Here’s what I think of this ride, is it as good as a B&M hyper, no, but is it a bad ride, no, I think people pick on it for not being as good as a B&M, but the drop really isn’t that good, but this thing pulls some amazing G’s in that final helex so I don’t think it’s a bad ride at all, but their are better rides rides here for sure
You're not giving this coaster it's due credit. This coaster first opened in 2001 by a company that no longer exists. At that time there were no b&m hypers in existence. Goliath was once the tallest, fastest, most intense coaster in the world for a short period of time until it was surpassed by another like it. You see what I mean? Goliath paved the way for future, better hypercoasters to come. I see it as a living icon that still operates to this day, thank god. You gotta respect it.
When I rode this, at the top when it sorta stops, the guy behind me said “Why’d it stop?” I said “It’s supposed to do that.” He said “Oka-“ then down the drop we go. (I had my eyes closed the entire time lol)
The first time I arrived at Six Flags Magic Mountain, we had parked in the lot behind the original Colossus' first turn, and Goliath's massive first hill. I actually saw a train just reach the top of the lift hill, and it looked like it plummeted almost vertically. I said, "Nope." Glad to say I regretted saying no.
From 2:09 - 2:17 you are being smashed into the car by massive g forces and its almost impossible to keep your hands up straight or even you body for that matter .. this is a great ride!
Goliath opened on my birthday, on February 11th, the difference is that it was opened in 2000 and I was born in 1995 ... my name is giovanna and his maker is Giovanola! hahaha! Coincidence?
@@hellacia8151 it opened in 2000, and was made by a manufacturer that is now out of business before the first b&m hyper was made, give it a break. it was one of the best coasters then
Mostly the same - Titan is 10 feet taller and has an additional helix (the part where you go in a circle). But yeah, they’re about the same thing. They’re actually by the same manufacturer, Giovanola.
Six Flags Magic Mountain, Can you please redo this as a B&M Hyper Coaster, instead of what the experience is now? Perhaps Make the layout a bit longer as well?
What if we are afraid of heights, but at the same time you want to get on it? Is it still fun? It's because I want to get on it but I'm on a yes and no situation 😂.
@@a_random_guitarist2189 it was not bad actually. It looks so terrifying by just looking at it, but it was so much fun that I actually got on it 3 times. The first drop looks scary when you're at the top, buts it's actually very fun. You should get on it as well there's nothing to regret.
This coaster may looks like a waste of potential, It may lacks airtime, The drop is too shallow to give any airtime in the back row, And the layout may looks like filler. But the smoothness and the final helix makes up for it, Not a bad ride, Still looks like a good ride.
The main difference is that Titan has a double helix before the middle brakes. Other then that it is the exact same. Titan might be a little higher too.
Great first drop, followed by an amazing turnaround and small bunny hill. Then…well, it brakes, the amazing speed goes away, the track layout loses the thrills, and it limps to the finish line. Whoever designed it should only get 1/2 a paycheck.
I don't know the exact date because the reason it broke was the chairlift broke on the ride and they had to get a new chain but the estimated date is around mid June.
This is because either a camera was strapped to the front seat or an operator was holding their phone or wearing a head camera in the front row and told not to scream or say anything, as it was likely filmed on a weekday because no people were in the park. It is a great POV because it shows potential new riders just how fast and intense the ride actually is.
The helix after that brake is SOO strong / intense, even with the brake i grayed out on it. I can’t imagine how intense it would be going like 25 mph faster.
I got that feeling when I rode my first roller coaster, GhostRider, and now I'm used to it. I'm not pressuring you or anything, but if you're an enthusiast like me, you get used to the feeling. If you want to ride a roller coaster that launches, and has only one drop, try Dodonpa. It looks insanely fun. I haven't ridden it yet, but I've seen footage of it, and its acceleration is insane.
Here’s what I think of this ride, is it as good as a B&M hyper, no, but is it a bad ride, no, I think people pick on it for not being as good as a B&M, but the drop really isn’t that good, but this thing pulls some amazing G’s in that final helex so I don’t think it’s a bad ride at all, but their are better rides rides here for sure
Absolutely agree. I haven’t ridden it, but I have ridden Titan at my home park Six Flags Over Texas which is basically the same thing.

