The world's worst themed coasters.

Scott gets one in the definite category.

The cars are pretty funky though!

It's also been the scene of two fatal and tragic accidents!

Just look at this coaster
Theming obviously fake
Even the "sandy" harnesses don't look that convincing

And as a counter point, I highly recommended exploring the backstory of the land it sits in, because that gives the context for Primeval Whirl and the rest of the land.

In short, its a smart piece of satire.

Fixed the link but yes agreed, consider Primeval Whirl debunked! It forms part of a back story that I can actually imagine happening. According to that link, some of the subtlety of theme is actually extraordinary. Masking a fishing lodge into a restaurant - at some points I was reading it thinking, hang on, was this actually a fishing lodge before it was converted?
To go to that level of detail, to include even notes from students to each other, and those random chairs on the roof lol!
Ha! Clever. It may be garish beyond belief with an awful theme, but when it's part of the tapestry of the area and it was purposefully over the top, in the context of the story it's actually perfect.
I actually find it quite charming now!

I don't care how much clunky plot exposition they cram on to notice boards (that no one will ever read), the very idea that Disney installed not one, but TWO Reverchon spinning mice means the whole chain should be struck off the list of credible parks forever.

In fairness though, I hold my hand up to not realising the detail to the Dinoland theme. Doesn't stop the ride looking pants though![]()
I do agree it looks pants, but it's hard to include it in the "World's worst themed coasters" when it was designed to be exactly that and to compliment the existing area - which it does.

Objection sustained.
