  • great america is not the same without the big blue & green giant

  • ever since i was younger i wanted to ride this. Now tht they closed it down i want to sue them

  • Hehehe, note of warning to males who want to ride Deja Vu-

    The seating is not very kind to your man parts, especially when it "catches" the train right after you've finished the return journey and are about to be lowered down. (1:03)

  • i miss that ride it used to be at six flags over Ga a long time ago

  • I remember when this was at great America. I was only six, and j wasn't tall enough. But one of my friends have rode it before!

  • someone died on this at six fags great america

  • @waterwiz44 no - that didn't happen

  • Over a minute!!!!! SMH NO!

  • The reason I like this roller coaster is that it has more than one "power stroke" in it.

    Yeah, you have that first drop after being hauled to the top; I've always wondered what it would be like if they could power you AGAIN for another good drop; this coaster does this.

  • it just closed at magic mountain :(

  • Why did they take it down :(

  • This closed a couple years ago at six flags great america i love this ride :(

  • This ride is gonna close in october to be moved to six flags new england.

  • I went on this ride and i could've sworn i went through the same spot!

  • which ride replaced this one?

  • I still hate this thing... they removed the legendary and iconic Sky Whirl to put this pile of crap up. It was ALWAYS broken.. and I mean all the time. I bet this thing was down 50% of it's life.

  • @ProfessorIgor When they had it back in Great America, every time I'd go to the park, it would be closed for the whole day. There was one day where it wasn't but for three hours it was closed. This ride just does not have the best of luck.

  • Like this one i am so going to six flags next summer.

  • I can't watch this without thinking of the Beyonce song Deja vu lol

  • Silverwood aftershock, and this, same thim

  • @xlno94 It's not just alike - it's the same ride. It was moved from Six Flags to Silverwood.

  • I just read moments ago in the news that this ride is being moved to Six Flags New England and will be built over the Ship Wreck Fall site for season 2012

  • theres a rumor that the one is CA is moving to SFNE

  • the first time i wnt to six flags was wen dhey had Deja vu in chicago, the year after that i nvr saw it again......i regret not going on it nd i was only like in 6th grade!!!! one chance in a lifetime grrrr..........

  • @Mr713kingofthaghetto which six flags were you at ?

  • I loveee this ride at Silverwood! (: Pretty cool!!

  • well at great america its basicily V 2 now they took out the loop

  • i ws on de javu yesterday and wen u go to da second straight to go backwards da ride broke for 10 m. den took us up and ya prtty sik ride tho

  • Ok guys,deja never closed! I was on it two days ago!!invertigo at paramount great anerica closed cuz it had a major break down..magic mountians deja vu is open but might be in maitenece when you go

  • @lilrockinboy It's not at the Chicago or Atlanta parks anymore. It's still at the California park. The one from Chicago was moved to Silverwood in Idaho.

    So the only places left to ride this coaster in the USA are Six Flags in California or Silverwood in Idaho.

    Outside the US, you can go to Spain, Brazil or China.

  • @lordgonchar

    This and X had problems, but now it seems to be running very smoothly. Its just the loading time that takes like 5 minutes -_-

  • I remember when i got on the Deja Vu a group of riders were on it and the ride got stuck. Good thing i got on right after :)

  • i herd it wasnt there anymore ;( but im glad i got ride it atleast once.

  • can anyone tell me if this ride is still there this was one of my favorites and now i can't find it on six flag's website.....im planning to go back this summer AND I WANNA RIDE IT!!!!!!

  • @racered94 It's not at the Chicago or Atlanta parks anymore. It's still at the California park. The one from Chicago was moved to Silverwood in Idaho.

    So the only places left to ride this coaster in the USA are Six Flags in California or Silverwood in Idaho.

    Outside the US, you can go to Spain, Brazil or China.

  • @lordgonchar Actually There Is Now Going to be a Deja Vu renamed to "Goliath", at Six Flags, New England In Massachusetts. So now there's gonna be three in the US in 2012. :D

  • @KkAndGProductions No. That is being moved from the California park to the New England park over the winter. So the two in the US will now be at the Six Flags in Massachusetts and Silverwood in Idaho.

  • I rode this one in SoCal and another one in Idaho. Every time is like the first time. I'm afraid of heights so screamed like a little girl.

  • @PurpleNinjaBarbie it WAS removed, from six flags great america.

  • i never got 2 ride it :(

  • If only it was faster

  • i went on that yesterday in california. isnt this in jersey?

