**CORRECTION** Lol a quick correction on my correction on the North Carolina Brothers...It is Harry, Grover & Spencer Robbins! I mistakenly put a * correction and added Spencer's name with the Herschend Family. Feel free to check out part 1 of this 2 part series ft. Storybook Amusement over on his channel on the history of Blazing Fury's predecessor, Fire-in-the-hole at Silver Dollar City! While you're there subscribe to his awesome channel!

I was able to go to Silver Dollar City when I was about 5 years old. A year or two later it became Dollywood and a couple years after that I got to go back & have been back several times over the years. It’s amazing how although the park has gotten much bigger it still has most of the things it had when it was silver dollar city. Very little in those areas have changed.
3:30 This scene used to look like a forest with owls and trees, and a pond with some giant toads and was called "frog alley". The frogs are now hiding under the porch of the folks in the rockers as you exit the scene. 3:58 Around this corner to the left is a water tower with a sign that says "Timber Tower water Supply" which is a reference to the removed attraction Timber Tower. A bucket on a rope also falls. Riders used to be lightly splashed with water from the water tower here. That is immediately followed by a porch with 2 ENORMOUS hunks of fools gold, and a sign that reads "Assaying Office" which is meant to act as a nod to Mystery Mine. All of that is skipped in the jump-cut to the scene with Molly. 4:57 The sign reading "Paradise Road Bridge, DANGER, BRIDGE OUT" is a nod to the 50's style theatre show "Paradise Road" that was beloved by many in the park before it was replaced by "DreamLand Drive-In". This show is also referenced in a decal on the yellow classic car in front of Lightning Rod. 5:30 This train light used to swivel left and right, which gave a VERY heightened illusion that a train was navigating a twisted tunnel and was VERY cool. The swiveling of the light was also kinder on your eyes.
I cant wait to visit again this weekend! You definitely need to get back there this year but it was a pleasure collaborating with you and more to come!
I remember going to Dollywood on elementary school field trip and the water on the final drop was a blast! This will always be my favorite coaster to ride,and can't wait to take my daughter on her first roller coaster in a few years!
Nice! You got to actually experience the water splash at the end! That's epic! Same here...can't wait to take my son (he's 2) on his first coaster in a few years too!
Good job Miguel. I hope you have a great time this weekend there, I will be thinking about how much fun you will be having and hope it doesn't rain this time.
I love getting the history of rides. We are going here on April 9-10. We always ride this ride just for the fun of it. It has gotten kinda creepy, but fun. Thanks for an awesome video.
Hey Vicki! Believe it or not...my favorite types of videos to make are actually these historical videos so I'm glad you enjoyed it! But nice! The weather should be perfect for your visit! I'll be there this weekend then again late April for the flower & food festival! Should be awesome! But as always, glad you enjoyed and more to come!
Awesome video Miguel! I absolutely adore Blazing Fury. It was such a pleasant surprise for me when I went to Dollywood. I just kept going back for more. It is a fantastic old ride with a lot of charm and I hope it stays around for many more decades. I can't wait to check out Storybook Amusements either, it looks like a really interesting channel!
It is truly a fantastic ride! I can't wait to ride it this weekend! Will be awesome! But ready for our collab when time permits for you! Take your time!
I just got back from Dollywood. I gotta say, Blazing Fury is SUPER out of place. It's surrounded by modern coasters and fair-type rides, so I was very confused about it still being there other than for nostalgia. It gave me the vibe of Monster Mansion in Six Flags over Georgia, which is praise because I fucking love that ride. Anyway, it was honestly hella impressive and had some DECENT thrills with its three drops. Also the guy operating it was hilarious.
2:32 Please understand this particular segment of track is the "Train Dip" (2nd drop) and was reprofiled by RMC after the park worked with them for Lightning Rod. The original in house segment of track was not so smooth.
@@Scuba4Steve Geez! Only 3 at the time! Yeah and getting 7 rides! That's honestly great! But you're absolutely right, when it rains there...its perfect!
If you didn’t already know, Silver Dollar City still has the Flooded Mine! I can’t speak on how similar it is since I’ve never been to Dollywood but it’s a good time.
Ahh...thank you, Morgan! Lol I wasnt sure...that's why I said that i believe appears to be the side of her home cause we see her home then turn the corner and we're looking at something from the side...but it's the bridge on fire! 😅 lol thank you so much for that correction! Still love this ride and hope you enjoyed the video overall though!

Now I really want to get back out to Dollywood! Very nicely done paying tribute to one of the park's classic rides!

Nice video AP! Love all the history and the wicker man cameo in the intro! Great to see you at Dollywood.
I'm glad you enjoyed it and that quick wickerman cameo at the beginning! But I was great seeing you all again as always!

4:52 I think that is the bridge
I've been to tweetsie railroad
Miguel, you were on the news!
Lol where?!
Go to 37 seconds.
Yeah they emailed me 2 weeks ago and they didnt let me know when it would be released!
@@makijo1571 yup! I just watched it!
My brother and I rode this 7 times in a row one rainy day
I need to do that next time I go!
@@ThemeParksUncovered yeah there were only 3 coasters there at the time we did that lol but definitely great for rain.

Over the summer I wint on this for the first time and in the scene at the hotel the girls head was hanging by the whyers
Lol geez! That's pretty intense!
Bet that was a sight!
That one place that looks like a house is a bridge
Lol yeah I learned that shortly after when I got on the ride again a couple of days after releasing this documentary. Hope you enjoyed it nonetheless!
@@ThemeParksUncovered ive been to Dollywood 4 times and rode that 2 times
@@ThemeParksUncoveredeven the people who work at dollywood don't want blazing fury closing also
It is
They should have NEVER TAKEN THE FLOODED MINE OUT!! It was my favorite ride their
I 200% agree!
If you didn’t already know, Silver Dollar City still has the Flooded Mine! I can’t speak on how similar it is since I’ve never been to Dollywood but it’s a good time.
@@LavenderKitsunes I actually did not know that! That's cool! I have to get out to SDC anyways!
@@ThemeParksUncovered I hope you enjoy it when you get the chance to stop by! It’s my home park so I’m always happy when it gets recognition. :D
I was told that it was shut down because someone had gotten bitten by a copperhead and no one took her screams seriously.
I rode it also anyone here in 2024?
👋
@@ThemeParksUncovered hi sus boy
The building on fire isn't Sarahs home - its the bridge that is on fire.
Ahh...thank you, Morgan! Lol I wasnt sure...that's why I said that i believe appears to be the side of her home cause we see her home then turn the corner and we're looking at something from the side...but it's the bridge on fire! 😅 lol thank you so much for that correction! Still love this ride and hope you enjoyed the video overall though!
I did thank you! Great work
@@FreelancerFiles Awesome! You're welcome and Glad you did!
Tell me how I got scared of Blazing fury this was my first roller coaster
