Behind The Scenes Of OBLIVION Operations - Alton Towers
Вставка
- Опубліковано 30 чер 2024
- - Take a behind the scenes look at one of Alton Towers Resort most iconic rides - Oblivion! I explore the operators cabin including pressing announcements, play around with the dispatch buttons AND climb to the very top of the lift hill, 180ft high! Not only is it that tallest ride in the resort but also the fastest topping Rita by 6.9mph! This VIP event lasted around 2 hours and couldn't have been better! The climb provided spectacular views across the resort including The Smiler, X-Sector, The Towers and the flag tower! The operator's cabin includes an old old old version of Windows, alongside wind monitors, CCTV Of the ride amongst more! The Staff couldn't have been better and a huge shout out to Nathan who really made the event!
After the experiance the park sends over Photos from their own Go Pro along with a virtual certificate, although you can just take your own photos on your own phone proovided it fits in the pouch provided on the Oblivion harness! Oblivion sits opposite the Smiler infront of Rita and Thirteen. Built in 1998 as B&M's first ever "vertical" dive roller coaster. This model would become extremely popular, and one of B&M's best selling model. The relationship between B&M and Alton Towers Resort would continue with Galactica and Nemesis Reborn in 2024!

You probably got told, but the dispatch buttons are on the side to stop you being able to press both dispatch buttons using one hand. Therefore you have to use both hands to dispatch and in theory, that means you have given the ride your full attention and are not doing anything else.
Your very much welcome mate, I'm over the moon that you enjoyed it so much and you flew up and down the lift like a pro thank you for the shout out I really appreciate that pal hopefully I'll see you again dropping into oblivion soon ⬇️😁
Ah hello!! Honestly such a great event and thank you so much! No worries you really made the experience and Ill be dropping back into Oblivion this Saturday! Thank you so much 😊
I love oblivion. The drop alone makes it better than most rides in the park
No matter how tall dive's get... Oblivion's drop is just 😍
wow so cool i rly enjoy your content🤩
Thank you so much!
0:28 The Smiler background noise got me distracted although it's not the attention needed😍
Great video! I’d be pressing all the announcement buttons as I love audio equipment. Do they have an Audio Rack in the op cabin or is it all controlled from elsewhere? (Amps for speakers etc)
Nice
Nice
I watched theme park world wides video on the VIP track walk, and he mentioned they didn’t allow recording. Has this changed now? Loved the video thank you so much for taking us along for the ride!
Yep since the first VIP event they’ve changed it drastically! Filming video/pictures is fine anywhere and staff were so nice! Thanks so much for watching!
thank cod it has changed (sorry couldn’t resist)
@@peedlejaydle god dammit! I was confused till I read my own comment 🤣
That’s so great you can do things like that! Do you know if the dive motor that runs the dive chain is hydraulic or electric on Oblivion? Thanks for sharing.
It was such a cool event! Funny you comment now just as Im watching your six flags rapids breakdown video! To be honest I’m not sure about the dive motor we never got told 🙃 It was extremely cool to be up close and personal with the chain, and wow is B&M’s track thick!
@@ThemeParkEnthusiast and heavy! Thanks for the response. I enjoy your content.
I believe its electric, although I might be wrong. When I worked there years ago, I always assumed it was electric.
@@DavidPlant1985 thanks.
I’m so jealous
‘Oh-blivion’
🤣🤣
Is the price changed if I have a platinum merlin Pass (Platinum)
No discount sadly 😢
@@ThemeParkEnthusiast Ah dang
0:13 lol
Did you look down, or is that not allowed 😏
That would be telling!
