What if Jurassic Park was real?

Most people die of old age, diseases, or car accidents...now you can get yourself devoured for only $100!

That's probably the best thing I've ever seen.

[jynx242]

^This is the best first post ever.

 

I totally agree!!

 

I'd pay HUGE amounts of money to go, but only if I were traveling with Tyler. Otherwise - I'd be bored.

[Meteornotes]

I still want my own dinosaur. That I could take with me when grocery shopping.

^Screw Jurassic Park. I'd pay HUGE money to see Dave Thomas grocery shop (or just get gas) with his pet Dino.

^Screw Jurassic Park. I'd pay HUGE money to see Dave Thomas go to IKEA with his pet Dino.

 

FTFY.

[BarryH]

Well, isn't Dinosaur World like the real thing? I thought dinosaurs stood in static poses in grassy fields. Am I wrong to think that?

[saginawhxc]

Are those Intamin Cables used in the fencing?

 

If they are I'm not going anywhere near that place.

Only?,it quite a lot of cash

If the enclosures were properly built, ie the guest viewing areas would be 80 feet up or so perched on top of properly built walls that were structurally tested to withstand one of those crazy things attempting to break through, and having snipers with 20mm anti-vehicular rifles (like the one that took down Wikus's mech in District 9) for the big dinos and .308's for the smaller ones, then I'd be happy and I'd gladly pay a poo-load of money to go something like that. Basically, treat it like a zoo with super strong enclosures and I would be happy.

 

 

Oh wait, there are herbivores too. We could put the less dangerous ones in a drive through safari or whatever.

[XYZ]

If they were to create Jurassic Park, they better not have carnivores there or I wouldn't be going as it's too dangerous.

[Tanks4me05]

^Nah, you can still build enclosures with carnivorous dinosaurs, they just have to be smartly designed. Making enclosures is the easy part. If we can make fortresses that are resistant to direct thermonuclear attacks, we can easily make safe enclosures for a few animals. The largest carnivorous dinosaur discovered, the Spinosaur, was "only" about 11 or 12 feet tall at the top of the spine (when not lifting itself up) and 40 - 60 feet long depending on the animal. 45 foot high, reinforced concrete walls that are several feet thick, with observation platforms along the top for guests should be perfectly suitable enclosures. Yeah, they are big and dangerous, but they are still animals, and fortunately, they could still be pretty easily secured or killed if need be. At our technological capabilities at this point, we would still be the kings of Earth.

I'm pretty sure that many people would flock to the park as soon as it's open.

[Tropical7]

Would I go? Probably, if it is anything like the area at Islands of Adventure, it would be very fun! Plus, it was a childhood love of mine, and I went to Dinosaur World once. Might I mention that was the best day of my childhood life. The price of it, I would keep it at a low $40's range, anywhere above that is far too much for my amusement park, interesting places budget.

[UrbanLegend]

Jurassic Park just seems like a wonderfully terrible idea. I'd only go after it's been open for a few years so they work out all the kinks.

[Blue Turbo]

The enclosures for the dinosaurs could easily be done, but all the viewing areas need to be extremely GP-proof otherwise there will be lawsuits all over the place.

[Tropical7]

It's like Dinosaurs Alive!, except for the real, living dinosaurs, and the sharp and pointy fences!

[Koasterking48]

The fact that Jurassic Park is located on a remote island makes it harder to access for the GP. I would assume there would be a ferry from the mainland. Plus, ticket prices would be ridiculous for all of the upkeep of the enclosures, facilities, staff, etc.

[gerstlaueringvar]

Chinese knock-off Jurassic Park!

 

If they don't have coasters, I might need some time to decide.

[Jon Sabo]

If John Hammond really existed and "sparred no expense"

[805Andrew]

My only concern would be if something malfunctions or breaks down. If The Pirates of the Caribbean breaks down, the pirates don't eat the tourists.

[MayTheGForceBeWithYou]

^Unless you've got some odd fetishes, in which case that becomes a selling point.

[Meteornotes]

Every time I go to the grocery store, I wish the JP technology was real. I want a Therapy Raptor.

^A Seeing-Eye Raptor would rule. Nobody would screw with a blind person who had one of those on a leash.

[Diamondbacker27]

I would defiantly go, in fact I'm wearing a shirt now. I'm only a nerd when it comes to the movie. I have collectors edition and regular edition of all the films ( DVD & VHS ) 3 JP shirts, about 6 JP models, 4 posters, and a snow globe. Yeah I would go Plus, I am saving up to buy Jurassic World merch.
