Jurassic Park: The Ride — Attraction in Osaka

『ユニバーサル・スタジオ・ジャパン』内に、水に濡れる可能性のあるアトラクションはいくつかありますが、このアトラクションは被る水の量・範囲も半端なく、ずぶ濡れになる可能性を充分に考慮した方がいいアトラクションです。 映画『ジュラシック・パーク』のように、人間のテクノロジーによって蘇らされた恐竜が、知力と力で人間の管理体制をことごとく破り、人間（ここではアトラクションの搭乗者）に抵抗するように襲い掛かる様が描かれています。無残に散乱された人工物に隠れていたり、繁み・水の中に潜んでいた恐竜がぬっと登場するのはある意味お約束ですが、このアトラクションの最大の目玉は、最後の落差約25mのコースターの急降下でしょう。急降下が始まった瞬間はほとんど真っ暗で、コースター搭乗者の恐怖心をあおるでしょう。急降下の最中に眼前のゲートが開き、池に向かってさらに急降下します。勿論そのまま池に落ちるわけではなく、水面を滑るようにコースターが進みます。その時水しぶきが発生しますが、着水直後はあまり水を被ることは。しかし油断していると、着水時に発生した水の波の返しがコースターに襲い掛かり、多くの場合その水を被ってずぶ濡れになります。防水用のビニールなどの被り物の着用は必須と言えるでしょう。 コースターに搭乗する際も、座席は少し濡れています。スタッフがあらかじめ拭きますが、どのみち何度も濡れるため完全に水が拭き取られているわけではないことに注意が必要です。

There are several attractions in Universal Studios Japan that have the possibility of getting wet, but this attraction is one where you should take into consideration the possibility of getting soaked, as the amount and extent of water you will be exposed to is quite large. Like in the movie "Jurassic Park," dinosaurs revived by human technology are portrayed as breaking through human control with their intelligence and power and attacking humans (in this case, the attraction's passengers) in a defiant manner. In a sense, it's a promise that dinosaurs hiding in artifacts or under water will appear, but the biggest highlight of this attraction is the 25-meter coaster plunge at the end. At the beginning of the plunge, it's almost completely dark, which will arouse the fear of the coaster riders. In the middle of the plunge, a gate opens in front of you, and the coaster plunges further toward the pond. Of course, the coaster does not fall directly into the pond, but instead glides along the surface of the water. You'll be splashed by the water, but not too much immediately after landing. However, if you are not careful, the coaster will be hit by the return wave of water generated when it lands on the water, and in many cases, you will be soaked by the water. It's essential to wear a waterproof plastic or other covering. The seats are also slightly wet when boarding the coaster. The staff will wipe them down beforehand, but it should be noted that the water is not completely wiped off, as they will get wet many...

This ride is very fun! It's similar to the first movie, starts off nice and you see the wonderful world of dinosaurs, then all of a sudden it gets intense with the dangerous dinosaurs coming into the mix, and at the end you see the T-Rex as you experience an insane drop! I suggest buying the ponchos they have, or just man up and get wet, because you WILL get wet. We went on a rainy day, so we didn't dry off for...

I love going on this ride, whether it is here or in Orlando. Always brings back good memories. The plunge at the end is really fun and exciting, but I think the best part is the prelude; the peaceful ride along the river, viewing the various animatronic dinosaurs in their natural habitat. As a ride, it is a bit dated, and I did see that at least one of the animatronics had died. But it is still...
