"There's nothing worse than the sound of screaming chavs gliding above your head, as you dig into your treasured picnic basket" I think that's the funniest thing I've ever heard! Great video man, very interesting.
Can I be controversial and say that the cross valley woodie wouldn't have been that great? Sure the two major drops are cool but the rest of the layout (based on the recreations people made) seems slow and boring. I like the fact the valley is still untouched and hope it remains that way!
All I keep imagining is 2 El Toro style drops into the valley, and that's enough to sell it for me 🤣 I don't think it would've ruined the view that much either. Especially if it was all kept beneath tree height 🙂👍
There is a precedent for massive woodies being crap. El Toro splits opinion, the Beast is shite, the less said about Son Of Beast the better, and look at how many coasters like Mean Streak built in the 70s,80s and 90s have ended up as RMCs because they became unmanageable as standard woodies
I have often felt that it would be a good idea to have another row of seats facing backwards on Oblivion. Imagine falling backwards into that hole. 👍🏴🇬🇧🤠
Right hear me out. A whole car on oblivion that’s backwards would be amazing. Thorpe Park should bring in backwards seats on nemesis and please, please add flat rides to alton.
Screwy loops, you are an incredible RUclips creator from the editing, to the jokes and character. Every video is complete to a very entertaining standard and I speak for many when we say we are grateful!. Although I can’t speak for you I want to say to never focus on numbers and statistics etc, because I know for certain that if your Channel wasn’t based on something so specific, you would be super popular! :)
Thank you so, so much! ☺️ That means a hell of a lot to me, cheers for that buddy! Numbers are numbers, but it's comments like this which really make it worth it, so thank you 🙌
I still want my cross valley coaster, maybe use something quiet instead of wood, coz you have an amazing woodie now, like a Mack that could even weave through trees with launches - Imagine ICON at alton towers but with spinning cars maybe and through the valley and connect forbidden valley to dark forest coaster-wise, itd feel like the big one does in terms of length - the theme is the journey. I found myself lucky to be alive recently, so I was thinking of things ti fight for and I remembered this as something I wished I could see one day in some form.
I actually wish we had the woodie and the pipeline coaster. They would be so unique. You should do a PB on. The spinning coaster, family coaster to replace the streak and the bigger one are all ones that come to mind.
If I'm not wrong, Stampida from PortAventura was originally planned for Alton Towers. Makes sense as it's a quite compact but intense ride that doesn't surpass the treeline much. I could be wrong but I remember reading it somewhere and saw some concept art of Stampida from CCI mentioning Alton Towers.
This is really interesting, I was only aware of Secret Weapons 1&2. The bit about the Nemesis river gave me a good laugh too. The valley wooden coaster sounded really cool but with how special that area is to the past Earls and present wildlife I'm kind of glad it wasn't placed there. Still, there's no reason they can't wipe out some of the worse attractions, dig another pit and build it there 😂 they could even cover it over like the Black Hole for another dark coaster, and it would reduce the noise pollution.
Hope to go here in 2021 if I can alongside my local Folly Farm and Oakwood as well as a trip to the three parks of Great Yarmouth. I would love to get on Nemesis, Smiler and Wicker Man over the others but I would love to get on everything there
That Schwarzkopf would have been really cool. Would it have been next to the Corkscrew? The booster brooms could probably have taken Th13teen's theming quite nicely. And put the drop track at the end of Wickerman
Honestly they could have just not rethemed Air to Galactica, although it is fun to ride it in VR, after that one time you do it’s more fun to not wear the headset
That didn’t just use TNT they drilled downwards to place the explosives far underground that is why on the rock face the other side of the vertical loop there is lines going down from where Eddie killing drilled I know this Because my grandad was one of them
Nice one Chris 👌🏼They binned a cross valley woody and built those ridiculous star gazing pods , how bizarre 🤪. This Saturday is 2 years since the Icon press day , what a day 🤩🤩. Can’t believe me n Al haven’t been back since 😢👍🏼🧱
A great vid Chris thanks 4 sharing so many hidden gems . BTW remember it's mind and mental illness awareness week if you suffer or your alone in this lock down your not alone there is support and networks reach out and check in with friends and family or you tubers thanks guys peace x
I would have loved the cross valley to be two coasters one each way so also doubling as a transit system ie. a station at the Dark Forest and another station at Forbidden Valley.
Well, the cross valley coaster might happen now. Merlin designers and John wardley were seen on the site of where the coaster was going to be. Also RMC follow the parks where they have built coasters except for one account which just so happens to be Alton towers. If you put two and two together. Cross valley RMC as the UK's first RMC.
Is it bad that I still want a cross-valley rollercoaster in the park? Instead of having it be wooden, just make it unique by making it an RMC Raptor single-rail track! The small size and footprint can add to the thrill as you whiz down the valley in a single-seat car on a 10-car train. Boom. SW9. Dunno what to theme it as, honestly. It could either be broomsticks, dinosaurs, or motorbikes. Besides, Spinball Whizzer and Galactica feel lonely, so the theme should at least feel welcoming and safer compared to Wicker Man and the Smiler.
