Busch Gardens Williamsburg (BGW BGE) Discussion Thread

^He pretty much spends the last half of that video explaining why it is legal. But I really don't want to take the chance it's not.
BTW, for those who have ridden it, how dark is it inside. I.E. can you see some of the other stuff in the building or is it truly pitch black.

[cfcI've gone pantless!]

I hope one of the mods check it out as I don't want to post it and risk getting in trouble on here if he is actually lying.

Wise choice.

I do recall reading that Busch might allow strapped on Gopro cameras with advance permission, though. Maybe Robb can shed some light on this.

[Pun_MachineWhat's with the donkeys anyway?]

^ it's pitch black with the exception of when they fire the strobes and selective lighting. You only see what they want you to for the most part

About that person who took a "legal" POV of Verbolten, I looked at his videos and he has been posting a lot of BGW videos. Though, on one of the videos I saw this:

Footage courtesy of Theme Park Review

Now, I don't think he asked permission to use that.

Anyways, from watching that POV, the dark ride portion didn't have as much theming that I thought it would be and it looks kind of cheap.

I'll only watch the POVs for the outside portions. I refuse to let the inside be ruined just two weeks out! I've waited this long, I can wait until then!

ADMIN EDIT - LINK REMOVED!

Going to remove the link for now. I have contacted the park to ask them if this was in fact an approved video. If they respond saying the video is approved, I will put the link back up.

^So you think that video is legal. That solves that mystery (I think).
Anyways I've seen video of Gerta but not Gunter. Does he make an appearance somewhere in the que?

[cfcI've gone pantless!]

All these silly "bragging rights" early POVs are as annoying as someone who goes around spoiling the ending of a movie.

[Intimidator305Challenge me at Donkey Kong...I dare ya!]

Here's another on-ride taken today

Yeah that's the one I was referring to.

And yes, the big competition of getting the first POV always happens when a new coaster opens. When the park or major website (like TPR) doesn't post a POV, the first "illegal" ones always get a ton of views!

Gunter is no where to be seen.... ...... His office is empty with his experiments and kameras looking into the depths of the forest.
