- Marcus Leshock of WGN Morning News in Chicago gets a rare DOUBLE ROLLBACK on Top Thrill Dragster roller coaster at Cedar Point. The ride was renamed "Top Thrill Cubster" for opening weekend in 2017, after the park lost a bet when the Cubs beat the Indians in the World Series. #CoastinTheCountry

Marcus Leshock got a double rollback and i can't even get a text back .
*insecurity intensifys*
Lol
That's because you communicate via text for everything and the rest of the world has grown up.
Same
Oooh that’s pretty good
You know there was one person that was pressured to ride this and was dying on the inside
I was wondering about that, after a roll back do you have option of getting off the ride if you wanted to?
pdxmark77
Probably not, unless you asked the attendant if you could.
That would be me lmao
Dr. Whiskers 2 that literally me I’m always forced to ride a scary ass ride and cry on it lol
I always get convinced to do it *just once*. And then the tears come...
This guy’s reaction is how you should react to a roll back. His reaction made my day.
er no, it's call way over reacting!
He was beyond annoying.
@@leonsroka8281 say that when you ride it. If you frequent cedar point then you know the rollback is like every cedar point fans dream
@@Nx553 Then why is everyone else on the ride chill and enjoying it. Society sets the range for 'normal'. So if everyone on that ride is acting a certain way, or within reason to one another, but his reaction is above and beyond the rest, he is thus "over reacting". Anyone sitting next to him or near him, especially me, could and should be pissed off. I find it hard to enjoy a ride when you have that 1 person 'excessively' yelling, screaming, or being abnormally loud and hurting my ears and taking away from the enjoyment and I think most people agree. This dude was annoying ass fuck. And all those people that had the luck of getting 2 rollbacks now have the experience ruined by some asshole that wants to look cool for the camera.
@@rccoh777 1) it ain't that deep my guy....
2) during the actual ride you can't hear shit cuz how fast it goes.
3) let people enjoy things, ffs.
Its insanely rare to get just 1 rollback, that's amazing to get a double rollback. Lucky!
There's a good chance they're doing it earlier in the day, from what I've heard, when they start up the ride, the computers need to calibrate themselves to give _just_ enough speed to go over the top. It's especially tricky since the required speed varies depending on their weight. Odds are that the computer was still calibrating when they rode it.
Unlike kingda ka, rollbacks on top thrill dragster are common. There are at least three to four rollbacks on dragster a day. But it is rare to get two in a row.
@@notfromanywhere this isn't Top Thrill Dragster. This is it's little brother Cubster.
@@mcrchickenluvr the description points out that they changed the name when they lost a bet
ENCHANTMEN, no it’s just because the coaster needs time to warm up, like how enthusiasts will say, i don’t think I got a good ride on phenolic because it wasn’t warmed up, even thought that coaster doesnt have anlaunch
Imagine being the next to ride and you see a double rollback.
Emoticono13 I would be sooooo jealous of them
@@brokengadget3586 definitely
Happened to me when I went in May of 2018. Rolled back twice while my gf and I went on it again on our second day of visiting right around when Steel Vengeance opened up. Unfortunately the lines for Vengeance were extremely long (8-12 hour wait times) we did enjoy every other ride with a fast pass though.
Broken Gadget same
Emoticono13 I would be wishing I was on that train
that's not fair!!! I've been trying to get a roll back for years
Me too!
Try riding first thing in the morning on a cold day. When coaster rails are cold, it's much more likely to rollback.
Chef T313 I've been to Cedar Point so many times and I have never ridden this ride. Every time I go there, It's always been closed or too long of a line. Just my luck.
Ludicrous Shows that whomps. it is a good ride. it's over too fast for me. I wish it had a second hill like kingda ka
Chef T313 same here I hope there is one when I go on Thursday
I got pressured into riding this for the first time in 2006, it had rained earlier that night and we got a double rollback. I had the time of my life and stopped being a wuss when it came to coasters. Truly a euphoric experience.
