This was the perfect video to show my BF the trauma this ride Gave me, I was four and went on this ride with my dad, the one chef animatronic was malfunctioning and the babe and Paul ones scared me enough to cause me to cry I even hide down on the floor of the log and then my dad pulled me up afterwards and then I saw that miner guy and thought he was real but we got closer and I realized he wasn't and scared me more. The ride would've been fun for me as a child if t weren't for those horrifying animatronics
@@RickyVentures it helped a little, but the size of baby and Paul scared me the most plus Paul was having a few issues but me and my BF plan on going there one day together so I can show him just how terrifying it is. P.s. it's very hard to scare me so it makes me happy knowing something this simple scares me.
what an absolutely incredible log ride!!!!!! its so tragic these things are being removed every where. log jammer at magic mountain was my fav next to knotts log ride. this one was made by the same dude that designed the one at knotts. i can tell for sure...
My poor niece is there now, and just went on this. I had to TH-cam it to see how bad it was cause my brother sent me the pic of her crying. She’s so little she felt like she was gonna fall out and now doesn’t want to ride any other rides. I feel so bad :(
I'm sure it takes work to keep it in good repair. There plans to build a whole water park on the Northside parking lot of the mall. Think that might break ground soon.
having worked in amusement parks its likely this is a ride they sacrifice for Staffing issues in the park when they cant' get more staff in and probably also closes in shifts sio thst they can run breaks.
This was earlier this summer. They seem to have enough staff on the weekends. Weekdays are hit or miss. Thanks for watching! Be sure to subscribe and check out the rest of the channel.

After watching this, I can now say this ride seemed a lot more scary when I was like 5 and rode it for the first time 😂
It's very nostalgic!
Paul Bunyan swinging the giant axe and then that massive plunge with no seat belt, absolutely traumatizing in the best way.
This takes me back down memory lane when I was like 9 years old on this log ride
For me it was fun when I was 5, then when I was older it was horrifying.
Was it camp snoopy then?

Yikes! Sorry for the trauma. Hope the video was therapeutic. Please share with your family and friends!

Nice very entertaining. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
My favorite ride of all time!! Thank u for sharing!
Glad you enjoyed it! More ride videos coming!
I wish there was smell-o-vision on these MOA videos, such a trip, I miss going here every summer with my family
So glad I can help bring back great family memories!
I remember riding this ride as a kid back when the park was called Camp Snoopy.
It's a classic!
WOW that was FUN their was PAUL BUNYAN looking for the BLUE OX where oh oh where was HE !!! That was Fun Thanks Ricky !!!
Hello! Thanks for watching.
Yes, BLUE was there right before Paul but hard to see with the lighting.
@@RickyVentures Love My Paul & Blue Ox!!! Linda P.
My absolute favorite ride at the mall of America :D
It is a fantastic ride!
It's the oldest ride in the park and Nickelodeon declined to retheme it since it's theme is Minnesota history and lore.
i love this ride! my brother and i would always go when we visited my grandma in minnesota :)
It's a classic!
Over here because of For Your Amusement podcast!

Yes, very fun!
That was a different kinda ride.
Thanks for watching. So many fun rides.
Hey Ricky that was a pretty cool ride ☺️
Thanks for watching. It's a lot of fun!
Nice to find a night POV of this
It's a fun ride!
3:31 I remember every time i would eat lunch there, i would stand by the ride and scream at riders to stan Loona (I sometimes still do that)
Lol. That's great.
I love this ride but my only complaint is no safety restraints like lap bars
So is this ride open for the public right now 4/16/2022?
It's been open lately if they have staff. Seems weekends it usually is open now. Weekdays are hit or miss.
I'm surprised they never installed seatbelts on it. But I'm glad they don't mess with this gem.

@@chimneychap5142 you can't really install Seatbelts on a classic log flume. It's a handelbar and stirrup ride.
Is this in the mall of America cus if it is I fe been on it and I hate it
Yes. This is at the mall of america.
Giant Paul Bunyan rules
He and BLUE are very cool!
Is this ride still running in 2024 with Paul Bunyan and Babe inside?
Yes it is l. Still looks the same inside!
Its so crazy MOA just has a free floating river 3 stories high. I always wondered if it would start leaking
I'm sure it takes work to keep it in good repair. There plans to build a whole water park on the Northside parking lot of the mall. Think that might break ground soon.
It’s been open the days I’ve gone during the week a Wednesday and Friday
Glad they have it back open more!
That ride was so scary as a kid lol
This ride and Rainforest Cafe are the main causes of my Automatonophobia.
I went on it today and when I went to go see the photos I was SCARED, I had my eyes closed. and a 40 foot drop going pretty fast is kinda scary
I hope you had a great time!
@@RickyVentures I did have a great time! I concurred my fear of the ride
They're showing that this ride is temporarily closed. Looks like you got one in just in time!
It's hit or miss depending on the day. Seems its usually open on weekends now.
having worked in amusement parks its likely this is a ride they sacrifice for Staffing issues in the park when they cant' get more staff in and probably also closes in shifts sio thst they can run breaks.
I rode this back in 2010 when I went there for the first time.
Hope you have a great time!
if they ever get rid of this ride i will riot
It's pretty cool ride.
I thought it was closed, how did you get on? That’s so cool

Hi, may I use some of your footage for a video?
Send me an email and we can discuss.
I decided against using it, thanks@@RickyVentures
Came here to see if Paul Bunyan was worth my nightmares when I was 10……
Verdict: Babe is still worthy of my nightmares. Paul is fine.
Yeah, babe is a little scary looking.
this is like splash mountain. but in minnesota
Great description! 👍
Nah when I tried it the first time that last drop got me😂
AIso i did it today!
Awesome. It's a fun ride!
When I first went on this I thought the log literally fell 25 feet straight down
It's a fun ride. I think the first drop is almost as good as the second!
I’m lucky that the last time I went on the animatronics were off
Yeah, they can be a little spooky!
this ride was traumatizing when i was 5 😭😭
I could see it being scary for a little kid!
Nah Paul always scared me
Lol
So its a pretty calm ride, right? I hate rides that have steep drops and stuff😂
Yeah. It family friendly. Even the drop is not that bad.
log chute in a mall
@@emilleyanderson1909 I know! Crazy 🤪
I se nothing nickelodeon about this
When nickelodeon took over they didn't change this ride or the haunted house ride?
Would have ruined it to retheme it
Cuddlies🩷❤️🧡🩵
Thanks!
