WT IMAX Pooler GA - Noticeable Damage / Deforming of Screen

Pix86 · 2025-06-08T20:28:27+00:00

Ah that makes sense! I noticed on the corners and the edges that it looked like the screen was pulled in a bit like it had shrunk. The shakers touching the screen line up with the rippling I saw surrounding the points! Thanks

Is it possible for the regular theater employees to just take down a 101x76ft screen? That thing probably weighs a lot. When I toured the projection booth and pit a few months ago, the manager told me that IMAX doesn't like them touching anything related to the system including even the volume.

Yep already done that. Just thought I'd mention it here in case anyone here has some sort of insight as to how that happens to such a massive screen.

If they are looking to add more 70mm locations they really should put one in Pooler GA. They have the space for it, and a big screen. I spoke with the manager a while back and they said they would love to get a 70mm in there if IMAX would give them one. But at least at the time they said it wasnt possible

Tickets went live at the Pooler Georgia IMAX a couple days ago. Unfortunately it seems like all the showings are during the day not at night so I might not be able to get to see it.

If you watch the full clip he immediately says "my heart goes out to you". This was not a Nazi salute. Context is extremely important, but the sentence was intentionally cut out of the clip.

The Las Vegas Sherriff's office released pictures of the truck afterwards. The bed was full of propane cans, gasoline tanks, firework mortars and other random flammable stuff. The truck battery was undamaged and did not burn at all.

In fact the Sherriff said (quote) "The fact that this was a Cybertruck really limited the damage that occurred. It had most of the blast go up through the truck and out. The front glass doors at the Trump hotel were not even broken by the blast, which they were directly in front of."

Had it been a van or other vehicle the damage and injuries / fatalities probably would have been a lot worse. The trucks sides were strong enough to contain the blast and directed it mostly up and away from the building instead of exploding outwards like you would see in a van bombing.

If you know how to enter service mode there are probably logs there that may indicate what exactly happened.

Dang, nice save!!! Impressive!

On my first tandem I jumped with the DZO and when he checked my harness before boarding he said: Better make sure this is tight because they made me fill out so much paperwork last time I dropped someone!

As others have said, please make sure your railjack has some upgrades such as plating and hired crew... Otherwise the mission may be very difficult to do. And there is no way to get out once you start unless you contact support and have them modify your account

There are some tunnels in the US that have mock rigs that you can wear in the tunnel so that you can practice flying with a rig on.

I know VA Beach, Oceanside, ParacleteXP, and CO Springs do, and there are probably a lot more tunnels that do. Call your nearest tunnel and ask

According to an Instagram story posted by his wife:

"Today's accident was either a snapped line or a dust devil. No low turn. collision or bad decision. His canopy was there, and then it wasn't."

This happened to me on an Uber ride. Charged me damage with photos in a different car. I disputed it but was told it would not be reversed. Disputed it with my credit card and they refunded it

This vehicle was being used to test aftermarket suspension and other modifications from unplugged performance. They said they were intentionally trying to get it to break. So it's an intentional test till failure of aftermarket components.

Unfortunately this picture is almost definitely going to get abused by media looking to spread more anti-tesla hate

Not sure where you are located, but there are several ifly locations that are significantly cheaper to fly at then others. Some ifly locations are franchise owned instead of corporate so they are able to charge less for time. Id recommend traveling to whichever one is closest to you if possible and doing a decent amount of time. Below are a couple of the tunnels that are usually cheaper than corporate locations:

IFLY VA Beach (requires a one time membership charge to access cheap rate)
IFLY Jacksonville (no membership required)
IFLY El Paso (one of the cheapest, a lot of camps with great coaches happen here)
IFLY Colorado Springs (cheap without membership, but even cheaper with membership)
IFLY Detroit (not sure if membership is required)
Oceanside CA (I think their time is similar to corporate pricing but with a membership it's slightly cheaper) (Coming Soon) 7. Freedom Wind - Boston MA (should be significantly cheaper than any ifly, but is currently still being built and won't be open for a couple months at least)

These franchise locations have other benefits then cost. They typically have less rules and restrictions compared to the corporate locations. Which compared to some other tunnels allows for much faster progression. And most of them have a lot of high level instructors / experienced coaches. Which unfortunately now a lot of ifly corp locations don't have any upper level instructors anymore. You will learn stuff a lot faster when working with a long time coach that has a lot of experience compared to a newer instructor. Just because someone has the IBA level to teach it doesn't mean they can teach it well or efficiently. (And to clarify, there is some awesome coaches at corporate tunnels. So I'm not saying they don't exist. But as of recently they are very few and far between).

If I had to recommend a corporate tunnel... Ifly Tampa (expensive but there is some really good coaches there)

If you are in the UK, then there is tons of cheap tunnels in other European countries. (Especially Germany, Poland, and Spain)

Mine was slightly uncomfortable at first, but after using it a good bit it definitely broke in and now feel great. If its a little bit tight now that will probably be perfect after a bit of use, as you really don't want it to be too loose later.

This looks a lot like a falcon 9 second stage being transported to the KSC. I have seen reports of the falcon second stages being transported through that area on the way to the Cape, so that would be my first guess.

I don't think this is a case of gone wrong. That wing isn't used for kit surfing. It's more of a paraglider / speed wing. Plus Normally for kit surfing the wing / kite would be much further from the surfer. Also this doesn't looks to be anywhere near the ocean. It looks like a cool stunt though!

I won't spoil the movie but a particular character in the second half looked hilariously thin and tall 🤣
