I became intimately familiar with Alton Towers as a teenager, despite having never been to the UK, because of an insanely detailed recreation of it in Roller Coaster Tycoon that someone had uploaded to a fan site in the early 2000's. I loved managing the park as it was a challenge to manage such a big park in RCT. Despite never being there myself, I have some weird nostalgia for the virtual Alton Towers thanks to RCT

Is that a miniature model of the entire coaster I see in that video? Towers should sell replicas of that. I would buy one at a high price. It's a travesty that there's no real Nemesis store at Towers anymore. Whatever merchandise they do sell is always themed towards the loop part of the ride rather than the actual alien. It's so weird that the most iconic character in the park isn't really represented these days. Hoping that 2019 brings some special celebrations for Nemesis' 25th anniversary.

In my opinion Nemesis is the best coaster in the UK. A legend over 20 years old. Newer rides have came but will they have the longevity this has and impact on the park as much. Rather than complain that it is not the best in the UK. Tell me why and what your fav is?

Nemesis is without a doubt the best in the UK except when Olympia Looping is here that is.

I first rode Nemesis when I went to Alton Towers with my parents then years later with my husband and our friends and then again with our two boys. Can't wait to take my grandson. Nemesis and Alton Towers have always had a special place in our family.

So, Nemesis was my first RC experience, and kinda got me hooked. One year (when air opened) we got in to the park early to ride air, once done we went to Nemesis, rode it once, got off, ran the empty queue, then when we came back in to the station from the second run, the guy said "no need to get off". The floor came up, went down and we went straight away! After the third time in a row... We needed a seat. Lol As for Inferno, sure that does have a story, which was the beast tried to escape by digging down, and it caused a fissure and volcano in Thorpe Park.

spot on, nemesis is the top coaster in this country FULL STOP..... The coaster has strange features where you sit. Toward the back its soft and tame, but front (left) is intense and feels a lot more than the 4.5g is advertised. Im really looking forward to taking my 10 year old twins on the old gal next year as they have not ridden her yet, the first ride on the front should be something they will remember. This for me is the perfect coaster, it is constant as you stated on the video, no lulls just unadulterated terror and thrills. Those near misses make the coaster.

Thank you for actually covering uk/European theme park rides in decent detail. All the us/Canada based channels I follow never do

My favourite ride of all time, there's just something about it that's perfect... the location, the close walls, something about the sound the track makes. It just keys the whole experience together. I've never found anything that matched it, even stuff higher and faster... Amazing on a chilly dark winter night on the front row! This got me over my fear of rides when I was a young kid because it was FUN and an EXPERIENCE. And I still go back to it and get that same high after all these years! Simply... A masterpiece.

Ah Nemesis, the best roller coaster I've ever experenced, loved it as a kid, love it as an adult. Though I admit the ride experence has gotten a bit rougher over the years with the Beast showing it's age, last time I rode it the twist just as we re-entered the station jarred my hips pretty badly, no enough to put me off the ride but enough that I still felt it the next day. I love the backstory of Nemesis, though the version I remember as being a little different. That while the Beast is pinned by the coaster it would eventually get it's self free, but it can't as the sound of people screaming in fear and joy as they ride Nemesis keeps it frozen in place so that it can't get lose.

Damn right, still the best ride in the UK. It remains to this day an absolute masterpiece in every single way. Ride experience, theming, story, mystique, marketing. It’s got the lot. A fine addition to the British Engineering hall of fame.

One of my all time favourite Rollercoasters. Perfect Queue Design, iconic theming, spectacular music and the best layout of any Rollercoaster in the UK.

I remember when I stayed at splash landings a couple years ago, l got early entry both days. I made a beeline straight for this and must of ride 5/6 times within the first hour of the park being open just get queueing until it got busy.

Jesus the backstory is SO detailed lol..like you would never expect an original awesome backstory to a RIDE here in United States. You brits are the best when it comes to cool stuff like that haha, I love it. I want to go to Alton Towers so badly, it seems like the best amusement park ever! I was born and raised in Southern California down the ways from knotts and Disneyland so I have been to both countless times, however six flags magic mountain is 2 hours (of misery) and so haven’t been there as much as I’d have liked to. But ya you guys are so lucky to have such a bad ass amusement park in England!

