How about the one about Walt's head being frozen....Come on everyone knows it was his whole body

What about the sinkhole in Epcots parking lot that swallowed a taxi and its passengers and was filled in and paved over by morning.

I understand you can still hear the radio...

actually he isn't frozen ...his brain was put in one of those glass jars and hooked up to a super computer under spaceship earth and fromthere he controls the world *the whole world not just disney* and in case of natural disasteres the he can activate the force shield that comes out of spaceship earth protecting disney ...and that is just the begining ....

Actually we have a dome over WDW. It's how we control the weather. You know we don't want people to feel like they got their money's worth so we make it rain.

just so you know that partially right, the castle in the background on the origional little mermaid clamshell (case) was the symbol you speak of. the towers were actually shaped like... yup you guess it. all these were recalled from my video store but im sure they are floating around somewhere

anywho the urban legend i was curious about was dis walt really have an apartment above mainstreet that he watched families com into the park.

even if its not true its nice to think so. kinda wonder what he would think today

The part of this story about how the tapes were recalled because of the image is true. It just got so much publicity that Disney caved to public pressure. But it wasn't drawn by a disgruntled Disney artist (actually the artist who did the cover didn't even work for Disney). The resemblance of the castle spire to a male anatomical feature was purely coincidental (I always found it humorous that it was religious right-wingers who noticed this. I guess their minds are just as much in the gutter as anyone else's). Also, I think the turrets on the Little Mermaid Castle can be removed in case of a hurricane <wink wink>

As for Walt's apartment on Main Street, that is true. It is still there above the Fire Station.

Walt died in 1966 and WDW opened in 1971 so he couldn't have watched out of the window anyway

I have been told that there was a place that was planned to be Walt's Office on Main Street in WDW, didn't know that there was one in DL too.

Certainly not impossible, but if it actually did happen as many times as I've heard the stories, they'd probably have to get rid of the characters.[/B]

I don't know about inappropriate touching by characters but I was flipped off by a CM at the HM back in October... I was trying to be as dead pan as she was when I passed her after unloading and when we were next to each other she looked over at me and gace a quick rub of her eye with her middle finger... Iwas like :lol: and just about fel out LMAO.... Oh, well, I guess you had to be there...

There is a lamp that is always turned on in the window of the Fire Hall on the Main ST at DL, in memory of Walt.
