- On the final day of the European tour, we went to the tiny seaside park near Stockholm called Grona Lund, where I took on the ghost of the world's worst coaster and lived to tell about it.

Hey everyone, yes I am aware of the Six Flags and Cedar Fair merger. Expect a video on that mid-day tomorrow.
This is crazy
Noice
I just came to see if anyone had commented on this, and it turns out it was you!
Such a bombshell!
It’s the CW of the amusement industry.
That funhouse was the best funhouse I've ever been through! It was a blast meeting you and hanging out in Europe with you! What an amazing trip!
I’ve really loved this Europe series of yours. Grona Lund’s definitely a quirky place, glad you had a great time there. A massive shame about Jetline; I rode it about 3 weeks before that accident.
Great following this series and reminiscing all the fun. It was great meeting you and riding insane far too much 😂
You and August's face on Insane gave me zero confidence in that ride
@@AirtimeThrills understandable. We look pretty shook but didn't realize it until watching your video 😂
This is my favorite series you have done
I wonder how drunk intamin was when designing the Zac spin
(Opens a bottle of alcohol) (Fills Glass) Welcome everyone to the Intamin Amusement Rides design meeting. Today, we’re making a brand new model for our company. Ok, you see that X coaster over in California? Yeah, let’s make our own version of that! But we need to make it original. Let’s see, what are we known for? (sips some whiskey) Unreliability, of course. Give whatever comes of this a whole bunch of problems. Bad capacity, obviously. Let’s cut the trains in Quarters. Now, that still looks too similar. So (sips some more whiskey) let’s have the riders rotate around their, um, backpacks. Yeah, that’s different. Why control the spin? We can’t afford to build the extra rails! And also, do we even need to have a 3D layout? (takes another sip). Make it completely vertical and put a mid course brake run on it. Oh, and here’s the best part! (drinks an entire bottle) We’ll put a random piece of straight track at the top. It worked well on that Superman one. And just enter the vertical brake run upside down! That’s be thrilling. And can we just copy and paste those over the shoulder restraints onto this thing as well? Yeah, that be good. (opens a can of beer) and to top it all off, put one of these in the same park as, um, X that was it! Ok, see you guys tomorrow, we’re designing the restraints for that new chocolate hyper coaster!
monster looks pretty fun and interesting for a B&M invert
You need to talk about the Cedar Fair and Six Flags merge next. Please
tomorrow
I wish it didn’t happen but it’s a good move for corporate
@@huntzzioare you sure??? They both have massive amounts of debt from past bad decisions in a high interest rate environment for the long term foreseeable future, and all of their parks already have monopolies in their present markets except in the Bay area and la. This is only good for the typical guest and family if for starters they dramatically drop their parking prices instead of using their monopoly power in their markets to rip people off for dozens of dollars before you even enter the parks. I just went to Deutschland and the Netherlands and visited toverland Europa Park Phantasialand and Heide Park, and those 4 parks charge between 7-10 euros to park. Europa Park and Phantasialand are easily better than all but a couple of six flags and cedar fair parks. Admission price to Europa Park is 60 something euros, and admission price to Phantasialand is 50 something euros. A one day ticket to kings island near me is more than that, not including the insane parking cost if you don't have a pass. So unless this merger leads to drastically lower admission and parking prices, it will be bad for the average middle class American individual and family, and ultimately bad for the combined company, and will not help them be any more competitive with the year round warm weather park chains like universal and sea world, which are presently doing better financially than the two chains that are presumably announcing a merger soon.
I can't believe the Cedar Fair/Six Flags Merger is actually happening
same
When rivals meet
I wonder how much the Six Flags parks will benefit from the Cedar Fair culture
I've got many flips on Insane, and even waiting for a minute hanging upside down, waiting to be turned upright by the ride ops. (Extreme versus normal mode) One of the most intense ride I've ever done. Gouderix is worse though. Icarus, Monster, the two droptowers and the funhouse are just awesome. Shame that Jetline and Twister were down, Ive missed them too. Grona Lund is just a awesome park, not to be missed when you're in Stockholm
Don’t be sad because it’s gone, be happy because it happened.
When I saw the translation for insane I started crying from laughter
What?? Run away as far as whatever isn't a translation of Insane! "Sinnessjuk" is literally the direct translation. I don't know what this guy smoked when he "figured that out."
