Ever since I learned that Das Boot used a scale 1:1 model of the interior of a Type VII-C submarine, and that it could be rocked and shaken and have things start burning and water flood in and what the Heck not--
--I've been thinking: Wouldn't that thing be the greatest amusement park attraction of all time? Imagine being strapped up with elbow and knee pads and a helmet and being let into the "command centre" of the model, for then to have it "submerge" and be subjected to depth charges, pressure, pinging, fire, water gushing in from leaks, the works. All the special effects and rocking and what the Heck in one go. First the pinging, then near misses, then pinging, closer hits, and so on, everything getting more and more intense and the "damage" growing more and more serious.
It'd "pwn" every roller-coaster out there. Even the actors in the movie were really scared while the filming was going on and the interior did its worst. Imagine:o.
And don't tell me such an attraction really exists. That'd be too good to be true:p.
