Bolliger & Mabillard, or B&M is my favorite roller coaster manufacturer. Today, I am ranking all 65 of their roller coasters that I have ridden in the US, UK, Canada, and also one in Denmark.

Thank you for watching! This was a super fun list to make and I will try to do an RMC one soon. What manufacturers would you like me to cover after RMC?
NOTES: It turns out I did actually forget one B&M on this list. Oblivion at Alton Towers is the ride in question, I would put it at 56th had I remembered. Thank you Coaster Thunder for catching this oversight. Also, sorry that the title cards randomly stopped appearing, that was an exporting error along with the corrupted Great Adventure footage.
Vekomaaaaa
Or Maybe Mack would be cool
Please do ranking videos for Intamin, Mack Rides, Vekoma, and Premier Rides.

Happy to see Batman and Superman at SFOG get some credit 😂 I grew up at that park and haven’t been on any of the other clones, but they’re solid even 20 years later. A little shakier than they used to be, but I’ve never had a bad ride on either. They run Batman still when it’s only lightly raining, we used to ride it back to back before the summer storm rolled in, wait 15 minutes for it to pass and be first to ride again once they started running the rides again.
I’m not a big fan of hyper coasters so Goliath is my least favorite in the park, but I still ride it every time I go because it is a great ride once I get over the first drop 😂
I love this list, especially your top two which are also my top two favourite B&M coasters. of the 160 coasters I've ridden: my favourite is Steel Vengeance; my 2nd favourite Fury 325 and my third favourite is Diamondback. I even put Leviathan and Orion BEHIND all the B&M hypers I've ridden; Behemoth, Nitro, Raging Bull, Intimidator (aka Lightning Striker) and Diamondback, but none ahead of Fury 325. Thanks for posting this great list!
this is a beast of a video, mad respect for your commitment 😳 long live floater airtime
Thanks. The long videos are always fun to make, you should see the 2 hour one I did back in June. Long live floater airtime.
Great video! This was a fun list to watch! I enjoyed watching!
Great list! I’ve ridden all but ten. Time to get to Canada & England.
They turned off the trims on Raging Bull AND turned down the mid-course in October. The airtime was violent. The hill after the midcourse was similar in power to the EDH on Zippin Pippin. After years of it and Goliath fighting for the top spot in the park in my rankings, those rides shot it WELL above.
All season the ejector mid course was unbelievable
@riolaaaey9875 I agree, but in October, it was next-level
Idk what was going on but blue train had significantly less trims than the other 2, but only august-mid oct
No kidding. I rode it in October as well and I think I got one of the best rides on bull ever. It was mesmerizing
Which Goliath was it fighting against?
11:58 “First major wing coaster”
Raptor & The SWARM: Are we a joke to you ?? 💀💀
I meant first one on the list.
Edit: my bad, the text showed a correction saying “in America” but that black bar glitched it out.
@@ThemeParkAvenueFair enough also did you forget oblivion ??
@CoasterThunder Darn, I actually did forget one.
B&M is my favorite roller coaster manufacturer as well because their rides are reliable, built to last, and almost always enjoyable. Orion at Kings Island is my favorite from them.
Just finally got on Fury last week for the first time (hadn't been to Carowinds in 30 years!) and it delivered everything I wanted it to. I get the hype, and I see why enthusiasts and the GP love it so much. But I get what you're saying - RMC and Intamin tend to make way more exciting coasters, and B&M knows their lane and generally stays in it. But they are always consistent and reliable, and even the worst B&M is better than some other companies' best. You did a great job on this! (And thanks for the Alpengeist love, it's always been my favorite invert, even if we don't always agree on the weirdness of Great Bear, I have a strange soft spot for that one.)
I’ve not been on many B&M coasters, but of the ones I have been on, Oblivion at Alton Towers is still my favourite. It may be just one drop, but it’s a spectacular drop. Nemesis is also great, given how the park used height limits and compact space to enhance the ride’s theme. I dig the music of both of them too.
Kings Island dominating with 3 top 10 B&M’s.
I work as a ride operator at montu at Bgt (as well as other rides). Montu is 1 of my fave coasters
Again, they pulled off the "Rampaging through the town" idea pretty good on Raging Bull, and that's why I enjoy it to. Honestly if it had more theming it would be elite
Wasn't Galactica the first flying coaster???
Yep
B&M, yes.
Stealth CGA was the first
My top 3 Coasters-
1- Gwazi
2- Steve
3-Fury
Goliath is awesome asl, hill after hill and the helix is 😮💨
There are some great B& M coasters here in Europe. Id be intersted to see where Black Mamba, Shambhala and Oziris fit into your rankings
Great Video!!!!
Woah 65 B&Ms? That's 65 more then I have been on. Hopefully that'll change next year if I get to go to Gröna Lund and ride Monster
7:21 I thought you were speaking gibberish for a second lol 😂
So there are definitely times where the trim brakes before the 2nd drop on SheiKra make you come to a complete stop and then the train creeps forward over the drop, completely changes the pacing
My first time on Montu back in 2017 was awesome and felt the batwing more but in 2022 it was still great but the trims definitely were noticeable along with the mid course
Dominator is my favorite of the B&M Floorless Coasters
My favourite B&M is definitely Shambala, Nemesis Reborn is 2nd, then Kumba.
I had a similar experience on mako. I came out of my seat to where the restraints were down to my mid thigh
You need to visit Thorpe park and take a ride on the swarm - it’s miles better than X flight
I didn’t get the chance to ride Swarm when I went to Thorpe last summer unfortunately.
Medusa at great adventure was the original name. Then they changed it to Bizarro. Then they changed it back