😭
it's all fun and games til the kart disconects and you go flying straight to the moon
@@owoberon4947 i say things like this right before the ride starts
@@AlejandroLomelin Fr and it makes all the people rethink their decisions if they got pressured
Lolll
I've played enough roller coaster tycoon to be terrified that the coaster would fly backwards into the station at mach speed and explode in a fiery inferno killing everyone onboard
Lmao
I also had that issue at my theme parks.
You mean it's not meant to do that?
@@greycarton Lol this type of ride wasn't in the Roller Coaster Tycoon games until the 3rd one. Naturally being a 20 year old computer game, tragedy often struck when coaster trains collided and such.
Top Thrill Dragster is 100% designed for rollbacks because it has to be. They are more common in the cold weather or early in the morning, especially when the trains don't have many riders. The lack of momentum sometimes isn't enough to go over the top hat. That's why all of those brakes go down before the launch, they are there to slow down the train in the case of a rollback so they pop back up after the train clears the launch track. If it happens, the system resets and relaunches the train a little bit faster to help it clear the top hat. Having it happen twice in a row like this is rare though and it looks like a cold day based on their coats! This coaster is basically "too safe" with all of it's sensors which is why it sees a good amount of down time. So no worries, a rollback is cool because you get to experience the launch again let alone go backwards down the tower. Most people don't get to experience that.
@@mhtube01 r/wooooosh
Literally, the best ride experience you could ever hope for, a double rollback followed by a full circuit.
i would have been afraid they would say it was broken and you had to get out.
And front row!
0:51 He Sounded Like Toad From Super Mario 😂😂😂
MJ Plays Holy cow yes he does!!!
MJ Plays 😂😂
Yea he does lol
LMFAO
I’m supposed to be in bed right now
But I laughed so hard that I woke my parents up
I worked at cedar point the year this ride opened, and I use to drive in in the morning and see how many times the coaster would actually make it over when they were testing it. Seeing it roll back twice with riders is really crazy.
Man sometimes I really wonder if the rollbacks are supposed to actually be apart of the ride 🤔
@@MrMonsterJamFan Top Thrill 2 babyyyyy
I'm so glad I got to know that the rollbacks are safe, because if I ever went on this ride and it did that, I'd be giving off my last players and waiting for instant death lmfao
How can he even talk with that stomach feeling 😂
Junior _NL that’s what I’m saying 😂😂
Its called a g-force
How can he talk, put his hands in the air, and end up conscious? 😂 I will never understand how people can stand the feeling.
JG 1969 because you’re a pissie
@@JG-xh5bp when you yell it helps out a lot its just an adrenaline rush really if ya think about it
I just imagine the people at Intamin are watching the live cams going:
"Hey, watch this."
*Clicks 'reduce target to 115mph' *
Lmao
Jeremy Clarkson as ride Operator:
"neeed more poooowwwerr" 😁
the ride actualy controls the speed automaticly, it apperes it messed up here as generaly after a rollback it increaces power by quite a bit
@@jimskywaker4345 probably from cold weather.
Fun fact: my first time riding this ride was a rollback. It’s a pretty uncommon thing, especially on a first ride. I remember telling my dad ‘is this supposed to happen’ it was super scary but fun. I still love roller coasters and I rode it again the next chance I could.
Why people enjoy rollbacks so much is that you basically have a new experience and also get to ride it again
Exactly, he technically rode this two times without taking the line again lol
@@MariaLuiza-tp2dc actually three times
and they are extremely rare!
@@funtimenotalongtime6122 i think he/she means a rollback counts as half so 2 times
@studio732jrl2 damn bro why cant we just keep it simple?
Walmart has more rollbacks then this thing
Team Agent XD IM DEAD
You sir earned yourself a medal for that one XD
Team Agent stolen joke
Team Agent no it's the other way around
But ya I've heard this before
I honestly forgot when they renamed the cars and ride to top thrill cubster. Thanks for this memory
"Alright so I'm with Angela, Angela how are you?"
"Hi, I'm-"
"Alright we are on the Top Thrill Cubster...."
