New 'Jurassic World' Exhibit Features Life-Like Animations At Franklin Institute
CENTER CITY (CBS) -- A long awaited exhibit, where you are able to walk among dinosaurs finally made its North American debut on Tuesday at the Franklin Institute in Logan Square.
Visitors start their trip to Jurassic World on a boat heading to the island. Instructions are given and once there, you get a close look of all the dinosaurs, some about 25 feet tall. You see the Raptors, and you even experience a security breach, where the giant Tyrannosaurus Rex is looking for a tasty snack, which could be you if you aren't careful.
"I love dinosaurs and I just love see them and I think its so cool," said 15-year-old Ty Simpkin, he played Gray Mitchell in the movie Jurassic World when he was 10.
He is originally from Medford, New Jersey and a huge Philly sports fan.
He even had to get a Wawa hoagie before heading back to California.
The Jurassic World exhibition is underway at the Franklin Institute through April 23rd.
It features the most life-like dinosaur animations in the world. It also has hands-on educational and science-based interactives.
