I remember in year 5 we went on a trip here and people in my class went on it and I was like how the heck and why would u go on it- one kid was sick afterwards and only like 2 people liked it the others absolutely hated it
I used to ride this but it only went because of the smiler crash I did not mind it but unlike Rameses Revenge which is closed now you don’t get splashed on its ride like as much as you do on Rameses revenge.
I rode this 4 times in a row once 😂 What happened to it ? Anyone know ? Edit : when i was 13 i loved it ! Was my favourite . me aged 29 : it was old ! imagine if the safety belts opened 😂 goner
Hot summers day of probably 98 and whilst queuing for this ride a girl with the biggest bells went on in a tight white top, during the face down section her assets escaped and where duly covered in water. Luckily for her only a few thousand people where watching and cheering back in the days when doing such a thing wasn’t a sex crime. This made a 16 year old lad very happy. RIP Ripsaw, forever a fond memory.
That ride then is shit. When I went on it, it flipped you constantly and lasted alot longer than that. it rolled like twice just then through the whole thing. Never used to be that crap
@@danielledewitt1 same name lmao but not because they couldn’t be bothered just because the maintinance of a top spin ride is very hard it is an old ride which didn’t last long as much as it is iconic it would have cost them more and more as the years went on
@@CoasterView oh ok because I thought that it was due to smiler incident because "The Flume" closed permanently at the end of the 2015 season to make room for Wicker Man which opened in 2018
This was a great ride....I went to Alton Towers recently and quite frankly it is awful. They are doing what Blackpool have been doing for 20 years....building roller coaster after roller coaster. I long for my younger years and to visit these places again. Alton Towers and BPB are a quarter of what they used to be.I won't be going to these two places again.
Shame this has gone, forbidden valley will seem quiet without the water constantly on now
It's now called R.I.Psaw
Get it?
Joker ouch that hurt
I was literally thinking of commenting that when I clicked on the video!
What happend, it's not at alton anymore is it
@@molliefisher2949 no
I was gutted when I found out this was gone. I loved it.
I wish Ripsaw still operated. They really need it in their lineup. Good as it was, though, it's not as food as Talocan
I can't believe they got rid of this ride 😢 I'll miss the sound of the water spouts hittng the water. Sounds like a steam train ❤
R.I.P Ripsaw
- ---- we will never forget you
It also has rip in it
R.I.PSAW
This would have been one of my favourite rides if I had went on it while it was still open
I'm sad that this doesn't operate, my friend said she loved this one and it does look very good
Eva Wollaston i loved this ride i am so sorry you missed out it might be your karma
Love it. This was always my fave ride to watch so this video is perfect 🔥
Guided By Angels why did you not ride it?
@@timothywait9457 im.a scaredy cat lol 😃
I remember this being there but never rode it as I don’t like spinny rides 🤢 but it was a really good ride to watch everyone else go on!!
they repleced it with a little inflatible thing you can rent for birthday party for haft the price of a alton towers ticket! 😠
I'm sure they'll have something planned, haven't been to Alton Towers in awhile. Ripsaw was getting old, so many rides on it.
I know shit right lol
stevie smith kk
no way I prefer inflatable things
I think I only saw ripsaw once in 2014 and it looked quite scary
Ive always thought that Ripsaw could do with some theme music when going round. When it was open of course.
Can't believe they've shut it down :( that was my favourite ride
YRAStabby me to
I'm sure they'll have something planned, haven't been to Alton Towers in awhile. Ripsaw was getting old, so many rides on it.
RIP Ripsaw, at least theres still Rameses Revenge at Chessington, its now been replaced by Wasteland Bash show
there is no longer rameses revenge
@CrashPirate01 RAMAESES REVENGE IS GONE??!! NO WAYYYY 😭 they lost some great rides like rameses and bubbleworks
and then the chessington one got replaced with a new drop ride called croc drop
I remember in year 5 we went on a trip here and people in my class went on it and I was like how the heck and why would u go on it- one kid was sick afterwards and only like 2 people liked it the others absolutely hated it
Nina Moyes it was an ok ride no where near as intense as the traveling fairground virsion Top spin
Brilliant camera quality for 9 years ago , hats off 👏
Believe it or not, many of us had 1080p video cameras as far back as 2008. Let that sink in :)
...and whats even better, is that 9 years ago was 2014 where many of us were already had 4k as well :P
THAT LOOKS SO FREAKING FUN
Really? Because when I go to alton towers it looks got rid of to me.
Keeno747 what was your favourite past ride at Alton towers
Thankfully, they have a ride exactly like this at Chessington.
Yes, fortunately, it's called Rameses Revenge or something like that.
Unfortunately, that too is gone now
That squeak at 2.22 was defo the reason for its shut down lmaoooo... great ride though
They used to have this at Coney Island years ago under a different name but it went so much faster.
Great this. Needs brought back
Top spin rides are sick although their duration isn't super long most of the time.
The noise of this ride is so so scary I thought it was gunna brake
Bye ripsaw for a few years
Gymtastic Kyan Goodbye ripsaw forever.
Danielle Dewitt I heard it’s going to a new park
Adhd Gaming yeah it’s been replaced by a float boat. :( it was boring
Adhd Gaming Only as spare parts that is a copy cat idea they stole from alton towers aka ramseys revenge.
Danielle Dewitt i think ramesis is older than ripsaw
Rest in peace Saw
Rip in peace, Ripsaw.
Great video 👍
RIP Ripsaw
According to someone I met, this ride was shut down because it actually cut people sometimes.
I think someone was telling you lies hahaha
+keeno747 lol, I actually was a bit confused of what he said myself xD
I worked at AT for many years. There's no way it could cut anyone. It was just there for a long time and they wanted the space - it was near Air.
It came to the end of its operating life that is all. It had a major mechanical failure and was uneconomical to repair.
Goodbye I hate people who tell lies.
I miss this ride. 😔
Did this go to another park
lauren bowers
Yes Heidepark Resort There but not built serves as a spare part donor
Angelo Schneider I read it went to chessington world of adventures for spare parts for ramses revenge.
This ride looks so bloody scary
I used to ride this but it only went because of the smiler crash I did not mind it but unlike Rameses Revenge which is closed now you don’t get splashed on its ride like as much as you do on Rameses revenge.
Not smilers fault they couldn’t be bothered looking after it.
Why did this have to close ugh
Sequence complete :(
Or 2020 they will get ripsaw back
Junaid Khan No they won’t.
This comment is so tragic man-
I rode this 4 times in a row once 😂
What happened to it ?
Anyone know ?
Edit : when i was 13 i loved it ! Was my favourite .
me aged 29 : it was old ! imagine if the safety belts opened 😂 goner
i got taken down :(
I think wicker man replaced the flume and ripsaw. Not 100% sure if it replaced ripsaw tho
@@shadify112yearsago2 idk but wicker man is no where near ripsaw
@@donald984 ye true
@@donald984 I never got to go on ripsaw cos i wasnt old enough lol

