  • A tour of the Sweetest Place on Earth. I did catch a mistake: the Storm Runner coaster is launched hydraulically, not magnetically.
    If you'd like to read more about the park, a full trip report can be found here: www.karenandjay.com/trips/trip...

    I grew up in Maryland but most of my dad's side of the family was in the St. Clair, Allentown area. Growing up I pretty much went to Hershey Park every year on the way to Nana's house. Now she's gone, my dad is gone, I left the country in 2003 for a homestay program not considering that I might not come back. I really enjoyed seeing the video of Hershey Park, I've ridden The Comet more times than I can count, but it makes me sad to think I may never get the chance to go there again.

    My last time at Hershey Park was on Sunday April 29th, 2001 for Shiply Play Day. I was however at Zoo America in the early 2010's as a chaperone on my youngest son's field trip. So I did get to look over and see the Falcon ride from across the street. Now I heard the Falcon is gone and replaced with three new rides.

  • @JackNixon619
    @JackNixon619 5 років тому

    Parents use to bring my brother & I lots of times to Hershey.. Favorite rides were the comet & The Tobaggan.. The tobaggan most prolly don't even remember, been a long time.. Funniest part was everything time we went we always got rained on.. They'd close the park, we do lunch & change clothes.. Soon as they opened back up, we were back at it.. Such Great Memories will never be forgotten!!!

    Thank you for a virtual tour of Hersheypark. This is my home park, as has a great collection of rides. My top 3 is Skyrush, Great Bear and Storm Runner. After you passed Lightning Racer, the water structure was actually East Coast Wateworks. Shoreline Sprayground is further back in the Boardwalk.

    I've just discovered your walk-through videos and am really enjoying them. One note on your statement about PA once having had the most amusement parks of any state. While it may not have as many as it once did, it does have the highest concentration of Golden Age parks that are still operating with nine parks that opened in the 1920's or earlier, six of which opened before 1900. It's sort of a Mecca for lovers of classic traditional amusement parks.

    There is so many amusement parks I've always wanted to go to but I can't because I live in Colorado which the only park we have is Elitch Gardens which is quite small according to most amusement parks. All the coasters are copies of other rides (boomerang, Vekoma slc, etc) There is only one coaster in Elitch Gardens that is sort of iconic which is Mr. Twister, but that was moved to knoebels and renamed twister, and they made twister II at elitches. So I would love to go to other amusement parks that are more famous

    Hey Jay I have a few questions. First, I know you record your videos with the IPhone SE, but how do you actually edit the videos? Also could you do one of these for Dorney Park, or some other six flags/cedar fair parks? Thank you!

      The videos are edited in Final Cut Pro X. Dorney is on my list, along with many other parks.

      Storm Runner nearly gave me a concussion, and I haven't ridden Fahrenheit. So currently, neither. I think my favorite ride in the park is Lightning Racer, followed by the Comet.

      wait how did storm runner almost give you a concussion?

      When I rode it, the ride shook violently in several of the element and my head was getting whacked against the headrest.

    As of summer 2020 the park entrance (00:10-02:42) is completely different. I miss this old entrance. It had more charm. I do like the new Candymonium coaster though.
