Jurassic Jungle Boat Ride - Tennessee Tourist Trap Attractions 

This is an extremely slow moving ride at nearly 11 minutes, so I had to cut to the chase by showing all the animatronics that are in the ride. If not, it will become boring and many viewers will just skip the video. As of the Earthquake ride at the end of the video, it was a full ride through with no jump cuts.

Could you imagine how scary it would be if the ride broke down and the lights cut off and having to find your way out?

the jurassic ride instills this unbelievably deep sense of dread in me and i DON'T know why all those huge animatronics in the dark and the long stretches of darkness and just. everything is an absolute nightmare, omg.

Honestly, taken in context its pretty impressive for what it is. No big budget behind it, just something someone put together. It's definitely cheese ball for the most part but there are some decent effects thrown in there. I think it'd be much better with music, which would set the mood and drown out a little of the compressed air sounds.

you’re BOLD BOLD for going on this alone

Me: Mom, I wanna ride the Universal Jurassic Park boat ride! Mom: No, we have the Universal Jurassic Park boat ride at home Jurassic Park boat ride at home:

Compressed Air : The Ride

I can't tell you how many times i have seen a gorilla in a cage on the Subway.

Dude....The dinosaur ride is entirely too creepy....The whole time I’d be going “🤞😩...please don’t get stuck, please don’t get stuck, please god, please don’t do it to me” 😂😂😂

You get on that ride and come back out In 1992

Its like the poor man's Universal Studios...in Tennessee.

This be scary... The sounds are super creepy and it sounds really loud.

Please always post weird and terrifying roadside attractions. Somehow seeing them with your beautiful high quality camera makes them 1000% more enjoyable.

7:32 "Eeeeuuuugh, there's rats on the wall!" "HOW!?!"

Anyone else concerned the minute those doors opened and realizes how slow the lights were to come on? Also, why were there a pair of human eyes on the side wall in that one part? 😂 this is like if someone rode Jurassic Park and Dinosaur one time each and then tried to combine them into a terrible ride.

Pretty sure I had a fever dream like this

The T-Rexes at 3:45 look like they're having a good laugh lmao

Anyone else notice the dislocated arm on the explorer mannequin at 0:06 ?

I remember my family and I took a trip to Tennesse and then on the way back my sister wanted to ride this ride. My two other sisters were smart enough to stay in the car with our mom. It was my dad, my sister, and me on the ride and I remember at the end the boat lifted up front and a massive T-Rex head came out over the boat and almost gave my 7-year-old self a heart attack. Thank god for my dad being there and allowing me to burrow my head into his armpit while he explained how "pretty" the dinosaurs were over the terrifying screams of the dinosaurs.

"I want to get off Jurassic Jungle Boat Ride 1"

I like how they tried to fit King Kong and Earthquake in the same ride lol

The Jurassic Jungle Boat Ride has more audio-animatronics than Universal's Jurassic World ride!

1:37 That is actually really terrifying. Eyes in darkness is probably the thing I fear the most

The EXIT signs, visible rods and cables, and plastic camo netting make it seem so REAL!

my mind went from “oh wow theres actually animatronics” to “oh my god the compressed air my ears” to “if the ride sounds like this... is it safe?”

i KNOW you did not get on that alone oh my GOD

Oh my god I remember the Jurassic ride from when I was a kid like 8+ years ago and it has not changed one bit. Im really surprised it’s still open. A lot of the animatronics havent been maintained. Like the raptor above you was supposed to “jump down” or “peer down” at you and it just looked broken and stuck. Also the T Rex at the ends mouth was beyond broken and the sounds were all out of sorts. It’s kinda sad I was so impressed w it as a kid.

3:50 when you and your friends have juicy gossip.

This actually looks great, I love cheesy fun dark rides.

Oddly enough, ride videos don’t usually trigger my Automatonophobia...but, boy, that Dinosaur ride sure did!! 😂

I went there when I was like 10 I think. Anyways I remember parts of it the ride was really broken/laggy it kept on moving then shutting down and I remembered how the time it was the scariest part there and then it paused there with the t-rex staring into my soul It was absolutely terrifying ;-;

Rode this 10 years ago, still looks the same. Lol

If Universal Studios was on a budget....

