HangTime is a steel "dive coaster" roller coaster at Knott's Berry Farm in Buena Park, California But "HOW SAFE IS HANGTIME?" Share this video • HangTime roller coaste...
Rode it for my first time on Saturday night (during Knott's Scary Farm). That initial rise and drop are intense, but once you're on your way, it's just a really nice (and very smooth) coaster! Great ride!
I operated hang time in early February when Great America sent out the local ride operators to Knotts to work and it was the biggest coaster I have operated and I was amazed by how safe and updated the controls are and the restraints and made me feel a lot better with the restraints even though they look small and not as secure as they are
I'm not concerned about the wheels, I'm concerned about the restraint. My fear is always flying out of it. I need someone to make me feel better about not flying out. The one thing about this ride that made me not want to go on it again was the feeling of lifting and feeling like I'm going to fly out. I just need some good convincing and assurance.
it does FEEL like you’re going to fall out. it’s the same for me but trust me you won’t. you won’t because if you do the company will get sued and that means less money. so they make it more safe. they test it every single day
Fear of flying out? A thousand people ride every day and it's been up for years and ain't no one fly out. You're not flying out lol hope you've been on it since you made this post 3 years ago lol
Don't let your negative thoughts come to you, think about that you'll make it to the end. I rode HangTime like 2 times. And the truth is, this... is the safest roller coaster in the world. And that's the truth.
This video really helped me get on. I love this ride this was one of the very first roller coasters I have been on since I have always been scared. But it’s really not that bad. When I was going up I will be honest I felt like I was going to fall but I knew I wasn’t. I just kept my eyes closed when we went up. My first ride was in the front and honestly since I’m not a roller coaster person I like it better in the front. You feel so much more safe knowing what is in front of you instead of just wait to feel the drop. If you really want a thrill go in the back. You do go a lot faster it feels like and honestly it’s just pure fun. I went on 9 times in one day and I checked all the rows to see which one was the best. If you don’t like roller coasters, front or second row. If you do and you really want a thrill last or even third
Thank you for this. I'll just subscribe to you to support your channel. I just went on it last night and it was super smooth. Tbh, I was really nervous when the train started. The hill up and drop were intense, after that, it was just fun as I discovered "by watching it over and over waiting in line for 2h and 50 minutes" that it only has 2 full inversions. The rest are just like what a surfer does to the waves. It goes up and it turns to the right or left or upward motion. 🙇😏 it's really smooth and my first and only time so far was the night version. The only drawback of this ride is that "like most rides in Knott's are" is short. Just when I started to scream "Woooho" for the first time in a coster, the ride was over 😥.
Dude I know damn well it ain’t safe cause when you’re skinny and you go up you feel like you are going to slip out no lie man I was grabbing on so hard bruh I was telling people to hold my ass down cause I was gonna fly out 😂😂
I'm not skinny but I felt the same thing -- everyone does have that "I'm about to slip out" when the train is in the lift... that's the hangtime right there, I believe the lift hill is the scariest part of the ride. great ride and super fun nevertheless
Lol I always have this paranoia about inverting rides that use a lap bar. Doesn’t mean I won’t get on; would rather just opt for over the shoulder harnesses lol.
Fun fact: You're more likely to get eaten by a shark while going to the beach than dying on a roller coaster. Additionally, you're more likely to get struck by lightning or hit by a car while walking the street. Surprisingly, even the chances of going into a plane and crashing are higher than the likelihood of dying on a roller coaster. Another interesting fact is that the most dangerous part of going to a theme park is actually driving there.
A roller coaster is probably the safest vehicle a person will ever enter in their entire life. Wayyyyyy safer than the car they got in to drive to the amusement park.
H͙o͙n͙e͙y͙b͙e͙e͙ • H͙a͙r͙m͙o͙n͙y͙ it depends, it felt normal and fun to me because I enjoy rollercoasters. But to people who don’t like intense rollercoasters I think it might be scary
I am terrified.just because of coasters. Ghost Rider was ok for me. Can u recommend another ride other than Ghost. I don't do launch coasters. Is silver bullet tame?
I remember riding this ride 2 years ago I think they need to use a pull down shoulder harness in my opinion i felt like i was about to fall out the mf this ride possibly can be a freak accident ready to happen
That's great because I was really loose in Electric Eel last weekend at SeaWorld San Diego I felt like I was falling out never again I was clenching on with my eyes closed
Um quite safe. In fact, generally all roller coasters here in the United States are confirmed safe to ride, and the chances of getting injured are VERY low, and the chances of dying are even lower.
You don't even need to tell them this, it's just basic statistics. It's like people who are afraid to go in the ocean because of sharks, even though you are probably 1000 times more likely to die driving on your way to the beach.
Congratulations for making the leap....I'm happy you went on the Ride.... I love the thrills of dropping from the sky on a coaster. Will you ever ride it again?

