100% your are far better than any other vlogers out there thanks I was hooked on that first Coster definitely have my support thanks for what you do new fan Wayne.
The Beast at night might be one of my favorite coaster experiences ever. Especially if you get lucky and get on after the fireworks. The firework smoke makes the woods all hazy. It's amazing!
Kings Island doesn't get enough hype. The vast beauty of the entire 364 acre property is viewable from all their larger rollercoasters. That is what makes Kings Island so different from more dense amusement parks. The rollercoasters are more spread out within surrounding nature. I've been to tons of amusement parks in the United States and KI is definitely the best. Mystic Timber and The Beast are amazing!
@Jonathan Gaither Kings islands my home park but I’ve been to both. Kings island just has a different feeling atmosphere then other AMUSEMENT parks, you would have to visit to understand what I’m talking about. But Universal is kinda expected to be a better park because it’s a theme park.
Words cannot describe how absolutely terrifying the sound inside the tunnels on the beast is. It sounds like an absolutely blood curdling scream at full volume. It’s even hard to describe what it feels like to be on that ride. It’s terrifying thrill.
@@FrontSeatMedia this is crazy but the scenery is amazing! I just don’t think I would be able to enjoy the sights riding in that thing! 😂😂😂 I’m subbing ❤️🥀
I grew up going to Kings Island when I was younger. It's been forever since I've been there. The last time I was there The Son of Beast was new and had the loop. Such a tragedy it was poorly constructed for a ride that was far ahead of its time.
@@elle28482 Same whenever I go on mystic timber’s I always go back in line to ride it again, just like how yesterday I went to K.I and went the Orion 2 times and then 1 more in the night
I survived Son of Beast shortly before it was tore down! I’m glad I made a point to purchase that photo! The Beast is pretty wicked too. This brings back memories for me. I live in California but have family in Ohio. I even lived there for a year and will always remember my best friend taking me to King’s Island. That view from near the first drop on The Beast is breathtaking. I remember how fast that ride was too! It’s good to know that coaster is still there. I’m loving all your coaster videos! Thank you for sharing your adventures! 🌹
It's amazing how the landscape has changed so much in a relatively short amount of time. Vortex was a dominant feature for years. Then Son of Beast added its mark. Since then, Diamondback, Banshee and Orion added and Vortex removed. The skyline looks very different now, almost like a kinetic structure with constant movement in the air around the park. I love it.
@@dakotamurray7184 I don't agree with that. I'm sad that it ended the way it did, but it was really exciting when it opened and was another example of the park pushing boundaries. It didn't work out for the same reason some other KI coasters didn't; it was just ahead of its time. Imagine that ride as a RMC! But that just wasn't who and what was available at the time. Still, I think it paved the way for the future and roller coasters like RMCs.
Loved watching this up in Quebec. Really helps pass the time when I can't come back to visit family and go to KI like old times. Vortex was the best. I will miss that ride forever. Excellent POVs, keep up the awesome work. Btw, you really captured the awe that is The Beast on a good day. That sounded and looked like it was riding real slick!
Went to kings island for the first time since 1998. It didn't disappoint. Banshee was great. Riding the beast again( which was the first roller coaster I ever rode) was amazing. And the new Orion was fun, but I grayed out on it on the turn around,lol.
Just a note as to why the Beast lift hill is so brutal. It has to do with where the train in front of it is currently on the track. The train in front has to have cleared the second hill before the first hill will pick up speed
hello yes where do I put in my application for a job recording front-seat footage of rollercoasters and thrill rides thanks. also, thanks for being a cool coaster-rider who doesn't "default scream" XD Also your soft "Goodbye" on Invertigo was timed PERFECTLY and was hilarious thank you Also also kudos to the operator on Flight of Fear XD wish more coaster operators were sassy
I just went with my friends! I’ve been several times but never with them. The bonding experience of riding a rollercoaster with your friends when you’re all terrified is so great. The Orion was such a good rollercoaster, as was the flight of fear. We got to ride on a lot of the rides. I swear the only ride I freaked out on was those wind seeker swings (NOT MY IDEA). Anyways I love kings island and the beast will always hold a special place in my heart (Unfortunately I didn’t get to ride on the banshee, I really wanted to, although I probably would have cried lmao) (was anyone else there today?)
When I saw the Beast first hill, and then the speed they were going up, I couldn't help but laugh through the entirety of it. You can't make this up. It's the perfect version of "aaaaaanytime now...". Also, holy cow that Vortex ride. The rain just starting when you're about to go down the first hill, and being the last ride before they close the rollercoaster.
