Busch Gardens Williamsburg: Re-creation! Park Spotlight 136 #PlanetCoaster
This is my home park, and he did an incredible job. Haven’t been in a couple years, but it’s exactly as I remember everything. Even the attention to detail on the coasters is phenomenal. For example, Alpengeist has unique support structures for the lift hill, which are present in this recreation. Another interesting bit of detail on Alpengeist, entering the mid-course brake run the coaster snaps from the banked curve to the flat, and even that is present. Excellent job at recreating it. From a local, 8.5-9.5/10
Micheal Phillips same here but just a little work with the paths and some of the little details need to be fixed
What really was amazing is that Griffon stayed at the drop for five seconds like the real one. Fantastic.
I will say that I never got to ride Dracon Fire, Almost did but decided to pass...in some ways I'm glad I didn't but I kinda wished I did...What turned me off to it was the fact that ppl were complaining about the jerking... But BBW was my first coaster...so sad to see her go. I've lived here all my life & I live about 15 - 20 mins away from BG.
It is very accurate it is my home park aswell
It needs a little upgrade but it’s overall good
I go to busch gardens almost every year, and this is pretty spot on. While I wish Apollo's Chariot was in here, the fact that they put Big Bad Wolf in put a smile on my face. All the coaster recreations are amazing!!!
Busch Gardens Williamsburg is such a gem. Everything there is so clean and well done. One of a kind park
this is a fantastic recreation. i was already happy but imagine my surprise when i turned the corner and saw the iconic red track of the big bad wolf. riding it in this game is the closest we'll ever be to riding it again. thank you
This is sensational, it's spot on. You really should visit these parks. You're not able to appreciate how incredible some of these recreations turned out, without knowing what the park is like in person. This is one of the best park recreations I've seen in a video game. Kudos @thrillrides
Oh man, such a good theme park irl.
Yes for sure
Yee
Haven't watched the video yet but already excited because Busch Gardens Williamsburg is my home park 🤗
Same lol
Same, Hampton Roads gang.
It’s my my home park to! I went there on May 8th for my b-day and it was so fun!
For using Google Earth pictures and videos parts of this park are spot-on this is my home park and this is an incredible recreation. also no water park here that's water country 2 miles away and is Virginia's largest water park
The New France area is meant to be olden day Canada. kept bugging me how you thought it was either Germany or France lol
Lol, same. And he's from Canada.
R.I.P Big Bad Wolf
goodbye my friend :(
"She" was my first coaster...Sad they had to put "her" down for Verbolten.
@@CrystalNibarger Roller Coasters do not have "genders" they are "machines"
@@megablueman Neither do cars or ships but yet people still say she for cars and ships.
@@CrystalNibarger relax Karen
Not gonna lie. The Loch Ness Monster may be an old Arrow coaster, but it has one of the most legendary first drops of all time imo. You really feel your stomach dropping. Epic coaster!!
Wow he did an awesome job. Coasters are well built and smooth too. Impressive!
I’ve been a Season Pass Member since 2007, this is the Busch Garden I was And am growing up with. This recreation is extremely accurate, it brings back many memories and I plan to keep making memories at the real park. 9.999/10
Bruh he said highland stables is a ride at the real park it’s not a ride it’s where they keep there horses
Haha it would be a good location for a ride like that if the Park ever wants to get rid of the horses; doubt it anytime soon
ha yur trash ik lmaooo
Yeah they got the horses in the back
I wasn’t alive when when the go carts existed, but maybe that’s where it was? Idk though, just a suggestion.
@@afterallthistimealways1783 that real kart ride was where the Alpinegeist currently stands
I went to Busch Gardens in Summer 2019, and I absolutely loved it. This recreation is top notch. 👌
As this is my home park, I can officially say he did an amazing job!!!!
Hi Jonny! Thank you for this Park Spotlight!!
Maybe I should have to tell you more about the other attractions in the park. :-D The problem is that it’s really hard for me to write long texts in English. :-D
Escape from Pompeii is a Shoot the Chute, which is also located in the italy section. I uploaded a video from this ride on my channel with the original sound, if you like to see it. You really should watch a video of the real ride on RUclips, it’s fantastic. :-)
The Roman Rapids ride is in the Fiesta Italia section.
I didn’t know that it’s possible to make this map bigger, thank you for this idea!
