As someone who got a degree in Electronic Engineering and doing a masters. This was super interesting seeing how everything works and how things are triggered.
Thanks for watching!
Ahhh 10 minutes in and they mentioned the restaurant...loving this and the history and how rides intertwined..fascinating
It was such a great place to eat!
@@ThemeParkWorldwide music is slava snow show you filmed goldmine must have done a pov

@@ThemeParkWorldwide white tower needs a review
This is a very interesting vlog to say the least.
I really love wallace & gromit as well.
Such funny characters.
Thanks for the great vlog Shawn & Charlotte.

Meant to be 3 bolts; 1 bolt has sheered clean off and the other one is missing completely 😂 now down to the final one holding that brace down. I loved watching this! Brilliant behind the scenes footage. And how the ride is so handmade / evolved over time leaving parts of the old history in like that railing by the old restaurant I never knew about or experienced sadly.
I don’t know what specific bolt you’re looking at. Christ as if you noticed a bolt amongst all that
Thanks for watching!
I really would love it if Alton towers and any Merlin park did things like this
What about a track walkthrough of The Smiler
Omg it would be soooo good
It would be great to see!
Curse at Alton manor Walkthrough
They do it of Saw sometimes
I’ve got some great memories of the restaurant as a child. Always felt like a lovely relaxing area to sit and watch the rides go by while having a bite to eat
I restore and recreate medieval armour for a living. I clicked on this because just like Wallace... I LOVE RIVETS! 😂🤣🙈⚒️🇬🇧
Best wishes from a French forest. I like your energy. 🏆
A great insight! My earliest theme park memory is riding The Goldmine as a child, and entering into this cafe/River Caves wonderland scene from above. I was absolutely amazed. It was many years before I knew what the ride was actually called as I was only very young and we didn’t visit much.
It was such a great area!
absolutely loved this ride when I went to pleasure beach one of the best dark rides i have been on in the UK
Nice vid man
Fascinating. I still miss the old Gold Mine
It was such a fantastic classic attraction
My favourite uk dark ride! Going to Blackpool in July and I’m very excited to go on this again.
It’s a great ride
I love it
Use to be the Old gold mine ride for years. Growing up in Blackpool in the 70's I would often spend my weekends in the funhouse Happy memories
Great video. I've never been on Wallace and Gromit but I have been on Gold Mine many times during childhood holidays in Blackpool and I remember that cafe very well. I remember it was themed with trees inside. You could look over the banister onto the River Caves lagoon and watch the Gold Mine rattle overhead. Sad to see the cafe isn't there anymore. Ask them to bring it back lol 😊
Wow!that was totally awesome..thank you sharing..love it ❤
Thanks for watching!
Thank you so much guys, brilliant video that takes you behind the scenes on these rides. Alton Towers should do something similar, would love to do "Walk Oblivion". Another one I could think of is a ghost walk around the towers, or even stay the night. Would love to do either of them and wouldn't be the only one.
Thank you!
this is the reason why i want to go to blackpool pleasure beach! wallace and gromit ride. love it! looks so good.
Definitely remember sitting in the restaurant looking out at both the rides. I'm 51 and we made annual pilgrimage every Oct for the illuminations...happy days!
It was great!
Have fond memories of when it was the Goldmine and rode it many times. Living in Blackpool in the 1980s I loved the old school Pleasure Beach attractions some no longer here especially a rainy day at the funhouse in grey stockingfeet.
It's criminal that this changed from the goldmine to an IP based ride, the Goldmine was so original.
would love to go behind the scenes of my favourite all time ride, the ghost train and possibly bump into Cloggy x
I've just signed up to the fan club after watching the last 2 vlogs...tried to book for the Big Dipper tour but just sold out unfortunately! 👍
We love the new Pleasure Beach fan club already!
Wow, definitely need to get down to Blackpool to check this out because it would most certainly be interesting to see the behind the scenes of the ride. Another great video, you two!
This was a one time event for pleasure beach fan club members as far as I know
@@Themepark_Mania I mean, they can most certainly do walk throughs for a couple of the other dark rides at the park, like Alice in Wonderland & The Ghost Train. And they can easily do this again so it shouldn’t be a problem, thanks for sharing your thoughts though.
