Hidden JAWS Ride Remnants and References in Universal Studios Florida 

Who else misses the Jaws ride?

I still stand by saying destroying Amity / JAWS was a huge mistake. It's like if Disney tore down the Haunted Mansion and made a Frozen ride instead. As for bringing Potter to Universal, they should have just made a show experience at Fear Factor, and then used MIB for a new ride. That way they would have had 2 Potter attractions, and then JAWS would remain. What they ended up doing just feels super awkward and forced into the area. Not to mention to us non-Potter heads it just feels like the same atmosphere as the land in IOA. Epic Universe needs an Amity some day. :) Great video Alicia! :)

Honestly the thing I miss most about Jaws is that soundtrack! So good!

I miss it! Especially as I'm not into Potter so its replacement doesn't do much for me. I also miss how much the ride terrified my daughter, and to this day any mention of Jaws makes her cringe 😁 Great little vid Alicia and with extra kudos given your history and association with the ride 👍

That was awesome and I was always a fan of the JAWS ride. It is a shame the both JAWS and Terminator were taken away.

Alica I definitely miss that jaws ride that was my childhood memories

Great video I miss the Jaws ride I it was a great ride it's sad to see it go I bought some stuff from the Jaws store I wish unverial studios would bring it back I was 2 years old when Jaws 2 came is there any movie props from Jaws 2 though 4 movies

Fun fact from a team member at UO/IOA Grigotts/olivander’s breakroom still smells of fish as it was the breakroom for Jaws ✌️✌️

I get to go to Universal this weekend and I’m so excited 😆

They NEED to bring back the ride better than ever.

There's another record in the shop window by a band called the says "the cal-AMITY".

I really miss this ride. They should bring it back somehow

He's under the fountain! 😍

Thanks for the fun facts,a much missed attraction along with back to the future & kongfrontation. 🦈🔥🦍

In the new epic universe I’d like a Luigi’s Mansion ride, a scooby doo ride, and a ghostbusters ride. I don’t know where they could put ghostbuster ride and scooby doo but it would be cool and jaws 😊😊😊😊🦈🦈🦈🦈🚤🚤🚤

Hey that’s my friend doing the Ocean Attack!!!

This is great! Thanks for sharing. As cheesy as it was, I really do miss it! Especially the music.

Awesome Job! Def makes me want to ride Jaws as well and watch the movie for the 1,582 time ! :)

Ten minutes? We'll be shark bait in ten minutes

I spoke to an employee who seemed to know everything about universal and I asked if jaws will ever come back. He said never. :(

I can't believe it's been nearly 10 years scenes this ride closed it's doors. I still remember the last time I was on that ride.

Great video! I love when there's references to the attractions that were there before. 😁

Every time I went on this when I was a little kid my mom and dad would play a joke on me and lift/tilt me out of the boat right next to the jaws animatronic and I was shook from then on

Great video Alicia! 🦈

Wouldn’t it be great if at Epic Universe they had an area of reimagined classic attractions. Especially an updated jaws ride using the latest tech that would be so awesome.

Even though the Jaws ride is gone in Orlando it's still there in Japan. I swear to God if they get rid of it I'm going to be so mad! 😡

They should have never gotten ready of Jaws.

AMAZING. Thank you!

I miss the jaws ride. I rode it twice. I wish the jaws ride come back I’m a big Harry Potter fan. At both parks. But this ride jaws was classic

i think someone should mak a petition for bringing back the jaws ride or just rebuild it

Here's a great Jaws tribute idea...fear down Diagon Alley and rebuild it!

So glad I got to ride it

Bring the JAWS ride back for the 50th Anniversary.

Another Amazing Video & I Love it !!! 🦈 👍 🦈

This video seems made for JT of TheBitBlock lol

Do references to Back To The Future The Ride and Kongfrontation

I completely understand why Universal brought Potter to the park, but I'll always have a slight grudge against it shoving Jaws out of the way. Does anyone know what happened to the screen used boats from Jaws The Revenge that were outside the ride's entrance?

My friend at his school gets to go to universal and I’ve been trying to convince the teachers that plan our trips to take us

I still don't get why they don't call Universal "Harry Potter Land" since they are taking everything away for more Harry Potter

So cool

I will never forgive them for removing Jaws you could have picked anywhere!!!!

Wait huh I have never heard of the animatronic being buried under the fountain crazy but which one the burnt the ending scene, the fire scene or the boat house which if I was to guess the ending scene but not the burnt version

Harry Potter land: *exists* Me before hearing “Jaws will always be there!” from a random RU-vidr: 🤩 Me after hearing: “Jaws will always be there!” from a random RU-vidr: 🤢

I really wish they could just relocated Jaws.

I’m not afraid. In the water, I’ll wade. Oh no! I forgot my band-aid (To the Amity island tune)

Do you think In the new epic universe land they will put jaws there? I know it’s not really related to anything but do you think it’s possible?

The shark in thumbnail is also at six flags st Louis

I still don't understand why they removed the second rope from the hanging shark. Instead of being a fisherman's catch, it's now like the shark is still alive and looking up at you

Have you read the Jaws Ride book, where the author interviews "old" ship captains about their memories? (author = McNeil)

so interesting!!!!!!

I remember that ride when I was kid

The first time I went here was about a year after Jaws closed down ;-; I don't see why they had to close it down to make room for a Potter attraction since they already have a Potter land in one of the other connected parks

Thanks

BRING A JAWS RIDE 😊👍

I've never been on it but i kinda feel sad it was demolished. Though i do have submechanophobia, so i'd possibly not go on it but just watch how it unfolds if i ever went to Universal.

I like the jaws ride

What’s in the water?

I got to ride on that one time when i was younger

What's the weather supposed to be like why Play

Bring it back to the new park

Loved Jaws, not a Potter fan so there is no reason for me to go back to Universal.

“SHUTTED”?

But...Isn’t there on in Japan

I still don’t like that they took out this classic ride...I never got to ride it and it took so long to design it back then...maybe they can make a newer version in the future

still dont get why jaws had to go to make room for harry potter

I won't go to the Harry Potter world ever!

They could have kept jaws and build the hp ride somewhere else

should have never closed it down or atleast bring it ack to the new park epic universe

Me

Gytoek

I'm soooo glad that I'm did not ride there I we'll be shark food right noe

I hate Harry Potter

Me
