“Uh sir…. SIR!” Internet prankster youtuberickey found a secret spot that no one else was fishing. Unfortunately, that spot was a tank at Sea World in Orlando. before we get to that, how did he get a fishing pole into Sea World? Someone at the gate should have probably flagged that. As the employee stated “It doesn’t matter if you’re playing. That’s not safe for our animals. That’s not safe for you.”

Two more things we need to discuss. What’s up with the person who was casually sitting there that quickly disappeared? And can we talk about that shirt? I’m thinking she called security.

Was pranking Sea World worth it?

A Sea World ticket on sale is around $45. With the person running the camera, that’s $90. 1.6 million Tik Tok views will reportedly net you around $50-$60. So before you head into a theme park for a stunt, know that it’ll probably cost you. And it might get you banned. It was funny, though. “I was told to do this.” This stunt was actually part of a much longer video previously posted on Youtube.

SeaWorld Orlando Voted Number One Amusement Park In America

SeaWorld Orlando got more votes than any of the Disney Parks, and more votes than any of the Universal parks. In a USA Today 10 Best Poll, Sea World in Orlando beat out all the rest to claim the Best Amusement Park in the United States. According to USA Today, what set SeaWorld ahead of all the competitors was “Most famous as a marine zoological park, SeaWorld Orlando has made a name for itself in the world of high-octane thrill rides as well, including Manta – one of the only coasters of its kind in the world – and Mako, a hyper coaster with deep dives, high speeds and thrills aplenty. Young visitors can now walk down Sesame Street and interact with their favorite furry friends.”

Their polling methodology was for the editors to create a list of great amusement parks and then let their readers choose their favorite. It was no surprise to see 3 Florida parks on the list, but one suspicious omission. Universal Orlando did not make the top 10. And in other amusement park news, SeaWorld may look to further dominate the top 10. SeaWorld already owns the Busch Gardens parks on this list and just last week (2/1/2022) SeaWorld made an offer to buy Cedar Fair who own such parks as King’s Island near Cincinnati, and Cedar Point in Sandusky. Both of those parks also made this list of Top 10.
