Port Aventura is home to a very unique collection of rides, one of which is Furius Baco; and Intamin Wing Walker.  The coaster has trains in a fashion that puts riders over the side of the track and with their feet dangling below.  Furius Baco is currently the only one of it’s kind in the entire world.

Discovery Channel created a 6 minute video showcasing the Spanish ride and it’s revolutionary technology.  Not only does the short documentary highlight the technical aspects, but it also features some great POV footage of the ride.  Discovery Channel also gained access to some great vantage points.

Any theme park geek will be entertained by this video so check it out!

Yesterday was the official opening of Universal Studios Sinagpore.  The park welcomed a large crowd as they lined the walk ways excited to experience all the park has to offer.  Finally, after years of planning and construction, the park can finally let in it’s first guests.

The opening ceremony featured 18 dancing lions, Betty Boop, Frankenstein, and plenty of guests.  Guests were allowed in starting around 8:30 and played in the park all day until the night’s grand finale with fireworks on Lake Hollywood.

While I do not want to reveal any spoilers, the ride is not exactly going to meet the demands of hard core thrill seekers expecting the end all ride.  However, it certainly looks like the coaster is going to be a hit with families.  Check out the video below.
