watching rollercoasters off-ride like this is so satisfying. they just swoop through the air so smoothly, it’s kinda beautiful
I agree! :)
Wing coasters may not be the best to ride, but they are so nice to look at.
I definitely agree
It's almost as satisfying as riding them yourself.
@@porrasm true especially with a smooth coaster with airtime.
These rides are just awesome to look at
They truly are! :)
*Sees a new Vekoma SLC opening* SHOULD'VE GOTTEN A B&M!!!!
SwitchbackSylveon I'm sure b&m is pissed off at universal Orlando for removing dragon challenge
*cough cough* coaster studios
@@santiagorojas9636 could you sub ?
naaa intamin is
@@coasterhockygamingboy9549 itamin is what?
Fantastic video! It's no secret that I am a big fan of B&M coasters and this video really does a great job of explaining who the firm is. Great job once again.
Thank you! I think most are a fan of B&M coasters, they do the job perfectly. :)
Indeed they do!
I'm sure b&m is pissed off at universal Orlando for removing dragon challenge eventhou I never rode it
I have to say, if I ever got to ask the creators one thing, it would be how they managed to construct such beautifully smooth rides. I've only ridden a couple of their rollercoasters but the smoothness and ride experience is something unbeatable. I'd love to see them continue to introduce new and exciting elements and ride techs in the near future
I would ask when will you make custom loopers
I will always have such a soft spot in my heart for Air. I went from liking coasters to loving them with that first ride on it. It was so smooth, so beautifully swooping, it captured my imagination.
The fact that the whole video comes without a "but" or "however" when it comes to reliability and success says a lot. B&M are incredibly accomplished on creating rides that are packed with thrill and very often huge in their own league (such as big looping inverted and floorless coasters), or towering over whole parks like their latest Gigas, and yet, they are crowd pleasing, silky smooth and that counts a LOT when a park is investing million on a new ride. Kudos to the company for its admirable track record (pun intended lol). And for everyone saying they are non innovative, take a look at what their designs brought to the early 90s and how that would set the bar higher for the entire coaster industry - not to mention the inverted coaster breakthrough itself.
no accident happened yet
They are, as a company, a true example of absolutely exceptional engineering at play. Their rides have great capacity, great reliability, great longevity, and they are incredibly (almost unbelievably) safe. Definitely a very different design philosophy from say Intamin (who deserves much credit for pushing boundaries to new levels, but sometimes with substantial consequences), but once B&M does offer a product, you can have a high level of confidence that product will excel in every measurable metric. I also love how they use a US steel producer for all their rides.
Can’t go wrong with a B&M coaster! Great video, very informative 👍🏻
I agree! Thanks man. :)
You can technically go wrong... Vortex?
Im sure b&m is pissed off at universal Orlando for removing dragon challenge
@@coreylineberry8557 Alot of people love Vortex actually.
@@ArrowThrills Universal sucks because they became the first to delete a B&M. Just sell both coasters to separate parks. Discovery Kingdom could have red and Michigan's Adventure could have blue. And I'm not even kidding about the latter, they need a decent roller coaster
Gotta love the look and sound of a B&M. Not only can you identify one by its sturdy box smoothly flowing track, you can also often hear them quite a distance away, as air being pushed through and over the track makes a very distinctive low roaring sound like a large turbofan aircraft.
Should have gotten a B&M.
No Coaster Studios memes allowed. ;)
You should get a B&M
Harry, does a boomerang fly off the the track?
COUGH COUGH Coaster Studios
TheCoasterCompleater yes They should Have B&M Girl Yes They Should
B&M really does have a long history of making world-class roller coasters, and I'm glad you made a video on it :) They are just a high-quality roller coaster manufacturer, and they are well-deserved to have a video like this explaining their work since 1988, when they first became public. Like you said, I hope their number of coaster models expand within the next several years, since they are currently my favourite coaster manufacturer.
