i haven't ridden hurricane condor but ive ridden apocalypse and its 180 ft not 100 ft and on the stand up cars they are tilted and you're pushed down not jjust dropped. being pushed is wayy more forceful.
did he seriously just say the apocalypse is better then the hurakan condor in portaventura.... are you well in the head ... hurakan condor is one of the worlds highest drop towers in the world and have slanted seats aswel and gose 3 time the hieght
@MrLyneJonas: Yes Hurricane Condor is higher, but it's forceless. You get 'float time' on Hurricane Condor, while on Apocalypse it feels much more forceful as it pushes you to the ground. That's my opinion and I'm entitled to it.
@MrLyneJonas you noow tht apocalypse does av slanted seats aswell, but not from the start of the ride, when it sets off it slants forward soo yehh "/ and appocalypse is betterr
@CherylxRosie i never said it didnt did i.. and were entitled to our own opinions and thats mine.. wow the apocalypse is only like 100ft the hurakan condor is 379ft.. and its more frightning... which is better and thats your opinion if you think the apocalypse is better.good for u i dont care! il bet u havt even been on hurakan condor so i dno why your jumpin to conclusions when you havnt been on it? just becus the acocalypse is in england and ur prob english thts why it better to u!
@bobmcree yeah BRITAINS dick head .. and whta difference does it make that it was the 1st..wow hurakan can be the 2nd...hurakan is still scaryier and better nd i know because i have gone on both and thats my opinion so now fuck off
i say alton towers is betta cause they have rides that have never been done before like air,oblivian, nemesis,rita the queen of speed and th13teen! and i mean g force give me a break
i beg to differ but drayton manor is better, i've never been to alton towers but from what i've seen alton towers isnt very family friendly and the rides always break down, AND it was voted as britains WORST day out. so yeah, drayton manor gets my vote.
i have to say hurakan doesnt have the same feeling as apolclypse! but usually if i get adrelined up before a ride it doesnt always feel asgood! i would still rather go on hurakan tho, just better atmosphere.. [the que isnt very good tho]
i went there for a school trip on the 13th july 09
and i went on all the rides they are awsome, apocolypse is cool but the feeling coming down is weaird and i went in the zoo i saw they monkey lynx and owls but barley any animal was out . went into the reptail bit and i saw the snakes and i saw the huge turtle and when looked at the small turtles 1 was mating and it jiggled then stopped opened it mouth really wide then carryed on it was funny as hell.
Why do people insist on comparing Alton Towers to Drayton Manor? Alton Towers is owned by one of the largest theme park companies in the world, and Drayton Manor is a family owned/run park. Clearly Alton Towers has much more money thrown at it, so it's unfair to make the comparison. If you must compare Drayton, you need to compare it to another UK family run/owned park such as Lightwater Valley.
i went to drayton manor with my scool and i felt really sick, so i stupidly went on the apocolypse with my friends and i was sick non stop and people were in stiches;$ hahhaaa xxxxx
i went yesterday and i sat on the back of storm force 10 as i didnt realise i wd get soaked i was fine until the going backwards bit !!!!!!!!!!!! nice vid xD
On Apocalypse, I went on the sitting down one and then the standing up one. I so wanted to go on the one where you're just held by your harness, but they wouldn't let me. =(
You probably would. I found Apocalypse just as good as Maelstrom, but if you hate getting a "sinking" feeling when you fall in your stomach then don't go on it. G Force is great - Totally safe. I put my hands up all the way around and didn't slip. Shockwave is good as well: Very fun to ride. =)
haha ok thanks, right now i wouldnt mind, i cant wait to go on them, but once im standing in front i never do! then come back home and regret it! annoying lol x
wow this video is a lopvely video and thats what i was looking for!!!!!!!! thankyou friday the 22 may 09 (tomorow) i'm going drayton manor with my school y6
Hey (it's me in the video) - I have been on Tidal Wave at Thorpe Park many times and you don't get anywhere near as wet as you do on Stormforce 10 on the back row. Don't get me wrong - sit at the front and Tidal Wave is wetter, sit at the back of Stormforce 10 and you may aswell jump in the lake! The only thing that comes close that I've riden is Hydro at Oakwood Park!
o Right.. Cause Ive Been On It Like 5 Times When I Was At School AndA Couple More Times With Family And I Thought its stoped for about 2 seconds like oblivon at alton towers but guess i was wrong
Is it true that sit down apocoalypse isnt half as scary as stand up? I wanted to go on stand up but my mates were 2scared to :L i have sit dow tho (: Which is scarier stand up wiv floor or stand up wiv no floor?
Ye thanks but ive already gone it now lol. However i thinks it SO AMAZING n i love it and i think its just as scary as sit down which is scary tbh but thanks neway.
i love drayton manor im going in 3 months with my best friend and her brother my brothers are coming aswell and my bffs mum is coming my mum is coming and my dad is coming so quite a lot of swag to pay but its worth the money
not many rides theyre though alton towers eats it though and that stand up rollercoaster i almost fell out im 6 ft.. it needs knocking down 12 people died on it already..this park sucks ass in my opinion im guna stick to alton towers and all tussards
1: No-one has died on Shockwave, in fact there has never been a single accident at the park.
2: The park doesn't suck, in comparison to larger parks it may not be as good but this park is far from poor. In fact; Alton Towers is inferior to parks like Busch Gardens and PortAventura.
3: Alton Towers isn't owned by Tussauds, same with Thorpe and Chessington. They're owned by Merlin.
In my opinion yes. Don't get me wrong Hurricane Condor is a great ride - and the height itself makes it brilliant. But once it starts to drop it's really just 'float time' that you get. Apocalypse may be half the height, but it feels so much more forecful than HC. You'll see what I mean after you've ridden both. Let me know if you agree.
You can't really compare the 2 parks. Alton Towers is owned by Merlin, one of the biggest players in the theme park industry. Drayton Manor is still privately owned so for a privately owned park they're doing very well!
i went there yesterday it was quite gd actually but alton towers is a lil bit better cos theres mopre rides , i went on all of the thrill rides they were awesome - btw gd vid.
I don't suppose you could tell me what song that is could you? =). Also, good vid of the theme park. Definitely got some good shots of the better attractions there.

claree50 3 years ago
Well firstly yes standup is scarier then sit down , as you tilt at a 45 degree angle, its alot faster due to it being a hevier carrage.
But i would say stand up floorless is scarier, but you cant feal your legs, cause it cvuts off the blood circulation.

In my opinion yes. Don't get me wrong Hurricane Condor is a great ride - and the height itself makes it brilliant. But once it starts to drop it's really just 'float time' that you get.
