Awesome footage! This brought back so many memories. It was and still is my favorite ride at Animal Kingdom, tho I do think the original was slightly better then the retheme.
Too bad I never got to see it for myself.
Do you even call it a retheme? It’s almost the same exact ride
@@gpla-ster9032 Same here
this footage is about to be even more important soon
I know, I’m so upset that Disney is closing this
@@28godzilla you and me both
I don’t want to get your hopes up, but last I checked, Disney hasn’t yet officially decided to demolish the area. Right now the ideas are merely being considered.
I can't believe Disney is wanting to tear this down. If anything, why don't they just upgrade it And dinoland USA. Encanto has no place at the animal Kingdom. And quite frankly, neither does zootopia.
@@BrianSmith-jx7tdzootopia would be better fit for Hollywood studios and Encanto would be better for Epcot imo
This will forever be my favorite ride. It's just so fun and scary with a cool sci-fi vibe.
the way the animatronics worked so much better then ahah i love this ride
Welp if there was gonna be a company that would sponsor an extinction event, it would be McDonalds.
1999 was the best year of the Century. And Countdown to Extinction is the best Megadeth song.
Little known fact: the red yellow & white pipes seen before boarding the ride vehicle originally represented ketchup mustard & mayonnaise. Each pipeline had the condiment's chemical formula. This was bc McDonald's originally sponsored the attraction.
Wow I didn't know that. McDonalds? Dinosaurs? Who knew LOL
It’s wild to me that the squeak you hear between the first carnotaurus encounter and the sauropod encounter was there all the way back then. I thought it had developed later on.
Damn knowing how frightening this was when I was a kid... I can only imagine those screams from the riders were genuine screams of terror. It's crazy that watching the updated version of the ride right after this one I didn't get the same feeling from the riders as i did from watching this from back in the 90s.
The Ride has seen better days. More effects were working and this wasn't even Countdown to Extinction's audio, they changed the Audio track later to the one used today.
Best footage of the original version of the ride!
Thanks!
You’re welcome
Wow,incredible! This was used to be Dinosaur Ride!😀✨️💫⭐️🌟🌈🪄🎬
And still is
It looks like they’ve done this ride before this movie came out because I can still see aladar face from here.
It wasn't originally themed to the Dinosaur movie
I had first ridden countdown to extinction in the spring of 1999 at Disney's animal kingdom. It is still my favorite ride at Disney's animal kingdom even though its name changed to dinosaur in the month of may in the year 2000.
I give the dinosaur ride in animal kingdom a A+
Before the Carnotaurus in the end, there was an asteroid in the climax section.
Carnotaurus I think took dinosaur I think took scary😱😱😱😱😱
I'm not sure.
Asteroid wasn’t ever a physical prop. It was just the lighting effects we have today with the orange trail in the trees and the big cloud of smoke filling the area. They just added a carnotaurus into the scene.
3:55 helllllo their
Love that part
This version was a lot scarier however the current version is still pretty scary
Awesome awesome footage!
Thanks!
Let's take a Retro Road Trip all the way back to Disney's Animal Kingdom in 1999 to check out the Countdown to Extinction (now called Dinosaur) attraction!
Dinosaur ride carnotaurus scary Disney's Animal Kingdom Is a great has been When you💛❤️
This footage bouta be more important
Real soon, that is
Wait this isn't Megadeth
Imagine if they had that song playing during the ride lol
This terrified me as a kid
Same
Ctx with dinosaur audio
That’s actually the after soft opening audio. The original soft opening audio was changed to make the ride more intense
Whoa, are you the Michael Flores from Zonga?
I think you may have to upload the full Festival of the Lion King show from 1999 by next weekend! Not this weekend, but next weekend on February 6th or 7th!
It's already up
4:28 did the Iguanodon always look like that before it was changed into Dinosaur?
This was filmed in 1999, and the attraction was renamed Dinosaur in 2000. I'm not sure specifically what they changed though.
@@TravelJack Yes but was that Iguanodon design from the preshow always the same from 1998 and 1999? Because that would mean that aladar's design was revealed 2 years before the movie.
@@tyrantking7649 sorry I don't know much about it.
@@tyrantking7649 the movie was being developed at the same time as the ride. It was being developed to loosely tie in. The changes to the ride after 2000 were just taming down some of the ride profile and dialing back some effects but those slowly came back after the 2016 refurb. So the ride was always to feature the dinosaurs from the movie but it never was and still is not tied to the story of the film at all.
Is it just me or was that bill Nye speaking one minute into the video?
It is, his voiceover is still in that area of the queue too
Yep, Bill Nye does the Atrium Audio.
This looks like the same exact ride as today. I thought it was significantly changed?
What you're seeing IS the changed version.
The biggest difference is the audio used for Countdown to Extinction was changed to the Audio used today. In the old version, Seeker was a lot more nonchalant about imminent death of the guests.
Other differences include pyro and laser effects in the time travel tunnel, the Pterodactyl actually swooping as opposed to being static, the Compsognathus were on sticks and moving over your head, a laser net for the Iguanodon, and the Meteor replacing the Carnotaurus as the meteor hits at the end.
The ride system, animatronics, etc, remained the same, just some effects stopped working and the audio changed to make the ride less scary.
@@tny1757 it was also a lot rougher initially from my understanding
@@harwickbranch yeah, didn't it originally have a higher height requirement because of that? I read somewhere that it was originally like 46 or 48 inches, but now it's only 40 inches so much smaller children are able to ride.
This actually is countdown to extinctions audio! The audio people are referring was changed before the park officially opened. But you can still watch video of that audio during “soft opening” recordings.
I don't see any changes from the recent ride.
Same last week I went to Animal Kingdom and I got on the dinosaur ride, and I am very shocked see how much has they the same/how little has changed.
@@kittykittybangbang9367 The ride was toned down when the movie ‘dinosaur’ released and the following changes were made: The lighting was made less dark and intense, the ride vehicles were no longer as jerky and don’t shake around as much and finally, the soundtrack was toned down as originally it would sound like the carnotorus was chasing the ride vehicle with footsteps and roars being heard behind
This isn’t Megadeath….
This guy’s a real one
Forreal lol
What's the difference in the original and dinosaur? This appears to be the newer version that I'm used to.
It’s pretty much the same!
There were just a few lighting changes and they made it slightly less jerky, at least that’s what I heard.
Vehicle movements are much tamer, soundtrack was changed to be less intimidating (footsteps and roars to imply dinosaurs were chasing the vehicle were toned down or removed), lighting is a bit brighter
