Hey guys so I was at this years ace winterfest which was at seaworld San Antonio, I have a video about it but anyways uhm after the presentation there was a box with a yellow feather that chuck had asked ray about and both of them had no clue what it was, they looked in the box and closed it but nothing really said about it. But the year was 2025 if I remember correctly. So it’s very interesting that all of this stuff is getting announced now. But all in all your ideas are all great and we shall see what the parks do.

SeaWorld San Antonio should build some more animal exhibits, another looping roller coaster, and a dark ride.

well the secret is out for sure. some of those rides would be a great addition for rescue junior. There is definitely enough land for a third gate. If a third gate was to be built, it would mean a commitment for renewing the Sesame Street contract. PLUS the SWSA new park president use to be the president at Sesame Place! I would love to sea, (did you see what I did there) Discovery point expanded and add more animal interactions. One thing is sure, next year is gonna be great!

I think the plot of land behind Steel Eel is the best spot for a Sesame Place. The area by Discovery Point is too hilly for a theme park. If anything, that area should be saved for an onsite hotel atop the hill where the flagpole is. Could you imagine the views it would have of the parks?

Great vlog! This is one of my closest parks and i love it so im glad you had a great time!!

I went there and the scariest ride ks sea dragon😮

So close about the Steel Force sign. Actually they were going to call Mantis Banshee but the public felt it was offensive so they changed the name and sent the sign to Dorney. They kept the image but changed the name to Steel Force. However Cedar Fair still had the rights to the Banshee name and eventually used it at Kings Island.

I'm a Moana fan 😁😁😁

Hello Brittany 🙂

Hi Brittany I was in Mrs Callahans class Mrs Callahan is sweet

It is part of the merlin franchise and they are very strict on what you can and can't film. Other parks include alton towers, all of the lego parks, Chessington world of adventures just to name a few.

this deserves more views! thank you! the VHS footage from back in the day really makes it!

Been to towers years ago too far to come as I live near Blackpool glad u both enjoyed. Nemish reborn I wish I could go it I went on air now glatica I loved it was my first big coster I went on try icon and hiperia and stelth other big rides in the UK and don't try infusion it's a head banger

Awesome video. Towers is my home park and it's great so see your first impressions of it. The footage from '94 really took me back to a very important year In the parks history. Curse has been such a fantastic addition to the park although I am biased it is absolutely my favourite dark ride.

The retro footage 🔥

A great video you guys have done at Thorpe Park, I had to watch it as I'm visiting next Friday, it's a 3 hour drive from my house. Can't wait to get on Hyperia too.

Wow its so great to see what first time visitors think of Alton Towers, as Coasterfest has said we take for granted so much stuff. Great video you've made here and another subscriber here too.

Your old videos made me a little emotional, 1994 was the year I fell in love with Alton Towers and rollercoasters, I was 11 when I first visited. Hearing that music blast out on Towers street, in your 1994 clip, hit especially hard. Thank you so so so much for including them, nostalgia overload. Living so close, and visiting so often, it's easy to take Alton Towers for granted, and pick out all of the tiny faults. But watching first time visitors, have reactions like yours, reminds me that we're so lucky. Great video.

Such a shame you guys didn’t get to do Hex, it’s such a great dark ride

Hi guys! I've been looking forward to watching this video after watching your other UK park ones! Glad you had a fantastic time, it's always great to see non-British people enjoying the park. It's my favourite park here in the UK, just a shame I live 2 hours away from it! If ever you come back to the UK, it's definitely worth visiting the park when there is an event on such as Oktoberfest, Scarefest or their Fireworks weekend. The atmosphere during those is incredible and the park stays open until 9pm allowing you to ride all the rides in the dark. Wicker Man and Nemesis are totally different beasts at night, not only because it is dark but also because they've had 12 hours to warm up! You would not recognise Wicker Man back row at 9pm in the dark!! Few little bits of info for you... Most of the large boulders you see lining the park paths (especially around Katanga Canyon) are taken from the pit they dug for Nemesis. If you stand in the right position at the Smiler, the track will look like the Staffordshire knot - the traditional symbol of Staffordshire - the cobra roll entwined with the batwing element resembles the knot The two corkscrews at the entrance to the park were taken from The Corkscrew ride - the ride that made Alton Towers back in the 1980s. They closed it due to its age to put Thirteen there in 2009 Emily Alton was a little girl in the dolls house in the queue line of The Haunted House and Duel (previous incarnations of The Curse) and the girl - and the effect used to create her - was so iconic they based the story of The Curse on her. The mother of Emily in the new dolls house "preshow" in the Curse's queue line is actually the girl who played the original Emily! Hex is based on a real local legend of an Oak tree wrapped up in chains. The tree is still standing complete with chains about half a mile from the entrance towards Alton village And its the ruins of a stately home, not a castle!

