For our upcoming 4th anniversary on RUclips I wanted to redo one of our early expeditions. The original video on Saw was just 6 minutes long. I hope you enjoy this expanded version looking at the rollercoaster. Thank you for all the support watching my videos and here’s to another great year of Expeditions to come! Happy Halloween! - Sam
Happy Halloween to you to
Happy Halloween Sam! Just a question will you be remaking any other short expeditions? Thanks
Hi
The kids have died hahaha
Happy Holloween Bro
I've said it before and I'll say it again: we need more permanent rides based on horror franchises. A dark ride based on Evil Dead, a VR simulator based on Nightmare on Elm Street, an automated shooting gallery based on Resident Evil (think a cross between the Biohazard shooting gallery that was at Universal Japan several years ago and Buzz Lightyear Space Ranger Spin), the possibilities are endless!
More horror!
Yeah more horror but instead of a horror ride in universal we got 2 kiddie rides secret life of pets ride and the super Mario one
@@BOOBERRY105 I'm still waiting for Super Nintendo World to actually be *built* outside Japan. They announced it several years ago, they have no excuses!
Agreed people want scenic rides...many want rides like disney.
If you arnt a teenager through 30 years of age you don't want to ride rollercoasters....😎
I agree a silent hill based coaster would be cool
I’ve always had an appreciation for SAW despite the fact that I’ve never even been to Thorpe. It was one of the first coaster POV videos I ever watched on RUclips and the drop along with the saw blades just blew me mind and made my want to try as many roller coasters as I could
The ride experience with the music and theming is a must for anybody who likes SAW.
It certainly is a good watch seeing the trains drop towards the blades
Even though it was so expensive I did get one of those dvds of me and a friend on the right in 2009 😅
Haha good purchase!
I have one as well I remember Swarm having DVD’s as well unfortunately this never worked though when I went on it so only had Saw the ride dvd
do they still have the DVDs available to buy?? and if so, how much are they????
@@me-nu4wr no they removed it and the swarm as well. The swarm had massive problems for some reason the camera was always fogging up and not working so eventually it was removed. I am not sure why Saw was removed as well. I also never heard of any other merlin park offering videos on rides.
I know Merlin did have a dvd experience at Madame Tussuads which I have which also they don’t do anymore but that was big brother.
I have no clue how much it was but I imagine £15-£20
Oi didnt expect to see you here, Roly 😂😂 fun
"However, the attraction didn't show really anyone being tortured, and only had two bodies located inside."
That definitely wouldn't fly if you were talking about any other coaster!
I personally love this ride as it’s one of the best themed rollercoasters I’ve ever been on. It will be a sad day when the Saw partnership eventually comes to an end.
Its so shaky
@@hollybabyyyNot as much as Colossus
@@hollybabyyy i went on it two days ago itwasa super smooth ride for me
I was working at the advertising agency that did all of Thorpe Park's ads around 2008 - 2010. As a huge SAW fan, I remember getting quite annoyed at some of the voiceover takes and some of the inconsistencies in the scripted lines because I knew that they weren't quite how they'd have been said in the films and I was determined for us to get it as perfect and realistic as possible. I would have been a nightmare for the creative team and client probably. I'm actually in the background of the main TV advert, as they're going up the lift tower, I'm one of the 2 people sitting casually in the second car going around in the background. I seem to recall us wearing hi-vis jackets because we were filming prior to the ride being 100% finished, so they had to retouch out the jackets in post production.
It’s crazy how this ride is actually a real thing
I hope one day we get a Friday the 13th coaster
If u haven’t done it, do it!
I hope so too my fav!
We have 13 haha
I can almost imagine Merlin going hmm we have TH13TEEN lets make it Friday the TH13TEENTH cause that'll work
@@ExpeditionThemePark I need the watch the FT13th films. I’ve seen Halloween and Scream & those are really the only slashers I’ve seen
Saw: The Ride isn't short, especially if you ride in the second car. I don't get why people think a coaster has to be long in order to be considered enjoyable, even then, coasters generally are around a minute long. I think Saw: The Ride is a great attraction at Thorpe Park & in terms of Horror Theming, is a shit ton better than Black Mirror Labyrinth which I felt was a let down & Thorpe Park's lazy attempt to create something new. Thorpe Park needs a new coaster!
also it’s got a bit of evrything. It was my first roller coaster and i liked it a lot. there was only one big drop only a few inversions it’s good to kidna dip your toes into the more intense roller coasters
Thorpe Park is very tired now, it needs serious investment everywhere
Well Thorpe Park do currently have a high-level plan out for public consultation for a new coaster.... nothing's going to get approved & started for at least another year but good to know they do actually have something in the works at least
Ok but the mummy ride is really short
I just watched a POV of the ride and didn't see anything saw themed. I was a little bit confused
Yes this is so deserved, always wanted a longer look into this
Hope you enjoy it!
