The technology is B-A-N-A-N-A-S! It's insane to see these ride vehicles go back and forth between various roller coaster tracks just like in the Donkey Kong games-you know, the ones where you get Kong on a mine cart that he has to jump from broken rail to broken rail in order to complete the level. Here you're the monkey trusting Universal Studios with your life in a deeply immersive simulation of the game, jumping over tracks that from your point of view will be looking and feeling like you're definitely in danger.
If you're wondering how this is all possible, theme-park attractions progress insider Orlando Park Stop reported that Universal Creative patented this tech as a 'Boom Coaster,' where the ride vehicle will jump from those visible 'broken' tracks-which are really a fake-out in theme with the story-while actually operating on a stealthily hidden track below. And while that's all good and dandy for the most part, and we hope the Donkey Kong ride will be officially announced for Epic Universe too in Orlando (see Orlando Park Stop for more on that), it's still nerve-wracking. How can things not go wrong with the theme park's track record...
