I'm the operator that was on Hero. It has been super temperamental and I'm sorry for being kinda awkward but it was so lovely to meet you and of course have a bit of fun with you since we all know it isn't your favourite ride.
I’m sorry but who on earth designed those dreadful coaster trains. I’m with Shawn on this and would Class it as the UK’s worst and most uncomfortable coaster ride. It’s awful to look at it’s awful to ride sorry!
I'm 29 now but i remember spending a week of my summer holidays a few times at flamingo land as a kid with my big family. My happiest memories as a kid are definitely there. I remember magnum force, bullet, terrorizer and even flamingo star. Honestly i feel a bit of a beautiful sadness watching this because i'm older and things never stay the same but i cherish those memories so much and this video has reminded me of so much. So thank you!
Some great family coaster rides at this park, (with the exception of Hero). Looking forward to to the mighty ten inversion coaster opening. Unusual to have a family bakery situated inside the park but it does look popular. Nice vlog Shawn and Charlotte keep up the good work 👍
Love watching your videos I am a new follower this year but I love watching all uploads and watching old ones too so FUN to watch 😁😁 have a good day 🙂🤣
Seems like such a great family park but operations look like they need improving. Got to get there at some point next year. Looking fwd to Austria 🇦🇹 👍
I visited the park today and everything was open and also walk on! The employees allowed us to stay on the trains and they sent us again. I ended up getting 4 rides on pretty much everything we could and got £95+ worth of rides (added up using your tally from last year's vlog). We even managed to fit in all of the shows, an hour of the zoo and an hour to eat because of these short queues. Well, to be fair, schools went back today in this area, but still an amazing day.
I did a zookeeper experience here at flamingo land, it ended at 4pm so we go free access to the park for 1 hour. We went on velocity, mumbo jumbo and kumali. had a great day
hi there guys, was really lovely meeting you both today (saturday 25th june 2022) in the queue for Icon at Blackpool Pleasure, i was with my daughter and her best friend, thank you so much for letting my daughter have her photo taken with you both, she said thats going in a frame and on her bedside cabinet.....take care guys, keep the vlogs coming
very good video vlog from Flamingo Land Resort in North Yorkshire for an action-packed day experiencing everything the park has to offer. In this vlog, we share on ride povs from all of the major roller coasters, including Kumali, Mumbo Jumbo, Velocity, and much more. Along with that, we experience a variety of other rides at Flamingo Land along with taking a relaxing stroll through the zoo! Shawn & Charlotte, keep the good videos vlog up on the channel both of you, big thumbs up as well to both of you.
32:14 I could tell Shawn was planning to jump off the train and shout 'SUBSCRIBE TO THEME PARK WORLDWIDE!!!!!' through the microphone 😂. Or just connect his phone and play the most recent video!
Nice combo park with the zoo and theme park mix. Not the caliber of Bush Gardens but beautiful park. Yes the pirate show was more exciting when they had the stunts and acrobatics . Hero looked very painful. The plus is that they had a lot of family coasters . The dark could be better with a full story line from beginning to end with interactive lighting and effects . Thanks for what you do. I would have liked to have seen the water ride open.
Great Vlog Shawn, always love watching your vlogs and you and Charlotte sharing your experiences with us. Been a viewer since your Thorpe park vlogs back in 2014, Being a creative artist and fashion designer as a student At University of the arts London Central Saint Martins, I have been inspired by the immense variety of Coasters and the world of theme parks pretty much since I had my first experience on SAW in 2015. I am incredibly drawn to the visual idea of roller coasters and what they serve in terms of the characteristics of the tracks, drops, inversions, components and the vast quality of theming and imagination. I am particularly fascinated by the language and intelligence you have towards your knowledge of coasters and constantly impressed the content you produce. Personally I have only visited Thorpe Park, legoland windsor tivolii Phantasialand, once. Only having a small taste of what the world has to offer but one of my dreams is to visit Alton Towers and Experience the world famous coasters there but to honest I just want to travel the globe and visit them all! Japan, US, and many more. Hopefully after I graduate, Thanks again for another great vlog with exclusive POV, cant wait to see your experience on the 10 inversion.
