The SMILER, Alton Towers, Off-Ride

[@roxycauldwell544]

I don't know who designed this ride but it's the coolest looking ride I've EVER seen. The shape of the tracks, the cars passing each other- it must've been really hard to make the ride look so awesome!

[@SmilingAdvocate]

its designed by gerstlauer

[@somethingsinister8493]

@@SmilingAdvocate Gerstlauer are the manufacturer. The layout was designed by John Wardley, same guy who designed Nemesis Oblivion and Air.

2:45 "I'm shite-ing myself" 😂 Great video as always, always like your footage. Definitely not my favourite coaster, but Gerstlauer definitely understood the brief

[@Grapebery]

I love how the ride gives an eerie feeling to me especially when I haft no idea what the ride was

4:14 One of the first time stat Alton towers brought back “Marmalisation”

[@harry24027]

I think they will eventually bring most of it back

[@horseplop9]

Glad its. BACK

[@thomaseriksson3182]

Nice video👍 but i think-after the accident..they should changes trains to the newer "lap bar" trains aka Kärnan Hansa-Park.

[@aswisshuman637]

the restraints would change anything on the situation.

[@avessstella]

the restraints weren’t the problem

[@MalrusOSC]

Something they should bring back is the patterns on the back of the seats, I know they swapped them out so they could have the safety card but they could also add back the cool patterns :(

the smiler may not be very fast, but it has the most inversions in a rollercoaster with 14 o_O

[@Laura-lc5ng]

shame that the ride's trackwork isnt the best + the restraints arent the best but its a great layout and my Number 3 love how it runs decently fast even if only running for an hour or two
