Escape From Pompeii Boat Ride at Busch Gardens in Williamsburg. I didn't dress this one up - this was my second ever theme park ride, so I felt it should be preserved. Thank you Jeff Tiedemann for helping me relive the memory.

  • I used to operate this opening year. We moved about 10 years ago. What happened to the falling statue at the end before the drop?

  • @dusttodustdude1983 It's still there, if you look at about 1:17 and look at the left hand side of the video you'll see the shadow of the statue, the statue never falls at the same time anymore, I wonder if it's due to faulty sensors, but the past two summers I went, we rode twice each visit, the statue fell "on top" of us, while we were in the exploding ceiling room, after we had passed it, and it was already down once as well by the time we rounded the corner into the exploding ceiling room.

  • isnt this the music from pirates of the carribean?

  • @Enivekdax17 I've since found one of them (Montagues and Capulets by Prokofiev--one of the songs outside); however, for the one that plays inside I'm still at a loss.

  • @ciceronx i wish i knew. i like the music when u get inside the building

  • Just 2 days ago, I was riding in the front seat with my family. Then, just before the drop... the boat stopped and an announcement came over the intercom saying that the ride was experiancing technical difficulties. 30 minutes later, they sent someone up the magical stairwell to fetch us. I was starting to think I'd have to jump out and turn the drop into a slide before he came!

  • i love Busch Garden!

  • I have been searching the Interwebs for years trying to find out the names of the ride's songs (inside AND outside).

    Anyone have any idea, short of me going down and asking the operator myself?