When I started this project I only wanted to recreate Alpengeist and Le Scoot, I never thought that I will do a complete re-creation. That’s the reason why there are differences to the original and some missing attractions. :’D
Anyway, thank you for this Spotlight!
ThrillRides You're great! I remember seeing your recreations on your channel a while back and I loved them! If you do decide to add Fiesta Italia, I will check it out! Keep doing what you're doing, you're awesome! :D
@@umchileanywaysso-6555 Thank you so much! :)
This is a nice recreation BUT... 3 Key Coasters are missing. Verbolten, Apollos Chariot, and Tempesto. Honestly Im surprised he didn't include the famous Defunct coaster, Drachen Fire
BlaqJm18 the big bad wolf is we’re verboten is.
BlawJm18, Thomas did it bcz there is no Sky Rocket II in the game
The coaster he has in place of Verbolten is the original coaster, The Big Bad Wolf
I haven’t seen Verbolten on PC yet and I was excited until I saw Big Bad Wolf... also Apollo’s Chariot is a classic! It has to be made in this park!
Busch Gardens Williamsburg is the best park in the country. It has the right theming, great food and awesome rides. Their waterpark Water Country USA is very good as well!
Amazing recreation! This is actually one of my local parks; Kings Dominion being the other!
Same bro!
This is insanely close to what the park looks like. The only thing missing is obviously Fiesta Italy and then there's some missed elevation changes that exist in the park such as Scottland at the entrance is actually up on a hill, but an absolutely stunning replica. Well done. You've made a BGW homefan VERY PROUD!
My aunt worked for busch gardens when I was younger. We would go every year as an end of summer, before school trip to visit and goto the park. I always loved it. Haven't been in almost 15 years, but my dad and I are taking a father/son trip in September. Can't wait. Great job on this recreation.
5:50 The last time I visited the park, the Le Mans Raceway was still operating where Griffon is now. This little track is reminiscent of that old attraction. RIP Le Mans Raceway.
I've never been to BG Williamsburg, even though it's one of the most popular, closet theme parks to where I live here in Maryland. That said, this video earned my like as SOON as I heard that this entire park was built from the GOOGLE MAPS STREET VIEW of the park. The dedication and patience you need to build a park you've never been to, from a collection of pictures, is astonishing. Bravo to ThrillRides. I get to see a virtual version of a park I honestly should have visited numerous times, created in 17 months by someone else who's never been there. And I'm impressed.
Thanks ThrillRides for putting in the labor of love, and Channel5 for posting this video.
I love this park! I've been to it hundreds of times. (Im serious) He did a great job.
I’ve probably been about that many times, maybe more. I live an hour away.
Same I live about 30 minutes away
I Haven't been to Busch Gardens Williamsburg but have been to Busch Gardens Tampa. This looks very accurate from what I've heard/seen about the park, so good job Thomas! And as always Jonny, keep up the hard work!
RIP Curse of dark Kastle, you will live on in the hearts of many
Oh this park was THE best part of my childhood and The Big Bad Wolf was my first ever roller coaster that got me into loving those rides instead of dreading them.
I was pretty sad and mad when it got shut down, along with The Curse of DarKastle, which was and is sadly WAY better than this recreation of it, sometime later, but now I live in Ohio.
One of the states that barely has a theme park worth mentioning that has rides that harshly jostles your brain in your skull and makes you loose your glasses(I am near sighted without them, so I had to see in blurry early in my and my family's visit there to when I had to buy a new pair DAYS later).
This makes me wish I was still living in Virginia, too be honest.
I love Busch Gardens Williamsburg. This guy did such a great job building this. The only draw back is the elevation points. Some of my best memories are slowly walking up a steeeeep hill after a long day walking around the park. Otherwise I enjoyed the virtual tour! Griffin for life!!!!
I'm rewatching this during quarantine since I really miss going to this park irl. Especially since hallowscream is coming up soon
They're bringing back HOS this year. Should be great as usual 👌
This is my home park. You did an awesome job! Especially love that you recreated big bad wolf
This is my home park and i own season passes! The way he created alpengeist and griffon are 10/10 recreations for sure! Very accurate and crazy to believe he has never been. Would love to see him create the rest of the park maybe in a second file but the map is great 9.5/10 BGW should maybe even use him for some stuff cuz buddy has got some skills and talent!
I know I’m super late to the party, but I wanted to pitch in my small comments about this. Busch Gardens is one of 2 theme parks 3 hours from home (both the closest). I went there the last year that big bad wolf was there. The attention to detail is stunning, I even looked through some old photos and compared, wow! I remember seeing commercials for the Griffon back in 2006/07 and this brings back memories!
