i once went on 13 with my friend who had never been to Alton and when we got to the drop track I said that's it were done now and his face was priceless when we dropped
Did the same thing to my mate, just before we went in I said it was done. Then right before it dropped I went "oh btw do you like drops?" She punched me after we got off. Worth it! 😂
That’s my favorite ride
When I went on Oblivion, I had made a deal with my friends that because I didn't go on smiler, I had to go on Oblivion. I froze, my friends kept asking whether I was okay and I told them not to touch me and don't say a word. I stared into the abyss of the drop and didn't scream, just stared like I was gonna die because that's how I felt😂
"the smiler never fails to give a good experience" .... well except for that one time
bro 💀💀
you didnt.. 😮
@@leopardlovesfdvnooo am going their on Friday
LOL 😂
Oops you infected me with smiles again 😂
Great to see the Smiler make the top of the list! When I was in Florida a couple weeks ago, it's the ride everyone talks about in the UK and people from other countries rank it so much higher than most of us Brits do
Absolutely love that ride - I feel with it being in our country we say it's much worse than it actually is 😂🔥
dont fucking spoil it
@@jackshingler7443 chiil out man
My middle is Rita
@JACK SHINGLER don’t swear wth
I love 13 so much cause the first time i rode it the backwards part caught me so off guard and it made me cautious of every other ride for the rest of the day. Definitely a good ride to start on if your bringing friends whove never been
I was so happy when you said smiler was number one. Such an unappreciated gem. But still the burger kitchen will always be the best ride so yea
The burger kitchen 😭😂
Personally I think Rita is underrated. Lots of positive G's, fast launch, airtimeless 'airtime' hills. If you like speed and positive G's, its a good ride.
I hit my head from the wind every time I go on it
I have slated it a lot more than it deserved to be fair, it's a good little coaster! 🔥
@@DigitalDan Just don’t be that guy that doesn’t have put their head back, saw that happen to someone on stealth. Their head was pushed off the side of the headrest!! Just take that advice, and maybe put your had in front of your face and you’ll have a great ride.
Minus the trip to the sky. This ride looks to be just as badass as stealth is. Alton towers it is. I've never been. Going this Friday 27th.
I got scared more on rita then any ride because of that launch. Is it weak compared to others, yes. But it was my first launch and I was not expecting it lol.
My top 10:
10: Mixtape (RIP)
9: Runaway Mine Train (choo-choo)
8: Spinball Whizzer (Washing Machine Simulator)
7: Rita (Fast… worst name for a ride tho)
6: Th13teen (Absolute awesome, but we need to talk about that first drop more tho)
5: Galactica (Relaxing if anything
4: Oblivion (87 degree Dive Coaster)
3: Wicker Man (best woodie ever)
2: Smiler (Marmalad- iser)
1: Nemesis ( ZeRo G rOlL wOw)
Imagine how much better World of David Walliams turned out to be a Horrible Histories world.
Ok that would be EPIC!!! 😆😆😆
Nahh
Ikr, the dark ride would be going back in time
I would live in alton towers
God yes
I cAnt wait to go🎉🎉🎉
As someone who hasn’t seen this yet, I bet that reta will be his favorite ride
You were correct! 😂😂
Something to watch while waiting in hospital. Thanks Dan 👍
Hope you're doing okay 🙏🏻
13 is a really pleasant ride to ride, I'm not gonna pretend the stopping dropping and going backwards doesn't feel a little tired at this point but the part through the woods is actually super enjoyable for me
Same here! I think it shouldve been a little higher on the list but meh
Its just kinda boring, maybe because I rode it after i did galactica, nemesis and Rita but I just don’t know it’s missing something
Haha, Smiler, Oblivion and Spinball Whizzer are the best!! I went on the Oblivion twice, My friend passed out on it, On Spinball Whizzer, All you could hear in the background was my boyfriend screaming, I wasn’t even on the same cart as him 😂 and The Smiler, I passed out 3 times, 1st time being before we got outside, second was going through the first loop and the last time being just before the 90ft drop. What was the First rollarcoaster in my life? The smiler! Fave place in the world!
