This is a combination track ride and motion simulator. It's like they put the flight simulator from Star Tours on a track, but instead of watching a video screen you travel through highly detailed environments. You ride a military troop-transport vehicle; in addition to moving along its path, the vehicle bucks and pitches (the simulator part) in sync with the visuals and special effects. The story is minimal, all you need to know is that you're in search of the Crystal Skull. The ride consists of a mad race to escape the temple as it collapses around you. In the process, you encounter snakes, spiders, lava pits, rats, swinging bridges, and the house-sized granite bowling ball that everyone remembers from Raiders of the Lost Ark.

The Indiana Jones ride is a Disney masterpiece--nonstop action from the beginning to end with brilliant visual effects. Elaborate even by Disney standards, the attraction provides a level of detail and variety of action that make use of the entire Imagineering arsenal of high-tech gimmickry.

Oh and don't worry, even though it uses "the Crystal Skull" in its name, it has nothing to do with the awful Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull movie (which was actually released 7 years after DisneySea's Indiana Jones ride was opened).
