    Great little Q & A session for your channel viewers. DO NOT do the all day Infusion challenge unless you have private medical insurance. it will brake you. I set a challenge to myself about a decade ago, to do all the rides at Blackpool PB in alphabetical order. Didn't complete it because of large queues, rides closing unexpectedly and then the rain spoiled the day. Went straight back to hotel to get changed and then back out to Coral Island until chucking out time.

    Great video as always! I always enjoy hearing your opinions on theme parks and coasters.
    Whilst off season makes me sad, I am a huge fan of a Q&A, and a ranking video, so i always hope that creators like yourself will do several Q&As and ranking videos. I appreciate nit every creator likes doing these things, so no pressure! (Though I will always put in a cheeky punt for video on dark rides, as I love these).

    great Q&A. Agree with you about blackpool and nostalgia. would love to see you lap a ride all day at pleasure beach say Valhalla as do find infusion is a bone breaker 🤣

    Echo your sentiments about nostalgia..when i was younger i only really ever went to lightwatwr valley etc. But now, being older, i love solo travelling and 1st time i visited PB and alton etc it was unreal the experience. Its weird knowing you have been waiting ages for it

    I'm like you and not a fan of vertical lift hills - speed and Oakwoods vertical lift hill is soooo slow its actually borderline terrifying although for me once thats done its a better ride than saw. Highlight though having almost non stop walk on rides of Megafobia and being allowed to wait for the front row on a saturday. Tenby is nearby too which is lovely (no rides - nice fish and chips)

    Did you ever play games such as Rollercoaster Tycoon or theme park world? I dread to think how many hours of my life I spent building theme parks 😅😅 also, will you be doing a breakdown video of your America trip with rough costs and how you planned it? I'd love to do something similar in the near future. Keep up the great work 👍🙌🎢

    • @coaster_dad
      @coaster_dad  6 днів тому +1

      Hey Jake. I haven’t played any of the games. Don’t have a console and use a Mac for everything so some of the games aren’t an option. In terms of the US trip that’s simple, I let Scott from Your Experience Guide plan it all then I just sorted a flight and paid him 😂 to be honest I wouldn’t know where to start with such a mammoth trip! I’ve done some smaller European trips and the obvious Orlando trip where I hired a car and did all the parks. But this one has something daft like 14 parks about 6 or 7 hotels and a coach that takes us everywhere 🙈

    If you do all day infusion you definitely want to book yourself a luxury car ride straight to a wellness spa immediately after 😂😂😂 maybe for a week or two?? 😂

    All day Infusion... not sure we could inflict that on you.
    I did an all day on the Tornado at M&Ds as a charity challenge with my work back in the late 90s. It was horrific! I made it into the Falkirk Herald though, lol.

    If you do an all dayer at Blackpool, please let me know.
    I'll happily call down and assist with things like food/drink/any other help.
    And, I'd also sponsor you if you do it for charity.

    honestly dont get what these parks are thinking with overpriced terrible food if that (as it seems) just means the majority stop buying it esp. with parks only open until 4 of something silly. Doesn't need to be spectacular Mcdonalds seem to make their model pay and merlin are happy to sell you a Costa coffee.
