This is why Theme park worldwide is so good, you show different parks for us to want to visit. You go to so many different parks and ride so many different coasters. UK parks are so boring compared to what Europe has to offer. Thanks Shawn x
begin of vlog still remembers me on my own experiences of visiting Kolmarden for first time and the long way all through the park to ride on this great coaster.
I said this when Wildfire was first announced and we saw the first concept video, and seeing the real thing confirms it - this really looks like my ideal coaster! Beautiful location and views, terrain-based, trees and rocks, magnificent looking structure, good theme, good layout with decent length, explorative (feels like you're actually going off on an adventure through the landscape rather than just the whole coaster being bunched up in one small plot of land), and from the sounds of it a really excellent ride too! Trip to Sweden to do all those three parks very much on the cards for whenever I can afford it...
The first inversion on Wildfire is called a zero-g stall. There is also one on Twisted Colossus on the green side and also the very first stall on Goliath at my home park, Six Flags Great America.
Increideble .... I hope they put some orange and red lights at night time along the ride ... That would make it truly look like you were going through a wildfire
Only started watching theme park worldwide for a month but it has put all the other youtubers i watch on the backburner! Absolutley love it keep up the good work! X
Hi Shawn, just thought I'd drop a comment on your channel. There's some excellent content on here and I think your shows are incredibly well made. I've been lurking since the Sanbrooke Productions days - I was back then a nerd when it came to coasters, with an absolute burning desire from then on to go to Cedar Park (on that note, when are you going!?). Your channel certainly helps me forget that I work in finance in London! On that note, my number 1 is also a woody and one you'll approve of, I was fortunate enough to ride the Coney Island Cyclone this summer! If you need a substitute vlogstar for New York... Regardless, in the event you set up a patreon I'll certainly contribute. Dave
I can‘t really see this being the best coaster in Europe. It‘s my personal number 3 behind Taron and Helix. For me, it felt really slow during the second half and the elements didn‘t really do the trick aside from the outside banked turn. Still an amazing ride, just not nearly as intense/fun as I expected.
I love a twisty coaster, and this one looks promising! Great vlog as always, been busy but I’m going back to all the vlogs I missed! What a beautiful park.
If wildfire was classified as a familycoaster i hope more family parks in Europe get a RMC and this parc has got to have the most natural enclosures ever.Realy nice vlog :-)
I'm scared about the new credits I get to ride next year, currently my top coaster is the swarm at Thorpe park especially on the back left hand outside seat (the first flip over side). Taro , Hyperspace Mpuntain, black mamba and fly are the main big coasters for me along with a few more UK coasters. Who knows I may reach 100 coasters. A highlight from this season so far.....300 rides at Thorpe park
Wildfire looks like an incredible ride, but it just makes me get more frustrated with the current state of UK parks, particularly Merlin's. This is a relatively unknown wildlife park in a relatively small country but they have built a world class ride. Merlin, I believe is one of the biggest theme park operators in the world, and all we get are half baked ideas like Rita, 13, and even SW8 to a degree. Don't get me wrong, Rita is a fun enough speed run, and SW8 is also looking like it could be a fun, but yet again, short ride (although I could really do without yet another doom and gloom themed coaster), but the less said about 13 the better, ha ha! (Sorry, I know some people love 13, but I just found it a huge disappointment), but with their size and deep pockets, they should be building rides like Wildfire. I know this sounds like a rant against Merlin (well it actually is), and to be fair they have built some awesome rides in the past (Nemesis, Oblivion, even Stealth, which I love), and I know there are some ridiculous restrictions put on them by outside forces, but even taking that into account, there are so many smaller, less visited parks, around the world that just seem to make so much more effort in their rides and theming as Shaun has shown in many of his videos, including this one.
I agree with you, Merlin should be able to put in more world class attractions, but I love 13! And Merlin didn't build Rita, DIC did! SW8, while it looks like a family coaster, I reckon that it'll pack a punch when it's open. The parks I believe need a better look at are Chessington and Legoland, which I believe they are finally beginning to do!
Yeah fair point about Rita, you're right it wasn't actually Merlin involved, but then again I did also stupidly credit them with building some of the best rides at Alton, but in my defence It was getting late and Id had a drink, lol! But the point I was trying to make still stands, Merlin (and to some degree the parks previous owners) are big players in the industry, but are constantly outclassed by much smaller parks with much smaller budgets. Hopefully Thorpe's next coaster will be something to wow us, and outside of Merlin Icon at Blackpool is certainly looking good, and maybe even Adventure Island (my home park) will put in another bigger ride, after the success they have had with Rage!
