The Smiler roller-coaster opening day 31/5/2013 at Alton Towers featuring the first public riders and loads of off-ride footage. I hope this helps people get a good impression of what is an amazing new ride :)

Its amazing to think that on the opening day that the speakers on the smiler were so limited that it was very quiet. But now with the audio update its like HA HA HAAAAA

Yeah, as far as I can remember, it went pretty well. It was a while ago though!
Love all of the angles. Now I have a much better idea of the coaster and can see how many interaction points there are. Fantastic!

Little hint : if you can go with three people if you want to go on front row me and my best friends went three at a time and both times went at the front row ( we did this three times and we got front row each time)
@7GeorgeB111 жыл бұрын
Wow, looks amazing! Did you go on it? If so, were the separate queues for the front and the back of the ride? When I say the front and the back, I mean the front row will have its very own queue, then the second, third and forth row will have a queue which holds all three rows. Because I don't want to have to queue up for like an hour and a half and then to find out that I have to sit at the back. Thanks! X

I am gonna buy a fast track ticket this time. Last time the queue was long, very long and it broke down once, so we could not ride it. :/ but it fixed again and now, I want to ride it. No take backs.

the ride is awesome! one thing I don't get is why they had to remove the art of being corrected after the accident? it makes no sense. what has a rides theme got to do with an accident? it would be like taking " don't look down from oblivion" to me it makes no sense. but the ride itself is incredible. 2 times in one day ( I had a fast pass ) the first time I was so happy I was smiling. the second time I got off I actually fell over cuz I was so dizzy! I stepped off the train and nearly went into a member of staff! I was laughing tho and so was he so it was fine. but all in all an absolute joy to ride and experience!
@AdamExploresBritain Жыл бұрын
I think it's because Alton were trying to be overly safe with regards to PR. Corrected could sound a bit like being treated after an injury I suppose so I think they just didn't want to leave themselves open to being portrayed as insensitive. It was probably a bit over the top, but I can understand where the thinking came from.