I definitely agree, they've created many fantastic rides. :)
Im sure b&m is pissed off at universal Orlando for removing dragon challenge
*watches the history of B&M, Still cries when its mentioned Dueling Dragons no longer exists*
Gotta wonder too why they just outright scrapped it as opposed to saving or selling or just moving it somewhere else!?!
@@jey240 that was actually on universal I believe. They didn't want the rides going anywhere else though if you go to busch gardens their invert is very similar to the ice side
11:58 t h i c c
I’ve watched this video around 15 times and each time I’ve learned something new
Awesome, thanks for watching! :)
Call me a fanboy, but this is easily the best roller coaster manufacturer in my biased opinion. First coaster I ever rode was a B&M, which was Medusa in Six Flags Discovery Kingdom, and it was an absolutely enjoyable experience.
Arrow is the best!
Rmc is better
Every B&M coaster I've been on has been fantastic. I haven't been on that many coasters yet, but all my favorites so far that are still standing are B&M.
Wow this video is awesome! B&M is one of the best rollercoaster manufacturers, I love all of their models! I see a lot of amazing coasters from my home parks in this video. You did a great job with this! 🎢🎢
Thanks for watching, I'm glad you enjoyed it! :)
Itamin is better
I'm sure b&m is pissed off at universal Orlando for removing dragon challenge
I love the roar the B&Ms like Kumba, the original Hulk, Raptor (CP), Nemesis, and Green Lantern make. That’s why B&M is my favorite.
They do have a fantastic roar. :)
Yeah too bad stupid neighbors and environazis want them silenced. Hell even Cedar Point which has absolutely no neighbors had to silence Gatekeeper
Will forever be a B&M fanboy, since they opened nemmy at Alton Towers, so many wonderful rides. Shambahla/Mako are amazing! I was recently blown away by montu at busch, just expected a bog standard B&M, then remembered, B&M dont do Bog standard!
I agree, they've made a large number of fantastic rides! :)
Itamin is better, I'm sure b&m is pissed off at universal Orlando for removing dragon challenge
@@ArrowThrills nah
Peter Stoneman,
Nemesis is my favourite experienced coaster
@@batshtcrazy5293 what's suspended rigs ?
I'm a fan of B&M. They're amazing. Good job guys. Thank you for your dedication.
Nemesis should be the next king of England lmao
Love that Thunderbird was mentioned!
It looks like a great coaster! :)
Those title cards for rides were amazing and helpful! Great video, easily your best.
Thank you, I'm glad you like it, it means a lot! :)
B&M are definitely not the innovators, but they are the refiners.
I agree! :)
I really don't get this...it seems like they innovated alot (invert, wing, dive, standup, floorless, hyper...). Why are they definitely not innovators?
They didn't create the first hyper, arrow did, they just made them better, X2 is technically a wing coaster they just took out the rotation and made them something different, the arrow suspended came out before the invert but those couldn't do inversion, Togo made the first stand up, but they all suck compared to the B&M's. Floorless is a cool take on standard trains, but not "revolutionary". The dive model is really the only thing that was innovated, and that's really just a holding break before the drop, but they are different and really cool. Heck, even the Flying Dutchman came out before the B&M flyer, but the Vekoma's are nothing compared to the B&M's
x2 is not a wing coaster they invented them, suspendeds arent in the same group as inverts so they invented inverts, and floorless is something new they invented
my point is that the idea was already there for both the wing and invert. Even in this video its mentioned how the arrow suspended was an earlier concept of hanging below the track. and also, x2 is technically a wing coaster, the seat rotation is an extra element
WOW, did not realize B and M's first roller coaster was at my home park!
this was super informative, entertaining and beautifully edited! thank you!!
No, thank you for the kind comment! :)
Thank you for making this video! I am a B&M lover so I love to see which models came first and all of that
No problem, thanks for watching, I'm glad you enjoyed it. :)
RIP Dueling Dragons!
Matt Lydon I'm sure b&m is pissed at universal Orlando for removing dragon challenge eventhou I never rode it
Did it get renamed? I rode it as Dueling Dragons.
