If you saw the ride vehicles, it does not look possible for them to turn you upside down: face down, flat on your back and sideways, yes, but a complete inversion, no.

I have the picture of the ride seats saved. If it didn't take me 20 minutes to post on here anymore I would try to link it for you guys!

I was hoping I wasn't frozen anymore but it looks like I still am. Such a shame, I really know you guys miss me.

Ellen's video is posted on her website so you can watch it now instead of waiting for the broadcast later. They showed her in the various shops and in the queue for FJ but did not show any clips of that ride or Dragon Challenge. They did show them on FOTP, which is the kiddie coaster in that area.

Just checked it out. Awesome. Can't wait. That left me wanting to see more.

It's very possible. Will this ride turn you upside-down? Probably not. But it can.

What I meant was since the vehicle is attached to the arm, I can't see it going in a complete circle like a roller coaster inversion. Still, if it is going to mimic flying as in the movies then I suspect there will be a LOT of dips, sweeps, and sudden starts and stops. Can't wait!!