I love the convo on the final brake run of Diamondback about Six Flags Great Adventure! Great Adventure is my home Six Flags and I absolutely LOVE Nitro, and it doesn't get nearly the credit it deserves
I grew up about an hour away from Kings Island. The Beast debuted in 1980, when I was 10. It is the greatest roller coster of all time. Nothing in the universe will ever top it. Ever.
@@Hoverbedthe majority is loops/inversions and big turns, but it's dark so it's a little hard to tell; after a bit i'd forget if i was upside down still or not😂. It's really fun, the force of the launch can be rough though
Glad you got to ride Vortex and Firehawk before they were removed, shame you didn't get to ride Son Of Beast while it was there, a friend and me were the 2nd to last to ever ride it when the beam broke and people went to the hospital, it was bad, also one of the racers use to go in reverse, not sure why they changed that, great video, thoroughly enjoyed it as KI is my local park, glad you had a good 1st experience there, I have been there probably 20 times over the years, it's a great park, you have to go back and ride Orion, it is worth it and get a fast pass if possible so you can ride everything 2 and 3 times, they are worth every penny ;)
We definitely plan to make it back to KI someday soon. Gotta ride Orion! The day we shot this video, a bad thunderstorm rolled in around 3 pm and rained out the rest of our day. We were so bummed. But we shall return!
@@FrontSeatMedia When it started raining on Vortex it brought back many memories of that coaster, I can recall at least 5 times of it starting to rain on us as soon as we got on it too and a couple times we got totally drenched lol!
I rode the Bat a day or two before it fell of track killing at least one. I forget... Was in the 80's. I rode it maybe 5 times and I didn't like how it swung so much
How long ago was this, I think now the vortex and beast are gone right? I haven't been for a few years. I loved them both so much, and forever saddened I'll never ride son of beast either Thank you all for the comments I actually forgot I posted this lol 😅
I live 4 hours from Kings Island and somehow just found it! Ws made plans to go this weekend, so that'll be fun. Everybody is talking about The Beast, so I am excited for that.
Watching this brings back alot of memories of when we use to go alot during the summer months... The Vortex was the roughest ride to me.. had to know how to hold your head in a certain position so that you wouldn't get whiplash... Never made it on the son of beast I was too afraid to ride that ride just had too many problems. But great video... I may go back another time and ride the diamondback in the Orion before the season closes.
"Me and my boys were just at Cedar Point yesterday" and 80 music, especially Total Eclipse of the Heart, awesome music. Im watching this to mentally prepare myself for when me and my friend go in september😂 Edit: I didn't get to go Sept. But I am getting to go June/July 2022 for my birthday.
You DEFINITELY got a like simply because you mentioned six Flags Great adventure....have you done vid for that already? Nitro and king da ka closed as soon as we got there 😂😂😭!

I loved Vortex, and will miss it next time I make it to KI, but man, it would jerk you around, and I was always left with bruises on my shoulders from the restraints.
@@_.kalico._ bro Orion was amazing! Your like scared out of your mind and when you fall it feels like your flying. After I went on Viking fury, Invertigo and Banshee it prepared me for it all. The drop feeling is still there but you learn how to make it into excitement and fun🤩
His comments are always spot on. Diamondback he said smooth. Racer is rough. Bat short and sweet. One hundred percent spot on every time based on my experience. I gives credibility to any review elsewhere for me.
I’m visiting my sister that goes to college at UK, so I can’t wait to go here. I have an immense fear of heights, so I came here to see which ones I might enjoy
Went to Ohio for a lacrosse tournament and got to visit this place, pretty amazing experience, although I couldn’t get on everything I did get to try Orion and it definitely tops everything at my home park six flags great America!
Thanks for the info on Kings Island. It's been about 30 years since I've been to Kings. We live closer to Cedar Point, but thinking we'll spend a weekend out there.... Thanks again
I’m gonna love Orion!!! It’s gonna be so crazy!im gonna love fight of fear all of the ones I’m gonna do I’m gonna do adventure express!! Racer.bat.beast.invirtito.stunt.misitck tumblers.diamond back.
I hope you rode Diamondback again and hopefully got a back row ride. The train is one of only 4 staggered row B&M models and since it has that longer train, you really get yanked over the hill for the drop. The airtime is unreal!
