      i was in the 1st grade, and instead of disney my parent brought me to universal and proceeded to tell me that all these attractions, such us disaster, twister, mummy, Jaws, etc were real. Id ask them "is it real am i gonna die" and they were just like "it is real, but you should be ok" I was crying everytime. Not to mention i was not tall enough to go on any of the rollercoasters that I actually wanted to ride.

    My favorite part on this ride as a kid was walking through that broken up house at the start. I loved the amount of detail they put into it. Some of these old rides I really, really miss. Like old Jaws and Earthquake. I've always had a love for natural disaster simulator rides 😭

We always lived in Central Florida, so I've been there dozens of times. At least E.T. is still there. I make sure to ride it every time, just in case..... Only remaining original attraction

      That exact part was something that stuck with me too. As a kid I was terrified of that area especially since where I grew up at was a bit outside the edge of Tornado Alley. Kept picturing that could be my house plus the moment when the guests are ready to enter the theater and you hear the sirens going off and the twister approaching.

      I agree with your choices but I would also like to include Back To The Future as well as that ride was great. Once again get rid of a classic like Twister and replace it with a Late Night talk show host Jimmy Fallon. Get rid of Back To The Future ride for a very terrible The Simpsons ride.

    • @thetokutickler
      @thetokutickler 29 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      To be fair the Harry Potter stuff at Universal is incredibly solid (despite JK Rowling's attempts to ruin everything and burn it all to the ground), so I can bear with that one even though it replaced Jaws. The Simpsons ride on the otherhand replaced a ride for one of the greatest movies of all time with a ride for a show that was already past its prime even back then. The Jimmy Fallon ride was pretty fun the first time riding, but that small amount of fun isn't there the second time around, so it sucks that it replaced one of the best attractions.
      But, my friends, all of this is peanuts compared to the greatest crime against theme parks in all of history; the abortion known as "Fast and Furious Supercharged"! This monstrosity of a """ride""" replaced both Disaster AND Beetlejuice's Graveyard Revue! Two whole attractions had to be taken down because despite it being such a short and underwhelming experience, it somehow takes up an ungodly massive footprint!

    My favorite thing about theme park/haunted attractions are always the sets. They are like paintings: scenes captured in time, but here you can actually walk into them and marvel in awe at the detail. The set seen throughout this attraction, from the outside building to the interior, is insanely cool! The level of detail and immersion in this disaster-ravaged environment they put you in is off the charts. Love the chaotic feel, it's almost as if you put several action scenes in a movie on pause and started walking through it. And then when you actually get to the tornado, the effects are amazing! Love how the ceiling and walls are all massive screens with CG, and I really wanna know how they made the giant sign and thing from the gas station go flying away. Makes me wonder about the structural integrity of the place haha.

    I’m so happy I found this! It’s so disappointing that they got rid of this! I went to Disney and Universal with my family when I was 5. This was and is my favorite movie, I’ve been obsessed with tornadoes since I was a little kid. I remember being so excited to go on this “ride” but it absolutely terrified me! I don’t remember everything that it showed but I remember the tornado just shooting down super fast from the sky right in front of us. I started screaming and crying. My brother picked me up, held me in his arms (still my hero to this day) and carried me out at the end lol. It’s my dream to chase tornadoes one day. Shout out to all my fellow storm chasers and RIP Bill Paxton, “The Extreme.”

    This Old attraction at Universal Studios Florida just proves how powerful a tornado can be. Experiencing this ride is just as good or as near as experiencing a tornado warning in reality. And it just proves how powerful they can be in reality if you think you can overestimate the tornado. They did a phenomenal job with this attraction I still can’t believe they took it down and I never even had a chance to experience it. But I can see from the main show in this video that they did a really magnificent job and made the ride look very realistic. I loved how the projected tornado tore up the movie screen in the beginning. I also loved it when the glass shattered and all things that you’d expect a tornado to do.

    Man, I loved this ride when I was a kid, and I'll admit, I got absolutely intimidated and scared shitless when the tornado started to approach from the background. It was mostly something about how much larger it looked than when it actually appeared in front of us that struck a chord with me. Overall, it was a great ride and I'm sad that it's gone because I had such a good first experience with it.

    I first went to this ride back in 2005 and 2006 and loved it! That giant tall funnel cloud of the tornado reminded me of a small sample of one at a museum I went. One thing that was ironic and iconic was the damaged Aunt Meg’s house that I wouldn’t have known about. And when the winds blew and the sirens went on before moving into the next room was like the tornado is coming back to finish the job. It felt crazy, but something worth while. I’ll miss Twister: Ride it Out, but with some TH-cam videos I can always come back and enjoy.

Seeing the damage while walking through before the ride, I couldn't imagine how much the twister would do this damage. During the ride, I have to hold on my hat, my mom, my brother, and my things because it feels like a twister is right in front of us, the roof and everything. They're not wrong, twisters is very powerful and stronger than a hurricane. I miss this ride. Hopefully one day we'll bring it back. That's the ride I'll never forget on my Senior year trip

      They closed it a couple of weeks ago. Their going to Boulder something else in its place.

      +BoobieIAm They also modied the effects on Twister so that probably made a huge difference. I've been to Universal Studios several times over the last 15 years so when they changed some of the effects on Twister I was able to notice immediately. All the changes made it wayyyy less suspenseful and thus made it LAME. It wasn't just your childhood perception that altered the experience!

      Rachel Rae Why and when they do that? Universal is/has NEVER been a park for children. The parks work best when they are catered to thrill seekers, older kids, teens, and adults.

    Something about hearing Bill Paxton's voice brings a tear to my eye. Bill and Seymour you will be missed.

    I wish it didn't close down when I went to Orlando. it's my fave movie Bill Paxton was in. I was so sad to hear he passed away.

    I loved this ride. When I went, they still had the van, station wagon, tractor, and trucks outside in the queue. Thanks for letting me re-live this moment in my life.
