Well, uh, guess I'm here now.
Like I said, nothing, nothing would ever go wrong, you know?
I saw the T-Rex, I was like, you mad, bro?
I don't really know who that is, because I haven't read the books or seen...
Hey, yo, what is up, Drill Seekers?
Today, I am here at Universal Studios Hollywood with Nipadre.
And we're, it's both of, no, lies.
It's my first time here, his first time here in, uh, a while.
Yeah, so, so we're, uh, we're just a little busy.
But we're gonna basically ride all of the rides, try to see everything that we can see.
I'm super excited to watch the Waterworld show.
That's something that I have been anticipating for a while.
So, yeah, those are the things that I'm excited about.
I'm excited to just have a good day here and explore Universal Studios Hollywood.
Okay, so I got to point out real quick that we don't really know where we're going at all.
But we're going to start down with the lower lot, just because it seems like, uh,
seems like the lower lot has a lot shorter wait times right now.
Which is good.
My dad, wow.
Wow.
What you doing?
I have to say, one ride that is closed that is kind of unfortunate is the Simpsons ride.
We'll not be able to do it as it is closed for refurbishment.
R.I.P.
Does have, like, a really, really cool facade, though. I love that.
Fun fact, there is one main thing that sets this park apart from every other theme park that we've been to.
Bee Gees coming from the background.
Escalators.
Best ride right here.
Number one. Over the voyage.
You just brought up a good point.
And it's sunless.
It's trimless.
That's true.
And it looks almost Voyager.
Is that Voyager?
And after the long escalator ride, we have made it into Jurassic World.
I think the first ride of the day is going to be Jurassic World the Ride.
Didn't know this was Six Flags.
You know, Indominus Rex, you know, I've never seen the movies, so I'm assuming that everything goes really swimmingly with this guy, right?
Yeah?
Yeah.
Yeah, I mean, yeah, exactly.
Let's do this thing.
Let's get it.
Here we go.
Mosasaurus, apex predator of the deep.
You are clear for entry.
What?
Well, that's not good.
That's not very nice.
That's comforting.
Hey, what's up, guy?
Well, uh, oh, hi.
I think we're vibing.
Hi, dogs.
Hey, what's up, guy?
Can you, like, not kill us?
That would be, uh, preferable.
Listen to me. Do not panic.
Like I said, nothing, nothing would ever go wrong, you know?
Saw the T-Rex, I was like, you mad, bro?
Hey, how was the vibe?
It was good.
I liked that.
Good start to the day.
Oh, definitely, definitely, definitely.
With that, let's ride the mummy.
Let's do it.
Another ride where I'm like, you know,
I mean, nothing could go wrong here.
Not at all.
Yeah, exactly.
You mad, bro?
That was so, like, I was not expecting you to say that.
At all.
Well, five minutes.
Nice.
I will take that.
Let's get it.
High speed roller coaster.
Man, I can't, I don't think I can do those.
That's a whole different level.
I know.
After, after listening to the girl behind us,
I think I figured out the, uh, whole story of the mummy.
Okay?
Right?
So they were, they were just walking around,
they were hanging out.
Just came across this random, random, random thing.
It's like, oh, this, this seems kind of funny.
Right?
So they just walked in.
They, they, they had a key for some reason.
So they just put down a key.
So they just plopped the key in.
They turned a couple of dials.
And then this door opened.
It's mummy inside.
You know?
What's up?
Yeah.
Like, hey.
It's me.
And they went, oh.
It's you.
And then you ate him.
Yeah.
They were like, I thought you were dead.
Yeah, literally.
And then, uh, yeah.
That was, that was, uh, that was the 11-year-old's, uh,
on the mummy.
This, uh, this animation, because, like,
there's multiple shots of roller coasters
that are very clearly not the mummy.
Um, like, I think there's a shot of, like,
the Hulk in here.
Right?
Whenever it, like, launches out.
Um, so that's interesting.
There's, yeah, there's, like, some
Giovanola-type track in here.
Um, so I don't really know where that came from.
Like that.
Uh, you know.
It launched out.
That's definitely in the Incredible Hulk.
So I don't know, but, you know,
I guess they can do whatever they want.
Alright.
Let's get it, guys.
Hey, bro.
Yeah, they need a cleaning lady in here.
Yeah.
You know, it's interesting.
I feel like it was definitely,
like, it was a great, great ride.
Solid.
It was pretty good, but, um,
it was definitely a lot, like, shorter
than the one over in Orlando.
