Alton Towers Resort to launch new world first rollercoaster in May 2013

Join us at the Alton Towers Resort in 2013 as the UK’s number 1 theme park launches its biggest ever rollercoaster – The Smiler. The first of its kind in the world, The Smiler will be the biggest ever investment for a ride at the Resort. The Smiler is an all-knowing controlling force that is committed to ensuring you smile. Always.

 

Whilst the world first element of The Smiler is still under wraps, the coaster is set to provide an experience like no other ride. The Smiler will marmalise your body and mind, combining intense physical effects from plunging drops and extreme turns with twisted psychological effects. The Smiler features five mind manipulations: The Inoculator, The Tickler, The flasher, The Giggler and The Hypnotiser to provide a comlete physical and mental assault on riders. It will turn you into a smiling advocate.

 

Featuring plunging drops of 30m, a ride time of 165 seconds and a track length 3x the length of Oblivion, The Smiler is set to be an intense addition to the Alton Towers Resort’s line up of adrenalin pumping rides.