Unfortunately the day of our visit, a huge thunderstorm rolled thru mid afternoon and washed out the rest of our day there. Never got a 2nd ride on D-back. Next visit tho!
@@FrontSeatMedia not to knock DBack, but it’s back row or bust for me. The airtime is good in the front row on the camelback hills, but it’s the most intense floater airtime I’ve ever experienced in the back row. And that first drop takes the 215 ft drop and intensifies it lifting you out of your seat before you even crest the hill, then that 215 ft feels almost the same as the 300 ft drop on Orion. It’s crazy the difference.
thanks for including the Vortex it brings back some fun memories and if you didn't know that The Beast is the longest and oldest wooden rollercoaster in the world and has been around since it's opening debut on April 14,1979 yes it's 42 years old and it's also one of my favorites there at the park... and where the firehawk sat is now the home of Orion so I'm wondering what's next to come to the park to replace the empty space where the Vortex once sat.
I grew up going to King's Island... I still live about two hours away and I go every year for my birthday. I'm going to Cedar Point this week though! I've never been. Wish me luck!
The Beast sure is a good name for that coaster!!! Man, it's fast and so long!!! Adventure Express looks like a nice family coaster. Kings Island's Backlot looks more fun than the one at Kings Dominion, I noticed in this video they're slightly different, but something about KI's it looks better.
Beast is a great coaster. Adventure express is a great starter coaster and backlot at ki has a lot of its affects running compared to what I’ve seen in videos at dominion
@@lukejensen2521 I'm sure that it is. I would love to ride it someday! That's what I noticed here in the video that the effects were running. When I rode Back Lot Stunt Coaster at Kings Dominion, the effects weren't running which took a lot of the fun out of it and then not long after I rode it they shut it down for some reason. I got off and went to Intimidator 305 to meet back up with my parents and when we walked by Backlot it was closed. I'd have hate to be the one just about to get in the train and they tell you it's closed.
Oh man, you have to go back and ride Racer after the retrack. It is delightful! Glad you got to ride the legendary Vortex before it was removed, loved that coaster so much.
i am somebody who is deathly afraid of coasters, and today a friend of mine convinced me to ride the bat. closed my eyes and screamed like death for the entire ride. went to this to see what i missed, and, yeah. i would have passed out if i opened my eyes. you all are much braver than ill ever be!
@@tyronebrownjr1360 as someone who has lived in mason their whole life, i go to kings island a lot. the longest i have had to wait this season for a ride is an hour and that was for flight of fear when they didnt have many workers. i think you should be fine considering how much ive been this season
I love all kinds of theme and amusement parks and I love watching and learning about coasters, but I haven't ridden many because I was scared of drops and could never get okay with the organ-floaty feeling on the few I went on as a kid. Going on Saturday with some friends and hoping to overcome this, and this video helps a lot! It's good knowing what to expect, and I figured out a plan to start with some of the more tame coasters that don't have a ton of elements I'm unfamiliar or uncomfortable with and then work my way up as I go through the park. Thanks for all the great video!!
I was at KI yesterday and i rode Mystic Timbers and the Bat for the 1st time ever (i don't go too too often) and if you didn't need to put ur bags in a conveniently placed locker for MT, and the line was shorter, i would have ridden it multiple times. the back of the train is not AS good because *SPOILER* when ut in the shed you cant hear any of the music or projection wall. MT is VERY fast at 56mph. it does NOT feel like that. it felt a lot faster and as my dad said, it reminded him of The Beast, but better. My #1 fav ride at KI 100% would recommend MT no matter the age. But for the Bat i was scared to death the 1st time cuz it has a 70 ft drop (I rode this before MT which has a 109 ft drop) and its the tallest ride i've ever ridden (other than like the Windseeker or whatever) and the slow chain lift didn't help much,oh and there was a clanking above my head (the little triangles on the lift hill so if the chain breaks the train doesn't roll back into the station. but the chain lift set aside i was in the middle to back for the first time and the one behind the front the 2nd time, and theres a little drop at the top, and then it does a u-turn then the big one (which is only at a ~45 deg angle smh) and it was amazing, theres swinging and its one of my new fav rides at KI (MT being #1) Edit: P.S. you forgot Orion (which i barely saw anyone on yesterday i wonder why)
Since B&M inverts tend to make me a little dizzy (Cedar Point's Raptor being the worst for me as far as dizziness goes, and the Batman the Ride clones sometimes making me slightly dizzy), I thought this would truly do me in with its 8 inversions. That being said, it didn't initially appeal to me, but I was stll planning to ride it once for the credit. I'm glad I did and wow was I surprised that It doesn't make me feel dizzy at all. It's like the inversions are gradual enough that I was fine. This is my favorite inverted coaster I've rode thus far.
