@GoodAlwaysDieYoung Yep, i really dont like the new cement boardwalk though. All they have to do is fix up the wood a little bit.

I live in Brooklyn,New York for 10 years now.I walk across Brighton Beach all the way to Coney Island.It is not the same.Alot of repair is goinhg on before Summer Season.

DARN SAFETY REGULATIONS!!!!! I'd give anything to go to Coney Island during the '40s or before. Ferris wheels...with moving, swinging carts...the great spinny disk...and whatever the heck all the rest were, they seem much better than what we have today!

WOW. I'm glad I'm living now and not then! But it would be interesting to walk through one of the streets of Coney Island in the forties. Just one time and then get back to 2012:)

@hurrycoool even now..if you go to any beach you will not see many blacks. All my black friends think I'm nuts to want to go and sit on the beach..they go on the boardwalks and into the casinos but they dont go to sit on the beach!

what about the smallest giant and the tallest midget ?? =ô

@hurrycool There were black people there, if you look closely. You mostly see them in the footage of the rides

@hurrycoool of course no blacks... they wouldn't be caught dead seen hanging around the guinea's and micks. you boob, why always a schmuck like you making it a racial thing. look close and you'll see a mix of everyone! and btw, if you didn't catch it, schmuck is a jewish term. every immigrant and native spent their dimes here. the city was more discriminating, but every class and race was welcome and rubbed elbows at coney island!!!

@explodingboy21 I'm pretty sure it was the Human Pool Table.