Thanks. Really enjoy your videos, showing us parks that we might not have ever heard off, and obviously all the big ones we have. Have to admit, a bit jealous of being able to visit all these places that I'll probably never get to, but I have got one on ya, yes I've been to Cedar Point! lol
I think the theme parks in the UK are erring on the cautious side with safety being paramount rather than pushing the boundaries. Looking forward to Icon.
Man, you love wildfire so much, you’d really love the topper track RMCs in America. Outlaw Run and Lightning Rod are pretty much all of the best qualities of Wildfire plus a few unique and crazy elements minus the slow spots that Wildfire has. They’re incredibly intense rides. So much so that I absolutely cannot re ride them even though I really want to lol.
I believe where RMC will make there mark is with the single rail and inline trains. This is what I am waiting to ride. This looks to me like, "Not for the Faint of Heart"!
great looking park, I guess it's even better now. so where is wildfire in your top coasters now? how long did it hold onto that coveted top spot? knowing you've now done over 1000 coasters it must take something extra special to be at no1.
I feel like this park could rival cedar point in size. From what I heard if you walked from the toll booth to the front gate and made one loop around and back out it is a 5K
Oh man I knooooow I’m so hyped to get on there, CP was my home park all my life until I moved out of Ohio and I haven’t been back in quite a while, last time I was there it was for the opening of maverick, I can’t believe it’s been that long but I’m definitely making the pilgrimage for the occasion, they really delivered on taking out the trash at CP. I don’t even usually enjoy woodies buuuuut Steel Vengeance looks like it’s gonna change my mind in the best way.
Hi I'm visiting Kålmorden tomorrow any tips on how to get as much experience as you can in 1 day there. I wanna see everything there like the animals and the shows but i want some time on the rollercoasters too.
Oh Kalmarden I haven't been there for years, this video makes me think I need to go back soon ;) What do you do to get time off to go to these theme parks? I need more annual leave haha!

Wildfire looks awesome 🎢😉 Shawns bottle going when he thought a bear was attacking was priceless 🐻😂😂🤣🤣😂😂🤣🤣

Agreed, the ride is perfect and the location for it is gorgeous!
The first inversion on Wildfire is called a zero-g stall. There is also one on Twisted Colossus on the green side and also the very first stall on Goliath at my home park, Six Flags Great America.
I really think Thorpe would benefit greatly from an RMC and a B&M hyper and when that gets done a new entrance.
Increideble .... I hope they put some orange and red lights at night time along the ride ... That would make it truly look like you were going through a wildfire
What an awesome park. That coaster is awesome. Such Specticullar views.
Only started watching theme park worldwide for a month but it has put all the other youtubers i watch on the backburner! Absolutley love it keep up the good work! X
Thank you Georgia, we're glad you enjoy it!
Shawn its called a Zero-G stall and has only been used on RMC coasters
Thank you, I later found this out from the techie!
Your channel is fast becoming one of my favorite channels on RUclips, really loved your park vlogs and your commentary is gold.
Thank you very much!
Nice to see you enjoyed the rest of the stunning park, and not just the coaster!!!!.
It was great
You sounded like John Wardley on Nemesis at 41:36 😂
DigitalDan it even had the "wow" 😂😂
Haha! He so did!
Yeah he did xD
I guess I did!
DigitalDan Isn’t this name a cheat code for RCT3?

Thank you very much!
Stalls are amazing and this coaster (&park) looks masterfully dope.
I'd love to spend the day hanging around with you guys! Well done vlog and really quite professionally done! :-) Greetings from Tim in Phoenix Arizona
Thumbs up for RMC at Efteling in new area with great theme in 2019/2020!
Poor Shammy B, it must be so sad that it's not #1 anymore...
Shammy B
ALL HAIL SHAMMY B :(
Shambhala is a fantastic coaster, this only just topped it for me!
Theme Park Worldwide Getting to do lots next year. I'm doing my second European mega trip, 3rd trip to poor old shammy b and my first trip to Sweden.
Shawn, that element you didn’t know is called a zero G stall
Thank you, I later found that out from a ride staff member
What if Dudley Zoo got an RMC? O_O
Waste all my money on the trip
Yay! Ive been waiting to see of you will get a new #1, Shammy.B ha been your #1 for 5 years know, it was only a matter of time!
