I sincerely hope you all will enjoy this mini-documentary because I poured my heart into it! If you’re new, feel free to stick around for more videos! CORRECTION: Oblivion opened in 1998, not 1988.. 💀
the only 2 B&M wing coasters i've been on are Mandrill and Swarm, and though Swarm has the the better forces, Mandrill is just a fun ride overall and the launches are pretty intense for a family thrill coaster i also love to see B&M trying different concepts and being experimental.
I never knew two of my coaster credits were B&M firsts on their first seasons, Iron Wolf and Batman. Great video !! It may be hard to believe but 30 years ago Iron Wolf wasn't that rough but then again the only other stand ups I've ridden were Arrow and Togo.
B&M didn't come up with the idea for the inverted coaster. Jim Wintrode, then-president of Six Flags Great America, wanted a suspended coaster, but one that looped. He approached B&M with the concept. In fact, Batman was first advertised an "outside looping" coaster.

Loved the video! I love how you can tell right away a coaster is a B&M with the roar
Thank you so much! And yeah, the roar especially on Inverted Coasters is insane.
My favorite Coaster I was on is from B&M. It is Leviathan in Canadas Wonderland 💪💪
Leviathan looks awesome!! I’ve ridden Fury 325 at Carowinds, and it’s my number 2 coaster!
Nice work! We enjoyed it!
Thank you so much! I’m glad you did enjoy it because you probably won’t see anything else this long from me for a long time. 😅
i love this vid i hope, your work pays off =)
Thank you so much! It pays off with every view and comment I receive!

Cool! And what’s just as good is various parks trying their new experimental models. Thanks for watching!
Wow, you are so underrated! You deserve way more subs!
Thank you so much! The support is deeply appreciated!

Cool! While Iron Wolf now is very outdated, I do think you’re right about it being a solid coaster back then. Thanks for watching!

Interesting, thank you for the correction!
Nice video. The man in the orange shirt at 15:12 is not Claude Mabillard. He was interviewing Walter Bolliger.
Thank you for watching and for the correction!
Where’s the sit down coaster?
I put it as an honorable mention as the Floorless roller coaster was more innovative.
What about the sit down?
I left it as an honorable mention in the video as it wasn’t as innovative as the other major models. Good point, though!