@@fournerr_ I can't tell you as I haven't been to Hershey Park yet. Actually, it is on my to-do list if I ever get a chance someday. As of now, Sandustky Ohio is the fartherest east I've been. When it comes to B&M inverts, I've only ridden 4 : The original Batman at SFGAM and it's clone at SFSTL, Raptor & Banshee. I've ridden a few Vekoma Inverts and they actually dion't make me dizzy, but they're older Vekoma and nowhere near as good as the B&M Inverts. I don't think dizzyness is a common complaint of B&M inverts among most people. I'm just wierd like that. I can actually ride some rides that are more dizzying to other people, like the Gerslaur & Mauer spinners don't effect me at all, believe it or not. Good luck when you go there. I think you'll be fine.
Hey any tips on learning on how to face your fears of rollercoasters.I had this since I was like 6 or something and still have yet to get on one Edit:I got on Thunderhawk at Dorney,I might get on Hydra next :D
Idk how but i somehow did it. I went to seaworld last year as a school field trip and there were 2 options, roller coasters or no rollerocasters. I basically just picked roller coasters to face my fear. After that I really liked them. All you need to do is just believe that you can!
diamondback the only roller coaster to ever scare me... not because of the actual height or speed but them seats it feels like you can fall right out lol
Went here last night. Can’t believe this park is 50 years old. I’ve been coming here since I was young. I haven’t been to too many amusement parks (only KI, Universal, and Disney) but I’m so glad that this one is the closest to me (I live in Cincinnati, I only went to universal and Disney recently when I was on vacation for spring break) KI is the best! I get gold passes every year I miss the vortex though, that was always my favorite ride!
Bro I have trauma on the beast 😂 I was in third grade and my dad got me on it That’s why I stopped liking roller coasters for a while Now I love them again 😂
This was filmed before Orion was even announced. Notice both Vortex and Firehawk are in the video. Vortex was torn down after the 2019 season and Firehawk was torn down after the 2018 season. Had to have been 2018 or before.

My favorite ride was definetly the Orion. The drop was just so fun
@@Flame-hm1jr nah must of been 2018 or earlier as he's riding Firehawk which closed in 2018 and was replace with Orion which is not in this video
You should go to Carowinds ITS an amusement park in Charlotte Nc
The Beast at night might be one of my favorite coaster experiences ever. Especially if you get lucky and get on after the fireworks. The firework smoke makes the woods all hazy. It's amazing!

I completely agree
That honestly sounds amazing

It lowkey makes my head hurt because it’s so bumpy 😕

Weird. I think it's kind of boring unless you ride at night. Then it's fun. But yes, the tunnels are very loud.
I honestly don't think the beast is all that scary until the last tunnel, its fun yet terrifying.
I have to close my ears because it's that terrifiying
Louder than that
Why does mystic timbers look like its jumping?
You could walk the beast's lift and beat the train
😭🤣
And the bat
Yo that’s hard to endure
Literally also with mystic timber’s lol
You could take a step every 10 seconds and beat Congo falls
Love that you get straight to the point and show the great rides, including timestamps! Awesome video!

Things you can do on the first lift hill of the beast:
• take a nice nap
• redo your entire morning routine
• write 3000 word essay
• eat dinner
Don’t forget too kiss your bro goodnight
If you mean all of them in the same lift hill, then yes.
You can also beat the ender dragon

I like how he was just having a casual conversation with the guy behind him like he wasn’t going up one of the tallest roller coasters in the world
It isn’t one of the tallest it’s just a regular hyper and the guy he was talking with is prob a coaster junkie too
@@2baobab759 19th tallest in the entire world. I would say top 20 would count as "one of the tallest"

@@andrewlazarz1071 how was your experience ?
It wasn't bad ride. Then again it was only a year or two old when I rode it. Sad that the SOB was just horribly built.
The Beast's night ride is GOATED
Fully agreed 👍👍👍
It’s better in the back of the train. It feels like you’re being slingshoted over the first hill!
I ONLY ride the beast at night
we got the last ride of the night one day! it was the best!!
