The joke was that he whited out the word "not". I see this trick all too often on the Linkin Park forums I frequent.
Back to Everest.

How long has the Yedi been in B-mode, anyway? From my understanding, the last time it wasn't was back in 2009. So it's been about, say, six years since it last worked?
Sheez. Years from now, I'd imagine it'd be really awkward to read that one of WDW's key attractions had its defining animatronic shut off for several years.

Since 2007.
Allegedly a few instances here and there up through 2009, but that information is iffy.

Damn, so it really has been non-functional for almost a decade. That's pretty embarrassing on TDO's part, especially considering how much they were hyping the thing up.
(Ahead to 5:05) Looking back at this is pretty sad.

Now I'm really upset with Everest. Not because of this years-old Yeti situation, but because it's the first March Magic voting competition and it's up against Star Tours! And I'll tell ya, it's not looking good for Star Tours.
It's a shame that a ride that is barely working is going to beat out a genuinely good attraction.

Perhaps it got the Red Ring of Death?

I think Disney could use a lot of changes, but when the parks are PACKED TO THE GILLS everyday, why bother? Look at it from their viewpoint. why do anything when you can't keep people away.
So close to both 2000 posts, and 100 pages, and still no yeti

When the Yeti is fixed I shall call it Return of the Yedi.

Not sure if anyone's seen this, but I just rediscovered a video with a demo of the yeti working with no sheet covering it. Couldn't find it for a while but here's the link:
Yeti is at around 1:10. Also has some other cool animatronic demos.

Nice find. I believe that could be the only clear footage online. And if I had to guess, even that isn't the full range of movement.

Wow. I don't know that I've ever seen that. That's amazing.
