Ойын-сауық
Join us for our vlog from the opening day of the 2015 season at the UK's largest theme park resort, Alton Towers. We take a look at the new additions to the resort for 2015 including the Octonauts Roller Coaster Adventure, the new street entertainment and much more. We also take a ride on some of the parks classic rides, with plenty of laughs and reviews along the way!

Thankyou so much to all of you for doing this great vlog. This will be my first time in alton towers (going this weekend) and after watching this vlog im super excited. Fantastic job.
Trust sky News to paint the smiler in the worst possible way I would ride again even after the accident I have 100% trust in merlin
Watching this makes me really excited for when I go to Alton Towers in August! Great video man!
I love the way jack Is funny and puts his face really close to the camera XD
Went to Alton towers on the 14th April and saw Charlotte there. I never knew you worked there either 😂
Gonna be there this weekend! cannot wait!

I go to Alton Towers every year and now I you've made me want to go again haha
Visiting in 3 days :) Can't wait!
I'm going on August 12 2016 and staying in the splash landings hotel for my birthday which is on the 11 😂😂😘 but sooooooooooo excited I've also been in 2013 too xxxx

Tree clearance behind Sub Terra is apparently due to fungal diseases/tree protection but if it is they could possibly have more space to play with.
Love the blokes face when he presses the button & plays the selfie song

This Vlog for me is upsetting because it was, for me, the last time Alton Towers was Feeling Great, then the smiler crash happened and so many people were fired, it's quite sad :(

First The Smiler, then a few weeks after Sonic Spinball apparently crashed, and then they got criticised for having a 'Ride Me' t-shirt in the shop.. and now normal breakdowns are appearing in the news all the time.

I'm literally the only theme park enthusiast in my family and one of only a couple of KZreadrs from Doncaster lol 😂 It's a lonely business but it's worth it for the best coasters and the newest rides and attractions
I think the tree clearance in the dark forest is probably for a new flat ride to replace the blade probably coming around 2016 and the other tree clearance is probably separate for SW8 for 2017. This is similar to 2012 when sub-terra opened and 2013 when The smiler came

There was also tree clearance in DF, that was apparently due to a tree virus, but now people are saying its a cross valley coaster linking the two.
Going on the 23rd and 24th of March! So excited!

Booked a lodge for scarefest. Can't wait, especially now that there is rumors scarefest is going to be changing this year!
Ahh went today. Amazing day! :D The only coaster rides we didn't go on was Oblivion (I'm honestly scared of the thought of the feeling at the drop), and Sonic (Girlfriend doesn't like spinners). We gave rides a score out of 5, meaning £'s we'd pay for admission: Octonauts (First ride for a laugh) - £1 Nemesis (went on it twice. Once in the dry, and once in the rain on the same seat... Felt a lot more forceful in the rain) (In terms of this kind of ride, Infusion in Blackpool gives you more G's, and feels more intense than even Smiler imo - £4 Mine Train - £1.50 Smiler (Went on this twice too. Absolutely loved it. Only drop you feel is on the bunny hops. Nemesis actually feels worse in terms of force applied to you) (The front seat though feels more shaky than 3 or so carriages down) - £5 Rita (Went on this twice too. Haha, that rush at the start is great and you do get some airtime during the drops) - £4 Air (No feelings at all of any force. It just leaves you laughing. Still love it) - £3 If you think I can do all those coasters though, do you think I could do Oblivion? I've been scared of coasters with sudden drops after going on Revolution in Blackpool. I've never liked that drop. Does it feel the same?
Lol you got your prediction wrong
At scare fest a few years ago their was a clown in the pirate boat car thing and it almost ran me over 😂😂😂😭😂
It'd make the Skyride journey much more interesting if there was a huge ride next to it :P

Jake Brierley you queue up inside for a bit, listen to a short story about the ride, then get lead into the ride. its basically a big swing with a spinning room, its not a forceful ride but it messes with your head due to the spinning room

Nemesis feels worse than Smiler, but Nemesis is tame in comparison to Infusion in Blackpool in terms of force. Nemesis is just pure fun though, seriously. Once you go up that massive lift hill, there isn't a sudden drop to worry about. You just feel a rush of adrenaline. Seriously, go on it :) Once you go on that, you can do Smiler no problem

Originally wicker man was gonna be in forbidden valley so that’s why there were those markers tree clearance and ride removal rumours

I never got to ride the Blade, sadly. Alton really lacks flat rides, especially swinging ones now. There are none, which disappoints me as swinging rides and pirate ships are my favourite. Long live the great Blade!

It’s weird seeing all the different old comments with rides like ripsaw on here (even enterprise now)+Galactica being air. How wrong you were with the new coaster being in forbidden valley with the blade removal (I’m guessing that didn’t happen due to The Smiler incident), but I reckon wicker man suits the area next to mutiny.
Shawn, you don't happen to know about the Millions incident in Katanga Cargo earlier this year, do you? That meant the Millions machine had to be taped up?

Bit of context, basically in Katanga Cargo my dad couldn't get some of the minions sweets out so shook one of the tubes (despite my mum telling him it would break) thinking it would be fine and accidentally broke it, millions went all over the floor 🙈funniest and most embarrasing moment of my life, we were wondering if you heard about it. They were taped up next time...
