Another cool tidbit is when you're walking from the Jurassic park area into the velocicoaster area you can hear the music change to stay current with the franchises. One of my favorite moments
Easily the most exciting rollercoaster at Universal and one of the best in the world. The theming is topnotch from start to finish. You feel like you're at Jurassic Park and the are part of the experiment. The twist and turns are quick and relentless, diving and swooping above and below, but never uncomfortable IMO. That couple-of-second hang time is pretty fun also.
The VelociCoaster was actually my very first roller coaster. It set a very high bar for me, and I loved it. Seeing this video makes me realize how crazy it was for this to be my first!
@@Jai8959i rode it this past weekend. the drop is honestly the least intense part.. i didn’t really feel it since you go over it so fast and i was in the last car.
Its funny that, even though it would have been fully in theme, Velocicoaster's story is one of the rare Universal thrill rides where nothing goes wrong
LOL! Seriously… though I’ve always interpreted the the part where you see the Raptors them trying to get at you and you get launched out to “escape” the paddock
Just rode it for my 5th time yesterday. Both of my friends were so scared of coasters but I forced them on. After it they were no longer scared of coaster and said it was one of the best expieriences of their life. There is no coaster like it!
Great video but here’s some other fun facts. Did you know that Universal had already conceptualized this ride way back in 2001? It was gonna be called Raptor Racers which was going to be a part of a phase 2 expansion of the park alongside other ride concepts such as the Mount Krumpit Coaster. For some reason Universal shelved the planned expansion either because of budget issues, poor park attendance, or possibly even because of the September 11 terror attacks which happened the year in which the project was planned. Luckily Universal revived the concept into Velocicoaster and even kept a specific detail from the original concept which was that after going through raptor infested jungles, passengers were going to pass under black lights or projections and see their ride vehicle completely torn up by raptor claw marks before arriving back at the station. Even though this doesn’t happen in Velocicoaster, there is a subtle nod to this idea through a raptor claw mark branding the left side of the first train. Other Easter eggs happen to also come from ride concepts. Originally the ride was going to feature many different dinosaurs from the Jurassic World Films including the T-Rex and even The Indominous Rex. Another dinosaur that was going to be included was going to be the mosasaur which actually would’ve been an animatronic. From the concepts it looks like during the mosasaurus roll, the dinosaur itself would’ve actually popped up under the riders nearly missing them. It would’ve worked similar to how the Jaws shark animatronic works in Hollywood but most likely due to budget or safety reasons it was cut. This was probably the reason why the roll itself is named after the dinosaur.
@VincentVision I love all the attention to details, easter eggs and history you put into the video on VelociCoaster! Thank you, can you please do similar videos of other Universal rides like this? Great job!
I remember riding it back in 2021 when it had just opened, power walking to it right after the parks opened and right at the top of the hill I remember feeling my whole body floating for seconds that felt like minutes! and I could get a good view of the whole park right before the lap restraint pulled be back into the drop. my favorite coaster so far!
LoL great intro Vincent. The Velocicoaster is one of the best rides,we like Hagrads because of all the dynamic elements to it. But you're not kidding, don't know why they spent the money on seats, you're never in them LoL. Such a great ride. It's so smooth, doesn't bounce your head around like the Hulk does. thanks for going through the queue! We've ridden several times but always go through single rider. Very fun and enjoyable deep dive into the coaster, is this going to a series on the channel?
This ride is absolutely insane omg you have to go on this!!! That being said if you have people that are on the fence this is not the ride to trick someone into because it is s ary coming out of that seat
Few things I want to share from VelociCoaster! :) There is Dino Chow bag from the Triceratops encounter hidden inside the paddock and very difficult to see unless pointed out under the second inversion. The Raptors at the Raptor Stables are Delta at Express line side and Echo (not Charlie) at the Stand-by side, they also have their own scent inside that room and on the ride in the first launch scene. The lobby statue of all 4 raptors, the rv behind them is missing a cart(VelociCoaster rvs have 12 rows, the statue rv only 10 rows), and a bunch more of cool details around the VelociCoaster Facility.
@@VincentVision Hagrid's magical creatures motorbike adventure 😁 tho it is a close race 😁 my number 3 always surprises people.. it's Popeyes and Blutos bilgrate barges
My last trip to Universal was just before Covid closures. Now, my eye doctor has told me I shouldn't go on any roller coasters that spin me upside-down. Other coasters are okay, but no loops or rolls upside-down. I am *so* disappointed I can't ride this thing! Everyone who can should go on this before something happens that prevents you from riding it!
@Jai8959 There's some kind of small flaw in the way the retina is attached. Apparently it could become detached if jerked around combined with the increased pressure of being upside-down. I don't recall the details.
Thank you for saying all the syllables in pteronodon. I felt gaslighted to call it pteradon because all the vloggers don't pronounce all the syllables. Thank you.
@@Jai8959 100 percent will be going on it again “passholder”. I probably passed out for a quick sec but it was so accelerating! Highly recommend! The first launch definitely freaked me out a bit but you get over it quick!
Dude you talked for 11 minutes about the #1 rollercoaster in the world and didn't mention the creator and manufacturer.......INTAMIN!!!! Shame on you 😤
Don’t talk about it…I swear I recorded something talking about inter-man and how they made Hagrid and Gringotts for Universal but it completely slipped away from me while editing
Your biggest error is that is not the actual actors from Jurassic Park. Those are deep fakes. And the Incredible Hulk roller coaster is now so rough that is not an enjoyable ride anymore.

The only coaster I feel even comes close in FL is mako at SeaWorld. Or iron quasi at BG. But ya this is definitely number one even if it’s close!!

Yes! It’s something to be proud of…VelociCoaster is intense!
was it scary for you? Also, does it have a drop in have a climb and a drop at the very beginning? I don't like the drops.
@@Jai8959i rode it this past weekend. the drop is honestly the least intense part.. i didn’t really feel it since you go over it so fast and i was in the last car.

Thank you Mark! I had a great time making this one. What other rides do you think would be cool to see? I’m thinking Forbidden Journey
Hagrids would be awesome if not already done.
My favorite rollercoaster! I can only ride it twice in a row, otherwise it’s getting to my head. Thanks for making this interesting video

Is single rider how it sounds: one person in a row??
It's so very exciting, i can't wait to try it
Great Video!🎉 Love Jurassic Park/Dinosaur 🦖 🦕 videos❤❤
Good video. Keep these up

Yo Jason Schwartzman is definitely your doppleganger! 😂 Great video 👍🏼

REALLLL LIVEEE RAPTORSSS - Mr DNA
awesome shirt
1:21 Hey, it's my friend Phil!
Wow, what’s he up to now?
@VincentVision Last I knew he had gotten married to a Jaws skipper. I met him when Kong closed and they put him at Quake.
based by universal and wikipedia, velocicoaster goes 70 mph 😊! Good video tho!!
My second favorite ride 😁
What’s your first?

I think about events like this often. About things I should do before I am unable. If you don't mind me asking, what would be the risk?

When he says the best He is 100% Right If I could I would ride this Ride 100 times Its that Good 😎Also I wonder when the Indominus Rex is coming 👀
This was my first roller coasterI ever went on. Yea I went from 0 to 100 that day 😂
lol definitely went from 0-100 instantaneously. Would you get on again? How did you like it? How did it feel?

Hulk was completely redone in 2018
Why are you spreading dumb misinformation? It's the actual actors.
