour for the Monster Plantation (Mansion now) it was not fun. How was it that no one was in line as your train came into the station? What? I never saw that in all my years.... It would be worth the price of admission to have that experience! Have not been since 2003 but still think this is one of the best Wooden Coasters I have ever been on! I like the rougher side to wooden coasters! But I'm a Wooden Coaster Enthusiast!
My first ever roller coaster. Rode it 40 years ago.
😮😮😮that retract is amazing 😍 I know this my home park and it was shaking hard,you could see it in videos. Now you can't excellent job sixflags over ga but we got fun spot now gotta get right cause that RMC fun spot has is top tier best coaster in America
Arieforce looks incredible, but nowhere near the best in america
@@WCfanboy I guess you haven't rode it, and you must really not be watching reaction videos cause they saying it not just me
@@mobetterent.gamerzunited2529 it’s great but unthemed, not long, and doesn’t nearly have the pacing of other top tier coasters, though it’s still great
@@WCfanboy yes it is
@@WCfanboy it literally has the best pacing of any coaster I’ve been on. And that included iron gwazi
Aww, the name of this video makes me miss the GASM from Six Flags Great Adventure. RIP!
I wonder if I was sold for scrap or opened in a third world country?
Nice and smooth
Can u imagine what RMC could do with this layout it might be the greatest rollercoaster of all time!
This is such a pretty coaster and I really wanted to like it. Sadly, I found it rough and "Rampy" The airtime hills were devoid of airtime. Hopefully the re-track has fixed the roughness and will also help with the speed. It seemed to drag through the course.
When they put the trains from the Georgia Cyclone on this ride it was the end of the airtime. The original trains had the lap bars that allowed you to float out of your seat.
This was the first roller coaster I ever been on I cried
Oh thank God they changed it at 2:23. It used to slam on brakes right there and would almost kill you
Remember riding this in the early 2000s. Rough ride then 😅
Glad to see they fixed that last brake, that always gave me a throbbing headache.
Historic Philadelphia Toboggan Company coaster. Needs refurbishing to last another 50 years.
Airtime beast
This Roller Coasters Is My Favorite Ride
Underrated Wooden Coasters That’ll Been
Is Actually Not That’s Bad
Although its rough, its the ride that will give you a feel for the goliath if your scared of it.
nooo they redid it :( i loved the subtle whiplash this ride gave me
Did they redo the breaks at the end??
Rmc we need yall over here!
Bro, last time I wrote it, it felt like I had a concussion
Beautiful ride
Unfortunately too rough .. love how long it’s beeen out but I think it’s time for RMC to step in ..
My GOD......if RMC got their hands on this thing....its over.
This coaster lost its cache and it’s time for it to be salvaged. This can only be done as an RMC‼️🤓👍🏾✨🎢🎢🎢🎢🎢🎢🎢🎢🎢🎢
They already have an rmc
Beautiful coaster, but looks like the track lights are not on the handrails anymore? Why is it that this is disappearing from so many great coasters? Nights rides are much better in my opinion with the motion track lights. Recently noticed Swamp Fox, Judge Roy Scream, Screamin’ Eagle and now Scream Machine, that’s too bad.
Is at least the break run isn't rough anymore
The great American scream machine in NJ was a steel coaster
I wish they'll make this a hybrid
I literally passed out on this im being so fr
this track is so bumpy and painful lol
I thought this was the one that used to be at great adventure
New brake run haha
I noticed the brakes dont hit instantly anymore.
Huh?
I’ve heard my entire 49 years how amazing and fun and scary this ride is. I’ve lived on GA all my life and been to Six Flags here three times (each time against my will, once when I was 9, again at age 17 and again in my mid-20s) and hated it as much as I hated DisneyWorld as an 8 year old).
I despise rides such as these. They don’t scare me. They’re either boring or make me sick. No inbetween.
Seeing this POV video I was expecting to see or feel…..something….anything…anything at all.
And…..people wait in line in summer heat after paying exorbitant amounts of money for tickets and food and drink…in line for an hour or more….and it’s three minutes long?!?!?!???!?!??
Hahahaha! Wow! Suckers. 🙄
That's why you buy a premium pass to skip the lines, silly.
My complaint is my hips don't fit until the first drop😂
Is those new wood pieces between the rails the catwalks?
iv road this it was my first roller coster it is fun a rough
i said on it why we going so high
People kept saying this ride has some airtime, but i got no airtime from it because my restrain was too low… anybody know how to get better airtime with those restrains? (I was sitting in the 2nd to back seat btw)
Mid train is usually where I find the best floater but This doesn’t include GCI’s new B&M’s,or RMC’s every seat feels the same also same with B&M hyper’s,I’m talking old school woodies back isn’t bad either but mid train is best on MF for the big camel back shhhh people say it’s forceless 🤫
It's the trains. They aren't the native trains to the coaster. The trains on there now are from the old Georgia Cyclone which required the tighter fitting lap bars. The old trains had a lap bar that did actually come down on your legs and allowed you to float out of your seat.
I remember being just tall enough to ride this back in the early 2000s and feeling like I was going to fly out of my seat and die every time I rode
Fix that description type BOI
lol 😂😂
Suave, eu iria. (ou não) rs
Die wohl langweiligste Bahn aller zeiten
They need to get rid coaster. My back hurts just looking at the video 🤣
Great americam SLEEP machine 😅😅😅
