Magnum: Love it or Hate it? Cedar Point Summer 2023 Vlog

The fact that you guys are actively creating new content at new parks in Europe while also making time to edit and upload daily videos is incredible. It really shows your work ethics and passion. It’s inspiring.

I worked at Cedar Point the year they opened Magnum. They would occasionally open a ride or a part of the park after hours for employee events. As a result, I ended up riding Magnum about 50 times that summer. It was a fun time. Regarding the bugs. I believe they were Muffleheads. I worked in games near the front of the park. For the few weeks the bugs were heavy, we had to spend a fair amount of time picking the bugs out of the stuffed animals. Not the most pleasant way to spend your time but it was a job. :)

I was literally next in line for Valravn when it got stopped for the prosthetic leg! Makes sense why they can't ride with it on, but the whole station was in shock. I also thought it was a cell phone at first! Took about 20 minutes to reset everything/cycle trains and then we were on.

Magnum is the ride that got me into coasters and I will always love that thigh crushing airtime on the last hills

I appreciate Jacob Letting ‘Em Know. Go Cavs!

I was there the day before you came. My first time back since riding my first coaster at age 12, so basically all major credits were new for me. SteVe and Maverick blew me away, Millennium Force was a great candidate for my 75th credit even though their ops were absolutely trash all day. In the closing hour of the park, their dispatches were like 5 minutes. As for Magnum, I loved it. It's rough but I didn't mind it, and the ejector on the return section was as amazing as everyone says in the Magic Seat. Also I don't get the hate on Valravn. Rode in the front on the end and it was so much fun.

Magnum XL 200 is the coaster that made me an enthusiast! I'll never forget my first ride almost 20 years ago, in 2004. Scared me when I was 8 back then, but grew to love it!

Love Magnum! Worked it for three unforgetable summers and it will always be my favorite!

Magnum is severely underrated. The airtime on it is really good in the magic seat and in the back row.

Just went to Cedar point a couple weeks ago for the first time. Steel vengeance was amazing as predicted so was Maverick. As for Magnum, I had an awful experience. I rode in the back row and I’m over 5 foot nine so I was not having a good time. It didn’t start out too bad, but on the air time hills at the end, the air time was incredible, but I dreaded it because every single time I would get slammed up and down and it felt like we were hitting potholes after pothole. Will not be riding again. However, I want to come back to this park ASAP.

I just came from CP! Wild Mouse was down. 😢

It’s my home park! Love it when you guys visit the parks close to my house!

My home park! I haven't been there since 2018 when my work sponsored a trip there. Boy, do I miss it. Glad to hear y'all had a good visit! Thanks for taking time to share a little footage to remind me I need to get up there soon :).

its good to see you upload this due to me going to cedar point in a few weeks for 3 park days i believe, glad to see the state of the park before my first visit

I just went in May for my senior trip and here’s my ranking!(sadly I didn’t get to do the wild mouse) 1: Steel Vengeance-just solid, the part where you go inside the structure was absolutely insane!!! 2: Maverick-could easily be swapped with vengeance as number one, my dad and I rode it, not knowing anything about it, so we were definitely shocked about the launch😂 3: Millennium Force- Such a fun ride, overhated imo, that music in the station tho>>> 4: Magnum-I was on the row 4, everyone in my party except me hated it but I loved it!! Those hills were super intense!!! 5: Raptor- My first ever invert, I didn’t expect it to be intense, but that helix at the end proved me wrong💀 6: Gemini- I love dueling rides and this one surprised me, super fun, the station was cool too! 7: Gatekeeper- idk I love wing coasters, it’s tied atm with Wild Eagle but that might change when I go back to Dollywood! 8: Rougarou- If it wasn’t for my head turning into a pinball, this would be higher, still fun tho. 9: Valravn- My first time on a dive coaster, I have a funny story out of it, the first drop scared the life out of me😅 10: Blue Streak- We got put in the back row so it was a little painful but it was still really fun for its age! 11: Iron Dragon- nothing special, but it was still fun, never been on one like that before! 12: Corkscrew- got stuck in the back row, the restraints crushed my thighs, my head was whacked around, the only way to enjoy this ride is to watch it from the sidewalk. 13: Cedar Creek Mine Ride- “ow, ow, OW, OW, OH MY GOSH OW, OW, THIS CRAP HURTS.” -Me and my friend 2023

Magnum will always be a sentimental favorite. Rode it opening year 1989 and was instantly hooked. Now I get to enjoy it with my husband and daughter!

I went to CP yesterday. I was shocked at how bad the operations were. Especially Millennium Force and Gatekeeper. Spent 10 minutes on the break run of gatekeeper. Magnum and Raptor were the only rides that didn’t stack every cycle.

Mantis was an amazing Stand up. Also had very quick operations, minus the slow lift lol

Didn't like it my first time but it has grown on me ever since and have come to love it!

I went on it yesterday went from loving it to hating it It would be great if cp got new lap bars
