I love lists for which one quickly feels that the listmaker’s personal experiences alone are determining everything, not conventional wisdom or consensus. Even though I disagree with so many choices here, I thoroughly enjoyed your list, because it feels real and valuable, taking me along to some extent with your experiences over the years.
I actually released mine today as well where I also discuss my choices if you feel inclined to watch it. I don't like the lists just with music either.
Honestly watch this once a week because it shows so many povs of so many different rides and it breaks them down so quick. I mean I love the ranks as well but you're simplicity of your editing and commentary makes it so rewatchable.
SFGA is my home park, and I remember I was so terrified of RB and the first time I rode this, I got stuck on the lift and had a panic attack... It's currently my favorite, right up there with AE and Viper. That's the only park I've every been to, considering I'm a minor. I am dying to get to cedar point and magic mountain.
I see we rank Mystic Timbers and Millennium Force very similarly as we have them next to one another in that respective order. As you know, I am in love with Diamondback and I am so happy to see that you have it ranked so highly even having been on over 400 coasters. In fact, you even have it a couple spots ahead of where I do! This was awesome to watch.
Coaster is about 40 spots too low... at least. Also seeing how similarly Phoenix is placed, that'll probably be a top 10 ride for me. Viper bumped up this year too, for me. Consistently running great across every visit and my Fright Fest rides were hauling ass. American Thunder is fun but I now haven't ridden it in 3 years so my memory is fairly weak. I share your opinion of Lightning Run. Very fun, but not too amazing. Love Kraken so much, glad to see it get represented. Outlaw Run needs some re-riding, it was barely rough in every row this past June and really seemed to be a perfect ride for me. It's my #6 for a reason. Raptor is excellent and never has a line. Ridden it many times for good reasons, B&M Inverts are my favorite coaster type for a reason. I much prefer Raptor to Banshee but it's still a fun ride. Valravn is whatever, since riding SheiKra I like it less. But I still have some good memories from it. Maverick in 2016 was truly incredible and would probably still be in my top 10 today but 2018 Maverick was less impressive. Still such a winner, though. Mmmm... Montu is incredible. I don't remember where but I think it's either my #10 or just outside it. Hopefully you'll ride Nemesis soon in the coming years, as it's easily the best one I've done. Goliath was running a little lesser this year but still a pretty fucking awesome coaster. I'm still pissed about missing SFOG's Goliath and Twisted Cyclone. But the stupid park needs to get their act together earlier in the season. Loved Time Traveler but it really didn't deliver what I expected outside the back car, so I think it's a bit overrated. Voyage never disappoints. Absolutely flawless ride in my eyes, still a top 5 coaster after a few years. Magnum also never disappoints. Blew me away in 2016, held up in 2018. Can never get enough of the ejector at the end. Millennium Force also is a personal favorite. My 2018 rides were sooo good, especially after disappointing, nearly airtime-less rides in 2016. Storm Chaser is lit. I couldn't ride it for 2 days when I went to Louisville but the ejector is still arguably the strongest I've ever felt this side of Intamin. X2 is one of those coasters I'd pay money to travel to just for that ride alone. I only got 2 rides on it in 2017 but both times it left me breathless the whole way through, one of the only coasters to do such a thing. Raging Bull... yeah we've discussed this in the past, the comment section doesn't need to see it. Love Mako's high placement, my front row rides were flawless this past March. I need more rides on Twisted Colossus too. My 2017 visit was pretty much getting in as many credits as possible, so my next visit should be taking the time to enjoy the coasters. Everyone should budget for 2 days here. Lol Diamondback... haha... 2017 Lightning Rod was pretty much perfect for me, especially the back row. My favorite coaster I rode that opened this decade and my #2 overall, and every credit I have except for ONE is from 2011 and on up. Steel Vengeance was fantastic but inconsistent, another one I need to re-ride. I love that I've come to the point in my life as an enthusiast where I literally don't care if a coaster is in a different spot than mine. The video was very well done and the list so different from the norm. Hopefully sooner rather than later I can get back into coaster RUclips, but I got some NEW video recording sunglasses for Christmas today so who knows :) I'll use them the first time at Holiday In The Park later this week.
Apollo's Chariot biggest loser of 2019??? I rode it in August of this year and it was running fantastically! 5 back row rides throughout the day and the floater airtime was heavenly. I absolutely love this coaster!
How To Play Everything Superman is in my Top 5 and Wickie is in my top 10. I feel like Superman is amazing if you sit right, and I can only imagine how awesome it was with the T bars
Great list! I can tell you love the classic hypers. They're not as big a deal to me, but we all have our own preferences. I liked seeing Steel Eel on the list. I finally got back on it recently, and it was worlds better than I remember. I totally agree with you on the RMC raptors. I have them at about the exact same spots. And I agree about Wicked Cyclone being top 10 worthy.
