Oblivion Review, Alton Towers B&M Dive Coaster | Best Drop of Any Dive Coaster!
Oblivion at Alton Towers opened in 1998 as the world's first Bolliger & Mabillard (B&M) dive machine. This innovative coaster model featured a near vertical plunge. And it built suspense via a holding brake at the top. Many people consider this ride a one trick pony, but what a trick it is! This ride has one of the best drops of any coaster.
