Wild Wild West Stunt Show Walls Removed

[smoaT]

The Special Effects Stage is going to be removed as part of the Evolution Plan. As for what could replace it, I have no idea. We should keep the rest of our shows for now since WaterWorld will be leaving in 2015.

Hey hey lets not talk about removing WaterWorld yet... please!! I have seen the Indiana Jones stunt show in Orlando (in youtube mind you, I don't have the money to travel around the US puff lol) and well WaterWorld is spectacular because it's a water stage. Yes, the movie was crap but the show is just spectacular... I love how first timers are impressed when the plane shoots out and well it makes me remember when I was a kid and how this was awesome to me... to see a bit of movie magic....

Being realistic, it'll be leaving pretty soon   I'd honestly hate to see it go. I feel like the actors always put out their all when performing. When an effect doesn't work or something doesn't go right or as planned, they continue on beautifully and act as if it never happened. I'll definitely miss Greg Dolph as the Deacon.. He's my personal favorite!

I could sing praises to Greg for years. He's a friend of the site and a friend of mine and he is just such a joy to be around and a joy to watch perform. His positive attitude and personality make him an absolute pleasure to be around.

Is he the friend you've previously mentioned that works in WaterWorld?

One of them, yes. But I've also gotten to know a good deal of the others over the years, like Hawk Walts, Tim Sitarz, Lon Gowan, and Helena Barrett. All very super nice people.

 

[William]

Wow..! How'd you get to meet them all?

by sticking around after the show by the hammerhead skeleton. They come out for photos and chit chat. I started talking to them a few years ago.

Interesting, right? Crazy what the difference between Florida and California building laws are. Florida built a giant E Ticket transformers ride in less than a year and we're going snail pace for a little park like area.

Don't mention that comparison again. I might start crying.  It's pretty ridiculous, though, to say the least..

I've only seen Greg once, but I got to meet the Mariner the last time I visited!

Which Mariner? Greg Dela Riva of the team that Greg Dolph and co are on (Other-Greg as I call him) or another?

 

[William]

Greg Dela Riva.  Cool guy. He took my Ravenclaw lanyard when I met him and said to "the Brazilian guy," "Man, I thought this was a real tie. Hey, we could hang you from this!"

Awesome! Greg is really funny. Rico - the Brazilian guy - is super cool as well and totally a crowd favorite.

Is the current actress for Helen ever out for those meet-and-greets? I forget her name, but I've always wanted to meet her.

 

[Please Remove]

When there is a post show the Helen doesn't go out to the meet-and-greet. But when there isn't, each one goes out.

I have one question I have been dying to ask... is the tank heated?? In winter they wear wet suits, but I imagine that even in a heated tank having to get out and climb those towers must be so cold... so is the tank heated?

Nope, it's not. In winter they wear long sleeved wetsuits and extra layers where they can, because it is freezing in there.

I read online that during the remaining seasons, they put on as many layers as desired for personal preference since the tank isn't heated. If you look at it, though, it'd be quite odd to have heated water. A lot of the water ends up flying onto the audience, and I don't think they'd be happy if warm water was splashed all over them on a hot day.

No obviously in summer there is no need... I was talking in winter

 

[William]

I know, I just mean in general. It'd be smarter to heat the water in the colder seasons, though.

Heated water would steam. That would look odd. There is a hot tub back stage that they use before, after and even during shows. Fill up the wetsuit with hot water and it sure helps.
