I've gotten a few comments regarding my use of stock footage. Some viewers liked it, while others said it took them out of the video and was distracting. I do not want my videos to turn off viewers, and my number one goal is listening to the fans. I meant for the stock footage to serve as an illustration to the emotional reactions of park guests to the rides' closures as well as comic relief. While I will not be reuploading again, I will aim on using a more moderate amount of stock footage In future videos. This was experimental and an attempt to try new techniques. I'm always happy to hear from my viewers when it comes to constructive criticism.

As a Virginian, losing Big Bad Wolf and Volcano hurts. I did get to enjoy them both multiple times. I have to give Verbolten it's props, though. I rode it bitterly, but when we hit the drop track and dropped to Big's old river drop, my face broke into a smile. It's a worthy successor.

King's Dominion better have something good up their sleeves to replace Volcano. It's has to be a launch coaster; something that has what Volcano was mixed with what HyperSonic could have been. While they're at it, they need to give a cosmetic update to Flight of Fear and bring Anaconda back to it's former glory. I love my park, but man it could be a superstar with the right changes.

Dueling Dragons was one of my favourite roller coasters, I was lucky enough to ride it when they had the dueling feature, it was so good! Broke my heart when they disabled the dueling feature and broke my heart when they tore it down 😣😣

1970s-90s rides: *Opened*
Parks in 2010s: I don't think so

The removal of dueling dragons is the biggest failure in the theme park industry.

I am going to be salty about dueling dragons for the rest of my life

Riding the Big Bad Wolf in the pitch dark was some of the best memories of my childhood. But Verbolten is a good successor!

The Big Bad Wolf was one of my all-time favorites. It was one of my first roller coasters that I rode where I was seated under the track. The thrill of riding through the village and across the lake was amazing. It will be missed.

Dueling Dragons was the BEST ride. I went to Universal a few times growing up and remember riding the coaster over and over, running (probably sideways from the dizziness) as soon as I got off to get in line again. I was so upset when I heard it was closing. No coaster compares to the weightless feel, thrill of the near-miss collisions, and gorgeous view on top of the coaster before the big, initial plummet.

I never got to ride Dueling Dragons, but I rode Hagrid's four days after it opened, and I really hope that the removal of Dueling Dragons doesn't prevent people from seeig how amazing of a ride Hagrid's is. While it's not as thrilling as it sounds like Dueling Dragons was, the ride feels absolutely incredible (and, as was said in the video, the theming is also amazing). Even though I'm very much a thrillseeker/adrenaline junkie, I literally cried after riding Hagrid's because of how amazing it felt. So I just hope everyone gives it a fair shot to get an unbiased opinion 💕

I always dreamed of riding Dueling dragons because I saw it on the movie “bring it on”, it’s so sad that I never rode it. :(

I went to The Wizarding World of Harry Potter for my honeymoon last September. The dueling dragons coaster was already gone, and Hagrid's Motorbike Adventure wasn't finished yet. I missed two great coasters due to bad timing. T_T

"Cedar Fair wanted to downsize Geagua Lake" that's one way to put it lol

[acidalex]

Duelling dragons was easily the best 2 inverts I’ve been on. Universal made such a bad decision:(.

Honestly it’s crazy to me that Anaconda is still around after Volcano.

[coastercafe]

Honestly, not getting to ride Volcano the Blast Coaster is one of my biggest regrets... :(

[Reiderreiter]

Somehow I completely missed the announcement of Volcano closing. So when it appeared on the #1 spot, I literally screamed. 💔

[Plizzy]

I went on the volcano at Kings Dominion. It was absolutely amazing at night. But definitely a lot of complications.

Volcano the Blast Coaster was terrifyingly exciting! Glad I got to ride it.
