My sister was terrified on the Transformers ride, asked for it to stop. It did, but due to a mechanical issue not because of her... She then said Megatron stopped it for her... I couldn't stop laughing! LOL! She's okay on rollercoasters and rides now

I am just thankful that I’ve had a great experience every time I’ve been there and I hope that doesn’t change!

The only bad experience I had there was a thoroughly unmotivated guy running Jaws: The Ride.

[katielinzie]

Here’s another Halloween Horror Nights mishap! Back when the Jaws ride was still in Orlando, they’d run it during the HHN parties, calling it “Shark in the Dark”. It was super popular and the lines were long, causing guests to get restless because they wouldn’t be able to see anything while waiting for Jaws. One year, they decided to send scare actors and Icons to the Jaws line to keep people entertained. A guy playing Jack the clown accidentally slipped on a puddle, landed in the water, and almost got crushed by Jaws. After that, no scare actors were allowed to wander by the Jaws ride.

Imagine going on vacation in a foreign country and suing a corporation because they didn't display stuff in your native language. What a world we live in.

This isn't necessarily as bad as these examples, but I remember hearing a funny (at least looking back at it) story.

Nickelodeon Studios used to be in Universal Studios Orlando, and one of their live game shows, Legends of the Hidden Temple, had a contestant once breakdown and throw up on a temple run. The irony was it was in the room that was called "The pit of despair".

Literally at Universal Studios right now watching this video. I remember these incidents 😆

Ppl always assume that when you live in or around Central FL that you go see Big Brother Mouse all the time…but nah…i would say by and large I would bet that most residents, if polled, would tell you the last park they’ve been to was Universal, and even more specifically, Islands of Adventure. So fun!

The dragon challenge was a dumb case. Guest were supposed to put their items in lockers but they didn’t causing someone to get hurt

[marwannuzrin]

Sounds like they shouldn't let Homer run the safety systems.




LoL🤣

Quick theory for Minions, The rise of Gru; Someone actually snuck into illumination studios and destroyed everything related to the project

[FaytVanguard]

Honestly these sounds too “safe” compared to Disney. Wondering what was covered up.

[roseprevost]

Getting stuck upside down does happen, but usually, when a coaster is e-stopped, the momentum should carry it to the next brake run. And being e-stopped actually means the coaster's safety systems are working, and are (usually) preventing a major problem before it can happen. You might get bumped around, but the alternative could be worse.

stopping mid air upside on a rollercoaster has to be the worst

Before Halloween Horror Nights, Universal’s very first Terror Tram was one single event. A man got caught between the carts, and died after being run over.

[sarahlamper]

I remember the shock at Volcano Bay. My friend was working and was one of the ones that got shocked and went to the hospital. He was fine thankfully but geez

[seanmacarthy]

Ngl, Disney has had worse things happen in their parks. Their rides have actually killed people.

[sammylane]

I really do wish all Universal parks included a dozen or so restroom stalls when wait lines times approached 2hrs + waiting procedure for outdoor lines. I've had to hold my bladder for nearly 2hrs before boarding the iconic Tram ride of which is a 4-ish minutes long.
