    Regarding Steel Vengeance, I love the name. Without the backstory, I always thought of it as Mean Streak coming back with a vengeance.

      “They’ve returned with a menacing and twisted machine so big and brazen, the likes of it have never been seen. The tallest of its kind. The fastest speeds. The wildest maneuvers every attempted. Upside down, inside out, sideways, slantways, over and over and over. They’re back and they’re here with a Steel Vengeance. Frontier Town. Cedar Point. 2018.” Gives me chills every time I swear

    Something that I learned last year was that there is actually no such thing as a "Gwazi" in African folklore. Busch Gardens themselves admitted during an interview after the first announcement of Iron Gwazi, that they made that name up for the ride theme back for the original GCI dueling wood coaster form.

    Let's make a new law. You can only use an existing ride name if it's a clone of that ride. So Batman clones are OK as long as they have the same layout as the one at Great America. All subsequent Goliaths have to be changed. Subsequent Supermans, Jokers and Wonder Women have to change. One of The Mummy rides has to change. Little Dippers across the US. Cyclones. Etc.

    I’m a fan of the literalness of “The Big One” given it is still the tallest in the UK and, likely will stay that way for a while. It probably elicited the same form of shocked reaction from park goers on it’s opening year that Magnum did for Cedar Point. You’re preparing yourself to tackle something far bigger than anything seen before this side of the Atlantic, and that name stands proud. Just my thoughts.

    I think the best/worst part about Six Flags' obsession with calling rides Goliath is that, for 2/3 of them, not only is it not the tallest coaster at the park now, but it wasn't even the tallest when it opened. Of the 6, the only ones that were are the two B&M hypers. Magic Mountain's is smaller than Superman, and New England's is smaller than their Superman, Great America's is shorter than Raging Bull, and Fiesta Texas' is shorter than all but one of their extreme coasters.

There was one line where he said that he looks forward to it being used on predator at Darien Lake. Rather than an RMC, Six Flags actually forked up the money to do some steel retracking to Predator.

  • @RApollos107
    @RApollos107 3 года назад +4

    If part of your reasoning for putting Iron Gwazi on this list is cause they "threw Iron on it as if they were a Six Flags Park" then why is a literal coaster that they slapped Iron on the front of at a Six Flags park not on this list? You know, Iron Rattler. And yes the Crocodile theme doesn't fit Gwazi, but it's clear and obvious they kept the Gwazi part of the name as a homage to it's predecessor.

    "The Bobs" bit actually comes from the legendary Bobs roller coasters that terrorized folk at Chicago's Riverview Park. A P&C classic that had a reputation as one of the most intense rides ever.
    Raging Wolf Bobs was based on the original Bobs as well, if memory serves.

    The Tickler and it's creepy face are a tribute to Coney Islands past - The tickler was a roller coaster that opperated at the origional l
    Luna Park in 1906 that was a predecessor to the Virginia Reel and the face, well that creepy thing was actually the logo for Steeplechase park which once stood where that part of Luna park stands today, they liked their creepy logos back then, the now defunct Rockaways Playland had an even creepier looking one , but the name and logo only work if you know obscure history, I would have thought there would have been a big sign in front of the ride that explained it all since they seem to be very much into the history of Coney

There actually might be quite a few names like that, especially when you add in family fun centers and the like - maybe more than 25. For example, CJ Barrymore's has 2 coasters: Spinning Coaster (an SBF Spinner) and Loop Roller Coaster (a Pinfari Zyklon). The most laughable thing about Loop Roller Coaster is that THIS was the winner of a Facebook naming contest! 🤣
