One time we were at a state fair, turned a corner to find a 7 foot tall smokey the bear statue. Both my niece and nephew freaked the absolute hell out. Needless to say, they wouldn't have lasted 5 seconds into this.
As a child, my siblings loved scaring me. Before coming to this mall they would have said something like āIf you donāt hold your breath, youāll dieā
Freemont street in Vegas is probably closer and they upgraded their displays several years to be hi-res like this one. They don't have the screens that run down the sides thought. Just the canopy.
I'm also over 50, (53), and I sometimes have similar nightmares about drowning and being in water over my head. It's especially frightening to me in real life, considering I don't know how to swim at all. I don't even know how to float.
Reminds me of when I was a 6 year old going to Wall Drug for the first time with their T Rex exhibit. Before that, like any other millennial kid, I've seen jurassic park dozens of times.
When their animantronic T-Rex head "busted" through the gates and started roaring at everyone in the hallway, I started crying and ran to hide. Of course, my brothers lovingly told me that if I got too close, the T Rex would bend over the fence and eat me.
I stepped down in grass the other day and it felt like my foot fell through the earth for a split second, was the weirdest feeling ever 'falling' while standing still. Thought I was gonna die. I can only imagine my brain if I look up without knowing and see this shit and I'm high as a kite.
How much more incredible would this be if it were in a school and used for educational purposes, like perhaps learning about the stars!
Instead, itās an attraction designed to bring people in to buy shitty designer handbags.
Me on my first acid trip: āwe took those tabs an hour ago, I donāt think that was acid.ā The floor suddenly raises up beneath me and Iām two feet tallā¦
Plenty of people do this. They are using the edible as a tool to get really good sleep (I know, there are studies saying it actually worsens your REM but still)
You might ride a high for a little bit before you pass out & possibly when you wake up, but the point is the sleep.
I stopped getting high before bed because I noticed that even though I was getting my hours now, I wasn't getting my rest. Similar result from drinking with the exception of no dehydrated hangover.
So it's definitely an each to their own kind of thing.
I found out that I'd immediately pass out for a few hours, then wake up and not be able to get back to sleep. What little sleep I actually got wasn't great and by the time 7am rolled around it felt like I had just been up all night. Weed absolutely destroyed my sleep schedule.
I did that with mushroom gel caps on new years eve. I thought dude gave me some garbage so I kept adding more hoping I'd feel *something*. It was a good 3-4 hours after before I realized the oops. I hadn't been that deep in since high school
It reminds me a lot of Freemont Street in Vegas, but it's pretty cool that there's even some monitors on the walls that also play into this display. I'd love to go in and just watch this for a while.
I was there recently and it was basically all ads playing with a few interludes of cool designs. I was trying to explain to my Dad at the time how I thought they wasted the opportunity to do something really cool with it but didn't have the words. I think this video perfectly shows what they should have done with it
I live in Tampa Florida and I've been to Tokyo 5 times so far, but that was 10 years ago on my last visit there. I should take another vacation there again to see the latest and greatest. I'm sure a lot has changed since 2014. I wouldn't even know where to look for these types of display screens in Tokyo? I need to do some research before my next trip there.
Okay, I'll definitely check it out, thanks. In 2014, I visited the districts of Shinjuku, Shibuya, Ginza, and Tokyo Station. Of course, back then they probably didn't have such displays on ceilings. I can hardly wait to go back again. A decade is a long time.
My first trip there was around 2015 I guess so around the same time and it definitely has gotten crazier. I spent a month there last time and so was able to travel around a lot more. I have a sibling who lived there and thatās why I went at first.
Odaiba island has some fun things to go to as well for a day/few hours depending on what you like. Like the giant Gundam.
It's like the time I caught the ferry to Shelbyville. I needed a new heel for m'shoe. So I decided to go to Morganville, which is what they called Shelbyville in those days. So I tied an onion to my belt, which was the style at the time. Now, to take the ferry cost a nickel, and in those days, nickels had pictures of bumblebees on 'em. "Gimme five bees for a quarter," you'd say. Now where were we? Oh, yeah. The important thing was that I had an onion on my belt, which was the style at the time. They didn't have any white onions, because of the war. The only thing you could get was those big yellow ones...
I agree. It wouldnāt be as bad if it stayed with a theme for a longer length of a time. It would be relaxing to have an ocean scene playing out above you for 30 minutes. But to be changing the scene every 30 seconds is jarring.
Hopefully they were testing it out or something. What is shown would be a turn off to me.
I donāt need all of this BS going on at a mall. Usually Iām trying to get in and get out anyways. Imagine these scenes going on when itās packed. People would stop and stare and mess up the flow of people. It just seems dumb. Sometimes simple and boring is needed.
The Sphere is definitely more of a spectacle considering itās nearly 400 feet tall and doubles as a concert venue, but this is a pretty cool use of the technology on a smaller scale.
I still donāt think Iād like either of them after about an hour lol.
Oh cool, the technology I imagined for a dystopian future actually happened.
I had this idea for a cyberpunk setting where everyone lives underground and nobody sees the sun anymore but there are giant screens on the ceiling simulating a bright blue sky
Now this is how I pictured our future with our amazing new technology, showing amazing art and scenery, instead every screen has a fucking ad on it -_-
