    They should take it up a notch and add a worker dressed as Bigfoot walking around in the forest below the bridge....😁

    The scariest rollercoaster I ever rode was when the safety bar didn't lock shut and before I could say anything we were away. I held on for dear life and fortunately there was no loops.
    Genuine terror for the photograph lol.

  • @sergioalvarez4549

    This looks super fun. Maybe it’s cause I’m from CA, but I’m shocked that this place is open. I know the south doesn’t have such strict rules like us. But to have so many people in those Gondolas and the fact that the rail has hand controls doesn’t seem sanitary and safe to me at the moment. On top of that the playgrounds and kids areas are completely free for use. Crazy how they just opened up like nothing over there. I didn’t see many people with masks either. I mean I know they have signs and 6 foot markers but I’m just surprised. I’m glad you’re still being safe and wearing a mask/sanitizing when necessary to do so! Thanks for the great content Jacob!

    • @carolynfoster1541
      @carolynfoster1541 4 роки тому +3

      I'm shocked. You are seeing the opening of a virus hot spot. I want everyone not wearing a mask to sign a release saying that they will pay 100% of their hospitalization costs WHEN they come down with COVID-19.Next we see these people, it's a sad day at Grandma's funeral after you sneeze your virus into her face. I won't watch Carpetbagger after this display of ignorance. I've been a nurse for 30 years and never have I seen this level of glib disregard for health warnings! I bet they have a full to capacity smoking area, right next to the fried pork rinds!

      I live in NM and while most places are still closed and masks are mandatory, we still got plenty of scofflaws over here along the NM/TX stateline. All we could do for now is just keep our own distances, mind the crowds, and keep watching these "boots on the ground" videos here.

    I have to tell you; The 1st time I saw you was in a live chat, and you were lying down and eating during the chat. I never watched you again. Then, you were with someone I like, Adam the Woo, in Anakeesta. I got to see your personality, and I liked you. Will & Dawn and Chris & Mindy told me how much they liked you, but I disagreed. I'm so glad I watched these 2 videos. You are VERY entertaining, and definitely a great guy👍 I should have trusted the opinions of Will, Dawn, Chris, and Mindy... You are excellent! 👍👍 Only problem is, I now have to watch your past videos, and there are A LOT!! 👍
    I guess I shouldn't have judged a book by the movie!!😅😂🤣👍