:)

I’m going with my sisters here!

Vampire used to have that heavier swing before the cars changed in 2002, in saying that it is the only original Arrow thats had the floorless conversion!

The best time to go to theme parks is when kids are at school. The most you'd wait for a ride is 30mins.

I knew she'd hate Rattlesnake before she went on it 😂

We're the lines long on that day?

Great video folks. Really enjoyed it and love your style of video. Very professional and your take on the park was super interesting. Hope you had a great time at Alton Towers.

Omg you only went 6 days before me lol😂

cant stress enough how overlooked nemesis inferno is. she's aged like fine wine and i'd even dare to say it's on par with nemesis at towers but comparing them is the most useless thing ever as the layouts give completely different experiences! im glad you had an amazing day at thorpe though, it's such a gem of a park.

I'm going to Hershey this summer, and you know what, I'm starting my Hershey vacation at Hersheys chocolate world

I think the important thing about the SWARM theming is try not to think about it too much, we’re 🇬🇧 not too good with theming and backstory and stuff, USA has that down to a T, us not so much 😂😂

I'm going to Hershey this summer, it's been a dream of mine to go there. and to be honest, I live in Massachusetts, but other than that I'm so excited to go to Hershey Park and the new hershey's chocolatetown

I have to hit Marini's candies. I never leave without a cinnamon candy apple and ride the carousel. Love grabbing two rings on the same pass.

it’s meant to be a big water effect in the cave, it’s not worked for a few years 😢

Vampire used to be a lot better before they changed the trains

Rattlesnake is horrible and definitely avoid now .

In the cave in Zufari, there's meant to be a ton of water that falls down those rocks. It's a bit like a tiny version of the train scene on the movie tour at universal California. The last time I saw that effect working was may last year and it hasn't worked since.

I don’t know if you’ve heard of John Wardley but he’s an absolute hero for essentially bringing the theme park to the UK, and it all took off here at Chessington before he went on to do Nemesis etc. Gruffalo has had that same ride system since about 1991 but was originally known as Professor Burp’s Bubbleworks 😂 it was brilliantly silly. Vampire was built at the same time (it was all Transylvania back then). Sorry I’m waffling now

205ft not 200ft And its the fastest accelerating roller coaster operating but u didn’t do any research

The name Nemesis was used because Thorpe is owned by Merlin, the same company that operates Alton Towers. If they named this ride anything else everyone would say it was fantastic but everyone compares it to the much better, original Nemesis. I call this ride Nemesis Inferior.

I didn’t know if you wanted some clarification or not but the train in the swarm is the alien and you went to the church for cover but the swarm attacked the church and abducted you which is the story , I love the swarm but stealth is the best for be , the launch is increadible!! I’ll be at hyperia on the opening day and I’m sure it’ll be my new fav at Thorpe but I don’t know if it’ll beat nemesis reborn 👀

flying fish normally goes around 3 times the operator just let you have rerides

Loved the new perspective of Thorpe Park with you guys! Instant sub! In regards to swarm the cart with the aliens, they are literally the aliens crashing through everything and invading etc. they’re the swarm of flying aliens. If you watch the ride trailer for when it comes out, it makes more sense. And the pro alien signs are like people welcoming the aliens etc

Hello, New sub here, from Ireland. My boyfriend and I also were in Thorpe park a few weeks ago for our first visit. We had similar views as you guys on a lot of the rides. The American theme of the park and the shouty soundtrack is so annoying, I think they could improve on that. The Walking Dead is such a letdown, the front sign is the best part of it, and the coaster is so weak. Come to Ireland 🇮🇪 to visit our Emerald Park, if you haven't been already. 😊

So let me get this straight, a youtube channel about coasters and theme parks has someone who was unsure about getting on half the coasters

Thrope park and Alton towers where owned by different when they came under the same company they started major investment at thrope park and built colossus then there was a major fire where nemesis inferno now stands. so they had to build some thing very quickly as as the original nemesis was the best rollercoaster they wanted to piggyback off the ride.

Have a look at Alton Towers, it's set in the grounds of a former country home. The difference is that because the Theme Park is set in an area of outstanding natural beauty, no rides can ever be seen from the surrounding areas. This theme park has had to be very clever in how they design their roller coasters, making sure they are below the tree line. This also means they have dug down on many occasions to produce some really intense low level coasters. It is really worth a trip for a couple of days. Also the hotels have a water park included!

Glad you've enjoyed Thorpe Park, hope you'll visit for Hyperia soon

Enjoying the video from a UK perspective. Wear comfy walking shoes when you go to Alton Towers 😆Make sure you both go on The Smiler!

Hello I’m a new subscriber I come to Thorpe quite a lot live in England it 1 my favourite parks I love the swarm stealth can’t wait for HYPERIA the new coaster
