Bob Ross takes a ride on Orion!

[IndyGuy4KI]

Kings Island amusement park near Cincinnati, Ohio, doesn’t open until May 15, but that didn’t stop them from testing out their new Orion giga coaster this week, with a few special guests.

The ride voted 2020’s “Best New Amusement Park Attraction” by USA TODAY readers, plunges guests (and Bob Ross) down an exhilarating 300-foot drop before sending them on a high-speed journey over seven more hills at speeds up to 91 mph. Racing along 5,321 feet of track, it is Kings Island’s tallest and fastest roller coaster.

And, if you’re wondering, these Bob Ross plush are available as prizes for select Kings Island midway games during the 2021 Season.  More information can be found on the amusement park’s website at www.visitkingsisland.com

LOL that reminds me of what Walibi Holland did last year. Also LOL at the ones hanging to the side towards the back.

Wouldn't airtime make them come out of the seat?  The plush dolls have no legs.

If you look closely, you can see the new track on Racer!

It's cute. I wish the editing was more focused on just the bobs and not the off ride.

@Kyle Kruthoffer were those guys zip tied into the seats or just the seat belts and clamshell restraints holding them in?

“So my kid is 1” too short and can’t ride when it’s unsafe but you clearly can put 1’ plus dolls on the ride and they came back just fine?” 
I can just see it now. 

 

Cool and fun video none the less!

Maybe Bob Ross also recently painted a silhouette of Orion over a landscape in heaven. May he rest in peace.