I can‘t really see this being the best coaster in Europe. It‘s my personal number 3 behind Taron and Helix.
For me, it felt really slow during the second half and the elements didn‘t really do the trick aside from the outside banked turn.
Still an amazing ride, just not nearly as intense/fun as I expected.
I definitely warms up throughout the day!
Awesome guys, enjoyed this blog.
I love a twisty coaster, and this one looks promising! Great vlog as always, been busy but I’m going back to all the vlogs I missed! What a beautiful park.
Wildfire looks great and a worthy beater of shammy b it looks like you had a great time !!
Great video. Id love to visit this place someday. Wildfire and the cable car safari ride are really amazing.
If wildfire was classified as a familycoaster i hope more family parks in Europe get a RMC and this parc has got to have the most natural enclosures ever.Realy nice vlog :-)
Kolmarden certainly looks an interesting wildlife park and Wild Fire an amazing coaster.
Would you say Grona Lund or Liseberg is nearer to the park?
Grona Lund is closest to the park out of the two, well worth the trip!
Loved the cable car ride, thank you for sharing that
Wildfire looks amazing but gotta tell you the gondola ride through the animal park looks fantastic.
We are huge fans of Longleat safari park and would love them to expand and add a coaster or two like this park has. Great Vlog guys.
You can hear the up stop wheels kicking in on half the ride 😜
Finally getting out there in a couple of weeks to ride wildfire for the first time! So excited
From the footage it doesn't look like a number one, i guess the only way to find out would visit and ride it! :)
It rides so much better than it looks on camera
wow what a beautiful park shawn well done for a great vlog theme park worldwide
This looks like such a nice park, would love to visit this park one day 🎢🦓🦒🦏🐘
You need to go to cedar point next year for steel vengeance.
Rip Shambala #1 2012 - 2017 haha, amazing vlog by the way! :)
Thank you, she had a good run!
Great video :) Wildfire looks amazing. If you had played Hellblad: Senua's Sacrifice 27:40 would freak you out :P

Your in for some great new rides!
hope the rmc in the netherlands next year is gonna be as awesome as wildfire

It looks more like a dive loop that goes normal at the end
Ah yes, Wildfire is my favourite ride so far, even better than flight of the demon
WOW! Beautiful coaster! 😍
Just had a bright idea while seeing the safari, if F.L.Y rides well at Phantasialand then Vekoma could make one here at Kolmarden.
need a usa road trip to cedar point, kings island, carowinds and others ASAP
Stay tuned for details on our 2018 trips soon
Man, you love wildfire so much, you’d really love the topper track RMCs in America. Outlaw Run and Lightning Rod are pretty much all of the best qualities of Wildfire plus a few unique and crazy elements minus the slow spots that Wildfire has. They’re incredibly intense rides. So much so that I absolutely cannot re ride them even though I really want to lol.
The location really adds to this also!
Theme Park Worldwide I’m sure it does! I don’t think there is a better natural setting for any roller coaster operating right now!
Going to ride wildfire for the first time in about 2 weeks, i cannot wait!!!!
Hey! Will you be coming to Australia anytime soon to ride DC Rivals? 😁
I would love to in the future!
Wildfire looks insane! Hope to ride it someday.
Great vlog! Will you be sharing any footage from inside the maintenance building?
We will be indeed, stay tuned tomorrow for that!
Nice vlog . I really need to ride this if it beats Shambala because that ride is amazing.
What do you prefer, a good darkride or a good coaster?
Dark ride!
#wildfire! Great video! been looking forward to this for ages, ever since i saw it on instagram! Keep up the good work!
Thank you!
I believe where RMC will make there mark is with the single rail and inline trains. This is what I am waiting to ride. This looks to me like, "Not for the Faint of Heart"!
Never clicked on a video so quick!
We hope you enjoyed the vlog!
great looking park, I guess it's even better now. so where is wildfire in your top coasters now? how long did it hold onto that coveted top spot? knowing you've now done over 1000 coasters it must take something extra special to be at no1.
It is indeed still up there but Steel Vengeance is my new number 1
Tpw did you know that in the nethetlands in the central station they play efteling music so crime is reduced
Wow Shawn I watch all your videos you are so good 😀😀
Thank you!
i really like your passion, guys!
Thanks!
Would love to visit this one. Apparently this one is the only still open right now!
I believe so!
