you know it's a great coaster when everybody sings happy birthday to it.

I love when parks keep the details for their old rides. 25 years and still has the audio going and the theming looking great. I rode nemesis for the first time in June after 25 years of wanting to and it was amazing.

John is a legend and making a life out of disigning roller coasters must be a dream come true, happy roller coaster day!!!

I actually rode nemesis on this exact day too, such a good ride!

For God's sake I went today. Oh well. I didn't ride on nemesis we just didn't get to that end of the park. We did the dungeons loved it. Went on spin ball wizzer twice, rita, thirteen, runaway minetrain, kongo river rapids and wicker man. Loved them. We just didn't have enough time and because we live so far away we wanted to get on the road at 6:30 so oh well. Loved it. First time since I was like 7 to go.

Seeing John on saturday felt so acheiving as he really is my idol and his book (which i'm on chapter 8 at the moment) is amazing and seeing him in this vlog is just so elevating, thanks Shawn, watched you since 2013 and my you've grown in popularity!

In 1992 when I was 12 years old I rode montazumas revenge at Knott's Berry farm 15 times in a row. It was a big coaster in those days and it's amazing to see how far we've come for coasters. Also not a coaster but I marathoned the octopus as a kid some 20 times in a row without leaving the ride and about an hour later got very sick. Only time any ride has ever made me lose my lunch. Anyway Shawn thanks for all the great videos. Big fan of the channel from Portland Oregon

Watching at 2am in California 😁. You're a wild man shawn.

Who knew a roller coaster would have people singing happy Birthday for it Nemesis is legendary

so there are alot of rollercoaster designers worldwide and yet john wardley is still my favourite. so inspirational and seems to be very kind. yes Alan Shilkey (dont know if its spelt right) has built some amazing rides, but there all similar, however johns rides are all one of a kind

Theme Park Worldwide ye with the weather that day you will get the Blackpool to hear the big one isn’t open

My coaster marathon story. There was one day at Cedar Point when no one was there and I had 62 rides on Top Thrill Dragster. Bear in mind, the park was only open from 5-10 PM that day. We'd get off the train, and the crew would have us run-up to the trains in the station and get on. I think there was one person who claims he had 6 or 7 rides in 10 minutes. On average I was launching every 4 minutes on the ride. Shockingly, Dragster didn't go down for mechanical reasons that night either. The thing about it that was memorable was that across that whole night, the majority of the time I was going over 120MPH. By the end of the night, after the park closed, it felt as if the whole world were in slow motion. Race Car drivers apparently experience a similar sensation called "velocitizing." Anyway, walking back to my car, was really strange because everything was in slow motion the whole time. Great to see roller coaster marathoning challenges are popular all over the country.

That's dedication, waiting in line all those times, in the rain too. Good on ya Shawn

This was my first big roller coaster as well. Was absolutely terrified in line but my mum dragged me on. Loved roller coasters from that point onwards

Well done! You truly are a Alton towers legend! Iv actually done the same challenge but on the smiler me and cousin Vaughan went on 15 times in 4hrs one after the other no breaks, by that point though we was feeling it as it’s not as smooth as when it first opened. I really appreciate your videos I’ve learnt a lot about Alton towers since watching you. Can’t wait for scarefest this year with the Terror of the towers coming back! Eeeek hope you will be doing a video for that.

Nice one Shawn! Always good to see a challenge for rollercoaster day! If all goes to plan in 2020 i will be riding my current number 1 coaster which is Taron on rollercoaster day which will be awesome!
