A Day at a German Theme Park with Michael Jackson’s Children (Photo and Video)

Michael’s children, along with a number of their cousins, left Montreal for Germany on Wednesday, October 5, and stayed there for a few days. On October 6, they went to Phantasialand in the city of Brühl. It was the same place where, 15 years ago in 1996, their father had gone for fun and opened a ride.

Frauke says the kids behaved sensibly and modestly with her.

At the theme park hotel, Frauke had breakfast with them, and then they went to the theme park to ride the roller coaster that their father had opened and driven years ago.

Blanket was very worried and anxious, but Prince couldn’t wait to get on, and it seemed he had inherited this trait from his father—who had a lot of experience with roller coasters and rides like that.

For example, you might be surprised to know that Michael Jackson holds the world record for a 35-minute nonstop ride on the Zipper.

Prince: Don’t make it crowded. Don’t be scared. It just goes fast; it doesn’t spin. It’s like a motorbike ride. You like speed.

Blanket: But every time it scares me.

Frauke: Blanket is worried?

Blanket: Well... how many times does it spin?

Paris: This is the first time (Blanket) is riding it.

Blanket: No, it isn’t.

But Blanket wants to know how many times this roller coaster spins, which seems like a very funny question to Prince.

The roller coaster “Colorado Adventure – Thriller Ride Michael Jackson” starts up and screams and cries of help rise to the sky. But Blanket doesn’t enjoy it for long. He’s very scared, and the moment the roller coaster stops, he quickly jumps out of it as fast as he can.

Blanket: I almost got thrown out of the seat. I’m telling the truth. I was falling.

Prince: You’re crazy! Don’t make it crowded.

Frauke then showed them a video of their father at this theme park. Michael had come here on May 11, 1996 for the opening of the Colorado Adventure ride.

Colorado Adventure – The Michael Jackson Thrill Ride is the full name of this roller coaster, which is called one of the best ground roller coasters.

Michael also returned to this theme park on June 14, 1997 and rode the thrill ride again.

Frauke says Michael’s children were fascinated by the video.

On this trip, a private teacher also accompanied them, but when Frauke asked them whether school was better or the theme park, their answer was clear: of course, the theme park!

Frauke says that when she heard Paris scream on the roller coaster or saw Blanket and Prince’s jokes and banter, she thought they were normal kids—but that wasn’t the case. Wherever these three children of the biggest star in the world go, people stand and watch them.

Frauke: Do you like Germany, Paris?

Paris: Yes, I love Germany. We were here before, in Hamburg.

Frauke: Your father had a special relationship with Germany, didn’t he?

Paris: Oh yes.

Frauke: Which is better, Prince—school or Phantasialand?

Prince: This is better.

Frauke: But you have a teacher with you, right?

Prince: Yes, unfortunately.
