- Join us as we walk The Big Dipper at Blackpool Pleasure Beach! Walk The Woodie is one of the unique experiences offered by the park and in this vlog we learn about the history of this 100 year old wooden roller coaster, along with walking parts of the track. We also enjoy stunning views across the park including unique angles of ICON, The Big One, Steeplechase and many more Pleasure Beach classics!

Never done anything like this before, I hope to do so in the future! Hope you had a fantastic birthday, Shawn!
It was brilliant!
Fantastic video as always guys!! With the Big Dipper being such an important piece of BPBs amazing history, I'm so glad they are giving her the tlc she deserves this year...the big 100! Happy birthday to Shaun and the legend that is the Big Dipper! 🎂🎉🎈
It was great to see the work taking place!
I love how the park surprised Shawn with that little treat and the view from the top of the first drop was incredible. Hope you guys had a nice time and happy birthday Shawn!
It was amazing!
So interesting to see you walk the line Shawn and Charlotte!...Happy birthday Shawn!
Thank you, we loved it!
Happy birthday Shawn 30 years old WOW I’m so proud of you and all so I can’t forget lovely Charlotte I love you Shawn and Charlotte xxxx
Thank you!
Currently in the middle of repainting the whole big dipper ride with our team, so awesome to see you notice and appreciate it man! 🤙🏻
Amazing! We can’t wait to see the end result!
Happy 30th Shawn, what an amazing experience, for both you, and Charlotte, great views, and perfect weather as well!
It was brilliant!
Never been to Blackpool pleasure beach, but I have been to the Great Yarmouth one
A great video, I enjoy seeing these of the PB Dipper walks. I walked the Cyclone at Southport without a harness or anything else many years ago during an event. Having grown up with the PB group woodies as my staple (including Morecambe) I've a passion for the older woodies and had a plan to offer refurb programmes for the PB woodies in recent years, but without a company of my own to provide... this is slowly now coming together. During the pandemic I landed a job with a UK based company that has built and refurbed many woodies across the world, including building for Vekoma RMC (including both the original build and the RMC makeover of Robin Hood/Untamed) but the pandemic and politics saw that job become non-existent. I studied a Swedish RMC plan at one time and having the original drawings for Thundercoaster at Tusenfryd which was designed by a friend (the same whom redesigned the PMBO in 1995) I worked on plans to retrofit a 90 degree bank to Thundercoaster.
I knew Keith Allen well and got to know Geoffrey Thompson through a mutual railway interest (once had a beer on his lawn chatting railways and coasters while his mother Doris sat under a sun shade) - I've been to places at PB that official tours don't yet go, but that was all a good many years ago and I've no links there now, but funding permitting I should have a company formed within the next year to bring the traditional woodie back to the market, with a modern twist re materials, construction and reliability...
Hooked by your Nemesis updates BTW - the rebirth of possibly the best coaster the UK has ever known.
I absolutely love blackpool been going to it 47 years as my mum was from blackpool and a massive coaster fan. She gave me and my brother the bug, every year as kids hoping we were tall enough to ride the next thing. Im still to ride ikon but have done everything else on the park multiple times. What an amazing experience for you on your 30th.
I have only just discovered your channel but i love your vlogs and your chemistry together on screen and your sheer enthusiasm and knowledge are great to see.
Im hoping to get to blackpool at some point this year and get my kids to experience all the thrills i got to enjoy as they are all now big enough.
Keep up the work guys love you vids.
What an amazing thing to do and for us to experience it with you. To see all those coasters entwined is amazing. So glad you had an awesome birthday xx
Happy birthday! I went there 1 day before Valhalla went with my best friend, we both love your channel and hoped we saw you but sadly we didn’t 😢❤
Thank you!
amazing video!
happy birthday shawn
Thanks!
Happy birthday, it seems like this might have been one of your best birthdays🎂 🥳🥳🥳
It definitely was!
Happy birthday shaun hope you had a great day.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY 🎉
Icon looks incredible. Underrated ride imo from enthusiast's
It’s a brilliant ride
30 wow happy birthday mate. Them grey hairs are coming through haha
I haven't been here since before icon was built sadly but it really does go to show how much you can pack in when you're working with a small amount of space! I love steeple chase 😅 never realised how close everything is when on the rides! (Or I've forgotten!)
What a fantastic experience! 😊
HAPPY BIRTHDAY young man. Hope you have a fantastic day.
I WANNA DO THIS!!! Blackpool is my fave theme park in England!!
Happy Birthday buddy. Hope you had a fantastic day and what a great present from Charlotte.
