  IMAX Facts

• The screen is 4500 times bigger than an average TV screen.
• The film is strong enough to pull a truck.
• A 2D IMAX camera weighs approx. 80 pounds. That means if wildlife shows up, you can't grab a camera and follow it as you can with video or 16mm. The 3D IMAX camera is the size of a hotel mini-bar refrigerator and weighs 265 pounds.
• Light from the 15,000-watt lamp in an IMAX® projector is so bright that if it were on the moon we could see it from earth with the naked eye.
• If a large log were held in front of the light beam from the projector, it would spontaneously combust.
• The l5/70 film frame used by the IMAX® projection system is 10 times the size of a conventional 35mm frame.
• Sonics Proportional Point Source™ (PPS) loudspeaker system was specifically designed for IMAX® theatres. The system typically uses 44, laser focused speaker drivers located throughout the theatre to fully envelope the audience.
• A typical 45 minute large-format 2D film for IMAX® theatres is three miles or 15,840 feet long. 
• IMAX Technology is entirely "Made in Canada".
