Hi Dan. I’ve literally just got back from Alton Towers and my first rides on Nemesis Re30rn. I wanted to wait until today as it’s almost 30 years to the day from when I rode the original Nemesis when I was 14. I was blown away then and I’m blown away again. It’s still my favourite coaster, and I’ve been on a lot. Alton Towers have smashed it again. It’s absolutely perfect. That new eye effect is jaw dropping. Kinda felt sorry for Nemesis. Lol. The only thing I miss is the roar. Otherwise 🦀 is perfect. 10/10.
I love with that one piece of track, half of the community was panicking that there may be complications, and the other half was excited to see what they'd do with it, and it ended up being placed between a couple of rocks. Don't get me wrong, it looks nice, as in its not out of place, but people were expecting a massive set piece type of thing.
Hi Dan, thank you for sharing your thoughts, hopefully they'll sort out those issues soon, it certainly looks like a very decent ride experience throughout. Cheers Peter :)
before nemesis was retracked and reborn, wickerman was my number one at towers, but now nemesis is my number 1, i find it incredibly smooth and the whole area of the ride is amazing, in my opinion they have done an amazing job
I can't wait to get back on it since the retrack. My favourite seat before was back row, far left... I found it more intense, particularly on the downward helix, after the first corkscrew. But they often left the back row free for fastpass, I hope they're not still doing that... fastpass can go anywhere, they don't have to hog the back row! 😢
I only recently got back to Alton Towers for my second visit, nearly 30 years after my first. I was too small to ride anything then, and I was devastated I couldn't ride Nemesis. Riding Reborn was the fulfilment of a minor dream, and it was awesome. I might even have shed a manly tear afterwards. I love how intimidating it looks in its pit: having already rode it and gone and done the other coasters, I came back to ride it in the evening and actually found myself a little scared 😂
When I went on it ( absolutely amazing!) I thought the tracks coming out the ground were like the tentacles of the monster coming out the ground and also love the content Dan! ❤
Great review and I agree with it so much! 😃 Recently discovered your channel and love your videos. I credit Nemesis as the coaster that made me an enthusiast! Whilst I do miss old Nemmie for the nostalgia value and how great it looked (with the red river) in the 90’s/00’s, they truly gave it the love/glow-up it deserved. I got two rides last week. Row 2 (silky smooth) and 6 (that rattle, though 🥴). If they fix the rattle and improve some of the dead space with foliage/theming it would be perfect. I’d love to have the waterfalls back but I don’t think it’ll happen.
I remember going on the original in 2007 and the water in the trenches being red shame they didn’t bring that back was such a simple yet freaky element to see as a kid so happy they kept her tho and didn’t just replace such an iconic coaster long live Nemesis look forward to riding her again 💯🙌🏼
The blood red lakes with the sinister music, screaming and load roar made a very frightening experience as a 13 year old in '94. Anything any theme park have tried to make as scary since hasn't touched that level of terror.
Honestly to me, the queue and the wing are amazing, the ride feels more intense and there is FAR less head banging than before, however, the rattle is heavy, for a new ride to have more rattle than a woody is very bizarre and leaves me worried
I live a few hundred years down the road from towers. My mate and I went on the first public ride round on the original nemesis on opening morning. I think I was probably about 12 or 13. Shat my pants. Great memories.
I went on the Sunday. Rode it 8 times and didn’t feel the issues that people have spoken about. I loved every ride, particularly on the front. It’s a real shame that you can’t queue for the front. The front is my favourite row. Apparently the rattle has now disappeared?
I rode it in the Easter holidays. It had a mild rattle when I sat on the outside but on my second ride, I sat in the back row on the inside, and it was great. But the queue was very long, and it was raining. I blew my nose and then didn't have anywhere to put my tissues because the queueline had barely any bins. But it's definitely better than it was before the retrack (although I'm not sure how it compares to the original when it was first built; I'm not that old). And it's better than Inferno.
me-myself the original had much more of an impact as one of the worlds most intece roller coasters wich people from all over the world flew out to go on this slight re theming will not be of as much intrest
This theming looks soo great-sadly I can't que so I can't see it in person I don't think but I'm soo exited because I'm going in the summer (hopefully) Also have they added a ride access que or do we still have to use the exit??
The tops of the Queue line fencing are very gnarly, I have a feeling we're going to see a few punctured hands, veins and eyeballs hanging from it, after seeing what the bored kids/teens get up too while waiting in a 90min queue line. We may get a river of blood after all, ha, ha, ha.
Im going on wednesday and im gonna ride nemesis as much as possible im so pumped by the re track i only rode it once before it closed so i want the feel again!!!!!!!!!!!
Tbh, I never noticed the themeing as when I went last Monday (25th March 24) it was walk on after 11am (I done x sector and dark forest first) Ended up going on it 5 times and got front row 4/5 of them and back row the other, properly lucked out, the station Is unreal and the staff dressed as Phalanx members is sick, the later you go on it the better, we went on one of the final rides of the day and it was so so quick, buzzing to go back soon!
Does anyone else remember ever watching a movie similar to the nemesis lore? About scientists that drill under ground and find a subterranean creature? I remember watching it with my dad as a kid.
omg you was there too when that happened? i was so mad the fact it was my birthday too and i waited hours to ride nemesis reborn and then it broke ... atleast we got free silver fastracks next day
Thanks for sharing the video with us all, good to get to see the revamped ride. 😃 Just one thing, please can you level out the sound, the volume difference in your voice is so damn annoying, almost silent one moment, blasting out my speakers the next 😳
I was on the ride at night that broke down on row 3 we got evacuated and it was weird there was like a platform so u could get off like a sit down coaster 😭😭 those panels on the railing like the grey ish panels attach on the ride and make it so u can get off 😂
I don't know if it's because I didn't go to a theme park for ages or if I just love nemesis but it felt really smooth and intense but was a bit of a rattle for some reason.
I thoroughly believe tat every ride in alton towers has a segment where you really need to clench your butt for. Just to name a few: The flip onto back segment in galactica, The start of rita, The drop on 13, The entirety of smiler and the vertical loop in nemesis.
IMO the queue seemed pretty empty (not theming btw) but I think it needs some trees and bushes, and maybe even just grass to look less artificial and empty for me :/
I reckon the original was that smooth 30 years ago. Just got more and more rattly as the years went on. So good for a reset, it remains the best coaster.
I rode the original Nemesis the year it opened and many times since, one of my favourites, i think the updated version looks good but rides worse, quite rough i thought, hopefully it improves with time, shame.
Still wish mr phalanx man could have been there… so sad 😢 there should’ve of been like a little Easter egg for him dotted somewhere in or around nemesis reborn!
Every like is every ride dan has to do on infusion
nah hero
Thing is tho he has done it over 80 times in one day already he is just invincible to it. @@solarflare457

