The BEST Wooden Coaster in the British Isles - Cú Chulainn - Emerald Park - POV - 4k 60fps

We think Cú Chulainn might just be the very BEST wooden coaster in the British Isles. Located at Emerald Park in Ireland this gravity group wooden rollercoaster packs a punch. Have you ridden Cu Chulainn yet, what did you think? Recorded in 4k UHD 60 frames per second using a Go Pro Hero 12 Black and chest mount with authorization from park security. #emeraldpark #cuchulainn #rollercoaster #themepark #gravitygroup #coaster #ride# #amusementparkride #woodie #woodencoaster

The BEST Wooden Coaster in... Ireland!

[@coasterfest]

The ONLY wooden coaster operating in Ireland. ;)

[@schpleeb]

I rode this for the first time recently. On the back row it’s buck wild

[@coasterfest]

It’s really very good, especially when it’s warmed up a little. Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching and commenting.

What’s the park’s on ride filming rules?

[@coasterfest]

On ride filming is permitted with chest mounted go pros / action cams, subject to the final decision lying with the ride ops team, so be prepared to remove your equipment if asked. In my experience though, if you got a genuine go pro, and genuine chesty harness, you’ll be fine.

British Isles???? you calling dubliners west brits????

[@coasterfest]

Noooo I would never dare!!! There’s not a lot of other coasters to make comparisons with in Ireland though. So as Ireland is, geographically, part of the British isles, that was the best I could come up with :)
It’s a compliment, we have some good woodies over here in Great Britain. :)

@@coasterfest mmmm couldve said the ermerald isle id get it if it was in the north of ireland . no hard feeelings man :)

[@coasterfest]

@@GlenIEBOI44 But saying that it’s the best woodie in the Emerald Isle is like saying the TT is the best bike race in the Isle of Man, it’s the only race of note. Or maybe it’s like saying Ryanair is the best budget airline in Ireland. We all know it’s true, but it means nothing, so we say they’re the best budget airline in Europe. :)
Honestly I meant nothing by it, other than to boost it as a ride by giving it a good point of comparison, and pitting it against Wicker Man, Megaphobia, or Grand National.
(In all honesty, the video is underperforming compared to other P.O.Vs anyway, so I’m thinking of changing the title back to the simple descriptive title format I used for other P.O.Vs. Will give it a few days. :) )

@@coasterfest nah mate dont say ryanair is good . flying on ryanair is like standing near a primed grenade cutting your chances at life by half. abd yeah shortening the thumbnail to something like. Cuchuliann the County Meath Monster P.O.V . probs not that since its like a SUN article heather

@@GlenIEBOI44 Ryanair has taken me on hundreds of flights to lots and lots of countries. I would never be able to afford to travel to the places I have, and see the countries I’ve seen, without Ryanair.
They’re not ‘good’ as such, but they are what they are, a reliable, cheap, airline. And as far as cheap airlines go, they absolutely are the best. I’ve flown absolutely loads of flights for less than I’d pay for a taxi to my local city, and only 3 times has a flight been late, always by less than 2 hours. I’ve also flown other cheap airlines, like wiz, Easy Jet etc, the only one that ‘was’ better, was Norwegian, but they went bust.
Ryanair’s safety record is one of the best in the world, regardless of silly online memes. (I have had some firm landings, but that’s the 737-800 in general.) They’re cheap, they’re reliable, and they fly to almost anywhere in Europe. What’s not to love?

The island of Ireland is part of the British Isles geographically, it's nothing political or controversial.

[@coasterfest]

There are so many people on these islands that don’t know the difference between the British Isles, Great Britain, and the UK, that it’s embarrassing. And to think we mock our friends over the Atlantic for their silly stereotype of having no geography knowledge. How can we judge if we don’t even know the names for the places we live? 🙈😂
For anybody that isn’t aware.
The U.K is the political union between England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. The U.K is a sovereign country, however each of the nations within are also countries in their own right.
Great Britain is the largest of the British Isles, encompassing England, Scotland and Wales. A common mistake is to include Northern Ireland. Northern Ireland is NOT located in Great Britain. (Hence why many people believe the Olympic team should be rebranded to Team UK!)
The British Isles refers to all of the islands that make up this part of Europe. So Great Britain, Ireland, The Shetland Isles, Isle of Man, etc.

[@mesaosi]

Given the Republic of Ireland does not recognise the term "British Isles" it very much is both political and controversial.

[@coasterfest]

It’s not intended to be controversial or political. Ireland has ONE wooden coaster, (operating) so absolutely nothing to compare it to. Most of the world recognise these islands as The British Isles, as do we. It’s a geographical term, nothing more, nothing less. So if I’m going to compare it to the rest of the islands, that’s the term I need to use.
To be honest, I didn’t for one minute imagine that Ireland wouldn’t ‘recognise’ the term. After all, it was a term given to the islands by ancient greek’s, and not one made up by the British to imply British ownership.
Anyway, I don’t think ‘Best wooden coaster on THESE ISLANDS’ works as well… 😁