Seems like a much better visit than last one in 2021 where the park looked a bit depressing. Inversion is going to be a massive ride for them, but they need to get rid of Hero though, that thing just looks nasty.
Watching you guys on Pterodactyl made me litteral dizzy. For the rest a great family park where kids have just as much fun as they would have on their bigger brothers and sisters like Disney and Efteling. 29 entrance fee (34,5 euro) for so many good rides and less waiting time than mentioned parks. Some really nice coasters. Hope they will invest in a couple of darkrides Hope you got a good massage after your last ride.
I have read online that flip flop might be reopening in summer as they failed to sell it. Really hope I can get back on this ride. I really enjoyed the water features and theming. Would be good to have this thrill ride open again!
One for your other channel but if you want to see some friendly goats, you need to go to Pomeroy farm in the Peak District. You can even buy feed for them, went the other day and two kids (goat kids) had escaped and were making friends with everyone. Definitely recommend! It's a small family run caravan and camping site, they have a cow milk vending machine and homemade ice cream, lovely little place to visit.
I cant ride that lost river rive anymore, we were sat in the second from last row, it had just opened (later in the day) and we were first to ride! Great we thought! After the main drop, suddenly I heard screams from the row behind, and my husband had a spider the size of a tarantula on his back crawling up his neck. None of us could get off the ride quick enough, as a bloke managed to wack it off him and it fell on the floor. I queued the following time we were there and just couldnt get on it! lol
Sean when you next go to light water valley I highly recommend you the forbidden corner down the road from light water valley its a beautiful mythical adventure I highly recommend i hope you read this recommendation thank you
Hi Shawn and Charlotte I hope you are having a good day at flamingo land I going to flamingo land later this year and I do hope the new rollercoaster is ready we are thinking of going in August i injoyed my trip to Thorpe park what a great theme park the swarm was my favourite ride of the day the themeimg was great and the ghost train was excellent it made me jump
Good to see the old high Sierra ride from my local park the American adventure is still in operation it doing well it ran for the full 20 seasons the aa was open bet u rode it when you visited when you was young
thanks for another great vlog from one of my two local parks shawnand charlotte, love the "get me to cooplands bakery" comment xD, definatly a plus considering the price of some theme park food across the uk. However last time I rode the dreaded HERO, I acutally got a bruised shoulder and was in pain all day absolutly disgusting ride -.-
Hey shaun and Charlotte. Check out Ankapark, it has a coaster with the exact layout as the new flamingo land coaster. Shame Ankapark has now closed down.
I've not been to Flamingo Land for a few years I think I will definitely take a trip when the new coaster opens though, that will mean Alton Towers and Flamingo Land this Summer....already got my Alton Towers booked!
Flamingo land could easily be the best park in the uk if it gets more rides here and flat rides I think but Funny happy guy this kid and his head is funny too a bit like a spitting image character off tele from years back but he's definitely the best coaster man on RUclips I enjoy watching Alton towers for me on the 5th cant wait
@@ThemeParkWorldwide my kids just had some sausage rolls from one today. I cannot take them into town without going to one of them. We have 2 in our town center.
Im up flamingo land way end of may so I was thinking of visiting the park. Sounds like I will be there just before the new coaster opens. Typical. Just like last year when i went to drayton manor just before they opened the rapids ride
@@ThemeParkWorldwide haha oh lord😂 What did you think of being evacuated. I work at a theme park so see them happen weekly😂 loade of people enjoy being evacuated from height which I find odd
I keep costing up a trip from Portsmouth to hit skegness and flamingo land and every time I end up at a European park instead. I will get there one day though.
Hey Shawn did you ever ride Magnum Force (Quimera) when it was at Flamingo Land? I remember being on holiday there when I was young before I was an enthusiast and doing like 3 rides on it, so intense haha.
Flamingo land use to have such a great haunted house you go in a elevator and then the door would swing open and someone would run in with a knife. Shame they closed it. Also magnum force was a great ride.
We're going to flamingo land in a couple of days and staying for 4 nights, I've been telling my 8 year old daughter about the mischief mansion, but am I right in thinking that the frankenstein used to go up and down on the toilet? Does it not do that anymore?

