robbalvey Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 Hey everyone! Time for another "Official" TPR Video! This time - ALTON TOWERS: http://www.themeparkreview.com/videos/altontowers_uk2006.htm This was shot during the UK Tour 2006 and includes lots of great footage of Nemesis, Oblivion, Rita, Air, and more! And of course there is tons of TPR antics including John's "Camera of Doom" breaking Rita, a bit too much spinning in the play area, and still know one knows exactly what was on Barry's ass!!! Anyway, download the video, enjoy it, and don't forget, if you like the video segment, order the DVD! http://www.themeparkreview.com/tprorder.htm Thanks again to everyone for their support! --Robb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DATman Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 The song was amazing, as well as the video. It's just a lot of fun to watch, and it really does an awesome job at portraying the parks for what they are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chrissie Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 Its the Fast Food Song by the Fast Food Rockers. It was out over here a few years ago. Awesome video!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BarryH Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 Believe me, you don't want to know what was on my ass. I think it moved and ate small children. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frozenflames Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 Great video! Haha, that song (or at least the chorus of it) is used as a warm-up for the theatre kids at my school before our shows (although we also mention Star Wars and random animals). Plus that spinny thing looks really fun, although nauseating. Randi "woo-hoo for fast food-related stuff" Bass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wes Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 My favorite part is when that dude totally gets a face-full of water on the Top Spin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fallen Heretic Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 I was hoping never to hear that damn song again. lol. When I heard the UK eurovision entry (by scooch) it reminded me of fast food rockers. Evil, bad, wrong music. Yet somehow, oddly appropriate. lol. Love the Nemesis footage. Especialy when you can see the water ripple up as the train roars over it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PKI Jizzman Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 That song is permanentally stuck in my head. LOL! that topspin is hilarious! Looks like you almost drown!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nrthwnd Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 ^ That topspin, RIPSAW, was honestly, The Most Entertaining Ride I have ever seen. From an 'audience' perspective. It definitely drew the crowds, just to watch a circuit happen, if only for how DRENCHED some of the riders were going to (eventually) get, LOL. The ride op clearly enjoyed the whole setup - and (mostly) everybody who went on it knew exactly what 'could' happen to them, heh heh. And now you know what those things can really do, when the 'water works' are all in order, hmmm? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coaster05 Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 That is me on the Ripsaw and it was absolutely hilarious. My wife and Elissa talked to the ride op and actually offered a bribe to really turn the water up. However, he was a fine upstanding employee and ran the cycle for free. It was one of the funnest rides I have EVER had in my life on any ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbalvey Posted March 23, 2007 Author Share Posted March 23, 2007 ^ And it was pretty damn funny for us watching from the slidelines! I did think it was very clever how the operators were able to use the water bouncing off the ride to get the onlookers VERY wet too! I've never seen that done on any other water top spin! --Robb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PKI Jizzman Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 ^I saw the water hit the camera! Wow, what a wet ride. That is hilarious! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coastrfreak2000 Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 Is Ripsaw wetter than Canada's Wonderland's deadly topspin? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
