coaster_junky Posted June 23, 2009 Posted June 23, 2009 so, since you can't search "The Bat" i decided to post this video that i found of it, if it has already be posted just delete this topic. name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src=" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>"> name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src=" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="350"> it takes a little while to get to the part showing The Bat at 1:43 Quote
fbama73 Posted June 29, 2009 Posted June 29, 2009 Man, oh man! There are some great memories in that video!!! The Bat was just SO superior to the suspended coasters that followed it. Sure, what made it great is also what killed it- but it was FUN while it lasted! Nice to see some clips of some other gone and very missed favorites, too: Zodiac, Flying Dutchman, The Racer with paint, The Beast with water and without the satanic trim brakes... sigh Quote
The Interpreter Posted June 29, 2009 Posted June 29, 2009 That's been posted many, many times, but it's a great video and deserves reposting. Perhaps the first time it was posted was here: http://www.KICentral.com/forums/index.php?...;hl=d1CIOVIK6Cc In any event, it's fantastic and well worth a bump! Quote
coaster_junky Posted July 6, 2009 Author Posted July 6, 2009 yea, i was hessitent about posting it because i couldn't search "The Bat" to see if it was posted before, and it was so yea, if any admin wants to they can close this topic. Quote
The Beast Rider Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 What a good video to watch! It was nice to see The Racer racing, the old Beastie sign, and even the four bench trains on The Beast. And do my eyes decieve me, but I believe I see a Beast first drop with not a trim brake in sight! Ahhh, the good ole' days. Quote
The Beast Rider Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 It wouldn't be the first time! How did you do that so fast?? Quote
The Interpreter Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 I don't have to look. I rode it then. I know what was there. Quote
The Beast Rider Posted July 7, 2009 Posted July 7, 2009 I meant post that fast. You must be reading this topic. I wish I could have ridden in 1979. I didn't come into coasters until the mid-80's. At least I got to experience the trimless rides. Quote
coaster_junky Posted July 8, 2009 Author Posted July 8, 2009 ^i do too, i wish i could have rode The Beast when it was still the tallest, fastest, and longest wooden roller coaster. Quote
DiamondbackLover Posted July 8, 2009 Posted July 8, 2009 Cool video. Never rode it, but it always seemed like a fun ride. Quote
WooferBearATL Posted July 9, 2009 Posted July 9, 2009 The Bat remains my favorite coaster of all time. Of all the rides that have come and gone, The Bat is the one I miss the most. Quote