Yep.
With a lot less fire.
A lot less fire.
Which, honestly, is not a bad thing,
because I feel like California and fire
usually don't have the best history.
Bad for the environment.
Yeah.
Wildfires.
It's all good.
Yeah.
But, yeah.
Pretty good.
Really short, but really chill.
There was, like, a couple elements in there
that were different than the California,
uh, than the Florida one.
I don't remember really going backwards
that much in the Florida one.
I don't either.
Yeah, so.
That was nice.
That was a nice surprise.
Um.
Next up, Transformers.
Yeah.
They are.
Snoop Mommies.
Da da da da da.
It's the mother, do me, mama me.
Alrighty.
Next up.
Oh, yeah.
By the way.
Opening a new world.
Yes.
Uh-huh.
2023.
I'll be back.
I'll be in college.
Hopefully around here.
Yeah.
Let's do it.
It's interesting.
It says 25-minute wait, but there's
so far, the least amount of people
entering with us.
Versus the other guys.
What's up, guys?
Oh, guys.
Seems chill.
Decepticons.
Yeah, literally there's like no one here.
I don't know what it means by 25 minutes,
but okay, go on.
Right.
I and I.
Hey, yo, calm down.
You're going to accidentally press an E stop.
Dispatching.
Why does this kind of look like Boomerang's panel?
Not that much, but enough.
Just enough.
That I feel really confident, you know?
I think we're going to get it.
Yeah, but it's alright.
I still believe in us.
We got it.
So basically what he just said
is he was like, yo,
so this guy doesn't know what he's doing
and you guys don't either, so
we'll see.
Yeah, exactly.
Something I have to say
is that
attractions and themes
like the people who make the
stories for these rides have learned
is that they
in the past
they've really like thrown people into the
stories like really, really quickly.
You know, already kind of assuming
that this thing is happening
versus on newer attractions
seems like they kind of ease you into it a little bit.
They're like, alright, you know?
Like VelociCoaster
Hagrid's
was kind of like that.
Stuff like that, they kind of ease you
into it a little bit more.
Like, alright, you know, this is why
you're here.
Here they're just like,
alright, we gotta get out. And we're like, where are we?
It doesn't matter.
It doesn't matter, we just gotta go.
Okay.
Alright, let's get it. I love their outfits.
It's great.
Alright, what's the question?
Here's the question.
Transformers? Okay.
Or Star Wars?
Oh, like, um...
Wait, Rise of the Resistance?
Oh, Rise of the Resistance. Easy.
Alright.
Now, I think the better
comparison is
Transformers
or Justice League.
Okay. Right?
Because it's the same ride system.
Yeah. Right?
I say Transformers.
I feel like they
were more immersive
and, like, I feel like it was longer
than Justice League. I agree.
Which I appreciated.
So, yeah.
We waited about five minutes
for Jurassic World. Oh, just
man.
Gotta switch screens right as
I start to film it. Let's see how it is.
But it's a 45
minute wait for
this guy now.
And it was about... Oh, there you go.
It was literally five whenever we
rode it. Transformers
probably more like 10,
15, maybe.
Mummy was probably about
10 whenever we got on it.
So, because
all of the wait times seem a little bit longer,
I'm gonna
hope that this is the same.
Hopefully it'll
actually be shorter
than it shows over here, but
we will see for ourselves.
Either way, I mean, we have
plenty of time, so
don't think it's the worst
thing ever.
But let's do this thing.
Yeah, good thing about being
6'1 is you can just...
Let me show y'all how it's done. Ready?
There you go.
Oh, I almost fell on that one.
There we go.
And that right there
is our leg day.
That's how you get your quads working.
Exactly. Just buy a season pass here,
go up the stairs, and
you're good. Got thunder thighs.
Note to self, don't skip
leg day. Literally.
What?
Dr. Mix.
Fit it in, we can take
it out.
Most famous thing here.
The Universal
Studio Tour.
Let's get it.
Hey, Dad.
Just when you thought
you could get away from them.
Escalator.
You can't get away from them.
Can't do it, they're everywhere.
For anyone who
complains that they wait in a really long line
and the ride is short,
maybe come here.
I mean,
gonna be waiting in maybe 25,
30 minutes of a line
for a 60 minute tour.
I'm excited for this.
Yeah, so that's
the show building for
Forbidden Journey.
That's how huge the ride is.
Apparently it's one of the
five star attractions.
So, there you go.
