Coming to an Imax near you.
They used to show another movie at the Smithsonian Imax, At Sea.  The rough seas regularly made people seasick.  And a different movie, To Fly, gave people vertigo.
This could be great.

I'm pretty certain I saw 'To Fly' back in the mid to late 70's during a visit. The scene you are probably referring to is a long moving camera shot pointing down at a grass field from just a few feet up. The view suddenly drops away as the camera goes over a cliff, still moving forward and then the shot changes to that of an early Curtis biplane something like this:



IIRC, some people would barf after seeing the drop away.