@@bprebula yes it got renamed dragon challenge because a tourist lost his eye and it stopped dueling
I worked on that ride and rode it every day for about a year--miss it a lot.
@@ArrowThrills no, it was renamed because of the harry potter theming they added to the area.
Great video, awesome information! I learned something today.
That's fantastic to hear, thanks for watching. :)
Amazing video. I love how much i learn from your channel!
Thank you, that's fantastic to hear! :)
I’ve been eagerly waiting for you to do this video! Thank you!!
No problem, thanks for watching! :)
Intamin is going to be a long one if this if videos already takes 15 minutes
Indeed it will!
vekoma too
4640jds you’re horrendous at parties
Finally! I was so excited for this!!!!
Walter , Claude and John Wardley , 3 wise men indeed 👌🏼.
I could have cried when they chopped up Dragon Challenge 😢, shame it didn’t moved to another park .
Great 👍🏼 Shots & History .Thank you I really enjoyed it
Being the B&M Fanboy that I am, I was so excited to see this video pop up in my recommended. Thanks once more Harry for my hard on
Ha ha no problem, im glad you enjoyed it, even if it was a little bit too much. ;)
Would it be strange to call you 'Hard on Harry'?
Extremely strange
Good
jacobbob09 well, u r a strange man 😂😂
Aka the best rollercoaster manufacturer
Tiara Queen Did you remember RMC?
TheCoasterCompleater do you remember pinfari
Intamin & RMC are better
It's the third, RMC and Intamin is better.
Rmc is better, I like B&M and intamin the same
B&M roller coasters are also the most colourful in the world as well. A lot of their products such as gatekeeper and kumba and montu for example their colour schemes are so perfect and just makes you want to look at the rides more in a beautiful way. They're my favourite manufacturer and nemesis is my favourite roller coaster I've ever ridden so far... although it's a long time since I been to a theme park.
Learned so much! Great content, Coaster Bot!
That's great to hear, thanks for watching! It means a lot :)
It's - a - beautiful editing. Great video.
Thank you! :)
Intamin: *exists*
Literally everyone: *shoulda been a B&M*
Nah Chief intamin is better
thats weird, cuz, besides the technical issues with intamin, i generally prefer their rides over b&m
I really like Gerstlauer too
I love intimidator 305 and Superman. Pantheon is looking epic. Still, B&M are the best in my book.
Great video, watched all the way through, highly informative and entertaining, new sub.
Amazing production value, love this!
Thank you! :)
RMC explained
It's on the list. :) Thanks for the suggestion
Great video once again Harry!
Thanks Aron! :)
This is exactly what I was looking for, an explanation between roller coasters and how to tell them apart.
Awesome to hear, thanks for watching! :)
This was an excellent mini-documentary, please do more!!
Thank you, there's more to come this year, so stay tuned! :)
I demand a Pinfari: Explained video
One day maybe ;)
@Darth MGTOW Pinfari: Why???
@chef Darth MGTOW the coaster fan from hogwarts there's an explanation for the headache after any of their coasters with over the shoulder restraints. That's for sure
And an explanation on why they didn't just stick to making Zyklons and Wacky Worms, at least those aren't as rough as their RC line of coasters.
Very educational video. I learned alot. Great job, maybe you can do intamin explained in the future.
Thank you, we do hope to cover Intamin in the future. :)
did you know an intamin will break down when you think its name
I was so hype for this video! GOOD VIDEO HARRY
Thank you, I'm really glad you enjoyed it! :)
Watched this whole video and thoroughly enjoyed it! It must have taken you a very long time to make, wow!
Awesome! It does take ages to make, but the final product is worth it :)
Thx for another entertaining video. B&M is my favorite manufacturer due to smoothness and intensity! :)Did u see that Theme Park Crazy just got 20,000 subs?
No problem, thanks for watching! I did see, it's awesome that he got 20K. A massive congratulations to him :)
B&M always gives us smooth and comfortable ride with comfy restraint
-I once slept on Phaethon's lifthill-
-because of comfy seat-
Very true!
