Once, I brought my friend (she is now my step sister,) to go on this ride, when we fell down that big bump, she literally screamed her ass off, and passed out. This was October of 2017. She was scared shitless! She even pissed herself once when we went on it! But it was a great experience, I would like to go again! (This was at the same amusement park that they are showing in this video!)
I LOOOOVE THE COMET! I like it because it’s one of the only coasters in six flags ny that doesn’t go upside down.(I have a HUGE fear of going upside down.😂😂. Yes I know. I’m a scaredy-cat.)
My first coaster when it was in Crystal Beach Ontario, Canada. One day, my friends and I rode 50+ times in the day and got a button for doing it! Let the good times Roll!!!
I used to love that ride. I'm 50, in my 30's I ended up with back and neck pain from it for a few weeks. Havnt been able to ride it since. Doesn't help come to find out. I have spine issues, but I've rode this coaster about 30 times before that. It was from riding the front or ear car that hurt.
The Comet started its life at Crystal Beach in Ontario. Growing up in Buffalo it was a right of passage to ride the comet. The year my parents said I was old enough to ride I couldnt wait! Since then every time I rode it I would still get excited when it was climbing up the first big hill. Such a smooth coaster that never dissapoints. So glad ot got a new life in Lake George. Im in California now so probably Ill never see her again. Anyone that can ride the comet do so, its awesome
@Theme Park Review Thank you for the best front seat POV ride of The Comet on YouTube! "Hello Mr. Comet, how are ya?" I say that line for you every time I'm on the ride!!

People only talk about airtime because they read about it on the Internet
I have a story

Why does the commentary some exactly like the one for Yankee Cannonball?😂
The great escape is next to Martha’s ice cream and the water park wave pool on the right
One of the best coasters, certainly the best wooden coaster I've been on.
Best ride ever
I rode this
1;53 YAY the ride stopped in the middle of nowhere! How mamy beers had u had by this point?
This is a very under rated wooden coaster. I don't know why people don't talk about this coaster more. This was also my 100th coaster.
I love the comet one of the wildest coasters I have been on

How fast does this go?
I rode the comet back in the late 70's early 80's. Must of taken a lot of work to take it down and reassemble it for use. Good job!

This coaster really used to book it. Sadly it seems it's been sterilized now, based on more recent videos. Barely makes it around the corners.
“Hello Mr. Comet, how are you?!?” Lol
I absolutely love the Comet! Thanks for sharing. ♥️
The comet belongs at crystal beach canada so sad
I can feel a headache starting just watching this lol~ comet is so hard for me to ride.
I live 30 minutes from here. It’s super fun
This was my first ever real roller coaster and I loved it and went on around 8 times and almost you know pooped myself the first time
I love Great Escape's classic Comet!
Six Flags Great Escape isn't good enough for this classic
"I haven't done it in the back before."
I rode this with my cousin when I was 12 it was rad had a funny photo for my mom
You know a coaster is good when the guys at TPR say it's good!
I've rode this alot in Hersheypark when I lived in Pennsylvania

The craziness, fastest, bumpiest wooden roller coaster in NY
