Finally saw the vine lady (DiVine is her name?) at Animal Kingdom - she was so cool and mysterious - and shy. Congrats to the creative mind that thought up this character. A pleasant surprise that was welcomed on a very hot and humid day.

She kind of scared me a little the first time I saw her too, I wasn't expecting it. It is cool to watch for a little bit.

Loved watching her last time I was in AK - very cool costume and creation. Sort of a hidden gem!

The US military can take some pointers from her. It's phenomenal how she blends in with the surrounding vegetation. Then when she maneuvers into another spot, she's so smooth and graceful. I've seen more people gasp from being startled when she steps out to change spots.

One of the best hidden gems at AK. Just amazed me the first time I saw her.

I have never seen her "perform" or "walk" or kick someone in the butte or hit someone on the head! Cool!
I've only seen her slightly move, and then you really had to look for her.

A good sniper makes DiVine look like she was wearing an orange hunting vest with a strobe light on it.

I think she does a great job blending in. People sometimes see everyone standing and staring, so they'll stop and look, too. They don't even see her sometimes and move on.A good sniper makes DiVine look like she was wearing an orange hunting vest with a strobe light on it.

My dad was a sniper a thousand years ago and I asked him if he really blended in like Gibbs on NCIS. He said that he wasn't in the desert, but that they do give you stuff to blend in if that's the goal. He also said the most important part of hiding is not moving and compared it to when we would point out animals in the woods and how sometimes you can talk your head off and the person you're with doesn't see it, but as soon as it moves, they spot it. Said that is why animals instinctively freeze when they sense danger, like a "Deer in the headlights.". And when people are hunting you, staying totally still is the most important part. And he said it like that might be useful information for me, lol. So next time I'm being hunted, I'll try not to move, lol.
DiVine proves the point, though. You can totally miss her until she moves.
Good tip...there are probably a few "Divines"..but the one I saw last week was better (very exotic)than the one on Youtube - who looks more like a fashion model.
Steve Soares also lists her times on his site.

DiVine is actually contracted from a company called Living World Entertainment and if I am not mistaken there are several people that play the Living Vines character.

Indeed she is an outside contractor as are the robotic trashcans named 'Push" and "Pippa". "Wes Palm" retired a few years ago due to Disney cutbacks.
