Anybody know of a site where you can find a POV video of Flight of Fear? I haven't seen a POV video of any fully enclosed coasters yet (since they are rare) so if anybody knows of a site where I can find a Flight of Fear POV (or Mayan Mindbender or any other enclosed coaster) then give me a link. Thanks.

I have seen a Flight of Fear POV, but it is on a video called America's Greatest Roller Coaster Thrills 2 in 3-D (1996). The POV is pretty bad because the ride is indoors, and dark so you can't see anything but black, but you hear the effects. A website that mentions the video is below.

I've seen a POV of the California version of Revenge of the Mummy. It's not the exactly what you're looking for, but it is an indoor rollercoaster. I'll see if I can dig it up for you

nogodforme.com has Mummy POVs to back up swimace if you are just looking to see if there are indoor POVs out there. As you will be able to tell, the quality gets progressivly better with them

Thanks, I couldn't remember where I saw it. If you want something that is more like Flight of Fear, www.onride.de has a POV video of Rock'n Roller Coaster at Disney Studios in Paris.

HEY!
I just got America's Greatest Rollercoasters Thrills in 3-d 2 and 3 plus World's greatest rollercoaster thrills.
For $10 including shipping and handling off ebay. Man, I feel lucky.
The Flight of Fear segment of the video. I was dissapointed. They used a night-vision camera and well, you're right, I didn't see too much. Maybe I'm gonna learn how to make a point of view video and see for myself.
Anyway, anybody here live in Virginia especially in Richmond, Mechanicsville, Ashland, and Glen Allen area? I'm planning to hit Six Flags America, Kings Dominion, and Busch Gardens non-stop next year, I'd like to go with some of you hardcore coaster fans.

I may possibly visit Busch Gardens Williamsburg and Paramount's Kings Dominion, but it's not a definite.

By looking at your parks list, I'm sure you don't live in Virginia King Yoshi.
I'm mainly looking for a theme park buddy who's passionate about theme parks as I am. My buddies like to go to clubs every week, but they aren't into theme parks as much as I am.
