Back around 1975, my wife and I went to Knott's Berry Farm. They had a brand new roller coaster ride called "Cork Screw". By today's standards, it was pretty mild. But, the ending was anything but routine. I could smell the brakes. I knew that smell from my car. Anyway, as the ride was ending and we were approaching the load/unload platform, the brakes had almost no effect and we went flying past the platform at a pretty good speed. The look on the ride operator's face as we flew by was a clue that something wasn't right. Then we made a hard 180 degree right turn that took us to the long uphill ramp - again. Somehow, they figured out what happened and the brakes actually worked on our second approach to the platform. As we were disembarking, the operator then announced, "thank-you for riding the Cork Screw TWICE tonight!"

I also remember going to Disneyland and a beach for the first time too. I remember the beach looked crazy and huge. Great memories!

Ghostrider was always my favorite ride at Knotts since I was a kid. Unfortunately I've always been a bigger guy. And the last time I went to the park which was quite a while ago now since I don't live near there anymore I couldn't fit on it unfortunately. The divider in the seat to separate riders was too small. But I will always have my memories, and now this video to look back on.

It was a ride not to be forgotten. It was so rickety at that time. I wanted to ride it on my 60th birthday in June but she said no and is taking me on Jaguar instead 😂

Walt Disney wasn't influenced by Walter Knott. Knott's Berry Farm didn't become an amusement park until the late 1960's and early 1970's. Walt Disney died in 1966.