But when you woke up you regretted it
Fantastic video, Harry! Everybody has their own preferences when it comes to manufacturers, and that's cool. B&M happens to be my favorite, and my family's, so I very much enjoyed this insight.
Thank you, it means a lot! B&M are a great choice for favourite manufacturer. :)
Watching this video again since my home park has so many B&Ms. This is a great video. Thanks for the upload!
No problem, thanks for watching! :)
“Should have gotten a B&M”
Dueling Dragons was definitely a career highlight for them. Too bad it's being removed 😭
ohbogey it’s quite rough fun but rough I was lucky enough to ride it the year it was removed I rode it on April 6th of 2017
Im pissed and also is b&m for dumb universal Orlando for removing dragon challenge eventhou I never rode it
Wait it is!!!!!!
Ik im late but , i love how these “explained” videos are relatively short , and theyre just good
Thanks for the kind words about the videos, it means a lot!
Their coasters arent as intense as some others but they're still up there, and they're also so much more smooth and comfy than any other I've ever ridden, definitely the best company
I never realized how many B&M’s Six Flags Magic Mountain has. Geeeeez.
Six Flags Great Adventure has even more at 5
Magic Mountain has 4 and Great Adventure has 5.
Quality video as always brother 👍
Thank you my dude. :)
I still have the Thunderbird "Launch passes" from its opening day, sadly. I did ride it after a while, and it's a great B&M wing coaster.
Thunderbird looks fantastic for sure!
Easily my favorite manufacturer! Great video as always! My gf is making breakfast in the other room and said your voice is soothing.
Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed it. Tell your girlfriend I said thanks for the kind comment about my voice! :)
"The Inverted Coaster quickly gained momentum"
Top notch pun.
Thank you ;)
Do an S&S explained next!.
I'll add it to the list :)
COASTER BOT thank you!! S&S is very underrated i think, and isn’t well known as its backgrounds!!
Pet Paradise some S&S rides are a tad bit painful, might be the reason why
Schutz and Staffel?
Stan Checkets 4 the win!
Great video man! This is my favorite series!
Thank you, I'm glad you liked it. It's a great series! ;)
As a Swiss I must say that I am so proud! Most Swiss people dont know the fact that B&M coasters and Intamin are engineered here and are in fact one of the best manufacturers!
My favorite B and M coaster is Fury 325
Coaster Creations It’s *B&M! Why do some people type “B and M”?
Awesome! :)
Started in Switzerland, then known worldwide.
Intamin also did that, but whatever.
RMC is about to do that also, with two additions outside of the U.S. in 2019
*cough cough* what about Wildfire? That was made in Sweeden. That was a RMC. *sighs*
depression is for the rich ?
contracted by RMC however subcontracted by VEKOMA since RMC owns some old assets from ARROW DYNAMICS and ARROW had VEKOMA as a sub contractor! get it? its a bit confusing i know
and just to say. No B&M rides in their own country. I think not even a Intamin one here. The closest to borders s Silver Star at Europa Park.
Again, great video. Thanks for your efforts
Thank you, thanks for watching! :)
It’s so cool to know B&M makes there track in my city technically because I live in Cincinnati and well the factory is a county that is apart of the Cincinnati Metropolitan area it is so cool
YAAAS HARRY
YAAAS
I guessed right :D
Nice one!
B&M is the best coaster builder because they can build divecoasters, wingcoaster and invertedcoasters
Loved this video and I love this series. I can’t wait for the next one. Can’t wait for one on Arrow. Keep up the amazing work Harry :)
Thank you, I'm glad you enjoy the series! There's many more to come, so stay tuned. :)
dope video. got me interested in looking up the manufacturers of all my favorite rides at six flags great america and nearly every single one was b&m. mad respect to this company
Awesome to hear! Thanks for watching :)
“Intamin has created a number of unsuccessful rides” *shows I305*
Did Andrew edit this video?
Ikr 😂, I305 was definitely not unsuccessful, not the best giga, but undoubtedly successful
Are you sure? i305 had always had low ridership, even on busy days. A successful ride would not alienate itself from the general public that music. Ultimately it was a bad investment for the park.