Really interesting video guys ❤
And what a lovely thing BPB did for your birthday.❤
Thank you!
its such an amazing coaster and happy birthday shawn have a great one!
Fab idea walking the dipper… why not have a next challenge of “ forward rolling “ the next one instead of walking it.. it’d be just like riding it but more exhilarating!!! Waaaaaaahhaaaaaaaaooooooooy!!👍
"...Infusion, my personal favourite ride".
😅😅😅 ha, love it
Brilliant vlog, so interesting and Andy is very knowledgeable.
Thank you!
Happy Birthday Shawn, hope you had a great day yesterday!
Happy Birthday Shawn.. hey to Ms Charlotte
Happy Birthday Shawn 🎉🎁🎂

We love it!
Happy 30th Shawn!! What a great way to celebrate a milestone birthday. 🎉😊
Thank you
happy birthday mate love ur vids
Happy birthday Shawn! Hope you had a great day!
Happy Birthday Shawn
30 amazing years, Shawn!
When you look at the old pathe footage from 1926. People appear to stand up at the top of each hill to get extra whip, so I wonder whether there were NO seat belts or bar at that time especially in other for people to stand up whilst its moving.
Happy birthday Shawn🎂
Happy birthday Shawn. Walk With Me Tim did a similar stunt a couple of years ago with the roller coaster at Great Yarmouth Pleasure Beach. Check out his vlog.
Thank you. It was a great experience!
That's so nice the team gave you a birthday treat. It's looks delicious! Hope you enjoyed your day!
It was very kind of them!
happy birthday Shawn!
What's next for Pleasure Beach now Valhallas done and Big Dipper nearly complete as is the Big One retrack. Grand National is well over due an overhaul and repaint. Me personally I would like to see some of the Unused areas get reused for something like Space Invader 2 building could have a ride inside, Fy4 could also have an upgrade. But what are your thoughts
I’d love to see something done with FY4
Fantastic video. Thanks so much for sharing that. It’s not something i’d be able to do so was nice to experience it via you guys. The photos were amazing!x happy birthday!
Thanks for joining us!
Happy birthday shawn🎉 awesome interesting video ❤👍
Great view of the cake, this seems like a cool experience, although the ride looks like it would be hella scary being that high
It’s great fun!
Happy birthday buddy . Can’t believe you’re thirty !! Crazy how time flies , I remember when u first started and how far you have come ,where you have gone and what you have done . You’re both living the dream . Here’s to many more adventures for you both ❤

Happy birthday Shawn - pleased you got the experience you deserve with the perfect weather and time of day! You're such a big part of the UK theme park industry these days so here's to another 30 years of vlogs and dragging Charlotte on water rides :D
Thank you, it was a brilliant birthday!
Brilliant video as allways so brave to walk that I could never do it love roller coasters but if I had to think about the height I would never do them glad you had a fantastic birthday Happy 30th Shawn x😊 Charlotte I also love it now you are full time together it makes it even more fantastic to watch x
Thank you!
happy birthday,great experience
Happy 30th Birthday Shawn.
I'm a bit older than you at 44 years of age.
Hope you had a good day buddy.
This is a very very interesting vlog.
Thanks a lot Shawn & Charlotte.
I have been watching Theme Park Worldwide now for about 6 years since 2017.
Alton Towers should do something like this so then they could call it (Walk The Woodie, Wicker Man).
Stay safe guys.
Thanks for your support!
Over the past year with the engagement and charlotte going fulltime the channel has become incomplete without charlotte and her setting up this brilliant experience for shawns 30th shows how much he means to her happy 30th shawn
Thank you so much, it was an amazing experience!
@@ThemeParkWorldwide it looked amazing I hope to do it when I go to Blackpool cant wait for the America trip and charlottes reaction to walk the big one XL
I worked on big dipper last season love big dipper one of my faves I'm a thoosie n seeing stuff for the first time like some of what you guys had seen is so cool! Especially when you learn the break box too!
It’s such a classic!
Cool video
Many happy returns Shawn, no better way to celebrate your 30th. Awesome indeed👍🎢
HAPPY BIRTHDAY SHAWN X😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
I honestly thought this was a bit of a surprise from Charlotte for your birthday, but it felt more like a coincidence-but there's not many other things that could surpass that for a birthday and on it
It was a fantastic birthday present!
Fantastic video with awesome views and the weather was brilliant,don't think you mentioned it(much)lol
Thank you!
