The best thing about that ride is that it does actually feel a bit precarious when you're on it. That just makes it more fun as you hang on to it tighter.
No. You can tell by the fact that nobody queues up for this ride anymore - everyone is too shit scared to go on it ... JUST KIDDING! - it's a great ride, but it is more brutal and dangerous feeling than you would expect. If you think it's just sitting on a horse, gently going around the circuit without a care in the world - then think again!
wildwood stables I never rode a horse in all my life untill one day I got told to do so and learned very quickly, in one week, it's not that hard actually, maybe it's hard for many because of the fact that they keep thinking of the what if xd
I'm a year late but they've changed the seats now to be safer kinda ruins it as the danger to me was one of the main bits of the ride but it's for the best I guess
I went on this with my dad 40 years ago when I was 9 and it may look lame compared to modern rides but it was actually very frightening as you have no protection at all.
Agreed. I went on when I was 14 in 1984. It looked a little lame and slow...it wasn't and I was terrified holding on for dear life. Absolutely loved the experience but nerves far too wrecked to ever go on again. I regret my cowardice.
IKR I’m 12 and I went to Blackpool last week, I came of this ride with two bruises on my hips😂 but I ended up going on it 6 more times thanks to speedy pass
😂 is there nothing to hold you on the ride like a lap bar? Do you just simply hold on to the handlebars? It looks a tad bit unsafe for a little kid! Especially a kid that doesn't weigh much, I'd be worried about them going flying off at the corners! We're going there next month, and I know my wee boy will want to go on this ride if he sees it! But he's only 9 so I'm not sure
Remember this. Me and my bezzie mate. She was terrified, and i was weak with laughter. Sadly i have lost her now. But the memories will never leave me. It really is a rough ride 💋♥️
This is such an old ride! But one of the best vintage rides at BPB. It's slow in places, as it was designed to be, but the rails get high and jumps/turns are scary! You really feel like you're racing the others and hanging on for dear life to that horse! Glad its still there. I used to go on this many years ago as a boy - unique, terrifying and fun
😍💗 I only ever went on this once in 1984. Once was enough. I loved the experience. But I was soooooo scared. You had absolutely no protection (apart from a lap belt that didn't seem to do much). Pretty high up too and being flung around corners. Actually surprised nobody ever fell off or died whilst riding it. Wish I had the nerve to go back on. I absolutely LOVED it in principle. One of the best old rides in the park.
I absolutely love this ride it's so rough! You basically hold on for dear life and that makes me not kind of want to go on it but it's always worth it to see my dads face when we come off it because he complains it rlly hurts😂😂
People really underestimate this ride. Went on this with a friend and the first time i nearly cried as i thought i was going to fall off, it didn't help that i sat at the front. Went on it 5 times, great fun :D
+Amelia BVB Biersack same there fuckall to hold u on to the horse apart from a shitty little belt..its a fucked ride....still was fun though :D I WOULD DO IT AGAIN
this thing reminds me of my childhood, the whole park does actually. this might not be as good as modern rides but it will always hold a special place in my heart, plus it's more thrilling than it looks lol
+PHABULOUS PHEELINGS PHAN I thought this was the grand national. If you have been on this you don't enjoy it lol, I thought I was going to die the whole way through, it whips you round the place at speeds an your very high up and on a fuckin pole 😂 my mates seatbelt came off an he was hanging on for his life, I was laughing the whole way through cause of him, but I have been on every ride in that park and this is by far the scariest
I wonder if they could make another steeplechase ride like this one at Harry Potter World with riders riding on broomsticks or hippogriffs or dragons while listening to background music and looking at Harry Potter scenery.
I'm 40 years old and still love this ride as much as i did when i was a kid. Throws you around more than any coaster does. You feel like you've done a few rounds with Tyson when you hop off it. 😂
