King Kong is a ride specially designed for families and only available for theme parks. The ride has been developed and sold by the Bremen company Huss Park Attractions since 2009 .
Emergence
The driving concept takes its influence from the world-famous film King Kong of the same name . The animatronics and theming of the ride was developed in cooperation with the company HEIMO animated attractions Mordelt GmbH & Co.KG. (now Heimotion GmbH) from Jagsthausen realized. The first facility was opened in 2009 in the Belgian amusement park Bobbejaanland .
Driving style
The passengers take a seat in a tram-like gondola that can accommodate up to 24 people. As soon as the journey begins, King Kong holds the gondola in his hands and lifts it up to a height of over 12 meters, then begins to shake it. He exhales smoke, makes noises and his eyes glow red. Finally, he lowers the gondola back to the ground so that the passengers can get out again.