Mystic Timber’s usually has a scare in the shed but I guess it must be random
It’s an old post since fire hawk
Yeah that’s what I thought
Yea there can be bats or Snakes of a scary tree
I think they usually only do the jumps scare after dark, that’s the only time I’ve seen it happen, I could be wrong though
it doesnt come out when the front row can see it. only mid and back rows get it
Operating Flight of Fear must be so fun. You get to scare the crap out of the riders anytime you want, and make sassy remarks while doing so
Funner than actually riding Flight of Fear....that ride is painful.

nothing in the universe?
THINK TWICE BUDDY
BECAUSE MILLENNIUM FORCE EXISTS
Mystic Timbers can't top the Beast. But, Steel Vengence, Orion, Millennium Force, Maverick, Banshee, and Magnum XL all top it.

Glad you got to ride Vortex and Firehawk before they were removed, shame you didn't get to ride Son Of Beast while it was there, a friend and me were the 2nd to last to ever ride it when the beam broke and people went to the hospital, it was bad, also one of the racers use to go in reverse, not sure why they changed that, great video, thoroughly enjoyed it as KI is my local park, glad you had a good 1st experience there, I have been there probably 20 times over the years, it's a great park, you have to go back and ride Orion, it is worth it and get a fast pass if possible so you can ride everything 2 and 3 times, they are worth every penny ;)
We definitely plan to make it back to KI someday soon. Gotta ride Orion!
The day we shot this video, a bad thunderstorm rolled in around 3 pm and rained out the rest of our day. We were so bummed.
But we shall return!
@@FrontSeatMedia When it started raining on Vortex it brought back many memories of that coaster, I can recall at least 5 times of it starting to rain on us as soon as we got on it too and a couple times we got totally drenched lol!
2nd last? You’re a legend!
I rode the Bat a day or two before it fell of track killing at least one. I forget... Was in the 80's. I rode it maybe 5 times and I didn't like how it swung so much
How long ago was this, I think now the vortex and beast are gone right? I haven't been for a few years. I loved them both so much, and forever saddened I'll never ride son of beast either
Thank you all for the comments I actually forgot I posted this lol 😅
Beast is still there. Vortex is gone unfortunately
Beast is still there, vortex is Gone and also fire hawk is also gone replaced with Orion
The park wouldn’t tear down the beast. The beast is the park’s signature ride aka the beast made the park famous in a way or made the park gain people
Beast is still here, which it’s also very bumpy lol not the best idea to go on that for the first ride of the day, I hurt my back on it.
@@wyattlitton3698 yes it’s been extremely rough lately
I gone to kings island multiple times but I always miss it, thank you for your POVs they help the wait to go back
Just went there this weekend and rode orion for the first time, you MUST try it at night its incredible. I rank it above millenium force.
A lot of these roller coasters look so much fun!
I’ve been on the beast and I cried on the ride for a sec but then I loved it next week I am going
Have fun!
I live 4 hours from Kings Island and somehow just found it! Ws made plans to go this weekend, so that'll be fun. Everybody is talking about The Beast, so I am excited for that.
Watching this brings back alot of memories of when we use to go alot during the summer months... The Vortex was the roughest ride to me.. had to know how to hold your head in a certain position so that you wouldn't get whiplash... Never made it on the son of beast I was too afraid to ride that ride just had too many problems. But great video... I may go back another time and ride the diamondback in the Orion before the season closes.
I love all of the rollercoaster in the world!
"Me and my boys were just at Cedar Point yesterday"
and 80 music, especially Total Eclipse of the Heart, awesome music. Im watching this to mentally prepare myself for when me and my friend go in september😂
Edit: I didn't get to go Sept. But I am getting to go June/July 2022 for my birthday.
Have fun, dude!
And 80s Music like totally rules!
yo you went yet?
I am headed there this year, wow beast retracted cannot wait....that has been a bucket list coaster all my life, 47 and finally getting my chance.
The bag hits different honestly probably one of my favorite’s. It’s intense but not over done :)
The bag 💀💀
@@Banana-kq8fg haha😂
Still sad catching glimpses of Vortex as well as seeing the POV. Cant wait to see what will be going in its place!
You DEFINITELY got a like simply because you mentioned six Flags Great adventure....have you done vid for that already? Nitro and king da ka closed as soon as we got there 😂😂😭!
Enjoy all the Kingda Ka and Nitro you can, Ashad, right here: th-cam.com/video/CxHaXM5kVqY/w-d-xo.html !