Been looking forward to this vlog love Wallace and Gromit fantastic vlog 😀😀😀
28:08 That was a fun day, getting to walk through the Wallace and Gromit dark ride with the ride turned off and work lights turned on. At Epcot, they used to have behind the scenes tours of Spaceship Earth. Hope Disney starts up that tour again.
I know its basically the goldmine layout, but I love Wallace and gromit, I remember that restaurant, and because their was so much mist, that the salt in the salt cellars would be damp and it wouldn't come out, so that was the only problem with river caves near a restaurant
Awh that's such a cool Vlog guys. I remember the restaurant and the dining area/railings next to the river caves, as a kid, and also the Gold Mine ride from above, was one of my faves as it was so long and a little eerie and seemed to go down forever and then worked its way back up... We took the little ones last year and Wallace& Gromit is their favourite ride. It still smells the same in there too!! Planning some European trips this year so your upcoming plans will come in handy, cheers guys!
Hi theme park worldwide I love watching your videos they are so cool!
Thank you
Go on this every year the ride is amazing, such detail and the scenes are brilliant
I never even knew this ride existed! But the last time i went to Blackpool Pleasure Beach was in 1999, so that may explain why! I'd like to go back cos i only got to go on about half the rides at the time. Of course it wont be the same without the Wild Mouse...
I worked this ride last year as an op and as a thoosie walking round it every morning was awesome truly amazing how big the ride is with so much detail remember walking it for the first time as just geeking out!
That’s awesome!
I like the ride Wallace and gromit nice to see it behind the scenes!
Really interesting vlog!! Loved seeing the scenes inside, also how the track works was pretty interesting. Keep up the good work. Maybe a live Q + A before your trip next week 🙏
This was great. I love Wallace & Gromit, can't wait to try this dark ride next week ! xx
Thanks Sharon!
0:01 I'm A Huge Wallace And Gromit Fan. Thanks Mate. X
I remember the gold mine ride, going through the cafe and waving to mum as we pass through
Brilliant thanks. I remember riding it many times when I was a kid. Why can't you see the cafe anymore? it all added to the experience
It was all closed off unfortunately
I’m pretty sure the ‘chicken restaurant’ was called ‘The Cotton Club’? Yeah, I’m old enough to remember going in there for some southern fried chicken and watching the boats going round below on the river caves and the ore cars of the goldmine trundling through with happy guests. Great interaction reminiscent of the restaurants on the Pirates of the Caribbean rides at Disney parks.
It was a great experience!
My son love this ride he would go on this all day
A walk down memory lane. I had forgotten about the restaurant. I am old though lol. I have pictures of me as a teenager sat on the bench with the old miner. Thanks for this.
It was such a great space!
Would love to do this! Amazing to see original victorian iron balcony from the magnolia cafe. Theres afew pov videos with the view of 'the blue lagoon' section where you can see into to the magnolia. Happy memories as a kid of eating in the restraunt waving to all the riders as they passed through. I miss it so much.
It was such a great area!
I remember sitting in the café as a kid.
I remember the Gold Mine, seem to remember it passed a cafe whilst going around
It was great!
Going to finally go to Pleasure Beach again after so many years, hopefully i will finally go past the were-rabbit and not avoid his face this time.
These ride tours look brilliant but are not things i would be able to do since i rely on using a wheelchair so it's great that you can share it with us on here!
Would love a behind the scenes look at 13 at Alton Towers
I must take this tour!
I can't believe this is 10 years old!! I remember the goldmine it was a long ride went through a cafe if I remember rightly (many many years ago lol) great vlog
It was such a classic!
i got a ride with the lights on the other day after it just reopened was so interesting to see on ride with the lights on
best dark ride in england?
I would say Valhalla, but it’s still a very good ride!
It’s a great ride!
This ride is one of my core memories I went on it when I was very little and the rabbit horrified me and I went on it for the first time in years today and it was crazy and way less scary than I thought the guy with the gun scared me more tbh
What a fantastic experience, thanks for sharing it. It’s always fascinated me how they design these type of rides. And it’s great to see some remnants of the restaurant, I remember you used to enter it through an ice cream parlour that is on the left side of the ghost train. Used to love watching the boats and gold mine go past. 😊
It was such a beautiful place to sit!
