I've found a Disney Imagineer youtube channel by Jim Shull

Just thought that a youtube channel by an ex Disney Imagineer may interest some folk on here and it doesn't have many subscribers. It's run by Jim Shull and I think there's some fascinating insights into some of the parks and he discusses projects he worked on designing and explains why certain things were done.

It seems fairly well balanced as he's able to criticise the things he doesn't like which I know will be popular to many on here, whilst also praising things Disney has done and is still doing. I'll post his latest video first called 'Can Disney Studios Paris be fixed' where he discusses some of the attractions he worked on along with backstage pictures.

If you like it then why not subscribe or just watch some other videos of his. If not, just ignore me as I have no connection to him or his channel and I'm just sharing in case anyone else is interested.

I often see Jim's tweets on Twitter and it seems like he's lost the plot half the time. Is his YouTube any better?
He's not the life and soul of the party but on some of his videos he talks about the attractions he helped to design and explains the process behind them and even pictures of them being built. His videos where he is perhaps just talking about generic things aren't that stimulating but you can pick and choose what interests you.

I generally like him for his insights on stuff he worked on but outside of that he can be a bit of a pain. A bit prone to pot stirring and sometimes just outright misinformation or lying about things. But when he gets into the mode of talking about his work he is very informative.