Banshee is my #1 favorite coaster at KI even more enjoyable at night is and always be a blast!
So classic... end of Vortex, young kid: "My head hurts". Yep... ride in a nutshell.... but what a ride. I miss the old man.
My ride on Vortex in a pouring rain was so Classic!
And you were the 2nd to last train before suspension due to weather... timely!
I loved Vortex, and will miss it next time I make it to KI, but man, it would jerk you around, and I was always left with bruises on my shoulders from the restraints.
I can’t wait to go to KI in June!! I’m looking forward to riding Banshee!
Ok. Banshee looks horridly terrifying
Not really
Ooofff banshees 180 drop is a gut buster forsure ! One of the greatest coasters I’ve ever rode!
yeah and then 1 second later the g forces kick in
I’m going to kings island on Tuesday so I can try to overcome my fear of roller coasters. Wish me luck
Good luck man! It took me a bit to overcome my fear as well, but the day will come
@@SwiPapa5026 I will make sure by the time I come back I could confidently say that I am no longer scared of roller coasters lmao
me too! can't wait to ride the new coaster
@@_.kalico._ bro Orion was amazing! Your like scared out of your mind and when you fall it feels like your flying. After I went on Viking fury, Invertigo and Banshee it prepared me for it all. The drop feeling is still there but you learn how to make it into excitement and fun🤩
@@SwiPapa5026 guess today was the day bud. I rode rides like Banshee, twice Invertigo, Diamond back twice , Delruim and Orion and I loved it all😂
His comments are always spot on. Diamondback he said smooth. Racer is rough. Bat short and sweet. One hundred percent spot on every time based on my experience. I gives credibility to any review elsewhere for me.
I’m visiting my sister that goes to college at UK, so I can’t wait to go here. I have an immense fear of heights, so I came here to see which ones I might enjoy
Thanks front seat media👍
Went to Ohio for a lacrosse tournament and got to visit this place, pretty amazing experience, although I couldn’t get on everything I did get to try Orion and it definitely tops everything at my home park six flags great America!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Hope you got to ride The Beast.
It's pretty much the flagship coaster at Kings Island.
Thanks for the info on Kings Island. It's been about 30 years since I've been to Kings. We live closer to Cedar Point, but thinking we'll spend a weekend out there.... Thanks again
I’m gonna love Orion!!! It’s gonna be so crazy!im gonna love fight of fear all of the ones I’m gonna do I’m gonna do adventure express!! Racer.bat.beast.invirtito.stunt.misitck tumblers.diamond back.
Have fun, man!
R.I.P the Vortex. :(
Orion is a pretty sick ride, though.
The Banshee is one one my top favorites, though.
I hope you rode Diamondback again and hopefully got a back row ride. The train is one of only 4 staggered row B&M models and since it has that longer train, you really get yanked over the hill for the drop. The airtime is unreal!
Unfortunately the day of our visit, a huge thunderstorm rolled thru mid afternoon and washed out the rest of our day there. Never got a 2nd ride on D-back. Next visit tho!
@@FrontSeatMedia not to knock DBack, but it’s back row or bust for me. The airtime is good in the front row on the camelback hills, but it’s the most intense floater airtime I’ve ever experienced in the back row. And that first drop takes the 215 ft drop and intensifies it lifting you out of your seat before you even crest the hill, then that 215 ft feels almost the same as the 300 ft drop on Orion. It’s crazy the difference.
I loved the banshee so much that I went on it like 4 times in a row! I loved it so much!
Man I miss the Vortex it was my favorite ride there at Kings Island!
This video is great. Thanks for taking the time out your day to make this
thanks for including the Vortex it brings back some fun memories and if you didn't know that The Beast is the longest and oldest wooden rollercoaster in the world and has been around since it's opening debut on April 14,1979 yes it's 42 years old and it's also one of my favorites there at the park... and where the firehawk sat is now the home of Orion so I'm wondering what's next to come to the park to replace the empty space where the Vortex once sat.
The record was beaten a long time ago I heard. The Beast may not even be in top 5 now
It’s not the oldest
The beast is a classic and one of my favorites despite its slow lift chain. It’s worth it!!✨
I miss KI, last time I was there was probs 6-7 years ago? I hope Flight Of Fear still has the retro vending machines by its exits
i was at KI today and im pretty sure they are still there!
I grew up going to King's Island... I still live about two hours away and I go every year for my birthday. I'm going to Cedar Point this week though! I've never been. Wish me luck!
