Attractions with their lights on, starting with Spaceship Earth

Probably posted before but still a great video. Spaceship Earth with it's working lights on including the 'money shot' at the top. Quite amazing watching it really and seeing the hidden stairwells and lifts along with the not so tidy areas that you normally wouldn't get to see. A word of warning, the people filming drop a few swear words during the video.

I would love to do Space Mountain with the lights on. The video a CM took during a CM-only ride on SM at Disneyland was awesome.

Rock n Roller used to be on YouTube. May still be.

There's various ToTs too. Usually from the 5thD onwards.

I prefer the illusion to be honest. Yeah, I've seen Space Mountain's video with the lights on and am aware that it only goes 28mph. I guess that is just classic Disney magic to make it seem much more scarier and intense. Not that you wouldn't get badly hurt or even killed if you fell out of a moving vehicle going at 28mph but it is slower than one might think.

I wouldn't want to see Haunted Mansion with the lights on either. It would kill it. That one scene with the long hallway I don't doubt is just an optical illusion but it still looks real. Or the graveyard scene, it is better with the lights out.

That's fair enough and understandable Big Phil. I'm just one of those inquisitive people who wants to know everything though.
