Slammer was a gem I got to ride it before it's closure in 2017. And there's nothing else like it. It's like hanging upside down on a bar as a kid but on a larger scale So much fun and I wish it was never removed, despite its constant breakdowns due to the extreme maintenance required to run it. I miss loggers leap as well. 2 best rides at Thorpe park in my opinion in all of its history
Unfortunately nothing has been confirmed or announced as of yet, but there has been some suspicious clues/rumours over the past few years... This is as close as I've got to figuring it all out: ua-cam.com/video/XgdyCgFpoPU/v-deo.html 👍
Being from up North I've only been to Thorpe once in 2011 so feel lucky to have been able to ride Slammer but I missed out on The Swarm. Need to get back there! I am going Alton Towers in June tho
People have been hoping for a new RMC at Thorpe Park. I think an I-Box might be a bit bulky, so I wouldn't mind a T-Rex or Raptor Track being installed.
Theme Park Insanity I guess it’s just preference. I just love the theming on Saw. It’s crazy and messed up. Kinda like the Smiler is. I’m going today anyway. I’ve heard people say that Saw is even better in the dark!
Glad i got to ride Slammer before it closed. Can honestly say it is still the most terrified i have ever been on a ride. Genuinely felt like i was going to fall to my death
Superb as ever chaps 👌🏼. It’s a good job they didn’t want to call stealth the “scicilian “ or it would have really kicked off ! 🥊🥊😂😂. Love the Friggin snowflakes bit at the end .... quality 😆😆🧱👍🏼
I'm pretty sure the colossus trains were modified rather that replaced entirely, the restraints were "bulked up" a bit at the bottom and metal boxes welded to the floor all to prevent leg movement
That GCI that was "scraped" or so it has been said. However what if that design was just put on hold and now probably too be built on loggers leaps grave
@@SertQuos i think that gci will be doing something big a Thorpe Park ,that might very well include that new track design gci have just launched that gives off that "rmc" and abilities
@@jamesedwards6589 yeh that's why I said adapted, like it's the same type of layout just with a smaller drop, it could've very well Inspired the wickerman aswell.
stealth goes 0-80 in 1.9 seconds! mad and considering its a lot smaller then its bros like ttd and kinda ka etc im pretty happy too hear its the 4th most powerful in the world! wouldn't have said no too it being 100+ ft higher but what can you do ayy
Stealth can’t possibly have the 4th fastest launch currently in operation. I’m no coaster geek but I’m sure Kingda Ka, Top Thrill Dragster, Red Force, Superman: Escape from Krypton, Do-Dodonpa and Formula Rossa all have faster launches than Stealth.
Hate the fact the word screw is censored lol. My ps3 name from about 2007. Great Vid, love the vids with other youtubers. Just wish colosuss would get new trains, if your over 32 waist or over 6foot tall its horrible. Im surprised some1 hasnt sue'd for crushing a ball yet. Its about time thorpe did something big, Towers have had The Smiler and Wickerman since Swarm.
Thanks buddy! And yeah Thorpe needs a standout attraction in my opinion. As much as I love Stealth and Swarm, they aren't quite God-tier. We need a God-Tier coaster in Thorpe 🙌
@@ScrewyLoops it's been way too long for a major park. When a park like flamingo land seems to have 2 major investments over Thorpe park in the same amount of time (approx) then it's worrying and frustrating. Especially as coaster site 2 was meant to receive it's coaster back in 2015/16
@@Faulty720 They spent a lot of money on Derren Brown in 2016 (£13,000,000). And X's 'Walking Dead' re-theme last year. I can imagine the next big coaster will be coming in 2021👍 if not then... Who knows? 😔
@@twistedcheese1 don't be negative like that. I quite like it. It's a very unique experience being my first gerstlauer ride. 100° drop is pretty unique as well. It's just alot of fun. What's the issues you had with it?
@@DiscreetHobo I love eurofighter drops but I find it rides bad. The layout is decent and the themeing is good. I find it gives me a headache. I like Roufh rides but gerstlauer rough rides I dont enjoy. Take the ultimate for example. That's crazy rough. I guess the OTSR and roughness arnt a good miz
Is it just me or They are just shifting their attention as Alton and not Thorpe? I just want another coaster at thorpe I actually don't even care about what it is. There's literally a space free so i don't get how it's took so long. Thorpe please lol you need something ground-breaking. Alton has Smiler, Nemesis and Wickerman. What do you have?
Any way Thorpe park is irrelevant look at the other parks in Europe and Blackpool pleasure beach for new rides Thorpe park will add crap cheap gp attracting rides for as long as they can plus they pay staff under the minimum wage as staff have said
Was a pleasure to be involved in this video! Thanks for having me Chris 🔥
Thanks for joining me! ☺️ Was a long time coming to be fair 👍
Jack I love u
U made me go on my first coaster that inverts when I was 4
P.S I was a tall kid
YES JACK
Blackpool pleasure beach
It’s the final countdown! Doo doo lo do, doo la doo doo doo
Just looking at the collosus restraint I feel in pain
Slammer was a gem