No sleep, no “regerts”. Awesome. Great series Chris.
Regerts...haha...nice Miller's reference. Love that movie. Super underrated.
Was used in a snickers ad too I think
Awesome video! I also really like your style of editing.
I rode Nyckelpigan, Blå tåget, Kärlekstunneln (Tunnel of Love) and Lustiga Huset as a kid over 40 years ago. They look exactly the same.
Jag med. 😃
This Cedar fair and Six flags news is crazy. I definitely know it being apart of a big news event for looking back in 2023 in a future Airtime thrills vid.
Makes me miss Lagoon's fun house.
Loved getting to see you visit parks across the pond. I would've loved to see you visit the Germany parks or even the Walibis but this trip still looked incredible! hope you're able to do something similar next year
>Sweden
>There's a guy wearing a Bucce's shirt
I saw that too. That has to be one of the Coaster Crew, right? If not... how?
Grona Lund looks like a pretty decent park.
Great video! I really enjoyed watching!!!
The small audio clip of Grim Grinning Ghost when you were talking about Monster took me to my happy place.
Looks like Liseberg is the far and away winner of the parks on this trip. Thanks for the series!
The Office and The Simpsons sound effects you put on Insane is absolutely insane, no pun intended.
As a swede that has gone there since I was a kid, it's always fun to see an outsiders perspective. Gröna Lund is great, and I hope they nail the expansion. Been talk about that since the 90s, can't believe it's finally happening.
Yes, Jetline will be scrapped, it was announced about a week ago. Kind of a bummer, since it's been a staple of the park for so long, but also understandable considering the accident.
I hope they get a good replacement.
11:55 That is a crane on Beckholmen, a wharf in the middle of the city. :)
the green lantern slander is overblown, easily america's most underrated roller coaster
NOT THE RANDOM BUCEES SHIRT HAHA that’s amazing.
Lrnom. Last ride of the night on Monster. Grona Lund is on my radar, same with Europe overall.
That actually looks like an interesting park to go to. I really think I'm going to try that fun house. That dark ride however, that sounds really weird, but I'm kinda curious. Lol😂😂😂
I love me a B&M invert and monster looks cool
0:14 No regerts? Okay then lol
I am now resigned to the fact that the article never get to follow in the translation... Anyway, great to see that you and the others enjoyed yourself as much as you did and good work on surviving Insane, Lustiga Huset and Blå Tåget!
Shoutout to your friend with the King Crimson tshirt, I have it too😅
why did you even get a green lantern shirt💀
also wtf i did not expect to see the real life version of that junior coaster train from RCT3😂
Translation: "Run away, run away as fast as you can" is most definitely not the translation of "insane". The direct translation of insane is "sinnessjuk."
Insane used to spin a lot more when it was new. However, after the tragic accident in Spain, Gröna Lund tend to balance out the riders wheigt on each side of the car, so it mostly spins just at the last hunchback.
I've never had any complaint for the Insane Zac-Spin ride experience whatsover. I don't know about the Green Lantern. But on the other hand, I'm a tad bonkers, maybe a little insane. ;)
“No regerts”
Really like the series, but just out of curiosity what is the jolly music used when it says norden adventure?
that's called Adventure Theme and it's in the UA-cam audio library
Hey AT, When are you coming to the UK, if it’s next year, Hyperia will be waiting and so will Nemesis
Not in 2024 but quite possibly 2025
@@AirtimeThrills Yes!!
Did you get to do the tilting drop tower that is similar to Falcons fury?
I've ridden Insane, wasn't too bad maybe because I'm not that big and the seat belt was quite loose
05:30 Respect to the dude wearing the King Crimson shirt instead of a coaster shirt.
16:18 - Is one of these at Gothenburg, Sweden?
Its funny because i actually hit the final brakes on Batman the S&S Freespin at Fiesta Texas upside down or on my head when i rode over the summer
Is monster a pretty decent invert? Or just mid teir?
Id say mid tier, its just different but not elite
@3:05 Hershey doesn't even have that much candy 😂
Some of y'all have a low tolerance for kitschy homespun paper machée Europeana dark rides, I see. That's how dark rides are supposed to be.
