Discover the Niagara Adventure Movie Experience: A Cinematic Journey Through History (Formerly IMAX Niagara Falls)

Legends, Daredevils, and the history of the Falls

Did you know that in 10,000 years, Niagara Falls will be gone?! It’s already retreated 7 miles from where it started.

The film starts off with the history of the local tribe, the Iroquois, then onto the European settlers from France, the battle of 1812, and the first steamboat to come up the Niagara River Rapids. Of course today we have jet boats that go through the Rapids & whirlpools, but in 1860, you can imagine a steamboat would have been quite the feat.

The movie then goes onto showcase various famous legends and daredevils to play “chicken” with the falls, including; 

• 
  Jean Francois Gravelot; better known as “The Great Blondin”
• Annie Taylor, a 63 retired teacher went over the falls in a barrel in 1901
• Roger Woodworth “the miracle of the falls” went over in only a life vest and lived to tell the tale in 1960

The falls legends have many who have attempted, but not been successful in their triumphs.

Not only was the movie an accurate depiction of stunts themselves, but the period costume, and quality of the old props & boats really made this movie stand out.

IMAX® on one of the world's most famous waterfalls

IMAX® is the perfect medium to create a film about the world’s most famous waterfall since its large format enables a filmmaker to extend the experience of the Falls. Millions visit the Falls each year, but many of the subtleties and beauty of the Falls are hidden from the naked eye.

The IMAX® screen is designed to encompass the viewers peripheral vision so that they are less aware of being in a movie theatre and engulfed solely in the visual wonders of the film. It is simply the most involving cinematic experience available.

IMAX® projectors are the most advanced, highest-precision and most powerful

projectors ever built. The key to their superior performance and reliability is the unique “Rolling Loop”; film movement. The Rolling Loop advances the film horizontally in a smooth, wave-like motion.

The Sonics Proportional Point Source™ Loudspeaker system, specifically designed for IMAX® theatres, eliminates variations in volume and sound quality over the theatre seating area. This allows all members of the audience to experience superb sound quality regardless of where they may be seated.

What to Expect

As you settle into your seat, prepare to be amazed by the high-definition, high-impact visuals that will make you feel like you’re right in the middle of Niagara’s most daring moments.

With multilingual presentations, the film is accessible to a diverse international audience, ensuring that visitors from around the world can enjoy the experience in 6 different languages.
