The Bone Shaker was a single-rail roller coaster built on Isla Nublar for Jurassic Park. It was constructed as one of the many additional rides that would follow after the park's main attraction, likely out of a need for a more "thrilling" ride than the slow-moving boats and tour jeeps. Although the ride was at near-completion by the time of the Jurassic Park Incident, it was never mentioned on the tour.
Robert Muldoon expressed concern over the ride's proximity to the Herrerasaur and Velociraptor Paddocks, but the InGen board dismissed these worries due to the safety measures in place. During the Incident, the Herrerasaurs broke free and sabotaged the coaster.
Doctor Gerry Harding, his daughter Jess and Nima Cruz visited the Bone Shaker while trying to get to the bottom of the cliff. Together, they managed to restore power to the ride and put it into maintenance mode, but came under attack by several Herrerasaurs who destroyed the ride. The three managed to fight the dinosaurs off and Jess was saved from falling to her death by the timely arrival of Billy Yoder and Oscar Morales who helped to pull her to safety.
Trivia
- The coaster was built over the site of a centuries-old goat path. Nima Cruz, indigenous to the island, was appalled at the sight of this.
