Glad you’re branching out of Disney and showing your viewers some of the better parks in America. Kings Island holds a special place in my heart love that place
This summer, I've gone to Mt. Olympus, Six Flags Great America, Kings Island, Cedar Point, and Hersheypark. Kings Island was the one that surprised me the most in a positive way. I regret not being there for the 50th anniversary last year but man the park is so gorgeous aesthetically. The ride ops were outstanding. I never waited longer than 20-25 minutes for any roller coaster. I definitely want to go back next summer, too bad it is 7 hours away! haha
This is my home theme park! Years ago, my husband and I lived down the road from here and would go every week! We always talked about how much we loved your videos and how we’d love to move to Florida one day. We now live in Orlando, so to see you at our old park is so nostalgic and heartwarming for us! Thanks for showing KI so much love! 💕
My friend Dylan works at the park and he is a character attendant and if you guys are ever in the park make sure you find him and say hello 👋 and tell him I sent ya!!! I’m best friends with Dylan 😁
Lots of Ohioans including myself here in the comments. I love kings island so much! I hope you head to Cedar point too! King island is my favorite of the two for the theming and for the mix of Flat and dark rides
Theme parks like this really do offer the best value. You get such great thrill rides and don’t have to be glued to your phone or be nicked and dimed to enjoy.
It’s so crazy to see you visiting the place I actually work at! I am so glad you enjoyed your time at the park and thank you for the complement about how nice the employees are. We try to make sure everyone has the best day possible so your positive comment means a lot. Can’t wait to see the next parts!
We used to live right by KI and watch the fireworks from our deck at night. So fun! Also, fun fact: The Racer used to have one side that went backwards. You haven't lived until you've ridden backwards on a wooden roller coaster!
My Uncles used to live in Ohio and would tell me stories about Kings Island and The Beast. Thank you! :) Watching this video is like stepping into their shoes!
YOU CAME UP TO OHIO!?! I cover Cedar Point and Kings Island almost exclusively. If you ever want to collab, I would love to show you all the craziest tips for those parks. Let me know if you're back in this area in the future and you want to connect. :)
I’m so glad you had fun at King’s Island! As a native Ohioan, I grew up on Kings Island and Cedar Point. So many great memories from those parks. I’ve been so excited for you to get to experience both! Great video and I’m excited to see them rest of your King’s Island videos and also your ones from Cedar Point!
Dev! Thank you for this one. I grew up in Ohio till I was 10 then moved to FL. This was a pleasant surprise to see this. You never cease to amaze us with your diverse content. Best channel!
I love this for you! This was my theme park growing up. I wish I could have been there and met you, that would have been awesome! But I am just so happy you were able to make it up. I'm still planning my visit for their 50th, your video is very helpful for that! 💕
Dev I wish I knew you were going to Kings Island. This and Cedar Point are truly the best amusement parks on the planet. Enjoy your time in each park. You wont be disappointed. The World's biggest, longest, fastest, record breaking coasters await you.
Dev loved your video! I never heard of this park before so it was refreshing to see your first new video travel adventure WOW ...such AMAZING roller coasters! Nice work Dev! 👏 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️👏😊 Love to you and Bianca 💕
Finally big brother and sister!!! I know my beard would be in my fave on Orion!!! Let's talk about the beast "it's a beast" I need to ride it!!! Man I gotta make it to kings island!!! Even though you were unable to ride without filming I think that's good because you deserve to enjoy the this moment!!! Thanks for everything you do my guy!!!!
This is also my home theme park! I was born in Cincinnati & lived there until I was 12. I have a lot of family still in the area but I haven’t been in quite a few years. I have such great memories from my childhood going to K.I.! So good to see someone I follow finally vlogging there!
Great video Dev! These are the kinds of videos I love! I hope you can travel more and do a Cruise series soon! Also Volcano Bay…save yourself from the heat wave haha
Technically it’s a roller coaster of 300ft in height, although Orion is only 287ft its drop is 300ft because of the terrain, so it still makes it a giga coaster.
I remember being so scared of the Beast as a kid. I used to ride the Beastie. I even rode the Vortex before getting the courage up to ride the Beast. Lol Needless to say I was very unimpressed will the fear everyone else in my family had. I don't enjoy wooden rollercoasters at all in my old age. I have to take Tylenol before I even get in line.
Welcome! Worked there for 15 years and met my husband there. My childhood park too. This is the first year we haven’t had a season pass… thanks for posting all the ❤️!
Awesome park Awesome video as always sledgehammered that like button stay safe and blessed sharing out full watch used to go there all the time growing up in Ohio
