her rides оп Nemesis, Europe's first inverted rо]lеr
coaster in the theme раrk called Alton Тоwеrs. 'I
shake when I am in the queue, but I never sсrеаm,'
she says.
I decided to try one of these rides fоr myself, but
first I spoke to John Wardley, previously а designer
of special effects for James Bond films. Не is known
as the 'King of Coasters' and was asked to introduce
the public to the thrill of film special effects in а ride
at Chessington theme park back in 1976. rýГ]
These included both Nemesis апd оьliviоп which is
the first vertica] drop rоIIеr coaster, One оf his most
frightening rides is Тhirtееп, which appeared in 2010
and cost f 15 million to create and build. I asked John
how he designed his rides. 'I always start Ьу thinНng
about а wide rапgе of emotions" he explains. Thirteeп
is а ride that'combines the цItimate elements of
physical and psychological fear. With апу ride there's
thrill and there's excitement, but with Тhirtееп we
wanted to add magic, mуstеrу, shock!'
Thirteeп isn't the world's tallest ride or the longest,