I used to be out being social on a Saturday night. Now here I am watching people walk a rollercoaster 😂. How time flies lmao
Thanks for watching!
Happy Birthday Shawn! A bit out of context but im going to ride Shambhala later this year which I know opened on your birthday.
Have a great time!
Happy birthday Shawn!🎉 Looks like you both had an amazing time! Nearly share the same birthday mines on the 10th
Thanks!
Love the ride walk. I have walk the Scenic railway roller coaster Great Yarmouth before
It was great fun!
Happiest birthday to my favorite guy that started dating charlotte theme park worldwide happy 11 anniversary
Thank you!
Really interesting to learn the history of the big dipper with its changes and requirement of manual operation still to today, makes you appreciate the ride even more! ❤ Hopefully I am not the only one thinking the second presenter was really quiet during the presentation until I realised at the end it was a mannequin 😂
It’s such a great classic!
Another fantastic video from you both,came down from Scotland to do it but my back decided it didn’t want to walk up the Big Dipper,although after watching your video I think I might keep my Pleasure Beach experiences to lower down in the future ,so glad you had a special birthday at Blackpool Pleasure Beach,another 5* vlog .
Sorry to hear that. Thanks for watching!
This must be the best birthday gift ever!! 🎉🎢
It was great!
So many interesting and historical facts throughout this video, absolutely enjoyed this from start to finish. Some epic brilliant perspective views that you never capture whilst riding. Can't say enough of how much I enjoyed, didn't wanna write an essay though. Thank you so much for this. Also a very happy birthday to you Shawn!
Thanks for joining us!
Agreed, I would be over the moon of twinkly festoon LEDs all along the handrails down the first drop in along all the prominent parts of the road, not just the front would make it the best illuminated Woody on Park and one of the best illuminated rides on Park in general😁
Annoyingly, I was going to suggest that to Amanda for this anniversary last year, but I never got a chance to suggest it to her.
That would be great to see!
Great video. Many Happy Returns to Shawn and the Dipper. Can't agree with Andy though......its a Teardrop not an Onion 😀😜
Happy 30th birthday Shawn!! Hope you and Charlotte had a great day at Pleasure Beach :) 🥳🥳
Views and atmosphere with the sunset 🌅. Awesome 🎢
Happy 30th birthday Shawn hope u have a fantastic time 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Excellent video Shawn and Charlotte from Walked The Big Dipper At Blackpool Pleasure Beach - Walk The Woodie!>
Happy birthday Shawn as well. , keep the good videos coming on the channel Shawn and Charlotte. 😀🎂🧁
Charlotte, what an excellent birthday gift for Shawn! Then I realized that I've been watching since you were 18 or 19 Shawn and its been a pleasure ... HAPPY BIRTHDAY!! 🌭🎂🍪🥳🍩
It was great fun!
I tried to ride the big dipper at geauga lake after it closed. We disconnected one of the cars on the train and pushed it up the hill 🤣. Good thing I checked the track a tree grew through the track. I woild have died haha
Happy Birthday Shawn!! ❤❤ a truly an awesome experience thank you for taking us along on it.
It was great fun!
Happy birthday shawn
Happy birthday Shawn I need to visit pleasure beach this year great video again
I love your channel hope you had fun
Happy birthday mate 👍👍👍
Happy birthday shuan!!❤
What an amazing experience! 🎢
Happy birthday Shawn. Great birthday present this.
Darren did a lot of this on his Adventure Me channel when he walked the Big Dipper, and it was all super interesting. Now I’m watching you do it and it’s still super interesting. Love it.
The curve after the first small lift hill used to be enclosed before it began the climb up the main lift hill.
It was great fun!
Happy birthday shawn from shaun
I loved turtle chase when I was little!!! Xxx
I think BPB should add a large scale Gravity Group woodie like Hades 360, Only problem is space.
I’d love to see a new ride in the FY4 area next!
Wishing you all the very best on your 30th Shawn! A great present from Charlotte that 👍 Another great watch, we enjoy them all but that Big Dipper walk looked brilliant, and Andy always seems a great guide. We have booked tickets for the Big Dipper 100th birthday party which should be a special night. Also have to say the Valhalla vlogs have been great from you both over recent times, so impressive with fantastic detail through the ride, and nicely balanced and fair with your technical rehearsals review whereas some channels were too negative early on riding it and hadn't given Pleasure Beach chance to get everything in working order. Anyway good luck and sure we'll catch you both at BPB over the months ahead!
Thanks for joining us!
What a cool and exciting b-day gift! Thanks for letting us go along with you! Vicky H
