I went to Disneyland with a friend and his family about a year ago. His eldest daughter, who is about 8, had never been on Splash Mountain because she thought it would be scary. We had convinced her by the time we reached the boarding station that it was fun and is filled with lots of singing animals, like the Country Bear Jamboree. Just our luck, all the audio-animatronics went 101, and while the audio played as usual, all of the characters were bent over in unusual and (to a child, I suppose) frightening ways. No one stopped the ride, though, so we went through 10 minutes of dead-looking animals singing "Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah." I thought it was hysterical. I always envy those people who are on the rides when they go 101, but was incredibly disappointed I didn't get to get out and walk the track. Needless to say, though, we have not been able get that child to ride Splash Mountain again. Her younger sister, though, loved it when she finally got to go on it.
I only wish I'd been taping it that day...