Wow so expensive back in the day but a nice addition to the park and a great walk around your still can belive that Harrison Ford carbonated statue in ride still and such a big show building
That was amazing just to see behind the scenes fantastic,I remember gold mines too another good ride.❤❤
Thanks for watching!
Great scenes I remember sat in the magnolia cafe seeing the gold mine cars and river cave boats great memories 🎉
Great memories!
Thanks for this, I am of a certain age where I remember the river caves, gold mine and the cafe! Brilliant walk through!
Thanks for watching!
This is really
fascinating and very interesting!
That was amazing I would love to have been there. Yes I remember the gold mine and the cafe. I remember the song....oh my darling oh my darling.
It was such a great tour!
Brilliant video as always
Hello shawn and Charlotte 😊
Hi Shawn and Charlotte
memories, remember the goldmine fondly, didn’t the river caves also run underneath the mine by the cafe? , there was something about the smell, feel and lighting of that ride……. now been to pleasure beach for years, coming up for my 50th in june for and overnighter cant wait , was there a goldmine at southport as well?
Brilliant guys thank you so much
17:33 Looks abit like your mom 😊😂 love your mom and dad and their involvement on the channel ❤
They are great!
This is actually my favourite dark ride for the UK for its simple charm and effectiveness. It does so much with so little. I do expect Valhalla to change that soon though..
It’s such a great ride!
always good to get behind this attraction!
It’s such a great dark ride
This looks amazing to do, little bit jealous great vlog
Was always a highlight of both gold mine and River caves seeing my gran sitting in the cafe having a coffee whilst I was on the ride another og pleasure beach ride that I've just randomly had a memory of and I'm sure you'll remember Shawn is Magic Mountain so many happy memories from pleasure beach as a child im all in the name progress just wish either me or you had filmed more at that time you've got the right idea now film everything lol
Thanks for sharing your memories!
Brilliant vlog
Technically you can't take The Ultimate selfie anymore, RIP Ultimate

@@ThemeParkWorldwide you’re welcome
It might just be my bad luck but it breaks down all the time and need to get walked through the ride so have had a cplouple of behind the scenes tours myself. :D
That’s awesome!
This video was so interesting and i bet it was a great experience
It was absolutely brilliant
Classic Shawn ..in theme park heaven .. hi shaz too 👍
We loved the tour!
❤️ 👍 love the channel
Awesome video
Oh used to be a Goldmine ride? Interesting... because you know that ride you like, Adventureville, when you come here to Southend Adventure Island, that also used to be a Goldmine type ride, though a fairly short one.
Hey Sean hope to see you again at Flamingo land
We’ll be back soon!
Do you get to go inside any other rides? This was cool!
Just this and Derby Racer for now, however we’ll be back at the next event in summer!
Very interesting content, hopefully more similar 'behind the scenes ' to come ( authorisation permitting )
Thank you!
Hello my friend I used to watch Wallace and grommet
What an amazing experience, was very interesting to see behind the scenes of this ride. So many props and things you wouldnt normally see whilst on the ride
We loved it!
Amazing Video Shawn and Charlotte I really enjoyed watching it. How does this works when you walked Wallace and Gromit’s Thrill O Matic? Because I would like to try it out myself
It was part of the first Pleasure Beach Fan Club event!
Please do a river caves. That would be brilliant the rides so old
It would be great to see behind the scenes!
Is it only one day to look inside and behind the scenes of Wallace of gromit ride at Blackpool. And did they gave you a certificate.
So is the actual track layout unchanged from the Gold Mine days ? Fascinating to see .
It is indeed!
Shame they couldn't keep the restaurant bit. I used to love being able to see the tides from there as a kid.
It was great!
Hey Sean have you been to Lagoon park it has a rollercoaster called cannibal that eats all other rollercoasters!
I’d like to visit at some point!
Wasn’t it Han Solo who was frozen in Carbonite
Do you think it they will do river caves
It would be fantastic if so!
