You couldn't of started that video better Shawn. With everything that has gone on etc it's great to stay on the positives of the park and there is so much more to it than 1 rollercoaster and hopefully we can all move on and it stops the comments of "Shawn, what do you think of The Smiler incident?" Lets all move on and stay positive about the future of the UK's no1 Theme Park :)
Such an iconic video of yours. Great to see nemesis in its original form again and all the fun that was packed in this video love your channel . New and old videos
wow this is amazing this was the first video I've ever watched by you back in 2016. now it's crazy to see how far this channel has grown for 30,000 subscribers to almost 200,000 it's insane. keep up the good work!
I know this was filmed after the smiler crash but to be honest at the end of the day it is still a good ride and you did a good thing not to mention it in the vlog. I think that people should not be put off after what happend because if you think about how many people ride it it isn't dangerous at all
i can't begin to explain the amount of jealousy i have for you! To have such an amazing place right on your doorstep is incredibly lucky! Alton Towers is about a 7/8 hour drive away from me and if i could i would live there. Some day i do hope to work there for the summer or whatever just to experience it all from a different perspective but also just to be there and take it all in everyday would be amazing! Your vlogs for AT are so good and detailed i love to just sit back and watch the beauty that is Alton Towers.
Im going soon in august excited as !! I love this channel so much btw thanks so much for just uploading this is definetly my fave roller coaster/ theme park channels and I just love this channel so much ahah Thanks so much
best log flume i've ridden is terra miticas when i was 10 years old, jjst love the theming to the egyptian area plus the second drop surprise of going backwards down it, making those at the back think they are going to get soaked (and they do)
i am going on the 16th 3 more days! it will be my first time on oblivion rita air nemesis ripsaw and anything else that the height limit is 1.4 so excited
I watched the ride on here and it looks cool but I'm petrified of the dark so I don't know how well it's going to go, I don't even know what happens when you go backwards haha
Hey theme park I might go this or next Sunday I love your videos and u enspire me keep up the good work p.s plz tell what is the best day time plz reply
I went there literally today, I went on nemesis, air, Rita, sonic spinball, all the water based stuff, oblivion, and more, omg it was amazing! Rita is the best though!!
Gostei do video, de verdade! Não para de gravar, com o tempo a gente aprende um monte de coisas novas e evoluicresce muito... parabéns pelo trabalho, até logo!
hi I have been to Alton Towers today and I seen you in the entry this morning just want to say your channel is great and had a great day Alton Towers today
I absolutely love these videos I think there amazing especially the Alton towers one I think you should make more Alton tower vlogs im going to Alton towers in two days on Sunday and because of you we were inspired to make a video of us on the rides thanks for making these videos
Its wierd to look back on the tough circumstances the park was in back then and also seeing some footage of oblivion without hearing ha ha ha ha ha in the background
My favourite ride had be rita or thirteen or galactica its so hard too choose with all of these amazing rides in one park love ur videos i would love to see more alton towers xx
I've only recently subbed but I've been really enjoying your videos over the past month I've been watching. Hoping to possibly see you and the guys at Alton Towers in August.
When you went, was there hardly anybody there or was there quite a lot of people? I saw that recently the park is quite empty and most of the shops are closed and the park itself is closing earlier because hardly anyone is going.
Alton Towers is awesome especially Oblivion I live that ride I remember sitting at front row definitely got the wow factor I know doesn't last long but it is awesome same for nemesis love them both
hiya ive been to alton towers a few times now and ive been trying to ride rita but never got the guts to XD does it hurt when it starts randomly because a freind was saying that it does hurt a bit? thanks
I was so scared to go on Rita but my uncle convinced me to go on it. It does hurt a bit when it starts but if you close your eyes and sit back it's over really quick
It is a thrill coaster though... The reason it is a 1.2m ride (which doesn't make it a family coaster) is due to the fact of how intamin designed the seats and lap bars are always better for handling smaller people
I absolutely love Alton Towers. I think it is a big shame about the hammering that it has had in the media recently. Nothing that has happened recently has put me off the park, it is so unbelievably safe, and will only get safer now.
I know. Countless theme parks have had accidents, some have even had fatalities, but they are still going strong. I hope Alton survives. I would be heartbroken if the park closed
+grace tankard Me too. An accident is an accident, and the park should be safer than ever now they know what caused the crash. I've personally never been but even with the Smiler incident I'd love to go someday.
Omg I love you Shawn I know a great park to go to its in Scotland it's called M&ds it has two main rollercoasters a suspended looping coaster and a Looping Pinfari called tornado which is Really ROUGH!!!!!
I'm going to Alton Towers in 2 weeks time Shawn. I should get some cool GoPro moments when I go, I sure hope the rides don't stop and breakdown for a faulty problem, should be really good when I go with the girls.
Just the music around the park is enough to make you want to go
You couldn't of started that video better Shawn. With everything that has gone on etc it's great to stay on the positives of the park and there is so much more to it than 1 rollercoaster and hopefully we can all move on and it stops the comments of "Shawn, what do you think of The Smiler incident?"