Didn't even give her a chance
Aoirsae I’m DYING 😂😂😂
Did not catch it at first but LMFAOOOO
LOLLL
😂😂😂
😭😭😭😭😭
One of his screams sounded like the chicken from Moana lol
Lol yes! The 3rd scream!
Double rollback all the way across the sky (so intense!)
KingRCT3 WHAT DOES IT MEAN!!!??!?
Don't you know the song "Double Rainbow all the way across the sky"? :D Look it up!
KingRCT3 I thought you were referring to the double rainbow guy 😂
Oh yeah you were quoting him, dang I missed the joke! Sorry x) But yeah that's the same thing, the song is a remix of his video! :D
RIP
My right ear enjoyed the vid
Pretty much
“I’m with Angela, Angela how are ya, *cuts her off* Alright we in the Top Thrill Cubster 😂😂😂
Lolllllllllll
This is on my top of the list for most wanted credits, and even more is to experience a rollback! Two in a row would be epic!
Top thrill 2
"It's like winning game 7 all over again."
They got lucky. That rain delay killed the Tribe's momentum.
That's a lot of luck to come back from a 3-1 series deficit.
Oof lucky i never even got ride it yet
gotta love cubs fan still holding on to a championship from 6 years ago because they have nothing else to cheer because they went right back to being shit
Wowww. Been waiting for a rollback for 17 years and these guys got it twice. Unreal.
That would be so awesome to get three launches for the wait time of one. Going to miss this ride.
I love that the woman next to him was so excited too even if she was more low key about it
I rode the top thrill dragster and it also rolled back when I did it
MTB Sam lucky
MTB Sam you got lucky
MTB Sam not so lucky for me
I: so many gp “the top thrill dragster”
MTB Sam wtf... I’m sad now because they didn’t do that when I rode it but I’m kinda glad it didn’t because the ride scared me shitless
Best part @ 1:41 - this ride is just INSAAAAANE! WOOOOOOAAAAAAAAHHHHH! lol
And also "Are we going? NOOOO!!"
This happened to me during their Halloween celebration. The line was almost 4 hours long due to the high winds.
and you waited 4 hours... you must really not enjoy life
my favorite ride! i have rode this ride exactly 12 times! i live less than an 1 away from cedar point and i’m just seeing this video i’m 2022 😂 (i went today and yesterday!) i love how the iron dragon is just there all alone haha
I stand by my original comment. His reaction was amazing. So lucky!
When you’re in the queue and you’re next on and you see this
*We were on the verge of greatness. We were this close.*
I had a Rollback a few years ago. I couldn't speak because of shock, then ended up in tears and clapping because of the excitement. It was my first time at Cedar Point so thank you Dragster for making it even more memorable. I was there to ride Millennium, but that added to the unforgettable day.
getting even one rollback is on my bucket list for this ride. getting a double is just awesome
not going to happen ever they closed it and removed the launch. Cedar Point is the devil
@@ArticruciA yeah ik i’m super sad abt it. RIP Top Thrill Dragster 😢
That was pretty damn awesome, I wish I was riding that one.
Man I would KILL for a double rollback! One of the best rides there, but gotta say Millennium Force is still a more "complete" coaster. Steel Vengeance is legit though, couldn't stop laughing it was so nuts. Raptor, however, will always be my first love. They quieted it down this year which stinks, you used to be able to hear it roaring all the way across the park.
1:42 this ride is just INSAAAAAAAAAAAANE!
😂😂😂
I rode this the year it opened. When I saw it roll back I was super nervous because I thought the ride was broken. Seeing this now makes me wish I'd gotten a rollback now.
soooo insanely lucky wow. truly a dream, can’t wait til parks are open again
Imagine this being someone’s first rollercoaster. 🥲
Lol, although, I definitely wouldn’t start on something a lot smaller than this as my first coaster.
I Love Your Laugh 😂 Got Me Over Here Literally Crying In Tears 😭
I love the sound it makes breaking the cars coming back from a rollback.
Whhhhoooooossssssseeeeee
This officially classifies this as an triple launch coaster right?
