POV of Twister ... Ride It Out at Universal Studios Florida

[@jenm1336]

[@zacatak619]

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.

[@redgunnit]

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]

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.

This was my first taste of trauma as a small child. My sister almost dropped me while watching it and then teased me for being shaken to the core at tornadoes and anything cow or even natural disaster related in any media for years afterwards Thanks sis

[@thedailyembarassment]

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

[@ComputerLearning0]

I remember back in the 80's and 90's when this was a Ghostbusters attraction.

NIC TOO LOOSE dang then you’re 9... is there anyone at least 13 here? 😂

[@burresseffects]

RIP Bill Paxton. What an amazing movie.

[@k.m.6265]

man that section of the preshow when you walk through the destroyed house right before the final show is one of the most inspired pre show ques ever made. Even better than E.T. During the video you can look out one of the windows and see the tornado building and getting closer, and then when Bill paxton says "hold on for your life" The tornado is right there, the lights flicker off and the tornado siren cuts on. Chills everytime.

[@therealventures]

Ugh, I miss this ride! "Ride the movies", they made sure you felt like you were actually on set! Incredible ride experience! RIP Twister.

[@MalachiTheFallen]

You guys don't think this is scary, go to Kansas, Oklahoma, Nebraska, the Dakotas, or Texas during text months of March, April, May, and June.

[@Christina-my9nf]

Manly Chapa or illinois

[@scoggins07]

As cool as this was its nothing compared to the real thing

[@collarscoffeeco.1307]

Nebraska is a good one, weather changes every 5 minutes

[@bakedbeanas1031]

[@wolfgirl_4057]

Heartbreaking the fact this was removed, watching this brought me to tears, so incredibly ICONIC!!

[@TheDeviousDrDoom]

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="372">6:12</a> LOVE the shot at Disney with the hidden Mickey Ears spinning with the tire. Reminds me of the hat in the water at Jurassic Park River Adventure

[@CaptainMcPunch]

Bill Paxton was one of the most awe inspiring sights one could witness in nature, full of majesty...and mystery.

[@christis3565]

RIP Bill Paxton 😢

[@MegCherry25]

Hoping Universal does a revival of this ride with the sequel coming out soon. Would love to see this sort of practical experience done with modern attraction technology.

[@CaptainWyatt1]

I rode that ride in 2013 on my Senior year trip. I love it. I feel like I'm living with a tornado 🌪 that wrecked through the town. 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

[@NickP]

Oh how I miss the 90s Universal Studios Florida! Thanks for posting !

[@sailornikki7511]

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.

[@thecoatesieshow95]

I never experienced this, but it looks awesome! Thanks Jimmy Fallon, you've just given me yet another reason to hate you.

[@jadonplox]

I just realized... I went to this i think in 2007 when i was a kid and every time i ever thought about surviving a tornado.. i remember the guy tying a belt to himself to a metal pole to survive and to come and find out it was because of this ride

[@m.hreels9822]

Back when Universal rides used to be an amazing experience like no other! ❤️ even the line leading up to it is one of a kind! Attention to detail is truly impressive! That car coming through the top of the ceiling with the rotating tire, always amazes me beyond belief!

[@CharlZard19]

This is my favorite movie of all time. I remember watching this in theater as a kid. I'm so sad I never got to experience this😢

[@austinbowman503]

did anyone else get chills when Bill Paxton started to talk?

[@GeronimoClawz]

I still loved that one part with the car hanging from the ceiling.

[@AD-ny3gv]

Twister and Jaws will always be some of my favorite all-time rides. That said - business decisions are made and I absolutely love Diagon Alley and hopefully Fallon too!

[@crestedgecko2718]

Dr E.T. Diagon Alley is good, Fallon, not so much :/

[@basedjiren3889]

I remember going to this in 2000 for my 7th birthday. Love this movie

[@C-Valentine97]

Miss this ride, so good going on this as a kid!

[@Packerm87]

I was so young when first experienced this ride. The gift shop was amazing, I got a "Twister" cup, and I loved it. Broke shortly after. The concept is still being used today but back then it was the first and only of its kinda. It was a 20 dollars cup that when you push a button there was a spinning flap that created a whirlpool effect, giving an illusion of a tornado in your cup.