What do you think of the smiler incident?
20:35 best moment in themepark worldwide history
Sure is 😂😂
Camera is le droppen. 😂
I Feel bad for the camera 😂
R.I.P The Flume!
THE FLUME IS GONE WTF WHEN WHYYY
everything has to close eventually. Sadly, nemesis will close one day, about 20 - 30 years
No nemesis is amazing
EastMidlandsSteam saddens me until this day
@@actualtrash3930 because wicker man (which is a really better ride tbh)
You guys seem to be having lots of fun in those shops, surprised nothing fell to pieces in the Lego one.
Alex was so funny in this vlog.
I have to travel 180+ miles to get to Alton towers but it is worth it!
I have to travel 6 miles
Wow! I had to cancel my plans due to cost and I'm only in West London, giving me a good 130-140 miles!
living 6 miles from Alton Towers works lovely with the Merlin Annual Pass, I go about every 2 weeks
UkStormer79 you are so lucky I wish I lived 2 miles from Alton towers
AmazingVickyIsNotOnFire hehe
Soooo many classic moments in one vlog
100,000 people watched this video. More people than would fit into Wembley Football Stadium watched this vlog!
+Mark Cooper That's a very interesting fact Mark!
215 000 npw
I would definitely go to Wembley to watch tpw!
Such an iconic video of yours. Great to see nemesis in its original form again and all the fun that was packed in this video love your channel . New and old videos
Shaun is the smiler reopened because would still love to go on it. Like you say 'Focus on the positives'! I can't wait to go on Monday!
cool kitty coaster It is closed for the foreseeable future
Oh well! I can't wait to ride NEME21S
Monday was amazing! Straight on every thing!
Cool m8 it's amazing you'll enjoy the smiler I love it
wow this is amazing this was the first video I've ever watched by you back in 2016. now it's crazy to see how far this channel has grown for 30,000 subscribers to almost 200,000 it's insane. keep up the good work!
Thank you for your support!
Swag theme park worldwide
Me and my family have gone to over 20 different theme parks but Alton Towers is our favourite
cant believe I'm watching this 8 years later I miss old alto towers so much
Wow, same
It was a very difficult year for Alton Towers that year. Now it doesn’t even feel like The Smiler incident ever happened.
I know this was filmed after the smiler crash but to be honest at the end of the day it is still a good ride and you did a good thing not to mention it in the vlog. I think that people should not be put off after what happend because if you think about how many people ride it it isn't dangerous at all
i can't begin to explain the amount of jealousy i have for you! To have such an amazing place right on your doorstep is incredibly lucky!

Your vlogs for AT are so good and detailed i love to just sit back and watch the beauty that is Alton Towers.
+Katie Falconer That's a long way to go! It's a good fun park to visit
20:35 what even happened there 😂😂😂 comedy gold
I've always loved the MOO-norail. Alton Towers has to be my favourite theme park in the UK. Love these vlogs!
+31Jammy Such a good fun ride!
Did anyone hear that guy saying we r gunna leg it
This is by far the vlog that made me laugh the most
26:42 RIP, Used to make me wet, now the wetness being tears.
big bob likes to choke you with the mist
Im going soon in august excited as !! I love this channel so much btw thanks so much for just uploading this is definetly my fave roller coaster/ theme park channels and I just love this channel so much ahah
Thanks so much
I'm going next week! How much were the fluffy monkeys in the Runaway Mine Train shop?
I love theme park world wide
What day did u go to Alton Towers shawn?
(Curious 'cause i went on the 6th)
Miss Alton. Our last visit was in May 2013 when RJ was 9 weeks old. Hoping to visit again next year on a week day. Love Thirteen - so much fun
It's our little girl - Rebecca. Her name is shortened to RJ
Why not? It was a trip with the European Coaster Club. Warm day and it was good to get out of the house
Can't wait to be back here on Thursday...haven't been in over a year!😱
Katie Bird Have a great visit
Just been here today! As good as always! All coasters twice (apart from the smiler)
PossesedShadow Hope you had a good day
best log flume i've ridden is terra miticas when i was 10 years old, jjst love the theming to the egyptian area plus the second drop surprise of going backwards down it, making those at the back think they are going to get soaked (and they do)
I think storm force 10 at Daryton Manor is you get more wet than the flume at Alton Towers
+Melissa Holland they've closed it after 34 years
+Aaltocyklon Eller I know it's a shame it's closing
i am going on the 16th 3 more days! it will be my first time on oblivion rita air nemesis ripsaw and anything else that the height limit is 1.4 so excited
If I get good GCSE grades, I get to go for two days! Fingers crossed because I want to go straight on Nemesis and Air.
Air is amazing, never been on nemesis ;)
I think Nemmy will be my first B&M coaster. Regardless of grades. If I get them it means I go this year in September or something
aNewbSimRacer thorpe park tomorrow
straight for the swarm then stealth
aNewbSimRacer Good luck! Enter my competition for your chance to win FREE Alton Towers tickets
How'd it go?!
I'm going tomorrow and this has made me even more excited as I haven't been in over a year, love the place and always will!
Lucky! You can say "iM gOiNg ToMmOrOw" I hate 2020
**laughs in 2022* im going tomorrow
I'm off to Alton Towers next Saturday!! I don't go on the big rides but I'm being dared to go on Thirteen so I'm going to give it a try!
Good luck. TIP: When It goes pitch black you will drop a little but don't worry it's really not that bad, I went on it when I was 7😊
Hope I helped
I watched the ride on here and it looks cool but I'm petrified of the dark so I don't know how well it's going to go, I don't even know what happens when you go backwards haha
+Crystal Hill really 13
It wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be
You are a great UA-camr!
I agree
Who doesn’t. 😀

