 Hey friends today, I am hanging out at Universal Studios, Orlando I came out today because I wanted to ride Velocicoster and Hagrid's motorbike adventure to see which ride I like more both of the rides are absolutely amazing And I have rode them before but I figure I need to ride them back to back to get a final judgment So let's go do this We just got done with a very big rainstorm and I believe both rides were down or delayed because of weather So it looks like they're running again now, and I think we're gonna head right on into islands of adventure Both of these coasters are amazing like I said, and they are completely different and have totally different aspects to them But I feel like I was living in the hype of Velocicoster when it first opened up Everyone was asking which one I perform more and because I was in that hype mode I was all about Velocicoster, but now I look back and I really do love Hagrid's I mean, I love them both, but I feel like I need to give a good Answer which one do I like more now? It doesn't mean either one is better than the other It just depends on which one I prefer to ride. I shouldn't say prefer I should say enjoy so which one I enjoy more which one gives me the tingly feelings You know what I'm talking about, but anyways look at the height requirements I didn't know Velocicoster was actually a higher requirement for Hagrid's Now I know It's gonna be a very humid day because of the rainstorm so I'm excited that we don't need to wear the mask anymore and Also, we're gonna be able to express pass on to Hagrid's because I got an actual ruby pass that I'm gonna be able to use Velocicoster on the other hand, we might be looking at a little bit of a long wait It did just open 10 or three days ago on the tent itself. So it's probably still very busy Before we head to our first attraction I wanted to show you guys the current wait times looks like Hagrid's is 60 minutes and the Velocicoster is at 75 minutes That's not too bad and plus Velocicoster has a single rider line that I might be able to use I'm cutting through Seuss landing and I think we're gonna go to Hagrid's first Yeah, we're gonna do Hagrid's first since it was actually here first and then we're gonna do Velocicoster Then we're gonna talk about a compare it to some other rides and then also enjoy the park itself because I'm not just coming here to Ride two rides. I'm gonna do much much more I like cutting through Seuss landing because everything seems like a little bit strange But you know what's really amazing this palm tree right here. Look at it How awesome is that that they have that in Seuss landing? I'm sure they did that on purpose But isn't it just so cool and unique? Look at the way it bends I've never noticed that before until right now The line for Hagrid's is actually starting in the lost continent But like I said, we have an express pass for that though. We don't have to actually weigh in that line We can just go right up to the front I wish that they would add the express pass to Hagrid's for like annual pass holders and also for the ones That you actually purchase. I feel like it's probably at that time since Velocicoster is now the big roller coaster in town Here is the line for Hagrid's it's starting in the lost continent And it's actually going all the way into Hogsmeade, but I have this fancy little pass They call this a ruby pass and a friend gave this to me while I was at the Orlando informer So thank you so much to her I was standing by the Butterbeer stand and they were leaving and they said that they couldn't use it So it's valid from 529 to 901 21 Everything good except for Velocicoster and the Flyers fancy It is super humid and hot so before I hop in line for Hagrid's I think I need to get my pre-pump-up drink over at Hogshead just to give me in the spirit give me in the good mood, you know Definitely a little bit crowded, but I'm gonna navigate right through it and right on over to my favorite Harry Potter pub I can feel the AC hitting me already. I'm probably gonna sit in here if I could and just kind of cool off a little bit Normally I like to get myself a deathly hollows drink, which is Hogsmeade, Guinness and then the side art But I think today I'm just gonna go with the Hogsmeade, which is the Exclusive beer they have here it's a Scotch ale and I think it has the highest ABV out of all of them The dragon scales darker, but this one has more alcohol Well, I couldn't sit inside and take up the AC because I didn't have any available seating But I could come out here and it's actually next to Velocicoster So I can give you kind of an outside POV of what it looks like and this is a beautiful viewing area There it goes That's got me really really excited to ride so I decided to come over here and stare at Hagrid's as well So I get excited to ride that Look at this Okay, now I think it's time. We're gonna get on the ride. I am so excited seeing them both from the outside It just gets me all pumped up and ready to go These are so much fun like the roller coasters that they are started building up the universe of studios have definitely Stepped up the game since Hagrid's I would say like I feel like it's on another level and I'm excited for epic universe Now it's time. We got to put our camera away. I am gonna show you the ride I can't film on it. So I'm gonna use stock footage or footage supplied by Universal or media themselves Yep, don't worry great shakes at matching Salen after me Just Oh That really gets the heart pumping there I Love that ride. So now I'm gonna make it down to velocity coaster And then I feel like I'll talk about things I like most about the ride and I'll do the same thing We're velocity coaster like what are the elements that make me like that ride so much and then like I said We're gonna hash it out see