I've been on this ride before. I love their simulator rides! I especially like the King Kong one.

[@adiblasi]

Yes, Dave, I agree. King Kong was a work of art, but they pulled that down to construct The Mummy. I tried to hold the video camera on that one - too damn aggressive. But, I'll try next time I go!

[@adiblasi]

Ok, you got me. It was 1992 footage again. LOL! Thanks for watching, Blake!

[@adiblasi]

Look at it again -- the truck DOES come down and bursts into flames. It's on the left side of the video, as you watch it! Tremendous! I was on the water side. And wow, I had to go to the bathroom after seeing that rush of H2O!

[@-The-Darkside]

I remember going FLorida in 1995 and there were afew rides in various theme parks with this exact premise and action. This is probably the first but a lot took from it

[@adiblasi]

@ilovemyfaimly It's actually incredible the way it re-assembles itself!

[@FiveMinsAlone]

I remember going on this ride when I was 8 years old, almost 20 years ago! Thanks for the brilliant footage, it brings back memories on my holiday to Florida! Just curious, what year was this filmed?

[@totoroiswatching]

Gigi Viola 1985 Earthquake closed in 2007 so I think this was in 2001? There was a different announcer. So I’m really confused.

[@Taneeka94]

I've loved this ride since I wuz 9. It's absolutely wonderful...

[@annoyedwithsignup]

A while back? Damn right, it's Bohemian Adam B! Niiice! 5 stars Al, great as always, so glad to have you back! Blake

[@dr0pk1x]

Very cool, thanks for sharing.

[@WillThePlank]

Great video Al i think i went on that like years ago or something similar

[@wvziccardi]

[@hjgolfman]

[@adiblasi]

Ouch! Go easy boys... because one of these days, you'll be there too!

[@xoxSAJ]

RIDE WAS AWESOME

[@SuperKilla25]

I went on that ride, it was soooooo fun!!

[@Brnboy313]

oh i am rember this ride, scared the shit out of me when i was 6. thx for bringing back the memory ;) thanks a lot.

[@poetictragedy19]

@lorielou100 I think they did re-vamp the ride, because it doesn't look like this now. Personally, I liked this version alot better. The newer version feels alot more watered down and tame. I am glad someone put up a video of the old one. Thanks!

[@Magnet108]

that place is sooooo creepy at the start but its great after!

[@Aarongray0503]

that was cool how the water started gushing

[@jtina61593]

omg this ride was amazing!!!! haha it must of put ALOT of effort to make this ride =\ luv universal!!

[@asskakakaka]

WOW! Earthquake back in the 90's looked awesome. The last time I rode it was the summer of 2007. It seems its lost a lot of its luster!

[@LucyMichelleBaker]

Im looking forward to this reopening in april

[@cphellp]

i have been to that befor i is VERY COOL

[@Kennilarsen1]

Fucking Amazing

[@GazahSCD]

Good times on that ride i think its better when your on the other side, but still a great video Al.

[@lorielou100]

Did they change this to an earthquake after September 11? I remember when this was the King Kong ride back in 1993 and it was in NYC. When I look at this now, it is eerily reminiscent of Sept. 11 to me.

[@fishnsticks]

They don't have the part when the Subway just breaks apart here, huh? I guess it was only in the Hollywood one

[@miaesc]

I remember riding this when i was really young. I sat on the very end on the side when the water came spewing out. I remember how i thought it was cool and i was like, "OOOOHH WATER!!!" lol

[@CanadaballPWA]

1:29 click here

[@djkevtmusic2814]

this is amazing i was on it as a kid. do they still tell you they r using it as filming

[@1mTh3On3]

dude i love that ride lol

[@hotcocoayoshi]

I was a kid when I went on this ride and I cried when the truck fell in and I peed on my pants when the water came in.

[@asskakakaka]

this is my favorite ride at universal orlando.I know they just changed the name and pre-show but I wish they kept it as earthquake

[@Brnboy313]

lmao, i still love watching ur vids!

[@MermaidGirlio]

I remember on the ride a few days ago they called in actors to "play parts" in Mutha Nature. There was this Hispanic (not racist) elderly woman who played a grandma.. It was firetrucking hilarious

[@SgtFox]

@MrKaoticGaming NAW. it's because we are not near a fault line

[@N17771]

I like this ride more now that it is like a movie called "Mutha Nature"

[@DreamBlogger]

speaking of king kong, look at adam B!

[@Leethellama]

What year was this if Adam still had hair?!?!?!?!

[@LucyMichelleBaker]

@kittycat0100 lol yeh apparently, its being worked on atm but apparently its meant to be reopening. Im going in april... eeek

[@EveofBattle]

I went on this with my dad when we lived in florida, I was 7...Best.Ride.Ever. THIS WAS EPIC NOW THAT I REMEMBER! I wasn't scared, I said this: Woah! while every1 is screaming :D!

[@Sasskitten]

@adiblasi Hey I was just wondering have you been on the ride where it had king kong? I think it was train to rosevel island or something like that. I rode that when I was twelve and it scared me to death. I also been on this ride here to.

[@DISA1998]

so this ride isnt there anymore? because ive never seen it and the last time ive seen the park was maybe 2007 in the summer.

[@MermaidGirlio]

Oh, my bad. Look really similar

[@purdylover1]

[@flowers45621]

@cardosoesteves earthquake is still earthquake just under a different name I know this for a fact I am a universal studios freak I have been for the longest time I follow up on what universal does every year and I study it way back in the 90s and so does my brother they opened there doors on june 7th of 1990 I will be a universal studios fan for years to come and I hope my kids will be to once I have some.

[@tiffanyisanangel]

@lorielou100 earthquake was not king kong it was the mummy that took over king kong across the stree from that pub or bar what ever that name it is near twister and the court yard they still have a lot of stuff still in the mummy ride that. King kong use to sit in there if you ever go back the lady told me if you look under neath the ride you might beable to see some of king kong stuff still in the building. I know this for a facted that there is still a little bit of stuff from king kong

[@jtbowman132]

[@adiblasi]

Be nice.... LOL!

[@hcytkr]

[@adiblasi]
