This video contains multiple POV (point of views) of Maelstrom from the front row capturing various angles (including one with night vision), the queue, ride loading and unloading areas and some hidden details.
There are a lot of rumors that this ride could be closed soon and turned into a ride for Disney's Frozen.
Maelstrom is a boat ride located in the Norway pavilion of Epcot's World Showcase at the Walt Disney World resort in Lake Buena Vista, Florida (just outside of Orlando). The ride originally opened on July 5th, 1988.