It is a very important roller coaster for the uk I love nemesis it's my favourite still coaster by b&m

Every time I go to alton towers I forget how intense nemesis is. To this day I would say its still the best ride at the park (let down slightly by the removal of the red/pink waterfalls)

Hands down my fave coaster ever. It never fails to bring a smile to my face when I ride it. It was actually the first roller coaster I ever went on.

I am having such a nostalgic time watching all these videos! I visited Thorpe park and Alton towers quite a lot through the 90’s and nemesis was my favourite ever ride

Nemesis is an absolute classic, gives me a buzz every time! Same with Oblivion, such classic rides at Alton Towers that has stood the test of time.

In John Wardley’s book he says that the theme is that the track are the tentacles of the monster and the supports are what is being used to pin down the monster.

I have been binge watching all your coaster docs lol they’re great! Keep it up! ☺️

Nemesis is iconic due to its surroundings. Any B&M inverted will always be a good coaster to ride but the pit that Nemesis is built into takes it to another level. The layout of the ride is perfect. Its non stop intense action right until the section after the vertical loop where you get a few seconds to catch your breath before being thrown into the surprise last inversion that catches new riders out. Ive not ridden it for many years but with the newly installed re-track it gives me another chance to get on it in the future

I frickin love this rollercoaster, I rode it this year and it is legendary! The intense thrills, fantastic theming and unique track layout add up to a great experience that I would highly recommend. Legendary name Legendary theme music Legendary coaster

Nemesis is the best in the UK without a doubt. It's fast, forceful, smooth, well themed throughout the whole ride and Alton Towers would not be the park it is today without it. The tight ground clearance, the roaring track and the relentless pace, it's everything a good rollercoaster should be. It's a magnificent ride and I still love it just as much today.

One of my first big coasters! Yay for Nemesis 💖

I will always have amazing memories of nemesis and Alton towers, from staying at the hotel as a kid and going on it first thing in the morning back when it was new and then legging it back to have another go, to going again recently for my 39th birthday and feeling a bit more wobbly when I got off but still wanting another go and probably appreciating the whole experience even more, incredible how something can hold up for so long, can’t wait to go back there again

Best roller coaster I have ever ridden - Nemesis. It pulls off the magic trick of being extremely intense but with virtually no discomfort. I have not been on any other roller coaster that could do this.

The backstory of the Nemesis is very Eldritch/Lovecraftian.

Hello There, a great episode, thank you for uncovering this story, it's much appreciated. Cheers Peter :)

This is a brilliant video. Nemesis is easily my favourite coaster in the country! It's also my most ridden coaster (by far) but I somehow never get tired of it, and still get the same rush of euphoria each time I ride. It really is special, and I don't think I could bare to visit AT again if they ever removed it. A true masterpiece of design and engineering 👌

Went to the park couple weeks back. It’s still the best ride there by a mile, only the smiler comes close. What was even better was that queue times were only 5 minutes because of newer rides, even for the front row. So good.

I remember riding this the loop was amazing... when u get to the top you feel weightless and motionless for a second Can't wait to ride it again someday

Great video. I remember riding nemesis the year it opened. It was exciting then and its still my favourite uk coaster

The routine excavation back story looks like when they dug up pazuzu from the start of the excorcist! Fantastic ride, one of the best I’ve been on

Another great video, about an amazing Roller Coaster.

Nemesis looks like such an amazing ride! I really hope to experience it one day... I bet without the intense height restrictions it wouldn't be nearly as good of a ride. When you have restrictions like that you're forced to be more creative, which you can clearly see from this coaster. Went to CP and Raptor is my second favorite coaster there (under SV of course.) B&M inverts are by far their most intense coasters and I always love riding them. Even just the Batman at SFGAm manages to be pretty intense.

That's such a spectacular backstory to avoid the confusion that so many roller coasters have with their metal tracks!

It’s still my favourite coaster to this day!

Nemesis is something of a master piece. From it’s location, landscaping to it’s intense and speedy layout throughout. Can’t see another U.K. coaster topping this for a long time.

I’ve got a not-so-fearsome Nemesis plushie. He’s small and has an eye on top of his head as well as a star eye and another round eye, a humanoid shape and he’s wearing a black onesie for some reason. A girl from the college group I went with bought a Nemesis themed teddy which is just a red bear

Took my two girls on this a few days ago - still thrilling and intense at 25 years old!

Awesome coaster. Got me back into rides going on this

Nemesis is ridiculously smooth. When I first rode it I couldn’t believe it could be that smooth after so many years of operation. Truly a marvellous ride with brilliant theming.

I always find it interesting when I see a Shuttle Loop in another park. My local park still has the same Shuttle Loop and it carries so many memories for me. They had noise complains from it. They didn't remove it, they fully enclosed it inside a building, the ride is now done fully in the dark !

26 years old today! Convenient time to come back across this video!

I'm waiting for Ol' Nemmy to reopen in 2024 to go to Alton!

One, if not the best, of the most amazing rollercoasters ever. Very lucky to have it in the UK, and age is only making it better

Wow, really selling me on the danger of the "Thunder Looper" with that voice. Now if it was a stand-up coaster I'd be terrified for my spine.

I did the big one and nemesis on open year as a child and they are still my most favourable coasters. I miss that indoor ride next to oblivion, Alton Towers best theme park in the UK the cable car over the gardens and house really make for a spooky atmosphere.

i love alton towers because of their awesome theming! my local park is Phantasialand in germany, which also love, but i love the more edgy and darker theming and lore of alton tower rides. coming to the UK (to birmingham) for a semester abroad in autumn and will definitely go to alton towers.

I went here for the first time the year this opened. The line was 2 and a half hours wait. At the time we'll worth it.

Rode this coaster a few days ago , still awesome 20 years later 😀

Nemesis has been my favourite coaster in the UK since I first rode it in the opening year and I've been back countless times since - however that's all changed this year as Icon has just beaten it to the crown for me. I can't wait for next season though as my daughter will finally be tall enough to ride it with me, and it'll be interesting to see which she prefers (she's already ridden and loved Icon because of the shorter height requirement).

Great video!! I also agree nemesis is the best in the UK. The design is just genius, in a way I’m glad Alton had the height restrictions as we would’ve just got a Batman replica. Saying that though I do hate Alton’s restrictions as it has prevented us from a hyper. I really do hope Thorpe gets one finally, as they’re the only one with the money that can justify it. Thorpe been a huge let down these last 5 years so expecting something special in 2020!

If I hadn't watched this video I would have never known there was a documentary about Roller Coasters narrated by Vincent Price. Thank you for this.

Went on this the 1st year it was open.... remember que was about 3-4 hrs long but at the time was so worth it... classic

NEMISIS is by far my favorite coaster. Such a smooth ride.

Keep up the good work. Best theme park channel on KZread in my opinion. So glad you mentioned that OG Nemmy is better than Thorpe's. I know so many people that think Thorpe's is better because it is their home park. They are quite simply wrong

Thank you!

I definitely agree that Nemesis is the best coaster in the UK! Nothing has beaten that for me, it still thrills me all these decades later.

I would argue that it is one of the best on earth

I absolutely love Nemesis and I was terrified of it when I was younger. That music haunted me and when I first saw the red blood river and sat on the rollercoaster seat the panic was unreal and I thought I would have a heart attack. That fear just made it more exhilarating though. I really hope they do Nemesis justice with the retrack, it's far too beloved to mess it up ❤ I'll miss that roar 🖤

Oh lord this is going to be fun to ride, my first ever inverting coaster

Has anyone noticed that the voiceover for the King Cobra coaster clip was done by the late Vincent Price?

I have never been to Alton towers, but I live 45 minutes away from six flags great America and Batman is awesome!