Kmotch it should have been cold Titsaw that day
this comment was 2 years ago but i fucking love it
I cannot believe I ever went on this ride 🤢
I got soaked on this
R.I.Psaw 😥
Why not you go on it lol
I’ve ALLWAYS want d to ride this but I can’t 😔
wickergirl 123 aww why not
wickergirl 123 top spin at the fairs are beater
Just your friendly neighbourhood Spider-Man Let me give you a clue. When was the last time you tried to go on a ride a park got rid off?
That ride then is shit. When I went on it, it flipped you constantly and lasted alot longer than that. it rolled like twice just then through the whole thing. Never used to be that crap
Why did it get removed?
They decided they didn’t want it because they couldn’t be bother looking after it.

@@danielleb7089 Exactly, they simply couldn’t be bother the lazy pigs.
@@danielledewitt1 Nope, they closed it to spare the parts for another ride. wasnt about maintaining it
this ride closed due to a serious incident on the smiler
no it did not, The reason ripsaw closed was to provide parts for the HUSS topspin at heide park
@@CoasterView oh ok
because I thought that it was due to smiler incident because "The Flume" closed permanently at the end of the 2015 season to make room for Wicker Man which opened in 2018
Loki Tops Well you thought wrong. The smiler crash was human error so leave Smiler out of it.
Loki Tops Smiler is at the other end of the park in X sector this was in Forbidion valley
This was a great ride....I went to Alton Towers recently and quite frankly it is awful. They are doing what Blackpool have been doing for 20 years....building roller coaster after roller coaster.

Wtf is wrong with you? Alton Towers is amazing. The Smiler is one of the best coasters ever, Nemesis, Rita, Wicker Man, Oblivion, all great rides.
Posh Bob Go aay you troll. Or maybe your a whimp.
Posh bob i liked ripsaw to but its only a support ride its good that they have more coasters
R.i.p
r.i.p :(
RIPsaw
Now there ain't anything there
Yes
R.I.Psaw
I swear this is in chessington
pheobe Ellott that was Ramesises Revenge
Hi mahad
COME BACK
That shit spinning harder than my ex bitch...
r.i.psaw
I was too young for the towers
Void Raidex Age has nothing to do with it. It’s all height.
Danielle Dewitt ik I was literally 5 and like 2 feet tall lol
Void Raidex So why say you was too young?
Danielle Dewitt idk lol
Pixltry there is no such ride as the towers
sadly it went away now like awwww
no way ur getting me on this glad its gone
Ive been on this about 7 years ago and i was swearing my head off
it is my frovret reid
Not anymore it’s not.
That looks fucking horrible
Erin Armstrong it was good
when Donald Trump pukes on someone (me) a small loan of a million vomits?
That was the most pathetic top spin ride I’ve ever seen. And with a name like ripsaw you’d expect a little craziness.
I am so glad I didn't go on this the last time I went to Alton Towers (May 2002) I would've vomited, nemesis was bad enough.
Soon they will get ripsaw back probably by the 2030s
Junaid Khan Ripsaw is gone, gone as in gone for good. It is never coming back.
Junaid Khan do not be silly i was 30 when this ride open'd and iabout 44 when they took it down
No thanks!
Tracey You can’t anyway.
Why can't I ???
Tracey Because ripsaw can’t cut it anymore. It’s gone.
Oh.........………..….........Ok
Tracey Some now call it R.I.Psaw.
Let’s bring back Ripsaw let us ride it forever ❤😂
It’s probably scrap metal in pieces now.
@@danielledewitt1 sad to hear a huss machine gone to scra metal
@@Scatter101s Well it was old.
@@danielledewitt1 yes agreed