We're going in a few weeks and im trying to get myself hyped up
Amazing list and editing style, I love this channel.
i love this, most of the other people who list stuff are boring and i cba to watch them but you add a funny twist to it and i love that :)
My top 10 are
10.Hex
9.Runaway mine train
8.th13teen
7.spinball whizzer
6.Rita
5.Oblivion
4.galactica
3.wicker man
2.nemesis
1.The smiler
I've been here twice nd loved it every time
I went to Alton towers a month ago and went on the wicker man thinking that it was overrated. Absolutely not I loved every second of it
Great video
Awesome theme park
Sitting on the back of Thirteen when it goes down those hills is so fun, I just wish there was more backwards bit. I can never decide if I prefer Nemesis or The Smiler, just bloody love them both, really hope the retrack if Nemesis doesn't do it dirty 🙏 but I do think The Wickerman is either too rough or too fast for the type of trains, if it had headrests it would be fine but the first time I went on it it jolted or something and my head smacked the back of he chair, I'm not even sure how but that was a nice lil headache for the rest of the day - and I'm only 5"10 so I can't imagine how rough it feels if you're taller
NEMESIS HAS SHUT I WAS CRYING
I get really excited when I see you upload
Enjoyed watching 😁
my first reaction to thirteen was hilarious
Love this Dan keep smashing your videos bro 💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯👍💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙

@@sombrerosuk haha 😂
I’m going to Alton towers today
Another very original idea from Dan !
Thanks so much!! 😂
Great List Dan! Alton Towers has some great roller coasters!
Thank you! It really does! 🔥
I was so scared going through the drop in the oblivion lol my first time I love it know
Oblivion is the king of speed, and Rita is the queen of speed 😂
I went today and thirteen is probably my favorite coaster
bro at first on number 1 i was like WHAT ITS THE SMILER!?
I think wicker man is definitely too rough but that's the best part, especially if you sit near the back, the pull of the cart makes you feel like you're going amazingly fast
Wow i love alton towers thankyou
I love the smiler ❤️
Amazing high quality produtcion
I’m going to Alton towers soon. I’m really excited for the rides there
Your videos are so funney
Great video. I'm actually going for three days on my b-day so definitely going on all!!!
Thank you! Have an amazing time when you visit and happy birthday for then! 🥳
@@DigitalDan definitely will
Can't wait to go here on saturday
When I last went I did thirteen twice and got front row on both so it was mad fun
10: HEX
9: gangster granny
8: octanarts
7:runaway mine train
8: 13
6: wicker man
5: Rita
4:oblivion
3:spinal wizzed

⚠️MY ⚠️ OPINION ⚠️
I love all the rides you mentioned in this list Dan. I'm torn between the Smiler and Wicker Man as my favourite coaster. I'll be going on the 31st May and I may go before on 29th aswell. When are you next going?
Thanks so much! They're both incredible rides - hope you have a great time when you visit! Sadly I have no idea when I'm next going, would love to go some time soon though! 🔥
100% agree with your list
For me top 6:
1-smiler
2-nemesis
3-oblivion
4-wickerman
5-rita
6-galactica
Great vid Dan!! Personally I would put Nemesis above The Smiler cause the final couple of inversions hurt my shoulders (6ft 4 lad) but they're both still great rides!!!
2 b fair I think smiler is the best in the uk
Thank you! And fair enough! 🔥
@@blank3078 extremely small
When I first when on smiler after I got of I could bearly walk my legs where shaking so much but I straight when on oblivion 😊
Loving the comedy still :D pretty alright list lol
Thank you! 🙏🏻
Rode wicker man multiple times during festival of thrills, not rough at all. Great ride
That is COOL!
For once someone that actually puts Smiler at number 1. It's an amazing ride and crazy how compact it is. I swear everyone else goes 3. Smiler 2. Wickerman 1. Nemesis. FOR ONCE AN ACTUAL FRICKING REALISTIC RANKING
What problem do you have with nemesis bro
Me, I'm everyone else 😂 smiler was top when I first rode it but I got over the hype and nemmy is my baby and trumps smiler because of the intensity, plus I live for wickerman's theming, music, station and atmosphere and I just find it so fun especially on the back row, obviously everyone's entitled to their own opinions though :)
@@dodga3449 I'm not Calidex, but Smiler feels like more of a complete and a standout ride over Nemesis.
Your defo the most reliable theme park yt
Thanks so much! 😊🙏🏻
I went to alton towers yesterday and the line was so long it took two hours to get throught and i was with my mate..while we were in the line she was getting angry at me because i was singing the smiler theme and it was driving her insane😂she threatand to tickle me if i didnt stop but i just carried on singing because why not...when we was on the ride she was lached to her seat and wouldnt let go of the handles meanwile theres me with my hands in the screaming woo hoo having the time of my life
Smiler is definitely my number1 fave ride so far at alton towers it just has this feeling to it that you cant let go of....i guess thats why the video says"you belong to the smiler"
Hopefully I’m going Alton towers sometime this year or next! Xx
awesome!
i went on thighteen and i loved it
Great content. So funny😂😂😂 (first!)
Thanks so much! 😊
Top 10:
1:Nemesis
2:Wicker Man
3:Galactica
4:Oblivion
5:Enterprise (when it isn't completely broken like it is now)
6:Spinball Whizer
7:Runaway mine train
8:Spinjam
9:Funk n fly
10:Duel
I haven't been on the other coasters yet, but I will eventually...
