Wardley absolute legend if it weren't for him I wouldn't be a rollercoaster enthusiast
100% 💪👍👍👍
the strengths of the uk theme park industry owes a lot to John Wardley. Absolute legend ❤️
Loved this. I'm still such a sucker for a good theme on a ride. It makes me quite sad what happened to the Vampire and Bubbleworks rides at Chessington. So glad I got to go on a bunch of Wardley designed attractions when I was a teen!
Agree ☺️
This is so interesting, he really brought the nest theming to the park in a very awesome way. It was wonderful when Katanga canyon and Forbidden Valley were new. No other themed area has compared since.
John Wardley Also Worked On Special Effects For Two Awesome James Bond Movie Masterpieces Live And Let Die In 1973 And Of Course The Man With The Golden Gun In 1974 And Which Is My All Time Favourite James Bond Movies Of All Time. My Name Is Bond. James Bond. Thanks Mate. X
John wardley is the goat at designing rollercoasters and I really hope John burton will be able to be one of the bests in the uk
I’d say Alan Schilke is the goat of coasters
40:37 Mr. Wardley, the fruity smells conjured in that damp, exciting air of Professor Burp's Bubbleworks will live in people's memories for the rest of their lives
Always ❤️
I loved that ride so much, RIP bubbleworks
Hello There, thank you for uploading this Documentary, it's much appreciated. Cheers Peter :)
35:23 "oh shut up!" 😂😂😂
"a family of 4 will spend £40 to £50 on a day at chessington - that includes the fuel"
Fast forward a few decades - £50 entry per person, fuel £1.80 a litre and nearly all of John Wardleys magic gone 😩😩
And now we've lost The Haunted House... is Towers even worth visiting outside of Hex and the Secret weapons anymore?
@@louiswright8282 hopefully merlin carry on with the improvements they're doing currently - retracking nemesis, jumanji at chessington, etc - I feel like their greed outways any good work still currently
God John if only you could see Alton Towers today and how far it has come. Oh ... you CAN!!!! YESSSSS!!!!! (If you ever see this 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)
What the fuck have you just caused me to read
He really said "Sir Emilly Alton"
39:08 Professor Burp's Bubbleworks!
Miss it!
@@AttractionSource Speaking of which, I hope to see British Theme Park Archive's new documentaries on it and Toyland Tours.
35:28 "OH SHUT UP"
Does anyone know where I can watch the discovery channel show that John talks about in his book?
He Designed Hangtime at Knott's Berry Farm
goat
If he wasn't there then nemesis would be a whole lot different it might of never been nemesis actually
Half finished Tescos 😂
in my opinion it looked like a half finished lidl