I had a triple rollback on Wicked at Lagoon. It was awesome actually
i love these ppls energy
his reaction really just made my entire day 😂😂
Got a rollback for first time last Sunday. The train was only half filled since it was an extreme dead day (there were supposed to be severe storms all day but it only rained from like 9:30 to 11:00 in the morning and then it was beautiful outside all the way to closing). The noobs who wanted front seat refused to sit in the empty seats and they missed it lol. They were so upset! It made me laugh so hard. Ours just barely rolled back too because it stopped at the top for several long seconds before rolling back. Once the brakes stopped it, it took a million years to slowly roll backwards all the way to the station. I wonder if they did the rollback on purpose. I do know they can, and the way they asked the people in line for front seat if they wanted to get on right then was very suspicious. They said, "Does anyone want to get on the purple train RIGHT... NOW...?" Have been dreaming of a rollback forever and never thought I would ever get one. It was so great! I love it!! It still feels unreal!!!
This is like winning the Lottery twice in your lifetime ( ;
this dudes reactions got me crying
This happened to my cousin and I once! It was seriously the best. It's pretty sweet that they actually include it on the new version!
Shouldn't this video be called "Top Thrill Cubster Double Roll Back"???!
That is the name of the train there in
not many people would understand
The Flip no they had a bet and had to name it to thrill cubster for a weekend
The Flip Go tribe
The Flip no cause that's not the real name of the ride for some dumb reason they changed it to cubster
this is my D R E A M
rainbow sparklez not mine oh heck NO
I saw it go backwards in real life once!
Aim bigger Lil boy
I’m 10 and yesterday we went to cedar point, I was forced to get on 😂😂
I loveeee this ride! Totally worth the wait!!!
His screaming made my day!
Only I realized that when the cart returned to the launch section, the last two seats were empty? And in the first Rollback they were busy
Tbh, I am sure a few people aren't desperate to ride in the first place! After one shot, they sure as hell don't want the second or third!!!
@@leehughes9341 Two rows in the back leaving the ride after two launches? My guess would be they were kicked off the ride due to weight reasons.
@@duderRechthat Actually more weight gives it more momentum and helps it make it over the top. In fact, there's a "launch boost" function that must be used when launching it empty, to keep it from rolling back.
I watched this thing go probably 20 times before I rode it I was completely terrified of it going back down the hill but when I finally did get talked into it someone said you wont even have time to get scared and they were right as soon as the light hits green you are gone and at the top of the hill before you can get scared I rode it 2 more times after one of the best rides I ever experienced
You are so lucky. I've been on this dozens of times and can't get one rollback let alone two! Wow!
This is the kind of excitement coaster designers think they’ll be getting out of the riders when they’re designing them
if a rollback happened to me,I'd freak out of my mind thinking something very bad happened to the ride.
*gets stuck at top*
That actually happend once
@@greycarton It has been known to get stuck at the top, and they have a really high tech solution for when it happens. Someone climbs the maintenance ladder to the top and gives the coaster a good hard shove. I'm not making this up, they really do. 🤣
i would shit my self if i had a double rollback on a ride
cruiseshipboy3002 exactly i would totally want off.
same!
cruiseshipboy3002 i went today and i didnt even wanna go down forwards i would fucking die if we went backwards twice holy fuck
I would fucking yell with happiness.
Not the second time, there wouldn't be anything left in you to shit out.
I was in line for Pipe Scream, a little ride, one time, and me and my friends dream was to see Top Thrill Dragster go backwards. So we were all patiently waiting for our ride, and suddenly I hear Top Thrill take off. My friend looks back at it and all of a sudden, he yells, “TOP THRILL DRAGSTER’S GOING BACKWARDS!” The whole line is startled as they quickly turn around and see the car slow at the top, and fall back. It was one of my best experiences at that park EVER. Despite its failure we did go on Top Thrill Dragster later that day and it was a success. Also one of the best rides in the park! So yeah, don’t be scared of that one, it only falls backward every one in FIVE HUNDRED RIDES, so I recommend you give it a try!
True story by the way.