I have probably been on more B&M coasters but i dont feel like making the list longer lol
Also first comment🎉
manta over leviathan and orion? bold choice.
Valid choice but Yukon is not better than levi, behemoth insanely underrated probably the best airtime of all time
My homepark is SF Great america, and I'm so lucky for that. So many good B&M's. Personally, I don't like Batman the ride very much. Way to intense for me. I'm 16, but I have never greyed out on anything except for Batman The Ride At Great america
What about Yukon Striker at Canada's Wonderland?
I haven’t been to the park since before it opened.
Nitro actually feels inconsistent probably because I live in New Jersey. Sometimes I get awesome rides while other times I just get fun or just good
After i have seen youre rmc clipp i wanted to see this one and congrats all the things i didn't like you praised wich makes you so perfect and consistance. Ok we both had the same nr1 one but fury is basicly the perfect coaster thats why it ranks fairley low in my overall list its in the 10 to 5 spot and my guess its on youre 1 to 5 one. wich yup just confirms we just difer in what we like but see the same ime in quality of the rides., we just rank it differently.
As for B&M inverts trie Katun in italy that one is really good not really youre cup of thea but you gonna like it.
The way the video started off, I thought I was going to be really upset with this list because Green Lantern is actually my favorite stand-up coaster, but there was a lot that I agreed with. I especially appreciate Gatekeeper and Leviathan being so high. People sleep on both of those rides. I also agree with Firebird being near the bottom. That's my personal least favorite.
All valid, thanks for watching!
that 5 second hill on mako gives powerful flojector airtime, as the speed hill. I think the 5 second hill is borderline weak ejector
Silver Bullet, SheiKra, Griffon, Oblivion….did you mention those? I must’ve missed them. Decent list.
Oblivion was a mistake on my part, Sheikra was on the list, I haven't done those other two. Thanks for watching!
I’m curious to see where Iron Menacy would fall on this list. It’s B & M’s newest dive coaster at Dorney Park. It’s smaller than some other dive coasters. But it’s fun. Shame you couldn’t ride it this year to put it on the list.
Maybe I’ll get on it some day. I think it definitely looks like a fun ride.
Iron Menace
So you missed Griffon and oblivion?
@ I actually have been on Oblivion, that one was a genuine mistake on my part. Griffon was closed.
I'm surprised to see Mako so high. I think that trim while going up the hill feels so odd, and the brake run just kills the rest of the ride IMO.
I’ve actually always really liked the second half. Even disregarding that, the 5 second hill gave me such a great experience this year that it shot even higher in my ranking than it used to be.
Here's mine:
1. Fury 325
2. Goliath (SFOG)
3. Orion
4. Mako
5. Hulk
6. Batman the ride (SFOG)
7. Diamondback
8. Candymonium
9. Banshee
10. Nitro
11. Afterburn
12. Kraken
13. Thunderbird
14. Wild Eagle
15. Superman Ultimate Flight (SFOG)
16. Intimidator
17. Gatekeeper
18. Valravn
19. Le Vampire
20. Batman (SFGAD)
21. Goliath (La Ronde)
22. Raptor
23. GA Scorcher
24. Rougarou
25. Vortex
You’ve never ridden millennium force?
@@thatshot9743millennium force isn’t a B&M
@@thatshot9743 Millie would place at 2 if it was a B&M
Fury is the greatest
@@thatshot9743fury is still better
I advocate the complete and total dismantling of B&M coasters.
People act like smoothness is an innovation that lends itself to a ride being awesome. Reality? Roughness at points and alamming kn brakes adds to intensity.
There are limits to this. Son of Beast for example.
And the fact that so few od these coasters invert....
Montu is definitely the best B&M invert
Where is Silver Bullet & Emperor?
He literally said “if you don’t hear one that means I didn’t ride it yet”
Penguin trek would be behind phoenix rising.
I do not think Candymonium is good. I didn’t experience any airtime and it’s certainly not a better hyper than nitro
Mako!!!
Great Bear is not that bad 😭
th reason apollo is the weakest of the hypers is bc it was da first b&m hyper
Best B&M:
Diamondback. No contest. No debate.