I love this coaster. It's another really good example of how a decent theme and environment can turn a mediocre layout into something much more thrilling. I might be biased though, as I love the Saw franchise. As for Thorpe, I'm afraid I've had my fill for a little while now. I'm really hoping that they can bring a major investment in soon, but they need to do something about the clientele they attract, and come up with a better solution for controlling guest numbers.
It really needs a change
Agree 100% I went in the summer and had a very mediocre day with the amount of people there
Project Exodussssss
weekdays are the key lol. I went 3 days ago and I waited between 0-10 mins for every ride (except stealth which was about 20 minutes)
God the production on this is so amazing. It’s like a full documentary!
Thank you so much
This will always be one of my favourites, not just because it's Saw, well, mainly because it's Saw, but because it was just a unique ride at the time for the UK. The queue line is pretty good with the "traps" littered around, the people getting scared inside the building when they don't expect the shotgun trip wire trap, then just all the movie stuff inside.
Last time I went on Saw, in the summer, it was running smoother than ever and was probably my second favourite ride of the day (only to Swarm :)
That's great!
@@ExpeditionThemePark yea I went yesterday, swarms feeling a little rougher but saw was 100% as always lmao
I could never get into the Saw movies themselves, i watch alot of horror films, but i think saw was too gruesome for me.
But I still cant help but appreciate the amountof detail put into the ride. From the que to the ride itself, it really felt like something from the Saw film itself.
Yeah the themeing is done well even if you haven't seen the films
I’m in the same boat. It’s movies like saw that I don’t understand why anyone would subject themselves to.
@@gerarddip yeah I'm not one for gory exploitative films, not saying saw is THAT bad, but there are movies out that will literally scar me if I watch them, so I don't like em lol
I remember being soooo excited for the 1st Saw.... and then being soooo disapointed. I just found it super corny & terrible acting. I swear Cary Elwe's accent kept switching from British to American & it was driving me nuts. I thought it was surviving off of the hype alone rather than it being. I'm still amazed at the amount of money & # of movies they've managed to beat outta that dead horse!
Horror movies took a fall when it went for shock and torture instead of suspense.
The studio that makes the Saw movies is still surprisingly chill and humble. I doubt they'll cause a fuss over the theming any time soon.
I’ve really only watched Defunctland for my amusement park documentaries, but this one was very enjoyable and captivating. Earned a viewer!
I'm genuinely one of SAW the film franchises biggest fans and Gerstlauer coasters , so riding this ride was an absolute must for me and will never get bored...😍
I swear, this was the ride I was looking most forward to when I went a few months back. We got a HELLA good deal on an overnight stay and were first in line for the park the next morning. I can say, hands down, of every coaster I've ever ridden, "Saw: The Ride" was the absolute SMOOTHEST, which is so bizarre after hearing people say it was rough (that may have been because I caught my ride right after a light rain shower, too, though). I loved it SO much. It's possibly my all-time favorite, right in line with "The Swarm" (which I REALLY enjoyed because the themeing was incredible), also at Thorpe Park, "Journey to the Center of the Earth" in Tokyo Disney Sea in Japan, "The T-Express" at Everland in South Korea, "iSpeed" at Mirabilandia in Italy, "Thunderhead" in Dollywood in Tennessee, US, and "Superman: Ultimate Flight" in Georgia, US. Man... I just want to go to an amusement park, now. T-T I'm closer to Alton Towers, now, so one of my bucket list rides, "The Smiler", might just be next!
Glad you had a good ride on it! Did you sit front or back row?
@@ExpeditionThemePark We wanted the front, but we got the back; however, we DID get the headchopper drop which was AMAZING. Unfortunately, me and my flatmate both forgot we were wearing glasses so it has a literal blur. XD
This is one of the coolest ride themes in my opinion, I’m an avid fan of the saw movies and this is definitely one coaster I want to get out to.
It’s a good one for sure!
This ride will always have a place in my heart, mostly due to the memories I had when riding it in its early days with friends.
It’s just such a shame that it can be so uncomfortable at times!
I remember watching the original video and loving it. It’s what got me hooked on your channel. Now I can’t get enough. Thank you for your dedication. Ride on
Thank you for rewatching!
I hope they add more rides like this in the States too. Looks like lots of fun. Do a Final Destination one too :)
a final destination ride would be so fun
Thorpe is in desperate need of basic TLC (painting fences etc...) and of course new flat rides and coasters. Not just tacky I.P mazes and attractions.
Agreed
colossus needs medical aide in the painting department.and maybe new trains with better retraints would be good.
Yep! It's looking really scruffy now.
This ride would have been perfect if it had the drop & reverse ride aspect of Thirteen at Alton Towers! Would have extended it & given that extra scare element!
I ask think Thorpe Park are holding out & saving up for The London Resort to be built before making massive expansions to draw customers there instead
Hopefully some local competition will push them to build bigger and better again
Some people think that The London Resort may not actually ever get built. Since it was announced 9 years ago (October 2012) not a single piece of construction has begun. I really hope it does happen though.
Very interesting looking back on this. I was working at the park during construction and helped to open the ride. It did have more than its fair share of issues. I recall the park couldn’t open the ride with more than a certain % of effects not working, this was in the contract. Great video and memories!
Great info! Thanks for watching
The implications of the ad for the ride are kind of hilarious
Victim: So, you'll let me go if I just....ride a roller coaster?
Billy: A *scary* roller coaster.
Victim:...sure?
The transition from family friendly rides to a literal SAW roller coaster gives me whiplash
Expanding on older shorter / expeditions is an awesome idea! I love it!
Thank you!
I’m sure I’ve left a comment here before seeing as I love SAW and I love rollercoasters, but man would I kill to ride this thing!! The SAW movies were my first introduction to horror (I was far too young at the time) and they remain some of my favorite horror films to date. They’re not great, especially the later ones, but they hold such a special place in my heart!! I wouldn’t be a horror junkie if it weren’t for SAW
Your feelings at the end of the video about how you love the park and are harsh cause you want it to be better and use less IP is exactly how I feel about Disney honestly.
Great video as always!
Huge SAW series fan. Happy to hear the ride is still around. Maybe someday I will travel to the UK and get to ride it.
Hope you make it over to sunny ol' england and thorpe park!
I so hope we get some major investment at Thorpe park next year. I wouldn’t be shocked if the walking dead the ride get a re-theme this winter. And will Thorpe invest in a RMC as it would be ironic as it was RMC (ready mixed concrete) who originally opened the park
This ride literally made my brain feel like it was being ripped out, can’t ride it..,so yes it is like being in a horror movie for me lol
Haha at least it fits the source material...
When Saw the ride first opened I was a teenager and really enjoyed it. But now the park seems so unloved and tired and abandoned (I liked it when you make the comment about it fitting in with Loggers Leap and Slammer which are sbno!) and, like others have said, there are too many IP rides. I personally would have loved to see the wooden coaster in Canada Creek (I never even knew about it until this video) and the possibility of it giving the area a refresh and bringing it back to life. I believe we would still have Logger’s Leap and the park would’ve cared about it more. I love wooden coasters and it would’ve fit the area so well. It made me emotional when you spoke about Thorpe Park being the park that you grew up with and how it has changed and gone somewhat downhill as I feel exactly the same way. It upsets me as I loved Thorpe so much. It has the potential to be ‘great Thorpe Park’ again. I hope it happens someday soon.
I really hope it happens too! How I wish we could have had the wooden coaster...
That wooden rollercoaster plan looked so good! Would have preferred that! I've personally never liked saw, it's too painful, it's an odd theme and I've come off the ride before in actual pain and had bruises the next day on my shoulders. It's interesting to see how many people here in the comments like the ride though. I'm surprised by that.
I completely get what you mean about the overfocus on IPs at Thorpe Park, Derren Brown's train was such a plain and boring experience. Saw worked so well, and while it isn't as great as it could be, and I love Swarm (both when it opened and now). Hopefully they'll bring in some new life to the park soon and revitalise the now empty areas.
