So, when we find out legoland had a new flying a new flying theatre ride, well, there was only one person we can truly send it to find out how it Works. Like only one person we can truly send it to find out how it Works. To find out how it Works. Like many of us, i to find out how it Works. Like many of us. I often to find out how it Works.

Like many of us, i often dreamt of flying as a | of us, i often dreamt of flying as a child, ithink of us, i often dreamt of flying as a child, i think thats why a Love Thrown Rights and theme parks, secure the harness, forget your daily worries and simply escape into the sky for a few beautiful minutes. This is the newly opened flight of the Sky Lion at legoland, it is the first theatre ride, i am lucky to be in it before it opens to the public. Its like vr without the headset the only person on one of seven gondolas, spread across three floors. The ultimate in social distancing. Its wonderful and complex mix of creativity and technology. Behind the scenes, the Maintenance Team kindly put the ride into manual. When enormous start them out, the controller takes towards and into a concave, 20m high screen. Heres a Close Up of those mechanics and action, which are surprisingly quiet. There are three for each access, allowing for a 30 degrees swing, a 20 Degrees Page and three degrees of youghal, thats left and right. During the ride, fragrant mist is sprayed so we can smell Sea Air or Baby Dragon burps. Its clear i watch the video, Lighting And Music add to the atmosphere. The sights, the sounds, the smell, the movements, the music, to be as overwhelming as it is, i know how the technology Works, but even knowing how it Works, it Works on my body physically in a way that is quite outstanding. Inside the control room, the Ride Operator monitors the consular� s precise movements and c0 is one of those responsible for working out exactly how its moving and when. fin responsible for working out exactly how its moving and when.

And wed programmed that in and then essentially go for a ride. And film that ride and also speak while were riding it and have a Big Digital Metre on the ride so we could say, it 2 10, we need to bring this Movement Back or exaggerate that big drop at 3 10, we have to bring that forward.

Even though the Ride Work with our camera. Even though the Ride Envelope might be axed, we trick the the Ride Envelope might be axed, we trick the brain into why, because we see it trick the brain into why, because we see it moves trick the brain into why, because we see it Movesjust A Little Bit down, if we see it Movesjust A Little Bit down, if we then see it Movesjust A Little Bit down, if we then continue the camera further if we then continue the camera further down and slowed the way the Seat Moves further down and slowed the way the Seat Moves down and then speed up the camera, Seat Moves down and then speed up the camera, you have a sense that youre the camera, you have a sense that youre going the camera, you have a sense that youre going back much faster than youre going back much faster than you may youre going back much faster than you may actually be or you may be going you may actually be or you may be going at you may actually be or you may be going at a you may actually be or you may be going at a steeper rate of descent then you going at a steeper rate of descent then you actually are, so its understanding mechanical Engineering Side of understanding mechanical Engineering Side of it understanding mechanical Engineering Side of it and then how we actually trick the Side Of it and then how we actually trick the brain.