The Beast sure is a good name for that coaster!!! Man, it's fast and so long!!! Adventure Express looks like a nice family coaster. Kings Island's Backlot looks more fun than the one at Kings Dominion, I noticed in this video they're slightly different, but something about KI's it looks better.
Beast is a great coaster. Adventure express is a great starter coaster and backlot at ki has a lot of its affects running compared to what I’ve seen in videos at dominion
@@lukejensen2521 I'm sure that it is. I would love to ride it someday! That's what I noticed here in the video that the effects were running. When I rode Back Lot Stunt Coaster at Kings Dominion, the effects weren't running which took a lot of the fun out of it and then not long after I rode it they shut it down for some reason. I got off and went to Intimidator 305 to meet back up with my parents and when we walked by Backlot it was closed. I'd have hate to be the one just about to get in the train and they tell you it's closed.
@@sportsygirl8 coming to kings island is definitely worth it
@@lukejensen2521 I'm sure it would!
Adventure Express may look mild and timid on video, but in real life. It will beat the crap out of you.
The conversation with the random guy on the diamondback was so wholesome lol reminds me of some randoms I’ve been on rollercoasters with .
Oh man, you have to go back and ride Racer after the retrack. It is delightful! Glad you got to ride the legendary Vortex before it was removed, loved that coaster so much.
i’m going next week and i’m so excited, i haven’t been there in 6 years!!!
i am somebody who is deathly afraid of coasters, and today a friend of mine convinced me to ride the bat. closed my eyes and screamed like death for the entire ride. went to this to see what i missed, and, yeah. i would have passed out if i opened my eyes. you all are much braver than ill ever be!
11:15 dude Maverick is my all time favorite I haven’t ridden it in forever
I swear he’s the joker on every ride he just laughs lol
Thank you for the POV 💯
No problem 👍
Thanks for watching -- Subscribe and Ride With Us!
@@FrontSeatMedia what day did you go ? I’m going in 2 weeks on a Tuesday and Wednesday. Just want to know how busy it might be.
@@tyronebrownjr1360 as someone who has lived in mason their whole life, i go to kings island a lot. the longest i have had to wait this season for a ride is an hour and that was for flight of fear when they didnt have many workers. i think you should be fine considering how much ive been this season
you know it's old when the vortex is there 😩
Wait why isn’t it there anymore?
@@Mhamon77 it’s too old now
@@phanomkuji6928 so they replaced it?
@@Mhamon77 no, they haven’t announced what they’re doing with the land yet
@@phanomkuji6928 ah, I see, thank you very much!
i’m literally passing out looking at the banshee clip, and you’re still going strong with a mere “oh baby”
Flight of fear is the best!
Yea. The line is always soooo long
Wrong.
@@davidmcaninch4714 it’s not the best But pretty good. I’ll say Orion or mystic timber’s is the best
@@dizhavoc2378 Orion’s new I know I’m gonna love it!!
@@dizhavoc2378 is flight of fear jerky
I love all kinds of theme and amusement parks and I love watching and learning about coasters, but I haven't ridden many because I was scared of drops and could never get okay with the organ-floaty feeling on the few I went on as a kid. Going on Saturday with some friends and hoping to overcome this, and this video helps a lot! It's good knowing what to expect, and I figured out a plan to start with some of the more tame coasters that don't have a ton of elements I'm unfamiliar or uncomfortable with and then work my way up as I go through the park. Thanks for all the great video!!
The banshee is the best coaster
Did you hear the news??
We need more coasters like the Firehawk, it was amazing 🔥
X2 is the only other one i know of
I was at KI yesterday and i rode Mystic Timbers and the Bat for the 1st time ever (i don't go too too often) and if you didn't need to put ur bags in a conveniently placed locker for MT, and the line was shorter, i would have ridden it multiple times. the back of the train is not AS good because *SPOILER* when ut in the shed you cant hear any of the music or projection wall. MT is VERY fast at 56mph. it does NOT feel like that. it felt a lot faster and as my dad said, it reminded him of The Beast, but better. My #1 fav ride at KI 100% would recommend MT no matter the age. But for the Bat i was scared to death the 1st time cuz it has a 70 ft drop (I rode this before MT which has a 109 ft drop) and its the tallest ride i've ever ridden (other than like the Windseeker or whatever) and the slow chain lift didn't help much,oh and there was a clanking above my head (the little triangles on the lift hill so if the chain breaks the train doesn't roll back into the station. but the chain lift set aside i was in the middle to back for the first time and the one behind the front the 2nd time, and theres a little drop at the top, and then it does a u-turn then the big one (which is only at a ~45 deg angle smh) and it was amazing, theres swinging and its one of my new fav rides at KI (MT being #1)
Edit: P.S. you forgot Orion (which i barely saw anyone on yesterday i wonder why)
Your soul leaves your body when you ride orion
@@rivalx7137 100 percent yes
wow good job man i really want to go to kings island for my birthday
I’m going there ,this weekend
Have fun, man!
