Roller Coaster has got to be one of the most bland names for a coaster.
But at least it means it has the best theming!
@@triplej755 most of the time yes but sometimes can be a bit bland. Roller Coaster at lagoon does look to have some good theming
wooooosh
Comment.
I’m not interested in riding Roller Coaster 1.
I think the most overused names for a coaster are "roller coaster", "Boomerang", " batman the ride", and "Goliath".
You mean the Batman and the Goliath at Six Flags?
Can agree
It’s kind of like naming your SLC “Suspended Looping Coaster”
What about the name "Zephyr"
@@joeygassmann5595 No, I think they mean the one at Six Flags.
Crazy, mad, wild - a lot of mice with mental health issues.
Great video! I enjoyed watching! I have a little dipper near me in Camden Park in Huntington WV.
Nice work, and thanks for the credit on the Spinning Coaster picture. Also, how did you get all the RCDB list into Excel?
I was ready to be disappointed by roller coast not being #1. Now I'm perfectly satisfied.
I was expecting a lot of Vipers and Boomerangs on this list... boy I was wrong
I'm not sure if there are enough of them, maybe if you include defunct, but a prime ride time video on Premier's coasters would be interesting.
Dang, I would love to see some of the excel magic you used to sort all this. Impressive!
Not as fancy as you would expect, i wish i had access to their database but i was relegated to copying and pasting every page into excel and using a pivot table on the coaster names
And this is only with english names, cause at Tibidabo (Spain) we have Muntanya Russa, wich is catalan for Roller Coaster, wich would increase that count... And surely there are more hidden among the list
Gotta be honest, i wasn't expecting a video about coaster names but i'm all for it 👍
I'm suprised "corkscrew" didn't make the list.
I think the most overrated and overused names for roller coasters are "Scenic Railway", "Comet", "Wild Mouse", and "Cyclone" in my opinion. @Christian Ortiz , I apologize if this comment copied yours, I couldn't find any ideas for my comment.
I feel like any major park would name a new coaster something other than the most used or iconic (Cyclone or Wildcat). Small parks naming after well known is understandable. The Wild Mouse type is what that type is known of being. Then there is Six Flags with Goliath.
What about Wooden Coaster 1?
First one that came to mind was definitely Goliath... surprisingly it's not there
Pacific Northwest by the numbers
Just the entire DC universe.
Where would the six flags coasters like Goliath and batman the ride sat on this list ..
Buy or sell: Dino-land USA at Animal Kingdom will be replaced by 2023
Sell
Viper is one. Even before watching this video.
Obviously Goliath or joker
“How many coasters do you want named Goliath”
Six Flags: Yes
How many coasters do you want named Batman?
SF: Yes
"How many coasters do you want named Joker"
SF: yes
How about Superman
yea but there is also Superman _____ ____ ______ _____
Viper
Mind Eraser
Superman
Roadrunner Express
Twisted or Cyclone
Joker
Goliath would be such an awesome name… if only…
Yeah
Goliath is an awesome name when used correctly
Thats what I've always thought. It works soooo well on a coaster.
@@Zatoka. i agree, for example: a big, giant coaster
@@mr.z_yt Yes! Or, a big giant coaster from a knock off B&M company!
first (huge fan and one of the best coaster channels of all time because of ur rankings and commentary) btw been following u for years.
Haven’t watched yet but Wild Mouse has to be on here
#2
#1 in USA
There should be more Butterfly Models. I feel like that’s a perfect first backwards coaster experience for kids
Brands tend to have brand names. I don’t think Batman’s and Superman’s are over used. If there were 10 Disney Magic Kingdom parks, there would be 10 Big Thunder Mountains and 10 Space Mountains. There are allot of Batman’s and Superman’s because there are allot of Six Flags parks.
"ROLLERCOASTER"- "DRAGON" calling it before I even watch!
People think that Main Street is the most popular/used name for streets in America. It's actually Frontage Road. Roller Coaster is about a s LaZy as you can get in naming a roller coaster except Rollo Coaster.
What about Rollie’s Coaster
06:09 in German, roller coasters are called "Achterbahn" what actually means "figure eight".
As someone who has spent a lot of time looking up coasters in china for list videos I'm astounded that Jungle Trailblazer isn't on here.
China is so fucking bad at naming rides
there’s only like, 6- i think
Doesn’t feel like that when you’re scrolling RCDB at 3am
It surprises me what names Six Flags doesn't use more often, like the one Tatsu and only a couple Ninjas; or DC characters that deserve more than just one coaster, like Green Lantern and The Flash.
There are probably even way more coasters named 'roller coaster' out there if you into account the coasters that are just named 'roller coaster' but in a different language. Like as a Dutch person, there are multiple coasters named 'Achtbaan' (the Dutch world for roller coasters) in our country. Same goes for Germany (Achterbahn in German) and also montana rusa in a lot of latin languages, I'm guessing that's the same for many and I mean MANY other languages and coasters around the world.
Some of them for me are coaster, cyclone, Goliath, and batman the ride.
Or Mind Eraser, Viper, twisted, steel, timber, racer, or boomerang
I was thinking Twister was there. There’s a lot of those weather based names, but you covered Cyclone and Tornado.
It should be ILLEGAL to reuse a coaster name unless it's actually a clone, and even then it should be required to have a modifier. Ie: Chicago's Batman, LA's Batman, etc.
"RANKING ALL COASTERS NAMED WILD MOUSE IN THE US"
Chris... awhile back you showed interests in my idea of "List of Coasters that have Premiered in Movies&shows!" ... still interested?
I can provide all I can think of. You could pair with footage from movie & coaster in life, etc.
Figure eight closely resembles the Dutch word for roller coaster, namely 'achtbaan' (literally eight-track or eight-course).