Honestly the booster broom is genius i would personally replace rita with it the whole racing theme of rita really doesn't match the aesthetic of the area
Thunderlooper was actually removed because it had temporary planning permission that ended in 1996. The balloon was cancelled not because if the tree height issue. A hot air balloon is not subject to the same restrictions as a building or structure as it is not permanent fixture on the landscape. So not sure why it got cancelled. Also, it is pretty certain the Broomstick coaster plans were fake. Like the jazzland ones.
It seems so strange Alton doesn't have an RMC. Alton Towers always seemed to be way ahead of the curve in coaster trends, an argument could be made that Alton Towers set the trend for a long time.
Random one, but apparently, they've been told off a few times for manipulating the rules, including going above tree height and then going for retrospective planning. Personally, I don't see that much of an issue, what would the locals say if they erected a tower block? THAT would be an eyesore.
I found out that thorpe was meant to get a new coaster this year but then there rides manager turned on merlin and tried to get logers back so he was fired and now we need to wait
They need to clear out the rapids it’s old and worn out and boring! Half the time the fountains or falls aren’t even on! More like a lazy river! Then there would be loads of space and depth to do something good
I think it is time that Alton towers compulsary purchased all the properties in Alton villiage the villigers dont care that the theme park gives allot of money to the local economy. to be honest the villiage of alton looks like a tip anyway there is nothing beautiful about it. so lets get a petition going so that the towers buy the villiage out !
‘They have the bar set so high, the neighbors complain about being able to see it’
Legendary, just legendary
"There's nothing worse than the sound of screaming chavs gliding above your head, as you dig into your treasured picnic basket" I think that's the funniest thing I've ever heard! Great video man, very interesting.
🤣🤣🤣
Thanks mate! 🙂👍
Th13teen, reply if you're okay. You got a lot of bullying in this video and I need you to know you have people that care about you.
🤣🤣🤣
He said he’s okay
LOL i love th13teen tbh
Solid ride
My mum loves Th13teen even though she is a wuss
Alton Towers: let's make a Giga!
Also Alton Towers: We dug a big ass hole to fit it! Deepest roller coaster in the world! SW9
If it was the 90's I wouldn't put it past them 🤣👍 they loved digging big ass holes then!
Imagine that lifthill at the end
A Giga coaster called melt down that is built into the crust of the earth melts its riders into a puddle. Very thrilling.
Use a launch system to get it back above ground and no need to worry about tree hight 👍🏴🇬🇧🤠
@@pooey Too bad the "Scaring people with extreme heat" gimmick is used by Wicker Man.
Can I be controversial and say that the cross valley woodie wouldn't have been that great? Sure the two major drops are cool but the rest of the layout (based on the recreations people made) seems slow and boring. I like the fact the valley is still untouched and hope it remains that way!
All I keep imagining is 2 El Toro style drops into the valley, and that's enough to sell it for me 🤣 I don't think it would've ruined the view that much either. Especially if it was all kept beneath tree height 🙂👍
It would also be rough as hell at the bottom of the drops
ScrewyLoops if it was like el toro only built into the valley it would’ve been incredible
@@scpslfreak1353 i like a good rough woodie
There is a precedent for massive woodies being crap. El Toro splits opinion, the Beast is shite, the less said about Son Of Beast the better, and look at how many coasters like Mean Streak built in the 70s,80s and 90s have ended up as RMCs because they became unmanageable as standard woodies
I have often felt that it would be a good idea to have another row of seats facing backwards on Oblivion. Imagine falling backwards into that hole. 👍🏴🇬🇧🤠
It would be terrifying! 😨
“Backlash from enthusiasts” This happens with almost every new coaster that isn’t Steel Vengeance or a crazy Intamin.💀
I'm kinda glad non of these happened coz we may not have had alot of the ace coasters we have today!
That is a fantastic way of looking at it! ☺️👍
This is a brilliant vid I’d love to see a Thorpe park version of this 🙂
Thank you! ☺️👍
I'd like to see that as well
I live in the same village as Alton and I’ve never actually heard the rides just traffic gets busy
LOL. How are the cows?
Shame we couldn’t have a B&M or intamin hyper where that woodie was going to go 😂🤷♂️ great video! 😃🎢
Thanks mate! ☺️👍 Or RMC... 👀
ScrewyLoops if only 😂
You can never go wrong with a-wait,wrong video.
I met you once at Alton towers hotel. You seem like an nice guy.
Keep up the good work this video is awesome.
You wasn't one of the guys I stole a chair from, was you? 😅 Thanks mate, that means a lot! ☺️
@@ScrewyLoops lol yeah possibly - it was packed!
Any time you need s chair gimme a shout lol
Haha 🤣 will do man! 👍👍
“We are a bunch of savages”-genius
This is my favourite video of yours so far. The confidence in your voice shows how far youve come, and the editing was amazing and so smooth!
Thanks mate, that means a lot! ☺️👍
Alton towers:we cant have loud noises
Also alton towers:TNT!
💥💥💥
Right hear me out. A whole car on oblivion that’s backwards would be amazing. Thorpe Park should bring in backwards seats on nemesis and please, please add flat rides to alton.
This video but Thorpe
You know you want to...
I've seen Thorpe pop up a few times... 👀
I think I know what to do 😎

