- The first of many upcoming videos from my Europe Coaster Trip! This one features Holiday Park and the brilliant Expedition GeForce (along with the usual shenanigans).

Half the stress of these big coaster trips is, 'will that one ride I really wanna get on be operating??' Glad you got to do Ex G Force 🔥🔥
It really is! That first day was all stress about just getting to the park in the first place 😂
If you don't mind, I will tell you a little story about GeeForce: It is often said to be Werner Stengel's finest work. In an interview in 2020 he actually said that it is also his personal favorite rollercoaster. Pre-COVID he used to visit his "baby" frequently and I actually saw him once just coming out the exit of GeeFroce, he turned around, looked up at his creation, turned back and smiled. He also said, that sometimes he would linger around the exit to watch people leaving GeeForce and check, how big their smiles are. He said, this is the greatest reward for him.
GeeForce's famous twisted first drop - also known as the “Stengel Drop” - was basically the result of a terrain issue. In the 2020 interview Stengel said they were not able to let the drop go straight down, as the track layout then would have exceeded the park's limits and the person owning the property right next to the park wouldn't allow them or sell their property. So Stengel twisted the first drop to the side and there you go: Probably the sickest first drop ever for a rollercoaster. The fact that it was just created out of a necessity makes it even more unique, imho.
Holiday Park is my home park and it hurts me to see how poorly it has been managed in the past two decades. The acquisition by Plopsa did bring some improvement, but overall, it is just a mess and for 2 years now it’s getting worse. Operations have never been super great, but are just horrible now. And don’t get me started on maintenance! Especially GeeForce has become mostly unreliable, is often down due to technical issues. A shame given, that it’s like the park’s flagship ride.
hehe still have the old shirt was my 100 credit coaster. It just left my top 10 coaster wise so yes i agree thats its an encredble good coaster.
Controversial opinion
holiday park was better before they redesigned it
i mean yea less people are dying
but at what cost...
04:50 ROFL!! 🤣
Finally I got the time to watch this Video! What an awesome and fun day that happend out of a "oh nice Hoodie you got there"! 🥳
But yes YOU broke GeForce like you broke Fury 🤪
Diamondback hoodies bring everyone together 😂
@@K1ngdaKa88 Swiss dudes got mad flying skills bro 😎
Looks like a fun start to the trip. With Holiday Park building a Mack Extreme Spinner similar to Ride to Happiness, this provides a nice excuse to revisit Expedition GeForce in the not too far future. ;)
Exactly! What a crazy 1-2 punch that’s gonna be
Love that i found your channel right before you visit my homecountry and it's incredible theme parks. Can't wait for you to get to Europapark and Phantasialand, my 2 favorite Parks. Great Video man!
Thank you so much! Germany really does have some insanely wonderful parks, I’m a bit jealous even though I’m from Florida haha
Reminds me of the time my school went on a big end of year trip to disney and universal, and Hulk at IOA waa down. I got to ride everything else at every park we went to but hulk is what i was looking forward to most. Glad ypu got to ride ge force, because Germany is much further to go than Florida.
ROFL 😂 that Lucas clip was hilarious! He just some German rando ?? Your videos are cool man I’m binging them.. ah he Swiss!
Lukas had a roller coaster hoodie on so I said hi, and then we just hung out the rest of the day! Great guy
Nice to See you having fun :) im german and Visited holiday park several Times! Luckily you Got some more rides on that old Lady, cause geforce needs some hours to warm up to make These air time hills forcefull :)
It really is a crazy ride, one of my all-time favorites
The Maja DISRESPECT
Haven´t been to Holiday Park yet but im looking forward to the rest of the trip. nice editing
Thank you so much!
I like you and you contend a lot....rellay...but the music you`re using while you`re not talking / showing onrides etc. is becoming so annoying over time...
Sorry, I like it and will be continuing to use it :)
nice Video with cool impresions. Love the snapy edeting :D Andthe Rides. GeForce is so awesome :>
Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed it
Oh man too bad i found out about your trip to late i am from Germany and i could have gave you some tips for the parks or even accompany ypu to show you arround.
I am really glad you got to ride ge force i live 100km away from that park and i just camt get enough of that coaster.
2026 there will be a mack extreme spinnibg coaster openong at the park and it will probably give ge force a run for its money. If you'll do another trip to europe you have to come back to this park. I would recommend belgium and the netherlands as other targets.
Keep up the great content.
No worries! I managed to figure it out (sort of 😂), and the Benelux is one of my next trip targets after Japan! The parks over there look great
Great vid, really cool seeing these german coasters! Top 20 vid after the trip? 🤞
It's definitely coming! I might need to make it a Top 25 tbh 👀
Can't wait!@@ThemeParkTeeroy
8:14 not this goofy ahhh guy bruh
He’s definitely a goofball that’s for sure
You will have to return to Holiday Park to test RTH. I live about an hour away from this park and an hour away from Europa-Park, so I go there very often.
I definitely will! I love Time Traveler at SDC so whatever Holiday Park builds will be right up my alley!
i hope its as good as the one in de panne defently going back there in 2026.
