Great American Scream Machine Front Seat on-ride HD POV Six Flags Over Georgia

[cooliodudeyeth]

i rode this at age 8 and never rode another roller coaster until i was 14 because this one was so bad

[UntamedComedy]

This was my first roller coaster ride... at age 14 lol smh

[thenhewaddledaway19]

the air time on this ride is so much fun :D

[thenhewaddledaway19]

so i have scholiosis & i went on this ride , but when i rode in the front , i was in utter PAIN . but when i sat in the second to last cart , i didn`t feel a thing . so i guess anyone with a bad back should try that because it worked for me (ironic , i thought it`d be worse)

[Kenneth2890]

This coaster needs to be reprofiled, similar to the Texas Giant, but keeping it all wooden, just to make it smoother again. Non-the-less, still a great coaster, but my favorite is the Cyclone at the front of the park, now that is a killer, I might hurt afterwards but it's worth it, lol!

[PinguPinke]

I love this ride sooo much. But after I rode it in the Summer, my tailbone was MESSED UP.

[legomaster335]

me and my dad went on that :D his back was hurting before, and it didnt help.ahhhhhh good times...good times

[UnearthSuper]

This ride will also break your belt if you are wearing one

[n0ns3nse1]

@FreshFilmReviews Sounds to me like they were stuck in front of straight people.

Anyways, this ride was so rough after the flood a few years ago, but they re-tracked in between the hills last off-season. It was absolutely wonderful. And photogenic to boot!

[FreshFilmReviews]

I had to wait for 40 minutes, since they were running 1 train, but we were stuck behind gay guys, and yes they were holding hands. Its a fun airtime woody though!

[fyadcorp]

@FreshFilmReviews why do you care what other guests do

[FreshFilmReviews]

@fyadcorp It was just uncomfortable. I'm not saying it was bad.

[mw2addictish]

dont wana be racist but, i was sittin next a black dude and he screamed like a girl

[KHowland1964]

(Hope)

[KHowland1964]

My 9 year old sister

[KHowland1964]

Also, Hope bumped her lip on that ride

[KHowland1964]

I rode that and it was awful

[KingTrollTheFirst]

i rode it yesterday :)

[nmybriefs]

It's in a great part of the park. The only thing is that it will beat the crap out of you. About as bad to your back as the Cyclone is.

[coasterfreakist18]

Other than Gemini at Cedar Point this was one of the best wooden coasters ive been on in my life.

[wwwCOASTERFORCEcom]

@coasterfreakist18 Gemini at Cedar Point is a steel coaster. ;D

[androidmasterman]

@wwwCOASTERFORCEcom Well kinda. It's a hybrid. I guess it does have a steel track. But it looks like a woodie.



[xXBabyFaceAssassinX1]

it's a classic and it's still great xD

[iTriicKey]

that ride is so fucking bumpy its ridiculous

[nightmare34953]

This ride sucks! I nearly broke my damn collerbone on this! Painful!

[coolnatt]

@nightmare34953 - Your comment was posted 2 weeks ago, but maybe this is a possibility, maybe they have fixed it since you've been or something, 'cause I went today and it wasn't that bad, but maybe it's just me, and it also depends on where you sit, I think I was in the middle-ish.

[Noobs4Choobs]

This almost looks like the Wild One at Six Flags America.

[Jakereisman11111]

how tall is the first drop

[wwwCOASTERFORCEcom]

@Jakereisman11111 89 feet

[benthebad]

Its called the Great American Scream Machine but no ones screaming lol

[chanandjax2215]

they need to repaint it

[griffinisbeast14]

love this ride

[nilekat936]

I rode this at night when lockheed martin had a family fun night there, riding the roller coasters at night is waaayy more fun!!

[TheJedigir]

when was this ride built?

[ocarinag33k]

@TheJedigir 1972 or 1973. cant remember.

[TheJedigir]

@ocarinag33k i knew it, the woodie gasm has been around longer than the arrow gasm at sfga, and still lives unlike the other.

[jayflem57]

One of my fav woodys definitely under rated great airtime throughout. Only negative is the hard brakes at the end.

[juciyfruit123456789]

me and my friend samantha rode this 13 times when we were in the thris grade and we lost our vocies

[LoZWWisawesome]

Oh. My. God. I was shaking so much after getting off this ride.

[SwagTurnedOn99]

I think it's funny how the dude riding the rollercoaster can't scream!!

[JEIndustries]

1:00 go down the hill then.

[griffinisbeast14]

try ghostrider at knottsberry farm in california! it is amazing!

[dexterfan10165]

This was one of my favorites, as well as Superman Ultimate flight.

[PerfectDressageGirl]

this is an awesome coaster its probably my fav and go in the front its really smooth 

[GraceMakenzie82]

I honestly hate wooden roller coasters. I mean, I have never been on a smooth one... anyone ever been on an actual smooth wooden one? if not, then I rest my case.

