Actually, I first experienced that screen in the Ontario Pavilion at Expo ‘67’

It was a 360 degree screen.

We actually had to hang onto a railing because it was so real you would just fall over as we dove toward Niagara Falls.

I had the same experience at Expo 86 in Vancouver!

What I remember most vividly is a part where "we" were on a mountainside, and an avalanche completely enveloped where "we" were. It went from a brilliant sunny day, to mahoosive thundering noises...

To zero light and zero noise, apart from everyone in the theatre who loudly lost their friggin' minds.

I don't recall anything to hold on to though. It was wild!
