DegenRider Posted February 9, 2004 Share Posted February 9, 2004 This is not PKI related in any way shape or form but this video from Themeparkreview.com is just great. Ever heard of Manhattan Express? Well if not heres the RCDB link on it. Click Here But anywho its a togo from the same folks who brought us King Cobra RIP. But This ride makes KC's Nut Crushing look like fun. Heres a link to get the video Click here to download the video From Themeparkreview Also at the end they talk about this being worse than Windjammer. WindJammer was a ride that like its name got jammed up in the wind. It was at Knotts Berry Farm and couldn't operate with winds over 10mph. It was a racing coaster that when it was dissassembled there was no tears shed as it was ripped limb from limb for scrap. Heres some windjammer Photos from RCDB Anywho That ride was replaced with the 1st Rocket Coaster Xcelerator but the video of ME is a very funny one.

SOB/Gun Steve-O Posted February 10, 2004 Share Posted February 10, 2004 I was in Vegas right after Christmas and rode Manhattan Express down there. It was cold as ^#$*. Pretty good ride, but a little rough for a steel coaster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xUsexYourxFistx Posted February 10, 2004 Share Posted February 10, 2004 (edited) I've never heard anybody cuss so much...At least not since I rode Son of Beast last year..Is it weird that it gives me cramps in my legs everytime?!

PKICoasterFreek Posted February 10, 2004 Share Posted February 10, 2004 Geez! I have ridden the Manhatten Express tons of times and it doesn't hurt at all! I don't know the guy but, i think he either was very afraid(the ride extremely tame) or he is a coaster phobe, cause it is not the bad at all, and someone need to wash there mouth out with some stronge soap.If i ever said things like that, i would get slapped up side the head. Manhatten Express is in no reason a bad coaster, and is NOT rough at all. The only thing that might hurt on you after the ride has ended is maybe your shoulder because the hang out upside down for a couple of seconds on the "Twist and Dive" section of the ride, but thats about it. Its really a great ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DegenRider Posted February 10, 2004 Author Share Posted February 10, 2004 ^ you must be on crack. Robb alvey rides coasters all around the world. Thus the name theme park review. You must be a VERY Rich man to pay 12.50 to ride MANY TIMES! You can tell by the video how rough it is. It may have been fun when its new but its just painful now.

HelixSpiral Posted February 10, 2004 Share Posted February 10, 2004 Robb alvey rides coasters all around the world. While recording them, usually against the rules of the park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbalvey Posted February 10, 2004 Share Posted February 10, 2004 (edited) ^ Gee...where have I heard that before? The last time I rode ME (about 6 years ago when it was only $7) it really wasn't that rough...but NOW...OMG!!! It's bad....REALLY bad. --Robb "Don't go preaching rumors as fact...it only makes you sound like a bigger idiot!"

PkiJake13 Posted February 11, 2004 Share Posted February 11, 2004 (edited) I think he probably knows what he's doing. He's not making anymore video's becoause of people who didn't like him filming on the rides. Jake And I liked the video I thought it was really funny.

Aaron Posted February 11, 2004 Share Posted February 11, 2004 ^Â Gee...where have I heard that before? Apparently not enough. There's no need to bash Robb, he's a nice guy, and makes some great videos. Just let the parks do their thing. Anyways, many of the parks give Rob permission to videotape the rides.

robbalvey Posted February 11, 2004 Share Posted February 11, 2004 (edited) Actually I stopped making videos because of people like the guy three posts up that started making MY business...HIS buisness...when he has no idea what he's talking about. It had nothing to do with me filming on rides. It's ok, though....posts like his make it a lot easier to pick out the stupid people in a crowd! --Robb "Who doesn't like it when people make up sh*t about him" Alvey Edited January 1, 1970 by robbalvey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DegenRider Posted February 11, 2004 Author Share Posted February 11, 2004 (edited) This isn't coasterbuzz or RRC and theres no need for that. Robb is a very nice guy. He does obtain permission and follow all other park rules. He has even removed photos where he did do stuff wrong. Theres no need to ignight the witch hunt again. Theres no need to feed the Trolls on RRC and CB about this argument. I agree that camera policys should be enforced. But do not attack them here on the site. Can't we just all get along? This was a funny video and it was posted by me for the comedy about it. Like its been said too hes not gonna make the videos available. Unless someone can prove me wrong I don't think ME has a camera policy. Pat has purchased 2 of his video and payement is pending when the IRS fricking sends my refund check that was going to be in the bank on the 6th GRR! It is his buisness if your on his ride and doing though. Just playing devils advocate here. Edited January 1, 1970 by sobrider Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StXBomber Posted February 11, 2004 Share Posted February 11, 2004 I found the video very amusing. And we all know TOGO is famous for crappy coasters. I was laughing the whole way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sobgun Posted February 11, 2004 Share Posted February 11, 2004 Why is everyone making this into a big deal. The truth is if the Mod. didnt post about another park/coaster this would have NEVER happened!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron Posted February 11, 2004 Share Posted February 11, 2004 I didn't know people were making this into a big deal? Just sounds like sound discussion to me... anyways, that's a freaking hilarious video Robb. I have watched it multiple times and laugh harder each time... I think hear something about "anal sheep sex" or something of the sort? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DegenRider Posted February 11, 2004 Author Share Posted February 11, 2004 (edited) ^^ I posted it cause most people thought it was funny! It was for comedic purposes since we need something to laugh at in the off season! Plus if you want to get in specific detail the video is related to PKI since TOGO built King Cobra along with Manhattan Express.

AZ Kinda Guy Posted February 11, 2004 Share Posted February 11, 2004 (edited) Ok I'm going to throw in my two cents here.... On the video, it's frickin hillairious. I laughed my ass off. I have several of Robbs videos myself and they are very good and very funny. He does what he does with park permission. Whatever floats your boat I say! Nice to see you posting here Robb! I hope you stick around! Edited January 1, 1970 by AZ Kinda Guy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
