I love how there is CBeebies land that is all cute and happy and then you have a literal Satan rollercoaster halfway across the park
Yeah it’s like Satan joined Alton towers and said “Screw it,Satan coaster near CBeebies land”.
More like the Blair witch tbh
Especially the smiler
@@iplayfortnite5913 i know right
grrr take my like
The world may be ending but that doesn’t stop THE RITUAL
Feed the flames
Ominous
Samasuar2006 And that sacrifice is YOU
Alicia Crompton *exstreamily loud flame sounds
Caketin
“Extremely”
You enter the tunnel, what do you hear?
- "Oh God! Oh Jesus Christ!"
- "Oh not the bees... the bees!"
That's the stupid remake...
*smoke in the tunnel* ABBBLBBLLBBB MY EYES MY EYES

AAAAAHHHHHHH!
WaterCrane I do not get u
Nope people swear
i love how when you’re queueing up you feel happy/ excited to go on, but when u sit in the roller coaster fear fills you 😭
Other way around for me - shitting myself in the queue but loving the feeling once I'm sat down. That's what forced me to walk out the nemesis queue, and I still regret it.
In scared of the pre-show
#smilervibes
@@jacvic0790 that’s the same for me. Your expectations feel a lot scarier than the actual thing, or you’re just more likely to be excited because you’ve finally got what you waited for,
It’s the opposite for me. Genuinely crying having panic attack in the queue, almost hugging a stranger during the pre-show and then absolutely loving the ride.
We can’t forget this ride is literally about human sacrifices
Kind of what I thought. A ride about burning people to death in a giant statue.
Yeah. That really puts me off it, which is a shame because the coaster track looks cool.
The film is such a great one tho. If you can stand uncomfortableness it’s worth the watch
@@aliminiaentli why does that put you off? LMAO. Some people are so sensitive. It's a ride based on a movie. Not an actual human sacrifice 😂🤣😂
+AD This same park also have the “Smiler” which is a much more explicitedly theme ride about some evil organization and mind control. I don’t think vague human sacrifice is too big of a deal. I know about the Aztecs. I’ve came up with a lot more fuck up things in my head
Alton be like: Let's theme our family coasters to dying brutal deaths!
2021: Alton towers rethemes Octonauts Rollercoaster Adventure to being hung, drawn and quartered
In the latest episodes of Octonauts they find a bone pit at the bottom of the ocean literally just bones and bones
I should have been on this last weekend, makes me sad, but safety is number 1 priority
Tom Bacon yep
Yup
Crazy Russian Hacker
I agree with you on safety being the No.1 priority, because for them to open the park anyway despite the outbreak would just be a complete and reckless disregard to our public health and wellbeing, not to mention how much more the virus would have spread... it just doesn’t bear thinking about.
Josh Bacon They opened the park while there is a virus? No wonder so many people died already people aren’t taking the virus seriously a lot of people got arrested because they left their houses
I love Alton towers it’s my favourite place in the whole world !
Amen
In my opinion Thorpe is better but I love alton towers 😊
Huxy wrong
Alton towers fan really you like alton towers? you don’t seem like the type of person to like it
@@danny4063Bruh look who he's tagging
Went on this one yesterday and it was a pleasure to ride this one. The speed on this thing is insane, the G force is incredibly powerful fast. One of my favourites at Alton Towers. I hope this one stays at the park for many year's. Its good fun.
Now if only if this ride had some bees and Nicolas Cage's over the top voice lines
: 3
That's the stupid remake..
What bees
There are wasps all throughout the queueline and in the bins, they love the wood and heat. Does that suffice?
@@alisoncotuk1335 m.czcams.com/video/EVCrmXW6-Pk/video.html
These Bees
Despite events that have happened at this park, rides breaking down, long queues thousands of people look forward to coming here every year, it is one of my favourite places on this planet and I hope this ‘thing’ passes over soon, it is for everyone’s safety that it has closed but I am sure we will be seeing that purple corkscrew again
It would be nice if they made a replica of the corkscrew for the 50th anniversary. an actual rise. Bring back some classics towers.
And it's also impressive how the smiler still stands after the accident
@@irlbratzdoll_4994x the accident was human error, there was nothing wrong with the ride itself and ontop of that they invested 18m pounds into it, i don't see why they would shut it
@@irlbratzdoll_4994x Smiler is fantastic, the crash was nothing to do with the ride itself. Should we ban cars too? No of course not. Alton Towers is my happy place.