RTNANDEZ96 There were B&M hypers actually. Raging Bull and Apollo’s Chariot were already open.
This is my fav roller coaster I rode it a second time at night it was awesome I will cherish Goliath forever
I like how the frequency of the camera matches the speed so the mountings of the rails seem to move forward
Hey yea you’re right
That is cool.
this ride is not over rated it is and amazing roller coaster ive been on it 4 times
The Nerf Ninjas I agree
I agree too
It kind of is, not really forceful, plus the mcbr is awful
No not really it has a really shallow drop and no airtime and the mid course brakes ruin it all
Thomas McCleod For real bruh😂😂😂 talkin about 4 times or whatever he said😂 try like 50😂
Ahhh... A classic. For a roller coaster so fast, it's suprisingly smooth. 9/10.
Fast rides usually are pretty smooth
@@blitzn00dle50 Yup.
Should've gotten a B&M...
What’s a B&M
THE GOAT imma just assume ur joking.....
John Griswold technically it is but it isnt
@@irecluse7169 bru not everyone is a coaster nerd like you
@@odsclan8288 i aint a coaster nerd lol. I just legitimately thought he was joking
I rode this when I was 7 and it is my favorite coaster to this day.
+Vexx Nebula the higher limit of this ride
I have not been on it, and im 12
Really? I thought it was kinda bland but opinions.
When I rode this, at the top when it sorta stops, the guy behind me said “Why’d it stop?” I said “It’s supposed to do that.” He said “Oka-“ then down the drop we go. (I had my eyes closed the entire time lol)
lol
It's crazy watching this when no one is screaming and yelling out cuss words 😂
the lift hill sound changed overtime
I’m going to six flags this week on July 15th. Cant wait to ride this but very nervous.
This was the roller coaster Selena Gomez and James Corden went on during carpool karaoke!
man! one of my favorites carpool karaoke XD
Didn't someone from Zoey 101 ride this too?
I love this ride really recommend if you are a roller coster fan
Finally I rode this ride today, I’ve always been scared of it but it’s so much fun
The first time I arrived at Six Flags Magic Mountain, we had parked in the lot behind the original Colossus' first turn, and Goliath's massive first hill. I actually saw a train just reach the top of the lift hill, and it looked like it plummeted almost vertically. I said, "Nope." Glad to say I regretted saying no.
One of my favorites, even on my phone, that first hill made my stomach drop
If I ever ride this, I’m taking my priest so he can give me my last rites
This is def one of my fav rides
Sounds amazing without screaming women and girls.
From 2:09 - 2:17 you are being smashed into the car by massive g forces and its almost impossible to keep your hands up straight or even you body for that matter .. this is a great ride!
I still remember how heavy I felt during that part of the ride.
I Love Goliath
This ride reopened today cannot wait to ride it woooo!!
when you drop down it feels like your on the polar express
Goliath opened on my birthday, on February 11th, the difference is that it was opened in 2000 and I was born in 1995 ...
my name is giovanna and his maker is Giovanola! hahaha!
Coincidence?
that means you are worthy of the goliath
Awesome ride, I've been on this 12 times
One the rides I use be an operator at. All Hail the Almighty Goliath!!
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
1 minute in and we aren't even at the top!!
I'm not even riding this roller costaer and I'm already anxious...
I've been on this 6 times best ride in the park
Wow. It really doesn't seem that bad on video. But this ride is terrifying in the front seat
I Just Got Of This Ride, & LOVE Every Second Of This The Bottom Line: The One In GA GOT NOTHING On THIS VERSION HERE (REAL TALK)
boi, the one in georgia is so much better, air time, and fun... this lacks all of that >-
the one in georgia is so much better
The one in Texas is still better
Sorry, but this is the 2nd worst Goliath out there
Richard Morrison no you are wrong I'm sorry but you're wrong
This ride is so fun, i always gray out on the helix after the brake run though
Sometimes I like to think I’m an enthusiast, but this ride is in my top 5
Well, what other parks have you been to? If you haven't been to many others, it would be reasonable.
There's nothing wrong with being an enthusiast and liking this coaster. It's a ton of fun and gets unnecessary hate.
I have this at home. It’s called Titan.
At least you get a extra helix
Ok I have never been on this ride and I saw that some people say the drop is not strong?