I was WAY beyond sick of anything named batman and superman years ago. Surprised those didn't make this list.
Great video!!! You crack me up with the Figure Eight coaster….
“You wanna ride it, too bad” 😂
All of these overused names and we still don't have a Fiery Fist o' Pain
there is an Intamin SLC in finland named tornado which i think is one of the better ones!
Surprised Comet wasn’t on here
The WIldcat is closed at Hershey Park.
Was looking for Montana Russa & Jet Coaster.
Wildcat
Which coasters would you rename or retheme
1-Batman
2-Batman
3-Batman
Video Idea: Top 15 coasters less tall than the speed of the fastest coaster. Where you count down the top 15 coasters less than 150 (the fastest coaster in the world’s speed) ft.
Corkscrew and Goliath
Rollercoaster tycoon would be proud
2 video ideas:
The longest rollercoaster names
The shortest coaster names
(In characters)
Hagrid’s Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure
X2 (Formerly X)
@@davidchuong714Wally Wirral Wriggling Wacky Worm or something it's so long I can't remember
There’s also, boomerang, Leap-the-dips, twister, pandemonium (kinda), Goliath, Corkscrew, Racer, Jack Rabbit, Comet, Flying Turns (I think), and I can go on and on.
Can you share the spread sheet
So many generic names.
I did a Pareto, the video. As someone that has to data crunch I truly appreciate this. Great Work!
“I’m a Roller Coaster enthusiast”
“Oh sick man, did you see what RMC did to Wildcat at Hershey?”
“Nah man, I’m a Roller Coaster Enthusiast not a Roller Coaster Enthusiast”
I would have thought the name "Corkscrew" would be an honorable mention.
How about best themes
How did you get all the coasters on RCDB into Excel? I'm guessing you didn't type them in by hand..
Copy paste from hundreds of pages
@@AirtimeThrills That's some dedication lol
@@ZZCoasters yeah it took maybe 15-20 minutes and it hurt a bit but it's way less research than I normally do so it was worth it
what are the best types of restraints, just curious
B&M’s Hyper coaster ‘clamshell’ and Intamin’s Pantheon swing launch coaster restraints are my two favorites.
On the flip side, RMC coasters are extremely thrilling but I can’t stand their shin splinter leg restraints. Very uncomfortable.
How did Montana Rusa not make the list. Technically it could be combined with Roller Coaster. It’s English translation is “Russian Mountain,” but it’s definition matches that of the English words roller coaster. Rcdb shows 52, with six others starting with or containing the words montanarusa.
Commenting before I watch: Batman, Goliath, Wildcat/mouse, Millenium Force
I went into this video thinking Goliath and Batman: The Ride were the most common 💀😭
Did the count include coasters called “Rollercoaster” in other languages such as Rutschebanen at Tivoli Gardens? If not, it could be a lot higher.
Is it bad that I like wild mouse type coasters?
Not at all. They're good for people afraid of heights, and good ones provide plenty of laterals and sometimes some nice pops of airtime.
Family Roller Coaster at Wildlife World Zoo in AZ is close enough to Family Coaster haha 😂😂🤣🤣
There’s a gajillion parks out there with the name happy valley. I must say though I think that’s a good name for an amusment park. It’s simple, but it rolls right off the tongue
Yep and makes stuff very confusing for me when researching
awsum vid as usual... interesting how you say how many coasters use a name but are different... a follow up video could be how many share a name and/or are the same coaster clone.... batman has got to be up near the top on that one...
I was about to say actually there is a Family Coaster at a zoo in Arizona so there's definitely more than one... Looked it up though and that one is called Family Roller Coaster, so a near miss!
The coaster I've ridden the most times in the world is Dragon Coaster at Canobie Lake Park, because: dad.
Off topic from video here but maybe a ranking video on rides with the worse operations ? At bgt iron gwazi dispatches are glacier
Great american scream machine is a name that should have been used once IMO. if x2 wasnt named x2 that would be it .
Little Dipper I think has over 80 as most of the hercell kiddie dippers were named that, don’t know if it’s on here tho
i feel like i’m the only one excited abt wild mouse but the same people who cry that wicked twister is gone never rode it when it was open 😭😭
Already liked it because your videos are good, every time.
Not at all what I was expecting. I just got schooled! Thanks for posting!
And yet no SIx Flags Coaster actually make this list? 😲😯😮
1:25 also they all have incredible trains
You should do a video on the best defunct/abandoned amusement parks if you haven’t already
They had a whacky worm at a music festival I went to. Wasn't waiting a hour
👍Next: Top 20 most Unique coaster names. My #1 choice "These United States"
Anything involving lightning 🤮
(except lightning rod, that gets an exception 🙂)
Video idea:
What coasters would you rename, and what would you rename them
Went to a state fair with a Wacky Worm named "Wacky Cowboy" which had art of mice dressed as cowboys. I kept getting confused and calling it a Wild Mouse, lol.
I was expecting Big Dipper
When Corkscrew doesn't appear on this list. 😢
Cyclone should be like top 3. The name is everywhere
Alternative title: Some random Six Flags Coaster names
I'm genuinely surprised Vortex isn't on here
Have you done Most Unique or Interesting coaster names?
Here are a bunch of name ideas for your coaster battle parody videos!
Can you please do video on Indiana Beach from open til now?
If I owned a park I would want my coaster lineup to be unique and special. Ide make sure my name was unique and that the company that built the ride couldn't clone it elsewhere
For some reason I thought blue streak would have been on it
Alot of the DC coasters have reused names expect for 1 or 2
Haven’t even watched it yet - GOLIATH
I almost thought batman the ride was gonna be on this list