Great video! Could you do a vlog from mother shipton's cave?
We will have to look into visiting
Fab vlog!! Did you sew up your trousers for day 2???
I had new ones luckily!
Love all your videos. My favourites are Portaventura as I have been there and love the atmosphere there!
Thanks for watching Bethan!
Theme Park Worldwide anytime! I love your videos so so much!
That vekome junior coaster is actually a copy of the one in Plopsaland de panne
Good video
Greetz from the Netherlands🇳🇱
I feel like this park could rival cedar point in size. From what I heard if you walked from the toll booth to the front gate and made one loop around and back out it is a 5K
Steel Vengeance will overtake Wildfire when you visit Cedar Point next year! ;D
i know, steel vengeance looks INTENSE!!!! forget wildfire, steel vengeance iswhere it's at!!!!
MrMagic The location? The Cedar Point peninsula?
XBCPGamer29 heck no think again maverick will forever be best at cedar point!
Oh man I knooooow I’m so hyped to get on there, CP was my home park all my life until I moved out of Ohio and I haven’t been back in quite a while, last time I was there it was for the opening of maverick, I can’t believe it’s been that long but I’m definitely making the pilgrimage for the occasion, they really delivered on taking out the trash at CP. I don’t even usually enjoy woodies buuuuut Steel Vengeance looks like it’s gonna change my mind in the best way.
It does look incredible!
Amazing vlog, enjoyed the overall calm atmosphere of it. So did you enjoy Wildfire? ;)
I loved it!
The first inversion Is a zero g Stall
Just curious you coming to U.S. to ride Steel Vengeance at Cedar Point the best roller coaster in the world.
I look forward to visiting soon!
Do you time travel ? I'm sure it opens in 2018.
You’ll have to do a new top 10 coaster Vlog now !
You know a coaster's good when you split your trousers...
I know, couldn't believe it
Looking back on some classic vlog's, Did Steel Vengeance take over Wild Fire in your No.1 Coaster?
Sure did!
Don't know bout you guys but i think he likes Wildfire.
I love it!
West Midlands Safari Park needs to get an RMC coaster!! 🎢🎡
Shawn sw8 is going to be based on the wicker man what do u think the structure in the middle is I hope there is some fire action
Let's hope so!
You need to go to six flags New England and ride superman and wicked cyclone, both are in my top 10.
I really want to at some point!
going to light water valley soon will be sure to put on youtube so make sure you check it out
wasn't red force your No.1
@theme park worldwide did you do a vlog of the shed that you saw the wildfire caRRAGE IN
We have indeed, stay tuned!
Great vlogs guys!!
i think the inversion you were talking about it's called a stall....
Finally! Thank You! Lol
there is usually theme music in the summer when there is many people
The dolphin show is great btw
I saw me
Hi I'm visiting Kålmorden tomorrow any tips on how to get as much experience as you can in 1 day there. I wanna see everything there like the animals and the shows but i want some time on the rollercoasters too.
Have a great day!
@@ThemeParkWorldwide Thank you it was real fun, Wild Fire was really good and it was my first big rollercoaster too so the experience was really good
Hi Shawn, great video. Can you tell me what camera you used please? Many thanks
We use a Panasonic HD Camcorder and Go Pro Hero 4
Many thanks
Oh Kalmarden I haven't been there for years, this video makes me think I need to go back soon ;) What do you do to get time off to go to these theme parks? I need more annual leave haha!
Because of the long hours I do I only work 4 days a week!
Poor shammy B, bless it, where's the love gone!
It's still an amazing coaster
Seen you last weekend working Shawn. Was going to come up and say hello but we didn't have time :-( Maybe next time.
Make sure you come and say hey next time!
3 1/2 seconds of Shawn being quiet.... that was pain
It's pronounced Zeer. I heard one of their reps at the IAPPA trade show say it in a video.
I wish I can ride wildfire now, another time my favourite ride is shambhala portadventura
Wildfire looks insane
Sean, what do you do with your glasses on these rides?
I usually take them off or occasionally use a glasses strap
Lightning rod knocks wildfire out of the park Shawn. Just wait till you come to the good ol' USA! You'll love the coasters here!
Ok, already planning my visit hahaha can someone help me?? How do you actually manage to get tickets?? I can't find my way around the website!!
They are found on the visit us page!
Theme Park Worldwide great, thank you!
How do keep count of your roller coaster credits
I have a list of them on my PC
Ok thank you for replying to my question