I wish so badly that there was a year round horror themed park! Thorpe is number one on my Europe theme park bucket list. But honestly so many of them look incredible! It seems like Europe makes actual THEME parks, while here in the US it's almost all amusement parks...with the exception of Disney and universal obviously. I really wish we could get more amazing theme parks. As soon as my kids get a little bit older I will 100% be getting over there to do an epic park touring trip! Also want to get to Japan, mainly for Disney Sea lol. Thanks for your amazing content 💜
Huh... well there is going to be an all year round Halloween Horror Nights experience in Vegas opening soon so wish granted?
HELL YEAH! A new SAW video, I love the ride and series 😍🤩
I’m gonna enjoy this as usual, thanks for being great :)
Thank you! Hope you do!
I was at Thorpe park this week. Love Saw the ride and find it quite comfortable in comparison to colossus and most the rides at Blackpool pleasure beach. I think a new coaster is definitely needed soon!
Agreed!!
Went on it soon after opening, was ok but didn’t really excite me, the best part was the theming inside, the ‘shotgun’ effect (air blast from ceiling) was always one to make people move!
Today marks the supposed last day for rocky express and area? Would be good to have that woodie as discussed in video 🤔
Without a doubt one of the best themes coasters ever. I was there in the first few weeks. The queues and atmosphere was electric. The coaster and saw alive in their first few seasons were without a doubt world class. Its just a shame that the station and plaza area are not what they used to be. I don't jump or scare easy, but those bloody air shotguns hahaha I'm sure at first they were manually set off by the actors
YOU SAID EVERYTHING I'VE BEEN THINKING AS A THORPE PARK FAN THANK YOU KING
hah thank you
One of my favourite vids of yours, happy to see it get expanded!
Thank you for your channel! Gives us “weirdo” theme park/roller coaster people a wonderful place to learn and share. 😁
I remember when the adverts for Saw: The Ride were first plastered around Thorpe.
Of course, being a kid back then, I literally had no idea what the fuck Saw was (all I knew was that my local park was advertising something), and the weirdly cropped Billy picture on the adverts made it look like a weird bird-like thing with red eyes, weird ears, and spiral on its nose instead, which I imagined having a really squwaky voice literally just saying the word 'saw' over and over again. (Just look at the thumbnail of this video, squint a bit so everything goes a bit blurry, and pretend that the spiral on Billy's cheek is his nose, you'll probably be able to see what I'm describing)
Anywho, I'd say that the IP deal on Saw The Ride is probably going to remain for at least a couple more years. Sure, after Saw 3D, the franchise went into hibernation for quite a few years, however, with the relatively recent revival of the series with Jigsaw and Spiral (and the announcements that the Saw and Spiral franchises are continuing in some form), chances are that both parties will want to continue cashing in on the sweet, sweet, mutual advertisement
Billy Bird
It may be around for a while yet...
Oi! You had my attention at "beyond vertical drop" - and that was only the start. Excellent work as always.
I live right near Thorpe Park.
Though it wasn’t my favourite ride, I still really found it holds up to this day, it’s not too extreme or over the to mechanically, but it’s amazing.
Themed rides that actually stick with their themes are the best.
One of my favourite rides, if not my first fave, at thorpe park, its really up there. Went on the 29th October for fright nights and the final ride we did was Saw. After what seemed like a forever wait in a queue we got on when it was pitch black and boy was it a rush, fantastic ride in the dark truly.
went on the same day as you, and saw was our last ride lmao
@@eddbris what time cause we got on after 7 in the end it was a while lmao
This is great, I can almost imagine what the ride would have been like if I’d got on it on fright nights this year! I’m heading back next year, off peak!
Creak Freak Massacre the ride would be absolutely amazing, great idea! I really think Thorpe should lean towards more original ideas and less IPs so this fits perfectly. Great video as always :]
Just like you, Thorpe means so much to me and to see it almost neglected like this is quite underwhelming. I think a problem I have with Black Mirror and Walking Dead the ride is that they're both very unlike their actual IPs (compared to Saw which goes into the theming quite well). Walking Dead just has a few zombies and the prison outside, and black mirror has a few Easter eggs referencing the show inside and that's it. As a fan of both shows they really don't amaze me that much, whereas a fan of Saw might be more impressed with Saw the ride.
More original ideas would be great and not feeling like they become more and more irrelevant!
