- This is a tribute video for the Demon Rollercoaster that opened in 1992 at Australia's Wonderland, Sydney. The park has since closed.
The video includes the "To Hell and Back" commercial and also some very cool on-board images.
Thanks to Brendan Kai and Wonderbuzz for making this video and uploading it to www.wonderlandhistory.net/ for all to see. Развлечения
Best Ride Ever! I went on that ride so many times and never got sick of it!
awesome footage and well pit together video! i loved this ride up until the last time i went to wonderland in 2004
i miss it!!
They're right - I'll always remember!
Watching that brought back all my memories of riding The Demon again and again when I was younger. I can't believe they let The Demon be sold off to a Malaysian theme park! If only Dreamworld had bought it like they bought The Big Dipper from Luna Park... even if they changed the name, we'd still have the ride in Australia! I miss Wonderland so much, but The Demon was by far my favorite ride :o)
Thanks for posting!
Loved this ride! Especially in reverse. Oh I miss wonderland :((
I remember the tree at the start of the queue before you go in - everyone stuck their chewing gum all over it! You must have amnesia you tool!
Awesome tribute by the way to the creator of this - brought back memories. Nice one!
I remeber going on this when we went there for our year 8 physics class.
I remember going on this, was heaps little though
I loved this ride so much lol
I loved that ad.
I miss wonderland too. The only thing we have left is these videos, photos and our memories. Such a shame it went. A new road on the industrial estate on the site is called Wonderland Drive. Thats the only thing left in the area to know it was even there.
This ride is all over the world. Many theme parks have it and they're exactly the same as Demon, just called something different. I was too young to go on this ride when I went to Wonderland but luckily (or unluckily) a few years ago I was able to ride 'Boomerang' at Knott's Berry Farm in California.
I loved Wonderland. I'm sad it's gone. One time, my friends and I were on the last Demon ride of the day, we click-clacked up to the initial drop point, and the ride got stuck. After a couple of minutes someone on a loudspeaker said there had been a malfunction. We joked around for a bit, but after 10 or so minutes we started getting worried. Then, with no warning, we dropped. I swear you could have heard me screaming in Katoomba! It was awesome! Too bad it was turned into a 'business park'.
for all yall who miss this ride there are 45 exact copies still operating in the world today.
This ride was part of the Expo in 1988 in Queensland, After the Expo Wonderland got their hand on the ride and made it the Demon @ Wonderland
I Meenie The Mite was drawn by one of the commercial artist from Wonderland in the 90's.... Meenie's birth place...
yeah, i miss it big time, best fun park ever, had wet and dry all in one park.
this used to be my most favourite ride and theme park ever! too bad they closed it...
My Dad took me with him on this ride as a 13 yr old in 1994 and I WAS AS SCARED AS HELL!
RIP WONDERLAND
that is/was an awesome ride
I still remember going on it as a 12 yr.
The longest 60 sec of my life.😬😜
Demon! Wish I could ride again! Omg!
It never actually arrived to Melbourne.... They couldn't get the council approval to install the ride because of two reasons, their safety record was pretty shocking at the time(the fire in the River Caves, the infamous Scenic Railway derailment, etc), and the council believed the ride would be too loud and tall. Not to mention it's pretty difficult to construct a proper thrill ride at the park due to how disruptive it would be to get the parts from the Maintenance gate to the front section.
i loved wonderland it was an ausssie icon i use to go every second weekend cos we had a family pass but i never went on the demon also when it closed on april 2004 my dad took us there for one last time but it closed the day before so we had to go to luna park which sucks
i miss this place:(
Correction - an American theme park now has The Demon. Re-named "Zoomerang". Ick! They should never have allowed it to leave the country!
I miss wonderland!!! It the best park in sydney!
it was good for me because it was only a 5 minute drive
now its filled with factories and distribution centers
I was either too young or too scared to ride this! I used to love the bush beast tho
MrBibi86 lol found the bush beast mor freakier then the demon bush beast felt like it was falling apart
yes im looking up for the advert of this coaster was on RUclips years ago doh what happened!!!!!!; (
It has since been repainted from the green and yellow. Its now blue and purple with large metalic flakes in the paint so it shines in the sun. Plus with the newer trains it goes faster and does more G's. But Zoomerang is not stupid the rides real name is Boomerang not to much of stretch.
lmaaaooooo...
wow that's a strange flashback!!
*sigh*
this was my frist coaster :'( that was a cool one
i remember that tree!! :)
i remember my parents goin on this ride years ago in like 2003 or sumfin
i think i still got a drink bottle from this ride
i was 2 young at the time but about 2 months ago i went 2 america an went on Boomerang wich is same AN IT WAS FUCKING SICK!!!!!! =DDD
i remember back then wen it was my sisters b-day at the april 14th 2004 tickets were crazy cheap 15bucks i think

demon took 90 seconds to complete
it closed cos the aussie owner sold it to an asian who jacked up the prices so not as many could go cos it was expensive due to loss of customers many rides couldnt be repaired and sadly it was closed in april 2004 R.I.P wonderland
Thats the bat called in canada`s wonderland!!!!!!!!
@LiteracyLabyrinth do you expect anything else from the yanks
maybe. not sure
The worst part was when it went backwards!
@spincityfunfair Deffinatly Dont deserve and @holly02391 they arnt gonna rebuild it they are building wet n wild around there. Heaps sad its gone just like old Sydney Town. *sigh* I miss those times
This isn't from Wonderland. Wonderland's rollercoasters were made of wood and didn't go upside-down at all.
Your wrong because i actually went to wonderland and went on this ride