  • Do they still have this ride there?

  • @stergerfamily,no,they took it out ;( i hate it when they replace it a new ride.Deja Vu is no more

  • thats GAY! i wanted to gety on this coaster, i went yesturday and i noticed it wasnt there....

  • We still got it at Six Flags Magic Mountain BINGO!!!!

  • this is now in silverwood and they changed the name it's called after shock

  • This one's way better than the one in Georgia. Well, the one that WAS in Georgia. They tore it down to make room for Goliath, and possibly, because it sucked really badly.

  • They removed this ride in Atlanta. Georgia at Six Flags over Georgia ,because it was that dangerous. I swear like after ever ride somebody was sick.

  • I remember this ride! I was always to scared to get on but then again I was younger(a kid) back then! lol. 

  • so i havent been to six flags in a while and i was going to go on this and i just noticed they replaced this ride with a ride called dark GAY night !!!!!!

  • i miss deja vu! this ride was amazing! my stomach dropped so much going down the 1st spike , i always sat back row so id get the biggest drop. I miss it :(. atleast it still exists at six flags magic mountain!

  • why does it look so slow?

  • i remember i got to ride this ride only once and it was before the park closed and i was freaking out..later i found out that that same year i got on it they where going to take it off.. bummer :/

  • i was at six flags magic mountain yesterday and rode this ride, it's right next to X2. It seems like it goes way faster now!

  • THIS RIDE WAS OPERATING JUST FINE FOR THE MOST OF THE SEASON IN 2002 . THAT IS WHEN I HAD EXPERIENCED IT A LOT

  • glad they destroyed the ICON of Great America in the Sky Whirl and built this POS in it's place.. and took it out like 5 years later... Six Flags just doesn't get it. They try to keep up with Cedar Point and that is a battle they just aren't going to win.

  • RIP Deja Vu

  • @skywarangel why did they remove it???

  • i never saw this at six flags ?! :O

  • @fuuunkyxfreeesh they got rid of it years ago... that's why...

  • omfg iwent on this ride today and i loved it!!!!!!!!

  • in SFMM tht coaster is always closed it sucks

  • So mad they closed this...I never got a chance to ride :-(

  • @nickbrad1983 This was at Gurnee, IL right? I never got to ride either! >:/

  • That Totally Isnt There Anymore. Just Sayin. It Kept Breaking Down.

  • I use to live in Gurnee, over the road from Great America, this ride was always closed for maintenance. It really use to piss me off, because its a fucking hench ride!!

  • Seriously, a little bit of fix up and this ride should have stayed on, or redesign it or something. I have so many memories that I revisit everytime I sat in it….

    BTW guys – if anyone wants 4 six flags tickets, check out my video. I found a hack for a retail promo, and it still works, got me 2 full sets of 4. try it while its still available

  • this was removed because some people died on it

  • @CPRocWare Umm... no. No deaths were reported on Déjà Vu at Six Flags Great America. Of course there have been injuries of this MODEL at different parks, but not on this exact ride.

  • I remember we waited like 2 hours in the line to ride this but truely one of the BEST ever!!

  • Oh god!! why aint i living in the usa :( they dont have coasters like this in europe..

  • @xPiecesOfMe There's an exact clone of this ride in Spain.

  • @lordgonchar Wow really?? what park?? :D

  • @xPiecesOfMe Parque Warner Madrid

  • @xPiecesOfMe errrr basically the thunderlooper at alton towers but longer.

  • @xPiecesOfMe

    aww thats a bummer right

  • I rode the one at great America. It was okay.

  • 3 years ago in georgia, before they tore this out for thomas land, i got to go on the one at six flags over georgia once. it was really fun but it did brake down alot and thats probably y they tore it out. but anyway, we also have goliath and i say its probably bout as fun as goliath but goliath maybe be better like a hair. another thing, roomer is some lady lost her feet and died on the one in georgia , so if you plan on riding this, be cautious

  • Horrible ride. It was always broken down and when it wasn't the line was insanely long since everyone wanted to FINALLY ride it, but then it would just break down again when you're in line. I rode it 3 times just out of pure luck and it is extremely boring. It is slow, every time you get to that vertical section it has to slowly lift you to the top since you dont have enough speed to make it. There is nothing to the ride at all. They just made it to fill up space.

