What did they do to replicate the 13-story drop? That's must be quite a garage....

The second link is a Behind the Scenes video.

That was amazing! I'm impressed by their imagination and engineering skills.

I showed that to my parents and they asked why I couldn't be that creative!:ROFLOL::lol:

Yeah. He said he's going to make a podcast on how to recreate WDW rides in your own house, maybe.

That was great! I loved how they used the closet/box. :lol:

 

[dandaman]

LOL at the kid at the end "throwing up". :lol:

That was epic.

 

[Epcotbob]

That's fantastic!!

When we were re-creating Soarin in my pole barn, we searched and could not find anyone else re-creating mini Disney attractions at home. So good to see we are not the only crazy ones.

That was pretty spiffy. How do they raise and lower the box once it's hooked into the pulley thingies? They can't possibly be doing it by hand.

It must be hooked up to some kind of mechanism. He mentioned some kind of switch on the floor.

That was great. Thanks for posting it. I was wondering how he did the lifting of the box. Good job I must say.

Wow. This inspired me. I'm going to my pool with my pet rabbit to recreate Splash Mountain. Check YouTube for my video...

if the rope goes through a set of pulleys, the weight is cut to fractions. It could be done, but im not going to ride it.

Go ahead and flame me, but I didn't think it was anything spectacular. In fact, I was kind of disappointed...:shrug:

To be honest, if someone had shown me the video without telling me what I was watching, I defnitely would not have picked up on what was going on. It doesn't even really look like ToT's lobby. A few details here and there, but that's it...

 

[Figment25]

Well it sure put to shame the Haunted Mansion recreation my cousin and I did when we were about 10 years old, I have to give them credit, very creative.