My family is taking a trip up to both Cedar Point and Kings Island this summer to celebrate my brother and I graduating our respective schools and my last year with them before moving out. First time I've ever been to either park or a Cedar Fair park at all. I can't wait to add some more credits to my own list. I have nowhere near as many as most enthusiasts, but just getting Steel Vengeance on that list alone is going to make this trip worth it to me. Cedar Point is one of those parks I never thought I'd actually get to go to and this trip has me feeling a little star struck. Edit: This aged like milk
I’ve had a membership to Busch gardens for three years now and I can say that some days apollo runs as you describe it, and others it’s one of the best B&M hyper experiences.
There’s a lot of very interesting takes on here, which I like. Nice to see a RUclips enthusiast with some different opinions, and being very open and honest with them. A lot of people’s top lists tend to be very similar. Just goes to show that there is variance in people’s preferences in what they enjoy in a ride, and there is no right or wrong answer.
I think that list is really good and I love all your videos. I rode voyage this summer and I didn't have high expectations for it and I was blown away. It even beat SV for me so I'm surprised by your list. But keep up the good work your videos are great!
49. I really like Viper. Theme Park Crazy has a t-shirt that says "you can never go wrong with a B&M hyper" (and there's one right next to Viper, Raging Bull). When it comes to woodies, you can never go wrong with a Coney Island Cyclone layout.
Happy Holidays! Great to see the Bull in your top ten. I rode last weekend, excellent ride in cold weather in the middle of the train. X-flight was awesom too!
I’ve been waiting for your 2019 list. It’s a solid list!! *im glad to see 2 of my hometown rollercoasters on your list - Storm Chaser and Lightning Run *im also glad to see some of my favorite rides in nearby home parks - Diamondback, Banshee (I agree it’s better than Raptor) and The Voyage (my favorite woodie).
Excellent list!!! Been waiting for this! ☺️I almost fell over seeing how high you ranked Raging Bull! lol SFGAm is my home park and I really enjoy this coaster, so it makes me sad when it gets as much hate as it usually does. Excited for you to ride Maxx Force soon!
@@riolaaaey9875 Banshee is trash. I'm triggered that he put a poc over Viper, I305, Skyrush and actually good inverts. He has some of the weirdest opinions out there.
6 COASTERS FROM AMERICA'S ROLLER COAST. PRETTY IMPRESSIVE. CAN'T WAIT TO SEE WHAT CEDAR POINTS NEW COASTER IS FOR 2021. AWESOME FOR RESPECTING MAGNUM XL200. ONE OF THE BEST EJECTOR AIRTIME COASTERS ON THE PLANET.
El Toro back row is the most wild ride I have ever been on in my life. Its is terrifying and hilarious at the same time. I'm always laughing my ass off at the end of that ride. The last 30 seconds are completly insane!
I thought intimidator had plenty of airtime and of course it was intense. It was just a well balanced coaster to me. The restraints felt non existent too. Plus I'm not really an airtime junkie. I feel as tho a coaster doesn't need to have a ton of airtime go be good.
A bit late but awesome list, Raging Bull’s first drop is very intriguing to me as I hear more and more people talk about it but it’s also great to hear that the twister layout is great. Merry Christmas !🎄
YESSS THANK YOU FOR GIVING RAGING BULL ITS JUSTICE!!!! Everyone says it’s the weakest hyper, it’s at my home park I ride it soo much. It isn’t that bad, some of the twister elements give some airtime. THANKS!!
Your credit count is huge, especially because I think I've heard you say before that you haven't done Europe or Japan yet. Congrats, man. Love the channel.
Merry Christmas Chris! If you happen to be visiting Magic Mountain for lunch (or somehow have the day off) on Thursday, Jan. 16, I will be there getting my 400th credit. I'm planning on it being Twisted Colossus, because of my love for RMC's. I'm visiting Knott's the day before (my first ever visit) and will then spend 2 days at MM, which I visited once in 2000. I would love to say hi and it would be awesome to ride my 400th with another enthusiast. I know it's a long shot, but let me know if you might visit that day!
I have been in every seat on Raging Bull. If one sits in the back 3 rows, there is plenty of Airtime. I agree it's the most underrated B&M. I'm happy to see it crack your top 10. Thanks for the Great America Love.
Dude I love your channel, raging bull is also one of my favorite b&m hypers, you still have ur opinions even if their not popular unlike other coaster channels
"I have no plans to get back to Kings Dominion anytime soon" this hurt me :( haha When both you and Taylor have SV ranked at #1...you know it's a good ride
Interesting countdown for sure, especially when I compared it to mine. At the very least where does Tatsu fall? I love flying on the hilltop it's one of my favorite experiences! It seems we like the same rides yet completely different rides all at the same time.

