Some theme parks pride themselves in being incredibly immersive, making guests feel like they’ve been transported to a new place. However, there’s a point when immersion and realism become too much. One person uploaded a video to TikTok of what I think is the strangest and most absurd dinosaur-themed attraction ever. Spoiler: there’s a gorilla involved.
The video starts off strong, with the person recording sitting in a trolley with other parkgoers. As the trolley moves forward, several animatronic (or not) dinosaurs come through the open areas between cars. They even come through the windows, knocking the trolley side to side. They get so close to the guests that I wouldn’t be surprised if some of them walked off the ride with injuries.
Strangely enough, the video ends with a man in a gorilla costume sucker-punching the trolley’s windshield. It’s pretty terrifying, considering how close he gets to the seated guests, who all look relatively young.
Immediately after the gorilla appears, he stands off to the side, preparing himself for the next trolley of theme park victims. However, some commenters think he actually looks rather sheepish for having scared the guests as badly as he did.
Honestly, I would be freaking out in the trolley if any of what I saw in the video happened to me. That gorilla better feel bad. The video ends with a gentleman reacting to the entire thing, expressing exactly what I was thinking:
And I couldn’t agree more: absolutely do not bring whatever that horror is over here.