Not Trippie Redd
It’s not, but it is really long. The drop isn’t that steep, which makes it last even longer. I really like the drop!
Goliath
Maverick
to be honest, the drop feeling isn't really strong with this one
Omg, i know right. I stopped screaming after like three seconds and just sat there until the next drop
It's a crap coaster.
It's just kind of boring. And this is a hyper coaster, it should have some good forces
@@hellacia8151 it opened in 2000, and was made by a manufacturer that is now out of business before the first b&m hyper was made, give it a break. it was one of the best coasters then
@@saviourscorpius The first B&M Hyper was made a year before in 1999
Thanks for this excellent MOUNTED-cam POV! None of that tourettesy hand held shakey shakey sheeyat lol!
People bash that airtime hill all the time but I think it's great! Always gives good floater.
Ok the drop you feel as if your spirit leaves your body
i know people hate this thing but i’m not gonna lie i love it
Still the best ride at the park!
i love this ride
is this the same as the titan in arlington texas?
Mostly the same - Titan is 10 feet taller and has an additional helix (the part where you go in a circle). But yeah, they’re about the same thing. They’re actually by the same manufacturer, Giovanola.
It may not be the best or most forceful ride at magic mountain (Barely even makes my top 10 at MM actually) but it’s always so much fun to ride
In Texas at Six Flags Over Texas this is called the Titan. I didn't get to ride it when I went because the cart got stuck but it looks amazing :)
Never rode Titan
I BEEN WAITING FOR THIS!!!!!!!!
What does it feel like
When i went down the drop on Goliath it was almost like going over a float hill but for the entire track
I love this ride. But the last three times I went they closed it due to the car getting stuck. When will Goliath reopen?
It already opened
Kenzie Backlin OWN EDCP
+X The Smasher yea?
I went this summer and was pissed that it was closed. It was like when I went to Busch Gardens Florida and Cheetah Hunt was closed.
Skittle Jesus shame
What are these black spot's?
lodi senior Oil.
My friend and I are going and we always pass out at the top!
Why is there legit no screaming
Because no one was riding when this was filmed.
Looks fun! Not sure why people care about "airtime" so much
It's one of the key features on a hypercoaster, if if doesn't have it then it gets rated lower
Whos watching this years later
This ride is awesome
Six Flags Magic Mountain, Can you please redo this as a B&M Hyper Coaster, instead of what the experience is now? Perhaps Make the layout a bit longer as well?
again this is not a B&M HYPER COASTER BRO, and the manufacturer, ginovaola, is not around anymore
@@WhiteDeath_46 I know that. They can just change it to a B&M Hyper.
This is my favorite roller coaster ride
Omg on the steep turn I always fainted
Last time I went here i rode it 4 times in a row! I got off and ran back around with no wait until my head started hurting bad on the ride lol
Lol I'm liking every vid this guy posts that I rode lol!
This is the official Six Flags Magic Mountain channel lel
For anyone who’s scared of going on this ride trust me it’s amazing, after the big drop your all good and it’s super fun!
What if we are afraid of heights, but at the same time you want to get on it? Is it still fun? It's because I want to get on it but I'm on a yes and no situation 😂.
@@jacecoy7179 you only live once go for it and if you don’t like it that’s okay there are plenty of other rollercoasters to ride on
@@celesteidentityv5645 thanks. I will go on it this August. I will try getting on it without doubt. Thanks
@@jacecoy7179 how was it imma go in November and it's one of my favorite coasters
@@a_random_guitarist2189 it was not bad actually. It looks so terrifying by just looking at it, but it was so much fun that I actually got on it 3 times. The first drop looks scary when you're at the top, buts it's actually very fun. You should get on it as well there's nothing to regret.
I might go to six flags on June 12 I have never been there before ! I'm sooooooo excited!
priscilla hernandez Did you have fun???
It’s very fun
Id wait till winter, dont you know how BURNING HOT it is right now?
I have been on this ride it is super fun!!!! Scary but fun.
This coaster may looks like a waste of potential, It may lacks airtime, The drop is too shallow to give any airtime in the back row, And the layout may looks like filler. But the smoothness and the final helix makes up for it, Not a bad ride, Still looks like a good ride.
My favorite ride in the park 😍❤️
Same
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Love these videos!!
Wow great b&m hyper!
Wait..
