Universal Studios Orlando - Earthquake: The Big One

Based on the film, this attraction starts off with a demonstration on how special effects were used in the movie to create the effect of a massive earthquake.  This includes a fascinating look at the original models used in the film.  Audience volunteers also help during a sequence that is filmed against a blue screen background, which is later mixed with some special effects to further demonstrate the craft.

Eventually, you board the BART (Bay Area Rapid Transit - a subway) that is supposed to run from Oakland to San Francisco.  Once on board the tram, the earthquake starts to hit. 

It is a very well done attraction, that proved a little too intense for some friends of mine from California, who have experienced the real deal.  It's something to keep in mind, but the attraction is not to be missed.