That's also why it has the longest wait.
There you go.
Definitely not gonna
film the whole thing.
There are a lot of, it's gonna be a long
time and I don't want my arm
to get tired or my phone to run out of battery.
But, I will.
I've seen videos of this tour
so I kinda know the gist of it.
Anything that's interesting, I'll make sure
to start to pull out my camera
so that I can film it.
Woody Woodpecker.
I mean, go off I guess.
There you go.
Back to the future.
Here we go.
Oh man, the bird eye!
Daddy Kong.
I was gonna say,
he slobbered all over us.
Man.
Like, say it,
don't spray it, bud.
Everything on the outside is actually made out of a lightweight
wood material. A lot easier to move around
on set. A lot easier to blow up.
A lot easier to blow up.
Glad it missed me.
Starting.
Yep.
Vacation to
animity art.
Hey bud.
What's up, guy?
When the shark
is about as reliable as Top Thrill Dragster,
you know you've got a problem.
Hey.
Hey bud.
Aw, he's so romantic.
Look at the way he's carrying her.
Hey Norman.
Hey buddy. We didn't see anything, Norman.
So, you know, we got a knife, huh?
Okay, Norman, we'll get out of here.
Good luck, car three. Car four?
You got no chance.
Oh no, Norman.
Stay. Stay.
Yeah.
That's unfortunate.
What's up, guy?
That's mean.
Stop.
What did you think?
Here, let me get on this side.
Not straighten my arm.
It's good? Yeah.
No, I really enjoyed it.
Glad they kept Rita Beaver in there
for the old school kids. Yes.
Definitely. No, everything
was really, really good.
I really liked that. Very, very much
enjoyed it. Yeah.
That was a really good film.
Definitely like, you know,
so far, highlight of our day.
Definitely.
That was really, really cool.
I'm excited for
I'm still really excited
for Waterworld.
Something that I'm really
anticipating, so that'll be
pretty cool.
But in the meantime, we got
a couple more rides to do.
Yeah. Chicken.
I mean,
but look at that, though.
Soon, I'm not gonna
be able to fit an Iron Rattler.
Hey, you wanna get a bucket of water?
Put it on your head. Hey, I'll do it.
I got you.
There you go. Your turn.
Boo.
Nice shot.
Hi, I'm Tiger Woods.
You actually need these people.
When I kill your friend,
you don't have a leg
to stand on.
Birth of a new nation.
Your island is my destiny.
Hey, chicken.
Totally called that.
I do not remember seeing that.
I remember seeing that.
The bad guy falls.
No, you're right.
I didn't say I didn't like it.
As I said, I've seen it before.
I don't remember it at all.
I do not remember seeing it at all.
I thought you wanted to be a stuntman because of this show.
Yeah, I did.
But I did because
of the show
when I watched it on YouTube.
As opposed to live.
Which I don't remember.
So, happy birthday to you, too!
She's like one of my
favorites.
Sounds a little more Jersey than Brooklyn, but I'll roll with it.
Same thing.
Don't say that in Brooklyn.
I know.
Looks like a little bit more than
30 something minutes,
but it's alright.
We made it!
Well, if the emperor needs that delivery,
then we'll make sure he gets it.
Right, guys?
But we may not all survive.
Okay.
Ends up ahead.
Let me see it.
Alrighty. I'm thinking that we start walking
over to this McCormick.
Alright, sweet.
This seems about right.
You know, Dad,
I feel like
I just have a sneaky suspicion
that, like,
that guy's hat
isn't really doing much.
Do you know?
If it rains,
he'll be ahead of the game.
In water collection.
Exactly.
Let's shoot.
It's California, man. You never know.
Just a personal
walking rain barrel.
Let's shoot.
Doesn't need to buy the expensive water bottles.
Just needs to
somehow find a way to
transfer the water from the back of his head
to the front of his head.
Also, if you understand the aerodynamics
and the intensity
of this ride that we're standing in line
for an hour for,
that coil on the back of his head
that acts as a brim will actually
keep him rooted in his seat.
I got you. Definitely.
So he won't fly out.
Trying to stand is a danger on this ride.
He's got it figured out.
Yeah, exactly.
Well, that
was quite a while.
But we are
now finally about to
head inside.
Yay.
My dad said
that he either needs a nap or some sugar.
And
well, this is the only thing
available.
Okay.
The over-under is four pounds.
Looks like about
maybe two and a half-ish.
You win.
Alright, guys.
