15:24 - “AAAAAAAHHHHH!!! IT LOOKS SO REEEEAAAALL!! IT LOOKS SO REEEEEEEEAAALLL!!!” Bless that kid ohmygosh. 😂😂 You are why we are in the themed entertainment biz, sweetie.
that kid cracked me up. I used to be a tour guide for Hollywood and I enjoyed when people went nuts for landmarks or places they seen in films. Especially people from like the Midwest or the south who aren't anywhere near the film industry they'd get excited because it's a big deal for them to see that. As a native Angelino I tend to forget that Hollywood isn't your average city I'm just used to it.
I remember those attractions. 20 years ago... Time flies but I remember the earthquake part vividly. The heat sent in the face to make the explosions more threatening. That is a masterpiece of immersion (or submersion 👿? ).
Wow, the past 20 years sure has changed. My father worked there. Great staff from what I remember. Loved the food from the back lot cafe. Met many stars, really nice folk.
@@MessyViewing0808 That's no big deal. I worked at Universal Studios when I was in college. the pay wasn't that good, but it was a cool place to work and busy during summer. the Fall season was slow.
I didn't know this was still a thing! I thought it vanished when the amusement parks started amping up. I went here in 1983, I think. I was sixteen. I loved it. They were filming You Can't Do That On T.V. Sat thru a taping. I remember a set with Battle star galactica ( the original ). Saw Angela Landsbury from Murder She Wrote walking about. Just magic. Way more fulfilling than the amusement parks. I was always a t.v. and movie junkie. THANK YOU FOR THIS GREAT QUALITY VIDEO.
Thank you for this. It's brought back memories from June 1982, I was 12 and my whole family came over from the UK. So much has changed, but nice to see jaws still swims around and the collapsing bridge in the background! What I'd give to visit the West coast again.... 💖
Did you get captured by Clingons, and rescued by Buck Rogers too? Yes it was good in 1980 when I visited. I think we got a better tour than is on offer today. You mention the collapsing bridge - do you also remember the Avalache? I would not return because I doubt this can live up to my first experience of it. I would need to find something totally new - but no fear of that - I doubt I can return to the USA.
@@kiwikeith7633 I remember the turning tunnel and the incredible hulk show. I also remember my mum freaking out at the amount of ham in a sandwich we bought there, must've been 1½" inches thick! I don't remember an avalanche, but the more I think about it the more I start to recall big boulders rolling down towards the train!
I visited here in April 1983 and again in May 2023 and was surprised that some of the parts were same as 40 years ago. The Jaws and the rain effect and the earthquakes. You should definitely revisit it. Don't miss the Water World show - the old-school stunt show.
Fire Station 51 is officially LAFD Engine, Truck, Squad 51 etc. They are there because of the show Emergency, which was shot at Universal in the early 1970's. The show also sparked millions of careers in EMS and the Fire Service since.....I was one of them. Too bad the guide didn't know any of this.
Done this train ride back in 1980.They had the drive through Battlestar Galactica spaceship-awesome laser show.The collapsing bridge that you drive over then the train stalls & the bridge & road start to collapse.I was 11 then.Went back in 1998 & a few things had changed.
Wow thanks for this! They made some changes since the last time I was there which was many many years ago. Nice to see the flash flood and earthquake attraction still there. Brings back memories.
I took this tour many years ago when visiting Cali. I can’t believe how much has stayed the same…what a blast from the past. Excellent job with the video. Thanks for the taking us along.
Amazing! This is really fun. I remember traveling to California and visited this place for the first time. I was really exciting and the tour around was so enjoyable. When I was there, the tour bus seats were so full, look at how empty the seats were. Seeing this brings back memories!
I admire Tour guides like Sammy (not sure if i got that name right): the must be cheerful and happy every time, every tour and have to keep repeating the same stuff multiple times a day. Me, i couldn't do this. At least not the "smile even if you're having a bad day".
This was cool to watch. Took it in 1997 and actually went to see the show Home and Family. Met Suzanne Somers because my husband was pulled from the audience to help with a cooking segment. Very cool memory. THANKS!!!
Ok, just letting tall know the gyroshere was existing, it just didn't ACTUALLY drive, for example the scene from Fallen Kingdom when Claire and Franklin fell off the cliff, that was made with a roller coaster track, that's why they are screaming in fear
I can't believe it has reopened I rember going their and when i felt the simulator for earthquake and didnt even scream at that time i was i think 12 at that time i didnt even has reaction to it but just think it was a rollercoaster
I’ve been coming here for 25 years and man this place is my happy place as much as anyone says it’s played … since the fievel goes west playgrounds days!!
Wow! That is so cool for the King Kong's Skull island. This is the coolest thing for everyone to learn about the movie business and lot of history at Universal
Me too.. my first decade there this is one of the few theme park survivors Ben back up Disneyland and will be hopefully at Knotts Beary farm and hopefully at universal
The Tour is the best thing at Universal. Universal Florida doesn't even have it since it's not even a real studio, just a theme park with no history. Universal Hollywood is so much better
Last time I rode was 1989. It's change a LOT since then. For one, no TV's screens. The original King Kong feature had not burned down yet, and the town square had been altered for shooting "Back To The Future II". There was none of the 3D glasses type of attractions then, and I don't care much for them today. 17:29, they use to drive across that bridge, which would start moving as if on the verge of collapsing. It was all simulated though. I wonder why they closed it? OK, I found out: "Since 2006, some studio tours have bypassed the Collapsing Bridge, due to aging and wearing. However, the bridge has since undergone renovations, and was added back to the tour schedules in August 2008. Since July 2010, the Collapsing Bridge has been used as a representation of the Skull Island area for the new King Kong: 360 3-D attraction."
Thank you very much. It's was so awesome. The rides, with 3D and making thing looks so realistic. Oh BTW, my favorite part is King Kong. Fast 9 is sooooo cool. Make me feel like I am riding with you.
29:48 I swear she's a sociopath. She has no concern for the diver while Jaws ate him. 😮😳 Also, the whole ride she's cracking jokes. They should make a movie about the ride and make it a story about the horror behind the ride. 🤷
i was there and on the dinosaur one a little kid loved dinosaurs but after that he was crying. Yeah. don’t think they’ll like em anymore. To this day, this is still my favorite thing at the entire place. idk why.
Maybe things are different in Hollywood than Orlando, or just different entirely due to the times. But I remember when the tour guides would be in character through the whole tour, not "hey here's a fake thing. It's definitely fake, so don't get immersed in it. Coming up is another completely fake thing. You're on a ride now, see how I just explained that to you?" Those were the days, I guess.
@@airheaded The ride sucks. The Florida version is soooooo much better. The flood part and the earthquake part are much more enjoyable in Florida. At least, they were when I went many years ago.
@@airheaded She sucked for doing her job??? This isn’t Disney where staff have to be all smiles, in character all the time. This is Universal and it’s literally a tour showing behind the scenes shit.
That was so amazing I loved it thanks for sharing this I felt like I was there I know I will never make it there but now I know what it would be like thanks again :)
back in 2002, my high school was a bus trip away from universal studios. me and my friends got the annual pass, (which was like $20 back then, crazy bargain price), we would ditch school and go there. i probably went here like once a week, but gladly i did barely graduate of high school.
I would love to take my children to do this! They are both in their late teens and time sure does fly! We'd better go before it's not cool to hang out with mom and dad anymore lol!
@@dantathon9328 well, my point was, that the other parts of the ride didn't bother him as much. such as the subway earthquake section and king kong part, which were more interactive. Where as the plane crash scene is more of static display.
It sucks that in the scene where the sicko was, there used to be a guy that came out of that house with a woman in his arms, he would put her in the trunk of the car and he had a knife in his house, he’d look at us and chase us, sadly they don’t have that scene anymore