It saddens me that Apollo’s Chariot didn’t make it in, it was my favorite coaster and the one with the fondest memories. Stunning recreation, amazing job.
Being in Virginia only 30 minutes away from this park is amazing. And the coaster recreations are awesome. However there are so many big details about this park that he is missing. Also the stables don’t have the kitty ride in them! You should come visit the park for yourself and learn how to pronounce the names! We locals are offended!
Keith Richmond I live 15 minutes away from Busch and I work there as well. I ain’t offended
Then get a grip
@@benji_theatre2028 I go to William and Mary and I go to Busch Gardens like twice a year, but I am extremely offended!!!!!!
lmfao, this person puts hundreds of hours to pay homage and re-create this theme park and you have the audacity to be offended. gtf over yourself
Sorry for you losses hope everything gets better 👍💙💙💚🤎🤍💛🖤🧡💜❤️
Real nice one... greets from 🇩🇪
This brings back memories! Last time I was here I was so scared to ride the roller coasters! Now i want to go back and ride them all!
Was just at Busch Gardens this weekend so was so happy to see this recreation! Thanks for including Big Bad Wolf; it was my first coaster and I still miss it!!
So far the log flume is my favorite attraction in the park (29:35 in). That view of the Alpengeist on the first turn, seeing the cabin behind you splash down, the brief shot of the wooden coaster, the Alpengeist flipping and twirling overhead as you get back to the station... I gotta visit BG: Williamsburg for that ride alone! That's a true theme park experience, all in one ride
I went here as a kid a while ago, I very faintly remember this park but from the gist of it, very well done. Also that's insane how he did it from street view! Well done, very well done. I've been thinking about making a park myself but school's in the way a lot.
This was really well done. I grew up at this theme park, back when “the big bad wolf” and Drachen fire” coasters were still in operation. Its a walk down memory lane. The last coaster was and is the most iconic ride in the park for me. He did actually model it after an existing ride there. Its “escape from pompeii” A+ to the builder. He did this so well. I made a similar recreation of BG williamsburg in rct2 but is nothing compared to this
this is my home park! very detailed and exact! Great Job
I’m so glad to have this as my home park, and wow! This is so accurate! The Big Bad Wolf still existing instead of Verbolten is awesome!
Ok so I went to busch gardens yesterday and my mom and grandma went on it with me and all I heard when we hit the launch was AAAÆÆAAAAAAAAAÆ!!!!
@@squiddyboywithpowerarmor lol the first launch always catches me off-guard too
Wow, I think you have to go to the park to see just how impressive this map is..
i have to say… i’ve lived in williamsburg my entire 21 years of living and have had a seasons pass to busch for like 17 of those 21 years…. this is crazy!!!!! i was thinking of trying to recreate it myself but i don’t think i could do it this much justice hahaha
My local theme park and probably my favorite. I had my first ever Rollercoaster experience there.
I loved this video, I go to Busch gardens regularly, I really wish the creator could have included festa Italia, it is one of my favorite areas of the park.
Also, the highland stables is an animal attraction, not a car attraction, although it would be cool to have a car ride there. Although the creator did an excellent job on the park using google street view. It is nearly identical to the park albeit a few minor changes.
Also, the log flume was an opening day attraction back in 1975 I believe.
This makes me happy. Seeing my home park in planet coaster :)
Very nicely put together video and very entertaining as well. Thanks for posting this.
YEESSS! HE DID THIS! WHEN I SAW THE VID BY THRILLRIDES AND I WAS LIKE YAS BCZ U LUV THIS PARK AND THIS RECREATION! OMG I CANT BELIEVE JOHNNY DID THIS!!
Fantastic park to spot light well deserved
The details are so amazingly accurate! I’ve been going to Busch Gardens since I was six and it’s cool to see some of the things that they have taken out to put in new rides. I’m actually going back this weekend, so I’ll see if they have changed Dark Castle yet
I live very close to here, about an hour, and I’m absolutely astonished by this
The water park is a separate park. The Big Bad Wolf should never have been replaced, I'm glad to see he put it in his park. The Roman Rapids is "Escape from Pompeii", you witness the destruction of Pompeii while escaping the wrath of Mt. Vesuvius. I do love his recreation of Bush Gardens, my favorite park.