I love colossus' layout, so for it to be near cloned, with better trains is amazing!
It’s going to be awesome!
Agreed. Great ride with terrible trains so this one should be interesting.

54:03 I love how he's talking about how bad Hero is right in front of a staff member 😂😂.
I appreciate the flamingo’s!! Love how much space the animals are provided with.
Tell Charlotte she is stunning! In love with her hair- when I’m older I hope I’m like her!!
She is beautiful and I’m a very lucky man!

There is indeed. Thanks for watching!
I love flamingo land. have a good day theme park worldwide and everybody else
It’s a good park and we can’t wait for the new coaster to finally open!
I love how you were happy about hero being closed then later on it was open.
Love watching your videos I am a new follower this year but I love watching all uploads and watching old ones too so FUN to watch 😁😁 have a good day 🙂🤣
Thank you so much!
Can’t wait for the 10 inversion coaster! It would be so good to ride!
So excited!
Did you ride it?
The best vlog to always wait for every year!
Thank you!
Been watching since July 2020 and it hasn't disappointed me ONCE 👍
Thank you!
Charlotte with her sandwiches, fresh apple & bottle of water. Shawn with his full-fat pastry items & full-sugar coke ! Well done, Charlotte !
That reaction to hero being closed was so funny
I was so happy to see it closed
Seems like such a great family park but operations look like they need improving. Got to get there at some point next year. Looking fwd to Austria 🇦🇹 👍
Definitely. Thank you, vlogs on the way from my trip very soon!
49:07 Some fan must really care about you both a whole lot, willing to buy over 500 ponchos for Charlotte on water rides.
That Mumbo Jumbo looks terrifying, hugely updated wild mouse ride! but looks very smooth
It’s such a great ride and very smooth indeed!
love these videos so much! going sunday this week a day after sik is opening, cant wait to ride it! also cant wait to see when you guys visit it

Nice to see the park doing work on the park
It is indeed. There’s a long way to go but the park are definitely moving in the right direction!
I no I hope they go the right way

Because I want to meet them aswell!

Hey there Shawn have a great time at flamingo land today I love you Shawn and Charlotte xxxxxxxxxx
We had a great day!
The train takes me back to the days of the American Adventure
Nice combo park with the zoo and theme park mix. Not the caliber of Bush Gardens but beautiful park. Yes the pirate show was more exciting when they had the stunts and acrobatics . Hero looked very painful. The plus is that they had a lot of family coasters . The dark could be better with a full story line from beginning to end with interactive lighting and effects . Thanks for what you do. I would have liked to have seen the water ride open.
I went to flamingo land not to long ago and the colour scheme is AWSOME for a sec I thought it was hero 😂😂😂 I can’t wait to ride it!

Thank you so much!
My local park Iv not been for years magnum Force was a great coaster years back 🎢 . The park is looking great ❤️🙏.
It used to be an epic ride!
You'd be perfect as either a news presenter or a radio host. Why not both?! 😂😬
Thank you!
A Vekoma SLC that's smooth?
Everyone:. Wait. That's illegal.
Surely "dr umbotos catacombs" is the worst dark ride in country !!!!😂😂
Now that is also bad!
I found it funny when you was winding up Charlotte about that ride being closed at 10:50
We have a good laugh!
I love these flamingo land videos
Thanks!
Seems like a much better visit than last one in 2021 where the park looked a bit depressing. Inversion is going to be a massive ride for them, but they need to get rid of Hero though, that thing just looks nasty.
It was indeed!
😂Shawn you on the hero😂 I work for Dunelm, thanks for the plug 😂
Thanks for watching!
First to a vlog I've been waiting for.
Enjoy!
Probably won’t remember as a bit late but I was one of the lads u met as waiting in the line for kumali before it opened
“Love a good camel” 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Watching you guys on Pterodactyl made me litteral dizzy.
For the rest a great family park where kids have just as much fun as they would have on their bigger brothers and sisters like Disney and Efteling. 29 entrance fee (34,5 euro) for so many good rides and less waiting time than mentioned parks.

You are in a very winging mood Shawn
We’re always honest in our videos and like to share the full experience of our day!
I have read online that flip flop might be reopening in summer as they failed to sell it. Really hope I can get back on this ride. I really enjoyed the water features and theming. Would be good to have this thrill ride open again!
I found it funny when Charlotte was screaming on the ride at 53:18
Good to see Flamingoland back on the up!
It is indeed!

Obviously not a hero fan. 😂😂😂 loved the video.
It’s awful! Thanks for watching!
The worst dark ride in the Uk is at Gulliver’s Warrington, the princess ride, that’s an absolute shocker.
Good seeing u today Shawn can’t wait to see more progress in the Chanel
Need to get myself to flamingo land.
For hero alone. 🧐
Thanks for the vlog!
Thanks for watching!
Shawn - taking one for the team yet again.......
Thanks for watching!
I am here right now and flip flop is open!
I love Kumali its a cracking ride
Shawn and Charlotte both love riding the filthy riders
Noooo can't get rid of mischief mansion 😂 it was my first ever "ghost" train I was too scared to ride the one in Blackpool as a kid ha
Sean when you next go to light water valley I highly recommend you the forbidden corner down the road from light water valley its a beautiful mythical adventure I highly recommend i hope you read this recommendation thank you
Our vlog from Lightwater Valley is on the way tomorrow! We’ll have to check that out on another visit!
I’m going to be going Flamingo Land with my Family in July I can’t waittt!!!
Wow! I hope you enjoyed flamingo land, keep up with the great content!
Thank you!

