Did Sally Dark Rides build that pirate ride? That was interesting to say the least.
Would want to meet u one day....U inspire me to want to go to other amusement parks in the world besides magic mountain
I hope your home city is okay 😢
Maybe Six Flags really WILL be a premium experience... It's great to see things taking a turn for the better!
Absolutely! All those "Six Flags is dying" clickbait videos must be shaking in their boots right now!
Runaway Mine Train has such a long train that the ride intensity varies a lot. The last car gets some surprising airtime when it's yanked over that last hill.
new texas giant is so underrated
Literally
@@xsRobxbro forgot great escape
@@neoporshe455 i agree i havent been to great escape, this park so i spoke out of turn. either way sfot is very frustrating.
Agreed, I have it over Twisted Timbers actually
@@xsRobxsix flags Saint Louis
The weather has been insane here in Texas. Glad you had a good time!!
Six flags over Texas made an awesome investment with the misters
You are the Best roller coaster guide on youtube!! I love them All, still many I need to visit and ride! But good reviews, great camera work for POV. Nice!!!
I appreciate that a lot!
You are definitely right. I love how he does POVs and reactions to all the rides. Electric energy
Hey at least you got the park so it was worth it
Titan does usually feel worse than the others in the summer because of it's location. It's by the parking lot and parts of it are over the pavement, so all that extra heat just sits there and makes it hellish lol.
Pirates of Spelunker Cave History Deep-Dive:
Opened in Year 2 of the park as Spelunker Cave (with the little alien looking things as the main characters). Ran till about the mid-90s when it got re-themed to Yosemite Sam panning for gold. Ride was flooded out and was SBNO for a couple of years until they re-themed again to Pirates.
So, I was sort of right!
Pirates of Spelunker has been open a long time. My mom talked about it being one of her favorites as a kid. It used to be cave of the Spelunkers, then For a long time it was Loony Tunes themed. Opened this year after a flood and a refurbishment.
You missed my two favorite coasters at SFOT. Runaway Mountain. It’s an indoor crazy mouse style coaster. Also Batman. Your feet hang. There’s Inversions and loops. It’s really quick too.
Runaway Mountain is nothing like a crazy mouse. It's actually similar to an S.D.C Hurricane coaster, even though it was built by Premier Rides. It is also the first ride they ever built and it is the only one like it that they ever built.
Ikr everyone raves about rides from other parks but dude the giant is legit a great ride the airtime is great
MrFreeze is my second favorite coaster favorite off all time it’s very underrated along with new Texas Giant
It doesn't even make my top 50 but glad you like it!
@@Thingamajig-tm7fhyeah I only have around 50 credits 😭
Mrfreeze and new Texas giant is literally everybody’s favorites😂
New Texas Giant Is In My Top 30 I Love It
This reminds me of Taylor from Coaster Studios how he missed his flight and went to SFOT😂. You also know a POV is good when you can feel the airtime through the screen
I Love that coaster. Screamer was the first large scale coaster Ive ever rode and i was like 7. Ive rode it so many times when it was here in Cali. Thanks to this I'm a huge coaster nerd now lol.
Interesting and cool vid. It was cool that you met other rollercoaster enthusiasts.
Dude, I was cracking up when you were on TG and saying how hot the tunnels were!!! Also cracked up when you said the jenky coaster felt like it was gonna derail...hilarious
Hahah thanks for watching!
the intro is iconic
Glad to see they’re doing both ways on Mr freeze I remember the one time I went as a kid they had it like that. Going backwards makes that last spike so much better but I like having the option.
So fun seeing the cars shake and bob in front of you on the Screamer. It seems to me like a CCI, with its pace and a little bit of its jank. It seems to hold its speed fairly well like most CCIs.
My old home park. Loved this place.
Thanks, Marc. Great commentary!
Thanks!!
I was there today actually and I'm heading back tomorrow! Titanic and NTG are standouts to me (Mr Freeze too but I had no chance to get over there). It was just too crowded on Saturday and it wound up raining so that didn't help. Tomorrow will be sunny! Time to have more fun! XD
Great video! Six Flags over Texas looks like it has a good collection of coasters. I liked the new water coaster. Prairie Screemer I thought it's supports were different how they were super wide so they could support all the different track as it kept going around in an oval. It definitely looked fun!
Thank you!
@@CoasterDash You're welcome!
