You and Charlotte should go on every water rides in the uk for charity
What a great idea, we all love Charlotte getting wet ! 😎
Slo-mo footage too 😂 sorry Charlotte 😊
to be fair, Charlotte on a water ride and Shawn on Hero all day 😊
Why wud charlotte wana do that
Oh yes would love to see Charlotte on every water slide in the country.
sweaty palms and stomach doing flip flops just watching you both do this! My worst nightmare but what an incredible experience! Fab!
me too. Im afraid of heights
We loved it!
I walked (or ran) the lift of Magnum XL-200 at Cedar Point many times when I worked there about 20 years ago. During the blackout of 2003, I actually went up three times (to about 2/3 of the way) to evacuate guests. I regret not taking pictures or video during those walks in the morning training new people, but back then it would have most likely been a disposable camera or a really early cell phone with terrible quality. If CP would ever offer a Magnum lift walk tour, I'd probably give them my money to do it again and get pictures/video.
Thanks for sharing!
It looks like a great tour, one thing that would enhance it would be to have one of the engineers to give a talk about how the ride system works for the people who are engineer minded and like the techy stuff. Maybe a Big One XXL tour with station maintenance bay.
Many thanks Shawn and Charlotte for sharing this, looks great, brilliant views and we look forward to doing this soon.
I was there yesterday for the late night riding.
It was very beautiful
I mean this in the nicest possible way... You guys are nuts!!! 🤣🤣🤣
i love blackpool pleasure beach been going for 47 years. i loved the old fun house and crazy mouse and i think there was a indoor coaster were nickelodeon land is called black hole 😄😄
It was The Space Invader which is now the Pizza Restaurant.
You ought to have both “ forward “ roll” yourself round it when you got to the top.. what a rush that would be.👍And great for us RUclipsrs to watch via your GoPro! Wahaaaaaaaaayy..🤣🤣
Thanks for watching!
Great job guys looked great I cannot believe that once again I have just come home and missed seeing you guys again I would love to shake your hands and say thankyou xx
I don't know how you both did this without freaking out. I'm watching this from my couch and I'm freaking out!!
We loved it!
im going to BPB on tuesday!!
Kudos to you Shawn and Charlotte! It’s making me feel funny even just looking at that view from the top!!!
Oh, blimey! I totally got like immense vertigo just watching you all walk the stairs to the top! The big one is certainly huge! 😨 Thank you so much for this brilliant video, just -wow! 🌺
Loving the various colours of the coaster tracks 22:01
Great video!
Fun facts:- The design of the supporting structure was done by Alan Schilke of RMC fame, when he worked under Ron Toomer at Arrow (sadly before he was allowed to move into track geometry/ride line design). The original ride line design was designed by Toomer and didn't feature the long ramps but a more exciting design - which had to be vastly simplified for a local fabricating company to produce the track pieces as Arrow were busy fabricating the track of Desperado (Buffalo Bills) at the time. I've ridden all 3 Arrow hyper coasters and Desperado ranks 2nd behind Magnum XL200 for me. I've ridden (PM)BO much more than the others though, living in the UK and I do love it (I enjoy Intamin and B&M but nothing compares to the old fashioned shake, rattle & roll).
I'm yet to ride the sections re-tracked by Taziker (far too long since a visit) but as for the original reprofiling in the early years - my friend Robert was the designer when he worked for Allot & Lomax. Having ridden both versions, I prefer his redesign work!
Thanks for sharing!
love a new video from shawn and charlotte brings a smile to my face ❤🎉
Thank you!
What a knowledgeable and informative guide! He made it really interesting!
What an amazing experience and you certainly did well weather-wise. Certainly a ‘must-do’ along with the other BPB experiences. The Walk the Woodie vlog was brilliant, I’m hoping to do one next year. 👍🎢
It’s such a great experience!
That was the most anxiety inducing moment watching you both do that, you have definitely both got nerves of steel I don’t know how you do it! Well done though! Loving these videos so happy I found your channels, iv been housebound with my kids being poorly this past week, these have kept me well entertained, Thankyou ❤❤
Thank you! Get well soon!
i was in the icon cue last night talking to you about ur videos and enso and it was so good to meet you and i was just in shock how i was stood infront of you for so long and didnt even realise. keep up the videos and hope to meet u again
Great to see you!