Hi Dan! I was that guy that waved at you in the nemesis queue on Thursday, I was with my best friend! We were super hyped to see you!!
How is the coaster?
@@murraygraham2923 It is good it is faster than the old nemesis and the seats are a lot comfier
Yeah
Is your pfp Hyperia?

Same goes! It’s so good!!

Yo Dan I was the guy u met on nemesis on Sunday! hope u had fun, we ended up riding nemesis 9 times the next day!
Wow jealous of how many times you rode it 😂, great to meet you!!
Hey Dan, I’d love to see a similar review and ranking for all the Alton towers and Thorpe park rides. Please make it happen 🙏
Maybe in future! I’ll note it down as a potential idea 🔥
before nemesis was retracked and reborn, wickerman was my number one at towers, but now nemesis is my number 1, i find it incredibly smooth and the whole area of the ride is amazing, in my opinion they have done an amazing job
Emesis?
@@Boblikeme ever heard of something called a typo??
Hi Dan don’t know if you will remember me but I saw you on Sunday at Alton towers and get a selfie with you near sub terra,so happy to meet you

Are you doing the Nemesis VIP event Dan? Just wondering if I would see you there!
Thank you for sharing your review. Can I ask.. can you not queue for front seats on any rides at Alton towers now?
Great review and I agree with it so much! 😃 Recently discovered your channel and love your videos.

Pretty sure the dye was harmful to the environment that's why they never brought it back.
The blood red lakes with the sinister music, screaming and load roar made a very frightening experience as a 13 year old in '94. Anything any theme park have tried to make as scary since hasn't touched that level of terror.
@@risteardconchuir4065 Exactly Dude John Wardly was in his element when creating that iconic coaster everything about it was elite & freaky 👏🏼
@@risteardconchuir4065Being 11 and hearing “there is no way out” “this is oblivion” safe to say i did the biggest gulp in that queue💀
I'll be honest. My main complaint was the lack of any sort of food kiosks in the queue line.. 5 Hours no food in the freezing cold was horrid
did you spot the pump for the red rivers ?
Great review Dan, and couldn't agree more that the back row is "the new front row" when it comes to whips and G!
Love all these different reviews on nemesis Dan 😂❤
Thank you!!

I really hope that rattle is gone, I have my fingers crossed 🤞🏻
@@DigitalDan I’m keeping my fingers crossed too. Let us know! ☺️
I rode it on Wednesday back row and didn’t notice any rattle

Where have you been all of my life - I wouldn't set foot on this ride till I saw your "review"

Those slightly clickbaity pixelated number thumbnails have become tradition for your reviews now 😂

Dan I got to meet you at Alton in the nemesis queue on the 24th of march
Went on it today! The capacity of that ride is insane, 20-30 minute queues half the day
We love the 20th review
Saw you at opening day! Little did you know I was hired as a phalanx worker.
Great job you all did too! ❤
Thanks lol!@@amandahamilton2987
Agree with Amanda! You guys do such a great job!!