10:00 Best in the back car of the train, most air time then since you're pulled over the crest!
Prairie Screamer reminds me of a bigger Schwarzkopf Wildcat. Those were fun little rides. Miss the one at CP
You’d think a major metro area like Dallas/Ft Worth would have a few more huge modern coasters. Looks like it’s a few big ones away from being something amazing.
Slow days tend to have better ride ops at Over Georgia as well. For a park that has notorious ride ops, that's really saying something. People tend to work better when they are less stressed, and busy days can be very stressful on the operators, especially if they aren't trained well.
Just a few months ago you we’re celebrating 15k subs, you need to start planning for 25k! It’s coming! Pre-congratulations!
Thanks for the continued support 😄
25:21 They’ve definitely gotten better at Over Georgia, well at least all the coasters are open pretty much every time, operations on each coaster have been improving for the lower tier ones but not the higher tier ones lol
And an FYI. That stuff on the geound during Titans 1st drop is remants of past attractions.
Going there next year looks like a nice park. a bit death on the day you where there but still looks nice.
The track on those E&F coasters just looks so weird to me... it's like you're riding on a sideways fence lol
I forgot the Shockwave that close to the Mine Train. The track goes from the south of the park to the north.
The original Texas Giant was the same way. After the mid course breaks, it was just kinda meh, even before it became super rough. Still one of my all time favorites overall.
marc, Mr freeze goes both ways
and nobody is really talking about it idk if they know
Man I wish Mindbender from Edmonton Malls Galaxyland was still running!!
That day was my birthday lol some hurricane from Mexico did formed alot of humid weather and lots of rain in California that day....
You are so underrated keep up the good work much love
Appreciate that 🙏🏻
yes yes
I went on the Texas giant 2 times, but I was so scared to ride the titan but when I go back!!! I'm riding the titan
the best airtime in the part just mignt be in the last row of runaway mine train
Six flags above Texas was next to my old house and that was fr my old stomping grounds
33:50 Royyyy? WOYYYYYYYY WOLLS WOYCE HOYYYYYYYYYYYYYY I'ma show him lmao
I’m done I went to Over Texas last September and I only rode it launching fowards and I didn’t even notice there was the side launching backwards 😭
I think it’s pretty recent they changed it.
@@cody_t Oh if that’s the case then that makes more sense
Every Six Flags park needs a cool dark ride. Scratch that , EVERY park should have a cool dark ride. Pirates of Spelunker Cave is wacky but cool. Monster Mansion is still the king. I enjoy Justice League but it could be quite a bit better.
But dark rides really elevate a park, especially when there are multiple dark rides. They really give you a more well rounded experience. I'd love to see the chain start prioritizing orginal dark rides for each park because that would draw a lot of attention.
I just don't understand why we don't see a bunch of Looney Tunes dark rides (like what used to be at SFOT.) You'd think a chain pe Six Flags would hire Sally Dark Rides to create some cleanable Looney Tunes ride for all of their parks.
Monster Mansion and Justice League are 🔥 Love them rides
Speelunkeers Cave was the 1st dark ride that opened in the 70s. When Warner Brothers took over in the 90s. They changed it to Yosemite Sams Adventure. The Speelunkers were put in storage. Yes these are the originals refurbished. A flood in 2015 I believe. Ruined a lot of the animatronics of Gold River Adventure. So the park put a new theme to the Speelunkers. I've had the privilege to ride the original and Yosemite Sam. Not this one yet.
This is a park I hope to make it to in the next year or so -- mostly for Mr. Freeze (which is another one of my bucket list coasters in the U.S.). Shockwave did seem a bit rough from your POV's -- but the intense loops look fun. It definitely looks like a much better coaster (maybe not in the area of comfort) than The Riddler Mindbender, which is a coaster that I find to be boring overall (and often overrated for some strange reason by many enthusiasts).
Yeah it’s pretty overrated, Mindbender. It’s got a few nice pops of airtime and that one turn is super intense along with the two loops. It’s fun and a chill ride mostly. I like it for what it is
I liked it a lot back in the mid-80's, when it was the most extreme coaster in the park. Now, it's a coaster I regularly skip when I go to Six Flags, whether that's me budgeting my time on a busy day between Goliath, Twisted Cyclone, Superman and Batman the Ride OR the line for it is just too long of a wait for a coaster of its quality on a less than busy day. I've only ridden it once this season, and I'm fine if I don't get anymore rides on it for the rest of the season.@@huntzzio
Shockwave is doing great, they refurbished the steel a while back.
