UPDATE: Six Flags is investigating a video from the YouTube channel CoasterDash, featuring the content creator’s ride on the wooden roller coaster Grizzly at Kings Dominion. The video appears to show the lap restraints in an unsafe, elevated position as the riders say “shoutout to the ride op.” Six Flags has released an updated statement following a report from Entertainment Weekly: “The safety of our guests and team members is our highest priority. We are aware of a video circulating online that we believe was recorded at Kings Dominion in August. The behavior shown in the video raises serious safety concerns and does not reflect how our attractions are intended to be experienced. In addition, handheld recording devices are strictly prohibited for safety reasons. We are reviewing the footage to better understand what occurred and determine whether any further action is warranted. Based on our records, no injuries or guest complaints were reported in connection with the ride experience. Six Flags maintains rigorous ride safety procedures, and our ride operators are trained to ensure all safety requirements are met before a ride is dispatched. Safety is a partnership, and we also expect all guests to follow posted safety guidelines and the instructions of our team members at all times.”

A thoosie YouTuber with over 80k subs, CoasterDash, just posted a video in which he promotes riding @SixFlags's/@KingsDominionVA's wooden coaster, Grizzly, in a WILDLY and OBVIOUSLY dangerous manner. Original video is still live on his YouTube channel, but 🖼️ & 📽️ just in case:

I cannot believe they actually purchased a web domain for this ITM joke 😂

This is now number one bucket list coaster for me
After hearing about the closure of X2 at Six Flags Magic Mountain, we had to make sure we stopped by Dinosaurs Land in Changzhou today to ride the Dino Conda 4D coaster! This coaster is still freaking intense and rough, but not as head-banging as X2! Located just 46-minute bullet train ride from Shanghai. Love the theming! The only downside is the extremely slow dispatch! They are sending out a train every 12–14 minutes, which means they are only running about 4-5 trains per hour! So, if you miss X2, there are only 2 places left in the world where you can get your 4D coaster fix: China & Japan! 🎢🐍

Blue Streak is Cedar Point oldest roller coaster! During this particular day in July 2026, it made for some extra memorable rides with the smoke and the tangerine colored sky as a byproduct of the Canadian wildfires. #Cedarpoint #ptc #bluestreak #woodcoaster

I always feel like when making a universal video that I just like to film whatever really interests me and is the highlights of the day since the resort has been filmed to death… so here’s that video of randomness across three days! youtu.be/bmnJWSTv_x8

Timberhawk has now closed along with the entirety of Wild Waves Theme & Water Park 😢 This was the 1st of 4 wood coasters built by S&S and the last remaining in the United States. Designed by Dennis McNulty, it opened in 2003 and operated for 23 years. #Seattle #woodcoaster

I had to save the release of this video for Halloween! Philly’s Lincoln Mill Haunted House is one of the best we’ve ever been through. It is also terrifying & a marathon lasting nearly 20 minutes! youtu.be/2GQ9624GZGw

Six Flags hurricane Harbor in Mexico does a fright fest that’s weird… but it also makes sense because that park is like an hour south of Six Flags Mexico

Correction, it’s more like 90 minutes between the two parks
