The twelfth part in this series has us visiting Himeji Central Park, home of several coasters including Diavlo, a B&M inverted Batman: The Ride clone. Despite the incredible heat and humidity, this day ended up being one of my favorites of the entire tour. No crowds. Great staff and fun rides. The second part of our day included a powerful stop to view the awe inspiring Himeji Castle.

If I am being honest, this day wasn't my favorite on the trip. The heat was too extreme to be waiting in outdoor queues at Universal Studios Japan so our visit was short, resulting in the shortest video of this series. Also, I had the dates listed wrong in the first ten parts of this series. I am sure many of you didn't notice but this one starts on July 4th. Part 10 stated on July 2nd when it should have been July 3rd.

While the search for spas showed no results, fear not as there were plenty of rides to be ridden. I opted to not ride as much on this visit to the park to concentrate on recording video and just taking it slower. Having said that, I did get in several rides on two amazing coasters, Steel Dragon and Hakugei, to balance everything out. Correct date of recording was July 3rd, not the 2nd as stated at start of video.

While Vince and Antony opted to arrive at the park earlier than Marty and I, we all met up later in the day to take one final ride on Splash Mountain. This visit was also important as this would be the very last time any of us would be able to ride Space Mountain. The indoor coaster closed for good on July 31st, just a few weeks after our visit. A new version of Space Mountain is scheduled to open in 2027. We also got to take our first rides on Beauty and the Beast. Unfortunately, the original upload of this video provided me with copyright infringement notice for the music played during a ride so a copyright-free music selection now replaces it.

Taking a park-free day every once in a while on a tour like this really resets the energy. At least it did for our group. Needless to say, we still were out and about checking out attractions like temples, Tokyo Sky Tree and Shibuya Crossing at night.

Raptor opened on May 7th, 1994 and is one of the few coasters responsible for my coaster "career" as it introduced me to the incredible engineering and ride quality of Bolliger & Mabillard (B&M) coasters. The footage in this video was among the very first stuff I recorded with my Sony HDR-HC1 camcorder that I purchased in Japan a month prior. For the 30th anniversary of Raptor, I decided to edit this short video and render it in HDR and 60fps for a smoother and more vivid playback.

#B&M #coastertrack #rollercoasters #60fpsSuperman: Ultimate Escape - Six Flags Ohio - October 2000Sean Flaharty2024-03-27 | This video was recorded in October of 2000 during a normal operating park day and one when the park was closed and a commercial shoot took place. We were asked by the park to be extra riders for the shoot. During the shoot, a small remote control helicopter, with an attached camera, zoomed through the loading station and close to the train to get some incredible looking shots. During a break between filming, the staff at the park allowed us to get up close with the train sitting in the station for a few minutes. We were told we could record anything as long as we didn't hit any buttons or mess with the train. The ride wasn't able to operate during this time so we were in no danger. This was recorded during a time when rules were more relaxed than they are today. I wouldn't see a situation when a park would allow that in more recent times.
Six Flags Ohio had a bizarre photo and video policy. While they didn't allow anyone to record on rides, which is understandable, there were times when I visited where you weren't allowed to record video inside the queue or in a loading station. I remember a couple times when I was yelled at by park staff for recording Superman while standing on the midway and not in any off-limits area. Just on the main midway. The reason I mention this is because if you listen closely, you can hear a ride operator trying to get my attention by yelling at me while in the station of Superman during a normal operating day. This was the first instance of my encounter with the seemingly made up rule. Anytime it happened to me after this, I would head to guest relations and ask what their policy was. They seemed just as confused as I was. Very strange indeed.

Instead of doing a quick-time lapse, I decided to just allow this video to play in real time to show the dispatch process for the coaster.

I have always been a fan of big bridges. I think my love for roller coasters started when I started learning about bridges and trains. A roller coaster is kind of a mix of both of those. While I have been to New Orleans several times, I have never had the time to drive across the causeway. I fixed that on March 2nd, 2024 by recording this time-lapse POV. Sure, it was a foggy day, but I enjoyed every minute of crossing that bridge. I only did the northbound side.

During the process, my friend Josh Gardner and I started talking about coasters and amusement parks. The topic of flying scooters (flyers) came up and we tried to explain to my tattoo artist (Dave Tevenal) what flyers actually are and what snapping is. Please keep in mind that this video was recorded in 2010 during a time when more parks encouraged snapping. Due to more recent versions of the ride being produced by a more modern manufacture, snapping isn't as widely accepted as it once was. I had originally made a time-lapse video of the tattoo being done but removed the video years ago due to some music I used in it. Recorded on a Sony HDR-HD1. Rendered in 60fps and HDR for a smoother, more vivid, playback.
