I remember going with school to alton towers when the smiler first opened. The queues were too long for me to bother but it had such a nasty reputation. People kept talking about people dying on the ride (could be rumours, never found out) but I had this image in my head of it being really scary either way. I don't know if going on the pepsi max (and nearly having a panic attack on the way up) tempered any fear I had around rollercoasters but this just looks fun now that I see it. I love fast and twisty coasters.

[@Kanaventi]

! No one died on this ride ! While there was a major accident on this ride no one died!! There were injuries and some of the riders in the accident had to get their legs amputated, but i reccomend watching a video called "what really happened on the smiler" to get more info about the factors that played. Since then proceedures and trainings have been improved and more safety systems have been installed on every ride at the park. It's still safe to this day as all works efficiently (i say efficient bc in the modern day, the least you'll get about Smiler is it stopping and riders likely having to be removed off the ride because of something detected in the safety systems :/ )

[@Lesbianduck]

No one has died on the ride, there was an accident in 2015 but that was due to human error and is very unlikely to happen ever again

[@Ari_247]

Nobody died but in 2015 there was a collision and left 4 passengers with Major injuries. There was a glitch in a system and an empty cart got sent out then a couple minutes later a cart of 16 people were sent out. The glitch made the mechanics break on the empty cart and it failed to complete the full loop on one of the loops. As the empty cart just sat there the cart with 16 passengers came up to the loop but hit the empty cart with force and the first 4 riders in the front row suffered injuries but no deaths.

[@Kanaventi]

@@Ari_247 there was no glitch. The winds made the first car fail the loop and then the operator manually overode the safety system later on, sending a car with passengers that had stopped down

Love to get over my fear of roller coasters. I got a weak stomach and the drops just give me awful anxiety but this is one I'd like to force myself to go on as it looks hella fun and it is more spinning than massive drops.

[@kymscates2892]

I used to be the same up until two years ago I forced myself to get on a coaster again as an adult not going to lie i was TERRIFIED! I am the same, the drip feeling gives me major anxiety however I can say now I have ridden every single coaster at Alton towers and overcome my fears. I’ve learnt it’s the build up rather than the ride that is the most scary and anxiety ridden! I now look at it as hey I’m strapped in now, I can’t be that person that says wait take me off and have to stop the train! So once I’m buckled in I just think to myself to go with it whatever happens. Turns out they aren’t nearly as scary as I kept remembering them and actually I now LOVE quite a lot of the coasters I’ve been on! I did have to work my way up to it though so first visit I did wickerman was ok then went on nemesis which in hindsight was maybe a bad idea as it’s very intense for a second coaster! That one gave me a panic attack and ruined my day so I ended it there on that trip. Second trip I did wickerman first again as I already knew that one so way less anxiety when you already know what it’s going to be like! Then I went on galactice which I absolutely loved because I felt like a bird flying! Then I tried Rita and yes I was nervous but ended up loving it! Then thirteen which the first drop scared me I looked down and went OH FFFF haha but I survived and actually didn’t hate it! I couldn’t quite bring myself for smoker or oblivion that trip though. Third trip I did all the same as last time again then absolutely had a freak out watching the smiler and thought no way could I do that but I studied it for 15 mins and went you know what, just get on and do it! So I was a ball of nerves walking through the queue, sat in my seat regretting my life choices but went with it and you know what it wasn’t even THAT BAD!!! Smiler is mostly loops and twists hardly any drop feeling at all so actually I now LOVE this one! I wasn’t brave enough for oblivion that trip though. So oblivion was the big one for me as it was all about the drop and THAT is what I hate about coasters. Yesterday however, I actually got in and sat down and went with it! I find the trick is get it done first so you don’t keep panicking, keep your eyes open, get a fast pass so you don’t have to watch it go past you 500 times and make you more anxious! Either way, as a previous roller coaster scaredy cat, I have now been converted and tried them all at my local TP! It feels like such an accomplishment def start small and build yourself up you can get there if you want it!!

Love the ride, hate the 2nd lift hill. Especially when it's windy🥴😬 The track shakes from side to side sometimes

[@justarandompeep412]

It isn’t aloud to operate over high winds, because that happens and the train stalls.

[@justarandompeep412]

Tho it is rough when it is up in high winds.

Is it just me but at the beginning when ur waiting for it to say “join us” u can feel the adrenaline rush through ur body

[@charlibear2312]

That ride looks good!

[@mr03max87]

Honestly was shitting myself before I went on the smiler for the first time but it was amazing, smooth ride, made me slightly dizzy, NOT SICK but dizzy, weirdest bit is ur actually smiling the whole way around…

[@cottencandyytroadto700]

Idk why but I’m just afraid to go Alton towers after the smiler accident like I’m scared if the rides break there while I’m on it.

[@illumynarty]

Trust me, safety systems have dramatically improved since the accident. Said accident was also the ride operator's fault, as the safety systems were overridden even when it detected a train still on the track. Alton Towers has taken even more precautions now, to make sure the ride is completely safe for all its guests. If any rides do break down while you're on it, you'll just be stopped in a safe place along the course while the ride staff looks for the cause of the stop. This is nothing to fear though, as breakdowns naturally happen on all roller coasters, most of the time due to the ride's computers being extra precautious. Roller coasters are built for this stuff though, and as many safety precautions as possible are taken on every existing ride. If you're still somewhat afraid to ride because of safety, just remember that you're more likely to actually die on the car ride to the theme park than be injured on a roller coaster.

[@becx3163]

Omg how steep is this coaster. I must admit id be a bit put off by the accident but good on you for giving it a go

[@phxntom7573]

Same I feel like every dime I see or think about this ride I think of the accident

[@slotselectagamblingchannel7452]

Just get your selves on it. Its a very good ride. Been on it about 8 times now. Its one to experience as videos don't do it justice. This ride aswell as others has had tight safety measures put in place to ensure safety. Don't be put off by that accident let it add to the thrill. Bless those that got injured tho.

[@justarandompeep412]

Guess what? The crash was human error You shouldn’t be afraid of anything besides the lore and music THE SMILER IS A SAFE RIDE

[@blueflare3848]

The accident could've happened with any roller coaster. It was caused by pure human error. The ride was running perfectly fine that day.

[@rachelsewell7026]

@@justarandompeep412 well then why not be afraid of human error happening again?