which one I like a lot more than the other So now on to Jurassic Park Oh Looks like the wait time is still 75 minutes. So I think I'm gonna try to use a single rider line I think it might be quicker one time. I was here the stand by wait was 60 minutes I use single rider and I got on 40 minutes. So sometimes it is worth it Sometimes I don't think it is because I want to ride front row. So I don't know Maybe I might have to be all in for the 75 minutes. Oh, I'm gonna have to think about it The downside to actually doing single riders You can't request a row so you can't do front row and I think front row is probably my favorite The reasons I like Hagrid so much is because of the launches the theming harry potter is so amazing I love it and also I love smashing that purple blood I feel like it gives you such like a sense of power But I mean there's a lot of different reasons and there's a lot of different reasons why I'd like the velocity coaster as well I love watching people hit that top hat right there and then their face when they come straight down We're gonna see if we can catch it live in action because it is so amazing Single riders will be split at least it's open. Hopefully it won't be too long right now We're gonna clock it and we're gonna see how long I guess at 75 minutes And then we'll see how long the single rider late was All right, camera has to go away say goodbye I love it so much I'm so happy we got to ride it looks like they delayed it because of the weather Holy moly we got on just in time. I feel so lucky Overall I ended up waiting just around 30 minutes So I feel like that's a win compared to 75 so I'm happy with that and it was so worth it so enjoyable Looks like the queue is going all the way back here and people are starting to abandon ship I think they realized it's been closed for a delay. Oh I feel bad it's gonna go back up though That ride literally gets the best of me every time I love it so much It's so hard to decide honestly it comes down to a story coaster a well-themed coaster Compared to a nice themed like thrill coaster. You know what I mean? So it's so hard inside. I love velocity coaster I love hitting that top hat. I like the second launch. I mean there is so much I love feeling like you're coming right out of your seat like I get your heart pounding and the adrenaline going so I Don't know I think we're gonna have to break it down in different categories, but overall it all depends on what kind of person you are That's how I feel, you know, I mean if you're more into the theming side Or if you're more into the thrill side, it all depends on you and I'm gonna have to figure out which one I am Because of the incoming storm I think we're gonna head back through Hogsmeade Maybe hop over to Universal Studios side and then we're gonna talk and I'm gonna try to break it down to decide Which one I like more. I love them both, but which one is my favorite? It's starting to rain, but let me know in the comments Which one is your favorite if you've written them both or if you can just tell from like the looks of them Like if you were to just judge it off this video alone or just seeing POV footage of it Which one do you think you'd like more? Let me know because I think it's a fun game to see Are you like team Hagrid's or your team velocity coaster? I think we'll take the Hogwarts Express over to Universal Studios side right now though. It is closed I don't know if it's a weather delay or if it is just some kind of mechanical issue But we're gonna wait till it opens up because I bet you there's not gonna be a wait Sometimes you can use rain to your advantage see how that works. I was gonna be you know probably walking over But since there's actually no wait and the line just reopened might as well hop in it Here it comes I love staring at the Hogwarts Express Now we're in our cabin and we should be arriving at King Cross station in no time And we're gonna explore universal side a little bit maybe get something to eat and then of course The final judgment which one do I like more? All right, we have made it. I like looking inside here when we're not running It's so cool, isn't it? Oh, sorry Someone was inside there Looks like the weather's not much better over here So we're gonna find somewhere to eat and then we're gonna just sit there and talk about Both of our favorite roller coasters in the park I think I'm gonna get something to eat at Mel's driving I haven't eaten here in a very long time and it looks like it's probably The lowest weight out of all the other places that you can get something to eat here at universal studios So it's a winner for me Now I found a table and I'm able to sit down I ordered food they're gonna deliver it out to me And it's have to sit outside instead of inside because you have to weigh in a huge line And of course I like the outside ambience just a little bit better I can hear transformers and that epic music. It's really nice, but I want to get to the coaster So I'm going to break it down in a couple categories and the first category definitely has to be theming I feel like Hagrid's is a more themed ride more Immersiveness. I really really love everything about it. I love the animatronics. I feel like that is a big thing I wish for lots of coaster had some kind of animatronic raptor I think that would have totally blew it out of the water But I mean like I said Hagrid's I don't think anyone can disagree with me on that I mean, maybe but I just feel like Hagrid's is a very themed ride But when it comes down to thrill Velocic coaster all the way I mean you literally feel like you're falling out of your seat that top hat everything is just so Amazing like I absolutely love it. I kind of get like that happy feeling But I also get that on Hagrid's so but it's like two different feelings