I'm going to reveal something about myself.
Promise me
you won't unsubscribe, okay?
Promise me.
I love candy corn.
I know.
Candy corn is probably one of my favorite candies.
What?
Bro, literally?
It's
Zoom Jets with three
wait, three?
Is there four operators?
Bro, that's
insane. It's Zoom Jets
with four operators.
Just kidding, man.
We should get a picture. Let's do this.
Oh, man. This is happening.
Can you see me?
Am I
in the picture?
Oh, thank goodness.
Oh, yeah, girl.
Get your game on.
Hey.
Probably one of the most Instagrammable
things.
Hey, thanks.
Man, where's Hagrid's?
Wow.
Beautiful.
I just want to know why there's a 65
minute wait
for this thing.
Well, this seems interesting.
Alrighty, guys. Since we've done
everything except for Forbidden Journey,
which we're going to do a little bit later,
I am going
to go into battery
conservation mode
and not really film that much
since they'll basically just be a ton of the same
thing unless something
cool happens. Maybe I'll film
snippets here and there, but
overall, we'll probably just
see a whole bunch of random clips of
random things until we ride
that guy over there.
Gotta get the nice
new perspective.
It's my favorite scene.
Couldn't see it last time.
Who trained that guy?
Shut up!
Chuck,
fix this thing. She's getting away.
Flash.
We looked on the screen
as we were coming out of Waterworld
just checking and seeing how
the wait times
and stuff, and Forbidden Journey had
a 45 minute wait, which
has been the absolute lowest
that it's been all day.
Whenever we got here,
it was already at 60
or something like that, and it's just
been going up. Got to 150
at some point,
so it being at a 45 minute
wait is like, oh,
gotta go.
And here we go.
Oh yeah.
Going right into Hogwarts.
I have to say, I'm not a big
Harry Potter guy.
I don't really know that much about
Harry Potter, so
I'm not really going to be commenting on stuff.
I'll just kind of be looking around.
Don't want to get something wrong and then all my Harry Potter
buffs in the comments
are like, oh my god.
As someone trying to get
into engineering with themed entertainment,
the forced perspective is really
cool on this.
Well, hello.
Oh, that's true.
He got the thunder thighs.
Hey, man.
I don't think, uh,
I don't think you're supposed to move, bro.
That guy seems chill.
I don't really
know who that is, because I haven't
read the books.
Isn't that Professor Dusseldorf or whatever?
Dusseldorf?
Yes. Yes, everyone.
That guy, his name is
Professor Dusseldorf.
Now, okay.
Allegedly.
Okay, now, I don't even know
what his name is. I don't know what his name
is, but I'm 100%
sure that his name is
not Professor Dusseldorf.
Just trying to help.
Come on.
Okay, I'm dying, because he said
my name is
Professor Dumbledore.
And he said, that was close.
Dusseldorf.
And Dumbledore.
Give me partial credit.
Okay, you get
maybe
a solid 60%.
You get
like a 900.
There's no F
in it, though.
There's no F.
Dumbledore.
The F is silent.
100%.
Honestly, I had no idea what we were getting
into.
Guess we'll just figure it out.
And that was really
cool. Okay, I gotta
say, honestly, because I
had no idea what. First off,
like, just seeing
the arms
that were controlling the ride
was so cool to me,
because I don't think I've ever
seen any other ride system
even kind of. That's super
super cool. So that was the
first thing that really caught my attention
and was like, whoa, that's super
cool.
But because of that,
how close you were to everything,
you know, like everything was right
in your face. And that's another
thing that I honestly don't think that
a lot of other rides offer,
is just being like right
up in everything's face.
That was really cool as well.
Why they got a statue
of a piece of poop.
So,
I was gonna say, I think it's a
hat. I was
gonna go with maybe a
deformed rock with the
unicorn horn.
Look at that.
Wow.
Beautiful.
Alright, let's do it.
Alrighty guys,
with that, that is it. Here from
Universal Studios Hollywood.
Today was a super super fun day.
Got to ride some rides that were
expected, some rides that were unexpected,
including Forbidden Journey. Super
happy with
our rides on that. We ended up riding it
three times. In the middle of
our second run, actually, we got
a little bit of a temporary delay. Stuck in
an awkward position, which was
kind of funny. But
overall, an amazing day.
Waterworld, great as
expected.
Again, overall
a great day. Highly recommend this park.
Anyways, with that, I will see
you guys all next time.
Peace.
Bye.
