Th13teen, Alton Towers Central Tonight

[StarAndrew22]

OMG THIS IS SO EPIC!!!

[ProphecyMist]

Amazing experience. I went on this :') LOVED IT

[danielbrown1998]

how high up are you above the ground in the crypt (drop area)

[sandralove09]

what happens in the dark cave that we cant see??

[SuperLyria]

OMFG THE LIGHTS DIDNT GO DOWN !

[MrElectricBill]

2:23 How about a freefall bench? AWESOME IDEA! Alton Towers, hire this man!

[givepropstotherich]

(continued) heart attack

[givepropstotherich]

my cousin hates rides that drop like that ( like tower of terror in Disney world ) , and on vacation I told her this was a small roller coaster that had a secret.... when we got on it some idiot behind me said the drop was really scary so I had to cover it up by saying "they must hate roller coasters that go fast" and once we got to the part where it dropped, she asked what was happening and then we did the first drop which scared her and then we did the big freefall drop that almost gave her a

[Dumblol1]

News for you littles waffle monkeys! SW7, despite being years away, has been announced as a 1.4m white knuckle ride and it will have a new secret element! But what could it possibly do now? Well, let's see what's been done... vertical, freefall, tilt, spin, 400ft, 100mph, backwards, 10 invert, 300 freefall tower, multi launches, magnetic power, flying, water coaster, zacspin, 4d.... what's next?

[patdel12]

@Dumblol1 bumper cars

[Deathriken]

thumb up if u reckon the next Secret weapon shud be an underwater coaster of some sort and use that huge lake they have

[addy2503]

Lol at the end,'what do you think to a freefall bench.'

[Emjxxxxxx]

i didnot think it was that good i prefer oblivieon thats brill :P xx

[Dumblol1]

I don't care what people say, Th13teen is my favourite ride! It beat all my expectations and the theming was great! I've been on every ride in cedar point, so I don't go on pussy rides if you think I do :3

[cmor01]

this ride was rubbish..... u fall 7 feet

[cmor01]

its bollocks u fall 7feet

[keykeykay]

Th13teen was a disappointment, and the ultimate coaster quote is not what it is.

[JoeAndTeddy]

I que jumped this ride, as it wasn't worth the 3 hour wait. Its really over rated, the best parts are when you drop and when you shoot backwards. This is a pussy ride compared to nemesis and oblivion. Nemesis is the best ride.

[Matthewmcintee]

@JoeAndTeddy You will be kicked out of the park if you queue jump.

[JoeAndTeddy]

@Matthewmcintee I know, but i didn't.

[FerrariGood]

It was a good rollercoaster, no doubt about it. But it's not all the rides I've ever dreamt about all put into one. =/

[theta82]

LOL @ Raoul Moat shitting his pants @ 0:55

[george902010]

Alton Towers does THE best theming for their rides. EVER!

[twiightmaniac22598]

the drop bit is really scary and its dark. but it is really over rated

[GirlWithBlondeHair]

I stood around for 2 hours waiting to go on this ride and it was rubbish. Compaired to Oblivion this is a baby roller coaster. Its clever how they drop the track and you go backwards up a tunnel in the dark but it really was over hyped.

[littlemissnaughty333]

I agree, my friend went on it and told me it wasent that scary but then i went on the oblivion and they said that was scarier. so i went on the thirteen and i thought it was rubbish too, they made out it was so scary you would shit your sen but i dint think it was scary at all :L

[1DannyOAFC1]

Over hyped to much. Small drop, track falls abit then it goes backwards in the dark. Nemesis is much better.

[iMADEaCUPCAKE]

I love thissssssssssssss!!! <3

[aliBee909]

i've been on it its amazing!!

[kaelum100]

whats the age for this

[gamerok102]

If anyone is about to go soon i recomend this ride me and my mate went on this about 5 times the drop is just fun :D

[Fr0gEyE]

this ride suks baws

[Inrockandrollwetrust]

disapoiting really is.

[AnnaBabezZ]

I went Alton towers today and the que for this was massive but I think it was worth it :)

[freestylefilmsinc]

my brother was one off the designes on this

[Silly12354]

been there .... its awesome =]

[Loobyhelm1986]

there showed this in the light and there do one with another show in the dark,

the tunnel is dark. it was really good, we went on it and its fun the fall the rest could of been more scary but all in all good ride.

[JennaaCaren]

it drops then goes backwards but it doen't show it :/ x

[jampot76]

Long queue (50mins) but good ride. Hype a little too much.. bet then, I didn't see it and I guess they want people to get to the park to see it. When you get off, go ride Rita... and then head off to.... you get where I am coming from.

[Drummer4life4ever827]

here it from me the ride is great but definetely not the best in the park it lasts longer than all the other rollercoaster from the top of the lift hill to the brakes near the end though Air - 55secs Nemesis - 40secs Oblivion - 40 secs Rita - 25 secs Sonic Spinball - 45 secs Th13teen - 65 secs its no the best but definetely the longest (not includin the mine train)

[beestonbadboy76]

is it just me or does this ride look TOTAL PANTS!!!!

