Earthquake (the ride)
Earthquake the Ride is a live action adventure ride that is loaded with special effects and is fun for all ages. Much like being in California, you'll experience a catastrophic earthquake once you are strapped in your seat, yet you won't ever lose any belongings or be hurt. You'll see another train on the same track heading straight for you, as well as sidewalks buckling, ceilings caving in, and also watch the track sink into the ground. Hold on for dear life as ceilings give way, walls collapse, and everyone panics around you! Just as you think the ride is over, water pours into the room to startle the heck out of you! The ride is for all ages over 3, so bring whomever and whatever you want to Earthquake. Experience sensory overload with all the crumbling, tumbling, and lights going crazy right in front of your eyes. Located right in the middle of Gatlinburg TN, Earthquake is located ideally for those shoppers who seek a thrill-seeking adventure. The ride lets you experience a catastrophic earthquake with live action adventure loaded with high-tech special effects. If you have ever been to the Earthquake ride at Universal Studios then you will know just what it's like to get on the Earthquake in Gatlinburg TN. They are very similar, and very exciting.