The year was 1969. The place, Pirates World in Dania, Florida usa. Search it and check out the images. I was 6 yrs old and weighed about 40lbs (18-ish kg). My uncle sat me in front of him. No belts, no signs, just sheer terror and the direct cause of my fear of coasters today. I cannot believe Steeplechase existed as of 2011 still. The comments here are hysterical. Pirates World apparently had some big-name concerts as well. Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin. Thx for sharing I tried to face my fear of falling out or off of rides at Six Flags Great Adventure in NJ by riding Kingda Ka. Search that POV video.
It may look lame but in reality it feels pretty dangerous. When it tilts on the corners you have to really hang on, and the safety strap when I went on it was worse than useless.
This is such a strange coaster. I really want to ride it for that exact reason. I love that they have kept it for so many years and that they continue to build rides around it. I can't believe that this was manufactured by the same company that made the Big One and Revolution. Talk about a wide range of rides!
My mom and dad would never let me ride this, they said it was too dangerous! Doesn't look too bad to me, but oh well they wanted to keep me safe. I got to ride other rollercoasters and stuff! Thanks for the POV video!
This is the most unusual one I've ever seen. It looks quite flimsy although it won't be but there's certainly some very high drops below the rider and a simple seat belt 😮 Nice video 😊
I just hope pleasure beach are willing to do what it takes to keep this ride operational, at one point they were apparently planning on replacing with an S&S axis coaster😣, I hope they’ve changed their mind since then!🤞🙏
I went on this ride and it broke down when I was on it I didn't get injured or anything I was on at the front of the horse and my sister behind me as we were going up the hill at 1:15 is when the ride stopped I didn't know what was going on I herd the people who worked the ride shouting at everyone who was lining up shouting at everyone to leave. The house we where on moved a lot and it fell back down the hill and eventually came to a stop we where stuck on there for about a hour waiting for people to come get us once they reached us they had to help us down because the horse was high up and we walked of the ride after that the ride was closed down for a couple of days until it opened up again.
Flarexeria one time my uncle went to six flags and was riding the raging bull, and right before he went down the drip his harness flew up. He is still alive because he pulled it back down in time, but yeah yours is really crazy’s day really scary too I couldn’t imagine that😅
i HATE THIS RIDE, the mini drops an the bends,feels like your going to fall off, i went today, only went on it ones, it was packed an it hurt me, i was like AHHH, AHH, AHH, AHH on every bend.
Is this safe ?? when I went here my parents wouldn't allow me and my younger sister to go on because we saw the seatbelts and they don't look safe but we maybe be wrong
It makes me sad to think this is the last one of its kind in existence, the amount of engineering that went into just making it happen (you can tell by looking at pichures of the cars) and for nothing...I feel terrible 😢
This ride is quite scary. The reason for that is because the person sitting at the back has nothing to hold on to! Also it's really bumpy and you constantly feel unsafe... Other than that it's an okay ride.
I went on this ride once and can honestly say it was the scariest thing ever. The seats are slippery and there's nothing proper to hold you on. Its also bumpy and jerky. A woman alongside me was crying. Should be shut down before someone is killed
I went on this over 20 years ago now and at no point was it scary or as a child worried about a belt. "So Dangerous"! People are health and safety gone mad. It was fun, very fond memories of the place. shame I was to small to ride the big one. Blackpool here I come!
The best thing about that ride is that it does actually feel a bit precarious when you're on it. That just makes it more fun as you hang on to it tighter.
bigclivedotcom hey, big Clive! I love your videos! Totally agree with you btw
I LOVE this ride so much!

