Well, I didn't think these existed but...I found these POVs of 2 historic and classic wooden coasters! :) First up...the Coney Island Thunderbolt, which operated from 1925-1983, was SBNO 1983-2000, and then demolished. I can't post the videos directly into here but here's the link...

(Yep, flickr does videos now it seems...)

And...now we get REALLY REALLY OLD- The Tornado Bobs! This ride opened in 1926, but was burned in 1977 and never re-opened...

These videos by swampfoxer, not me. Enjoy.

    Noticed these about a week ago--they're awesome. I didn't know POV video of the Thunderbolt existed online, and I certainly never expected POV video of the Bobs to have even been filmed, let alone made available! Thanks for sharing them here, McSalsa.

    They just don't make 'em like that anymore!