2 best rides at Thorpe park in my opinion in all of its history
Cool vid Chris. Like that Jack Silkstone was included. 👍
Cheers buddy ☺️👍 Jack is a great lad, so good to finally get him on the channel 🙌
Love jack silkstone being involved, the therapeutic voice just makes me want to listen 🎉
The most important thing to know about Thorpe Park is that they do not have anywhere to store car doors
🤣🤣🤣👍
I'm out of the loop (no pun intended) - do we have confirmation of Thorpe's next rollercoaster? Or just rumours at this point?
Unfortunately nothing has been confirmed or announced as of yet, but there has been some suspicious clues/rumours over the past few years... This is as close as I've got to figuring it all out: ua-cam.com/video/XgdyCgFpoPU/v-deo.html 👍
Nope. What would you expect? It’s Thorpe Park! :D
Been waiting so long for this 😆
Me too, it's taken us so long to finally do 😆 Hope you enjoyed it 🙂👍
@@ScrewyLoops the hard work has definitely paid off; its a great video!

Absaloutly love Thorpe
Keep up the good work
Finally had time for some UA-cam binging, major catch up of the rebranded channel in progress 😊😊
Hope you enjoy! 😁👍
Thorpe park used to be owned by RMC :D
Bangin content keep it up
Thanks so much! ☺️ Glad you liked it! 👍
5:05 I knew about that area from skipping stealth so often

I am going Alton Towers in June tho
Hope you have the best time!! 🙂👍
Can't wait for this!
thanks for the facts I didn't know any of these