Great List 👍 Six Flags Great Adventure and New England getting some Love. Nitro very underated, Superman classic steel, Wicked Cyclone great layout pacing and inversions and El Toro my all time #1. Now all we need is to bring up I305 on the list 🤷♂️
Most RUclipsrs would say outlaw run is better than most RMC’s but you didn’t I won’t argue I respect your opinion.I love your content because of your different opinions and humor
Great list! I have been on 31 of your top 50 and have quite a few others planned for 2020. Glad to see you corrected the mistake and put Maverick ahead of Valravn! Now if you could put Dragster ahead of it. :)
In 2019, Magnum XL-200 added some thick padding to each of the restraint bars, and it was a nice improvement. No more thigh-crushing on those bunny hills towards the end of the ride. It might even be enough of an improvement to move Magnum a bit higher in your rankings.
I haven't been on a single U.S coaster (yet), but your list makes me want to change that asap! My top 5 bucket list coasters in the U.S: 5. X2 (a dream of mine since I was a wee enthusiast) 4. El Toro (I need to know how different it is to Balder) 3. Twisted Colossus (the dueling coaster dueling for my heart) 2. Steel Vengeance (do I even have to give an explanation, honestly?) 1. Kingda Ka (call me basic af, but height and intense launches are my jam)
I KNOW I commented on this video already but the last one was just on coaster #46. Let me talk about the whole video. I only recently heard you now live in Oklahoma which puts you closer to my home park as well as myself. I actually visited Oklahoma not long ago and saw your new home park which I understand your situation. I hope maybe I can one day do a coaster road trip and hopefully visit the coasters you've ridden. In this list I've only ridden #46, 39, 30, and 15. Yeah. It's small. Hopefully I'll get to visit the other places you mentioned. :)
I wouldn't say it is everyone's number 2, it is my number 1, but I would say it is top 10 in every coaster enthusiast's list. I know a few people that say the ride drains them a bit too much but it is still like 7 or 8 for them.
It does. And took all of the blows to your head and thighs. You get off wondering what the hell just happened. I wanted to get right back on but everyone else had airtime headakes and my sister had to skip out on king de kah.
Nitro is right behind Torro for me at Great Adventure. I actually had a few minutes after riding Torro where I had to consider which I preferred. But I’ve ridden Nitro twice and Torro only once. I need to ride it more before I decide where to place it. In my top 3 definitely. I can’t decide if I like Nitro more than Steel Force. I’ve ridden Steel Force more and got a killer ride in September. Front row completely dark except for the lights on the lift hill, way too much room, and the ride was hauling! But nitro is more intense. Top 3 is torro twisted timbers and I305 and not necessarily in that order. I305 is the only one of those not known for it’s ejector. But it’s so crazy and intense that it couldn’t not be ranked high for me. That ride taught me what whippy transitions were and is still the only ride I grayed out on.
Viper is the only ride at Six Flags Great America I haven't ridden yet. In 2013 it was running backwards and I wanted to experience it forwards. Unfortunately when I went there in 2018 I got to nauseated and had to stop for the day. Steel Eel is actually my favorite ride from Morgan even though I've also ridden the even bigger and faster Wild Thing at Valleyfair. Apollo's Chariot at Busch Gardens Williamsburg may be my least favorite of all the B&M mega coasters I've ridden but it's certainly a must ride at the park. Kraken at SeaWorld Orlando is actually my floorless coaster from B&M (if you don't count the dive coasters). The first time I rode Raptor at Cedar Point in 2015, I wasn't that enthused but I actually liked it a lot more when I went there again in 2017. Never the less, Banshee at Kings Island is my third favorite B&M Invert behind Montu at Busch Gardens Tampa and Alpengeist at Busch Gardens Williamsburg. Valravn is one of my top 5 rides at Cedar Point but I actually like Sheikra at Busch Gardens Tampa and Griffon at Busch Gardens Williamsburg more than Valravn because of how tough the vest restraints are on your chest when you hit the final break run. I've only ridden two RMC coasters: the Texas Giant (my favorite ride at Six Flags Over Texas) and Goliath (my favorite ride at Six Flags Great America). Magnum XL 200 is not one of my favorite rides at Cedar Point or favorite hyper coasters either because it's pretty rough, especially for a steel coaster. I am not saying I wouldn't ride it again, but I wouldn't be in a hurry to do it for sure. Mystic Timbers at Kings Island didn't exist when I went there in 2015 so I can't say how it ranks with the other coasters in the park yet. Maverick is my third favorite ride at Cedar Point behind Top Thrill Dragster and Millennium Force (I haven't ridden Steal Vengeance yet as it didn't exist when I was there in 2015 or 2017). I think Millennium Force could be my favorite coaster ever. Raging Bull is my third favorite ride at Six Flags Great America (behind X-Flight and Goliath) and my favorite B&M hyper/mega coaster. X2 at Six Flags Magic Mountain was a great ride but I don't know where it ranks because I enjoyed all the coasters in that park that I don't even know which one is my favorite. I rode Ghost Rider before the 2016 season so I'll be shocked to ride it and see how much it changed. Mako at SeaWorld Orlando is my second favorite B&M hyper/mega coaster and Diamondback at Kings Island is my third favorite. I rode Colossus at Six Flags Great Adventure in 2014 before it closed so it will be exciting to see what that coaster has become since it changed to Twisted Colossus the following year.
