This is not a steel coaster, it`s a dark boat ride. It was in the 70`s when I was just a kid when I first experienced the flooded mine, now called shootout at the flooded mine. As a child it left quite an impact on me and I`m transformed back to my youth every time I ride it now as an adult. It initially kind of scared my 4 year old daughter but she later said she liked it. I liked this ride better before the guns were added, if you choose to shoot at the targets it takes your attention away from the wonderful construction and animation designed and built by Silver Dollar City in the 60`s. The sound effects as well as the miners voices haven`t changed since this rides inception. I wouldn`t want it any other way! It even has the same aroma inside I remember as a kid. A great looking ride inside and out (water inside and out - you enter across a bridge). An historic ride!