  • deja vu, means The illusion of having already experienced something actually being experienced for the first time..

    i get that feeling all the time, like didn't i do this same thing last week. lol

  • There a roller coaster similar to this in Sao Paulo, Brazil, named Boomerang! At the Playcenter Park

  • At the Six Flags in Arlington, Texas has a ride EXACTLY like this except it's red. It's called "The Flashback"....It's EXACTLY like this.

  • @Zombiegurl07 Except that it's not. This is much bigger and faster, has vertical spikes and hanging trains.

  • I hate this ride, it never ends and just repeats, when i got off i couldnt walk straight for half an hour, and not in a good way...

  • @On3ndOnly i think thats what Deja Vu means..... repeating over and over....

  • @On3ndOnly Deja Vu, means you like "keep thinking in the past"

  • haha, Roller Coaster Tycoon :P

  • I was annoyed last time as this was closed. I've looked on the SFMM website and it's been closed for a long time. Do you know when it's reopening?

  • ITS AFTERSHOCK!!!! IVE BEN ON IT 54738292787327479777777 TIMES....!!!! ITS FUN!!! BUT ITS CALLED AFTERSHOCK

  • This ride has so many different names it's hard to keep up.

  • truc de maladeeeeeee:)

  • it looks like boomerang & v2 put together .

  • When this ride was still here, I went to this park about 10 times and only 2 times it was running

  • this ride really isnt worth MM having.. they need something with more of a Thrill.. Terminator and the other rides top this one..

  • @Boytoy26 Terminator goes slower than this.

  • holy crap that is an epic rollercoaster!

  • wait a second...isnt this just the after shock?

  • @dimpledotable Yep. Same coaster - literally. They moved it.

  • @lordgonchar lol thats weird. I love that ride though!! =)

  • @dimpledotable red description next time, i dont get why people dont look for info in there

  • @dimpledotable look at the titlee!!!

  • @dimpledotable its the same roller caoster just this was the first one

    i saw this too and it htought the exact same thing

    silverwood just bought the desighn form them

  • @dimpledotable Yes. When Six Flags closed and dismantled this ride, Silverwood purchased it, and reconstructed it. This IS Aftershock, just in its previous location.

  • @dimpledotable Same type of ride. Different actual coaster.

  • that thing is hardly open everytime i go there.

  • i had sex on this ride!

  • @SwimmingMunky left, or right hand?

  • never got to ride it.... )': rip deja vu...

  • Its basically the flashback

  • This one gave me a fuckin headache

  • i blacked out n this.

  • I NEVER got to ride it! I was always too short! Now its gone D:

  • i hated this ride. made me puke D:

  • en mexico hay uno parecido el boomerang que antes estaba en puebla y despues fue comprado en ese encontnces por reyono aventura que asu evs fue comprado por six flax...hoy six flax mexico .

  • im glad 6 flags got rid of it, cause silverwood needed somthin, bad. and i live closer to silverwood =p

  • i wish they would've have taken this down i never got the chance to ride it :(

  • The number of times this ride was operating when I went to Great America is probably in the single digits.

  • i live here in san antonio, with six flags fiesta texas it has the goliath, and the boomerang, pretty sweet. and also the rattler which is the tallest wooden rollercoaster if im not mistaken...?

  • Looks almost exactly like Hangover did in Gothenburg Sweden except for the liftup. They also had a lot of problems with the ride and later removed it.

  • Silverwood Theme Park in Idaho bought this ride and renamed it Aftershock. its really fun.

  • LAME

    

  • what did they pput in place of it?

  • haha i remember riding this for the first time, i went with my brother and i he was so scared even before we got on, he was shaking!

  • Whoa deja vu!!! ;o!!

  • i  like it

  • it looks so,, sloww!!

  • I loke this ride sooooooooooo much better at silverwood ID

  • actually is is full of problems after everytime someone goes on it gets broken somehow.the ride to me is also inconvenint only one cart can go at a time so i dont think its worth the wait but its good to try:)

  • Dude. I LOVED THIS RIDE. :)

  • I love the ride :D..Hate the seatbelts

  • one of my fav rides at magic mountain im going tomorrow

  • i am from spain and the other coaster like deja vu is called stunt fall

  • I Went In Something Like That I Almost Died It There lol xD

  • sadly this was closed when i went

    BUT GOLIATH WAS AWESOM!!!

  • This ride went to Silverwood and now is called the 'After Shock'.

  • They say they took it down because of the fact that many people got an heart attack in the middle of the ride.

  • @SingingDR3AMS

    r u serious?