Ride all the coasters!
Same!
I’m going there Monday
I went there the same time as you did u go on Saturday?
Cool many I saw you
14:51 Was about to go deaf with my airpods in 💀
Since B&M inverts tend to make me a little dizzy (Cedar Point's Raptor being the worst for me as far as dizziness goes, and the Batman the Ride clones sometimes making me slightly dizzy), I thought this would truly do me in with its 8 inversions. That being said, it didn't initially appeal to me, but I was stll planning to ride it once for the credit. I'm glad I did and wow was I surprised that It doesn't make me feel dizzy at all. It's like the inversions are gradual enough that I was fine. This is my favorite inverted coaster I've rode thus far.
Does Great Bear at HersheyPark make you dizzy? I need to know cause I’m riding it soon
@@fournerr_ I can't tell you as I haven't been to Hershey Park yet. Actually, it is on my to-do list if I ever get a chance someday. As of now, Sandustky Ohio is the fartherest east I've been. When it comes to B&M inverts, I've only ridden 4 : The original Batman at SFGAM and it's clone at SFSTL, Raptor & Banshee. I've ridden a few Vekoma Inverts and they actually dion't make me dizzy, but they're older Vekoma and nowhere near as good as the B&M Inverts.
I don't think dizzyness is a common complaint of B&M inverts among most people. I'm just wierd like that. I can actually ride some rides that are more dizzying to other people, like the Gerslaur
& Mauer spinners don't effect me at all, believe it or not.
Good luck when you go there. I think you'll be fine.
Yes, I hate Raptor. Banshee is awesome, though.
Banshee is my favorite I rode it and iys awsome!
Hey any tips on learning on how to face your fears of rollercoasters.I had this since I was like 6 or something and still have yet to get on one
Edit:I got on Thunderhawk at Dorney,I might get on Hydra next :D
Idk how but i somehow did it. I went to seaworld last year as a school field trip and there were 2 options, roller coasters or no rollerocasters. I basically just picked roller coasters to face my fear. After that I really liked them. All you need to do is just believe that you can!
@@onlinematthew Thx :D
try riding the small ones first, adventure express and the racers are awesome starters :D
you just gotta go on one, then ur hooked
@@Squelchmeky exactly what happened to me. I faced my fear literally 1 day before COVID and now I’m just dying to go on them.
This is gonna be me tomorrow 😂😂👍🏾. My first time on a roller coaster
diamondback the only roller coaster to ever scare me... not because of the actual height or speed but them seats it feels like you can fall right out lol
and the beast hill usually never is that slow to go up the hill lol ,its old
Really? I think there are super comfy.
great video
Do you mind telling me when this video was taken? I don't see people wearing masks and Vortex is still a ride.
when he made it you dont have to wear a mask anymore
@@kaydeng1122 he was asking for a date he was already aware they didn't have masks
He most likely took it shortly before the upload date. Ohio hasn't required masks for the past few weeks
this is a late upload because vortex was taken down and he does not have KI's new giga coaster in this video
@@getbrainseeds thanks
Went here last night. Can’t believe this park is 50 years old. I’ve been coming here since I was young. I haven’t been to too many amusement parks (only KI, Universal, and Disney) but I’m so glad that this one is the closest to me (I live in Cincinnati, I only went to universal and Disney recently when I was on vacation for spring break) KI is the best! I get gold passes every year
I miss the vortex though, that was always my favorite ride!
I remeber the day my mom and aunt tricked me to getting on the banshee. Had fun but will never forgive them 😂
Bro I have trauma on the beast 😂
I was in third grade and my dad got me on it
That’s why I stopped liking roller coasters for a while
Now I love them again 😂
Where’s Orion??
This was filmed before Orion was even announced. Notice both Vortex and Firehawk are in the video. Vortex was torn down after the 2019 season and Firehawk was torn down after the 2018 season. Had to have been 2018 or before.