@@tracygreenhough4594 actually lmao cars are more problematic and a completely different situation 😂 I never said the smiler was the fault, it was actually the workers
I rode this pretty close to the opening weekend, and it already feels weirdly nostalgic... hope to get on this wonderfully themed coaster again soon!
you don’t know how fast this is until you ride it
It actually doesnt look fast off ride or even from this video, but it definitely feels it while youre riding
I couldn’t breath on it 😭
This on Halloween in the dark while it's raining is another experience entirely!
I’m missing Alton more than my education rn
Same here
Same. I'm going in October so I'm keeping myself occupied by researching and studying the rides and it's history
I genuinely did not expect it to go that fast when I first went in it I just knew it was a roller coaster but the thing was FAST
Yeah
Now this is on my roller coaster bucket list!
Do it, I did last month and I loved it so much
I fell in love instantly with this beast of a coaster and it's my favourite and can't stop thinking about it on the daily
It’s really nothing special.. quite good but not spectacular in any way tbh. Don’t get ur hopes up
I'm just reminiscing over when I got to see this be slowly built,
From the several months of the drained Flume to speculating over the theme.
For a rollercoaster that doesn't corkscrew or loop it's one awesome ride the feeling well worth any wait.
It's a woodie, what did you expect 😂
Wicker man is amazing!
I can't wait to get back on this incredible ride once the park reopens! I'm praying that the number of daily UK coronavirus cases has reduced enough for the park to open on July 4th, fingers crossed! #FeedTheFlames
Theme Park Insanity im meant to going on that day too!!
But it probably won’t happen sadly :(
I’m willing to be brave on the big rides
Definitely not
@@leedickson2701 Yeah, I know it won't be, that was an unrealistically optimistic statement, but I reckon it will open in June, or maybe at the start of the summer holidays.
A legjobb hullámvasút!!!!
A koncepció, a látvány, a szagok ,a történet! ......🫶 Köszönöm az élményt!!!! Wicker man🖤🖤🖤
Thanks for sharing this with us! Can’t wait for roller coasters again!
This is da best ride ever the soundtrack is the best of all!
I heard this music whilst queuing up it was amazing I loved the wicker man
Great kids/family coaster, love the theming!
1:03 - 1:09 is probably the most intense part in my opinion. That quick whip downwards followed by an airtime hill is crazy.
That was so unnecessarily intense😭
The ritual must go on
I love this ride
same but i am not gp
enthusaiast
It goes way after than it looks in the queue
Can’t wait to get my hands on some Wicker Man merch when the park opens again 🧡 #AltonTowersTogether
Natalia Edges you can online still!
I love this ride its my favourite that alton towers have ever made! 😀 keep it up alton tower!
Art Masterpiece !!!
Bloody fast! Amazing !
I just wish it went round twice ! Once is NEVER enough 😂 🔥
Great video! Can’t wait to get back on the ride!
Wish I was 30 yrs or so, younger. Back in the 80's I used to visit the resort very regularly and enjoyed the many attractions that were there then. I can remember the Black Hole roller-coaster and the famous Corkscrew. Looking at these rides now; Amazing as they may seam, i am not sure my heart could take it lol.
Best ride ever can't not wait to go back on it
I love this ride so much,!!!!!!!!
Would love some behind the scenes on how the rides are run such as videos of each ride changing and adding carriages.
Awww I love this ride went on it on the primary school trip from northern ireland
1:19 That whole “skull-thing-structure” is so cool :)
It's the wikerman 😂
They call it Big Bob
I've been on the wicker man. The show at the beginning was pretty scary
Can't wait to get back on the wicker man 😍🔥🎢
Wickerman shoots out straight away now in 2023
I went to Alton towers today and now watching it it made me feel I was on it again
I love this ride😍❤💋👊👍
This video is so slowed down, I went on the wicker man yesterday, and I literally almost flew out of the seat, even my dad did, every drop was freaking terrifying😅
Same
I love that theme parks are uploading on ride videos during this time
The ride looks sooo sick
Absolutely insane woody! - had the pleasure to ride it last year - the video does not do it justice 😮
Rode this today for the first time. Pretty fun ride, better than what the video suggests.
This roller coaster is wicked
Amazing ride love it front row is best
Oh boy. How I'm looking forward to Scarefest.
It would be nice to get some kind of Smiler 2.0 though. Love that ride!
