If they enforced that rule, most of the visitors would be tossed out. notice they never answered the question, when I worked there we were told that it is against the rules but as long as their arms were in the car it was safe.



I wonder how many people will have there hands up on the lift hill, but then grab on for dear life right before the drop?


:wave: That could very well be me. :lol: Only on my first ride-thru, though...after that it will be "hands up" all the way (and my kids are already telling me they will have their hands up the entire time).

The video is awesome. I wish he got permission from the park to do the footage at first so we could see more, but the little that was captured is awesome! The plaza is shaping up nicely.

I was gonna say. Read the description. As professionally done as this would seem, you’d think the pilot would have had the professionalism to ask permission before flying directly over the park. :thumbdown:

....and not sound like a scolded kid in his description. Ugh! That general attitude rubs me completely the wrong way.

Just going from memory. That Paramount voice was probably a professional studio voice. One positive thing I can say about Paramount Parks is that they did give us direct access to the big stars at Paramount Studios. Sponge Bob don't show up in an Action Theater movie at any old park.

You can really tell the difference between trains with dummies and trains without. It seems like the poly wheels must be breaking in because it's moving like it was with the nylon.