  • @SingingDR3AMS no it was because it would always break down

  • I don't know why, but I think this ride has the best cobra roll... :P

  • man i wish they didn't take this ride at six flags great america. i guess they took it down because it broke down too much and it cost too much money

  • its a suspended version of boomerang.

  • @JDrockerDUDE its a giant inverted boomerang. about 80 feet taller and with vertical spikes

  • EVERYTIME I WENT TO SIX FLAGS IN GURNEE, THIS RIDE WAS ALWAYS BROKE DOWN...lol...SO I NEVER GOT A CHANCE TO RIDE iT...OH WELL!! IT DIDNT LOOK THAT FUN ANYWAY!!

  • it is basically like bommerang of Six Flags in Montreal, Quebec. But the one in Quebec goes way faster, :)

  • @limeissupersexy Heh. Standard boomerangs do 45-50mph at best. This Giant Inverted Boomerangs (like Deja Vu) are about 80 feet taller and go more than 65mph.

  • @lordgonchar

    So why did the Six Flags in Atlanta and Six Flags in Illinois want to get rid of this ride, yet the Six Flags Magic Mountain kept it? If it was so riddled with probs, I would think Magic Mountain would ditch it too.

  • @mark40511 Don't really know.

  • @mark40511 It Broke Down A Lot! && They Didnt Want To Keep Fixinq It!

  • @SmileyD18 yup thats why they removed it

  • @mark40511 the weather might have had something to do with it

  • @mark40511 the sad thing is they got rid of this for another ride vertical velocity i mean all it does it launches you forward then goes backwards i mean its so stupid its doesnt even go upside down i go to six flags gurnee

  • @EducationBrainpop vertical velocity was theyre since before dejavu was. they were in completely different spots and operated during the same years

  • @mark40511 It would keep breaking down when people were in the air on the ride

  • @mark40511 they said it was to windy there and it was down to much so they move it to idaho

  • @mark40511 They took it out of Six Flags Great America (Illinois) because it had a lot of problems and didn't function correctly most of the time, but now it's called Aftershock and it's in Silverwood Park and now it works great.

  • @mark40511 it always got stuck

  • @mark40511 the one in illinois got broken down to many times. i was on it one time and it got stuck on the loop. scariest shit ever. i was only up there for 20 minutes, but i was scared shitless.

  • @mark40511  it was fucked up got stuck alot iv rode it twice

  • @mark40511 Becuase the ride design is very flawed. Too many breakdowns and maintainance costs were sky high.

  • @limeissupersexy no it does not is goes way faster and is way taller trust me ive been on a boomerange and deja vu deja vu is better

    

  • they have this ride at six flags magic mountain too... same paint and everything!! its a kiddie ride compared to everything else that's there though, but its so much fun!

  • song?

  • @TheBombeater Original music in all coasterimage videos. MP3's can be downloaded at coasterimage.

  • they had this ride at six flags over georgia,, but it kept sticking so they tore it down for a kiddie thomas the train ride.. AND I ONLY RODE IT ONCE WHEN I WAS LIKE 10>:((((((((((((((((((((((((((­(((

  • this is THE SCARIEST ride in the whole damn park.im not a screamer,but i was screaming so loud i was told that that i was heard from the bottom.its the end that gets you >LITERALLY<>off your seat<

  • Too bad it isn't there anymore. hahahahaha

  • yo dat shyt iz musg betta en de zoomerang at lake compounce but i wuldnt go on it lol

  • it's a bigger, better version of the invertigo at California's Great America

  • Hey, thats almost like a cobra in Powrpark, Finland.

  • rofl ur a noob its called Dêja vu

  • deja vu's pretty small compared to the other rides

  • this has the same thing like the loop and the half loops and corkscrews as the bat at canadas wonder land but it is not inverted so its a litle different i never got to ride deja vu i was always too short or when i was tall enough it was broken down and then they took it down :(

  • its like the Carolina Cobra at Carowinds in South and North Carolina

  • I never got to go on this, so many thanks for posting it. They tore it down because it broke down a LOT. I was about fifteen people away from riding it, and it shut down.

  • Boner.

  • They took this one down at Great America. It broke down too often. I never got the chance to ride it :'(

  • why'd they close the ride?

  • is it scarry yes or no

  • i remember riding that when i was younger!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! great ride

  • they closed the deja vu in gurnee,il...i never got a chance to ride it

  • this ride looks too flippen fun!!!!