I went to Universal Hollywood in 2018, about three days before I flew home, and man that plane fuselage messed me up for the whole 10 hour journey 😂😂
16:00 remember the giant animatronics king kong? Remember engineers pushing limits?
Now we get to stare at screens.. 😭
Yes...If it didn't catch fire it would still be around im sure.

That's the very first thing that jumped out at me as well. Emergency! was made by Universal Television, which is why that's Station 51.
Yeah,she started with Friends.She probably ain’t old enough to remember Emergency.
Actually Station 51 at Universal and the TV show were LA County Fire Department, not LAFD.
@@blastermaster2383 She really did totally murder what the station 51 was really there for.

Damn, I'm amazed that they kept the flash flood area for so long. I recognized it from BFL before she even confirmed it.
Wow thanks for this! They made some changes since the last time I was there which was many many years ago. Nice to see the flash flood and earthquake attraction still there. Brings back memories.
i have only seen parts of that ride on camera, it did look the same as i saw 15 years ago
That big spider freaked me out
Yes and I have the phobia
I think you should go to Australia, they don’t have lot of spiders, they definitely don’t have the deadliest spider in the world there
I love watching park rides videos, they're so exciting
N ,k.
I took this tour many years ago when visiting Cali. I can’t believe how much has stayed the same…what a blast from the past. Excellent job with the video. Thanks for the taking us along.
I did some way back in the late 80s.
I guess jaws and the earthquake one will stay till the end of the time ^^
@@raistraw8629 yes! 🤣🤣🤣

Man I havent been to Universal Studios Hollywood since 95 and it feels like Nostalgia all over again.
Yesterday I saw this with my grandchildren it's wonderful unforgettable experience.

