Pass Me the Barf Bag
There are three occasions in the modern world when
a sick bag may be necessary.
1. When you're on an aeroplane
2. When you're riding one of the latest roller coasters
at a fantastic theme park
3. When you're on an aeroplane watching someone actually
get paid to ride the latest roller coasters at a fantastic
theme park.
Gareth at Universal Studios
Yup, it's a tough job, but someone's got to do
it. Gareth has just returned from filming at the flashy theme parks of Orlando,
Florida.
The two hour programme, in which he reviews two adjoining theme parks, Universal Studios Orlando and "Islands of Adventure", will be shown on BLAST, one of the TV channels exclusive to passengers on Virgin Atlantic flights.
Still, you might be relieved to know it wasn't all fun, fun, fun. But it was all sun, sun, sun. Florida suffered a heat wave, and as temperatures soared to 96°F Gareth had to film for four consecutive trips on the all-new and already infamous catapulting roller coaster "THE INCREDIBLE HULK", after which he was unable to stand for an hour.
Stand by with YOUR barf bag and tune in to BLAST if you're flying Virgin Atlantic from July.
