Here is what you've all been waiting for, the first ever video from the front seat of TTD during a roll back.

NOTE: These videos have never been seen before, they were posted for the first time at 2:00AM this morning. (It has been said that a video
of a roll back should never be seen, it should only be seen from the eyes of those who have had the privilege to actually experience one. So, if you don't want to know what a roll back is like, don't watch.

Enjoy

Yes, we all know that this breaking park rules but let that flee from your mind for just a little while so we can all have a chance to view these on-of-a-kind videos.

sorry to burst your bubble, but thats not the first POV roll back video, Some CBS morning show or something had one a long time ago.

^ Nope, that was looking at the people's faces, it wasn't a true POV. I know exactly what your talking about. It was that lady and Monty Jasper in the front seat on CBS early morning show.

The video looked real cool and it looks like fun to get a roll back. What is funnier getting a roll back or not getting a roll back. I hope I get a roll back when I go to the park next spring.:)

It would make for an interesting ride, i'd think. It's a pretty basic ride to begin with, so anything different would be an experience.

What worked for me was to right-click on the original link and then choose "Save Target As...". I did that and just got done watching it. It's kinda cool, but it's at night and the camera is pretty rough, so you can't see much.

Before I download this video, can I at least ask if this video was made legally? Did you ask park management and the rideops if you could endanger people's lives, I mean take your camera on the coaster to videotape the ride?

..yeah because all the park guests standing on the track waveing at the video cam is such a bad thing! :rolleyes:
i dont think anyone on this site took the viedeo.. its from a site not based in the US...

So I was strolling through the ThrillNetwork [url=http://www.thrillnetwork.com/tos.php/messageboards]TOS[/url] the other day, when I noticed this little tidbit:

[QUOTE=Terms of Use]Any discussion in the forums, chat, or any other part of the site that encourages the breaking of any park/coaster rules, has the potential to result in the harm of any individuals/groups of people, and/or may potentially violate any local, state, and/or federal law(s) are not allowed. [/quote]

Darn, I guess I have to close this thread.

This video is a violation of the rules of Cedar Point, and therefore discussing it is a violation of our TOS. ThrillNetwork does not at all condone any type of unsafe activity at amusement parks, and this includes bringing a camera on the ride.