Loudest sound in the world-SAW’s air blasters 😂❤
We used to live down the road from Thorpe Park and first time I went the most exciting thing they had there was the Cinema 180! For years Thorpe Park had so many issues with planning objections, that they couldn't build anything over a certain height. I also went to college in Egham and so many friends worked there over the seasons, that a lot of 1990-1992 was spent in the park. Saw is still my favourite ride there. The theming is very shoddy looking now, but even back then those mannequins looked ridiculous in the traps. There was never really anything hugely scary about the queue or the ride, but the indoor dark section always caught people off guard on their first ride. As much as i like it, those plans for the Woodie looked amazing. Hopefully the rumors of a RMC in the next few years come true.
Please bring an RMC to thorpe!
I'm so happy Saw the ride got a longer video, keep it up
One of my favourite film series and I've still never had the chance to ride.
Also everyone who sees this, the channel logo hoodie is literally amazing and so comfortable! Buy one! :')
Ahhhh thank you for getting one!
@@ExpeditionThemePark It's honestly even better than it looked in the photo and so soft.
It’s VERY accurate to the films (SAW 2-6 accurate I’d say) and is really fun :D
@@Randomperson-zt3il It looks amazing. I live up North and don't drive so it's hard to get to.
:O first time seeing a fellow pup out in the wild. Hey 🙋♀️🐾
It's nice to put a face to your voice lol. Love the classic home videos too - my parents have photos of me at Canada's Wonderland when I was 4 years old and I cherish them. Wonderland is my home park, and I may never get to Thorpe, but I watch all of your videos because they're so well produced, informative and entertaining. Great video and can't wait for the next!
Brilliant video and content for today. Saw is so well themed and is still a great coaster. Some are more rough than others. One of the best all round experiences in this country for sure.
Thanks for watching, any coaster with a theme is a win
@@ExpeditionThemePark Certainly one of the best around and your videos go in to more depth than any other coaster enthusiasts on you tube. Always great to hear the knowledge you have.👍👍
Respect for using the SAW 1 ending theme in the background! 😂
Hi thank you for doing an extended version of saw the ride all of your followers really appreciate it!
Hope you enjoy it!
Thank you so much for covering thorpe park rides I just love watching your videos and its so nice to see you making videos about my local park
The transition from the vertical lift to the more than 110° drop is such that you don't notice how steep it is. It's just an exhilarating ride, awesome :)
Its 100 degrees not 110
@@withfor0912 they advertised that it was 110°
"experience the thrill of the 110° drop, more than vertical, on Saw The Ride,"
@@SiVlog1989 Oh they must of got it wrong because it is 100 degrees
I am pretty curious to hear about the other failed rides and attractions based on franchises at Thorpe Park
I remember waiting in the queue for almost 3 hours the year this ride opened. I really can't recall the queue or inside being spooky at all? I've ridden it many times since but haven't been to Thorpe Park in years. The One thing I always remember about the ride is thinking you're going to collide with the big blades after you turn the corner at the start and then going down the mystery drop. A fun ride
Mainly just traps scattered throughout the queue
@@ExpeditionThemePark I think perhaps that wore off after hour 1 😂
You mentioned you'd review the walking dead ride in your last saw rollercoaster vid. I'm still waiting for it lol! In all seriousness tho, great vid. I love your stuff. I can't go to many of these parks, so I get to live vicariously through your vids 💖
It's coming soon, honest! Thanks for watching, hope you can get to them one day
You were totally spot on with everything you said about what Thorpe Park has become since the installation of this ride
Whilst Saw: The Ride is almost certainly a contributing factor to the current state of the park, I still love it for what it is
The direction of Thorpe Park is currently so lazy; as a visitor since only as far back as early 2015, all I've ever known is the removal/abandonment of fantastic rides, and the addition of family/children attractions and/or mediocre IP-themed teen/adult attractions
Merlin need to have a clear definition of what the target audience of the park is, as well as prioritising the quality of their attractions rather than how many tickets they sell on name alone
It's probably easy for us to say as park guests rather than employees within the amusement industry, but I personally look at the likes of Cedar Point and Emergylandia (who build world class rides that advertise themselves via word-of-mouth rather than the brand recognition of the earliest-avaliable outdated episodic series), and I wonder what can be. I don't want world class though; I just want something creative, effortful and sizable by our standards here in the UK. We can't ask for too much, but we can ask for better than what we see right now
I miss loggers leap so much :(
You and me both alex
I took this ride a few years ago, it’s really good. I love when they create attractions based on movie franchises
I know the feeling of being critical of your childhood park. My park is well over a 100 years old and in constant danger of being closed.