You honestly made that look so fun I want to ride a roller coaster now
2:00 You notice how the back two cars aren't filled ; ) They got rollbacks because it was a cold morning. I have one rollback. I didn't scream like a little girl. It feels like your back's going thru the seat. It's very smooth. The second time they launched us without sound effects. Just the zip of the cable. Pretty cool.
3 awesome launches
I dream of that reverse feeling. Only had it on lightning loops when it goes backwards... damn
You can get the rollback feeling on the Wicked Twister but it’s supposed to do that so it probably wouldn’t be as cool.
His scream is amazing every time 😂
Had to be the best dragster ride ever!
When you think about it it's interesting how much rollercoasters rely on momentum and kinetic/potential energy.
Rip fellow head phone users
My AirPods are messed up 😨
I've been apart of a roll back but never the lucky double rollback three shotter!!! How fun!
I miss this ride so much
0:35 my scream when I step on a lego
Lmfao
"angela how are you"
"hi!"
"alright"
“ this ride is just.. INSAAAANE!”
That’s awesome haha everyone was so stoked when it when back lol
Him: Yes yes
The ride system: NoNoNoNo
Curse of the Billygoat was moved to Top Thrill Dragster.
Marcus:WE MADE IT!
The cart:Aight. Ima head out.
My analysis - to create a rollback - you set the launch max speed at Top Thrill less than the full circuit so when the train cars rocket up on that first part of the climb, it actually stops just before the apex of the arch at the top, and then gravity takes over and the train cars drop backwards. Safety mechanisms brake the cars just before the starting line area to avoid collisions with other car groups.
Keenly, this was inspired by Great America's "Tidal Wave" shuttle rollercoaster, which launches you into a loop and then a vert up with a freeze, and then you go backwards doing that loop again backwards into a straightaway into another vert up with a freeze (in the other direction), and then you go back down on the straightaway and that's it.
So seeing the Tidal Wave coaster myself gave me an example of how rollbacks in rollercoasters work.
Very sad that the "Tidal Wave" coaster was dismantled. We will miss that coaster.
When you look at the ride: ok it looks like it will end quick
When you go on it: *10 years later and still going down a deep slope*
It’s only 17 seconds.
@@eastharbor11 wow u must be fun at parties
*Sends Cart going*
*Fails*
*Tries again*
*Fails*
*Third Time’s a charm*
I rode this front seat by myself and it was amazing!
It’s funny That this popped on my feed I was in this ride last night it was a blast
So yea gp, if you get a rollback you don't crash into another "cart"
JizzleTheFrizzle the next train won't enter the station until the first one hits the breaks at the end
Yeah GP/non coaster enthusiasts learn coaster safety
@@pk_lo4638 you mean the launch section, because the station is where a train is loaded
@@pk_lo4638 no, the rollback brakes stop it before the station
IIRC it has 2 block sections outside the station, one after brake run and one before station, don't quote me but it does have at least one section that is from launch to after coming back down.
*TOP THRILL CUBSTER*
That was AWESOME!
Love the ride. Love the cubs hoodie, so I guess I love the video.
The first rollback was like losing the 1945 World Series.
The second rollback was like losing the 2003 NLCS.
When they made it over, it was like winning the 2016 World Series all over again.
YES. Maybe my favorite comment ever.
cedar point does this sometimes for press. they can make it rollback on purpose. two times though I think not
I have seen it happen when its been windy! I was so close and was next on to get a roll back myself but management came over and closed the ride after multiple attempts of it not making it over.
I came here just to comment that
they actually can. that’s the power of a ride such as that
It rolled back three times yesterday when I went, I was shook
I've seen double rollbacks before. Doesn't mean this one isn't staged, just that it isn't necessarily stages.
You are truly blessed.
This man’s laugh is precious
The line is the only scary part
they were lucky
they got 3 launches and 2 rollbacks
Love this ride 🤩
You, sir, have the reaction for which all others should strive
The caption should say...."when your Man screams more than you DO😃🤣
Hahaha funny fun
Imagine the people in the line right behind them...
just a man enjoying his rollback
the worker was like I AM GOING TO CRANK UP THE SPEED
