The carnotaurus is actually in its idle mode, the main animation plays when the rover pulls up further.
it does this to give it a seamless lifelike movement and it doesn’t just stop moving if you look to the back after the animation is done playing
That’s so clever! I remember obsessively watching those behind the scenes specials on the Discovery Channel as a kid and being blown away by the Dinosaur animatronics. They put so much effort into making these things as scary and lifelike as they could.
He’s not our Dino, but hes still our friend 😭😭❤️
He’s just misunderstood.
It is a fun fact that the animatronics in the dinosaur attraction never stop moving. Even overnight they are always in idle mode to keep the hydraulics working. Even when the ride is powered down the animatronics are always moving
Back in the day when audio animatronics were created they did leave them running all the time due to the fact that in order to keep them all in synch with each other they individually had to be programed. That is not the case with newer animatronics. The tower position for Dinosaur has the ability to turn all animations off. Every night as Cast Members conduct a track walk to recover lost items the ride is powered down and all animatronics go to sleep. The 5 steps that need to be followed if the ride goes down is. 1. Press ride stop. 2. press station stop. 3. turn on the house lights. 4. silence the sound effects and 5. Play or say the breakdown spiel. If an evac is needed most of the cast members in the tower will turn off the animatronics.
I just love how that Carno is just standing there moving, like he’s waiting for the ride to come back on
It was so strange that not all the animatronics shut down along with the ride. But it was neat to see how limited motion it has, and its just the strobe lights that make it look powerful.
Expedition Everest was a really cool one!!
It’s an Alioramus.
@@insideleosmind4313 not what I’m referring to on the video
he’s standing there like “LINE??”
Imagine if the ride suddenly blacked out and all the dinosaurs sprang back to life right there lol
Bro I swear I would have freaked out that ride is so loud
Yes! And imagine if it rained knives and the moon came alive and talked! Oh? Are we not saying stupid impossible things? I thought we were.
Better to happen on this ride than a roller coaster.
that would be piss your pants scary lol but i feel the trams would come through and smoke ya too tho.
@@ryanb4940 nothing’s impossible! 😉
ok but how are you so calm walking through the dinosaurs i’d be running for my life
We all think "Oh wow they put so much into this ride" then they turn on the lights and it looks like you are in a warehouse
This looks exciting and terrifying at the same time
I love that the carnotaurus is just chillin' like "Ugh.. again!? Guys I am trying to play my role here. WHERE'S MY MOTIVATION!?"
I worked at DinoLand during my DCP. I wasn't trained on Dinosaur, but I had friends who were, so they got to walk the ride at the end of the day. As terrified as I am of the ride and animatronics in general, I'll admit I was a bit jealous.
8:12 I bet this is because of when they redid the car simulation to make it less intense
That's a good call! It definitely could be from that. It could also be from both the front and back axels being able to rotate for an added degree of simulation.
@@JonHoltParks Ah yeah, absolutely, I didn't even think about that
@@JonHoltParks Yes, it’s from the different paths that the front wheels and back wheels take. It’s very common on old dark rides as well.
I had athe same thing happen on Indiana Jones and the Temple of the Forbidden Eye. We got stuck next to the cobra. It was in an idle animation as well. It also kept hissing. When we were evaced we went through forwards and got to see the majority of the ride with lights on.
That’s amazing! I’ve always wanted to ride that one! I hear that pov’s don’t do it justice. That’s really neat that they took you out forwards. I guess we were close enough to the front that they just walked us out through the way we came in. I wish we could’ve seen even more than what we got to.
Nothing hides a cheap set better than darkness. Still, imagine how much better the ride might look if the darkness was hiding an expensive set.
You really can’t tell the difference though. With the lights off it looks like a full lush forest. It’s actually amazing to see how they know what needs detail and what doesn’t.
Like Indiana Jones, the big sister attraction to this ride. That set is GORGEOUS, even in the dark. It’s a shame this ride was Rush built, as I would love to see detail like Indy. Would be cool if they added a forest scent like ET, as well.

Wow. The lights on really spoil it. It actually kinda looks a bit silly, if not cheap but cute......looks like ur walking thru ur typical museum
It’s super neat to see how the illusion falls apart with just turning on the lights! You’re right, it almost looks like a museum!
Looks cool somehow with the lights on:)
Surprised no one has asked this question yet but umm why do they make everyone evacuate going backwards on the stairs… In emergencies they always make you go forward not backwards…
That was something I wondered too! It definitely felt more awkward to go backwards, but I'd assume its because they figure its a more stable position for someone to hold onto the railings. Its more like climbing down a ladder that way. I guess if someone slipped they'd be less injured landing backwards than if they fell forwards.
Walking backwards down mobile and vehicle stairs is encouraged because if one was to fall, you'd likely land on your butt versus landing on your face. You also have "three points of contact" (two grips on the hand rails and at least one foot on the stair at once)
Universal does this to train their employees as well while exiting vehicles such as forklifts, high reaches etc.
Okay thanks because I cried like a baby on this ride, I was not ready for this (Granted I was in 6th grade) And I just sat there crying holding onto my mom 😍
I fell in love with this ride because it terrified me as a young kid! Such an immersive and thrilling experience.
