JUMBO JET roller coaster - CONEY ISLAND, NY 1992

[Barenofgreymatter]

I rode the one at Cedar Point in Ohio and wish they still had it there. It was my first coaster ride and the one that got me hooked

[odie6789]

The best part of this coaster is that it operated with NO SEAT BELTS!!!! it was awesome.

[hayleywins]

I rode the Jumbo Jet at the CNE, great ride!

[HattieLovesCattie]

Some old rides are being bought by others.The Starliner coaster at old Miracle Strip Park in Fla is being brought back.

[HattieLovesCattie]

@articzoo I think so but there are no big hills either.

[cherrykellymv1]

cool, how long does it suppost to be for on ride?

[HattieLovesCattie]

Maybe another amusement park will buy it and restore it ?

[doald]

Vancouver canada had the same one!

[BuilderGuyNolimits]

@doald Nope, Vancouver didn't have the same one. The one that was in Playland was a jet star 2 model. Not a jumbo jet. The main difference is the hills are smaller and only 1 car per train.

[doald]

@BuilderGuyNolimits well it was years ago , but it looked like the one here

well I did like this ride , but as playland vancouver does they remove rides instead up keeping them as it now has one half decent wooden coaster and one lame cheep coaster which they got for a penny from ontario.

[doald]

@BuilderGuyNolimits still think it was the same and one or two carts could of been added so it looks the same to the T.

[doald]

@BuilderGuyNolimits actually I think your right as looking it up!

[Turtle3000GT]

Reminds me of the Wildcat at Cedar Point, well the track anyway does, looks fun as hell!

[ThrillersEscape]

I rode this ride for the first and last time back in 1999. This ride was AWESOME at night.

[loungefly2112]

Cedar point had one until the late 70's it was sold to Beoland in the soviet union

"Bump,bump,bump ya ass off"

[BowlingDiseased]

I rode it, very cool ride

[datkoolbrutha]

This was a classic ride at Coney Island.And I remember when it was at the old steeplechace park,and then they relocated it.Somebody said you can hear the Eldorado "Bump,bump,bump ya ass off" lol! Good memories,cuz they're about to tear all of that down to make a "better amusement park" which in english means hotels with condos.I got mad when they demolished the Thunderbolt rollercoaster,and that was clearly a landmark.And at the time Mayor Giuliani let it be destroyed. Daum shame!

[OnlyGodisgreat]

@datkoolbrutha yeah i think if they had kept the landmark coasters and restoring the ones that were messed up and adding improvements every couple of years coney island wouldve been the best amusement park in the world

[leroybrown96]

@datkoolbrutha It was at Cedar Point for awhile but they sold it somewhere else, again. Last time I heard it was still up and running, along with the Demon Drop that Cedar Point recently sold to Coney Island I believe.

[datkoolbrutha]

@leroybrown96 well Demon Drop went to Dorney Park, which is owned by Cedar Point. I don't think Coney Island will get something like Demon Drop anytime soon,lol! Most of the new rides there are "family oriented" and they wanna focus on the "fun factor" out there,lol! The only extreme thrills out there now is the Cyclone, and a new Zamperla ride called Air Race. I'm still waiting to see if they will get a coaster from B&M,Intamin, Verkoma, or some other builder,lol!

[leroybrown96]

@datkoolbrutha Oh hmm, ha. Thanks though for the info! I miss the Demon Drop, it was kinda boring but it was fun.

[Gmancrap]

what kind of camera?

[bubbleboy97]

and then came the wild mouse

[TruDumKids]

lol.. you can hear the bumper cart sound playing... BUMP BUMP BUMP YOUR ASS OFF.. ITS ELDORADO.. best bumber cars you can ever ride

[woodencoasterfan]

Such a shame these Jumbo Jet coasters are disapearing, there aren't that many left these days. I hope I get to ride one before they're all gone.

[staunchcharacter]

Thanks again for another great video, Swampfoxer. :)

[PHILRYABKIN]

Coney Island is classic.

[datkoolbrutha]

There was a time when the Jumbo Jet in Coney island didn't have restraints. But after someone fell from it, they installed lap belts just before they closed it down in 2002. It's a shame though. And now the only thing that will be open in C.I will be the Cyclone and the WonderWheel!

[Trav6101]

didn't this ride have no restraints?

[keiraknightley90]

i wish this ride was still there

[eddie1967]

Thank you for posting this.

[beautifullybroken077]

for an oldish typ of coaster it actually looks kinda fun lol

[NorthEastCoasters]

This was one of my first coasters. The last time I rode it was in 1996, the day it derailed. I got weirded out that I rode it the hour of, and I never went back on it. Which I now regret

[mesmoland]

Great footage reminds me of the Alton Beast @ Alton towers,but it was short lived there.

[sjtom57]

Another keeper. Great job.
