Nemesis Reborn 30th Anniversary Ft John Wardley & John Burton - Alton Towers Resort

Alton Towers Resort celebrated the 30th anniversary of its iconic Nemesis rollercoaster by sharing footage documenting its construction three decades ago, along with asking John Wardley, the original designer, and John Burton, current designer, their thoughts on the ride which has reopened as Nemesis Reborn for generations to come.

It follows the incredible scenes at the park this weekend when Nemesis Reborn was officially unveiled.

John Wardley single handedly brought BIG theme park rides to the UK, and John - we LOVE you for it! Long live Nemesis! ❤

[etrandex]

How John hasn’t been awarded a knighthood yet is just unbelievable. This man has contributed so much to the UK theme park industry and should be recognised for it.

[CatsnCoasters]

Big thank you to the 2 John's! It's not only Neme's bday today, it's also mine! 🎉

The blood river was such an iconic piece of theming on the original, and now it’s not there, it just feels like you’re bowling through a construction site 😢

[lizsavagar]

Great to see the legendary J W, he started something really special❤

[RossTurner]

I'd kill to meet John Wardley! 🙌🏻

[TSSFLVFFY]

its very touching to see this original creator give his blessing these are the things i dont get to see enough of, i wish more theme parks did this dont change something unless the original creator says so

[iitzfizz]

I've got to say I was a little bit unsure of the colour change at first when I saw the design but seeing it all together now they definitely made the right choice, it looks amazing!

[michaellyall]

Love to ride that, ive been on the Nemesis 7 times so would love to try the new version, looks more intimidating👍💯

[BeefbossZilla]

Im gonna go on this ride in 2-3 weeks time and i just have one Should i clench my but for the vertical loop?

[PassoutProductions]

Hey that's me and my friends at 1:02 !!!

[Andy-fbdb]

The old adage if it aint broke don't fix it is so true.
Should have been kept the way it was, no red an black, reborn rubbish or removal of front queue line. Nemesis rest in peace 1994-2022

[sparkyUK]

A real shame it's lost the roaring sound it made, but it's still one of the best rides.

[MyInsanityPersonafied]

Plot twist: John Wardley is nemesis. 🤔

[lazrseagull]

I thought Nemesis was one of Werner Stengels designs.

[AlpineBefore]

Not me thinking he was the bloke out of SAW!

[chrisogrady]

"an inverted roller coaster that went upside down, no one had ever done it before" but the first batman was in 1992 and it has more inversions than nemmy. I always thought nemesis was the 4th invert B&M constructed

[attractionshubno]

I would love to meet John Wardley, a legend of the theme park industry. Without him, we wouldn’t have Nemesis

[KidneyMush]

Whatever happened to that Justin Garvanovik? The guy who was laying on the track

[xides]

Naaaa imagine getting a nemesis reborn tattoo 😂😂💀💀