Oh WOW!!! Good morning/Good evening! Beautiful day at Kings Island 🏝 Never been at this theme park. OMG! Look at that roller coaster noooooo for me 🎪🎢🎡 used to in my younger days 😂 overall I still love theme parks. Its a happy place for a hot summer day! Enjoy and be safe! Thanks for sharing! 🎢🎢
Kings island I haven’t been there in a loooog time! Cedar point is kinda closer to me (I live in Michigan) but so happy you are able to come farther north
Was wondering if you'd ever make it to our favorite park! KI actually posted a video on how they put a dent in that truck at Mystic Timbers... worth checking out. Also- your video is the best Kings Island coverage ever. can't wait for part 2
We've been pass holders for many years. I knew you would love it and glad you had a great time. Try to get back up here again and enjoy the waterpark and a few of the other rides. Kings Island is a well balanced park that offers something for everyone. I agree two days is better, sometimes too many rides on our coasters in one day can be hard on the body. It's good to break them up with the many relaxing fun rides. Two days is better to keep it from being overwhelming. I know you were here for the coasters and very happy you got to see my park after watching you at the Florida parks for years and getting a ton of useful info. Thank you for such an awesome review. Ohio hospitality says please come back and visit again.
If you liked this park you should come to Canada and experience Canadas Wonderland. Has great coasters as well. It is owned by the same people. I think you would be very surprised! Its just a hop skip and a jump from where you are, in Vaughn Ontario near Toronto.
I’m so happy you got to go!!! Kings Island is my home park. I was born the same year they open, so been going there all my life. All the coasters there are awesome, though The Beast is my all-time favorite.
I'm so excited to see you're doing the Ohio parks! I grew up smack between Kings Island and Cedar Point and this video hit so many nostalgia buttons for me. Thank you for filming there!
This is the Theme Park I grew up with! So cool seeing you visit there. I haven't been in 12 years.. I've been in LA for 7 years. This is one of my favorite videos because you're experiencing my park ❤️ ENJOY MAN!
Awe Man - You CANNOT CALL favorite after first ride. I can’t wait to see where you land by the end of this video. Also - I’m anxiously awaiting how you like The Beast, it is MY FAVORITE, must be done at night, but you also need to seat wisely for a less rough ride. The through the woods feel is not matched anywhere in all of parks and coasters we have ridden. Ok - on to watching more. This is so fun for me Thanks Dev!
My home park! I grew up going Kings Island! I grew up in Columbus. Too bad Vortex is no longer there, that was my first ever upside down ride. Please tell me you rode The Beast!!! You can’t go to Kings Island without a ride on that! Banshee is where Son of Beast was located…you didn’t miss out on that. The Racer was also featured on The Brady Brunch. Are you going to Cedar Point? Oh my gosh! Stop in Columbus at the Zoo! :)
Cedar Point better be next!! Fun Fact The Brady Bunch filmed an episode there at Kings Island. Also I hope you visit the Pennsylvania theme parks they have a lot of good ones there
Now I need to go to Kings Island!!! Loving your enthusiasm for the park, the rides, the queues and the merch! Looks so fun and very clean there too! Excellent job filming!
So cool to see you make your way to Ohio and to my home park of Kings Island. It was fun to get to experience a first-timer's thoughts on the rides I've ridden too many times to count. (I smiled when you passed Flight of fear and said, "so I think this is a dark ride of some kind..." Glad you enjoyed yourself. The Beast is still my nostalgic favorite, but Orion is a close second. I really loved this video.
Thanks for sharing! I've always wanted to visit Kings Island as well as the rest of the Cedar Fair (formerly Paramount, etc) Parks. Canada's Wonderland is our closest park, and it shares many of the same rides as Kings Island.. always a great time. Can'r wait to see the rest of your videos.
Great place. I live within driving distance. I still have to say, the Beast is the best. Although my old bones may not agree 🤣😂🤣. Orion is awesome though, and soooo smooth.
Right out the gate, you sounded super excited which made me excited for you.😁 Looks like you had a blast and as always thanks for for being genuine and honest about your experience. So refreshing to see😊😁
Went to Kings Island for the first time last year and had an absolute blast!! First time on a coaster of Orion’s magnitude. The Beast is an amazing and somewhat painful experience especially if you sit in the back lol
As a native of southwestern Ohio and having visited Kings Island since a kid, it’s so nice to see someone experience it for the first time! Makes me have a renewed appreciation for the park! It’s definitely a roller coaster lover’s park, for sure.
Glad you’re branching out of Disney and showing your viewers some of the better parks in America. Kings Island holds a special place in my heart love that place
Mines too. Went there alot as a kid.