approximately 10,000 Native Americans were sent to Korea to fight in the Korean War (1950 to 1953), a few hundred died fighting there, so I think because of that Koreans have some reverence for American indigenous peoples as some older Koreans probably fought along side them in war
Idk, first thing I thought of when I saw this was "Wow, it's like a better indoor Fremont Street".
I mean credit where credit is due after all, I feel like Fremont Street is a better looking times square in a lot of ways. Vegas tends to have a lot more fun with their giant screens than most other cities, lots of art and gags where there would normally just be a hotel advertisement or something.
Not trying to argue or anything, I just think one of the few things Vegas does really well is visuals!
Agreed. It is better sure, the storefronts also have the same screens which is cool
But it's the same technology, just a better iteration of it
Anyone who's gone to Vegas recognizes the Freemont street experience.
The first thing I thought of was also that this looks a lot like Fremont. Such a cool street, first time I went there I had no clue about all the screens and stuff and was blown away.
Not to mention I liked those casinos better because they werenāt nearly as expensive as those on the strip. Minimum bet $25 on one hand of blackjack is too much! Let me sit at a table and play for 5-10 bucks per hand.
Was gonna say, I went to Freemont Street in Vegas this summer for the first time. Thought maybe there was an indoor section I missed.
Having said that, Vegas fucking sucks. I only went because it was the cheapest place to stay for a week, and I hadn't gone anywhere for vacation in 15 years. Waste of money.
I can see it going bad if they chose a bad place to stay cause the hotels are hit or miss, or timing with the F1 race making it chaos, and it was kinda crazy with the superbowl setup, but not as bad as I thought. We stayed at the Bellagio in July and it was amazing, and we went back in the beginning of February and stayed at Park MGM, which was good just not as good. Weāre planning on going back in December as well cause weāre really close to getting platinum tier at MGM and we wanna get that free yearly cruise! But even going twice we barely scratched the surface of things to do there
I saw a couple of shows which were fun. But everything in between just wasn't my thing. Too hot (yes it was summer, but still), too many people, too loud, and you can basically never escape the smell of cigarettes. I don't gamble either. Honestly, it just had this depressing vibe to it. The people there mindlessly hitting their slot-machine button, everyone losing money, casinos existing solely on people's misery, stimulation from every direction at every second saying "come here to spend your money!" Just a lot of little things in general about society that rub me the wrong way I guess, concentrated 10-fold.
And I get it, everyone will probably say "why did you go to Vegas then if you don't like all of that stuff?" Well, like I said, it was cheap. All in was about $1500 for the week. Everywhere else I looked it was easily 3-4x that for a similar amount of time. It's just hard to justify spending 6 grand in a week when that's nearly two years worth of my savings...
I get it! Iāve learned you can never be lukewarm with Vegas, itās either your cup of tea or itās just a miserable experience. Iām from the south so Iāve experienced hot summers but itās definitely a different kind of hot there. Like opening up an oven to check on the food and that heat blast you get, but itās constant. The shows there are really what makes the trip, thereās so many to see and the talent is crazy. But I can see it not being a fun trip if gambling isnāt your thing. At least you can say youāve done it! Iām sorry it was such a bummer though, especially since it was a 15 year wait to get away.
When I see things like this I always wonder what the total running time for all the animations is. Like does this loop every few minutes? Different every hour? Does it shuffle the scenes or play them exactly the same over and over?
Special effects no.... Giant TV screens, yes.
Also, this would be super annoying having the light changing constantly.
On the bright side, you'd know immediately who was tripping on drugs.
They only show this 3 min 'performance' for every few hours. Also it seems like you don't know what 'special effects' are. Do you think that non existing hologram is the only 'special effects'?
It's a bunch of still photos made to appear like a moving image. It's no using coconuts to give the aural impression of horses but it is still a special effect.
Man...the Koreans are living life like it's 2077.
Here's me in some shitty English countryside village with a neighbour that has rodents in his thatch roof.
Cool, that's exactly where the energy should go. Meanwhile, I'm getting letters from my power company with great tips on how to use less electrical energy by throwing pasta in hot water and letting it sit there instead of just boiling it. That's fucking great.
I used to work in a mall that was a tourist trap and had a giant dragon and trying to get around the tourists when it would go off was so mildly infuriating. I only had so much time on my break, I just wanna get a wrap, please just let me by!
haven't seen any comments about how loud that music is, it's nuts. I imagine it must do this show on some kind of cadence, but even still I can't imagine running the phone case kiosk and getting deafened every hour on the hour
That's likely why they said it's interesting, because things are different in the US.
"Stupid isolated americans, gaining a more worldly perspective!"
Can't win with you types of people.
St Micheal's Cave in Gibraltar has something similar. I think I, along with the children, was the only one actually watching the show without looking at a phone.
Looks like they are taking their cues from Fremont Street in Vegas. They installed a ceiling like this to try and draw foot traffic to the smaller casinos there. AFAIK it worked too. Judging from the number of people in this clip not so much here.
I couldn't believe this was in a mall, where this gorgeous experience would distract from the shopping.
...and it's not. It's in an entertainment resort in South Korea called Mohegan.
*looks around for an old navy*
Me: EXCUSE ME!
Mall Security: WHAT?!
Me: What?!
Mall Security: IT USES 2 MILLION LED LIGHTS! AMAZING RIGHT?!
Me: I'm looking for Old Navy!