[Winstrave]

I almost hit my head on the overhang thing at the end. I guess that's just the rewards of being too small for the ride.

[Jah044445]

This ride tossed me around like a basketball. It was fun, but I think I'll gladly pass on my next visit. Haha.

[05lele]

WARNING: This ride will jerk you around a lot. I had a major headache after I got off. And my butt was out of the chair most of the time. lol

[Southgamedemon99]

@05lele cOOl

[6flgslover]

@05lele sit in the front of any rw ima girl and i wuz ok and yu shud no y i sed that

[LoZWWisawesome]

@05lele SAME. I had to sit down and go to Dippin' Dots just to get my mind off the headache, LOL.

[kaysonfired]

this ride bis a picece of shit trust me

[jdb1999]

@kaysonfired dude it is a very good wooden rollercoaster 1 of the best 1s to me

[bigp737]

In September 2009, this coaster flooded, only the tops of the hills could be seen.

[6flgslover]

@bigp737 yeah i memeber that i feared so much that they were gonna hav 2 get rid of this coaster but it turnz out it wuz fine opened up the nxt week

[downonme11]

O.M.G THAT HURT MY JAW do not ride this ride

[GuyWhoLikesBTR]

Did they change this ride? Cause last time I rode it they stopped you like out of no where and it hurt like hell.

[6flgslover]

[reesyluvsu2]

[FailBunny3]

[MsLegend99]

Thumbs up if you at one time you thought the cyclone and scream machine were the same rides

[ubernoobly]

THAT RIDE HERT MY BOOBS

[carlislelep13]

not hardly anyone is screaming......?

[jmr1068204]

Oh, and thanks for putting all of the (high definition, at that, which is awesome) videos on here of all of the rides. A family member can't ride these coasters without getting sick. It's good to be able to show her what they are like without getting on it.

[jmr1068204]

This coaster is a lot smoother than say...The Georgia Cyclone. I love the sign at 2:04. "At sound of horn you have 3 min to clear the tracks". The whole ride is ending at 2:04, and that's including going out of the station, up the lift hill, etc. 3 min? They've got to be kidding. You'd be dead by 2 minutes...

[YesYou123333]

When I was about 12 years old, The Great American Scream Machine was the biggest coaster in the world.

[Coasternator]

This looks so smooth! Wow probaly one of the smoothest on youtube of it's year!

[JulianneSparrow2]

@Coasternator Looks can be deceiving. I've ridden this coaster hundreds of times and I can't count how often I've gotten off feeling as if I'd been in a car accident lol.

[Coasternator]

@JulianneSparrow2 Actually look at Rattler built 1992 and way rougher than this look up Judge Roy Scream and it is as old but still alot rougher this is one of the smoothest oldest rides.

[Bendyournoodle]

@JulianneSparrow2

Go on the Mean Streak at Cedar Point in northern Ohio, every time I get off of it it feels like someone took a jackhammer and a concrete buster to my entire back and head. It's HORRIBLE. xD

[Sandstorm88]

You are looking at history. In 1976 it was the tallest roller coaster in the world. There might be one or two taller that it now. LOL!!!!

[lilice1907]

do all of the six flags copy each other? this is the american eagle basically.. come on

[scipiomask]

@lilice1907 not really....

[midgetman82]

Ride this ride for all I care, but please oh please dear lord PLEASE DON'T SIT IN THE 3RD ROW!!! I hated this ride because of that, until I sat front row, then I loved it!

[OverAllMusicGuy]

@midgetman82 Are you kidding me? the last row are the worst for wood-coasters! That's why I always ride the back ;)

[CraSSiou]

Heh looks good but i think the Colossos in germany is better.

[Janjaoguedes]

Next year i'll go to Magic Mountain. These other coasters are great but nothing can compare to Six Flags Magic Mountain's Roller coasters. =]

[MynameisTitus13]

@Janjaoguedes actually there are LOTS of parks with coasters better then the ones at Magic Mountain.

[petersheeler]

I look forward to making a southern trip to this park in 2012. (I am from New Jersey). But after watching this POV, I realized this is a larger version of Yankee Cannonball at Canobie Lake Park. I really enjoyed it.

[CanucksFan127]

i like how part of it is over water

[6flgslover]

@CanucksFan127 yeah it makes it rlly pretty ;)

[falling4u365]

I think it would be faster if they lubed up the track. xD

[jaowens23]

@falling4u365 great idea

[Dnator97]

wooden coasters are allows more ruff. Like The Beast at King's Island

[LordSkippyVIII]

Aha! A fantastic wooden coaster.

[phillyphan24]

The one in NJ was ok

[MBrilhart]

Looks like fun! Bumpy just like a wooden coaster should be.

[XxDakman96xX]

This was sooooo painful

[gamerhack]

stupid trim brakes
