Major Accident on the Smiler Roller Coaster Alton Towers June 2nd, 2015
2,991I always hate it when something unfortunate happens in the amusement industry, and today is no exception. Two trains collided on the coaster, resulting in the injury of 16 people. In this video, I'll relate exactly what happened.
After this accident, the park has stated that they are considering closing the coaster. Should they do that? In the video in the link below, you can hear what I have to say about it:
