It would be placed in their brand new second theme park Islands of Adventure. Meanwhile, Universal Studios Florida was looking to build their own version of Jurassic Park: The Ride. On August 12, 1996, Universal launched an online game, Jurassic Park – The Ride Online Adventure, to promote the ride. Steven Spielberg also attended the opening, but requested that he be let off of the attraction before the 85-foot (26 m) drop. Among the guests in attendance at the ride's grand opening celebration were film cast members Jeff Goldblum, Ariana Richards and Joseph Mazzello. Jurassic Park: The Ride opened to the public at Universal Studios Hollywood on June 21, 1996. Elements like the Tyrannosaurus rex chasing the boat, Two baby Raptors (novel) / Compsognathus (or Procompsognathus, film & novel) on a boat from an earlier scene, the pair of Dilophosaurus on the river bank, and the drop (ride) / waterfall (novel), were used on the ride. The ride was inspired by a line of scenes from Michael Crichton's 1990 novel when Alan Grant, Lex Murphy, and Tim Murphy try to get back to the visitor center on an inflatable boat. A river rapids ride version, Jurassic Park Rapids Adventure, opened at Universal Studios Singapore in 2010. Duplicates of the ride have since been built at Universal's Islands of Adventure and Universal Studios Japan as Jurassic Park River Adventure. The ride was researched and built as the film was still in production and opened at Universal Studios Hollywood on June 21, 1996.
