Fire at USH..... - Page 4

As bad as this looks at least it happened on a calm day (judging from the smoke cloud). If the winds had been strong there is no telling how bad this could have been.

Is the park open today? Have the canceled the entire tram tour or just routed around the fire area?

The park did not open today, as of now, it's still scheduled to be open tomorrow

I'm with Flippy in morbidly hoping they've got footage of Kong going down in flames. Preferably while in motion. I mean, if he's going to go down, it should at least be in a literal blaze of glory. He deserves that.

Ride monitoring / Security cameras perhaps? Even if the attraction was closed I would expect there is some type of video surveillance of the grounds. Probably some sort of live feed directly into the video vault for safe keeping.

That's what I'm hoping for. Even grainy black and white slow frame rate footage would be awesome, if not somehow even more dramatic. I'd be surprised if they weren't recording security footage (Matt?), but whether they'd let it be seen is another question.

If it exists, hopefully it goes back to a central monitoring station and not a recorder somewhere in the show building....

Here's a video of Universal's fire. There were explosions. A friend of mine saw several in the early morning.