0:39 Why couldn't we have had this instead of Saw :(
Would love to see a GCI at Thorpe Park, maybe for their next coaster? Who knows 😉👍
@@ScrewyLoopsI would prefer an RMC or B&M Hyper though :)
Saw is the best rollercoaster at Thorpe Park. I don’t care how rough it is. I love it!
@@acllno Interesting. I guess I say the same about Smiler, though after riding it in Rows 2 and 3 I slightly prefer Wicker Man.
Theme Park Insanity I guess it’s just preference. I just love the theming on Saw. It’s crazy and messed up. Kinda like the Smiler is. I’m going today anyway. I’ve heard people say that Saw is even better in the dark!
Great video as always 👍👍👍
Thanks mate! ☺️👍
Great video! By the way, you should do a part two and one for Chessington.
Thanks mate 🙂 Both are 100% on the cards 👌
Thanks for the heart and reply! :D
Stil is a bucketlist park Chris as you have a few in Europe :)
Great collaboration guys nice little video would of liked it a big longer bit still great thanks 😃
Thanks mate 🙂👍
Awesome collab! Really fun to watch.
Thanks 🙂👍
Really enjoy the vids
Thanks mate 🙂👍
stealth in my opinion is the second best ride at thrope park, first goes to saw
Excited!
Really need to visit Thorpe Park again just to tackle Swarm and Stealth and obviously ride Nemesis Inferno again.
Thanks for the time head up; I plan to be there in a couple weeks.
Nice video!
Thanks so much ☺️👍
Slammer was my favourite flat
RIP 💔
Hate how it’s still standing
Wait, is it
God, I miss Slammer so much. 😭 Had a good look at it whilst queuing for Living Nightmare - such a shame to leave it standing there!
I've never been upside down before what ride should I do first??
Nemesis Inferno would be a good start!! 🙂👍 Barely notice you're upside down on that.
Glad i got to ride Slammer before it closed. Can honestly say it is still the most terrified i have ever been on a ride. Genuinely felt like i was going to fall to my death
It was a crazy ride! Wouldn't particularly call it fun, but pretty terrifying 😂👍
Slammer was an awesome ride. Loggers leap was a legend
Make more vids please they are the best
Thanks mate 🙂 Will have plenty to come, especially over the closed season #MoreSpareTime 🙃
ScrewyLoops thanks mate :)
Superb as ever chaps 👌🏼. It’s a good job they didn’t want to call stealth the “scicilian “ or it would have really kicked off ! 🥊🥊😂😂.
Love the Friggin snowflakes bit at the end .... quality 😆😆🧱👍🏼

ScrewyLoops .pure filth that name 😳😂😆😂🧱👍🏼
I'm pretty sure the colossus trains were modified rather that replaced entirely, the restraints were "bulked up" a bit at the bottom and metal boxes welded to the floor all to prevent leg movement
I rode colossus in the front row and it was super smooth!
What happened to BSBO?
@Peter-John Philip Radcliffe wow. That's so bad. Blackseat Blackout was the perfect name
1000th like 2 years later! Still a great video!
Thank you so much! ☺️
Stealth has slow acceleration though and is rubbish compared to any other launched coaster
Dylan Fox Uhm Stealth has the 4th fastest acceleration on a coaster in the world.
TheEpicWalrus Thorpe park fan it’s still rubbish clearly this is Britain oh well lucky me I’m moving to the USA
Dylan Fox Unlucky move there bud. You’re gonna miss the European culture. Prepare to see shit theming.
nice vid guys
Thanks! 😁👍
Fun fact: A clone of Rock 'n' Rollercoaster / Xpress: Platform 13 was considered for the site of Nemesis Inferno back in 2001
Never knew this! Thanks for sharing ☺️👍
part 2 pls
That GCI that was "scraped" or so it has been said. However what if that design was just put on hold and now probably too be built on loggers leaps grave
The GCI could've been adapted into the Wickerman at Alton Towers aswell, as both parks are owned by Merlin
@@SertQuos i think that gci will be doing something big a Thorpe Park ,that might very well include that new track design gci have just launched that gives off that "rmc" and abilities

fun fact: during construction, dylan died, and so he's now buried under the drop on saw.
For real?

Those are faster in terms of top speeds, Stealth is 4th quickest in terms of acceleration 👍 (e.g. 0-XX in XX Seconds) 🙂
Interesting

Do you watch south park
Do more videos update
Merlin is if the GOT writers bought a theme park
Slammer was HORRIBLE, I genuinely thought I was gonna die on it
Thorpe desperately needs a new coaster and a new flat ride :/
It's been some time! 😔
It will happen soon I think. Derren Brown was a huge investment which could be considered a flop. I'm thinking 2021 or 2022

Rmc in a rmc owned land
Well, i suppose that this would happen after Alton towers got one.
MORE ALTON TOWERS NEXT?
Got another Towers vid coming this week 😉👍
Let's be honest we would have absolutely loved the GCI. It would have been far better than that eurofighter

Should've SAW that one coming 🤣
