I say back to the future. Loved riding that one as a kid... but Simpsons makes me motion sick lmao.
10 year old me and family got free tickets to Universal Orlando by sitting through a time share pitch. The park had barely been open a week. Ironically the ONLY two rides working were Jaws and ET. We rode the original Jaws and skipped ET because the wait was like 6 hours or something craz. The og jaws ride was SICK!!!
I went on the Jaws ride in Orlando. The very first time on it, the boathouse area had something go wrong and the driver seemed to be panicking a little bit. I thought it was part of the act but then we could smell something like burned electronics. After a few minutes, the doors behind us opened and there's the next boat, stuck waiting there too, lol. After a few more minutes, they managed to get the front doors open to get us through. Maybe it's just cursed, haha.
Ultimate nightmare falling in that water.... 😭

I rode the original version when the shark grabbed the boat. It actually worked for a weekend. Of course I didn’t have my video camera with me which was a VHS monster at the time.
Rides like jaws were the true magic of universal. As much as I enjoy universal, much of that magic is lost.
Or is it? Rumors are starting to come up that Universal is planning on making a “Creature from the Black Lagoon” boat ride as part of the expansion to Dark Universe. So this COULD potentially be the spiritual successor to Jaws.
@@jonathanwallis3300 Jaws and kongfrontation had movie sets, practical effects, and live actors on the ride. It was an experience that immersed you into the scene of a movie. That was the magic of universal. The current attractions don't really have that, and I doubt future ones will.
lore heads rise up…… or should i say, swim up
I love jaws! sadly I never got to ride it
Universal studios japan has jaws
@@metallicnole4514 japan gets the leftovers
For those English language learners. The shark rises (intransitive) out of the water. or Shark raises its head (transitive) out of water.
I remember there were 3 versions of the ride. Version 2 and 3 were basically the same. The only difference was basically "break runs" IE.. the boat went to spots and stopped and waited for the skipper or ride ops to let it into the next area.. mainly because there was an issue with birds. FL birds would land on the water and if they were in the wrong area could be hurt by water cannons. so they installed the "bird button" to let the boat know when it was safe because (legend has it) before the bird button a poor bird got killed and launched into lap of like a little girl? and there was a legal action on that if i remember right? (this is all like 3 or 4th hand stories so no idea if it's true)
YEEEEEEEESSSSS. I haven’t been watching your videos lately since I have been busy. Sorry. I will watch this one though since I love jaws and it’s from theme park lore, yep, imma definitely watch this one.
