The Water World stunt show is there to give visitors a taste of life on earth post-global warming, and Shrek 4-D is there to let visitors enjoy having the sensation of donkey expectorating in their faces and unseen creatures crawling all around them.  Mist sprayers in the seats and moveable rubber tubes are the real perpetrators.
