London 2012 Opening Ceremony Fireworks (from within the park)

Some of the fireworks at the end of the London 2012 Olympic Opening Ceremony, as seen from outside the stadium, near the Megastore! First few seconds were missed, as there was no warning that the display was about to begin, and camera work is poor/shaky at best, as I was more concerned with actually watching the display :P

    It might be bold but if they just did the necessary TLC and refreshed DUEL for this year I would have preferred that. Unpopular opinion but the curse at Alton Manor doesn't flow the best, not really the best way of going about effects, some scenes look good, then others are static, sometimes pitch black for 30 seconds! The audio also needs some work on curse, its too overwhelming and I think thats what made it less scary, because it was so loud you don't really hear the jumpscare noises that made DUEL. Also the first scene about where you enter the tunnel now looks very odd i have to say, the theming that was on it before looked fantastic, shame really, but aside from that curse is not the worst, maybe if they made the trains turn on the mirror effect scene it'd be alot better because people can't really turn their heads 90 degrees without even knowing that scene exists.

    • @Deathwish026
      @Deathwish026 11 місяців тому

      the mirror scene is the way it is so that you catch it after multiple rides or even better as to how i have watched other riders one person will notice it and be like look at that! but its too late the scene is gone which then drives the impulse for another ride to see. its quite clever really. also the fireplace tunnel is way better as it adds to the story of how everyone in the house died. they burnt. theres indications of this around the house but some peoples choice to dislike things will stop them from noticing so il tell you. one of the first scenes the dinner hall has the guests that perished and they are all skeletons with glowing chests. thats symbolising a burning core. also the entrance room when emily turns to ghost mode look at the fireplace and il say no more..

    The idea behind a ride like this is pretty simply but must have been a logistical nightmare to pull off. Youve got to have the ride swing in perfect sync with relative rotation of the room at the appropriate height and speed (otherwise the illusion wont work and people will get motion sickness) whilst to the rythym of the music....

      Designer John Wardley specifically didn't want an omnimover. He wanted each car to feel alone in the dark, and also wanted to change the speed of the cars during the ride. They are self-propelled and have on-board computers to control the speed and distance apart.

    I went on this years ago, and had memories of the now long gone Thunderlooper at Alton Towers. This looping rollercoaster had just a rubbish little bar that loosely fell across your lap, only leaving centrifugal force to keep you in your seat. So, Hex's more solid lap bar in place, I genuinely believed that Alton Towers had absolutely no qualms about dangling their customers by a bar. The first time I went on Hex, I subsequently braced myself like a sailor in a crowsnest during a hurricane. I leaned so hard into the bar, that I managed to really hurt my hip. I was absolutely shaking afterwards along with half my friends. Only after learning the secret did I work out if I just relax, then the ride was disorienting, but totally painless. Recently, I took my son on it. He was just unimpressed, and had guessed the mechanism immediately. Its a marmite ride.
