Correct me if I’m wrong, but I’m pretty sure it looks more like Wicked Cyclone than Iron Rattler. Iron Rattler doesn’t have blue trains (as far as I know) and Iron Rattler isn’t surrounded by that many trees. The track looks more like the overbank from Wicked Cyclone right off the drop, which means the brake run is near there too which you can see if you slow down the video/pause at the right time.
I was genuinely surprised The Smiler wasn’t one of the best coasters to open in 2013, since it shattered the inversion record, it’s better than gatekeeper
ATT Chris. You have been a powerhouse of content lately and I wicked appreciate it. Maybe the move to the middle of nowhere will work out good for us fans. You won’t have the 3rd best park in America at your bike ride drive; and you can contemplate. You are the King of Coaster analysts, though. Without rival. Obsessing on coasters has been my big fundamental most effective diversion over the last year. You’re my favorite. I LOVE GAC but he’s been so intermittent. Can I tell you, “As a wise man once said, you can’t go wrong with a B&M hyper,” probably compared to a Macchiato or Krispy Kreme glazed donut, made me flail with laughter. He’s my third fav, and he’s producing barely anything lately too. I would love to become a part of the YT coaster analyst community, but I’m very very very old, and my spine is kinda shot. And I own and operate a drive-in theatre that keeps me mad busy during every freaking operational week of Hershey, Darien, Cedar, etc. Anyway, thank you bud.
Thanks for your kind words. I hope my move to the middle of nowhere will put me closer to the rest of the coaster world and lead me going to a better range of parks
Very cool video idea! I think my favorite thing about the year that Flying Turns won was that it finished behind Goliath in the top wood coaster list, but I get why Flying Turns won because of how long that ride took to construct and its rarity.
I think a good video idea would be to rank your top nighttime rides. Curious to see how many of your credits you have done at night and what makes each of them unique
Forbidden Journey took my breath away when I rode it. One of the few rides I really had no idea where I was going next and was shocked at most turns. Also the dragon scared me. One of the few rides where I felt like a kid again.
To your Flight of Passage point, it truly is one of the best ride experiences you can have. I am a coaster guy but man I've never felt the way I did when getting off of Avatar. They really know how to get all your senses going.
i never knew that you prefer dark rides over coasters. that surprises me since basically all of your videos are about coasters. you should make some more about dark rides!
I kept wating for Velocicoaster but then realized I was a year too late or the video was just a year too early. Either way, watched all the way to the end because I thought this was very well done. Can't really argue too much with the picks either. I personally would love to see some more stateside love for Vekoma and Gerstlauer in the future.
7:08 Hades at Mt. Olympus needed a full train capacity so it could get through the airtime hill needed, otherwise it needed man power for the train to get past the area
Man, O'ziris is such a GREAT inverted, it's definitely up there with Montu, Nemesis, Black mamba... but Wild Eagle winning against Radiator springs Racers is crazy. I guess they wanted to support Dollywood as an independent park and that's fine but it gives strange resulst for sure
I can’t wait for you to ride Flight of Passage! I’ve ridden that and HP and the Forbidden Journey and I would put FOP on top. I think you’ll appreciate the immersive experience.
Listen: I was one of those people who thought they replaced dueling dragons with a family coaster. And I would like to formally apologize for being so damn wrong. It was boring at the start, until the sudden curve up in the sky (idfk what it's called) and HOLY SH*T that took me by suprise. Superb, great job Universal Also how the hell did THAT COASTER BEAT MANTA?!
When I first went on Forbidden Journey, I was eleven and had no coaster/dark ride experience. It won my heart, but man when it tilted us back with the spider above, I screamed and began quietly singing to myself to calm down. Oh how far I've come 😂
Dude I've ridden rise of the resistance and I have ridden flight of Passage. They are both going to blow your mind!!!! So much better than Harry Potter