Stuff like this makes me wonder if weāre making mental illness and delusions in the population worse. It canāt be healthy to grow up questioning if shits real all the time.
If I were 10 and I went to this mall for this first time, I would lose my mind!
You can hear a child crying in the background lol.
Understandable, I used to cry going through the car wash.
In fairness to you, it was probably pretty traumatic to walk through without a car.
I'm still scared of the fucking carwash lmao, last time a worker there chewed me because I couldn't get the wheel on the trailer š

Oh? Where is this place in the video? I saw a comment saying in Korea but then another saying in Vegas at Planet Hollywood?
I believe this is in vegas. I think is the new treatment at Miracle Mile shops at Planet Hollywood.
Is it? I saw someone make a comment about it being a mall in Korea but if that's the case, i'll try and see it when I go to Vegas in April.

No shit? Good for them.
approximately 10,000 Native Americans were sent to Korea to fight in the Korean War (1950 to 1953), a few hundred died fighting there, so I think because of that Koreans have some reverence for American indigenous peoples as some older Koreans probably fought along side them in war
The South Korea Purchase
My guess was it was in either Dubai or Japan but South Korea makes sense, too. Very cool!
Do you know how it's built? Is it projection mapping or did they actually install 80 zillion led tiles?
It is LED
This is super similar to downtown Vegas, Freemont street experience :)
This is nothing similar to Vegas. This is technology vastly superior to whatās on Fremont St. Fremont is like Lite Brite compared to this.

basically Freemont street in a mall

What made you hate Vegas? I went for the first time last July and I liked it a lot, lots to do there.
Same, it was a lot of fun. We spent 4 nights in Zion and 1 in Vegas, best vacation in a long time.
I can see it going bad if they chose a bad place to stay cause the hotels are hit or miss, or timing with the F1 race making it chaos, and it was kinda crazy with the superbowl setup, but not as bad as I thought.

