Well that article isn't sensationalistic at all.

Disney doesn't HAVE to clean up anything. It's their property. As long as they keep guests out and it doesn't adversely affect any nearby properties, it's their right. Now, some might not like it, but as far as things to be outraged about go, this is low on the list.

Don't worry, the DVC is coming.

I like how the article says he claims he legally rented a Disney boat...that doesn't mean you're legally permitted to step onto grounds that are closed off to you. Apparently he doesn't understand what that meant.

I never went to River Country, but these photos are a lot of fun to look at. I'd love to visit myself now, but it's not worth the risk of getting banned.

First off: No one died. Dailymail once again proving why they are the equivalent of toilet paper.

Second: This isn't news or rumors. Its been closed and "abandoned" for a while now. Only people who see it are those who sneak in and end up getting rightfully banned for doing so. This "Photographer" is embellishing largely to try and get attention to his less than stellar photos.

Third: The "Photographer" in question may want to rethink his approach, especially when infringing on the term "Dismaland".

In recent months, there has been security posted at River Country with the sole purpose of discouraging all these wannabe urban explorers from sneaking in there. One or Two did it a few years ago and then every "adventurer" with a camera and a dream followed suit thinking they were being daring.

There were confirmed deaths. IIRC, one was the parasite thing, but there were also a couple drownings I believe.

Not all "urban explorers" are also good photographers. I think these photos demonstrate a degree of quality above your typical teenage tresspasser. There was clearly some effort put forth in their composition beyond the typical 'hurry up and snap a few shots before we're caught' photos that we usually see online.

As for Dismaland, there's nothing more ironic than "infringing" on Banksy.

from the article: "Lawless hopes his photos bring awareness to the issue of a huge corporation like Disney failing to clean up what they left behind"
Exactly what type of "awareness" is needed here? I would truly love to know if the author plans to do anything beyond this article in terms of creating the "awareness" he so desperately seeks.

"Lawless wants to know why a powerful company like Disney hasn't cleaned up after its old park"
Seriously? GTFOH. Would he be demanding these answers and claiming conspiracy if he had not been caught and booted out.

This author is no different from all these yahoos that go to a political rally looking to cause trouble but claim they are just "protesting". Then,when they get in trouble or hurt, they claim they are a victim.

I have yet to see a credible source confirming that. Just a lot of "fansites" quoting non-linked articles. Not saying it didn't happen, but I have no basis to believe that it did.

Take this for what you will...but I tend to believe something like this wouldn't be faked...

No links to actual articles. Things like this (or worse) are faked a lot for clickbait.

They should bring this back as part of the Wilderness Lodge / Fort Wilderness ( when it happens ) DVC additions.

And used a Drone to take the photos. Drone use is not allowed on WDW property. Rules? They don't pertain to me...

But hey, he legally rented the boat, so I guess thats good enough.

I'm with the others, who cares if its there rotting. I'd rather them spend the money improving parts of the property we are supposed to visit.

Very cool pictures though.

I hear they're putting Guardians of the Galaxy on River Country

I hear they're putting Guardians of the Galaxy on River Country

A themed water park - even done "on the cheap" - would be miles better than what they're actually doing.

 

[Timekeeper]

I heard that it will become a lot used to store vehicles that are towed on-property due to being in violation of resort parking rules and regulations.

He's coming for you. You know who you are...

.

yeah, he probably mentioned that to say "hey look, I didn't trespass...I just used a drone"... nice try.
In fact some of the pictures look like they would be near impossible to take with a drone.