I am interested in doing this. It looks so much fun but also scary at the same time. The views from the top look stunning!
It’s awesome!
Queasy just watching this, I cannot do heights, love this channel cos its the nearest I'll get to riding a coaster, though I'd love to.
Thanks for watching!
So good!
I jus love how Shawn and Charlotte get invited on these little trips, I mean who else would we want to show us behind the scenes stuff! 🤍
Thank you! It was brilliant!
Amazing views at the top of the hill climb on The Big One, what a view. When you think you’re life depends on those safety clip chains as you’re walking up. A truly great experience and a must for all coaster lovers.🥰
It was great fun!
Phone slipped out me hands watching this, they were that sweaty 🤣
You're both braver than me 👏🏻
I love going on the ride but walking it...... not a chance 😬
Thanks for watching!
WOW! What a spectacular video of your experience walking The Big One!!! Thank you for another amazing video!!!
Here in the USA they offer a similar opportunity on a couple of the B&M Dive Coasters.
I love riding coasters but I do have a fear if heights.
I did walk the lift of Batman the Ride at Six Flags Magic Mountain and halfway up the life of the original Texas Giant at Six Flags Over Texas!!! Incredible experiences!!!
Thank you for watching!
wow that was fascinating!!! i guess we see why the ride is down at times, bcuz they have tours, incredible!!
Thanks for watching! This was after park close!
Can't wait to visit Blackpool Pleasurebeach hoepfully next year.
the one I have been waiting for can not believe you did this guy's
That looks fun! I still have not been this season!
Hats off to you guys on this one! Sod that 😮😂 especially walking down! x
Wow - simply wow ! 😎😵😵💫😵💫
NOT A CHANCE!!!! Too brave for me!!!
My husband and I got stuck on the top of dueling dragon roller coaster at islands of adventure in Orlando had to get out step on a metal plate and walk all the way down, you can better believe I asked for a front of the line pass for the day ❤❤
Nice seeing you both yesterday. I was in the queue at ghost train xxxx
Great to see you!
Fabulous- so brave x
I've had to pause for a bit. I have a phobia of heights and this is making me ill. You guys deserve a medal. Now I will try and watch to the end. I made it to the end. What a great experience you had. Great vlog !!!!😨
Wow!! it must of been expensive for u guys to walk the big one im glad u guys enjoyed the MAGICAL experience!
The views are awesome!
Im the family in the back at 32:19
That was brilliant guys real first class
I could never.
The are we nearly there killed me 😂😂
I think I’d literally get vertigo and faint haha. My fear of heights could never, but it was really cool watching y’all do it.
Hi shawn and Charlotte Wow what an experience. Not for me I'm afraid. I don't mind going on coasters but I don't really like heights. The quicker you get down the better 😂. The thing that you were attached to seemed very flimsy. You both just keep giving well done 👏. Thanks for sharing with us. Love to you both as always Tracey 💕 xxxx
The views were awesome!
Fantastic views of the rides 15:18
Brilliant vlog
That is awesome. You aren’t kidding when you talk about parks in Europe and the UK offering all kinds of behind the sevens tours. The only parks in the US I have seen do anything like this is on a Dive Coaster, like Griffen, Sheikra , and Valravn.
It’s a great experience!
Me and my friend was talking about doing this years back we was saying the view from the top is great thanks for posting this Shaun and Charlotte
I would so love to get the opportunity to climb the big one
We would definitely recommend it!
I would never do that, I’m scared of heights, but I bet the view is incredible.
No thankyou!! 😂😂😂. Just watching your video was enough! Weldone guys
Everytime i look at it i remember the old times from home videos back in 1993 and 1994 b4 it opened it was just the white suports up at the turn around back when fun house was still there. I can treasure those memorys but will cry when day comes hopeful when my kids r alot older have been on it when it comes to end of its time. Have photos when the beach used to come all way up to the the big dipper used to do horse and donky rides along the side of it
Thanks for sharing!
Awesome Video Guys
Really cool, ill experience it through you guys. I couldn't do it, I'd freeze half way up.
