As fascinated as I am with abandoned places (especially theme parks), I always feel bad for them. Especially when there's neat animatronics and stuff left inside. :( Makes me wish things could've gone differently for them, y'know? They're artwork, after all.
I definitely wish there was some sort of overarching preservation fund/location though I know how much of a pipedream that is. But yeah seeing them just abandoned like that is awful.
A Yucky Rat, specifically for Western Village, one of the locomotives was left there until 2007, when it was 110 years old. It is now on display somewhere in poor cosmetic condition.
Yeah, I feel the same way. I mean...I might have a different feeling. I feel bad for the abandoned animatronics and buildings because it just feels like a cemetary of dreams and hard work, and we're just watching decaying bodies in their coffins.
True, but just think how many DECADES these parks were able to stay open and bring joy to millions. "A thing isn't beautiful because it lasts." - Vision, 2015.
whats weird is that I stayed at Disney for 2 weeks back in 2017 and the resort we were staying at had a balcony. You could see the rotted water park from my window. I was creeped out.
Near my old house, there was a small theme park. It had a small roller coaster inside a Mount Rushmore replica. It was always closed. My mom said it was being renovated and would be done next month. That was five years ago. It’s still not open
I do love the Disney and Universal Parks but I can't help but feel really sad for all the local parks that went out of business because of the major theme parks going in
you should make some more videos like these! i like watching abandoned theme park videos because you get to look at how the downhill of the park happened, and the tragic history of the parks. Happy 2020!
*Me:* It's so beautiful to see how nature has reclaimed River Country. May its luscious green remain so. *Fastpass Facts:* Disney is building a new resort hotel on the RC site. *Me:* 😢 Also, re: the intro, *War. War never changes.*
Honestly I am kinda sad that river country is being knocked down, it’s been such a significant piece of theme park history and Disney lore (I’m not sure if that’s the right word here) that knocking it down feels weird, I mean this thing has had a ton of urban legends and even a creepypasta about it. It’s hard to let something like that just get removed.
It was a pretty cheap move however to have disney after mr Matsuo's dreams to open a theme park from disney,because when he discussed the subject with disney he refused at start.But after years when disney saw how good his dreamland was growing he just go there and opened one of his official parks.I think they stepped on his dream pretty harsh,and this happened after years when he would be a little more vulnerable because of the passing of the years to strike even better since nara would be considered pretty old.That's how you strike economically someone else i believe,as much as i love disney as well for the things they offered us over the years,still i find this pretty cheap as i said.

Just had another idea, there's a Flinstones theme park in Custer, South Dakota that is abandoned as well, I've been there since I was kid in 2005 on a family vacation. I miss that park like crazy. Nice job on this video!
The pripyat amusement park is really interesting to me. Mostly the nuclear poweplant story. The fact that the explosion was 100x worse than Hiroshima and nagisaki (both explosions destroyed an entire town I believe) really makes you realize just how big it was. I'm not really sure why I'm so fascinated but yeah fsyfstsgttsy
At the start of the vlog, the word Nara appeared, my Grandmother kept saying that as Alzheimer's ate away at her brain. We assumed that it was a word in her native Slovak as she progressively switched between that and english, but I could not find it in the online dictionary. Would you happen to know what it means?
I’m glad they were able to bring back The Wizard Of Oz park. It sounds so amazing and fun, and it’s based on such a classic, it would be a shame to see Dorthy and the other’s rotting for good.😢 I hope people start realizing it’s open again and stop stealing and vandalizing it. Do you know if Judy Garland’s dress and other museum items were ever returned or found?
To give some rather ironic credit to the Japanese Western amusement park. Although it is sad that it closed down, it's also oddly the most accurate depiction of what happened a lot in the west during the gold Rush. Towns being built and then completely abandoned afterwords when the gold was declared gone. Is there anything more wild west like than a ghost town?
You should seriously have over 1 million subscribers! A couple years ago I felt miserable for multiple reasons, but when I found your channel, you brought me so much happiness, so please keep doing what you’re doing. But most importantly, do what makes you happy.
My Memaw actually used to work at the Oz theme park in NC when it was regularly open (I forgot what she did but I think she played Dorothy) and I tend to visit in the summer and she's been planning to take me to Oz when it's open
Omg, the very beginning was awesome. I was slightly creeped out but it was overshadowed by the Ink Spots singing "I Don't Want To Set The World On Fire" and the MAJOR Fallout post nuclear apocalypse vibes
Nothing can beat nature my friends not even money in the end will be always the victor and in an vengeful way as well! Still loved every freaking minute of this thanks fastpass!
This is some crazy history. And I want mooooooooooooooooooooooooooore. Duck Squad does an amazing job to keep fastpass facts going on his videos. Thank you for another video.
That room of teddy bears gave me an extreme wave of anxiety lol abandoned theme parks are so aesthetic but the thought of being in them makes me shudder
9:20 I went to typhoon lagoon and this area is now filled with sand but the upside down boat is still there. It’s just more seating and beach chairs now :)
When you turned around in the games room and the little boy walked over to the right, I swear I though he was an animatronic and I almost shit my pants 😂
dang, I guess I missed these when they were first published. I LOVE how haunting the old music at the beginning sounds! It really ups the creep factor!!
Honestly the fact that its abandon makes it all the more intriguing. I probably wouldn't bothered visiting Western Land when it was in operation. But you're telling me a bunch of robots and haunted houses are just sitting there unattended? Sign me up for the tour, bring a body guard and lets go!
I have broken into the land of oz when I was back in college. Had a friend that went to college in Boone, and in the dark that place was pure nightmare fuel
Tokyo Disney opening and just shutting down these original Japanese parks just feels so..disgusting to me. Like they just got jealous of the Japanese owned parks (ok there's obvs more to it than that, but holy cow it's irritating).