[hathhouse]

@beestonbadboy76

yeah lol just looks like basic up and down stuff, although they might have not shown the best bits incase it would spoil the sheer epicness when riding this for yourself, but i dunno....

[TheVloging]

been on that its not scary more fun tbh. (:

[Habboze]

I think it's decent.. Maby the forest could of been done up abit though? It looks like a building sight. I think its more of a 1 thrill ride. You go on it once and think this is great ! but then after that you no whats comeing and you will get bored..

[xXSceneGirl56Xx]

i wouldnt dare be first on that ride incase it goes wrong and breaks and die

[pinapplelover1]

@xXSceneGirl56Xx and plus its called "thirteen" an unlucky number! i agree with you!

[TheMaPHEW]

You dont need to be 16 and you can go on it as many times as you want.

Just to clarify

[XxBeccaMaytexX]

it looks pretty good to meeeeeee

[justcrazyYT]

they said it was for 16 year olds and over, and u can only ride once a day

yeah right

4 year olds could go on that

[greengoblin200]

@justcrazyYT how do they know you've already been on it... ;) im goin next week and will go on it as much as i want. i paid lol

[greensmith999]

A ride for kids.

I can't believe the drops only 60ft and the vertical one is like 10.

They should go back to the drawing board and take notes from thorpe park.

At least saw was pretty good.

[shauny11mufc]

Tbh I think they've hiped it up to be the ultimate thrill rolelr coaster When it's more of an ultimate family roller coaster.

Yes it is a world first liek oblivion was but in my opinion they havn't took it far enough for example, Another theme park will look at th13teen take the technology and make a 100x better one.

[orangejuiced999]

its not that good rlly

[Afrog150]

I have to say that it looks pretty good :D Some people should probably go on it first though before saying it's crap

[paulthedirector]

Well yes, I should say a freefall bench would be a bit more exciting than Th13teen. Especially if you were eating an ice cream.

[TheMorley4]

hey leetobix i will make one on the front seat

[TheMorley4]

i hope its as good as those people make it sound.

[TheMorley4]

i am so excited, i am going there on my birthday!

[fun4everyone100]

It dosnt look scary at all

[liliette73190]

they are still building it at the moment, they, on that day had only done the train plan and now they are putting all the trees and demons and scary sound effects now

[lozlabozla]

it may be a world first but it doesnt mean its the best !!!!

[Knightoftheorient]

Looks shit, dnt even look as scary as Rita!

[UnofficialFotowhizz]

@Knightoftheorient

try it before you comment

[Fitzymedia]

@UnofficialFotowhizz i have tried it and i agree it was not good at all :(

[UnofficialFotowhizz]

@Fitzymedia oh yeah i know its bad but people need to try things before they can criticize them.

[jennifer680100]

hey, how big is the freefall drop? thanks

[ashleigh18v]

@jennifer680100 10ft. The ride os over rated, not as good as i thought it would be.

[xOerbaDiaVanillex]

its about the size of a house (20feet)

[liliette73190]

the drop is actually 60 feet

[Francessxx]

It's not the "best" rollercoaster. It's only a free fall.

[Jaymus21]

looks good, im going there with my school. pretty excited really.

[BIGGZzoO8]

27th im on that ride ;]

[TheLeetobix]

@BIGGZzoO8 film it first person if you can

[BIGGZzoO8]

@TheLeetobix Okay Ill Try :D

[lee200789]

aint it dark in the drop tunnel? thought it was ment to be dark...

[Drummer4life4ever827]

all the lights were put on for the report

[allan4korg]

They left the lights on for the benefit of the camera crew, the lights are off normally, with bursts of strobe lighting...

[lee200789]

@allan4korg ah, right i thought so, just wanted to confirm

[UkViper1]

@lee200789 They lit it for the show

[ZipO8879]

@lee200789 yh but i suppose they didnt want to give a lot away

[coolcabbage43]

@lee200789 It is they just made it light to film in.

[Dumblol1]

@lee200789 this was with the lights on so you could see the drop, on ride special effects are on and lights are OFF

[ziggyame]

@lee200789 Yes it is. When we were recording this all house lights ( Work Lights ) were turned on so you could see us inside the crypt! Other wise the camera would be black... It was real fun to film this! took 2 takes to get this one shot for ITV. all together we got 9 rides!

[owurmoshingonmyfoot]

@lee200789 It is dark, very dark, but I think they left the lights on so that the camera could pick her up more easily. It goes backwards after that bit too.

[BlaZeM200]

@lee200789

light were on 4 camera

[LoveAltonTowers]

@lee200789 it is this was becuse it was a press event and first riders :P

[coastermadboy1]

@lee200789 this is lights on for the people who passed th13teen bootcamp, the actual thing is really dark

[JoeAndTeddy]

@lee200789 yeh, it is.

[Imagineer5986]

@lee200789 they let them test it with the lights on

[TheTechReviewerUk]

@lee200789 yeah it is this is only so you can see what it does for grenada if you ever go to alton towers go on it its really amazing

[jacksite2007]

@lee200789 Yeah, the whole thing wasn't finished then. They were still adding stuff on when I went sometime round then.