WildDieWoodard, Hangtime is a classic ride : )
Awesome, there needs to be more videos like this out there!
I love watching roller coaster videos.....Everyone has a different point of view and it's great : )
I went on hang time on my field trip to Knotts. I almost chickened out until I saw this :)
Naruto, That's awesome....There's nothing like your first Hangtime ride : )
this is honestly a good way to get people on rides ima use this video on my friend next time we go
Good luck getting your friend on the ride, and have a good time.

I feel super safe on Hangtime : )
I actually did it and it was pretty smooth, definitely doing it again
Matthew, You are a classic man : )
@@jams155entertainment7 Thank you... Sadly it's closed this summer but yes it is the smoothest ride I've been one for sure!
@@matthewhungate7123that or ghostrider
I went on hangtime and I thought I was gonna fall off 😭
But you DID IT! Congratulations : )
I’m so scared, should I go on it??
the coaster is literally named Hangtime. its Designed to give you Hangtime.
@@cookiedoe7764 You Can do it!
E too

Tara Steele the only reason you would fall out is if your very overweight and dont fit on the ride. Restraints have never once just let go lol

Tara, This dive coaster is so smooth....You have to try it just once : )

Tati, 9 times in one day has to be a record : )
Back to you dude, I can't ride these things! Watched and liked and hit the big red button!
all im gonna say abt this ride is that the screams are genuine, authentic fear for the first 10 seconds
Hello Ashleigh, The screams are amazing : )
definitely the scariest ride at knott’s berry farm, my legs were cramping after from how tense i was during the hanging bit😂

I’m dead🤣

X2 made me feel a little insecure, but it's more or less an illusion. They would not be running this if it wasn't safe.
It is

lapbar=safe
my friend hates coasters and I love em so I should show this to him
Sea Doggo, This ride is super safe!
Oh the lapbar - Well I was asked to shoot another video. I will addressed the Lapbar
Lol I always have this paranoia about inverting rides that use a lap bar. Doesn’t mean I won’t get on; would rather just opt for over the shoulder harnesses lol.
Looks like a ride in Chicago! Thank you for comming “over” I did the same. Can’t wait till your next upload I got that bell on😎❤️😎❤️
This is Big Brain knowledge for my favorite ride
I LOVE Knott Berry Farm : )
At first I was so scared but after this I got on
Did you enjoy the ride? : )
HangTime is my favorite ride there.
This is awesome. Have a great night!
Thank you - we love filming roller coasters : )
Now I know that it's safe ya!
HAHA!

Mr. Mule, It's a classic ride : )
JAMS 155 ENTERTAINMENT ye when I went on it like a year or so ago it was super fun

I love this ride!
Cool
I love silver bullet
@@Cherry-YeuKpop1001 5 months late
I went on Hangtime the other day and I cried because it so fast it blows wind in your eyes
Sh0ck, I salute you for having the courage to try it out : )
i go faster in my car with the windows down lmao. Its the 90 degree angles that really give it the fear factor.
I won't get on the ride hang time because I saw it going upward towards the sky I'm sorry getting stike on hang time the ride?
Thanks I Can go on it now
Have fun
A roller coaster is probably the safest vehicle a person will ever enter in their entire life. Wayyyyyy safer than the car they got in to drive to the amusement park.
You have the speed and the thrills : )
I'm worried about the seatbelts that's what I'm most scared of that the seat belt will come undone or something could you please explain
It’s really fun! When it stops it feels like your seatbelt is going to come off, but it doesn’t
Litlindsey I have a question as someone who doesn’t like intense roller coaster does it make you feel weird when you do the loop/go upside down
H͙o͙n͙e͙y͙b͙e͙e͙ • H͙a͙r͙m͙o͙n͙y͙ it depends, it felt normal and fun to me because I enjoy rollercoasters. But to people who don’t like intense rollercoasters I think it might be scary