Let's see.... No I-305 No Skyrush No Boulder Dash No Thunderhead No Ravine Flyer II No Top "THRILL" Dragster No Flying coasters This is what makes us all enthusiast. We like what we like. A really good collection of coasters. I'm happy to see the omission of 4D freespins
Time traveler will probably get me so sick. Watching these coasters is making me dizzy but I love roller coasters! I would go on these anyways and then get sick!
A-T-T, - Ohio also has a small 2 coaster park located just 30 miles away from kings island named Stricker's Grove. With only 4 public operating dates per year, It's a hard credit to get. Dates include July 4th, 2nd sun in aug, and labor day.
I like your Wicked Cyclone pick. I don't know if I'd rank it so high, but I don't think it gets enough credit. Maybe it's just the nostalgia from riding Cyclone at Riverside as a kid though.
@@jojo_hendriks Overrated: maybe Forceless: only a little, especially in the second half If you only count the rides without atmosphere, I agree with you, but Klugheim makes Taron so much more cool to ride, and I love it
Airtime's List
Thanks
I was thinking of writing a comment exactly like that. Thank you.
Who else saw the hat flying off at 6:51?😂😂
Good catch!
Why would he wear a hat on a ride that goes upside down
😂😂😂

wonder if he got it back
The top 3 is like the basic enthusiast starter pack top three
EpicPhantom haven’t seen it, but I’d guess it’s SV, El Toro, and Voyage
Bruh Sound efffect 2 close, SV, Toro, and Fury
Well they are the basic enthusiast starter pack top 3 for a reason. They're great
It's almost like they are good rides or something.
Y'all are snorting something, it's obviously speedy Gonzales, air Grover, and lil phantom
Really happy to see GhostRider and X2 so high, great list and video
Troy are you a coaster guy too
TROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOYYYYYYYYYYY
Huh didn’t know Troy likes rollercoasters, especially the ones from Knott’s

I like it how you didn't just list them like other youtuber's do but rather talk for a small amount of time for each ride. Love it!
I actually released mine today as well where I also discuss my choices if you feel inclined to watch it. I don't like the lists just with music either.
Coaster Daddy Enjoyed your list, too.
Airtime Thrills: Bet I'll get a lot of new credits in 2020.

I agree Time Traveler is better than Outlaw Run, but disagree with Magnum being better than Maverick. Solid list though 👍
I'm glad he included Magnum.. It's good..
Don't show this to Coaster Frenzy.

Raging Bull is the most underrated coaster of all time
SFGA is my home park. Have had great rides on it, and ones where the trims ruin the entire thing. Really just depends on the ride ops.
Home park, raging bull is awesome. My first hyper coster
I love Raging Bull too. Great America is my home park. I ride it anytime I can
SFGA is my home park, and I remember I was so terrified of RB and the first time I rode this, I got stuck on the lift and had a panic attack... It's currently my favorite, right up there with AE and Viper. That's the only park I've every been to, considering I'm a minor. I am dying to get to cedar point and magic mountain.
Mmmmmm maybe
I love how you love Wooden Coasters and I respect that
I see we rank Mystic Timbers and Millennium Force very similarly as we have them next to one another in that respective order. As you know, I am in love with Diamondback and I am so happy to see that you have it ranked so highly even having been on over 400 coasters.

Who needs Christmas Eve when you have airtime thrills?
Railblazer is better than you think
I'll reride next year
I’m assuming you live near California’s great America?
Dominic de Martigny he’s 5 mins from magic mountain
You judge a coaster based on a single ride experience, if its short that is a downfall.
Airtime hit me up when you do though cause imma be going there by may 4
Ayy a shout-out for Ghostrider.
As a Knott's employee I can agree how fun the ride is. 👌
honorable mentions: great pumpkin coaster, lil phantom and kosmos kurves.
obama alert I’ve only ridden GPC because I’ve never been to the others.
Octonauts too
Marceli Tucker-Szudra that’s not even in America.
Dosware Pictures it’s such a surreal experience that you feel like you can ride it anywhere
Marceli Tucker-Szudra I prefer Mission to Mars at MPG. Loved The Backyardigans as a kid.