[MrGiulioG]

@speedkiller100

OMG how was the ride

wuz it fun wuz it scary

when you drop,what picture

gets flashed into your head?

[THEDONKDEVIL]

it looks wank

[allan4korg]

Yeah, thats why people wait in line for hours, to LOOK at roller-coasters. Normal people ride them before deciding that they hate them.

[THEDONKDEVIL]

did u hear that guy "best ride here" they must of paid him 2 say that.. it looks fuckin wank.. end of !

[SuperAruman]

@THEDONKDEVIL your so cool

[UltraRobbie]

1:22

-Track falls a bit- "Woaah!"

"Haha"

-Track falls all the way- "AAGGGHH!"

xD

[pie4chips]

@UltraRobbie ,Yea i that made me laugh! they shuda let it jus continue droppin!!!

[speedkiller100]

i wemnt on it on the opening day and its absolutely brilliant :D

[stoner662]

i went on it yesterday when it opened and its not as good as it looks

[kaboda317]

amazing!! love the drop tunnel!!!!!!

[kayemoprincess]

I Think This Ride Will Be Better With The Effects On Otherwise Its Boring

[Adamkrr]

oh my god it looks great!

[Adamkrr]

oh my god it looks great!

[MrDeFlitch27]

1:23

wait for it...

[oIVIaGiiKZx]

if you go this year dont wait any longer than half an hour.. i waited 90mins and the ride is like a kiddies ride...

[omii1]

goin on april 24th and i cant wait

[richardjuk]

That presenter is hot! Shame about the ride.

[jayrave4]

Better than the GMTV vid, but come on... not that damn special...the yanks have it so much better than us.

[RedentProductions]

@jayrave4 init ok some of the coasters like jurassic park ride isnt really a coaster but the themeing is immense i love america

[whatyoufuckingwant]

so wanna go on tha

[Drummer4life4ever827]

wow the GMTV version of the spoiler for this ride is sheeeite.

ITV version makes it look much better

[MrGiulioG]

Today's the day

Th13teen the opining

But I'm not going till June

But I still can't wait

[slipknot74217000027]

i have been on it. it is sic. their are special effects so it does look better. i also met john wardley and he said hello.

[iSpeed09]

LOL @ 1:20-1:25

first drop: people are waiting shocked

second drop: SCREAMS!!

[jazzybell140]

wooooo omg i cant wait!! this is definatly a winner!!

[altontoers223]

look very closely at 1:23 there is a flash.... now because the lights were on it did not effect them. the flash is for when you drop it flashes an image right in your face witch stays there for about 4 secs you also get sprayed with water when going backwords

[chris46hotmail]

i think that's just the ride photo...

[RedentProductions]

no offense yh but that looks shit ok it will be a great coaster with the drop thing but the rest looks really boring

[MatsukeVividdreamer]

Looks awesome!

[danielhoward1996]

you have to be 16 to ride this its nothing stupid

[amiee110689]

things always look diffrent when u watch them. you just experience the rollercoaster for your self. i carnt wait go on the 30th march. hope you all av a good day when you go alton towers..

[maverickpoint]

wow this ride is nuttss!!!!

i wish they showed the backward part!!!

Gah i wanna ride it :D

[KindHeartedPsycho]

Ok....so there's something in between the drop that they didn't show....ok....

[Wanglestick]

@KindHeartedPsycho It goes backwards through tunnels in the building, till it reaches a point just outside the loading area, where the track switches and the car is accelerated into the station :)

[sparky30368]

It looks ok, I'll ride it when I get round to visiting the park maybe later this year or next year. The layout should be longer in the trees section with more airtime hills n helex's.

What AT really needs is a wooden roller coastermade by GCI or GG.

[corkscrewfoley]

@sparky30368 Screw GCI! What I really want is that damned valley woodie that Intamin was going to do...

[airwickedaltontowers]

Woah im going on that on the 8th of April ;)

[shaunpie]

we were told to by film crew.. :/

[socadeejay]

None of the effects were working....but i spoke to john at the hotel the evening before we went on it and he said it will be ready for saturday!

The drop track section is awesome, we did it in the dark and with lights on so when i see it with the effects it will have even more going for it! :oD

[jackster137]

What happens after the drop?

[Bobstaa1984]

i thought the GMTV report made this ride look naff and i was proper gutted as id waited so long... now i have watched this and im suddenly excited again... roll on 26th when i get to ride it

[shaunpie]

Bad talk by bad kids - this things a winner. :)

[Bigdave151985]

I cannot see what all the bad talk is about. Seems like a cool coaster and apparently alot of effects are still not working but should be running before the weekend.

[socadeejay]

HAHA IM IN THIS VIDEO!......SWING!

[darkmater101]

Brillaint

[enIslander]

Now *that's* how you advertise a rollercoaster. Take note, GMTV...

[darkmessenger84]

Yeah the GMTV report was mediocre