Coaster PTSD.
8:34 Alternate title: Americans discovering European attractions.
'In America this would never be allowed' - Every American thoosie comig to Europe ever.
We are so coddled with our litigious culture here
Oooh this was even worse than Green Lantern? What do you think about six flags and cedar fair merging
Full thoughts on the merger tomorrow morning
11:44 seems like a standard European fun house xD we have them on fairs all the time, New York New York, for example, but they would never have that in America because they don't know how to fun with a Karen sueing them lol
Oh no, green lantern
It's all fun and games until Pennywise the clown appears in one of the mirrors in the fun house.
No Regerts😂
Make a by the numbers of coasters selected by the community tab (make a poll)
I would honestly love to give Insane a try someday. I have been on Green Lantern: First Flight a few times (may that ride Rust In Pieces) and Insane looks to be an improvement over it's defunct American cousin (despite the fact that Insane is 2 years older than Green Lantern: First Flight).
Its an improvement by about 2%
Man, park really seems like it could use a drop tower.
When youre crammed for space just build vertical
"that's 3 jabs but 1 credit"
Why is there 3 drop towers?
When you got no space build tall and skinny
Gröna Lund is a very dense park in the middle of Stockholm so drop towers are the easiest way to make thril rides
I’m surprised. I really enjoyed insane, but my favorite ride in the park is jetline. Guess we’ll see what happens their.
The only good thing from the Cedar Flags merger is that hopefully no more Zac Spins come to the Six Flags parks :|
They only ever had one Zac Spin.
And hopefully my sfga diamond pass works at dorney too now
@@DoswarePictureswas that green Lantern??
@@topbaker4651 yes
@@topbaker4651yep. I've been on it a few times. Green Lantern: First Flight was fun the first year it opened but it became more uncomfortable and even painful for some riders when they redesigned the pods later on.
Ride Manufacturers "what kind of drop tower would you like?"
Grona Lund "Yes"
Also does Monster have the lowering floor? Does that mean Banshee is the only invert that doesn't?
Not sure about the floor ill have to look back at the footage when i get the chance
RCT2: "Would you like your drop tower to be a Roto-Drop or a Launched Freefall?"
RCT2 Players: "Yes. Very yes."
just wanted to tell you if youd missed it Gröna Lund announced like 3 days ago that jetline will be demolished
4:25 Someone wearing a Buc-ee's shirt in Sweden!
When is the World Series Video?
That ship sailed as soon as arizona beat philly
@@AirtimeThrills lol
5:01 Insert Ruin by Lamb of God
It's so cute when english speakers can't differnce between a and å, a and ä, and o and ö. ;)
The title of the video threw me off since that coaster has a … history
I can't imagine how terrible green lantern was.
The ride or the movie?
Yes
@@DoswarePictures the ride
Does this mean cw content on the way
I don’t think he’s gonna talk about Riverdale or the Arrowverse.
@@DoswarePictures I meant Canadas wonderland
@@Canadas_Wonderland_Nerd I know.
I had to push my ranking again to January 😕 then ill do a by the numbers later in the year
vilda musen has been really trimmed recently'
If it matters, the one ride EVER that I had on Green Lantern was pretty decent... 🤷
0:14 regerts
Me and my then 77 year old grandma rode vilda musen
Yo, which country had your favorite weather?
Sweden had the best weather on the trip by far
@@AirtimeThrills you were really lucky lol
YOOO
I would love to see Joe Biden try and climb those Funhouse steps. Lmao!!!
Sorry I had to.......😂😅😊
Okay, honestly, it's not gonna end well because for one: Six Flag Parks are so disgusting and they're operations (dispatch times) are abysmal and they are quantity over quality. Cedar fair on the other hand is about good operations (dispatch times), they're parks are clean and it's about quality over quantity. So it's not gonna end well
You’ve clearly never been to great adventure. Their operations are fucking insane. They run almost all their rides at full capacity and the dispatch times are crazy too. I saw an el toro crew do a dispatch in less than 45 seconds
That's not totally true about all Six Flags parks. Six Flags Magic Mountain is normally pretty good with their dispatches and they have been working on keeping the park clean these past few years.
I don't care how shit it is i loved green lantern and will always have a memory of the awesome ride i got on it!
