The mystery of the “creepy sheep” with evil faces painted on their sides that was allegedly creating some sort of low-level mystery among social network users, has been solved. It was an Alton Towers PR stunt.
The placement of the evil smiley face logo was designed to promote the theme park’s latest addition to its rollercoaster line, which is to be called The Smiler. Hence the evil smiley faces painted on sheep. Obvious when you think about it.
Here’s the contraption that will soon be making people smile and possibly form some other slightly more distressed facial expressions on their holidays:
Looks more like a big pair of tits from this angle. The £18m new ride will be open this spring. [Metro]

Mutilation?
Yeah, bit strong isn’t it?
1. to injure, disfigure, or make imperfect by removing or irreparably damaging parts: Vandals mutilated the painting.
2. to deprive (a person or animal) of a limb or other essential part.
I’m glad they didn’t post a picture of the mutilated sheep.
Ahh so this is SW7?
I look forward to it when I go this summer!
Opens in May for those who want to know ! This is only a small section of the ride… and to be a total geek, in the pic there is 4 inversions configured in a Batwing confirguration (the two largest loops/tits) and a cobra roll which is the 2 smaller inversions.
I bet you play a bit of Rollercoaster Tycoon!
Nah Roller coaster Tycoon is for kiddies.. NoLimits all the way baby !! I’m also a total roller coaster nut so travel all over the world finding the biggest and fastest. Haven’t found anything to scare me yet
That’s an expensive and awesome hobby!
It’s good fun and takes me to some weird ass places but does kinda cost way more money than it should
if you think that is scary, you try being in a car when my dad drives, he is 73 and such an ignorant aggressive driver.
My mum pays so little attention to the actual road nobody (and I mean nobody) in the family will get in the car with her driving; it’s why we never win the National Lottery, she uses up the whole family’s luck every time she drives!
Hahaha parents eahh
and once my lazy son learns to drive I’m sure he’ll criticise my driving
i use to have a grand picasso and struggle to manually get my wheelchair in, i used to drive quite quickly,
but i have a VW T5 Caravelle with wheelchair lift and air suspension which only does about 20mpg so i have had to change my driving accordingly
20mpg at 90mph?
Personally I’d rather not have to drive, I’d like to live on a tropical island where people carry me around on my throne
now 20mpg at 30mph arghhhhh its because its been so heavily modified, i try and drive as gently as i can
being carried on a throne sounds good to me and is environmentally friendly
I’d be a good benevolent ruler to my subjects!
until they misbehave of course
indeed….mwwwhuhuh
