  • Hey guys! I hope yall enjoy this video of some of the defunct Kings Dominion rides and attractions. I couldn't add the waterslides as that would be a really long video. I tried to find clips for the major and recent rides. Enjoy!

    One 4th of July, the ride operators of Hurler let me & my 3 friends watch the fireworks from the top of the ride before the hill. I’ll never forget it. We were trying to do the last rides on all the rides while everyone else was scoping out spots on the courtyard thing for the fireworks, they were like we can park you guys up there for the show! Uh.. YES PLEASE

    Holy cow, The Crypt. Never turned down a ride until I came across the Crypt and said, "no kids, I'm sitting this one out. You all go ahead".

    Hurler wasn't removed, it was RMC'ed and eventually became twisted timbers.

    Ok so sad fact. I’ve always wanted to go on volcano ever since I was like 6. Everytime my aunt and mom went on it without me, I cried. 2019 summer I went to kings dominion & NOW i’m tall enough to ride it. I went and saw that it was like.. torn down. And I almost cried bc all those years of waiting to ride that ride and I will never get to.

      I'm very sorry. That ride was one of a kind, given the times. My sister and I always sat in the front every time we went on it, and it was one of the few things we both agreed on. Saying goodbye to the Volcano was like saying goodbye to an old friend... I will always miss that ride...

    I'm really upset about the Crypt, though I can't say I'm surprised...when I went in October two years ago, there were only three other people besides myself who wanted to go on the ride. So if they're getting maintenance issues plus a lack of interest, then that just gives them more reasons to decommission the ride.

    I remember going on The Crypt with my sister the same summer it first open, and what I recall from the experience was me screaming like a bitch, then turning to look at my sister, who was sat there with a stone face and unflinching. After we got off, she proceeded to call the ride "lame."

      why would you want them to bring back hurler lol, that was an awful wooden coaster and they already rmc'd it into twisted timbers which is one the best coasters in the us , Also crypt and volcano needed to go way to much maintenance issues, and plus a 4d free spin coaster will be replacing the crypt which is a way better ride experience.

    • @jadag9826
      @jadag9826 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hurler was a very bumpy ride. I would love to have the volcano back bc I waited for years to get taller to ride it and now that it’s gone I will never get the chance to. But grizzly is also the first roller coaster I ever went on, I have great memories on it. So if they removed it I would be so sad lol.

    • @Ihatethoosies
      @Ihatethoosies 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@jadag9826 yeah its really sad about Volcano i went on it in 2009. But it was the right decision to remove it . It was a prototype that had tons of maintenance problems and they really tried to make it last as long as possible. Also I heard maintenence was a nightmare because of how it was built into the Volcano. It was an amazing one of a kind coaster. I'm sure cedarfair will find a worthy replacement. Also i agree about Grizzly i really love that coaster its pretty rough but that adds to it plus the forest setting is awesome.
