I remember a time when the PTB considered "revamping" the original diving bell attraction when it was still in place, about 80/81/82 they had "experts" come in from somewhere else...where I do not know...and they rode one of my rides, after the visitors got out, the experts proceeded to walk around the capsule, and one thing they did talk about then was a 360 panoramic view! They wanted to remove some of the wooden panels to put in more windows, but that would have meant shooting additional film, putting it in sequence with what was already in place, and then refitting all five capsules. I'm sure that idea at the time was not cost efficient. Bottom line is, to the best of my knowledge, no changes were made to the original attraction at that time. In a new attraction, something like that could be worked in from the start. Think about this, though, if you see less on screen, you don't know what's coming at you next...a torn off boat dock, a rockslide, Eli Tolts, and so on...might make it more exciting NOT seeing something until the last second!
