This ride is basically the only ride in which I hesitate to do, (THE FLORIDA VERSION) and it still gets me. It's such a tight space and the creatures and spiders get wayyy too close for comfort. I just do it to do it and just sit and bear through the whole thing. If you are scared of anything along the lines of spiders, creatures, or tight spaces, run far far away. Still a great ride!

The first time I got on the ride I didn’t watch any of the Harry Potter movies, but it was still fun to go on it, we had the fast passes so I went with my dad. The ride was amazing and very scary I had to close my eyes when I saw the spider and the Demintors because wow how close they get to you….scary. But I thought it was amazing, I’m surprised I didn’t get sick or dizzy. That same day we went again because my sister and mother wanted to ride it but me and my dad had already used the pass for the ride. The guy on the line was kind enough to let us ride again and I am very great full for that today. But on the second time with all the moving of the ride it got stuck, and me and my family where literally facing down, it was a part near the Quidditch match, and I was pretty scared because of how dark it was and since I was about 11 I felt like I was going to fall off my sit or the bars were going to open and let us fall. But the ride was operating again and their we parts of the ride that were missing (The screens) but everything else worked. It was scary but looking back at it it was my first time experiencing a malfunction on a ride. But Harry Potter: And the forbidden Journey, is one of the best rides, especially when you read the books and watch the movies .

The only similarity is the sensation of flying. Flight of passage is a stationary vehicle that tilts side to side and moves up and down. This is a physical vehicle on a ride track on a modified version of a mechanical arm developed by Kuka. As far as I know, only two versions of this vehicle exist: one for universal, and one for Warner Brothers for a Batman attraction.

I and a friend went on this ride a few years ago. Neither one of us are roller coaster enthusiasts in the least but she was a massive Harry Potter fan and I was reassured by how tightly you are locked into these seats so we went. So until I heard her screaming in unison I did not know she had the exact same reaction as me but about halfway through the ride seemed to calm down a little bit so apparently both of us had the same exact idea at the same exact time to open her eyes so that maybe we could at least see some of the ride. At this very moment the dragon's face was in our face with it roaring and spewing smoke at us and you could feel the heat of the breath and you could smell the breath. Literally it seemed like the dragons nose was just inches from our faces. Both of us screamed like we had never scream before in our lives promptly we shut our eyes as tight as we could and kept our eyes shut until we were guaranteed certain that the ride had stopped. 🤣. So literally the only part we actually saw the ride what is the dragon nose-to-nose with us breathing out at us hot sulfuric steam! Don't know about her because we have since lost touch with each other but to this day I laugh at myself about it.

@@jslandstudios Fairly big fan of Harry Potter. Been to the Universal Parks a handful of times over the years. I don’t hate the ride. I just found the movement of the vehicle underwhelming and the area around the various screens not very interesting. I’m also a bigger fan of hand made art (Peter Pan) vs CGI or even a mix of the media done properly as in Universals Secret Life of Pets or Disney’s Mickey’s Runaway Railway. Examples of lazy or poor mixed media is Disneys Smugglers Run and to some degree Ratatouille. Ratatouille could be so much better if the set pieces looked like they had a personal artistic touch instead of just being straight up molded resin.

I understand your argument, but I hope we can agree to disagree on this one. I think Harry Potter and the forbidden journey, with its incredible forbidden forest, chamber of secrets, Hogwarts bridge/castle, and Dementor scenes (amongst others), relies far more on physical media than it does digital media and only uses the digital media to add in characters/scene transitions that would be incredibly difficult to do in physical form. On that note, I do understand where you’re coming from comparing it to secret life of pets off the leash, where there is never a moment in that attraction where are you are simply staring at a large screen with no props (although the fireworks factory comes close).

Lo más parecido a volar! Una experiencia tan vertiginosa como fenomenal! La hice 2 veces, la primera salí fascinada, la 2da mareada y nauseosa, asi que recomiendo hacerla 1 vez! Vale la pena la espera! Fantastica!

Does it go upside down?? Im a ride chicken. I’m bolder tho sometimes if i know it doesn’t go upside down. I am a Harry Potter fan and I love Gringotts. I have gone through the case queue line but always usually bail out at the exit for those walking through. My mom got very sick on this and was experiencing it a whole day. I can usually handle more but i am definitely scared of intense rides. I am trying to conquer this though. Example i loved Cosmic Rewind at Epcot. How intense would you rate this ride on a scale of 1-10? Tips on handling nerves? May be going to the park mid September and hoping to ride this. Any ride that uses shoulder restraints freaks my brain out into thinking it must be really scary or intense

@jslandstudios Жыл бұрын

It does not go upside down, but it does tilt you side to side and almost 180° backwards onto your back. The shoulder restraints are purely for your comfort as upside down attractions might use lap or over the shoulder restraints. Just know, this is the most intense attraction in the park, and, while it is certainly nowhere near as intense as a roller coaster, if you are prone to motion sickness, I would not ride this attraction. On a slightly different note, both of my grandparents who have back issues, went on this attraction and loved it, having no problems.

@amyburkum7602 Жыл бұрын

@@jslandstudios thank you! I don’t suffer morning sickness thankfully. No ride has yet to make me nauseous or sick. Its reassuring it doesn’t go upside down and isn’t as bad as a coaster. I may give it a try. I love walking through the special line for walk throughs and there’s a small peek hole for where one can see the loading station. The 3D glasses (i believe the ride uses them) could be interesting but this also hasn’t ever bothered me. I’ll likely try it

I do wear glasses already tho- hopefully they allow it. I can’t necessarily see without them, not far away anyways, most id see would be dragons and dementors. Excited though! Hopefully i don’t chicken out lol

This is probably my favorite ride at Universal but it has a bad habit of breaking down! The last time I was there, it broke down 2 out of the 3 times I rode it.

@jslandstudios Жыл бұрын

Often times it is not actually breaking down, instead, it is momentarily stopping because of problems at the loading station. "Breaking down" is when they have to evacuate you from the attraction on a ladder and close the attraction for the day.

@@jslandstudios why they have problems at the loading station ? that not normal at all....

@isabelaa9838 10 ай бұрын

@@222JohnRambo hi, there’s a bunch of reasons. for example, if a guest falls while getting off or on, has trouble getting onto the moving platforms, and various other safeguards that can get triggered for different reasons. it’s usually not broken. i’ve seen it stop because the ‘students’ need to clean up vomit on the platform or because someone tall hits the pressure plate with their feet when hermione uses the floo powder. people sometimes freak out when they realize the floor moves when you get on lol.

Yeah! Like right after when you go into the screen, I look to the right and see the people facing the whomping willow. I didn’t imagine it would look like that, it looks like it’s just throwing you around so quickly and aggressively. I’d love if one day when you go back, you posted a video with flash that shows all the movement of the arms from the best views.