I'm pleasantly surprised to hear that you like spectacular dark rides over coasters. I think you'll like Flight of Passage when you get to ride it but don't expect it to be the all time best dark ride. It's really cool but it's still a simulator dark ride which means it will never be on the level of Forbidden Journey, Haunted Mansion, Indiana Jones, Pirates of the Caribbean or Radiator Springs Racers.
I personally think its up there with those rides. I usually detest simulators but Flight is marvelous. The immersion, ride system and ride philosophy is something I have never seen in a ride. You aren't in constant peril, there is no objective to overcome and the world is so alien, yet palpable. Flight of Passage works because instead of making a high thrill attraction that mimicked the action of the film it's based off of, it made a serene journey the focus. Between Tower of Terror, Flight and Rise of the Resistence, Dinsey has even modern dark rides nailed so well. Mickey and Minny's Runaway Railway is also something that has blown me away.
@@gotabonetopick2942 to each his own. I like Flight of Passage and I agree with all of the reasons you praised it. But I personally find myself more immersed by an experience when i can clearly see the reality of what I'm looking at and when i can look around and take in the experience which is why I feel that most screen based dark rides aren't as good as rides with practical effects. That stuff, it does have airtime so that's always fun. As for Mickey and Minnie's Runway Railway, I can't bring myself to like that. It uses a version of Mickey and the gang that I personally find to be annoying and the Great Movie Ride was in my top 5 favorite rides of all time so I'm still bitter. And putting aside my own preferences, removing that ride from DHS was like removing Spaceship Earth from EPCOT. It just doesn't make sense.
Manta should be 2009's winner! (though I haven't rode Prowler...) Yes Forbidden Journey is awesome. My favorite simulator is still Soarin', but Forbidden Journey is 2nd. Haven't rode Flight of Passage or Rise of the Resistance though. Flight of Passage in particular had a 3-hour wait all day, so... yeah. I love Hagrid's but Steel Curtain could be better imo, we'll see whenever I get to ride it! Also shoutout to Transformers 3D, it kinda gets overlooked, being dismissed as "another Universal simulator ride," but it's actually really cool (not that I hate Universal simulators though) And last, Flying Turns???
I don't like how it is only coasters who won , since they name it beste RIDE . I think there are some incredible and innovative darkrides as Arthur at Europapark . Anyways , love your Videos ! Pumped for the next one about Europe since I've never been in america :)
If you are doing video ideas then my suggestion is to take coasters in your bucket list, and place them where you think they would go if you actually rode them. For example: if Smiler at Alton Towers is on your bucket list, where do you expect to have it in your rankings and why? What coasters would it place between?
Sorry if I missed it somewhere...but what are your thoughts on the Incredible Hulk coaster? I don't think I've ever heard you talk about it. I thought it was one of the best coasters to a lot of people? Thanks for the content.
2012: To be fair, 2012 was a really weak year for coasters. I think Verbolten or Leviathan probably should have gotten this tbh. 2009: I think Prowler deserved this over Diamondback. 2014: Flying Turns won it based on the fact that it took a million years to open the thing. 2008: RFII deserved it... It's a fantastic coaster, and it's another one like Flying turns that took a million years to materialize. 2011: NTG is probably the best of the bunch. I'd say Cheetah Hunt maybe should have gotten it 2013: Was a stacked year for pure number of coasters. I'd say Gold Striker probably should get it. 2019: Steel Curtain deserved it. 2007: What else opened that year? Maverick is the clear choice. 2005: Hades had very little competition outside of Kingda Ka. 2017: Mystic Timbers was when Kings Island finally got their best new ride award. Totally agree 2016: Lightning Rod shouldn't have gotten it based on it never running in 2016. Switchback should have gotten it. 2006: No question, correct move... 2015: I could make an argument that Thunderbird should have gotten it but, I digress. 2018: I am from Ohio, and think that Time Traveler should have been the winner. 2010: I'm shocked I305 didn't get it...
Forbidden Journey is by far my favorite dark ride as well. I didn't even know it won that award. As much as I love i305, I have to agree that Forbidden Journey deserved that award.
Forbidden Journey is amazing, but it's also intense enough that I had to ride it solo, whereas I got to share Escape from Gringotts with my whole family, so I think I actually enjoyed it the more of the two.
As much as I love Holiday World, I am glad Pilgrim's Plunge did not win that year. But it would've been a little hilarious if it did, since it closed pretty shortly afterwards because of constant issues.
I was actually suprised that Leviathan didn't win, because I swear it should have. I think it was ranked in the top 3, but it should have been the top pick in my opinion. Idk how a wing coaster beat out a giga coaster.
Flight of Passage should’ve won 2017. I can’t properly express how amazing it is. A year like that makes me think they’re should be 2 separate awards, one for best new coaster and best non-coaster ride, because it’s a hard comparison.
Tower of Terror is still one the best rides ever created. The theming, preshow, ride system, reridability and scenes are just perfect. If it weren't for Rise of the Resistance and Flight of Passage, it would be easily the greatest dark ride I've ridden.
@@AirtimeThrills I definitely want to try the CA version. I might be biased because Florida has the best Tower of Terror ride system, but Guardians is a welcome change for a park needing to distinguish itself from other Disney Parks.
Really wasn't expecting Harry Potter to be number 1 on your list but I'm not mad. That ride is great. I usually go on it at least once every time I go to Universal which is about every other week or so.
Flight of Passage is a great ride. But the wow factor decreases dramatically ever time you ride it. Even when you haven't rode it in a year. I go every September. It's still a fun ride but there is nothing like that first time!!!
Video suggestion: Do a video of every "best new ride" from 1980-2005 or something like that. Call it, "had the Best new ride category actually exist in 2005"
I think you hit a miss on steel curtain, it should at least be top 5. I always gray out on the ride at least twice, and kings island is my home park so I'm used to roller coasters.
Sorry to burst a bubble, but Steel Curtain only won the "Best New Roller Coaster" category for 2019, which may seem confusing, but it's something new for the Golden Ticket Awards. Instead of Best New Ride for an Amusement Park, the Golden Tickets created three new categories in 2019, those being Best New Family Attraction, Best New Roller Coaster, and what's basically the new way of saying "Best New Ride", Best New Attraction Installation, which Hagrid's actually won. Again, sorry if this causes any confusion.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but I’m pretty sure it looks more like Wicked Cyclone than Iron Rattler.