The Chad Alton Towers making Wickerman: wow this family coaster is awesome! let’s theme it around satan
Cannot wait to be back at The Towers :) Scarefest 2018 was fantastic!
Went on this last week to get over my fear of rides and it was amazing can’t wait to go back on it
I'm gonna ride it to get over my fear of rollercoasters too.
@@rec8127 trust me I was terrified but it was defo the best decision getting on it it’s a fab ride you’ll love it. Attack your fears 🙌🏻
I did on Sunday! First ever roller-coaster I went on it not once but 3 times!! Absolutely amazing coaster
@@miariley136 It sounds awesome!!
@@rec8127 have you not ridden it yet? Definitely try it as your first coaster, I was crapping myself but after I'd been on it the first time I ended up going on Rita and oblivion 😂😂
Went on this yesterday, loved it
Wicker man's such a good ride. THE TIME HAS COME FOR THE WICKERMAN TO RISE.!! TOGETHER WE SHALL FEED THE FLAMES!!
Joint first favourite ride along with Nemesis 😍
best coaster at towers 👍👍
This is the best ride at Alton towers I live it so much
It’s not the best ride there atleast put in your opinion because nemesis and smiler are kinda better
YESS JUST WENT ON THIS TODAY IT WAS AWESOME
Best rollercoaster I’ve ever been on and I’ve been on a lot
Best ride in the park my all time favourite
I’m from London and so I only get to go up to Alton Towers once a year for a few days. I was supposed to go up yesterday and go into the park today.
Bloody good!
Can’t we just appreciate that this ride has no “loops”
*cuz I hate loops on rollercoasters...*
Inversions
@@lauracoles5595 can't wait for RMC wickerman
you’d love the smiler
@@meowmyr they actually would, the smiler has no loops. it only has 14 inversions.
Hence why I like it
I went in August of this year... And let me tell you, its sooo much better in person. I kinda wish it lasted longer though. The 90 minute queue was still worth it.
I was at the front of this and the Smiler on my first time at Alton Towers. And there was a Thunderstorm, Lightning and massive Hail.... 😬
when i went there last november it was packed
i was scared of roller coasters
but this is harmless-
opportunity squandered
I was honestly expecting just before it was gonna go down, a rickroll would play.
In the design and concept room: "okay, we need to think of a movie tie-in with a roller coaster" *snaps fingers* "I got it! A rollercoaster based on the horror film 'The Wicker Man'! Genius!"
seejoeruncft it’s actually based on a folktale! ☺️
Random worker:Even better,LETS MAKE IT A FAMILY COASTER!
Alton towers:Great idea,your being promoted!
I LOVE WICK A MAN
Great POV 😎
This is my fav ride at Alton Towers
I went on the O2 priority day which was the LAST day it was open and I’m so happy we did :)
This film helped create the idea for Midsommar, really cool they made it into a ride
That film got roundly trashed by Critical Drinker look it up it's hilarious
It’s just that I love upside down roller coasters
alton tower can have a coaster about carebears on one side and a coaster about gouging out someone's eyes on the other
Video doesn't do it justice with the speed you're hurtling down and around corners at! Love it.
THIS BACKGROUND MUSIC, I NEED IT
Other theme parks: Dinosaurs and peppa pig.
Alton towers: Human sacrifices.
Bast ride there my kid loves it
I love this ride wen I went on it and I am the biggies Alton towers fan I go every year
My favourite ride in the park has to be smiler😊
I love how all these Theme Parks are putting their own content out
I like how the start has the Alton towers “theme” in a desserty kind of way
Wish I was there
To anyone who’s going on it the first time I went on the first time today and omg! It was amazing! You get butterfly’s when your in the queue and waiting but when it starts I legit felt like I was in a pov! Since I’ve been watching them! It does feel faster then it looks tho! But it’s amazing
Not when you’re queuing up for over an hour
Wicker man is looking cool
I’m in the car going now! And I’m gonna go on this ride! And it’s gonna be my first time :)
I want to go here so bad just to ride this masterpiece
I've been on this it's so fast and amazing
One of, if not, the best theme-park out there
Throwing myself into a burning effigy is sounding more and more appealing this year.
I’ll be riding this again this weekend I’m ready
Okay wicker man the ride! now let’s go Midsommar the ride I’ll wait 🤣
I went on this ride, at night, during scarefest.
It is a TRIP.
still the best ride in my opinion
