- Construction walls are up in Forbidden Valley at Alton Towers for work to start on a NEW ride! Currently code named Project Ocean, in this vlog I take a look at the location for this new ride. Along with that I check out the work currently taking place on The Skyride along with an update on the rumored new Scare maze location in Gloomy Wood!

Bro teleported back to the UK😂
💀
It's like he's always in three places at once
LOL
💀
Only takes 2-3hrs on the plane UK-spain. Also, he presumably uploaded the portaventura after he came back.
They should put on a shuttle train whilst the skyride is down. Walking through the gardens is exhausting!
Glad to see the roaming characters still around 8:39
The entertainments team are great and really add so much to the area!

Best time to visit when it's quite. Can get on everything, most all walk on which I love. Can't wait to come back.
Loving the movements going on at Alton Towers now - exciting times for the park - enjoyed the vid
Had a brilliant day yesterday, lots of rides and re rides and watched them building the construction walls from the coffee lounge. 🎉 I do wish they’d take the decals off the trams, it’s awful when you can’t see out! You’d think they’d want to showcase the rides as you’re travelling in!
That’s great to hear. Would love to see them make the windows clear to see through again!
According to The Nemesis Reborn TV advert, I’m pretty sure Percy was eaten by the Nemesis Monster
Oh wow! I didn’t even know so thanks for the video about it , and I really hope ripsaw returns maybe as I never got chance to go on it because i wasn’t tall enough.
Wow the cable car looks like a ski lift I think that that makes alten towers better😄
Bro teleported back to the Uk😂
😂
I was thinking the same 😂thing
7:29, we did see you! but didn’t want to get in the way of the filming 😆
Hope you had a good day!
@@ThemeParkWorldwide awh we really did, missed seeing charlotte though
I can see myself :) so great meeting you we were sat having a coffee and you spoke to us such a great day at towers and can’t wait for the new ride 💖
It was great to see you!
He teleports to 3 countries in the time I'm still booking the same trip haha
Brilliant 😂
Thank you to Shaun and Charolette for all these updates and can’t wait for new flat ride 🎉❤
Thank you! More updates on the way as we get them!
Was there yesterday first time in 10 years. Love your content great channel
Thank you, hope you had a great time!
I think X sector and where spin ball is needs a refurb! It needs some new flat rides around them.
I think best they had was when ugg land had that swing ride and corkscrew, I loved that ride 😂
I was at Alton today! Had the best time, operations were great and the park just feels like it’s heading in the right direction! Can’t wait to see what comes in 2025!
When I visited Alton Towers a few weeks ago, there was a board between Towers Street/Mutiny Bay which gave some info about the Skyride. I thought it was well worth a read and gave a good explanation on its closure/future plans.
I also saw a set of 3 Skyride gondolas when walking back to the car park. I thought it was strange leaving them exposed to the elements in an alleyway, but maybe they'll be doing something with those???
Possibly so!
My dad did original construction on nemesis back in 1993
Great to see these updates! Hope you have a nice time at europa park!
Thank you!
3:59 it was very cool meeting you yesterday at that spot good luck 👍🏻
Great to see you
Thank you for covering this, I really enjoyed the coverage ❤ no Charlotte though?
Charlotte was at home preparing for our trip to Germany!
Great video update Shawn from Alton Towers about The Skyride and NEW ride! Currently, code-named Project Ocean, keeps the good videos coming on the channel. Shawn. 😀👍👍
Ha ha the Park characters looking for Percy - I think he will turn up eventually. Thanks for the vlog update Shawn. Great that work is going on for the Skyride. Enjoy your visit to Europa Park
Thanks for watching! Hopefully they find Percy at some point!
The park is moving very fast and it’s great to see 😊😊
You need themepark worldwide on youtube on a tshirt
Worked there two seasons 1996 1997.... Best days of my life
Was here on Monday when they began construction, and my brain couldn't compute that it was Project Ocean beginning, as we didn't expect work to start until much later this year! On a side note, rode Nemesis on the back row, left edge seat, and it was the roughest ride I've ever had on Nemesis/Nemesis Reborn - certainly not as smooth as the original. Due to the extra speed it's carrying, perhaps?
It’s very securing to see. Nemesis definitely isn’t as smooth as she used to be, possibly so!
Great Alton Towers update video Shawn
Hi Shawn hope your okay. I was at Alton towers yesterday the 23rd shame I missed you. I saw they were working on the sky ride supports by wicker man and also saw three workers by nemesis do work for the new flat ride. Rode nemesis for the first time since the og. Its a lot smoother and the best thing was got to go on the very back was not through choice but was hoping and got to do it. Well impressed. Not so impressed with the smiler it looks unloved the track looks a bit on the rough side especially in the station also the theming is showing it's age more so than oblivion it need a repaint in my opinion. I think Alton towers need to focus a little more on x sector and even dark forest. I always though dark forest was the best part of the park. Well it was when it was festival park. Hope you enjoyed your trip out in portaventura.