8:07 I think those are the front and back tire tracks you’re seeing, since only the front tires can turn
absolutely terrifying.
It is this ride scares me so much I went on it once never again will I do it
I was traumatized after going on this ride, I was 6 years old and I cried when the Carnotaurus roared at me
Watching this video after finding out that Disney may demolish Dinoland USA makes me sad.
I've had dreams in places like this lmao
i enjoy seeing this behind the scene stuff
The animatronics keep moving constantly, both to keep their moving parts in working order and to ensure that if you look at it after its show animation finishes, you dont just see a motionless statue.
It’s as if the carnotaurus is just waiting for you to get close so it can eat you 😂
:50. Kinda look like the dinosaur was nodding his head in agreement with what you were saying.
This exact thing happened to us last week. There was something wrong with our vehicle specifically (something with the seatbelts--unsure what it actually was) and we were broken down in front of the brontosaurus.
Fascinating Jon! Thanks for posting :-) As I mentioned on Reddit, I got evac'd off Ratatouille once; there's a vid of it on my channel back from 2015....
Thanks for watching and commenting! It’s so neat seeing some of those views from Ratatouille! Can’t wait for our version to open in Epcot!
The alioramus looks like the giga from jw in light
My boy's out here all by himself with a carno 😭
poor alioramus...
Omg the lights on with that Dino is scary
Have you ever been Evac'd off of a ride before? Which one was the most interesting to see?
For some reason, I get a little creeped out when I hear the command: “Please remain seated” or: “We are experiencing technical difficulties”
Same
There is something about broken down rides with the lights on that creeps me the hell out. I would have been freaking out 😳
I think they’re super fascinating! But there are definitely some rides that are freaky to see with the lights on. Spaceship Earth looks wild with the lights on.
This ride is scary the Carnotaurus looks scary when the lights are on
This one is super interesting. Its so dark that you cant see anything except what the designers specifically allow you to see, so the stuff that isnt important to the ride is completely unthemed. When the lights are on you can see that, in reality, its just a big warehouse with a few sets placed around where you would be able to see them. Hell, most indoor rides are just warehouses with ride tracks and sets thrown in.
This along with Avatar and Tough To Be A Bug is one of my favorite rides at the park
Same alongside Expedition Everest
This happened to me once in the cat in the hat ride at universal. We stayed seated until it started going again.
This is my worst nightmare lmao
Ngl, this feels like Jurassic park. Park Not world
VERY COOL!
When It was dinosaur carnotaurus I love It scary
In show exit going to be taking place
Literally I would never last
Uh, I noticed that the wheels on the car that you were on were facing the same direction. The entire thing was diagonal while still on the straight slot. I know it’s four-wheel steering, but I didn’t know the wheels could face the same direction.
Probably fluid leaking through, into the hydraulic pistons, causing the carnotaurus to move a little bit.
Reminds me of that one goosebumps book where there is a ride track that shuts down.. I think there is maybe a cemetery involved and hands grab their ankles...and there is a giant praying mantis on the cover? Anyone know what one I’m taking about? 🤪
Shocker on Shock Street I think
I only remembered because of the mantis lol
@@avacadotoast5571 YAY! You are amazing! Thank you!
@@avacadotoast5571 lol yes!!!
This happened to me too, I just was too young to record
im pretty sure Indiana Jones uses the exact same track layout and programming as Dinosaur
It does! For the most part at least. They changed two small sections on Dinosaur I believe. But it having the same path was one of the cost saving measures they took when building the park.
@@JonHoltParks yep, they ran out of money like always lol... but overall they both worked out pretty well... I haven’t been on Indiana Jones but it looks super cool... I wish they would close it for a refurb to replace the ice machine...
The breakdown announcer sound eerily like Robert Osborne
Am I the only one who gets creeped out about this stuff
I was terrified of this ride when I was little
That carno is "Not Toast"
Maybe the lights are on because it’s behind the scenes
The carts are the same as the ones from Indiana Jones which have separate personalities.
Why is it sooo shadowed with the lights on?!
Toro is waiting for his prey so he can strike poor toro doesn’t know the lights are on
Any big drops or is it straight shot smooth ride
There’s no drops in the ride.
@@JonHoltParks just like a show ride
Yup! It’s the same ride system as Indians Jones in Disneyland. It’s just an indoor dark ride.
@@JonHoltParks cool wasn’t sure first time
Bet that AC was nice tho lol
What goofed up
Your car was the problem child. Two cars are never in the same scene with the exception of when you see the rover as it leaves baby birds and your car is at Salty. It happens daily on that ride. The computer in the car sends an error signal to the main computer and it shuts down the ride. At a million dollars per rover and each attraction having 16 rovers I can understand why Disney hasn't upgraded the operating system of the vehicles yet. The rovers are running on 1970's-80's computers, the boards are no longer made. It is a matter of time that Dinosaur and Indy vehicles will get a full upgrade. BTW on Dinosaur every rover has the same programed route. what you are seeing is the path for each of the four tires on the rover. Each wheel pivots on its own which gives the offroad feeling.