Coaster is about 40 spots too low... at least. Also seeing how similarly Phoenix is placed, that'll probably be a top 10 ride for me.
Viper bumped up this year too, for me. Consistently running great across every visit and my Fright Fest rides were hauling ass.
American Thunder is fun but I now haven't ridden it in 3 years so my memory is fairly weak.
I share your opinion of Lightning Run. Very fun, but not too amazing.

Outlaw Run needs some re-riding, it was barely rough in every row this past June and really seemed to be a perfect ride for me. It's my #6 for a reason.
Raptor is excellent and never has a line. Ridden it many times for good reasons, B&M Inverts are my favorite coaster type for a reason.

Goliath was running a little lesser this year but still a pretty fucking awesome coaster.
I'm still pissed about missing SFOG's Goliath and Twisted Cyclone. But the stupid park needs to get their act together earlier in the season.
Loved Time Traveler but it really didn't deliver what I expected outside the back car, so I think it's a bit overrated.
Voyage never disappoints. Absolutely flawless ride in my eyes, still a top 5 coaster after a few years.
Magnum also never disappoints. Blew me away in 2016, held up in 2018. Can never get enough of the ejector at the end.
Millennium Force also is a personal favorite. My 2018 rides were sooo good, especially after disappointing, nearly airtime-less rides in 2016.

When you ride steel vengeance it's gonna be #1
Oof this is all over the place dang
YESSS, SOMEONE UNDERSTANDS THE ELITE TOP 2 OF SIX FLAGS NEW ENGLAND!!! FINALLY!!!
IMO the only elite ride there is wicked cyclone, and superman is only a bit better than batman DK
How To Play Everything When you aren’t stapled, Superman is a phenomenal ride, so it just comes down to circumstance
ive heared
How To Play Everything Superman is in my Top 5 and Wickie is in my top 10. I feel like Superman is amazing if you sit right, and I can only imagine how awesome it was with the T bars
me too. They're both in my top 8!
424?? Oh no you’re only 10 away from me! 😛
Nice list. Fully agree on Wicked Cyclone. I prefer the longer RMCs.
Great list! I can tell you love the classic hypers. They're not as big a deal to me, but we all have our own preferences. I liked seeing Steel Eel on the list. I finally got back on it recently, and it was worlds better than I remember. I totally agree with you on the RMC raptors. I have them at about the exact same spots. And I agree about Wicked Cyclone being top 10 worthy.
My family is taking a trip up to both Cedar Point and Kings Island this summer to celebrate my brother and I graduating our respective schools and my last year with them before moving out. First time I've ever been to either park or a Cedar Fair park at all. I can't wait to add some more credits to my own list. I have nowhere near as many as most enthusiasts, but just getting Steel Vengeance on that list alone is going to make this trip worth it to me. Cedar Point is one of those parks I never thought I'd actually get to go to and this trip has me feeling a little star struck.
Edit: This aged like milk
I’ve had a membership to Busch gardens for three years now and I can say that some days apollo runs as you describe it, and others it’s one of the best B&M hyper experiences.
Finally someone acknowledges Viper at SFGAM. It’s one of my favorite wooden coasters
There’s a lot of very interesting takes on here, which I like. Nice to see a RUclips enthusiast with some different opinions, and being very open and honest with them. A lot of people’s top lists tend to be very similar. Just goes to show that there is variance in people’s preferences in what they enjoy in a ride, and there is no right or wrong answer.
My favorite ride is Wicked Cyclone. The airtime on the drop and hills, and the inversions are all incredible. I am glad you like it so much
RIP Coaster Frenzy 😂😂😂
14:25 Holy crap that inversion on steel vengeance looks intense!
I think that list is really good and I love all your videos. I rode voyage this summer and I didn't have high expectations for it and I was blown away. It even beat SV for me so I'm surprised by your list. But keep up the good work your videos are great!
Audibly gasped when I saw Raging Bull.
So misunderstood, that ride.
It's the only b&m hyper I've ever ridden, cuz I have never been to any other park other than SFGAm
49. I really like Viper. Theme Park Crazy has a t-shirt that says "you can never go wrong with a B&M hyper" (and there's one right next to Viper, Raging Bull). When it comes to woodies, you can never go wrong with a Coney Island Cyclone layout.
Dont tell that to Psyclone at SFMM
Airtime Thrills not that great I take it?
Fun fact about SFGAM's Viper: it is the only coaster ever built in house by Six Flags
Happy Holidays! Great to see the Bull in your top ten. I rode last weekend, excellent ride in cold weather in the middle of the train. X-flight was awesom too!
There will always be a special place in my heart for X2. I waited 4 1/2 hours and it was WORTH it !!!
