View HD footage of the rides and roller coasters of Holiday World & Splashin' Safari, Indiana's largest amusement park and water park! Opened in 1946 by founder Louis Koch, Holiday World started under the name "Santa Claus Land" and was one of the first theme parks in the world. Due to the start of Santa Claus Land, the small town of Santa Claus, Indiana finally had an area where children can meet Santa Claus. In 1984, Halloween & Fourth of July areas were added and Santa Claus Land was renamed "Holiday World". 1984 also brought Frightful Falls, the park's log flume, which became one of the largest rides at the park. Splashin' Safari opened in 1993 with Congo River, Crocodile Isle, Bamboo Shoot, and Amazoom as the first attractions in its first year of operation. In 1995, Holiday World opened Raven, their first large-scale roller coaster, a 80' wooden coaster with nearly half a mile of track length. In 2000, an even larger wooden roller coaster was built: The Legend. The Legend focuses more on lateral turns rather than airtime hills, which the Raven possess more of. 2006 brought the largest additions to Holiday World at its time with the introduction of a new holiday themed area: Thanksgiving. To celebrate this great holiday and the 60th anniversary of Holiday World, the park introduced Voyage and Gobbler Getaway. The Voyage was the third wooden roller coaster that Holiday World built and is one of the tallest, longest, and best wooden roller coasters in the world. Holiday World started to break records in the water ride division by Pilgrim's Plunge in 2009, the world's tallest ride, and Wildebeest in 2010, the world's longest water "coaster". Holiday World beat Wildebeest's record in 2012 with the introduction of Mammoth, which is still the world's longest water coaster in the world. In 2015, Holiday World will open its largest attraction, Thunderbird, a B&M launched wing coaster and is the first large steel coaster that Holiday World ever built. This video showcases the many areas and attractions of Holiday World and even shows the current state of Pilgrim's Plunge and Thunderbird.
