Baccckk baccck over the falls!

@BobsledRider it's "nor shall you be the last"

[hco4evababy]

the polar bear, three headed monster, and the tree stump with eyes were pretty creepy

[hogbackmtn]

I believe that the ride vehicles, the boats, have changed since these dragon-headed ones, right?

[KathRou27]

This ride scared the shit out of me when I went on it. 

[wickedfeylady]

WHO ELSE WAS SCARED OF THOSE TROLLS AND THAT DAMN TREE STUMP THING WITH THE EYES?

[kcoture121]

why is it black in white?

[magicalthemeparks]

@kcoture121 The technology I use to videotape this, was a Sony mini DV camcorder with night vision technology. In low light conditions, you lose color to help see everything.

[kcoture121]

why is it in black and white?

[NanakoLuv]

It's okay, the ride is hidden xD

[Cooopie123]

i loved this ride!!

[dakotasapphire]

maelstrom- a whirlpool of great strength most often found in norway

..........

and thats the real thing

[musicallovin293]

not gonna lie, this ride made me cry the whole time hahah, too creepy.

[ztslovebird]

My sister and my grandfather used to go on this ride every year together!

[stetsoncrew12]

i love this ride i am addicted to it

[crazysingingchick]

Giant Troll Head = My Shorts Soiled

[skaterboirocker]

does anyone know the name of the song played during the troll switching u foward?

[sillychildhood]

That was probably the worst ride there.

[54spiritedwill54]

Hands down the best ride at Epcot. Those trolls are bad ass!

[MLeyden91]

I was at Epcot last month, and I didn't get to ride this - the queue was 45 minutes long.

After seeing this, I am glad I gave it a miss, it looks rubbish!

[MahoganyQT]

I just went on this ride last weekend. Glad I had a fastpass because it was really dissapointing.

[magicalthemeparks]

its in Norway at Epcot. When making the the turn into the little Village area at Norway, its all the way in the back with a big sign over it. its to the right of the waterfalls.

[Jago972936]

Does This Ride Have A Fall

[magicalthemeparks]

yes it does, not a bad one, like on the level of Pirates. There is a point where they tell you to go back, back over the falls, but you dont.

Bruce

[twitchy38812]

this rides kinda ghetto but still good times

[rideweenie200]

I love quoting this ride all the time.

weird how theres no hidden mickeys inside of it like most rides though...

[MissDisneyWorld]

there actually is one on one of the viking guys at the beginning in the line thing. (i can't remember how to spell it. :))

[rideweenie200]

oh yeah! in the mural at the beginning, one of them is wearing mickey ears! As far as i know, there are none on the actual ride, but there is another in the church walk through exhibit on one of the mannequins.

[twitchy38812]

there is..when you get into the boat with all the viking people painted on the wall, there's one in the detail of the hat

[maryiml]

This Is Awsome!!

[Stravinktyklow]

No, It is A Big Drop, They even gave the warning you may get wet outside the Ride. By The Way, if you look at A Book Called Norway: Home Of The Trolls, you'll see many stories and paintings of Trolls & Troll Country

[Stravinktyklow]

Those are Trolls you Idiot, The Trolls From Mythology, those exact same ones. You are Norwegian? Well, then you will know that Trolls in The Original Mythology had the power to cast spells and also infested areas like swamps & Marshes & Countries. & No, There really aren't any drops in this ride & it's just as big and exciting as the Pirates Of The Caribbean Ride & also to the point of Splash Mountain. You guys are all wrong they did give warnings you will get wet. You guys are very very wrong .

[magicalthemeparks]

It depends on how you define a 'drop'. There is no four story drop like in splash mtn, but it is a small drop like in pirates.

[kailyprower]

they called that... trolls...

Those are not the trolls I learned about when I was little. (I am Norwegian!)

[Vogtalicious]

What's sad is that my room mates in Copenhagen worked at this ride (yes, they were Norwegian) and they used to make fun of it all the time!

[YellowMellowJello]

that looks like an amazing ride :)

[Secret2Go]

it is...kinda lame though. i used to be scared not anymore..

[Fizzyprincess]

hey, wtf is wit that X thing? at like 1:06 it shows an X on the building, and i dont remember if thats how it is because i went for thanks giving. can u guys help me out? thx!

[Ahotbabi234]

what is this ride? im going again in about 7 days. and my younger sister wants me 2 check out the rides, cause she hates rides with bigg drops..

[magicalthemeparks]

this is the ride in Epcot's pavilion Norway. There is a drop involved.

[Ahotbabi234]

like a big one?

[magicalthemeparks]

no, I wouldnt say a big one, one on the level of Pirates, not Splash. be warned, at one point, you are going backwards, and it may seem to be going over a water fall, but you dont.

[Ahotbabi234]

[MonoNak]

best WDW theme park ever

i would love visit Norway

[BobsledRider]

Funny, this movie looks exactly like your 2005 Maelstrom video, exact same camera movements and everything. Are you sure this movie is from 1992? They didn't start having the "please watch your children" spiel until recently.

[HPFreak4Life1708]

this ride is actually creepy at some points

[BobsledRider]

I love Malström! I just wish it was a little longer. I love the lift part with the haunting narration, "You are not the first to pass this way...now shall you be the last."

[disintegrator]

Cool ride..Thought it would be better though!

[roxfanatic]

Out of sheer luck we got picked out of the crowd to be "honorary vikings" and got to skip to the front of the line and get our own boat. It was sweet.

[wittmann]

Can't wait to ride maelstrom again :D

[fryeman2005]

good ride

[GingerTeeHM]

I dont even no that ride and I went to Diseny World...

[chillaxed007]

Same Here

[TamamaCandyLover]

@GingerTeeHM It's in Epcot that's why.

[MuscleShark28]

Hands down the best ride at Epcot. Those trolls are bad ass!

[landerhavenn]

for being recorded in 1992 this is very good quality video.  Really cool ride btw, ive rode it like 3 times.

[quikflow]

I been there in florida, Very unique ride, it goes backwards.

[zipperhead53]

"DISSAPEAR! DISSAPEAR! DISSAPEAR!" I love those trolls!

[sarabearmunkybabe]