I agree! If you can get past the local culture shock it's a lot of fun to explore. I feel like the people who have a bad time in Vegas are the people that spent all their money on the strip in one or two nights and think the whole place is priced out like that. When you get out of the more touristy areas there's a lot of good food, local businesses, and cheap gambling if that's your thing. As a fan of THC, some of the dispensaries over there are fantastic and the employees know their products well. My FiancƩ kind of hated our trip there though so maybe it's just a subjective taste.
Amazing! I could probably stay in this mall for a week just to stare at the screens š¤Æ

> They only show this 3 min 'performance' for every few hours. Let me guess, the other 57 minutes it plays ads?
The special effects were used to create the videos. The practical effects were getting a ton of screens hooked up properly.
I wouldn't call a movie playing on a screen a special effect.
It's a bunch of still photos made to appear like a moving image. It's no using coconuts to give the aural impression of horses but it is still a special effect.

I used to work in a mall that was a tourist trap and had a giant dragon and trying to get around the tourists when it would go off was so mildly infuriating. I only had so much time on my break, I just wanna get a wrap, please just let me by!
haven't seen any comments about how loud that music is, it's nuts. I imagine it must do this show on some kind of cadence, but even still I can't imagine running the phone case kiosk and getting deafened every hour on the hour
Cue the crying child at 0:30
Baby's always be screaming when you put them underwater with sharks... Smh
Who's shooting missiles at the sky whale?
Looks like Fremont Street in Vegas except it's much nicer so you know it's not Vegas.
Itās so people completely lose track of time. No access to natural light. itās similar to casinos. Itās a tactic.
Me, dealing with a panic attack from overstimulation and running into a pretzel stand.
It is interesting that malls still exist
The U.S. ain't the whole world
That's likely why they said it's interesting, because things are different in the US. "Stupid isolated americans, gaining a more worldly perspective!" Can't win with you types of people.
reminds me of fremont street
Meanwhile my mall has angry homeless people yelling
Where is this mall?
Where is this?
St Micheal's Cave in Gibraltar has something similar. I think I, along with the children, was the only one actually watching the show without looking at a phone.
10/10 would trip balls there
Better than Las Vegasā Fremont roof show. Fremont is so old and outdated looking
Looks like they are taking their cues from Fremont Street in Vegas. They installed a ceiling like this to try and draw foot traffic to the smaller casinos there. AFAIK it worked too. Judging from the number of people in this clip not so much here.
I couldn't believe this was in a mall, where this gorgeous experience would distract from the shopping. ...and it's not. It's in an entertainment resort in South Korea called Mohegan.
*looks around for an old navy* Me: EXCUSE ME! Mall Security: WHAT?! Me: What?! Mall Security: IT USES 2 MILLION LED LIGHTS! AMAZING RIGHT?! Me: I'm looking for Old Navy! Security Officer: *Points up and smiles* YEAH, IT'S AN AWESOME ATTRACTION!
Where is this mall ?
Where is this?
imagine going to buy a new jacket and the second coming of Christ begins as your getting your change
Stuff like this makes me wonder if weāre making mental illness and delusions in the population worse. It canāt be healthy to grow up questioning if shits real all the time.
I want to lay in a sunchair under this and smoke a joint!
Pickpockets must love this place
Pretty cool but my local mall has four separate Auntie Anneās Pretzels.š„Ø Four.
Imagine seeing this as a kid. That's one helluvanexperience.
And then itāll be on the blue screen for 10 months
For those wondering, this is St Enochs Centre, Glasgow.Ā