I could get that glorious like happy feeling but also I get that I'm fearing for my life feeling on velocity coaster So uh velocity coaster definitely gets a thrill now for like the overall ride It's hard for me to decide because like I said, I'm more of a animatronic and immersive Person like I really am I would never pick the thrill ride over an immersive ride But I absolutely love velocity coaster I love the thrill and I really really feel like that is one of the most amazing roller coasters. I've ever ridden before So overall I gotta give it to velocity coaster I still think Hagrid's is in my top three if I was to say my top three roller coasters in Orlando It would definitely be between velocity coaster Hagrid's and then I'll throw mako in there Mako's a thrill ride, but oh man It's it's such an amazing coaster. So it all depends on who you are and what you like If you like rock and roller coaster better than Big Thunder Maui or expedition ever since you're probably gonna like velocity coaster If you're more into the theming like expedition everist, then I think Hagrid's is probably more you any who's Time to eat some food. I'm very excited. I'm very hungry I feel like that was a long-winded discussion, but the food is here now I ended up getting the barbecue brisket burger comes with an onion ring on there brisket barbecue sauce French fries and a good old bug lights can't go wrong with that combination I think this is gonna be my first burger from mel's. I mean, oh, yeah, look at this. It's a big burger. Oh boy I like the fries the brisket actually looks like the brisket they serve at monsters cafe. So I guess we're gonna dive in here Oh Yeah, that is so delicious. Look at that brisket on there and then the onion ring that is a good burger I really really like this. I didn't get the cheese. I'm not a big fan of the gouda cheese So I just went kind of rodeo style and it is so delicious. I'm very happy with this I wish I would have came here for the Orlando informer. I think this is one of the spots I missed It's hard eating at every single quit service location at universal studios But I almost did it that burger definitely hit the spot I really really did like it. I love mel's brisket sandwich So the fact that they add that same brisket onto a burger. I mean the burger is kind of just like a generic patty I think it's frozen, but oh man. So so good. I actually really enjoyed it. Oh, optimist crime Look at that big guy right there. It is an honor to meet you earthling Now that I've had my burger I think I'm gonna head on into the Jurassic World tribute store So I'm gonna dessert now one of the desserts they have in there I absolutely love it. I've had before but they actually made it like a Jurassic twist to it And that's the pistachio cream puff and I remember getting it. I think over by Kings cross, but I don't think I've had this one. Like I said, it's like a Jurassic twist So maybe we'll get with that. I mean that'd be a nice little dessert This is my first time actually going into the Jurassic World tribute store I only seen pictures of the pistachio cream puff and I was like, oh, I'm gonna have to take a peek in there It's so amazing how they do these stores though. They're so well put together Oh, oh We got that wet sneaker sound I'm gonna try to walk like a ninja So then I don't need to hear that sound and you guys don't need to but It's gonna be a little hard Tiptoe through tiptoe Oh, wow, look how cool this is Lots of rafters. I really like it They sell some amazing merchandise in the rafter room, but I want the Jurassic snacks Jurassic snacks Look at the theming in here It's so awesome, right Oh, wow Look at this big guy right here Dino food only do not feed the dinos human food Here's all the Jurassic snacks Velocicoster marshmallow pop a Velocicoster apple the pistachio puff and that's what I'm getting This actually looks really good the Velocicoster s'more I'm all about pistachio Look at that. Isn't it so delicious? It looks just like the one that I had not too long ago except for it has a T-Rex like chocolate chip on top. Still, this is one of my favorite desserts. I've ever had and R.I.P. John Hammond Spare no expense Not too sure how I'm gonna eat this. I didn't grab any silverware, but I'm gonna eat my little uh dinosaur chocolate here first Mmm It's like the powdered sugar just kind of came off there, but I'm gonna use my chocolate maybe to cut into this Nope, that's not gonna work. I'm just gonna have to bite it Not too sure how well this is gonna go, but we're gonna give it a shot Okay, that definitely tricked me because I knew it was a cream puff But I didn't know there was a hole in the bottom of it That's where that all came out from. Well, I guess that's how they put it in there So it did not work as planned Make sure I got all the pistachio cream out of my beard. I think I'm good any hoos We need to get moving out of here. There are some angry clouds moving in wait till I show you how scary it looks over here Look at this It is definitely gonna be a downpour soon if we can make it out of here without getting soaking wet I will be so so happy And with that, I hope you enjoyed the video Please let me know in the comments. Like I said, what is your favorite coaster whether it be Hagrid's or Velocic coaster Now when I say things like this, I'm talking coaster. I'm not saying my favorite ride is either one of them But coaster wise absolutely. So, uh, let me know in the comments team Velocic coaster team Hagrid's And I hope you enjoyed the video. I enjoyed making it. We'll see you next time. Bye I think everybody's got the same idea. It's time to get out of universal studios. Wow. Look how busy it is Things are definitely changing quick. I can say that Lots more crowds and people coming to visit florida. Welcome back