@Michael Edgar Thought that didn't sound right, funny thing is I couldn't remember the name of the river rapids. Lol
From Someone that Went to this park today it was spot on 10/10
I see the " Squires Grill " ex-wife use to be a cashier there...NICE ! Highland Stables ? has a kiddie car ride ? don't have the clydesdales anymore ? I haven't been to BG for a few years as I move to Kansas. Use to live only 13 miles from BGW. Yes, there is a water park. " Water Country U.S.A. On the other side of I-64, yes, my ex-wife use to work there too.
Lochness Monster: I can't even begin to count how many times I have been on this coaster, but the recreation is spot on. Great job. I have watched the ( I think ) No Limits recreation and was disappointed at the helix. it was so dark onside the cave to even know you were on a helix.
Fest Haus: WOW...just like I remember it. Loved the " Hallow Scream " shows at the Fest Haus...I miss it a lot and hope to someday return at the appropriate time of year.
Dark Castle: Que seemed right , but honestly don't remember the stairs spiraling down. Dark Castle is a 3D ride. One of my most favorite rides at BGW. It is great fun for the entire family, from children to grand parents that cannot handle the extreme rides It does not have the 3D elements in this video, so I cannot give a review on it. But if you are ever to visit BGW, this is a MUST ride.
Alpengeist: Fairly spot on. I think it's about 99% accurate only because it missed the shack at the mid course brakes. Everything else is as I remember it.
InvadR: The quasi wooden coaster. Quasi because from what I understand is a wooden coaster with steel supports. or is it Wooden supports with steel track ? I can't remember, but it is not 100% wooden. Never been on it so I cannot comment to the accuracy.
Le Scoot Flog Flume: Hmmm, was not a ride I frequented, so I cannot really tell you if this is 100% accurate either. I just was never a big fan of water rides.
Griffon: Spot on ! Perfect recreation. I believe the height is 207 feet. or was it 205 and the Apollos Chariot was 207 ft. I can't remember.
"AIr Bolten " ??? Well, what is featured was called " The Big Bad Wolf " which is no longer there. It was too old and too costly for parts if they could find any. I twas a park favorite. What replaced it is " Verbolten " which is a very cool coaster in it's own right. It is a multi launch coaster which the first half is indoors and features a track drop and a second launch. The Big Bad Wolf recreation here seems 100% spot on. My favorite part of the entire ride was at the end braking..the suspended cars would sway back and forth while you were at a complete stop. I believe this is a 100% recreation, but then again, it's been 11 years since I last rode it before the park tore it down and replaced it.
Escape from Pompeii : Again, was never much of a water ride person, I think I had been on it once. Didn't really like the actual flames crawling across the ceiling...but if you are into that sort of thing, then I suppose you would think it was cool. The ride heats you and prepares you for the cool water splash.
What was not in this video:
Apollos Chariot. A B&M Hypercoaster. I believe it is 207 feet tall and features some incredible airtime. No inversions, but features a reverse helix that promptly whips you into a short dive then back up a short hill and then snaps you to the right. REALLY smooth coaster and also a BIG park favorite. Expect to stand in line for a while.
again, it's been a few years so I am going strictly by memory and I must say,it's a pretty accurate recreation.
This my home theme park and I go there a lot and this is really good and realistic I wish Apolls charoit was there but it’s still good
OMG this is beautiful. I love this park, as it’s my home park. Disappointed with lack of Italy, but I understand. Really good job!
The immelmann loop on Griffon is after both of the drops, not just the second. It's pronounced like "ih-muhl-men" though just so u know
There’s a Busch Gardens in Tampa, Florida
Anthony Rodriguez yes
I grew up going to this park n this is sooooo Spot on! I love it! Definitely a must see in real life tho!
The water park you mention is called Water Country USA. It's a sister park to Busch, but they're not connected so that wouldn't be here anyway. Only a few minutes drive between them though. Anyway, I love those two parks and this is a really great job, especially for them having done it on their own. Really interesting to see a bit of old and new. That is sad they couldn't fit festa but oh well. Still great job!
The Immallman (Im-mall-man) turn is the half loop, with the roll out. When you put two after each other, you get a 'Cuban eight' areobatic manouver.
Great park. He did an awesome job. Im currently working on a 1970's park. So I can only use coasters and rides from that era,,and man its killing me to not add a B&M coaster. All I have is a woodie, wild mouse and an arrow. Oh well next park I will add on to it and add 80's rides and so forth.