Fast track or single rider
Its wierd to look back on the tough circumstances the park was in back then and also seeing some footage of oblivion without hearing ha ha ha ha ha in the background
Thanks again for the next few weeks
Shawn what do you think Alton Towers have in store for chopping the trees down by Thir13teen, I think they might be getting a new coaster
Aiden Solesbury All will be revealed...

Hello There, a great video throughout interesting to see how Oblivion started a lot of decent rides. Cheers Peter Mc :)
hiya ive been to alton towers a few times now and ive been trying to ride rita but never got the guts to XD does it hurt when it starts randomly because a freind was saying that it does hurt a bit? thanks
I was so scared to go on Rita but my uncle convinced me to go on it. It does hurt a bit when it starts but if you close your eyes and sit back it's over really quick
Who’s watching in 2024
For a family coaster, th13teen is quite thrilling
it's great
It is a thrill coaster though... The reason it is a 1.2m ride (which doesn't make it a family coaster) is due to the fact of how intamin designed the seats and lap bars are always better for handling smaller people

AmbiKitti you'd love Alton. Everyone I know does!
What do u guys think is the best? Nem21s or The Smiler?
+Lets Play Gaming 442 Nemesis!
+Theme Park Worldwide When are you next going? Cos the smiler opens again on the 19th. Ill be going down on the 24th. I Would love to see you all!
+Ned Longdon We will be at the park on Saturday 19th
Oh right
I love nemesis but my favourite ride of all time is smiler
Same :) WE BELONG TO THE SMILER!
Broski
Same! In spring I gotta go have my.... Correctional process...
+RCS Reviews you bet
RCS Reviews mine is Oblivion
I'm going in march and I can't wait to be back in the park. I think nemesis is the best ride so that's probably gonna be the one we go on 50 times xx
+Abi Arts Have a great visit!
+Theme Park Worldwide Thanks! this blog was hilarious btw XD
+Theme Park Worldwide I have never been to Alton Towers
Im going tomorrow 😬. Is it normally busy on mid term saturdays?
+Millie Fairley We hope you had a good visit
Great vid ! Are you going to scare fest ? If so when !
+Mahamed Gandhi Yes we will have a vlog on the channel from when we visit
when is the next Alton Towers video?
Was air closed ?
do you like every ride in Alton towers
+Amelia Walton I enjoy them all yes!
Thanks guys. That was a thoroughly entertaining Vlog! Alex was really on form, especially in Sharkbait Reef hahaha! Love it! :)
LittlestarRed Thank you!
1:00 I completely agree with you
When are you guys next going to Alton Towers or Thorpe Park?
We will be at Alton again soon and Thorpe once the Ghost Train has opened!
Going here in 5 days!! :)
have fun on thursday!
The suspended one is super smooth!!!,
sorry if its annoying for me to put this but it does bug me. Nemesis is inverted not suspended. Suspended coasters swing.
***** Nope. Suspended coasters swing such as Vampire or Ninja but inverted are fixed like Nemesis or Batman the ride
***** Its a generalization.generalization is just a name. plus ILC doesn't have the same punch.
***** As if it stood for Inverted looping coaster
+Corben Meachin You clwarly dont get what I mean. As if SLC was changed to ILC
I would have thought you got enough ice cream at the last park that you didn't have to steal Alex's :).
CHOO CHOO ENJOY THE RIDE!
Omg I love you Shawn I know a great park to go to its in Scotland it's called M&ds it has two main rollercoasters a suspended looping coaster and a Looping Pinfari called tornado which is Really ROUGH!!!!!
+Amanda Mackenzie Yes we plan to visit here soon!
Great video
I'm going to Alton Towers in 2 weeks time Shawn. I should get some cool GoPro moments when I go, I sure hope the rides don't stop and breakdown for a faulty problem, should be really good when I go with the girls.
They won't let you use it on the coasters.
Great vid! Are you going to scare fest? If you are put up a vid because I'd love to see what it looks like!!
+Lil Mas Yes we will be!
Watch mine on the day after Halloween x
+Theme Park Worldwide Is this true?
www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-stoke-staffordshire-34771289
I'll snatch this one hour vlog right up!
Can you buy plaitnum fast track in the park and also how many people does one fast track ticket cover
You can indeed, speak with the park for further details
I once felt really sick at a theme park because I rode a ton of coasters straight after fried chicken co.
criticalstrike41 Well done :)
has gunpowder replaced the blue n white tea cup ride..i was last at the towers in 1995
When are you going to Efteling? I realy wanna know
What town/city do live
