Before we start this story, the team of Jurassic Outpost would like to offer our thoughts and prayers to those who have been affected by the devastation of Hurricane Harvey and Hurricane Irma.
Unfortunately this time of year is known for hurricanes and on September 11, 1992, the production of Jurassic Park had filming temporarily halted as Hurricane Iniki, a category 4 hurricane, hit the island of Kauaʻi as well as other Hawaiian islands. Today marks the 25th anniversary of this natural event.
To learn more about Hurricane Iniki and how it impacted the Jurassic Park production, please check out the 2009 episode of Storm Stories below.
On this 25th anniversary of Hurricane Iniki, let us know your thoughts below and on our forums. Also please keep the victims of Hurricane Harvey and Hurricane Irma in your thoughts and prayers.

Wow i had no idea this had happened during the filming of JP! This was a great share thank you!
Thanks! Loved watching this episode. This is obviously very topical today!
Interesting to know which scenes were filmed before and after the hurricane
i feel very bad for those people in florida and houston i live in texas and thank God i didnt get hit btw sam neills and my birthday is coming in two days 9-14
My prayers are with those people affected by the two latest hurricanes.
As for the news, I had no idea of that.
I hadn’t even been born by the time the first Jurassic film was released, but I most certainly recall hearing/reading about what the cast & crew did. I especially remember Spielberg talking about Attenborough (RIP) sleeping through the storm at night, and when asked, Attenborough said, “My boy, I slept through the Blitz!”
I have family on the Texas Gulf Coast, and they were very lucky to not be hit as hard as Houston. My thoughts and prayers to those affected.
Isn’t this why they cut out the scene showing Arnold being killed?
I knew there was a hurricane I just didn’t know what it was called this is why I live JO so much!!