Twisted Cyclone and Goliath are the only reasons I have a season pass. Although superman is pretty damn fun too
I have a season pass too and unpopular opinion, but my favorite ride is Mindbender. I'm a sucker for classics.
X2, El toro, and Mystic timbers all shattered my expectations. No joke, they all are elite
I’ve been waiting for your 2019 list. It’s a solid list!!
*im glad to see 2 of my hometown rollercoasters on your list - Storm Chaser and Lightning Run
*im also glad to see some of my favorite rides in nearby home parks - Diamondback, Banshee (I agree it’s better than Raptor) and The Voyage (my favorite woodie).
Excellent list!!! Been waiting for this! ☺️I almost fell over seeing how high you ranked Raging Bull! lol SFGAm is my home park and I really enjoy this coaster, so it makes me sad when it gets as much hate as it usually does. Excited for you to ride Maxx Force soon!
Another raging bull fan!!!
Raging Bull is underrated!!!!
Coasters with Casey Banshee sucks
Wisconsin Thrills what does banshee have to do with anything? He is right bull is amazing and banshee isn’t bad either
Ryan Thompson yeah raging bull is so much better than Goliath i can’t understand why everyone prefers goliath over bull
@@riolaaaey9875 Banshee is trash. I'm triggered that he put a poc over Viper, I305, Skyrush and actually good inverts. He has some of the weirdest opinions out there.
6 COASTERS FROM AMERICA'S ROLLER COAST.
PRETTY IMPRESSIVE.
CAN'T WAIT TO SEE WHAT CEDAR POINTS NEW COASTER IS FOR 2021.
AWESOME FOR RESPECTING MAGNUM XL200.
ONE OF THE BEST EJECTOR AIRTIME COASTERS ON THE PLANET.
El Toro back row is the most wild ride I have ever been on in my life. Its is terrifying and hilarious at the same time. I'm always laughing my ass off at the end of that ride. The last 30 seconds are completly insane!
Great Video! I could see this list being pretty accurate from the reviews and stuff I’ve heard.
Merry Christmas!!!!🎁🎄
Merry christmas
Merry Chrysler
Yes thank you. I 305 I not very good. It lacks in airtime and good restraints. I got staples until I couldn’t feel my legs on it
Some people love intensity more than anything, but to me its just mehh
I thought intimidator had plenty of airtime and of course it was intense. It was just a well balanced coaster to me. The restraints felt non existent too. Plus I'm not really an airtime junkie. I feel as tho a coaster doesn't need to have a ton of airtime go be good.
A bit late but awesome list, Raging Bull’s first drop is very intriguing to me as I hear more and more people talk about it but it’s also great to hear that the twister layout is great.
Merry Christmas !🎄
This is why i love you. You and EL toro Ryan are so awesome with picking the best rides. But anyways love ya man love the vids and keep it up✌
YESSS THANK YOU FOR GIVING RAGING BULL ITS JUSTICE!!!! Everyone says it’s the weakest hyper, it’s at my home park I ride it soo much. It isn’t that bad, some of the twister elements give some airtime. THANKS!!
I'm curious, where would LR rank if you hadn't gotten your 2016 rides, and only relied on your 2019 rides?
Probably still top 10
Your credit count is huge, especially because I think I've heard you say before that you haven't done Europe or Japan yet. Congrats, man. Love the channel.
What did you think of Copperhead Strike? I think it’s a pretty similar ride to Cheetah Hunt
Yeah those 2 are similar. Copperhead is barely top 100
Great Video! If you like mystic timbers and ghost rider you should definitely try to get on renegade next year.
Merry Christmas Chris! If you happen to be visiting Magic Mountain for lunch (or somehow have the day off) on Thursday, Jan. 16, I will be there getting my 400th credit. I'm planning on it being Twisted Colossus, because of my love for RMC's. I'm visiting Knott's the day before (my first ever visit) and will then spend 2 days at MM, which I visited once in 2000. I would love to say hi and it would be awesome to ride my 400th with another enthusiast. I know it's a long shot, but let me know if you might visit that day!
TC would be an awesome 400th, but not likely I'll be getting out there during the week
I have been in every seat on Raging Bull. If one sits in the back 3 rows, there is plenty of Airtime. I agree it's the most underrated B&M. I'm happy to see it crack your top 10. Thanks for the Great America Love.
Glad to see Cannibal and Mako get some love very underrated coasters
YES I love that you love sox flags great America. It’s my home park I go there all the time and I don’t think the rides get enough reapect
Dude I love your channel, raging bull is also one of my favorite b&m hypers, you still have ur opinions even if their not popular unlike other coaster channels
Giving the fans what they want! Great video. Happy Holidays!!
I’ve been waiting for so long yay
wow, i think we underestimate how much footage and editing is required for a top 50 video. Great job
Ghostrider at night in the back is the GOAT. Great list
"I have no plans to get back to Kings Dominion anytime soon" this hurt me :( haha
When both you and Taylor have SV ranked at #1...you know it's a good ride
Merry Christmas! Awesome list! Is There some way to see the rest of the list? I would love to hear what you rank around i305😂
Sky Rush, Dragster, and Kumba rankings may trigger a few folks as well. I really like his list overall.
@@alantrotter2077 i do too!
Interesting countdown for sure, especially when I compared it to mine. At the very least where does Tatsu fall? I love flying on the hilltop it's one of my favorite experiences! It seems we like the same rides yet completely different rides all at the same time.

X2 is # 1. I love it!!!
I like a majority of this list, but I305 outside the top 50 is blasphemy my dude
I dunno I just find it kinda boring 🤷♂️
i305 is not much after the initial hill that causes grey- or black-outs. 2 Hills and a bunch of turns.
The way that ride makes you feel every bit of its speed is insane, all the lateral low to the ground elements easily make it a top 50
Idk y but I'm not that big of a fan of blacking out or extremely intense coasters so I don't like i305 that much
Great List 👍 Six Flags Great Adventure and New England getting some Love. Nitro very underated, Superman classic steel, Wicked Cyclone great layout pacing and inversions and El Toro my all time #1. Now all we need is to bring up I305 on the list 🤷♂️
Most RUclipsrs would say outlaw run is better than most RMC’s but you didn’t I won’t argue I respect your opinion.I love your content because of your different opinions and humor
Great list! I have been on 31 of your top 50 and have quite a few others planned for 2020. Glad to see you corrected the mistake and put Maverick ahead of Valravn! Now if you could put Dragster ahead of it. :)
In 2019, Magnum XL-200 added some thick padding to each of the restraint bars, and it was a nice improvement. No more thigh-crushing on those bunny hills towards the end of the ride. It might even be enough of an improvement to move Magnum a bit higher in your rankings.
jpwcpa can’t forget about the tunnel sounds, lights, and fog for the its 30th anniversary (2019)!!!!! I am a Magnum fan through and through.
What was the song in the top 50
I love how much work u out into a top 50 commentary
Kraken is your favorite floorless? I thought it was a little bumpy, and personally my favorite is Superman Krypton Coaster at SFFT
What do you think of GateKeeper at Cedar Point? I'm surprised not to see it on this list.
No one can deny that Cedar Point is still the reining roller coaster capital, and produces the best coasters out there.
Love the list. And what great timing, a gift. Thank you and Happy Holidays!
I haven't been on a single U.S coaster (yet), but your list makes me want to change that asap!
My top 5 bucket list coasters in the U.S:
5. X2 (a dream of mine since I was a wee enthusiast)
4. El Toro (I need to know how different it is to Balder)
3. Twisted Colossus (the dueling coaster dueling for my heart)
2. Steel Vengeance (do I even have to give an explanation, honestly?)
1. Kingda Ka (call me basic af, but height and intense launches are my jam)
Thanks for noticing Raging Bull! I also love that Coaster!
Glad to see magnum at 18!
I remember waiting for this! Great list!
Watching this makes me realize magic mountain needs to step up their game
Finally, someone that appreciates banshee. Op'd that ride for 4 years, was a hard job, but I loved the ride.
100% agree with the raging bull pick, it’s my #2 hyper. But outlaw run isn’t rough 😂
I KNOW I commented on this video already but the last one was just on coaster #46. Let me talk about the whole video. I only recently heard you now live in Oklahoma which puts you closer to my home park as well as myself. I actually visited Oklahoma not long ago and saw your new home park which I understand your situation. I hope maybe I can one day do a coaster road trip and hopefully visit the coasters you've ridden. In this list I've only ridden #46, 39, 30, and 15. Yeah. It's small. Hopefully I'll get to visit the other places you mentioned. :)
Ok Taylor needs to parody el torro. Forever every coaster enthusiast’s number 2 coaster. There can be a confrontation between it and SV.
I wouldn't say it is everyone's number 2, it is my number 1, but I would say it is top 10 in every coaster enthusiast's list. I know a few people that say the ride drains them a bit too much but it is still like 7 or 8 for them.
@@matthewp7667 the draining is part of what makes it great. That coaster makes you feel like you just went to battle
That’s true. Of course it’s not everyone’s number 2. I’m just generalizing. It’s in my top 3 but I need to ride it more. Also I haven’t ridden SV yet.
It does. And took all of the blows to your head and thighs. You get off wondering what the hell just happened. I wanted to get right back on but everyone else had airtime headakes and my sister had to skip out on king de kah.