SpookyCam this is not a b&m hyper it’s a Giovanola mega coaster
Camdamcool haha
jays4ktv you didn't catch the sarcasm
This is a must do at Magic Mountain, it’s pretty fun
This is an amazing rollercoaster one of the best at six flags magic mountain
does the lap bars fit to your waist, or stop moving at a certain point?
They fit at your waist but are loose a little
Kenzie Backlin thanks for telling me.
tommarow is gonna be my first time it look dope
i love goliath its my favorite ride at six flags but you should go on the 2x
X2
I
Same
I went on this in the back and I 😵.
Ness Okay nice choice 👌🏻
If I go on this ride i wod cry
That looks more like the titan
Maria Caraballo yesss it do same color and everything
Maria Caraballo They're made by the same manufacturer(Giovanola.....now out of business)
The SlimyUnicorn i felt the say way there the exact same
The main difference is that Titan has a double helix before the middle brakes. Other then that it is the exact same. Titan might be a little higher too.
It is titan but it's called goliath
One day I’m gonna go on it it looks so fun
Great first drop, followed by an amazing turnaround and small bunny hill. Then…well, it brakes, the amazing speed goes away, the track layout loses the thrills, and it limps to the finish line. Whoever designed it should only get 1/2 a paycheck.
Was this footage taken when colossus was still colossus
Yep, it was taken when Colossus was still a classic wooden ride.
I hate to say this, but. I was the last rider on collosus, and i said THIS IS NOT FUN! i was 7,
Looks like a B&M, but looks great!
its a giovanola
i think u know
2:10-2:16 I sometimes get tunnel vision from the G's
I actually blacked out on that part once
David Nelson when will it re open?
I don't know the exact date because the reason it broke was the chairlift broke on the ride and they had to get a new chain but the estimated date is around mid June.
+David Nelson well it opened around mid July
Monday. The day I return to my favorite place on Earth.
IVE ALWAYS WANTED TO GO HERE!
Cool
Alex Ramos Good luck getting in it's only open on weekends
If only it could be this quiet when you actually ride it, but no, there's always some chick screaming her lungs out😂
Ya_Boy _Chris OMG TRUE DAT 😂😂

Does it flip???
you upside down??
+Natalie Rodriguez No.
+Tbone1725 ohh OK thanks
Natalie Rodriguez Ugh the GP, hyper coasters don't go upside down
Your hyper
This is the roller coaster that is used as the VR video on LG G5
I want to go to six flags magic mountain and ride Goliath some day my home park is six flags st Louis and there most awesome ride is Mr. Freeze!
Good ride but no airtime
It's not an airtime focused ride.
2:15 is where the 4.9 gs are
1:51 wasted speed
The helix after that brake is SOO strong / intense, even with the brake i grayed out on it. I can’t imagine how intense it would be going like 25 mph faster.
Back when I went on this for the first time, I was ten and I nearly shat myself XD
I went on this for the first time today. It was awesome after the drop parts, since I don't like drops 😄
+AnimalLover02 How can you not like the drops? That's where the real fun is.
+Jeremy Barker hehe yeah idk but I don't like the feeling you get in your stomach when you drop
I got that feeling when I rode my first roller coaster, GhostRider, and now I'm used to it. I'm not pressuring you or anything, but if you're an enthusiast like me, you get used to the feeling. If you want to ride a roller coaster that launches, and has only one drop, try Dodonpa. It looks insanely fun. I haven't ridden it yet, but I've seen footage of it, and its acceleration is insane.
+Jeremy Barker ok I'll check it out. Yeah I just have to get used to it. Thanks!
... thats in japan... sorry...
You guys are cool and so brave
This looks like a Bolliger and Mabillard track.
Let's get rid of the mid-course and turn after it and put in a straight section with a drop-off like GhostRider, and let's do that on Titan too
That track looks a bit rusty.
Ike the Gnome it's just the orange scheme and the paint being chipped by the friction of the carts
2Fungis *train :)
its cleaner now
"Goliath looks too intense for me"
I've been on it 154 I'm a weirdo I count how meany times I go on rides but that is noisey as hell
You should have put looping and corsksrew and a zero g roll
This is the one ride I can’t go on when I’m there I’m to scared
1:23
It's a close call but I like Titan at Six Flags Over Texas more.
