Nemesis Inferno is located at Thorpe Park in Surrey. The ride is themed around an erupting tropical volcano, the layout was conceived and designed by John Wardley and built by Bolliger & Mabillard (B&M), the same combination that brought us Nemesis roller coaster at Alton Towers Resort. As a result, Nemesis and Nemesis Inferno are often compared.
Nemesis Inferno at Thorpe Park
Nemesis Inferno was installed just one year after Colossus to help transform Thorpe Park into a real thrill park. In 2004, Thorpe Park approached Guinness World Records to set the record for the “Most Naked People on a Rollercoaster”. In May 2004, 81 students took part in the record, which was set at 28, the number of seats on a single Nemesis Inferno train. It was an unusual way of celebrating Thorpe Park’s 25th Birthday.