@@MARKOUTTV I agree with you. I love rides that make me feel drained after riding them, just not everyone does
Nitro is right behind Torro for me at Great Adventure. I actually had a few minutes after riding Torro where I had to consider which I preferred. But I’ve ridden Nitro twice and Torro only once. I need to ride it more before I decide where to place it. In my top 3 definitely. I can’t decide if I like Nitro more than Steel Force. I’ve ridden Steel Force more and got a killer ride in September. Front row completely dark except for the lights on the lift hill, way too much room, and the ride was hauling! But nitro is more intense. Top 3 is torro twisted timbers and I305 and not necessarily in that order. I305 is the only one of those not known for it’s ejector. But it’s so crazy and intense that it couldn’t not be ranked high for me. That ride taught me what whippy transitions were and is still the only ride I grayed out on.
Viper is the only ride at Six Flags Great America I haven't ridden yet. In 2013 it was running backwards and I wanted to experience it forwards. Unfortunately when I went there in 2018 I got to nauseated and had to stop for the day. Steel Eel is actually my favorite ride from Morgan even though I've also ridden the even bigger and faster Wild Thing at Valleyfair. Apollo's Chariot at Busch Gardens Williamsburg may be my least favorite of all the B&M mega coasters I've ridden but it's certainly a must ride at the park. Kraken at SeaWorld Orlando is actually my floorless coaster from B&M (if you don't count the dive coasters). The first time I rode Raptor at Cedar Point in 2015, I wasn't that enthused but I actually liked it a lot more when I went there again in 2017. Never the less, Banshee at Kings Island is my third favorite B&M Invert behind Montu at Busch Gardens Tampa and Alpengeist at Busch Gardens Williamsburg. Valravn is one of my top 5 rides at Cedar Point but I actually like Sheikra at Busch Gardens Tampa and Griffon at Busch Gardens Williamsburg more than Valravn because of how tough the vest restraints are on your chest when you hit the final break run. I've only ridden two RMC coasters: the Texas Giant (my favorite ride at Six Flags Over Texas) and Goliath (my favorite ride at Six Flags Great America). Magnum XL 200 is not one of my favorite rides at Cedar Point or favorite hyper coasters either because it's pretty rough, especially for a steel coaster. I am not saying I wouldn't ride it again, but I wouldn't be in a hurry to do it for sure. Mystic Timbers at Kings Island didn't exist when I went there in 2015 so I can't say how it ranks with the other coasters in the park yet. Maverick is my third favorite ride at Cedar Point behind Top Thrill Dragster and Millennium Force (I haven't ridden Steal Vengeance yet as it didn't exist when I was there in 2015 or 2017). I think Millennium Force could be my favorite coaster ever. Raging Bull is my third favorite ride at Six Flags Great America (behind X-Flight and Goliath) and my favorite B&M hyper/mega coaster. X2 at Six Flags Magic Mountain was a great ride but I don't know where it ranks because I enjoyed all the coasters in that park that I don't even know which one is my favorite. I rode Ghost Rider before the 2016 season so I'll be shocked to ride it and see how much it changed. Mako at SeaWorld Orlando is my second favorite B&M hyper/mega coaster and Diamondback at Kings Island is my third favorite. I rode Colossus at Six Flags Great Adventure in 2014 before it closed so it will be exciting to see what that coaster has become since it changed to Twisted Colossus the following year.
WOW! My childhood coaster made it! #46! STEEL EEL! :D
really happy to see American Thunder on here
Let's see....
No I-305
No Skyrush
No Boulder Dash
No Thunderhead
No Ravine Flyer II
No Top "THRILL" Dragster
No Flying coasters
This is what makes us all enthusiast. We like what we like. A really good collection of coasters. I'm happy to see the omission of 4D freespins
Time traveler will probably get me so sick. Watching these coasters is making me dizzy but I love roller coasters! I would go on these anyways and then get sick!
A-T-T, - Ohio also has a small 2 coaster park located just 30 miles away from kings island named Stricker's Grove. With only 4 public operating dates per year, It's a hard credit to get. Dates include July 4th, 2nd sun in aug, and labor day.
Love seeing Raging Bull in the top 10! I won’t be surprised if Voyage moves up on your list after Holiwood Nights.
I like your Wicked Cyclone pick. I don't know if I'd rank it so high, but I don't think it gets enough credit. Maybe it's just the nostalgia from riding Cyclone at Riverside as a kid though.
Great selections and explanations!

stilldownwiththemutantunderground will you Ride it this year?
I think Taron should be at least above Karacho
PlanetDragon Taron is forceless and overrated
@@jojo_hendriks Overrated: maybe
Forceless: only a little, especially in the second half
If you only count the rides without atmosphere, I agree with you, but Klugheim makes Taron so much more cool to ride, and I love it
