That's crazy. I'm glad no one was harmed or put in serious danger. Gotta love 'ole reliable here on the east coast. She may not be much, but she's at least something...

I know it is not popular opinion, but I prefer the look of the DHS dragon. More like a "nightmare" really. I wish it had more of a body and physical presence though which would make it more ominous but the DL version (RIP) was too cartoony.

Watching the videos of how long it took them to clear people away from the fantasmic area during the fire the only conclusion I can come to is that if there is ever a real fire in an area with a lot of guests then a lot of people are going to die. They don’t appear to have any plan to open up choke points to get people away from a fire quickly.

They do have plans in place to evacuate guests quickly in an emergency. Guests were not in danger here.

Yeah, definitely the fuel tank hydraulics started leaking.

Then with the head going in a straight up position, that allowed the fuel to drip down the entirety of the dragon.

Favorite moments:
Yo, this isn't supposed to happen.
This is going viral, bro!
Dragon bonfire... stay and watch. Fuel hyraulics tank explodes... RUN AWAY!​
Pre-recorded, "The show will not continue." Yeah, a-duh. How about anyone get on the PA and tell them get out *now*?​
In the end, the upbeat jazzy BGM while Maleficent burns.​
There's another video where a guy is singing Hellfire as a woman is cursing in disbelief. Oh it was glorious

Here's a fun blooper/mishap I recently found.

The lift for Mickey to go down did not work at the end. So after the "Some Imagination huh?" line, Tuxedo Mickey was stuck on stage and you can seem him through the smoke and lights lol.

A couple of nights ago one of the Fantasmic fountains remained on during the entire show. Just a single one, never turned off before or after the show.

I am mostly amazed at how fast they got those fountains to come up to hide him.
