Fox 19 now says one of the dinos caught fire, oops!

How in the world?

It's Cedar Fair. Anything can happen.

If true, Avatar was more right than he may have liked. Dino leg on fire indeed!

"The "Dinosaurs Alive" exhibit was scheduled to open Thursday".

Wonder if this means this will delay the opening of this attraction? It says WAS and not IS? Makes ya wonder huh?

Wow. This is a really bad year for Kings Island, in terms of the events that have happened.

That's alot of smoke from one dino.

What events do you talk about? Bad year? Winderseeker didn't open on time, how is that events? Just wondering what events your talkin about.

I almost hesitate to say this but there are those in creation who probably arkn't too upset about what has been wrought, but they have certain incentives to feel that way. The mere thought is quite taxing.

True, true, not really events but....unfortunate things?

WindSeeker not opening, earlier in the year a transformer fire, this fire, a lot of hate from people, bad start to the year (opening day)....so not really events, more of....yah, those.

How does one manage to get an anamatronic dinosaur to catch fire, and two days before opening? I don't know whether to laugh, facepalm, or be worried.

FIRE is a great enemy of all parks.

My guess electrical?

My guess electrical?

Probably. Maybe all the moisture shorted something, who knows.

So, while the kids enjoy watching the Dinos, the parents have to plot escape routes in case of fire.

I don't know why, but that just made me laugh so much. I don't know whether it was made to funny or not. Brings a whole new meaning to Escape from Dino Isle.

Is it a bad idea to yell "Fire" in a crowded Action Theater?

"New addition to DA, Pete's Dragon, Elliot"

Seriously, very glad no one was hurt.

Breaking news: The Park has revealed the que music for Dinosaurs Alive.....

Video of CW WindSeeker with people/

So will this ride be Extinct before it even opens?

Wow self combustible dinos.

Now I might pay $5 to see this!

Hmm not a good start to the year.

Probably just Kinzel's Karma.

I love Cedar Fair parks though and am very excited about DA! and how nice the parks are looking.

Depends on what you mean by ride. Dinosaurs Alive is not a ride but a walk through attraction. Talking with one of the DA Crew Members on Sunday, she will be driving a golf cart with seating for 6 around the attraction. This golf cart to my knowledge and her knowledge will be used for those with handicaps.

Thank you Nemo for posting that video. I can't wait to ride one of these massive seekers of wind!

Look at this image I just happened to catch just a few minutes ago. It was gone when I refreshed the page a minute later.

Yes, it was a rather soggy day at the park. Some pictures will be posted on the site here soon from Dinosaurs Alive! In my opinion, it is well worth the $5 charge. The first time we went through, not taking time to read the signs or snap any pictures, it took us nearly fifty minutes to get through the entire thing! Now if only that pesky rain can stop!

^ Can you see any of the dinos from the rides or are the pretty much hidden?

Well, other than the one that is right across the maintenance path from The Racer, they are all pretty much hidden from view from any rides, including the Eiffel Tower. And other than a few glimpses of The Racer, and WindSeeker, the only other indication of a ride that you will hear is Firehawk`s lift hill. All the trees and the topography back there definitely adds to the setting for the attraction.

Oh yeah...I bet CP's WindSeeker will cycle riders faster 'cause it's gonna hold TWICE as many riders as KI's WindSeeker!

I actually heard while in line for Delirium a couple of weeks ago that maXair in CP holds 75 riders versus Delirium's 50. Banging.... Head..... On.....Que..... Rail!

I know I'm replying to a very old post, but that's nothing. Oh the things I learn in queue lines. Apparently Top Gun once had floorless inverted cars. But they took them off because they derailed and killed a whole train of people. And also, The Beast had a loop. But that also got taken out when someone who wasn't buckled in well fell out. I love the GP.

Someone reported over on pointbuzz that CP's WindSeeker tossed a dummy or two during testing yesterday. I'll be watching the webcams closely today.

^ Wow, that makes me feel safe! Hahaha

It shouldn't be much longer until WindSeeker opens. should it?

And Another question, did DA open Thursday?
