broken down
8:52
dang that's one thing about these
8:54
drive-throughs you got to give
8:56
gotta give the people running them
8:57
credit they have a lot of obstacles to
8:59
overcome
9:00
that's going to be i hope he gets his
9:01
car started maybe the demogorgon could
9:04
give him a jump
9:05
oh that's true turning the corner here
9:07
what is that thing
9:09
it's like this is like the haunts we're
9:12
still going up
9:12
yeah we look like we're going to space
9:15
right now
9:17
yeah it's like some sort of uh tunnel
9:20
we're entering
9:21
oh look at the high voltage oh nice
9:24
voltage that could jump that guy's car
9:27
careful here katie oh my gosh
9:30
here we go we're in gaucho's edge battle
9:33
star galactica lake
9:34
oh what are these we're in the upside
9:37
down you guys
9:38
turn the upside down you could see the
9:40
particles
9:41
literally in the upside down
9:44
there's even fault like all those like
9:47
oh this is cool
9:48
we are inside the upside down got the
9:51
screens
9:51
there's all the vines we got oh yeah
9:53
this is cool i thought that was
9:55
dipped from toontown but it's not dipped
9:59
it's the stranger things equipment this
10:01
is cool wow this is really neat
10:03
and this is just in a parking garage
10:04
yeah look at all the stuff's floating
10:07
around
10:07
we're on level 12. look level 12. we
10:09
were on a level 11.
10:11
we were on level 11. if that's according
10:19
this is cool we are inside the upside
10:19
down
10:20
now they don't call this a drive-through
10:21
they call this a drive into that is the
10:23
technical name of it
10:25
here you can see through there that the
10:26
sun is going down
10:28
okay that's neat and they have the look
10:31
at the vines
10:32
everywhere little flakes almost looks
10:34
like snow almost
10:35
yeah it's kind of like catching oh
10:37
that's so cool
10:38
and there's just a cavalcade of cars in
10:40
here winding all through
10:42
because the air in the upside down is
10:43
like it's got those hard to breathe it's
10:45
got those spreckels in it that weird
10:48
spread that's why they want the windows
10:50
up that's another reason they want the
10:52
windows up not just for the chemicals
10:53
for the
10:54
for the actual oh what was that i like
10:57
that they actually
10:59
like you can see the outside and it like
11:01
blowing in yeah that's pretty cool
11:02
don't run into the barriers he's saying
11:04
there's a lot of haze a lot of fog
11:07
this is a good driver's test by the way
11:09
oh this is
11:10
getting foggier yeah we got a bit of a
11:12
marine layer getting a little thicker
11:14
through here it's almost it's very hard
11:15
to see
11:17
the fog's getting thicker and leon's
11:20
getting larger
11:25
now this gentleman has just told us to
11:25
turn our lights off you have to turn the
11:26
car off we just have to turn
11:28
the lights off just to give it the
11:29
proper ambiance so i'm thinking another
11:31
show element will be happening
11:34
in here okay they're giving us some
11:37
information
11:39
all lights off they already informed us
11:40
that but they're repeating it over the
11:42
radio signal
11:46
i don't even know what's going on right
11:46
now like the screen showing us
11:54
who is that okay i can see him kind of
11:54
wandering over there between those two
11:56
vehicles
11:57
kind of shrouded in the darkness there's
12:00
something happening over here too
12:01
who's that oh my gosh something there's
12:03
a lot of hecticness
12:05
he's just saying the move yeah this is
12:08
like i don't even know what's happening
12:10

12:30
as we kind of kind of cruise through
12:32
they said to find the source
12:34
we're going to find the source now look
12:36
at the vines up there
12:37
all stretching through like you see the
12:38
particles in there oh there they are
12:40

17:04
better than i expected it yeah
17:06

17:08
van there
17:10
all right i think that's it a lot of
17:11
good set dressing too look at all that
17:13
little like the lighting and the haze

yeah souvenirs and photo op it says oh
17:40
maybe if you did the vip and so the
17:42
price per car was i think it was 120
17:44
so really we paid about 40 each if you
17:46
total it all but we had another person
17:48
in the car even 30 dollars each
17:50
i think it's worth it in comparison to
17:52
some of the other stuff we did
17:53
during hot season that was about the
17:54
same price and shorter we can now get
17:57
out of the vehicle

18:06
don't know how much that shirt is
18:13
a little like the little baseball caps
18:13
trucker caps and a pair of dice
18:17
that's pretty good
18:37
it was much better than i expected it
18:37
that it was going to be yeah