I havent been flamingo land but i am exited to go soon in the summer hopefully ready for the opening of the 10 inversion roller coaster :)
It’ll be a great addition to the park
@@ThemeParkWorldwide I agree
looking forward to the new coaster
We can’t wait!
I been on infusion in Blackpool its my favourite ride ever
Great vlog this park looks so nice in the sun shine
It does indeed!
Yess been waiting for 2 days for this yessss !!!!!!!
Enjoy!
Hey love the videos and would definitely recommend the swimming pool there
Good to see the old high Sierra ride from my local park the American adventure is still in operation it doing well it ran for the full 20 seasons the aa was open bet u rode it when you visited when you was young
It is indeed! I used to love AA so much!
Great Vlog as always Shawn and Charlotte
Thanks!
@@ThemeParkWorldwide you’re welcome
If they just sped up that mystery manor ride and added louder audio/lighting it would be a fab asset to the park.
It would be much better with a full refurbishment!
thanks for another great vlog from one of my two local parks shawnand charlotte, love the "get me to cooplands bakery" comment xD, definatly a plus considering the price of some theme park food across the uk. However last time I rode the dreaded HERO, I acutally got a bruised shoulder and was in pain all day absolutly disgusting ride -.-
The bakery is absolutely amazing and more parks definitely need one! Hero is absolutely awful!
Hero was my first rollercoaster that went upside down aswell 😂🤮 the crazy mouse was alot better 😂
Bring back the mouse!
Hey shaun and Charlotte. Check out Ankapark, it has a coaster with the exact layout as the new flamingo land coaster.
Shame Ankapark has now closed down.
I’ve seen that park before and would of liked to of visited!
I stand with you on your opinions on hero. Get rid of it and put a nice flat in😂or a small scale family thrill like a intamin pipeline
I really love Mumbo Jumbo
Flip Flop and Navigator are both back open now!
I've not been to Flamingo Land for a few years I think I will definitely take a trip when the new coaster opens though, that will mean Alton Towers and Flamingo Land this Summer....already got my Alton Towers booked!
It’s definitely worth a visit!
I see TPW Logoed Ponchos coming in the future:)
Just got back yesterday I thought I spotted u and I did
Flamingo land could easily be the best park in the uk if it gets more rides here and flat rides I think but Funny happy guy this kid and his head is funny too a bit like a spitting image character off tele from years back but he's definitely the best coaster man on RUclips I enjoy watching Alton towers for me on the 5th cant wait
When in Yorkshire it has to be Coopland's not Greg's. They are £1.20 in high Street shops so not to much of a mark up.
Absolutely love Cooplands!

Question for you Shawn. Have you ever been on a ride that has ever broke down when your on it and have you ever got stuck on a ride.
I have indeed. I’ve also had quite a few evacuations over the years!
@@ThemeParkWorldwide haha oh lord😂 What did you think of being evacuated. I work at a theme park so see them happen weekly😂 loade of people enjoy being evacuated from height which I find odd
Been waiting for the Intamin 10 Looper, or possibly, Sik! Beautiful colour theming in my opinion!
Are you going to flamingo land any time between the 18th and the 25th on aug? 2023 by the way
I keep costing up a trip from Portsmouth to hit skegness and flamingo land and every time I end up at a European park instead. I will get there one day though.
If Blackpool were to get rid of Ice Blast, I hope we would get a shot and drop tower as I love the view from Ice Blast, it's just a little weak.
Do you know that flamingo land only got flamingos 2 years ago😂
The 10 inversion coaster needs Deca in the name.
Hey Shawn did you ever ride Magnum Force (Quimera) when it was at Flamingo Land?
I remember being on holiday there when I was young before I was an enthusiast and doing like 3 rides on it, so intense haha.
I did indeed. Such an intense experience!
That looks like a very nice place to visit ! xx
It’s certainly improved this year
Great vid. Keep up the good work!
Thank you!
She couldn’t wait to ride it 🤣
Awesome vlog. You looked in pain coming off Hero. Poor Charlotte though on the end.
It was awful as always. Thanks for watching!
The dark ride has the same music as spooky 3D at Oakwood, they both need removing though.
Bounce has reopened down in Oakwood!
It is!
Looks improved from last years vlog.
Flamingo land use to have such a great haunted house you go in a elevator and then the door would swing open and someone would run in with a knife. Shame they closed it. Also magnum force was a great ride.
I remember that, it was brilliant. Its a tea room now 😭
We're going to flamingo land in a couple of days and staying for 4 nights, I've been telling my 8 year old daughter about the mischief mansion, but am I right in thinking that the frankenstein used to go up and down on the toilet? Does it not do that anymore?
Have fun! I’m not too sure on that one?
