  • Journey to Atlantis is a water roller coaster that opened at Seaworld Orlando on April 17th, 1998. Inspired by the famous tale of Atlantis, the attraction takes guests on a voyage to the lost city that has mysteriously emerged from the depths of the sea. In this episode we take a look at the history of Orlando aquarium and zoo, the park being purchase by Anheuser-Busch Company in 1989 and its new direction, the attraction’s construction and story, the other versions located in San Diego and San Antonino and the changes made to ride in 2017.

    • @felicitacruz7235
      @felicitacruz7235 5 лет назад +18

      @Zachary Khan it never got an update because maintenance and the company itself found it to be cheaper to shut off the effects rather than replacing them entirely. Seaworld invests a lot of their money into advertising and vacation packages rather than their own park.

    • @felicitacruz7235
      @felicitacruz7235 5 лет назад +7

      @Zachary Khan no the money was definitely invested into the wrong things to get people to their parks but not give people the experience they expect when finally getting there like at Seaworld Orlando, that's why the Orlando location isn't doing so well, they've been experiencing budget cuts within their own parks to fund things like this and find ways to cut costs so that it can save the company money. Workers have been leaving due to the cuts, they've switched their CEO 3 times within the last year and a half.

    I remember riding this back when it first opened. It was unique from the pacing alone, with the fakeouts and main drop out front actually in the middle of the ride, rather than the climax. And the entire idea of a Pirates-of-the-Caribbean-esque dark ride turning into a roller coaster at the end was mind blowing. I think I loved the theming in the area more than anything (also why I loved Lost Continent at Islands of Adventure). I’m sad to see how poorly it’s aged.

      My dad and I loved the Beetlejuice music. I was 8 when he pointed it out to me on my first ride. It was a sad day returning to the ride all these years later to see not only the beetlejuice music gone, but all that made the ride great. It's still super creepy to see the silhouette of the unlit siren statue looming over you during that first climb. Love the absolute hell out of this ride.

  • @RvBnerd618
    @RvBnerd618 5 лет назад +89

    It will be a shame when this ride eventually closes. Honestly I think they should have someone to either rewrite the story, along with fixing the special effects, or do an overhaul and introduce new effects with a completely different story.
    I've grew up with this ride everytime I went to SeaWorld, I loved it and was drawn to the scary tone as a kid (Coming from someone that went to and loved the Alien Encounter at Magic Kingdom when I was about 5 or 6). It's a shame that they killed what I enjoyed about it, other than the rollercoaster parts. And soon, it will be sunk back to the ocean since Journey to Atlantis is not on SeaWorld's priority list as they expand on adding other attractions to Orlando and all other parks owned by the company. No matter what may become of Atlantis, it will hold a special place within me like a few other rides from other theme parks.

    • @lennynero635
      @lennynero635 5 лет назад +5

      I have never ridden Journey to Atlanta but assume it is pretty similiar to Poseidon at Europa Park which was built one or two years later. I have always enjoyed Poseidon but it has become pretty rough in recent years. Anyway, the theming of Journey to Atlantis is really impressive and I think it is a shame if companies shut down special effects and neglect such costly attractions. That is what I like about Europa Park, they do not shut down attractions or neglect them, the owners of the Park do quite the opposite by adding new elements to their old rides and thus keeping them relevant years after their construction. Something I hope Sea World will also do with Journey to Atlantis.

    This is, by far, my favorite ride at the park... Well... It was until they changed it. I loved the original version and while the story telling wasn't great, it was about what you'd expect from a roller coaster. The best part was when the siren says "Leaving so soon?" and you realize that the ride isn't over yet. As far as coasters go, I only rank Universal's Mummy ride better. Sure, there are better "thrill" coasters, but none that play with your head the way Journey to Atlantis did. So sad to see it in it's current state.

    • @mikeveselov

    Allure gets mad at Hermès because he redirects the water stream into her house, breaking her front door (which you can see next to the fountain) with an umbrella. That’s why she says “now you’ve done it you puny little pony, your friends are mine!”
    Also, Hermès was originally planned to have a script and a voice, there used to be a news van in the queue and the employees were “reporters”, and the original scene by the final drop was different :)

    For the record, I rode this within a couple of year of its opening. At the time I didn't know about the ending or the fact it wasn't a strictly "boat ride." I was amazed by it. I thought it was the greatest thing ever. There was a story but the truth was I didn't remember much of the story. However, I REALLY remembered how I felt when the boat suddenly became a roller coaster! WOW! I vaguely do remember the mermaids, but they were not a big deal to me. While I certainly understand it not being as great as a Disney dark ride, I still think it is an amazing ride overall and really deserves some love. While I doubt it will ever happen, it would be great if Sea World Orlando decided to fix it and make it an amazing ride with a cohesive and entertaining story.

    The San Diego version of this ride was the first ever drop *and* roller coaster I ever went on. I was only four years old. Nostalgic to think about it now, sucks that I never got to go to Orlando before the story got ripped out, and I hear they disabled the screens during the elevator attack part in San Diego as well. Thank you so much for covering this, TPH.

      I know that this is an old comment, but just wanted to say that you're not the only one who misses the original Poseidon's Fury! Sadly, we'll now have to miss the show altogether as it's passed into theme park history for good.

    I know its not a theme park or theme park attraction but I'd love to see you do a video on Orlando International Airport. Not only is it massively important to the theme parks, it has a very deep connection to them and a really interesting history that most people don't know. Just a thought, love your channel and keep up the good work!

    I've been on this ride so many times and... I never understood the story until you broke it down ha!
    Although I've been told (and it certainly looks like it when riding-especially if get a lights on opportunity) the large figure originally lunged down (similar to T-Rex).
    It's too bad they toned it down so much...
    Also--if have the chance to ride it at night it feels like a whole other ride. And if you're the last boat you sometimes get a lights on journey.

The original and intriguing theming, the Dark Ride Elements And ofcourse the genuine thrills of the ride!