The trex at 4:50 is straight out of a nightmare

Is it just me or did a lot of the animatronics look broken?

imagine falling into the water with one of the animatronics though, flailing around as you rub against it

I love rides like this, they may not be amazing but, still fun, even if cheesy

So creepy! Even the herbivores look like they’re carnivores! And this is for the dinosaur ride. And the earthquake one is not that good it’s decent but really not that good

This thing scared the crap out of me when I was a kid. Right up there with ExtraTerrorestrial as far as traumatic childhood vacation memories.

Can we talk about the sound the pterodactyl makes at 3:23 that is terrifying

Wtf...even when those first doors opened I was like “....nopeeeee” and during the ride that feeling just got WORSE this is such a creepy ride wtffff. Feels like you’re going in there alone yikes 😰

3:17 Godzilla?? Are you hiding back there somewhere? 7:32 "there's rats on the wall.. Hoowwww??" Lmao

I stayed in the hotel next to the Jurassic ride years ago, my aunt and I got curious and decided to ride it one day and my aunt was horrified haha. I fell in love with that ride since then and always check to see if anything new is added.

Sounds like a Mental Breakdown™

I had a flood of memories hitting me with this because I rode it once and remember begging my dad to let me ride it when I was like 10 😂

This feels like the kind of thing a young family with one or two small kids would check out because it looks fun and the kids like dinosaurs, only for it to be the most terrifying goddamn thing any of them have ever experienced and making the kids afraid of dark rides for years afterwards. I can't imagine being an employee and seeing how many rides end with bawling children and furious parents.

3:19 is a mix of pokemon sounds and lazers

Me:I wanna ride Jurassic park! Mom:Honey but we already have Jurassic Park at home! Me:...

To the people saying the dino ride is low budget, its absolutely not. Yes its not in the best shape but some of the dinosaurs in it are actually from the jp ride. The stego and velociraptors most definitely are. Not sure if they were extras or used on the jp ride. Someone spent a ton of money on this to bring it to life, definitely a passion project it seems. Obviously its not up to par with jp ride which has a ton of money to spare but take it for what it is, a high production value ride which just needs maintenance and some audio revamp.

Thanks for riding that and showing how campy this ride is. Can’t believe it’s still open

3:54 When yur telling yur homie about this cute girl u just met

I have passed by the ride one time when i was going to dollywood last year.

I thought the Jurassic ride was kind of adorable. I mean, it's super budget and outdated, but adorable.

Just went on the Jurassic World ride last night. It’s definitely a once in your lifetime ride. Great for memories and laughs.

This is awesome. I love all dark rides!

Woahhhhh I went on this when I was about 8, this just dislodged a memory from wayyyy in the back of my head

I would have a damn heart attack on this thing. It’s like every nightmare I’ve ever had about animatronics come to life.

Please go on more of these! They look hilarious.

The dinosaur ride traumatized me and my younger sister as a child. A lot of the time it’s pitch black and the lights stay off until an animatronic is right next to you, and then suddenly the animatronic is illuminated. Just the animatronic :))))) Just watching this gave me flashbacks lol

Happy Halloween Socal Attractions 360! 🎃👻🎃👻

"Der's a trein cresh it on fire"

I heard a story in another video’s comments about a 6 year old who’s restraints came off on the earthquake ride. So while everyone else was enjoying the motion simulators and animatronics and stuff, this kid was holding on to his seat for dear life facing the very real risk of falling off and into all those dangerous mechanisms.

I've lived in Tennessee since I was a kid and always wondered how that boat ride went.

It's decided. I'm grabbing my phone and calling Steven Spielberg about this ride, because, IP infringement.😊

How odd... Yeah might miss this one lmao Adding I do love this channel btw! Great videos of Disney / Universal. Thanks

Last November we went on the dinosaur boat ride. As grand parents we enjoyed it.

Station control! Station control! We have a train on our track that’s coming right at us!

This is all very Chamber of Farts.

This ride freaks me out more now than it would if the effects are good. The jerky animatronics, the feedback from the too-loud speakers of the dinosaur at 3:18. The way you can tell it takes place it a giant warehouse with walls and air vents clearly visible at some parts. This all gives me weird nightmare vibes.

