JAWS RIDE 1990 Skipper Training Video

- This is the ORIGINAL version of the JAWS RIDE. There are many differences. Just as everyone became accustomed to in the later version of the JAWS RIDE, guests boarded a tour boat with a skipper ready to take them on a leisurely tour of Amity Island. As the ride progressed, it became clear that a shark was terrorizing the town. At one point, the three-ton man-eater would actually swim up to the boat and bite into it, then drag it across the bay. Guests who looked closely may have noticed a mouth outfitted with genuine shark teeth. As an homage to the movie, the ride ended with the skipper firing a grenade into the shark’s mouth, causing it to “explode” after sinking out of sight beneath the surface. Chunks of fake shark flesh and water dyed blood-red helped to sell the shark explosion effect.
Unfortunately for passengers-and the company that had spent $30 million on the ride-that wasn’t the typical experience. Getting a giant robot to move through the water was trickier than anyone imagined. And its movements often failed to match up with the boat's, making it look like it was attacking nothing. Sometimes, the climatic explosion didn't happen. Because the machinery that powered the ride was located 20 feet below water, maintenance was a nightmare. Guests who did have to put up with technical difficulties were lucky to experience the ride at all; the attraction was notorious for never running.
Universal quickly realized that the problems with the Jaws ride couldn’t be solved with a quick fix. Then a guest, Anthony Salamone, fell into the water with the shark. Though the incident wasn't related to technical troubles, it didn’t bode well for the ride’s future. Salamone sued the theme park for $1 million, citing poor maintenance and negligence. Universal in turn sued MCA, the designers of the ride, for alleged engineering flaws and shoddy workmanship. In August 1990, two months after opening, the park accepted that Jaws was dead in the water. They decided to scrap the attraction completely and rebuild it from scratch. Three years and over $70 million dollars later, the ride reopened in late spring of 1993.
I cant wait for orca to sail the seas once again :)
Wait till you see Season 2 of my ORCA Rebuild series 😉
Ok
Will you make bruce to?
@@emilymallette7921 no
Ok:(
Where’s the new videos.
Soon. It takes a while to edit these videos considering I condense 4hr plus videos down to 20 & 30 min videos. When you have 20+ episodes filmed, by the time you edit them down, correct sound, polish the video, and then render it out to one complete video, you’re looking at 2 weeks of work for just for one video. Not to mention I put season 2 on hold due to the failing health of my grandfather, and I do have a life and don’t build boats full time. When one season comes out, what you see is ONE YEAR of work, not 16 or 17 weeks.
@@OrcaRebuild I’m sorry to here about your grandfather❤️ health/family always comes first and I want you to know that from a fan perspective we all really appreciate what you’re doing and are behind you 100%, thinking of you man, B x
@@brandons5426 I really appreciate that. I’ve got a couple of more things to film for season 2 and I’ll be done and moving on to season 3. You’re gonna enjoy S2
And I thought a monster in Loch Ness was unlikely....
