Tch, you can be so bitter at times. :)
I don't think his kids were scared at all. They all seemed to think it was
great that the thing had broken down and they got to see "behind the scenes"
(!). I think the most valuable lesson we can learn here is we shouldn't
feel too bad if things go wrong from time to time, because it gives the
audience a new experience that they seem to enjoy.
As for the camera.... It's a tourist. They want to bring their camera and
film everything. Besides, it's probably the only moment of fame the "cast"
get.
Tourist youtube footage is also a very useful feedback or idea tool.
OK, next clip. When the Indiana Jones ride gets stopped, safety rails rise
up between the walkway and attraction. They sound hydraulic with end
position detected by a pressure switch, but why is there also a pneumatic
hiss when they reach their final position? Is it a pneumatically powered
locking mechanism?