God i remember seeing this advert on the telly in primary school and talking about it with my friends in school about the blades being real and killing you hahaha
I actually really like TWD the Ride. Although I would've preferred a proper new coaster, I think it was still a great addition to the park's lineup and even better than X.
There was nothing more traumatic then the saw maze they got rid of. I was in middle school at the time and I remember finding it hard to see the exit for each room and the actors got very close
"Having a world's first - real or not - had to be in the press release. It's the *rules*" XD
Those are the rules!
I went to thorpe park last week and rode this, ive hardly rode any coasters before but glad I tried it, did enjoy it a lot. Only started trying coasters this year and only now have I realised what ive missed out on.
it makes me laugh so hard everytime they advertise the 100 foot drop like the scariest thing in the world
never been done before hah
I remember when Thorpe Park didn't have any rides at all! I remember it having a big Viking Themed area with big tents and boats and a mini model village. I've got photos of one of our days out there on my living room wall (including that rabbit ride featured here). That was also the day I fell over carrying a try full of chips on the paddle steamer while carrying them back to the table! That was a lot of money on the carpet that lunchtime!!
Whats the song you use towards the end of the video at 21min. I know its from Neverending Story, but i'm trying to find the exact song name online. Great choice by the way and great video!
Always do this ride first when I go to Thorpe… it gets so busy! Anyways, nice that you have a more in depth video about this, as I did think you touched on this ride before
Yeah a few years ago in 6 minutes. Thought it was time for a redo!
@@ExpeditionThemePark nice!
I totally understand how you feel. I sit here and watch the park I grew up with, The Great Escape, formerly Storytown, become less and less what I remember it. I just wish Six Flags would put more into it. One of the first things I remember about that park was when they put in the log flume, now called Desperado Plunge. Back then, the man that owned the place did what he thought was fun and exciting. He installed that ride, then installed the Steamin' Demon, which was the park's first inversion metal roller coaster. Both of those were game changers. It's just sad to see what's happening with it with Six Flags now. Even the Comet was something special when that opened. It's just sad they don't do more of that to make the park better.
God how I wished we got that woodie! 😫😫😫
Me too wah
Same here.
Me three
I think Thorpe will get one eventually and it will go one the island next to the swarm
probably my favourite Thorpe park ride! love it so much and also great video!
Thanks for watching
I've never been to Thorpe Park, but the one roller coaster I MUST check out is Saw: The Ride. From what I've seen, it looks awesome!!
I’d love it if they brought back the actors for Fright Nights, it’d be so cool to get a pre-show or jumpscare from John or Amanda or Mark when you’re walking in
I may actually go to Thorpe park next year. Alton towers added the stunning wickerman wooden coaster in 2018 and was the first in over 20 years in the uk
The theming in the queue building for this ride was pretty fantastic
Loved the ride especially the first few seasons with the actors but very rough now! Great content as usual buddy
Thanks Sam
I remember in year 10 the summer school trip was to Thorpe Park and this ride was a few months old. I had a lot of fun on this ride.
I thought there wasn't going to be the normal intro and I got all anxious!
Fantastic episode as always! I love the idea of re-theming and re-naming Saw to have something to do with the Buckwheats! I was actually thinking while on park, if I could re-theme any ride, which one? You just answered my question
The video overall is great, but I really have to give my props to whoever it was that did that pastiche of _Bastian's Happy Flight_ that's used in the background at 20:40. It takes a lot of work to make a not-cover like that. ^^
I’ve been on the Saw Ride multiple times, and I strongly remember riding it with a family friend who was just grinning away while everyone else was screaming. When I told my uncle about it he said ‘Well, he is Swiss.’
It’s been years and I think about it sometimes. I still have no idea what he meant by that
I luckily got to ride this on it's first week open and i had no idea at the time how new it was, my favorite ride ever since.
Yay Saw the ride! Happy Halloween Expedition Theme Park!
Happy Halloween!
@@ExpeditionThemePark Thanks!
I first did it in 2016 when I was 11 and found it the scariest ride ever. I had nightmares for 2 weeks but now I love it
This roller coaster is what got me into the SAW movies
It's actually really cool how they theme these roller coasters.
"Everytime you scream.... Gas will be blown into your face. You have 10 seconds, you have 5 seconds- GAS!"
finally thorpe has a new coaster coming right next to saw
Brilliant as always dude xx
Thanks Mike
i remember the first time i rode this i was so scared i almost had a panic attack in the station before going on the ride. but now its my most fav coaster in the park.