What great experience walking along a coaster
It was epic!
What an experience guys, brilliant to do something like that. I personally would love to do that!!
It was epic!
Ooh I didn't know this was a thing! Definitely want to do this 😁
I suspect they'll redesign the ride to make the incline at the start steeper so it can claim it's higher than the one at Thorpe Park.
Another great vlog the first thing i did after watching was look for that video of the formula one car going around the big one.
Thanks for watching!
Anyone else's anxiety levels through the roof
I am looking forward to finding the big on this Saturday it looks amazing 😊
I hope you manage to find it. It’s quite big though 😂
Great video as always Shawn and Charlotte
Thank you so much
@@ThemeParkWorldwide you’re welcome
Im feeling ill on the first bit. U r both very brave
well done you pair.I could not do that do not have the heads for heights
Wow that made our stomach go funny. 😁😁😁😄😀😄😄😁😁😁
I saw you on Thursday!😂
Although Infusion isn't the best (please put the new trains on it!). Its fascinating how it just fits and looks the part. I still remember begging my parents to take me to Southport to ride TraumaTizer!
Get a good view from up there, see Southport, Barrow, Preston and the Bowland hills.
That person who measured the gap to squeeze Infusion in between The Big One and The Big Dipper had a massive responsibility. I love how they managed to erect it in such a tight space.
They did indeed!
Thorpe will probably do this when Exodus is open. They already do one for the Swarm
We hope they do!
My hands are sweating like hell watching this. Ooof.
Amazing experience TPWgang
It was awesome!
Mental at 100ft it still towers above everything else in the park.
It sure does!
Yes will be there for the big dipper birthday celebration on 23rd August
I enjoyed this would like to try it myself
We would definitely recommend it
The view going up is way better than the view going down.
Like how they are explaining how the weather effects the ride operation 5:44
Still not done this yet - looks decent 👌
I would love to do that :))
I used to get very winded when I had to walk to the top of Hulk at Universal Orlando for evacs. I can’t imagine doing that on The Big One. 😮
It takes a few minutes to get your breath back!
Hi Sean and Charlotte hope u both doing well. I got to try this love blackpool amazing place
Thanks for watching!
This looks incredible experience. UKS Tallest Roller Coaster well won’t be for long untill Thorpe Parks New Coaster will get build and I hope project exodus will have a climb experiences aswell that would be fantastic
I’m sure they will do!
One time I could clearly see Rhyl from the top of the lift hill!
That is epic
I wouldn’t even make it to the 50ft sign 😂
I’d did the regular lift hill walk and that is just as amazing with the view I had a fantastic sunset as well and was a little more in my price budget if Pleasure beach expanded on the exclusive ride experiences some suggestions are some behind the scenes experiences they could do and Icon BTS experience having an exclusive tour of the operating console, Maintenance Shwd and walk along the launches and explore off limits areas and another one could be a Valhalla BTS experience now that would incredible
That would be great to see!
Sorry for ambushing you 2 days in a row 😂 hope yous enjoyed your icecream and had a great weekend 😊
Its actually an urban myth that the F1 car at the Grand Prix station is the same as the Big One F1 car. They are both totally different cars.
Amazeing ❤big love
Wow what a great video what amazing view. I wouldn't be able to do that i was watching it and i was getting jelly legs . How did u and Charlotte feel going up there ?
Thank you! We loved it!
i love those views i remember when this was called the pepsi max big one and it's still called that in rct 1. now is morgan or vekoma re tracking it?
Managed to get on the big one for the first time in 4 years and it must be said, some of the retracking needs reprofiling because the parts when going into both sets of brakes give such a nasty jolt 😔 i didn't want to re ride it and i usually go on it a fair few times when i'm at the park
Brave!😬
This is how shawn works out

They should do a white tower restaurant meal after the walk
Esp if its cold
This Ride is the tallest in the UK and it opened the same year as Shockwave at Drayton Manor and Nemesis At Alton towers but I Would have peed myself if I was up there because I was at Oakwood Yesterday afternoon and rode Speed no Limits And THAT WAS SO SCARY!
Speed is awesome!
I Know Right
if i did walk the big one i would be so scaired walking up the steps on the lift hill