The mannequin missing his arm at the beginning, I knew this was going to be a good video

I have passed by this so many times wondering if i should do it. now im really glad i never did lol thank you for enduring this

Nice to see they haven't done a thing to those in 20 years. Loving the videos!

I love this ride!!:D

I went on the Earthquake ride last year and it was exactly as exciting as it looks

Nice to see they’ve refurbished the boat ride.

I remember braiding this as a kid! I recommend you try it! It’s short but at the same time very interesting

2:27 Little Dinosaur: I hate this job, they don't even fix us 97% of the time Triceratops: Yeah, just look at what happened to that Raptor near the beginning. Little Dinosaur: Wasn't he supposed to look down at the riders or something? Triceratops: Yup, but he's long broken now.

OH GOD, I REMEMBER THIS. I HAD NO IDEA HOW I FELT. LOOOOL

You know its gonna be good the second you see the one figure at the front with his arm hanging to the ground .....lol

Wow - the Jurassic Jungle Boat Ride is horrifying! It would be way worse if there were monsters coming out of the water too! 😬

This is literally 45 minutes from where I live and I’ve never been.

Love Corny Rides like this. I should've ridden this while I was there! I would've loved it!

I live a couple of hours away from Pigeon Forge, and my family and I like to go there about once every year to go to the nearby shops and attractions. Every time we went through I would see this ride and I wondered what it would be like to ride it, but I never got to. After seeing this video, I’m kind of glad that I didn’t ride this while I was little.

99 cent store version of jurassic park the ride..and family dollar version or Earthquake and kongfrontation combined. It's like someone went to Universal Studios and said " I could do this "🤣🤣🤣

3:20 imagine that on ur corner of ur ceiling

I grew up 1 hour and 18 minutes away from Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg in a town called Greeneville, TN. I haven't heard pf the Jurassic ride but ohhh do I know of Earthquake. My mom decided to torture me by taking me on that ride at age 9...had nightmares for months...THANK GOD we never went back again 🤣🤣🤣.

I believe the terrifying experience is why this ride is so popular. I used to go to pigeon forge when I was younger. Half the creep factor is the screaming of the Dinos, the dark and weird lighting, and the animatronics janky appearance. Water rides just freak me out in general

I've been here multiple times before. I loved and hated this ride as a child, it was very scary to me. It looks a bit different from the last time I had been on it. 4:05 around this part of the ride, the small hallway there that the boat goes through, there used to be gigantic hairy tarantula animatronics crawling across the walls and sum would jump out at you, so closely if you put your arm out a little, you could touch them. I hated that part. There were also flashing red lights and the audio was so loud, it rumbled the boat, it had scared me a lot. The end of the ride atleast, there was a little hill/dip that the boat went down on and a Tyrannosaur head would pop out and roar as you went down it like the old universal studio one.

I like it!

1:32 the way the eyes are just staring at you in the darkness is scary

Took a trip to Florida and we were like this is here let’s do it 😭 memories

oh my god this is crazy, i come on here to see wild rides from disney and other countries ill never see or ride and today i just scrolled and saw my childhood nightmare. Ive gone to gatlinburg and pigeon forge timeless fall breaks and every single time we are so psyched to drive past this and see if the t-rex is poking out. When i was younger and were driving past an I saw it pop out I cried. I have never been on this ride or seen it up close despite having extremely vivid memories of it this is just. Crazy

The video cover looks like some rollercoaster games. 😂

Did you guys noticed the giant spiders hey also I have so much nostalgia for this one ride because I remember going on it when I was like six years old and I remember making my parents go twice because I was and still am a huge dinosaur nerd and I literally thought that the animatronics were real and I loved it so I love this video

That was amazing!!! And now i know it’s located next to earthquake and near Dollywood one of my Bucket list park now I really want too go.

This ride is way better then Universals Studios. From the sounds to the animitronics.

2:52; that’s the face I would make when that next dinosaur came limping in lol

Haha wtf are those eyes?? It literally looked like this!!! 👁 👁

Amazing

Those have to be the worst rides I have ever seen in my life
