When I got to drop into Chessington World of Adventures for a look behind the scenes at its new World of Jumanji, the man who dreamed it up was on hand to witness his creation in action for the first time.
John Burton beamed as the roller coaster hurtled along the tracks in a spiral around the towering head of a snarling jaguar, soaring gracefully up into the clouds as was intended over the past three years of designing, modelling and engineering.
As a theme park fan, getting to see behind the scenes of Chessington was an incredibly exciting opportunity.