@@ScrewyLoops well done on 11.5k subs hope your doing ok , day 70 in lockdown
I still want the cross-valley coaster to happen, but as a B&M hyper.
We can dream my friend ❤️
I would have loved the cross valley to be two coasters one each way so also doubling as a transit system ie. a station at the Dark Forest and another station at Forbidden Valley.
I've always imagined something like this for any park in general 😅 it would be such a cool idea!
Hey there
Hi! 🙂👋
Phil Swift hello
You've just given me some ideas for some new art thanks for this.
Nice vid mate
Thank you! ☺️👍
i should say, some of these cancelled rides should get built in the future.
Love ur vids man!
Thank you! ☺️👍
I'm happy my comments on your community post were correct
Great fun, as always. Thanks Chris.
Thanks Grady! ☺️ Glad you enjoyed it! 👍

Rock On..safe travels
Cheers buddy! 😊👍
Good information video mate, I can see why your editing was doing your head in 😂😂
Thanks mate! ☺️👍 Yeah, this one was a killer 🤣
Please do Chessington or Thorpe Park! Great video!
Thanks buddy! ☺️👍
Your welcome! That zip wire looks insane!
Great vid mate tho
Thanks buddy! 😁👍
It’s been so long since going to a theme park I’ve stopped watching red tube and just watching various povs.
🤣🤣🤣 As you do
Is it bad that I still want a cross-valley rollercoaster in the park? Instead of having it be wooden, just make it unique by making it an RMC Raptor single-rail track! The small size and footprint can add to the thrill as you whiz down the valley in a single-seat car on a 10-car train. Boom. SW9.

This would be so cool! Not gonna lie 🙂👍
When I saw the title I thought this was about rollercoasters that were not opening because of the pandemic
Oh nonono 😱🤣
Would have been a short video lol
Honestly the booster broom is genius i would personally replace rita with it the whole racing theme of rita really doesn't match the aesthetic of the area
My prediction for sw9 is an rmc raptor
Everybody stay well
really interesting video and a super original concept
Thanks! 🙂👍
10:52 why is there a duck
Because... Flume? 🤔🤷♂️
8:23 THERE IS A WIENER ON THE TOP LEFT OF THIS COASTER LAYOUT.
The first coaster looked amazing it’s a shame they didn’t do it.
I thought enchanted village was there...
It is, this was an expansion of the Enchanted Village 🙂👍
ScrewyLoops oh... I don’t concentrate
Such a shame about wooden coaster over valley. Annoying locals
If you dont wanna hear the screams of alton towers, dont live in alton. Simole equations.
Hey Screwy can you do a Before You Ride on Nemesis Inferno
great vid please do the cancelled rides of blackpool pleasure beach .

You should do the Disney Parks. I bet there are 5 million ideas by Walt Disney that never made it because of finances or other reasons.
Damnnn, a launched coaster would’ve been way better than 13.
Bet lightwater valley will have a lot as they never build them anymore lol
It seems so strange Alton doesn't have an RMC. Alton Towers always seemed to be way ahead of the curve in coaster trends, an argument could be made that Alton Towers set the trend for a long time.

Are you seriously saying there never was an RMC planned that didnt happen
I'm pretty sure John Wardley would be fighting for an RMC these days 🙂👍
Love the Alton vids mate
Cheers buddy! ☺️👍
I remember reading about the broom coaster, I bet the theming would have been amazing.
Lisebergsbanan was great! I havent ridden it in over 20 years thou..
Cool vid
Thank you! ☺️👍
What do the locals expect! They live next to a theme park!!!
Why do people, live near theme parks when they know there going to make noise
I like alton towers, like if you do.....
I do
What does it mean if I ❤️ the comment 🤔🤔

Cancelled rides of Efteling, Europa Park, or Chessington?
