RailRider Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 This video shows a strange object floating over Kings Dominion and UFO speculation is running rampant. I wonder if aliens like Intamins or if this is the start of some clever viral marketing for next years new coaster. Should be interesting.

Shaggy Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 I didn't watch the video, however it's just a smoke ring from Volcano. There are low-lying clouds which would cause the smoke ring to hover for a while. Shaggy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 I heard there is a military base on the site of Kings Dominion and there is rumored to be a Saucer in a hanger. Actually I think they are mistakenly letting the general public in the hanger now... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maverick2007 Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 I do think this may be the start of a viral campaign. UFO sightings aren't (that) uncommon and the news doesn't devote very much time to it if any at all. The only problem I see is that they already have a UFO centered coaster (FoF). Can you say "Son of Flight of Fear"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Interpreter Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 Yes. I can say it... Terpy, in your heart you knew he would (and if that's viral marketing, I really miss Jeff Seibert!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maverick2007 Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 Yes. I can say it... Terpy, in your heart you knew he would (and if that's viral marketing, I really miss Jeff Seibert!) I believe that's the first time I've been "Terpy-fied". I feel so initiated. But anyways I say that the website will report an "exclusive report" that say multiple witnesses say "Nimatni" was painted on the side. For those of you that couldn't decipher it that's Intamin backwords. It was ued in the Fahrenheit viral campaign. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
violakat03 Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 I didn't watch the video, however it's just a smoke ring from Volcano. There are low-lying clouds which would cause the smoke ring to hover for a while. Shaggy Agreed. I think this is a case of a slow news day. If you ever watch Volcano's fire, it always leaves a smoke ring just like that, but normally it dissipates after a couple minutes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beast79 Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 I agree with the low overlaying clouds causing the smoke ring to linger around for awhile, or it was just swamp gas from a weather balloon was trapped in a thermal pocket and reflected the light from Venus.

DropZone99 Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 I think It may have to do with the new coaster, mainly because they said it had to do with another ride. If it was because of Volcano's eruption I'm sure they would of said "It's smoke from the Eruption from Volcano The Blast Coaster." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beast1979 Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 Could be the beginning of a marketing campaign for the new roller coaster, it seems extremely early for that though. The first teasers for Diamondback were put up what, 4th of July? Could be just another UFO sighting, there are tons every year and this one coincidentally happened to be over Kings Dominion. Then again, MJ-12 could be doing their dirty work again..... Jackson, who thinks the new ride could involve little green men..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom76257 Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 Watch at about 4:15. Both videos show smoke rings from Volcano. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
violakat03 Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 Good catch on that Tom. I shot a good video of Volcano's fire but it was at night so you can't see the smoke ring. It definitely leaves a distinct ring, not a puff or cloud like you'd expect. I thought it was pretty cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
specialk141 Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 i dunno.... i mean Drop Tower is in the center of the park, and volcano is on the left hand side of the park... not really "close" enough to "encounter" one another... okay, i apologize, that was pretty bad....

Beast1979 Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 Maybe it's a "Third" generation "Kind" of ride. Jackson, following up on the previos post, because he only got half the title! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
