Twister...Ride it Out, Special effects attraction in Universal Studios Florida, United States
This indoor experience recreates tornado conditions with water effects, flying debris, and winds reaching speeds of 35 miles per hour.
The attraction opened on May 4, 1998, replacing Ghostbusters Spooktacular, and operated until November 2, 2015, when it made way for Race Through New York.
Film stars Bill Paxton and Helen Hunt appeared in pre-recorded segments throughout the attraction, connecting the experience to the 1996 movie Twister.
The experience combines 300 speakers, 60 monitors, and 65,000 gallons of water to generate realistic storm conditions every six minutes.
Engineers mixed camel sounds, lion roars, and reversed human screams to create the authentic tornado roar effect in the main show chamber.