Last time I was there was around 93 or 94. They had the 'Back to the Future' Ride...really cool.
Was born in 97 but I remember riding it back in the early to mid 2000s. Unfortunately it was replaced with The Simpson's Ride.
I admire Tour guides like Sammy (not sure if i got that name right):

“IT LOOOOOKS SOOO REAALLL”
i remember i went on a backlot tour, a special one, we got to actually stop and get out and look around at a few sets
Around 00.07 is hilarious. Someone shouts out something along the lines of, "Why don't I get to sit where I want!".

I miss the original King Kong...and his banana breath. That sound stage was the best.
Sad they no longer have a actor drag a body into the car during the bates motel , that was the best , especially when he ran at you
@@TomGeek1980 me too , when I went my self in like 2019 I’m pretty sure it was I did the tour and they had him drag a body then chase us lol
best part

So Awesome thanks for the upload 🤠✌🏻
The earthquake ride used to be a feature for the original Battlestar Galactica. Was a little kid at the time back in the early 80s.

I took the tour in 1972 and still remember it... we did not have 3D glasses, of course.

I was here in February 2022,A ride to remember
I went there for my birthday two years ago, the main reason is went on the tour is because of the jaws ride,😂 it is my favorite movie
The flood and fire scene use to scare me as a child..And back in those days they didn't have the little tv..
THE DINOSAUR SQUIRTED WATER INTO MY EYE WHEN I WENT ONTO THIS BUS LMAOOO
Are you sure it was water?Maybe it was excited to see you.
That was Great! Thanks for sharing!
you did an amazing job videoing this ... professional in many ways
Thanks for this upload.I really appreciate it.💜💜😷🖤😊😊
I miss the old studio tour trams painted with light blue and gold stars
haven't been there since I was a kid back in 2007
damn times have changed
man, would hate to have to go to the bathroom on this ride
I took the Tour back in the summer of 1977,back when Battlestar Galactica was the focus at Universal. I’m sure it’s changed a bunch since then.

I remember going there when I was 5 or 6 it was fun!
Great video!
Fun fact before Wisteria Lane was Wisteria Lane it was Mockingbird Lane in The Munsters tv series
When ever they talked about saying seated I always thought about that scene in the wizard where they jump from cart to cart and almost die
back in 2002, my high school was a bus trip away from universal studios. me and my friends got the annual pass, (which was like $20 back then, crazy bargain price), we would ditch school and go there. i probably went here like once a week, but gladly i did barely graduate of high school.

what happend to tour studio crash
do i need pay extra for this ride?
Do you have to pay for this studio tour ?
i dont think so but i honestly can’t remember but i think it comes w the ticket to get into universal
No you dont
How much is a ticket these days? The VIP tour is 350 now. You get fed and a semi private tour where you can walk around a bit. But that's steep.
Thank you it looks really good. And quite scary too
Thanks for sharing!
This honestly looks more entertaining and interesting than all of Disney world.
Nah
You did not say that
This is universal
Couple years ago, I was there with my nephew who was 8 at the time, and he was so terrified by the Airplane crash scene for some reason.
it scared me too lol
How do you think I felt.I was on that plane.
@@dantathon9328 well, my point was, that the other parts of the ride didn't bother him as much.
such as the subway earthquake section and king kong part, which were more interactive.
Where as the plane crash scene is more of static display.
I thought the tram crashed for a second
I went on the tour and wow incredible 🎉
Great Job mam thats all that i am going to be saying to you about that one.!'
I remember going on the bridge for the jaws attraction, and the name of the shark’s name was Bruce, that’s what I’ve heard from a friend of mine.
When I saw ted it made me happy
I actually went here I swear I like Jurassic park and King Kong so I LOVED IT BRO and my tourists was the funniest his name was RUUUUMON!!!!

I’m curious, why they don’t do this scene anymore?
@@earlgreydugong they still do it
@@god5656 I haven’t seen it since the last time I went I will be back next weekend hopefully I can confirm it
As of recent times that I traveled there, yes it’s still there I went on the tour twice the day I went but they only did that bit once.
This is my favorite part
Wow... !!! My best friend, It's always great. I wish you every day of your development. Have a happy day!
