There’s a documentary about this called Class Action Park that’s absolutely wild. They interview a bunch of former employees, and I can’t emphasize enough to people who don’t remember it how much the attitudes described epitomized a large portion of 80s and 90s youth culture in America. Which was simultaneously rad and a fucking nightmare, because so much of it was synonymous with just being a reckless shithead, lol.

I just finished watching that after seeing your comment. Damn, that was really interesting.

I grew up going to a similar, but seemingly much less dangerous (I assume..) park here in Australia called Jamberoo which looks like it’s still open. Like looking into a weird dangerous alternate reality world lol