Thanks for sharing!
Hey it’s been amazing seeing you at Alton towers today u made my dreams come true 🙂
Great to see you!
@@ThemeParkWorldwide I was the one with the coat and orange jumper
Would you mind showing the drink offers at the freestyle machine next vlog you do at the park?
Been trying to find info online and some people show that it has powerade, whereas I think it was a previous food vlog from last year that showed it didn't have it!
Visiting in july and wondering weather to order the refillable, but we don't want to just drink fizzy drinks!
Would also love to see your meals at woodcutters if you end up not bringing a lunch one day!
Nice little update, cheers. Looking forward to a trip to Alton Towers in May 🤞
Have a great time!
Something that puzzles me ( and forgive me i only went alton once and that was in 2022. ) about ripsaw and the site is that when i went in 2022 funk n fly was still there but i couldnt understand how a huss top spin fit into that spot. When shawn goes up to the access gates for the site, i saw a hedge and a rock wall. Were those put in after ripsaw went and was it located behind them? As i re call the inflatable that was there after ripsaw had gone and the sign for ripsaw was still behind it. Can somebody please explain it to me as im just so confused
Thanks for sharing! They were put in after Ripsaw left!
You have got a follow I love your channel and you have made me conquer my fears of roller coasters Thank you!
That’s great to hear!
can’t wait to go Alton towers next week!
Hey Shawn, glad to have met you today, I spoke to you near nemesis, and we spoke about skyride, hope you had a great rest of the day there. Was a mind blowing experience to meet you 😊😁😁😁😁😁😁😁
It was great to see you!
@@ThemeParkWorldwide thanks I do apologise about getting your name wrong, 😂🤦♂️. But yeah was a honour and a privilege
I think Ripsaw Reborn would be a great name with the same colours of Nemesis maybe. Very interesting video and can't wait to see what happens with this flat ride.
You had me all excited briefly….I was expecting your first ride review of Voltron! 😂
It’ll be coming up in the next few days!
Can’t wait! Seen a few vids of it and it looks insane, but really looking forward to the TPW review of the full experience 😁
Alton Towers really need to completely revamp it's transit system. We should get narrow gauge trams running down gloomy wood, a new monorail and the skyride revamped
That would be great!
Ive seen the POV for Voltron, they've created a monster!
Can’t wait to ride it!
Can we just take time to Shawn for getting of a flight from Spain and in his one free day till he goes europa park he is at Alton to show us updates!!!!! Well done and love the volgs
Living the dream isn't he? Can't help be envious although it is alot of work they put in.
Thank you for watching! It’s great fun 🤩
Awesome video keep up the good work enjoyed as always
Thank you!
Have a great time at Europa voltron looks like its going to be a top 10
13:26 I think that it could open around October/Scaremaze time of the season as summer is too close for it to open then
I think they are getting this new flat ride in and ready for Summer 24. I think there will be an announcement after that about a Galactica retheme to help complete the area, I think it will be either Ripsaw Reborn, Ripsaw's revenge or Something related to Seek the Truth/Phalanx.
Can’t wait to go tomorrow!
What I want to know is why in the UK do we build every theme park ride outdoors? Alton Towers should build an indoor section with world class rides so it can stay open all year round.
Brilliant vlog
Cool!
Fabulous video!!
Thanks!
Ive got a feeling that the tunnel and base of the ride are concrete and then the building for the ride would be a galvanised steel shed with sheeting on. So my estimate would be a month before the concrete base is done and about 2 week to fit the shed then its down to huss to fit the ride. In total id give it 4 month's from this point. But depending on how fast they work it could even be a late june early july for a summer opening before peak season.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts!
I hope they completely refresh scarefest. Every attraction new, New stories,etc
could be starting project ocean and then pausing to make a scare zone to hint towards what its going to be and then finish over winter :)
Possibly so!
Have fun in Europa Park Shawn! I was just wondering if you are going to be doing the phantom of the opra overlay on the can can coaster. Enjoy voltron and all the other coasters!
Thank you, we will be indeed!
Omg new flat rides 😱
So exciting!
When are you doing a Drayton construction update?
We’ll be back at Drayton Manor next week!
I was at Drayton Manor a couple of weeks ago so looking forward to the update vlog from there Shawn and Charlotte x
I would be surprised if it opens this year as I doubt the manufacturer has been given the go ahead to start production of the ride. However they could get a refurbished ride, or one that has already been built as a prototype!
lil tip: if you havent already, in mutiny bay near the aquarium theres a stand that has fresh donuts oh my god theyre so good 😋
i've heard leaks of a 'ripsaw revenge' name so i commented about it on a tower's post as a joke and they replied with "🤔" so i think that's pretty much confirmation
Project Ocean - Water - Ripsaw had water jets and was a very wet ride
I loved ripsaw and the water jets
Hopefully we'll get an updated vlog on the dungeons before they close in summer......im hoping to get to do it just the once before they close it (just in case)
Pleeeeeaaase let the new ride be ready for Scarefest!!
