You might be right.. it makes the same annoying noise as the bird loop outside Electric Umbrella.

Electricity always works too...

they should do that on SSE for those punks that jump out of the vehicles...... let that get around and i dont think that anyone would try it.

just turn the voltage up a bit.

Jose Eber · Jan 17, 2006

I didn't know people jumped out of the vehicles there... tsk tsk tsk.

Well its the afternoon, I'd imagine we'd have a few more trip reports out...from DAK cast previews.

After further examination of the bird AA from the crappy video, IT ISN'T THAT BAD!! It isn't flapping it's wings because it is so high up, it can just glide..

Yea I feel the same way. all I could think of when I first saw it was how lame it looked, but after watchin the video a couple times, it's grown on me. The way I see it, there could have been nothing there. I still wish they had something in the temple though.

Well, I just got back from riding Everest. All I can say is: AMAZING! I just watched the video to compare, and the video really dosen't do the ride justice. Watching this crummy video is nothing like riding this great ride in person. You guys will love this ride! It really is WDW's Indiana Jones Adventure. Best ride at WDW since TOT. Great coaster, great story, great ride, great effects. There aren't enough great things to say about this ride!

Can't wait to get back tomorrow and ride it more!

Jose Eber · Jan 17, 2006

Cool!

It's great to hear some positive feedback from someone who has actually ridden the ride amongst the complaints of all these computer screen coaster experts.

Don't forget to post a review in the review section!

Great news. All you people that get to ride it are torturing me. :lol:

My review of the ride won't go up for a while, because even though I have been on the ride over 12 times already, I don't want to spoil any secrets for you people who havn't gotten the opportunity to experience this amazing adventure.

I have a couple questions for you. How was the encounter with the Yeti? Is it long enough? How is it's movement? Also, is the projection cool in person? And finally, does the bird look dumb?

RSoxNo1 · Jan 17, 2006

Jose, is that the Yeti in post 1474. It looks like it could be, but given the lack of response to it I'm not certain.

Well, I won't post a review just yet for the reasons OmegaKnight said.(BTW OmegaKnight, I love your shop. Spent some money in there that's for sure!:lol: ) I will answer your questions though.
1. the encounter with the yeti is amazing, thrilling, and quite the sight to see.
2. I like the encounter short, it makes the yeti look more real, and a lot more scary. (When people see something for too long, people start to figure out that's it is fake, and not that cool. the Yeti is so incredible, and you see the Yeti for a short (But not too short) time, it leaves you asking yourself "What if the Yeti was a real animal?" :lookaroun )
3.fast, smooth, and again, amazing.
4.Once again, amazing beyond words. the video (like with the Yeti AA) dosen't capture how real it looks when you see it in person.
5.I think the bird is neat. I would still have it come up the first time, (it looks pretty neat the first time it comes up.) but I'd not have it come up a second time. (This may happen once the ride is open for real.)
The video really dosen't capture the feeling of suspense and adventure you feel during the ride. The sounds, sights, and overall feeling of the ride is not captured in the video. (If you do get on the ride for previews, don't mind the stuff like fire alarms and exit signs. They'll be gone before DVC and AP previews.)

I think any person in their right mind, besides little children, will know the yeti is not real, nor would it ever be real. With that being known, wouldnt more encounters make the ride a lil more exciting?

Why did they install them in the first place.

I have one question for you. Are the dark portions of the ride as dark as they appear in the video. Or can you slightly make out the rock work of the caves like on BTMRR.
