Frequently Asked Questions |
|
Why have you made this web site? |
At the time when this site was first launched
(May 2000), there were just a handful of unofficial web sites
about Alton Towers, some of them good, some of them not so good.
We decided that we would try and create the ultimate web guide
to the park, and try and include everything we could find out
about the park. |
|
Do you work for Alton Towers? |
No, we don't. Everyone who is involved in creating
this site have full-time jobs not related to Alton Towers, or
theme parks. We are just ordinary Alton Towers visitors. |
|
How do you get all your information? |
We have a number of people who help us out
occasionally. We know people who work at the park, who we sometimes
contact, but the vast majority of the information comes from
other park visitors, and what we know already. |
|
Can you help me with my site? |
If you need help with your web site, then you
already know how much hard work goes into it. We are constantly
working on new features for this web site, which doesn't give
us any time to play a part in other sites. If you need help
with pictures for your site, then we may be able to help you.

this page. |
|
How often do you go to Alton Towers? |
We usually visit the park 2 -3 times
a month, to get new photographs, and sometimes new video clips. |
|
I like the videos you have got,
but why aren't there any on-ride videos, so I can see what they
are like for someone riding them? |
On-ride videos are extremely difficult
and time consuming to make. Permission is required from the
park management, and must be set up using professional video
equipment, and properly secured to the ride. This is not possible
with the equipment we use, and we do not have the funds to have
professional video made. Please remember it is extremely dangerous
to you and people around the ride if you use your camera/video
equipment or mobile phones on any rides. |
