shepp Posted August 7, 2005 Posted August 7, 2005 I was making a (weak) pyro joke on another thread, and that got me to wondering... What are people's favorite uses of actual flame-type fire on an attraction? I guess I'd go with ROTM and Escape From Pompeii...
USRoadTripper Posted August 7, 2005 Posted August 7, 2005 The fire that crawls across the ceiling of Mummy at USF. -Julie
Damien666 Posted August 7, 2005 Posted August 7, 2005 I have never been on ROTM but I like the fireblast on Spiderman.
coasters 4 me Posted August 7, 2005 Posted August 7, 2005 Catastrophe Canyon at Disney MGM and Revenge Of The Mummy at USF.

pvcoasterguy Posted August 7, 2005 Posted August 7, 2005 I think Revenge of the Mummy (USF) has some really good fire effects. Like when Imhothep is on the screen, there's a ton of fire that just sets off, same with the ceiling that gets lit on fire.
Sir Clinksalot Posted August 7, 2005 Posted August 7, 2005 ^ Yeah, gotta go with Fantasmic. Or Indiana Jones.
Ketchup Posted August 7, 2005 Posted August 7, 2005 When Tidal Wave at Thorpe Park, effect's are working the ride looks awesome. Awesome effects!
SharkTums Posted August 7, 2005 Posted August 7, 2005 I would go with either the Ceiling Fire on Mummy or the fire that nearly melted my poncho on Valhalla! Honorable mention goes to USH's Mummy Fire...oh wait...NO!
BarryH Posted August 7, 2005 Posted August 7, 2005 I would say the fire effect on USF's Mummy for being so cool. The dock explosion on USF's Jaws will give you a nice tan!
24 Posted August 7, 2005 Posted August 7, 2005 I have never been on ROTM but I like the fireblast on Spiderman. same
Coasters 4 ever Posted August 7, 2005 Posted August 7, 2005 Gotta go with the ceiling of fire on ROTM at USF. So cool!
shepp Posted August 7, 2005 Author Posted August 7, 2005 I would say the fire effect on USF's Mummy for being so cool. The dock explosion on USF's Jaws will give you a nice tan! Oh, yeah. Forgot about Jaws, which is particularly cool (or hot) after dark. Those people at USF sure know how to blow things up.
JT3000 Posted August 7, 2005 Posted August 7, 2005 I would say the fire effect on USF's Mummy for being so cool. The dock explosion on USF's Jaws will give you a nice tan! That oil rig fire is evil. I can't look in that direction without feeling like my eyebrows have been burned off. Even when I'm on the other side of the boat! My favorite fire effect is the brain fire on ROTM. Honorable mention goes to Spider-Man's fire blast, because it looks so cool the first time you ride it when you aren't expecting it. While on the topic of USF, here's a little tip: Don't watch Fear Factor at night. That's what I did. The explosion at the end left me partially blinded for like 5 minutes. "Did he say rocket launcher!?"
ebl Posted August 7, 2005 Posted August 7, 2005 I liked when Jaguar! at Knott's had that burst of flame as you passed it on top of the temple. But that was turned off a lonnnnnng time ago. Eric
