Nitro or Apollo's Chariot POV

Does anyone know where I can get a video (preferably good) of Nitro or Apollo's Chariot.  I'd rather have one of Nitro.  I've searched all over the web and the search engine here isn't working, and I havn't found anything.  Thank you

Screaming "yeah!" can be better than having the guy scream in a high pitched voice...

Yeah, it gets pretty annoying. He starts up right after the third drop. I was gonna say something about in my first post, but I didn't know if that guy that recorded it was on this board or not.:)

Maybe I'm just not remembering it, but is that a trim brake on the way up the thurd hill (after the tunnel)?  If it is, I don't remember it being there.

Yes, It's a trim brake and it was there when I rode it not too long ago. I don't understand why they have it because the third hill is bigger than the second. It slows you down alot, but you float out of your seat sometimes. When did you ride it? Maybe they just put it on.

I rode it during its first year of operation in 1999.  Can't remember if it was July or August.  Maybe its just my senility, but I don't remember it! :)

It's new this season. I rode it in 2000 and
there was no brake there.

He could very well be a member of this board, but he's still got an annoying "scream", shall we call it?  :o)  Either way, it doesn't mean that he's a bad guy, or I wouldn't get along with him.  Plus, add in the fact that he's ridden an incredible coaster that I have not.  :o(

I thought that video of Nitro was great.  I especially liked the little window in the corner of the off-ride action.

ST chick...are you talking about that "I was on the Discovery Channel..." girly man that goes by the name Dan?

Just playing Dan, that was very well done. :)

Hey Alex, that POV of Apollo's is nice, but I'm guessing that you did a super spy job there like I've done in the past.. when you neared the station, the camera went away in short order..  am I wrong?  ;)
