Nickelodeon’s number one character, SpongeBob SquarePants has just launched his own ‘Australian first’ ride at Dreamworld’s Nick Central.
‘SpongeBob FlyPants’ will plunge guests into an imaginary deep sea world where they can soar and spin through the fantasy ‘Jellyfish Fields’ with the world’s number one cartoon character and his friendly neighbourhood invertebrates.
Located fifty miles south of Bikini Bottom deep in the Pacific Ocean, Jellyfish Fields is home to millions of invertebrates whose ‘majestic command of the sky’ captivated Spongebob in the cartoon episode titled, The Sponge Who Could Fly. Desperately wanting to join them, television’s number one sponge invented a series of flying machines including a banana lounge motored by helium balloons; each proved a monumental flop.
It wasn’t until some friendly jellyfish squished beneath SpongeBob and lifted him up, that he first took to the watery skies. In SpongeBob’s nasally terms, “If you want to fly, all you need is friendships.”
The SpongeBob FlyPants ride is modelled on the visuals of the television episode. Guests lie flat on their stomachs – a first for Australia - and weightlessly weave around a larger-than-life SpongeBob as he takes flight aboard a giant wild jellyfish. Perfect for the whole family, SpongeBob FlyPants has the capacity for 24 people, with two guests per carriage taking to the sky at a super fun speed for everyone.
No need to pack your snorkel, just bring your wild imagination when you dive into the colourful whirling world of Jellyfish Fields and the new ‘SpongeBob Flypants’ ride.
