  2. Universal Florida Fun Facts

    --------------------------------------...

    The Studio Tour

    - The Studio Tour is listed as The Production Tour on the original map for Universal Studios Florida. It is also referred to as The Backlot Tour by fans.

    - Some of the former tour areas became more backstage facilities as well as parts of "Seuss Landing" and "The Lost Continent" at Islands of Adventure.

    Ghostbusters Spooktacular

    - As a tribute to the attraction in a firehouse window in Twister: Ride It Out's queue is an ad for a Paranormal Travel Agency.

    - As the Stay-Puff Marshmallow-Man was being heated the smell of marshmallows was actually in the air.

    Disaster!

    - The attraction reconstruction itself took 1 month and 3 weeks, the fastest turnaround time for a new attraction in Universal Orlando history. Among the changes include a brand new preshow experience, as well as brand new technologies never before used in a theme park. Disaster! also features brand new ride elements that were not present in Earthquake: The Big One.

    Jaws

    - There are over 20 'business facádes' on Amity Island.

    - Amity Harbor holds approximately 5 million gallons of water.

    - The sinking Amity 3 boat is one of the only remaining parts of the original 1990 JAWS attraction. Although the body structure has changed a bit, and it actually comes down.

    - The voices that are heard over the speakers on the boats were recorded by skippers when the ride was opening.

    Amity 3 is dunked into the water and pulled back to its normal "sinking" position over 800 times a day, the diesel from the boats cause the canopy to be discolored.

    - The grenade launcher's water explosions are not set off by the Skipper, they are timed and the Skipper must memorize when they are set off.

    Back to the Future

    - The Institute of Future Technology that you crash into at the end of the ride was actually a model of the Florida's version of the building.

    - In homage to the attraction, on the construction walls of The Simpsons Ride, Comic Book Guy is wearing Marty's futuristic jacket from 2015 from Back to the Future Part II. Also, Universal employees have said that in the ride's film, animated versions of Doc Brown and Marty McFly, can be seen flying the DeLorean through Krusty Land.

    - The modified DMC that was outside of the BTTF giftshop (Now a Kwik-E-Mart) was being used at the Bill and Ted's Excellent Halloween Adventure at Universal Studios Florida's Halloween Horror Nights in 2007.

    Woody Woodpecker's Nuthouse Coaster

    - This is the first roller coaster ever constructed at Universal Orlando Resort.

    - While exiting, you can see the remains of the park's former Hard Rock Cafe building, currently abandoned.

    On MIB there is a censor that gives 100,000 points and 999,999 but only a few people know where they are and they have never been hit before.

    MIB was planned to have a cafe. It was supposed to be a themed counter service restaurant where you could eat with the "aliens and agents".

    Horror Makeup is one of 3 attractions that has not been completely overhauled since 1990. The other two are Animal Actors and ET.

  3. they have rides based on movies, like:

    jaws.. you getta ride on this boat thru different stuff and if you sit on the edge you get close to the shark.. except for its fake.

    twister.. you stand on this thing made to look like your standing on a porch looking out during a twister and its windy and rainy.. and you get a little wet.

    fear factor.. its a show, they pick people right out of the audience and make them do disgusting stuff.. and i wouldnt recommend it.

    monsters inc.. its a 2 seater ride and you go thru this factory thing and try to shoot the monsters..

    thats all i can think of right now