Man Ur missing out on smiler 13 and Rita was the ques too big when u went
@@lucasthom3249 Smiler is pretty self explanatory, as half the guests visiting will rush to it 30 mins before its even open. The last day I went, Rita had a 70 mins queue and 13 was closed. next time I am definitely going on them thgh. Can't wait!
Great list! Hope you get on the other coasters soon! 🔥
My favourite rn is nemesis
I hate nemesis made my head hurt
"If it's not smiler and nemesis this guy doesn't know anything." - Me, shortly before clicking.
when I was waiting to go on oblivion, I was absolutely terrified and before it has the massive drop. Bu t, the best bit was when it does a slight stop at the edge of the drop and it a sick👊. Highly recommend on going on it, I wish I went on the smiler tho.
All rides are brilliant been on
Went on smiler the first time a few days ago it was mind blowing
I went a couple of weeks ago and Hex was closed! I was gutted! First time I’ve been back since smiler was built so going on that was epic!
Hex is closed for months
It’s the legend the one and only the British roller coaster man😂😂😂😂
As soon as u said umber three could be seen from oblivion and it is, and advert came along saying hay fever relief
Mate I totally agree that smiler is the best and I am going to Alton towers next weekend!
The Chained Oak that Hex Talks about is literally metres away from the entrance of the park. Its close to a B&B and down a wooded pathway. You can still see the rusted chains on the branches
5. Thirteen
4. Smiler
3. Hex (yes im serious)
2. Wickerman
1. Nemesis
I’ve never road hex before I might this year:D
I loved the book gangsta granny
The smiler is my favourite at towers too
Yeah the smiler is my favourite I went on it lots of times when my parents took me to Alton towers for 2 nights
Once I was waiting in the line for smiler and I saw a pair of car keys on the netted area…
The poor man/women that wouldn’t be able to get home that night 😂
Hey Dan Flamingo Land have tested there 10 inversion rollercoaster for the first time!
I can’t wait to go
Have an amazing time when you visit! 🔥
I like the way dan always plays the same joke about pretending his number one is a kids ride but it still cracks me up every time🤣 Great vid
never been onthe slimer because was to short but next time in go i want to go on it its on like one of my top 10 rollercoasters to go on
Speaking about pidgeons (Number 5), I actually have a pidgeon egg at the time of typing this. Also, I agree with DigitalDan on the No.1 spot.
Great vid ❤ I think my top 10 will be 1 Nemesis 2 Smiler 3 Wicker Man 4 Oblivion 5 Galactica 6 Thirteen 7 Rita 8 Spinball Whizzer 9 Spinjam 10 Twistatron!
I meant 1 octanauts rollercoaster adventure jokes
on wicker man i kept shouting " I DONT WANT TO DIE" "GOD PLEASE SAVE ME"
I love wicker man it’s great
This guy should have at least 100k subs. I mean 20 mil
Haha that means so much to me thank you! 🙏🏻
My mate.. Zafara..who looks like my mate Anne..came with us to Alton Towers 1990 age 10..with my family unit of 4, younger brothwr included..and we had a lovely day out..and took a family extended picture..with Annes Dad in Naval uniform..❤..yeah..we ate loads of burgers and chips.. and yeah..the train journey home..and went home with the extended family..and Zafara's Nan gave a little Walkman gift❤❤❤..yeah..everything was great.. and helped with work..😇😁🇬🇧..year 1990..
5:14 i was fully expecting you to say enterprise
Get this trending
This man is sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo underrated
Thanks so much haha! 😊🙏🏻
My favourite ride is speed jam no its horrible SMILERRR. he's soooo funny
Literally visited there for the first time yesterday (its been a long time coming), and I have to say I agree with this ranking exactly (excluding Gangsta Granny, Hex and Whizzer since we didn't have time to get to them :(.) I was BRICKING it in the Smiler queue, but lord was it worth the buildup.
I also felt on top of the world after Nemesis. It was my first SLC, yet my parents (who had ridden before) were the ones feeling sick. XD
Its classed as an invert an SLC is oddessy infusion and kumali
My top 4 (worst to best) :
4. Oblivion
3. Wickerman
2. Smiler
1. Nemesis
(the final 3 are basically interchangeable as my order of them changes depending on the one i rode last XD)
I went to Alton towers the other day I went on wickaman and it was my first time and I sat by the edge that turns the most
My favourite Is nemesis because its smooth intense and is a Wardley Classic
Taking my friends tomorrow for their first time
I’ve had to be evacuated from Gangsta Granny the ride 😂
Legit went to Alton towers on Friday, my first time going on a rollercoaster ngl top 3 are nemesis, smiler and galactica
