^Why not?? It worked for me and should for you if you're still in the UK. There was a little play button that took me a few minutes to see though

^^At first, I thought mine didn't work either, and there was this Danish line below. I went on translator and found out it means "Preparing video, please wait..." So I gave it another try, and it worked.

I was there while they were filming the video... I opted not to ride that fast spinning thing! When you hit the "boost" button that thing took off for about a minute of high speed looping! Of course when it stopped it always seemed to do a stall move and hang upside down for a few seconds, sending the blood to your head. Looking at that was enough to make me sick! I still have two weeks of parks to get through!

Today was Tivoli Gardens. The park was AWESOME! They treated us like royalty! (little do they know...heh, heh, heh....)

Our day started off with an hour ERT session on the "Rutchebanen" or the Scenic Railway...the classic traditional woodie built in 1914.

We then got to take a very in depth behind-the-scenes look at the ride, the work area, train shed, and climb all over the coaster...all while it was RUNNING!!!

We had some free time in the park and then was treated to another hour of ERT on Daemonen, the B&M floorless which could only be described as "cute." In fact, the ride is so cute that you just want to reach out and pet it.

But don't let it's cuteness fool you, it is very intense! It's almost like a "Floorless Batman."

After an hour riding, we had some local television crews with us to do interviews, etc and we got some ERT on Vertigo...the parks new INSANE flat ride that pulls 5 G's, flips you every way possible. It's just crazy.

Did I mention the park is insanely beautiful?

Anyway, onto the photos...

And, oh yeah, in case you missed the link on the last page, we made DANISH TV! Check it out:
