This was the smoothest coaster i've ever been on by a long, long way! From what i've hard, coasters get rougher the further back on the train you are. Maybe you were on one of the last 2 carriages. I rode this, thought it was amazing and so smooth! (I was on the 2nd row). I then rode Nemesis (also on the 2nd row) and thought it was really rough! Nemesis was still really fun, but much more noticeably rougher than The Smiler. I hope Nemesis is smooth in 2024 after the retrack! Nemesis is fun, but a bit rough in places. The smiler was so perfectly smooth when i went on it!

Dude in the smiler crash video right as they crashed there was evil laughter from the smiler

Kind of ironic and counter intuitive, but that first barrel roll in the dark at like 5 seconds after the ride starts is really comforting and gives you confidence that everything is going to be ok. It's hard to see it on camera, but when you're on this ride and you feel it, it's strangely comforting. At least it was for me, anyway. It's like after the roll you register what just happened and it was fine so you're like "ok, i just went upside down, in the dark, and everything is fine! Bring it on!"

The flip at the beginning was so unexpected but 10/10 ride!

We went to Alton towers a few days after the summer holidays in early September. It was so quiet we were one of the only ones on the ride, there was no line to wait in or anything. It was amazing, I don’t think I’ll ever experience a theme park so quiet again!

It’s been exactly 1 year and 1 day since I’ve been on this ride! Absolutely great!

For some reason, I always expect vertical lift hills to be followed by really steep drops. I think the fact that I've been on Saw: The Ride at Thorpe Park may have something to do with that.

Indeed - this bucks the trend of most Gerstlauers with vertical lifts.

This ride is crazy!! I was literally petrified to go on it and absolutely adamant i wasn't going to go on, but it was the first one we went on after being persuaded, very nearly had a panic attack and got off before it started but so glad I pushed through it as it was amazing! Even went on it again before we left. Absolutely fantastic ride 🙏 (apart from that vertical lift, that was honestly petrifying 😢)

I Love How Their Is A Calm Octonauts Ride And Then Theirs This😂😂😂

This is my fav ride at Alton Towers! I went on Rita, THI3TEEN, Galactica, The Wickerman, Oblivion and the Smiler Yesterday and this is my fav

It's a beast of a roller coaster, talking from experience. If you go Alton towers make sure you go on every coaster. Fun asf

This POV is perfect for me recreating the smiler in games.

Rode the smiler 5 times yesterday! This ride is absolute nuts

Yes the 2nd airtime Hills the best bit 100^

My favorite theme of any ride in existence to be honest.

Absolutely Loved This Ride Technical Stuff - I've only been on Smiler, Rita and Thirteen at Alton Towers and Smiler was by far the most fun. The start section was crazy and there are a lot of sections in this ride that are absolutely insane that you don't really notice on the POV videos for example the airtime hill in the 2nd half blew me away even though when I saw it on videos I didn't really even notice it. All of the loops felt smooth in my opinion and even though I had a back row seat it wasn't painful or uncomfortable at all. In my opinion the front row of any ride is overrated and I don't mind where I sit. Ride Experience - Even though it is one of the scariest rides in the world I wouldn't say it is as scary as some Thrill rides like the reverse bungee and skyscraper that I have both been on However it is definitely the most fun I've ever had on a ride. The whole time I was on the ride I had my arms up in the air and I couldn't stop Smiling and Laughing for some reason and the Adrenaline Rush you get from it all is out of this world I remember at the end of the 1st half I was shaking and laughing so much just before we were about to go up the vertical hill and when I got to the end I was blown away by the whole experience and wanted to do it all again however there was a big queue and I needed to do other rides that day. Ratting - 10/10 - Anyone who is a Thrill Seeker needs to experience The Smiler in my opinion and the only advice I can give to anyone who is wanting to ride it but is nervous to get on the ride is to just do it anyway. You only live once so If there is any part of you that wants to ride it you should 100% go for it even If you are scared. Tip To Thrill Seekers - Put your hands in the air the whole time you ride it especially on the upside-down parts because you will get way more of a thrill when you constantly go upside-down.

Yeah except running two carts at once just for the sake of raking in as much business as possible is exactly what caused the atrocious accident that occurred on this awesome coaster some years ago causing two young women to lose their legs and a young man in the same row as them to have permanent knee injuries as well as whatever other injuries were caused to passengers in the rows behind them. I can see they’ve installed more cameras and they do run one less cart than they used to all at once but you’d think they’d move onto the US’s safety protocol where a park can never, ever, for any reason, actively run more than a single cart on a coaster at one time. But nah, they just removed one of three simultaneously running carts, added a few more cameras, and added a slightly longer sensor/timer for detecting whether the cart ahead has made its return or not, to… oh idk, maybe prevent the exact same tragedy from happening again. I have the utmost respect for roller coasters as well as the great people who design them. What I don’t respect are the corporations who purchase them and the unaware careless workers who run these serious machines

​​​​@@Healthydistrust They almost always run more than one train on United States rollercoasters at high-quality parks. A block zone is a section of track which only one train is allowed to occupy at any time. Between each block zone is a method of bringing trains to a complete stop, usually a mid-course break run (like on Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit (the trains are small but the mid-course break runs allow it to run many trains and have a high capacity in spite of this)) but sometimes a launch (like the second launch on VelociCoaster at Islands of Adventure). Rollercoasters are not like water slides, where they have multiple trains in the same block zone and count on the fact that the other train is too far ahead to crash, and the fact that it's going so slowly that it's not too dangerous when they crash. The Smiler accident was caused by maintenance adding a fifth train to the track without telling ride operators. They sent the train around the track with no passengers in it, and it valleyed due to high winds. Then, ride operators sent a train with passengers. The computer system told them that there was still a train in the first block zone, and refused to send the train down. Ride operators saw that there were three trains in the station and one on the lift hill, so they assumed the computer system was wrong not knowing there was a 5th train on the track, and didn't bother checking to see whether there was anything else in the block zone (which is probably a serious violation of safety protocols and is the main cause of the accident), manually overrode the safety system, and sent the train out through the course. Then, it crashed into the valleyed train.

Thats it thats good keep laughing and smile for me

Best Coaster in the world

i have been on this and waited like 5 hours in the line and when we finallly got to the end it turned out my sis was too short to go on so she got a free badge thing where whenever u press it it plays the music hahahahaahahha and the laugh still creeps me to this day. i dont actually live in EnglandI went there for holidays i live in Ireland but thats the best rollercoaster ive went on

Went on this today and there was a golf ball in the pit under the halfway point. I wonder how that got there?

love it im going

This ride haunts my nightmares

I love the smiler so much! The music, theme and everything! I went on it twice yesterday ahhh it’s so good! (I’m 13 so if ur an adult then you’ll be fine!)