Hey Johnny,,you should make that a contest. Have us submit parks from certain eras using only the rides of that era.
Very first time I ever rode the Griffin was a couple years ago it was the October Halloween thing to do every year and it was so bloody hot and my friend and I went to Busch Gardens we didn't eat anything all day we did get drinks but when I rode the Griffin and got all I threw up three times in a row because we've been riding roller coasters all day I want to go back and ride it again without getting sick neat video by the way keep up the good work man
So really, this is a recreation of the park with both new and old attractions. Looks great though
I'm so glad someone made a re-creation of one of my favorite theme parks. I tried myself in RCT3 but I failed XD. Either way, this park is well done. Although, I am glad that Thomas included the Big Bad Wolf as it was my favorite coaster before they replaced it with verbolten (that just seems like a harder coaster to re-create)
Lochness is such a good ride.
I would have just removed the parking lot
5:30 last time I went, we got rained out one day and my Dad and I stood in this spot under an umbrella meant for a snack stand 😭
9:33 FTW!
Just from the above ground views it looks really similar
Highland Stables has no ride, it's where the Clydesdales roam. New France = Canada. The ride you called Roman Rapids is Escape From Pompeii.
Since festa Italia was cut off I’m currently working on a recreation of that specific area of the park, including Apollo’s chariot, tempesto, and Roman rapids, as well as trade winds and Turkish delight
I grew up at this park. I’ve got so many fond memories I have of that place.
the verbolten is actually the big bad wolf the old coaster that was there. the verbolten's effects would probably be too hard to do haha
I really do hope you get to go to Busch Gardens
If you go to Germany you MUST visit Phantasialand in Brühl, just outside of Köln, I visited it in the summer and as a Canadian used to riding the same rides at Canadas Wonderland, it was amazing getting to experience Taron and Black Mamba. Hopefully you get to go some day
Also, a site that I use to help me keep up my German studies during the summer is Duolingo. The site will offer you a placement test or to just get started at basics. The learning tree is designed to build upon things previously learned. It also has a speaking component if you want to work on how the words are supposed to be said.
One of the last parks I went to with my mom when I was 6 ;(
:(
Awww the big bad wolf I miss it....
That is amazing
I just came back from that park and it looks so real
Although the layout is accurate, this doesn't do The Big Bad Wolf any justice. Riding it definitely felt faster and one of the most memorable parts is after the first drop when you nearly miss the houses during each turn. Felt like you were gonna crash right into the structures.
Last time I went with my mom we went on the Invadr and apollos chariot, we didn’t see the drop on invadr until we were riding, and my mom hated it because of the clacking and the whiplash
Apollo's chairiot and roman rapids are in festa italia, and what you called roman rapids is escape from pompeii
Festa italia would probably be pretty hard to build, Apollo’s chariot would take up a lot of space
Highland stables is just a place where you can take a picture with a Clydesdale

I hope someone recreates verbolten at some point. Also I’d love to see a recreation of kings dominion as well. Being from Virginia it’s really cool to see someone recreate one of the places I spent a good part of my childhood at.
This is insanely accurate. Other than the stables
i know i late to this vid but this is a park I have been to every year since I was 5 man did he do a good job he got every this pretty mutch perfect
I just went here for my birthday today but the one in Tampa
He build this better than me and I’ve actually gone to the park😂
Wait a minute, anyone that has been there did you realize there isn’t actually a car ride in Scotland’s real life?
Yeah there never was just a train nearby
This is fucking immaculate.
I go to Busch gardens all the time
I've been there once. My homepark is Carowinds
Ha I don’t have a home park my closest one is 1 hr 40 min away and that SF great adventure
It drove me crazy how you kept calling Escape From Pompeii the Roman Rapids. 2 completely different rides.
Ok this is amazing and I’m only like 15 minutes in and I only see two mistakes and theyre not even huge it’s that the highland stables is not a ride it’s actually just a stables they have horses there and darcastle is different from the real ride (rip darcastle) ngl though the new one that Thomas made looks amazing. Also the ride where verbolten is is actually The big Bad Wolf. The big bad wolf was replaced by verbolten. And verbolten is a mostly inside launch coaster.This is coming from a Busch Gardens season pass holder. And there is no water park directly attached to Busch Gardens but water country USA has the same parent company and is like 15-30 min away from the park
Damn this is awesome, how come Apollo's Chariot isn't in here though? Seems weird