frickin deathtrap , and that's why we love it
If it was a death trap then the park will obviously get rid of it but they haven't done
I LITTERALY felt like I was falling off at the turns its so dangerous. But it was good.
+CrazyGamer3100 my mum felt the same and i should be going there this tuesday and thursday on holiday
Hold on tight or you will fall off this mental ride , cause the crappy lap belt would never keep you on if you lost your grip. Enjoy !!!!
K thanks
considering I'm a horse rider myself, its funny that I nearly fell of round the corners (I was on the middle one) XD
sameee
Lauren Knowles 😂 I want to go Is it fun?
No. You can tell by the fact that nobody queues up for this ride anymore - everyone is too shit scared to go on it ...

Holy shit you have a flimsy belt holding you down that's it on this it throws you around as well im surprised it's still going
i almost fell out a few years back and i was only holding on by my own strength
alex lawless it feels dangerous but it extremely safe
I'm a year late but they've changed the seats now to be safer kinda ruins it as the danger to me was one of the main bits of the ride but it's for the best I guess
꧁lepidolite lilalite꧂ it wasn't dangerous though
Ani The same thing happened to me. The only thing holding me on were my legs tightly wrapped around the horse.
Each time the horses went round the corner I felt like I was gonna fall of 😲 but I didn't and went back on it many times 😆
I've never been to the Pleasure beach, I'm going on the 18th, do they have seat belts, or are are you just clinging onto the horse for dear life?
+Amber Adebusuyi 😆 don't worry you have a seat belt but I still found myself clinging for my life
+~ Risa In Dreamland ~ oh good! Thanks 😀
+Jake J Cool. I'm going with my school.
That's all rides for me.

I was terrified just watching it from here 😢
I went on the Pepsi max today I can’t tell you that was Les scary than the horses 🤷♀️
The horses are violent little bastards on this..not to mention a really abrupt ending. Can hurt your back quite a lot, be careful.
I'm 12 I go on this by myself all the time I love it! :D
DanTheStripe I went on this ride it was fucking painful as fuck lol
DanTheStripe hahahhaaa.......that's so true. I thought i had whip lash after riding this....its brutal

George Tillyou's "Steeplechase"horse ride lives!
Very nicely put together video and very entertaining as well. Thanks for posting this.
bloody awful ride, had to grip on for dear life around the corners! almost flew off it
Try some sit-ups?
Cassandra Hartley it's perfectly safe
Same haha
Christian Moss perfectly safe? I almost broke my neck
ya big fairy
This is one of my favorite rides from my childhood! Thanks for sharing!!
I’ve only been on this once when I was about 10 and it was petrifying. Felt like I was going to fly of at any second. It’s awful.
Burns Night fffg

This is the most baby rude and I’ve been on a roller coaster that went upside down so
@@Sssssssslf it's perfectly safe. It's quite jolty but you're never gonna fly out
Who said horse ride aren't fun

This is a classic ride at pleasure beach for me, even though sometimes it can toss you around at the corners and stuff its a very run ride
Scary ride this. Feel like you are about to be flung off on every turn .

I absolutely love this ride it's so rough! You basically hold on for dear life and that makes me not kind of want to go on it but it's always worth it to see my dads face when we come off it because he complains it rlly hurts😂😂
Is a constant sense of clinging on for survival fun? I certainly found it that way!
People really underestimate this ride. Went on this with a friend and the first time i nearly cried as i thought i was going to fall off, it didn't help that i sat at the front. Went on it 5 times, great fun :D
I went on this In August and it’s so jolty on the vends. It’s a brilliant ride, one of a kind! Part of the experience is how unsafe it feels!
平和じゃないメリーゴーランド(謎)
A absolutely loved this ride, I soooo need to go to Blackpool again sometime 😊😊
友達3人で乗るなら楽しめるけど、全く知らない3人で乗ったら絶対気まずくなるアトラクション。
Pferde echt jetzt 🐎🐴🐎🐴🏇🏇🏇🏇🏇
That looks so much fun! I wanna go on it!
I LOVED THIS RIDE WENT ON LIKE 100000 TIMES!!!!!!!
Why do pepole think this ride hurts? Bend knees and take all weight into feet and it's fine!!
+Ellie Young lol so did I! It's my favourite ride! 😀😀
Im_A_Smol_Phan :3 the phandom is here aswell? But ikr! I thought I was the only one that loves it!
This actually goes faster than what I thought and the turns are quite sharp

