  • Bolliger and Mabillard is a Swiss manufacturer of roller coasters, and they have revolutionized the industry many times. And with a new revision of their stand-up coaster making its debut, the future looks bright for them. So let’s look back at all of their major models and compare them to the latest in their models. This mini-documentary was created by BliXXardStorm as a celebration for hitting 400 subscribers, so if you’d like to see more coaster content, it would be much appreciated if you subscribed! Thank you all so much for watching my biggest video ever, and stay tuned for more as always!

    I sincerely hope you all will enjoy this mini-documentary because I poured my heart into it! If you’re new, feel free to stick around for more videos!
    CORRECTION: Oblivion opened in 1998, not 1988.. 💀

    Loved the video! I love how you can tell right away a coaster is a B&M with the roar

      Thank you so much! And yeah, the roar especially on Inverted Coasters is insane.

      Thank you so much! I’m glad you did enjoy it because you probably won’t see anything else this long from me for a long time. 😅

    My favorite Coaster I was on is from B&M. It is Leviathan in Canadas Wonderland 💪💪

      Leviathan looks awesome!! I’ve ridden Fury 325 at Carowinds, and it’s my number 2 coaster!

    the only 2 B&M wing coasters i've been on are Mandrill and Swarm, and though Swarm has the the better forces, Mandrill is just a fun ride overall and the launches are pretty intense for a family thrill coaster i also love to see B&M trying different concepts and being experimental.

    • @BliXXardStorm

      Cool! And what’s just as good is various parks trying their new experimental models. Thanks for watching!

    I never knew two of my coaster credits were B&M firsts on their first seasons, Iron Wolf and Batman. Great video !! It may be hard to believe but 30 years ago Iron Wolf wasn't that rough but then again the only other stand ups I've ridden were Arrow and Togo.

    • @BliXXardStorm
      @BliXXardStorm  Год назад +1

      Cool! While Iron Wolf now is very outdated, I do think you’re right about it being a solid coaster back then. Thanks for watching!

    B&M didn't come up with the idea for the inverted coaster. Jim Wintrode, then-president of Six Flags Great America, wanted a suspended coaster, but one that looped. He approached B&M with the concept. In fact, Batman was first advertised an "outside looping" coaster.

      Interesting, thank you for the correction!

    Nice video. The man in the orange shirt at 15:12 is not Claude Mabillard. He was interviewing Walter Bolliger.

    Where’s the sit down coaster?

    • @BliXXardStorm
      @BliXXardStorm  10 месяцев назад +1

      I put it as an honorable mention as the Floorless roller coaster was more innovative.

    What about the sit down?

    • @BliXXardStorm
      @BliXXardStorm  8 месяцев назад +1

      I left it as an honorable mention in the video as it wasn’t as innovative as the other major models. Good point, though!