We did the same! Grew up going to Kings Island as a teen. Lived in West Chester, moved to Orlando several years ago to be closer to the parks 😂.
Same here! We just got here in May. This is the only thing I'll probably ever be homesick over. Especially since we get a Skyline now.
@@disneyfun_damentals4843 I wish we would get Gold Star but will take what we can get here, lol!
I live 5 min from the park!!

I grew up going to Kings Island. So happy you could visit. Such an amazing park!

The memories! Visited every summer as a kid. Can't believe Beast and Racer are still going. Old school folks will remember "Days of Thunder!" 😎

Welcome to the greater Cincinnati area!
Slaughterhouse is for Halloweekends. lol. Never thought about that if you don't know that would seem very ... OMINOUS.
Great video Dev! These are the kinds of videos I love! I hope you can travel more and do a Cruise series soon! Also Volcano Bay…save yourself from the heat wave haha
Thanks Dev for the video. You mentioned Orion was a gigacoster What does that mean? Glad you had such a fun time. Take care and safe travels. 🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂
Technically it’s a roller coaster of 300ft in height, although Orion is only 287ft its drop is 300ft because of the terrain, so it still makes it a giga coaster.
@@VernRichardson328 Thanks 👍
Kings Island looks nice, but I am deffinately looking forward to the Cedar Point video
Hello Scott I hope you have a great time at cedar point
After hearing your thoughts on Orion, we gotta get you on Fury at Carowinds 🔥
Omg! I am sooooo jealous this park is on my bucket list too!
My home town! Always a good time growing up. Looks like you enjoyed every second!
I love King’s Island and grew up only a few hours away from it! Last time I was there was 1997 for after Prom. Lol. Looks like you had a great time!!!
I remember being so scared of the Beast as a kid. I used to ride the Beastie. I even rode the Vortex before getting the courage up to ride the Beast.

Finally a good quality UA-cam video of someone's tripped Kings Island. Great production quality dude. I hope you had a good time.
I can hardly wait to go first time this month! So happy to see your content beyond Disney. You're killing it.

“The Bat” is NOT the original one. It was Top Gun originally.
Cedar Point better be next!! Fun Fact The Brady Bunch filmed an episode there at Kings Island. Also I hope you visit the Pennsylvania theme parks they have a lot of good ones there
I came here to see who else remembered the Brady Bunch visiting - and the Yogi Bear poster 😜

Awesome! I didn't even know about this park, Thanks DEV
It was awesome to see you this morning! Great video 👏 thanks for being so kind!

Love all the new places you experience and take us along
Your in my backyard! You should hit the trifecta while in the area. Both Kentucky Kingdom and Holiday World are pretty close!!
This video is next level! You’re so happy, the rides are great, and for the first time ever, a mime made me laugh
Great place. I live within driving distance. I still have to say, the Beast is the best. Although my old bones may not agree 🤣😂🤣. Orion is awesome though, and soooo smooth.

2:31 Imagine that drop. I think I'll enjoy Orion vicariously
Nice video, you sounded very happy to be there! Looking forward to your Cedar Point video!
Woohoo! Almost in my neck of the woods. We are about two hours from Cedar Point and three from Kings Island. Enjoy the weather in sunny Cincinnati!