The track looks more like the overbank from Wicked Cyclone right off the drop, which means the brake run is near there too which you can see if you slow down the video/pause at the right time.
Yeah Iron Rattler doesn't have a left banking turn like that either, probably the overbank exit on Wicked Cyclone
@@Cookiesr4life yep, you’re totally right! I would change it but I don’t want the heart to disappear 😢
Ah whatever
Rank the coasters in your intro
I didn’t know you were a fan of great Disney and Universal dark rides. My respect for your theme park opinions has increased even more!
Video idea: What makes a ride a GP magnet vs what scares them off?
I was genuinely surprised The Smiler wasn’t one of the best coasters to open in 2013, since it shattered the inversion record, it’s better than gatekeeper
The Grand Theft Autos are biased with America. Either that or they’re bribed by CF, like the conspiracies that Disney bribes critics and Oscars.

I feel like the intimidator coasters were intimidated when forbidden journey won.
That tells that the voters are more of Harry Potter fans than NASCAR fans.
I remember riding The Forbidden Journey back in 2013. It was easily the best ride I ever rode.
Outlaw run was definitely a lot better and smoother when it first opened, I got a chance to ride it a couple times and it was amazing

Ill add it to the list, thanks!
If there’s one thing I can say I love about wild eagle it’s that it’s glossy smooth. There’s is no rattle whatsoever

I like to see the dark ride love. A good dark ride can’t be beat. That’s why Tower of Terror @ Hollywood Studios is my all time favorite ride
Tower of Terror is still one the best rides ever created. The theming, preshow, ride system, reridability and scenes are just perfect. If it weren't for Rise of the Resistance and Flight of Passage, it would be easily the greatest dark ride I've ridden.

I gave you the 50th like!
Nice list
I think you hit a miss on steel curtain, it should at least be top 5. I always gray out on the ride at least twice, and kings island is my home park so I'm used to roller coasters.
The Golden Ticket awards are US focussed... 2016... Taron not mentioned...
Great video though... 👌
Basically ranking the best MERICA voted attractions.
The fact that Untamed lost to Steel Curtain is almost a crime.
It is a crime
Zadra and hakugei lost to steel curtain too, so 3 crimes
Radiator Springs racers should have won 2012. It's a theme park masterpiece.
Nice video
Sorry to burst a bubble, but Steel Curtain only won the "Best New Roller Coaster" category for 2019, which may seem confusing, but it's something new for the Golden Ticket Awards.
Instead of Best New Ride for an Amusement Park, the Golden Tickets created three new categories in 2019, those being Best New Family Attraction, Best New Roller Coaster, and what's basically the new way of saying "Best New Ride", Best New Attraction Installation, which Hagrid's actually won. Again, sorry if this causes any confusion.
That makes sense, thanks for letting me know, i didn't realize they blew up the category like that
Right now Voyage is my number 1 coaster, maybe itll change whenever i finally get out to ride Toro or Vengeance, but who knows
That one guy that voted for oscars wacky taxi instead of steel vengeance