Shockwave really isn't that rough! It's an older coaster so it's not butter smooth but definitely a good experience. Super underrated coaster. Plus the line for it is almost always nonexistent.
The laat two times i went this year, Judge Roy wasnt open. Also Shockwave isnt bad but its like near the bottom of my listint, even with its classic status
Bro I went to fright fest yesterday at Six Flags St. Louis and I got my first night rides on American Thunder, The Screaming Eagle , and The Boss
How could you record? I am just asking becase i want to so bad!
wait how did you get your recording equipment on the ride?
Lol thats the one 10min away from my house
I went to six flags yesterday
Be careful on those rides Marc
NTG and Titan are such great eepetavle coasters- as lonf as you are hydrated! Its hot as fuck at rhe park in the summer, and even if you can go on days where its a ghostown and do repeats of every ride- you should still take a break to chug water
I had more water that day than i’ve ever had 😂
What did you use to film POV? Was it a magnet pendant? Does Six flags allow cameras on rides?
They don’t allow filming on rides. I’m not sure how Marc got away with it.
Next time eat the pink thing ice cream it’s a staple at over Texas
I’m glad you enjoyed my hp bro!
Thank you!
dude i would not survive that heat 😂
2:02 RELATABLE lmaoooo
Why didn’t you get in the Batman?! Or Runaway Mountain?
I also prefer New Texas Giant first drop too El Toro
Funny how you mention that you make noises on the ride since I completely judge a ride based on your reaction to the elements
How do coaster enthusiast afford these trips?
Had to look up Uncle Bernie’s as a south Florida local…. That’s the swap shop… that place should not be operating😂
😂😂😂
Hey marc! i love your channel. six flags over texas is my home park, but i believe this is also the worst six flags park. what do you think?
Thank you! Six Flags Over Texas is far from one of the best, but it’s certainly not one of the worst.
Have you done a Six flags over Georgia Vlog?
I have two! One from 2021 & another from 2023. Be sure to give them a watch :)
Look hate on six flags all you want but six flags over Texas and fiesta Texas are always amazing they do it right
Fun fact: New Texas Giant actually used to have a moving loading platform in the first few years of its existance.
Wow! I didn’t know that. Why’d they get rid of it?
@@CoasterDash I watched a video of it being used, and it doesnt look very effective for a coaster with long trains, as they had to load each row individually.
I would do the same thing.
Wth how old are you anyways i love your content this is my home park ❤
But are you now safe and back home in California?
Yes. This video was recorded nearly a month ago. I’ve been back at home for a while now. Thanks for checking!
22:58, a certified Go Birds (what we like to call the Philadelphia Eagles football team, which if you know me well by now, is my favorite sports team) moment, since it’s arguably the Eagles’s biggest rival (you could say the New York Giants and Washington Commanders/Football Team/Redskins), but those are more one-sided rivalries in the Eagles’ favor. Dallas, it’s really hit or miss (it’s more Dallas that’s winning, but the Eagles do get the occasional win every now and then, and when we do, it’s one of the greatest feelings, since the Cowboys are monikered as “America’s Team”, and I may understand that due to their success of winning 5 Super Bowls, but that last one was in 1995-96, and their fans (especially bandwagon fans from all over) never shut the f*** up about those past successes, and they haven’t even gotten past the second round of the playoffs since then, so I gotta say since I have a grudge with Dallas, F**k Dallas, but at least AT&T Stadium is awesome, I toured there last summer when I was there and went to SFOT the day after, but I wore my Eagles gear heading into there and the Cowboy fans in Dallas who were loyal, were nice, but they’re afraid of Philly fans due to its reputation on the national media that were animals and all they talk about is the incident where Eagles fans booed Santa Claus on the field in the 60’s, but we’re nicer than you’d expect, but like any team we do have some nut heads, and we try to embrace our reputation and we can be aggressive, but that’s all in good fun. Sorry I was long for a non-sports fan but I wanted to explain a bit about the Eagles-Cowboys rivalry.
I'm not sure if I'm in the minority or not, but I actually prefer Mr. Freeze forwards as was originally intended.
This was filmed/uploaded about the last time i got a credit
Park looks empty!
It was very very very quiet