I feel the same way. Ever since Great Movie at Disney MGM closed, I've missed Oz terribly. ;u;
My friend works there in the summer!
I know that this comment is old, but according to Google Maps, Land of Oz is "temporarily closed".

Really all abandoned theme parks stories can be summed up as
“Until the Disney theme parks attacked.”
Yeah, I feel the same way. I mean...I might have a different feeling. I feel bad for the abandoned animatronics and buildings because it just feels like a cemetary of dreams and hard work, and we're just watching decaying bodies in their coffins.

That Kansas City park looks so creepy it shouldn’t exist!
Which Park was in Kansas City?
i want to go their but i don't wanna get in trouble
Agreed
This part you showed in Kansas City looks alot like the one that was in Wichita, Kansas called Joyland park are you sure it was Kansas city?
Your face is the same level of creepiness
whats weird is that I stayed at Disney for 2 weeks back in 2017 and the resort we were staying at had a balcony. You could see the rotted water park from my window. I was creeped out.

Dang bro
The rest of the theme park is open so no you can’t explore it. It’s been another year and it’s still there closed
Do you know the parks name?
I do love the Disney and Universal Parks but I can't help but feel really sad for all the local parks that went out of business because of the major theme parks going in

Why Kansas City wasn’t in the video other than the credits at the beginning?

Did anyone realised that the river country part was reused from the abandones by disney video
Realized* no offense

The Abraham Lincoln reminds me of the one they had (I don't know if it's still there) that was in One Mans Dream. It just stares at you.
Kansas City in the opening looks alot like Joyland that's actually in Wichita, KS. I'm excited to see part 2!
It actually is Joyland ❤❤❤
I WANT MORE VIDEOS OF ABANDONED PARKS RIGHT NOOOOOOOW!!! IT´S SO GOOD!!!!!! I WAS WAITING FOR THIS VIDEO ON 2019
In a way, this does truly feel like fallout 3. The intro, the nuclear speak, the abandoned parks. Instead of fear, I felt a weird wave of nostalgia
My Memaw actually used to work at the Oz theme park in NC when it was regularly open (I forgot what she did but I think she played Dorothy) and I tend to visit in the summer and she's been planning to take me to Oz when it's open
Anyone agree his voice is calming or just me-?
Wolf Claw18 its not just you
Really into Abandoned theme Parks or mall's. It gives the person first glimpse of what the place used to be. Or ? Could be if it was still operating
Who knew Carrie Fisher would help open a Wizard of Oz park
Thank you for not keeping the same editing style as the intro! I was really worried that I was going to have to stop watching because of my anxiety.
the land of Oz story really made me emotional, what a wild roller coaster of a story.
Positive note, Land of Oz park is still open. A happy ending to a good video.
Chernobyl fascinates me so much, i even watched the horror movie 'Chernobyl Diaries'
Oh, yeah. The movie was. . . Interesting
River country’s story is pretty spooky and after all of that jazz it closed then got abandoned.........
This reminds me, I need to finish playing NiER: Automata sometime...
I did that autumn in oz event with my family a couple years ago! It was really fun
Disney did Nara Dreamland dirty
Omg, the very beginning was awesome. I was slightly creeped out but it was overshadowed by the Ink Spots singing "I Don't Want To Set The World On Fire" and the MAJOR Fallout post nuclear apocalypse vibes
The last one were bittersweet
The song y'all used in the intro is one of my favorite songs 😄
Those animatronics in western town are actually super impressive for what they are.... what a shame they were just left there to rot.
This fascinates me. That doll mannequin sticking sideways out of the wall is everything. Lol

My mom told me a few year ago that my Uncle used to work at River Country as a life guard back when it was open.
