1991 - January 2012

The Jaws attraction at Universal Orlando is rumoured to be closing in January 2012, to possibly make room for an expansion of the wildly popular Wizarding World of Harry Potter.

Disney's Jungle Cruise with teeth, join the skippers under Captain Jake of Amity Boat Tours - the shark's dead, right? - as we visit some of the sites made famous by Steven Spielberg's 1975 classic JAWS.

Taking it's cue from the Jaws attraction which is part of the Studio Tour tram ride at Universal Studios Hollywood, this was one of the opening attractions at Universal Studios Florida in 1990, and was initially plagued by technical problems. It was redesigned between 1991 and 1993, and reopened with new ride mechanisms in 1994.