I’m not afraid for the safety reasons. I’m scared because I have motion sickness and I don’t want to blow chunks on people.
Hondo 500E, I'm sorry to hear about your motion sickness ....And NOT blowing Chunks on people is a good thing : )
Here’s the thing. I know I’m not gonna die, I just hate the sensation of falling or going down a drop
PoahNosner me too omg
you won’t fall out. and there’s drops in basically every ride at Knotts
Poaah, You are not going to die on this ride my friend : ) It's fun you should try it out!
Elizabeth, You can do it!
I remember riding this ride 2 years ago I think they need to use a pull down shoulder harness in my opinion i felt like i was about to fall out the mf this ride possibly can be a freak accident ready to happen
Nice 👍
Peace and Love
Amazing video. Watched, liked and hit the red button #unitytribe
I got you Fam - Thanks for the feedback
That's great because I was really loose in Electric Eel last weekend at SeaWorld San Diego I felt like I was falling out never again I was clenching on with my eyes closed
Hello Andrea, The most important part is you tried. Who knows you may try another roller coaster. : )
I know I’m late, but that was the same thing I felt :)
I felt like I was hanging on for my life but it was safe and such a fun ride
Today was my first time going to knotts and I went to hangtime and boy was it scary😨
Rick, most people don't have the courage to get on the ride. I'm happy you were strong enough to try : )
@@jams155entertainment7 it was scary going down 🤯
Yeah it was fun my favorite ride
How is it safe on hang time the ride?
New friends here loving your content
Well said

Well, I'm happy you got it done : ) Welcome to the other side!

@@jams155entertainment7 thanks
I’m still kinda scared to get on, every time I go I’m like “I’ll get on it” but I end up getting scared
Robert, After you try Hangtime once..It's a piece of cake : )
I just rode it for the first time yesterday
Jayla, Congratulations on riding Hangtime : )
HOLA GRT DEAR
Ok Ik this is late but in hangtime do the workers tell you where to sit or do you decide bcuz I want to go front row.
Batrix phantom They tell where to sit but you could just ask them if you could sit in the front, that’s what I did
they tell you but if u wanna go to front seat ask you’ll just wait a couple minutes more
Hello Frank, You can ask the ride operator to sit in the front or the back.
It saw it get stuck going up the lift for over 15 minutes or longer
Hello Dean, I'm sorry you had a rough experience. Hangtime is a smooth easy ride.
Um quite safe. In fact, generally all roller coasters here in the United States are confirmed safe to ride, and the chances of getting injured are VERY low, and the chances of dying are even lower.
Hellacia, That's very true.
100% safe
CORRECT
It's completely safe to go on the hang time?
its the loop that scares me😂
You don't even need to tell them this, it's just basic statistics. It's like people who are afraid to go in the ocean because of sharks, even though you are probably 1000 times more likely to die driving on your way to the beach.
The first time trying something new can be the most frightening thing in the world. After you try Hangtime once, it is a piece of cake.
Hello my new friend
Hello welcome to our page : )
You could have said it in 5 seconds by saying, "If it wasn't a safe ride then the ride would have been shut down already."
Holy GP vid
We love Dive Coasters : )
drop by from 2 chicks live
Is supreme scream safe?
Fun fact you’re most likely would get eaten by a shark while going to the beach then dying on a roller coaster
I’ve been on it it’s so fun lol
It's becoming a classic ride : )
Knew it! I should’ve went on it, but my stupid friend didn’t want to 🙄
Kamryn, You have to try it next time : )
When i went on it, i felt i was about to fall out of the seat when it went up
Congratulations for making the leap....I'm happy you went on the Ride....
I love the thrills of dropping from the sky on a coaster.
Will you ever ride it again?
that’s what it feels like but you won’t
Can u get stuck going up?
Hello Bro, I've heard on super hot days..The operators have to reboot the ride.
@@jams155entertainment7 is that because it can get stuck going up on a very hot day?
hello deqr just got ur back wish u will do the same thanks
Does hangtime have seatbelts
Hello Celestia, There are no seatbelts. You have a lap bar that keep you locked in place.
@@jams155entertainment7 oh geez lmao no wonder i didnt want to go on it when i went to knotts
@@thuanberry_you wont fall off, seatbelts are more of a way to make you feel safe or a measuring device
If the ride isn’t safe the park wouldn’t have build it
Answer: unless you have a serious medical condition the doesn't allow you to ride roller coasters, then you are 100% safe.
Hello Brock, Riding roller coasters at Knott's is my medication. I feel great after the big drops : )
If your skinny this ride is a nightmare
Marcelino Martin, You have to hold on really tight : )
What's weird is I'm 9 and I could get on it lol
Hello, TechPlays, yes HangTime is a fun ride.
TechPlays wow you’re cool
My six year old sister could go on this ride. She is actually tall enough for it and she actually almost went on it.
My cousin is 8 yrs old and he went on it.
I’m going to try this with my friend who is scared
You should this is a very smooth roller coaster : )
JAMS 155 ENTERTAINMENT yeah I love this ride
