Wizarding World of Harry Potters Gringotts Bank with the lights on FULL RIDE

We were stuck on Harry Potters Gringotts Bank with the lights on and we were able to film it!!!!

[@daxoze]

Thank you for having the foresight to film the mechanics of the ride and not the washed out screens.

Right thats what I kept saying to my wife is show the cars.. I was I'm the middle left

[@SLOTHSRIDEUNICORNS]

I have autism and if I was on your end left, you wouldn't have ceeling in your arm and possibly fingers on your arm because I would be clinging for dear life. But then I'd be like *I WANNA GO AGAIN IN THE DARK!* Quick and extremely important question. Which seat or row is the least fastest but still fun without being overwhelmingly terrifying speed wise?

it's seriously not that bad. if you're afraid of this you got some problems and really shouldn't be in a theme park

@@Michelle-85 It's really not that bad. It's a motion simulator, think if it like a slightly more fun version of the cat in the hat. if you can ride that, you should be fine

OMG thank you for filming this! I am really scared of rides but love Harry potter so this makes it easy for me to go in it!

[@Pop_Candyz]

Amazing!! I never noticed that on the last "drop" the screen actually just comes apart like that! So cool✨✨💜

[@Mr.Killjoy95]

Thanks for recording and sharing! Always cool to see the tech and illusions that these kinds of rides employ to bring the experience to life.

[@illumascottie7506]

Absolutely! It was a quick pull out your phone kind of thing hahaha

[@Zamarae]

Thanks for sharing it looks cool with the lights on because you can see how it works! I was on the ride when they stopped it during the underground magma scene. It was funny because the dragon and all the characters left and we were just sitting there with “frozen” magma.

i wish the ride was longer and similar to the mummy i wish it would keep going instead of stopping

[@illumascottie7506]

I agree but I feel that way about every good ride. Lol.

[@KHudso]

Right?? As soon as it picks up any speed or does anything fun on the track it immediately comes to a stop to sit in front of another screen. You would think based on the movie this ride would be more roller coaster and less 3D screens but no

[@999Avin]

This is what happened to us aswell lmfao the lights were on the whole time basically

[@tassodemo2316]

I thought it was a drop like the one on the leviathan when I rode this. Wow!

[@turtles6648]

That drop is so much smaller than I actually thought it was omg

[@brandongautreau5930]

Neat.when I ride I got stuck where the snake strikes at you

[@wishingt0befam0us]

Dang is it me or is the coaster really is less spinning, than it actually is? I actually enjoy that thrill! But if this lights on video proved that it is not so fast and insane, as it appears to be. Then I guess if this is an outdoor coaster, then I will ride it. It really feels like a coaster I wouldn’t ride if it was outdoors. I only enjoyed it still, because it’s pitch black, and I can’t see how the coaster goes!

[@nickpaulo5202]

Is it a crazy ride with big drops or is it pretty chill and the drop is quick and not that big

[@SHADOWxCROFT]

The first drop is actually pretty small (comparable to the drop on flight of the hippogriff). It looks scary in the dark at first but it's over in a heartbeat. It's just all of a sudden. I hate drops but loved this ride. There's another part where it looks like there will be a drop but it's only the screen, not a real drop. Hope this helped.

[@CarleyAndCobia123]

I would love to see what the machines look like that drop water on the riders

Someone must've tripped while getting of the ride and stalled a train, that would cause effect/electrical problems in the computer.