Also Andrew can't edit lol
I305 is an amazing ride (my favorite giga) but he is right it has low ridership
COASTER BOT that's true. I went on a day when dominator had a 45 min line, volcano had a 1 hr+ line, avalanche had a 30 min line, flight of fear had a 40 min line, and backlot had a 30 min line, i305 had a...wait for it....walk-on. It was a walk-on. It was CRAZY.
"Shoulda got a B&M..."
My first ever coaster with inversions was Black Mamba at Phantasialand...
Still one of my favorite rollercoaster because it is intense but smooth at the same time...
The quality of B&M is outstanding...
Like the quality of your videos :)
Nice work :)
That's awesome to hear! You are too kind, thank you :)
another great video as always coasterthot!
Thank you! :)
>see this video in recommended section
>autisticexcitement.jpg
well worth the trouble making this video caused...
Definitely! :)
It's great to see how much John Wardley was involved in the designing of some of these coasters :)
Great video! Keep up the good work! 👍
Thank you, it means a lot :)
Blue Fire Mega Coaster?
NightDribs that is made by Mack
Mack made that.
oldmeme.exe
it was a joke, in reference to 'Mega coasters explained'
Nobody cares make more toaster videos
I'm pretty sure more people care about this than a freaking toaster my dude... learn to spell before you go on a rant about what others care about
Sydni Schaller I think it was more of a joke than a "rant"
It was a joke guys
Sydni Schaller what did he spell wrong exactly? Looks fine to me... maybe you should check before you use that super overused roast. And besides it’s a joke. Learn internet sarcasm before you come back.
its time to name that Toaster lol moss machince is back!
Amazing video! I LEARNED SO MUCH!!!!!!
Thank you, that's great to hear :)
OMG THANK YOU!
I miss dueling dragons so much! They were the first roller coasters I rode way back in 8th grade in 2005! I remember I went on my 8th grade field trip to Islands of adventure and my friends and I would go on that ride over and over again. Such fun memories :)
Dueling Dragons has not been Dueling for a long time before it went though. They stopped synchronized launches when Harry Potter Land showed up.
finaly! i was waiting for it!
I loved this! I love these types of videos! Are you planning to make a RMC explained video? Because that would be fantastic! Keep up the amazing work!
~ Sydni
I'm glad you enjoyed it. We do hope to make one about RMC eventually. Thank you. :)
We? Didn't know there was two of you lol.
Well, I, Harry, do a significant portion of the work for the channel, other people do contribute and help towards the production. Both Aron and Andrew, from the live streams, help me plan future videos and also proof read scripts. Andrew also collects research for videos, which saves me a lot of time. :)
gotta love that whoosh transition! I think this is the most high quality video I have seen from you to date! well done harry! even if you had to render it 7 times lol!
1 thing tho, its pronounced Bolee- shuu and mabe-ard sorry for being picky
To be truly honest, it doesn't seem like many outside of Switzerland are able to pronounce the companies name as Claude and Walter do. I understood going in that the pronunciation may not be 100% right. Thanks though. :)
Great Video!
This was just beautiful
Thank you :)
Quality video, as usual!
Thank you :)
Awesome video, Harry!
Thank you! :)
nice vid as usual mate. B&M never fails to make a brilliant coaster. and you've got to admit that nemesis is INCREDIBLE.
Thank you, you're very right :)
@@coasterbot Thanks you :)
B&M rules. Love the way they look and hold up over time.. and the howling rumble sounds they make.. Raptor and Gatekeeper are awesome.
Hello There, this is a great video, thank you for explaining the origins of B&M and it's projects, it's much appreciated. Cheers Peter :)
No problem, thanks for watching! :)
@@coasterbot Hello There, you're welcome, well deserved. Cheers Peter :-)
When B & Ms first coaster was at my home park! SFGAm is underrated
You can hear a B&M a mile off too. Love that distinctive roar they make.
Definitely! :)