I've been on this ride its pretty good and it's one of my favorites
I hated this ride! It was actually really scary!!
I went on this yesterday it was awsome me and my dad were 1st
I was first too! But my restraints were wobbly and needed fixing
***** oh
+Amelia BVB Biersack same there fuckall to hold u on to the horse apart from a shitty little belt..its a fucked ride....still was fun though :D I WOULD DO IT AGAIN
+Amelia BVB Biersack lol really??????
Felt like I was gonna fall off and die any moment on this ride...I loved it!
I rode this just because it existed, nothing like it in America and it was so much fun! It certainly does look much tamer than it feels!
But the Steeplecase was an American ride.
I have always wanted to ride something like that I am so happy it actually exists. I honestly didn’t think something like this was possible
How the hell is this roller coaster still running with a flimsy belt holding you on?
Nanii It’s perfectly safe. It’s also the last of it’s kind.
I have been on that it’s well fun❤️it was for my bday I definitely recommend this place as my Nanna works here
I LOVE THIS RIDE
what a fun ride! I have never been on much less seen one of those! It looks so cool
外国にはこんなアトラクションがあるのか…初めて見た。
乗ってみたいけど安全面が心配
Never rode it, but would love to at least once! I think it's GREAT!!!! 🐎💞👍
Looks like so much fun! I've always wanted to go on it.
This ride looks super fun! Very creative!
Really scary when it goes round the corners! :)
Pleasure Beach looks like a cool park. Rides are all on top of each other.
The last time i was 8 or something, i was terrified to go on but i did, in the end, my mum couldn't get me off the thing!!
Great classic!
this thing reminds me of my childhood, the whole park does actually.
this might not be as good as modern rides but it will always hold a special place in my heart, plus it's more thrilling than it looks lol
This is the most fucking dangerous ride ever
If you've been on the grand national, I'd consider that ride to be more dangerous. It throws you around like hell, this ride I actually enjoy.
+PHABULOUS PHEELINGS PHAN I thought this was the grand national.

awesome ride, really felt like i was going to fall off it!!! hahaha!!!
Went on this once and nearly slipped off. Never been so scared in my life 😅 Still a great ride though!
I actually quite liked this ride. I mean, it seriously does feel like you're gonna fall but it's still pretty fun.
That is the cutest ride for grownups I've seen!
I remember getting placed on the back of this with my big brother in like 2001 and crying 😂
i went on this and i loved it! it was amazing
I was the same haha, i was bashing into my sister because i was at the back, i nearly broke my sisters ribs i was holding on that tight haha!

omg same

As an actual equestrian, this is oficially my fave coaster
This ride always makes me feel like it's going to be my last
😂😂
I went on that! Trust me it’s more ruff than you think😂
It may look lame but in reality it feels pretty dangerous. When it tilts on the corners you have to really hang on, and the safety strap when I went on it was worse than useless.

I love roller coasters I neeed to go on this one right now!!!the more scarier the betterrr u can’t always live in fear
I KNOW if I went on this I’d end up being the one person who falls off the ride and gets it shut down XD
First time i see this ride beautiful ride i like it........
i love this just because of how many times i think
“holy fucking shit i’m gonna fall off”
during the ride
LMFAO
I've never been here before so hows this a racing ride? Do u control the speed of it orrrrr
I shouted it out loud "I'm gonna die omfg" and "don't fall don't fall" 😂😂
@@saikinay7005 it's supposed to be a race but you can't control the speed, I'm pretty sure the red lane seems to go a bit quicker though

Where did you hear that lie?
Pretty good ride but Christ are the corners sharp, nearly got thrown off that fucking horse multiple times
Haha..... This brings back fond memories!
I loved this ride ! went to Blackpool in 2014 it was such a good holiday away , live in Ireland so not to far way to go back again
This ride is great. The fear of death is real.
I went on this ride and it broke down when I was on it I didn't get injured or anything I was on at the front of the horse and my sister behind me as we were going up the hill at 1:15 is when the ride stopped I didn't know what was going on I herd the people who worked the ride shouting at everyone who was lining up shouting at everyone to leave.

Hey I was at Blackpool pleasure beach a few years back when this happened because of high winds it was a boy and a girl kids lol was it you

why does it look so slow in this it’s way faster in real life XD
Awwww I love this ride!! It's so cute!! :)
i HATE THIS RIDE, the mini drops an the bends,feels like your going to fall off, i went today, only went on it ones, it was packed an it hurt me, i was like AHHH, AHH, AHH, AHH on every bend.
This looks amazing I wanna try it
This is the last steeplechase coaster in the world that's still operating. Props to blackpool for keeping history alive.
Where is that place?
You can't be serious! A ride like this exist in a theme park!?

leah.fl you could fly off it at every turn and corner

I've been going on this ride alone ever since I was 12and even now I occasionally leave the seat due to some of the hills.
It makes me sad to think this is the last one of its kind in existence, the amount of engineering that went into just making it happen (you can tell by looking at pichures of the cars) and for nothing...I feel terrible 😢