[@Mez591]

They need to bring this ride back for the second movie. It'd be way more immersive, and nostalgic for people who went on the first on.

[@davidedelman4536]

Rip Bill Paxton you are missed!! Game over man!

[@OhItsTurdly]

I'm so happy I was able to experience this before it was taken away. The video does this ride no justice, the power of that simulated tornado is something to behold. And the ride does a real tornado no justice.

[@StormChaserMaci.]

This ride does a real tornado no justice size wise. I've witnessed real storms with my own eyes. I went through TWISTER "Ride it out" long ago.

[@PyrosPelagics]

glad these rides have been preserved on video, wish most were in 4k+ 360 degree. good times, good memories i can still kinda enjoy.

[@SongLyricsHD]

It’s a damn shame they got rid of this. I love stuff that’s like this, showing you how they made it and behind the scenes clips. While afterwards giving you a live mock demonstration afterwards! Never got to see it in person, I’ve never even been to Universal Orlando. Wish I had though. I’ve heard the new Jimmy Fallon attraction isn’t even that good from a friend who went recently.

[@elbarto9633]

THATS what they got rid of this for??? Omg I hate him even more. A talk show > a whole ass movie.

[@Eisfruity]

@@elbarto9633 lmfaooo fr, the ride was not worth taking this out it isnt even that good imo

[@GarimusPrime83]

It was an awesome attraction. Not only was it a lot of fun, but you got a nice breeze and a spritzing of water during the show. It was great on those scorcher days.

[@jasonsreviews9955]

Rest In Peace Bill Paxton

[@julioramirez1053]

Twister is the best disaster movie ever. They should’ve not replaced this attraction

[@BBQ_turtle123]

time for TWISTERS!

[@elysharay7423]

First, love how they kept the Shining in the background lol! Second, I live in tornado alley so if I would’ve ever gone to this attraction I would’ve loved the movie references and the actors explaining how tornadoes are a natural disaster ranging from just enough wind to bring down some tree branches and knock power out a little bit to demolishing an entire town taking several hundred victims along its path. I live less than an hour away from Joplin, MO. I saw the tornado. I’ve been in tornadoes, each spring going through the lovely tornado watches/warnings. So the tornado experience at the end would’ve been a little on the silly side for me but appreciate the awareness especially to those who live in an area where tornadoes never happen or are extremely rare.

[@ThemeParkJunky51290]

THIS IS WHAT I MISS ABOUT ATTRACTIONS!!! Being able to actually EXPERIENCE and be apart of the ride or show itself!

[@painisthepath]

I hope the new movie is popular enough to give them an excuse to bring this attraction back. With a more modern city street and even better effects (and maybe some 4d stuff like the Disaster! experience ride they used to have). Twister was the coolest thing they've ever had and I was heartbroken when it got replaced. I know it was outdated but it was SO AWESOME.

[@steveulinski98]

Exactly what I was thinking. Only the biggest shame is Bill Paxton is gone :(

[@BBQ_turtle123]

yeah

[@Thoralmir]

Fun Fact: During Halloween Horror nights 2014, the queue for the maze "Alien vs Predator" wound through the Twister queue. In the maze itself, they recreate the scene from Aliens where Bill Paxton's character gets pulled through a floor grate by a xenomorph.

[@figment1988]

it was a good house, which was better than the Hollywood version that resembles AvP Requiem. The Orlando house was highly influenced after Aliens (including some elements from the DS game Aliens Infestation)

[@Thoralmir]

figment1988 Hell yeah! Shame they didn't have a Queen xeno puppet, but oh well. I also wished that I had downloaded the Aliens Motion Tracker app on my phone for that maze.

[@aliruelopez]

I remember going on this ride when I was like around 6 and cried the whole time

[@aliruelopez]

Was I the only that cried during this age???

[@ClutchboyzHQ]

[@clintbrown105]

My family and I went to Universal Studios in 03. I this was definitely an experience to never forget!!