I was at Alton towers today
Some great updates
So much happening at the moment!
Man I love your videos
Thank you!
Did you go back in time ,to see the ride,
Hi guys I love your videos -best CZcamsr I have ever seen
Thank you!
No problem I would love to meet you both soon
My prediction is that Project Ocean is a Scarefest 2024 addition. Just seems to make sense if they're starting already.
Edit: Also I can imagine them going for the name Ripsaw's Revenge as it would also be a little nod to Chessington's defunct Top Spin that was Rameses Revenge
great video shawn
Thank you!
Awesome Video 😄😄
Thanks!
I didn’t even think it had been given planning permission so Project Ocean is exciting to see going ahead already.
Can’t wait to see what happens next!
I feel like project ocean could be a screamin swing like rush because there are two mini towers next to it.
Were you there Tuesday Shawn? If so cant believe it - I was there the same day, but probably wouldn't have seen you as The Smiler stole my glasses the day before 😂Do not get too chill and wear glasses on that ride!!!!!!!
I was indeed
Would make sense to start asap if they are planning on putting in planning permission for other flat rides in other areas of the park. If they could do say 4 new flats in 3 years total in addition to standard maintenance and other project work, I’d say that would be achievable
Possibly so!
Imagine… ripsaw but with huge screens either side and below it 😉
You are so sillllllllllllyyyyyyyyyyy😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
what day did you go? i went on the 21st and got 3 nemesis rides 3 smiler 2 rita oblivion and galactica. great day
This was today!
I saw you at towers today but I didn’t want to disturb you to say hi lol
Hope you had a good day!
Is nemesis inferno similar to infusion i went on infusion last week tbh its my 3rd favourite ride but the only bad part is that it hurts ur head 😂
I don't think they will but I think it would be nice if they painted the monorail supports over Forbidden Valley to fit the new dark theming.
That would be great and fit in nicely!
Love the vids
Thanks!
Welcome back to the UK TPW. 👋
Thank you! For one day 😂
@@ThemeParkWorldwide No worries. Enjoy your next trip, and travel safe.
ripsaw revenge would be a great name and I would love to see a suspended top spin with a black and red and maybe yellow colour scheme and give it a back story to fit in with the phalanx and the nemesis story ❤
That would be great!
Looks awesome Sean. What's your thoughts on river caves and the state it's in at the minute also?
I’m hoping the ride gets some much needed TLC!
Alton Towers have gone quite about HEX wonder if that open this year
Nothing sadly yet
aw i loved hex when i went i hope they won't change it
Let's see you do the wave at drayton manor this Friday.
We won’t be as we’ll be at Europa Park for Voltron!
Would be great but they're at Europa for Voltron on Friday.
It is not called Drayton monor
@@ThemeParkWorldwide Can't wait for your vlog, saw Lift Hills and Thrills' one from the press event (surprised you weren't invited) and Voltron looks absolutely incredible! Hoping to go to Europa next year for my 30th, would be my first non-UK theme park too.
I was hoping the Wave would have been open the other week when I visited but it wasn't 😢 - Loki was down again as well and there were issues with the Haunting too - everything else was good tho ❤
Voltron - looks immense at Europa park 🔥
Can’t wait for it
Shawn went straight back to the airport after seeing this 😂
Pretty much 😂
Keep up the great work mate!👍 I have a question for you Shaun, what do you recommend to all the people who have fears of Rollercoasters?
Thank you! It’s best starting with the smaller rides and working your way up!
I think that new flatride opens for Scarefest thsts my prediction Shawn also why is there a area penned off near oblivion
Possibly so!
@@ThemeParkWorldwide is there any plans for another flatride near Oblivion
Hi Shaun will you be at Alton towers on the 9th of may? I’m with a group of subscribers of yours and would love to grab a picture if you’re there that day.
We won’t be on that day unfortunately however we hope you have a good time!
@@ThemeParkWorldwide thank you very much, would you see Thursday is a good day for short queue times
Is Hex still running & coming back?
He talks about Hex at the end of the video
No updates on Hex sadly
We need a bookworm update 😊
I don’t think anyone is going to be up set that there is more building work going on in forbidden Valley especially when it means a flat ride and fantastic to see work going on on the cable car
Can’t wait to see how this progresses!
Shame skyride won't be working this year. I was going to go, but I don't think I'll bother this year. Blackpool pleasure beach it is for me
It’s a shame to see it closed again in 2024
I think that's what I will do as well. Has nobody at Alton towers thought about a few trolley buses to transport guests.
I’m going to Alton towers on 3rd of may
Have fun!
@@ThemeParkWorldwide thanks
I love alton i miss alton WHY ARENT I AT ALTON TOWERS DANG IT
I was going to say have you 2 got a blooming teleporter of something ?!?!
We like to keep busy! Germany tomorrow!
Just watched volition piv 😊
Can’t wait to ride it!
