Wow this brings back memories. I grew up in Atlanta and pretty much lived at Six Flags every summer. I moved away and haven’t been there in over 20 years but this tour brings it all back. Now I want to come to Atlanta and go there!
Though a lot has changed at the park in the last 20 years, much of it has remained as it was. Very cool to hear that you can still see enough of that to get nostalgic! Hope you can make it back someday. If you do, email us. I'd love to shoot a mini documentary on your reaction to returning after all this time! Thanks for watching!
This is the closest park to me. It's pretty good but it gets really hot in the summer time. They have a nice little collection of coasters though. For a Six Flags it's a solid park.
Fun fact! The “center piece” of the park, the carousel, was relocated to this 6 flags in the late 1960s from Chicago. There was a park there called Riverview park which was the largest amusement park in the world at the time:)
Indeed! It was built in 1908 and had famous riders over the years including president Warren G. Harding and even notorious gangster, Al Capone. I absolutely love the ornate carvings along the top of the carousel. Thanks for watching, Lizzie!
The "employee access road" over the walkways 4 mins in is not a road at all, it's the train track and that's a rock/concrete trestle. I will allow that it does double as an access road, probably ever since the Great Gasp was introduced (and sat for a while where Acrophobia is now, later moved to where Goliath house sits now while the Air Racer occupied that spot). There's been 3 or 4 versions of that bridge over the years but originally it was train track only.
She was right. There was a swinging pirate ship there called the Flying Dutchman. It was there when I was a kid, along with the Wheelie, the Highland Swings and the Great Gasp!
I want to go to this place I need a fanny pack, new sunglasses, new shoes and new water shoes and get my heart checked out to see what’s safe and I will be all set. I already got a bathing suit a new one for the water park part of the park
The way I been doing today I probably can’t ride roller coasters my health hasn’t been all that great like my heart has been racing my heart rate has been all over the place
I actually love tilta whirls, especially with a group of people with a good amount of weight in the cart. Believe it or not, ive had some rides that im sure the positive gs are 4 or higher, and if you hit the down slope just right yoy get floater at the same time. Its amazing
The last time I was at Six flags back around 2004 , I have not been in years , The tickets were about $9.00 when I went in the early 1970's and now they're probably over $60.00 to get in , What ever happen to the Sky Buckets and also the Bumper Cars ? Does anybody know ? 9-3-2021 12:49 am I live in Toccoa ,Ga which is probably over 100 miles North East of Six Flags Over Georgia .
Season tickets during a sale are around $60. Day tickets are more. Sky buckets have been removed. Bumper cars, too. Sad to see classic attractions removed but the park is better for it, believe it or not. Toccoa isn't that far so I would recommend a season pass.
My nieces were talking about roller coasters the other day I told them I had a physical this was the other day I just found out I had a heart problem and have to see a cardiologist. I will have to ask him about the rides especially roller coasters I may not be healthy enough
@@gpcoasters7824 no thank YOU for making such a helpful video oh and it's kind of ironic how pandemonium is getting built in the video and is closed right now. That behemoth is never open!!!

I’m looking forward to going in a couple months for my birthday. Never been but everything I’ve seen from videos makes it look like a solid park!
Looks like you'll get to the ride the newly reopened Mindbender by then. Have a dope trip!

Before monster plantation it was the okefenoke which opened in 1967
Okefenokee closed in 1980 and 1981 is when monster plantation opened
I visited here in June of 2016, and I must say for what it is, it's not a bad park at all.
It's one of the better Six Flags in our opinion! You gotta come back soon. A lot has changed at the park since 2016. Thanks for watching!
Wow that looks amazing
It's a great park! Thanks for watching!

Good point about the positive and negative g's. Thanks for watching!
They have a tilt a whirl at lake winnie too it’s so fun
How many people can fit in a seat?

So they guess your weight then weigh you? I guess I would do it to see how accurate they are even though I’m sensitive about it
A movie called funland was filmed their back in 1985

Im so damn scared of the rollercoaster like everytime I get on I puke
Try using Dramamine. It's for motion sickness. That might help you overcome your fear as well!

Sky buckets I can do
Georgia scorcha used to be yellow
18:47 ik im late to this video. But wasnt superman ultimate flight the og?
Yes, it was the original and was designed by B&M specifically for SFOG. That's why it follows the terrain so well. Thanks for watching!

You're too kind! But yeah, it's sad that Pandemonium is such a fun flat ride, yet so unreliable!
@@gpcoasters7824 exactly❤️
Mindbender open 1978
great American scream machine in 1976
@@hdturner1 Scream Machine opened in 1973, just had its 50th anniv last year.