Are there 2 or 4 seats per row cos i keep seeing different
Bread loaf x2
Bacon
Onions
Lettuce
Milk
Water
Oranges
I did this so every like i get i remeber my shopping list
that join us caught me off guard🤣🤣
Good vid,like always😊
Was you at Alton Towers on Sunday because I swear I saw you in the wicker man queue line
I hope you do other Alton tower rides such as thirteen and smiler
Tbh, I never noticed the themeing as when I went last Monday (25th March 24) it was walk on after 11am (I done x sector and dark forest first)
Ended up going on it 5 times and got front row 4/5 of them and back row the other, properly lucked out, the station Is unreal and the staff dressed as Phalanx members is sick, the later you go on it the better, we went on one of the final rides of the day and it was so so quick, buzzing to go back soon!
What would you rate the original nemesis
Does anyone else remember ever watching a movie similar to the nemesis lore? About scientists that drill under ground and find a subterranean creature? I remember watching it with my dad as a kid.
I’m not gonna lie I went on this a couple minutes after you on opening day and even though I had one ride it’s my favourite coaster
omg you was there too when that happened? i was so mad the fact it was my birthday too and i waited hours to ride nemesis reborn and then it broke ... atleast we got free silver fastracks next day
We didn’t get anything 😢😂
we need more no limits 2 content 🙏
Thanks for sharing the video with us all, good to get to see the revamped ride. 😃
Just one thing, please can you level out the sound, the volume difference in your voice is so damn annoying, almost silent one moment, blasting out my speakers the next 😳
I was on the ride at night that broke down on row 3 we got evacuated and it was weird there was like a platform so u could get off like a sit down coaster 😭😭 those panels on the railing like the grey ish panels attach on the ride and make it so u can get off 😂
That day was AMAZING. I saw dan but couldn't pluk up the guts the say hello but nemmy is the best in the uk. Maybe until the 24th of may 😉😉😉
The 2 pieces of track did not fit so they added it into the queue. And the mud bit has to be there for the pump and other utilities
I've been avoiding all videos about Nemesis Reborn until today when I went on it but it is glossy smooth and the best in the UK until Hyperia opens.
I have always wanted to go to ride Nemesis
Digital Dan you should rank all the theme parks you have been to
Soon 👀
I’m going tomorrow so excited 🎉🎉🎉
Hope you had an amazing time!!
I don't know if it's because I didn't go to a theme park for ages or if I just love nemesis but it felt really smooth and intense but was a bit of a rattle for some reason.
This lad cracks me up 😂 funny guy
🙏🏻🙏🏻
I was 10 when this ride opened and got on it that year, I remember it clearly. Rwbirth is exactly the same as it was in those early years.
I thoroughly believe tat every ride in alton towers has a segment where you really need to clench your butt for. Just to name a few: The flip onto back segment in galactica, The start of rita, The drop on 13, The entirety of smiler and the vertical loop in nemesis.
IMO the queue seemed pretty empty (not theming btw) but I think it needs some trees and bushes, and maybe even just grass to look less artificial and empty for me :/
That’s true! Fingers crossed there’s more planned for the future 🤞🏻
I reckon the original was that smooth 30 years ago. Just got more and more rattly as the years went on. So good for a reset, it remains the best coaster.
All those veins look pretty tente-cool!
😂😂
Um, maybe I had a bad ride but I felt it was slower and could feel trimming after the barrel roll. Didn't feel as fierce as the original to me.
Great vid. Even though i watched it late 😢
Thank you!!
Well the Thorpe park new coaster is nearly finished
Please wait for the Top 20 UK Rides till Hyperia opens, maybe even Drayton Manors Coaster. Id love to see where they rank.
Do a new top 25 coasters overall
Nice to see someone being honest and not sucking up their arse for free tickets 🤣
Im riding it on tuesday!
I have not rode nemesis reborn but did ride the original and I would say it was more intense than rough
It looks stunning to me.
Going in June I'm excited
I’m going in July aswell nice I’m excited to go on this
i feel like it ran way quicker in the night when it rained compared to in the dry weather in the morning when i was there on the 23rd 🤷♀️
this is so sigma dan
That top 20 uk ride vid has to drop after Hyperia opens
I have too be honest I absolutely love nemesis reborn
Is this a resident evil reference?
Nemesis+laser cannon
Thought the bone coloured track was more creepy and intimidating personally, almost like a camel spider which is terrifying
I just think it needs more trees around it tbh, feels a little empty?
Also Galactica fits in even less now
Love the vids
Thank you!!
I was at alton towers on thursday
Btw the parts that you can see while in the queue are parts that didnt fit
I rode the original Nemesis the year it opened and many times since, one of my favourites, i think the updated version looks good but rides worse, quite rough i thought, hopefully it improves with time, shame.
There are 2 pieces of track that didn't fit, so they threw them in as theming
my queue was only 5 mins and it is still the best ride their lol
in my opinion it's definitely the best coaster at towers
The track pieces left out are actually pieces that didn't fit in the track
Why would people think that this N1 ride is ruth
the reson it is a bit ratly is there is a damoged wheel but it is a 10/10 amasing
Nemesis REBORN is Cool and WAY BETTER THAN THE ORIGINAL VERSION OF NEMESIS!
I was there an all I can say as a german is, that if Europapark themed only one of their coasters so poorly, they would creat a shitstorm!
Octonauts is horrifyingly terrifying
Still wish mr phalanx man could have been there… so sad 😢 there should’ve of been like a little Easter egg for him dotted somewhere in or around nemesis reborn!
Valid opinion😊
