Have you taken accidental photos of/with strangers at WDW?

[Sketch105]

When I was younger, it was tough to get pictures with characters. There were always crowds. I have several pictures where I'm in it with someone I don't know.

ANy of you experience this?

I remember this one time I went to take a pic of this crash test dummy guy out in front of test track, and he goes over a hugs this guy and looks at me like I know him. So i took the picture. I have no idea who that guy was!


(by the way, i'll be back to post the pics. If you happen to be in one of them, please come forward so I can at least know your name.:wave:

I was always surprised when I got a picture that DIDN'T have a stranger in it!

My sister and I always make a point of waving when we know we're going to be in someone's photo at the parks. I'm sure other people do it, too.....uhh....come on....you guys do it too, right?

I like to just randomly jump into family's pictures......I've actually received a few copys of the pictures I've appeared in.....most people seem really willing to get a picture of a CM making bunny ears or making strange faces with their family

On my last trip to WDW, I was leaving the MK at night and some stranger just took a picture of us! I am guessing he was just using up the rest of his film the last night there.

Heres the pic of the stranger. This one was my fault. I meant it to be only the dummy, but he randomly hugged the guy next to him.

I have another one with me, Winnie the pooh, and some little girl.

Yep I have alot of Strangers in my WDW photos hehe.

I make it a point to get in others photos...just so they remember who WDW really belongs to(me of course).

Once I was taking a picture of the Haunted Mansion and this teenaged girl walked into the frame. I still think it is a good picture because she is REALLY HOT!

Since my son will not take pictures with some characters (anything with a real Face and no Enlarged mask) I have many pictures of other people with characters!

I'm sure I've aggrivated tons of people because I'm in their pics. Me and my friends jumped in with a family once and stood next to their kids, they just kinda chuckled. I dunno what they were thinking.

My wife and I don't have children yet, so we have lost of pictures of strangers with the characters, although we try to get the pictures when they are alone (the characters, not the children). I also have lots of video of other people's kids and the characters.

The cool thing about the video is that if the characters notice you are taping them, they'll usually give you a quick wave between pictures. That kind of personalizes it some for you.

I really hate it when some beautiful girl walks into my pictures. My wife can't understand why I have so many pics of trashcans and queues that were ruined by some pretty girl walking past in them. :animwink: I've posted before how it would be cool to find myself in some complete stranger's Disney pics. You know somewhere out there you're in a picture in someone's photo album.

my family and i went down one halloween and went to mickey's not so scary halloween party. we went dressed up and i was a christmas tree, with battery powered christmas lights. i think i took 10 or 20 pictures with people and i'm probably in the background of a lot of other pics too...my little sisters was a sun that year, and she had yellow lights around the edges of her sun, she also got a lot of pics!

My sister and I love looking at the photos available to buy taken on the rides and listening to people that have ridden with us say they are going to get the picture. One trip we were being taken back to England. Our pics are probably spread out all over the world, what fun, too bad I can't be there for real. We also enjoy taking pics for other people so the whole party/family can be in on it. Our pics are also full of strangers, part of the WDW experience.

[The_CEO]

I was walking into the Magic Kingdom, and well, the trolley was right there. My Dad would never let us ride the trolley in the old days because it was a D ticket. So, we just got in the habit of not riding it. So now, and this is many many trips later, my Dad wasn't with me. In fact, it was just a few weeks ago. I jumped on the trolly. I think I must be in at least 50 pictures. I just smiled and waved. It was so cool.

another family moment ruined by now inc, eh? Hee, hee, where have i heard that before?

 

[hockeymom]

my husband swears he didn't take this picture (from '88), but we have no idea who these people are, or why I even kept the photo, other than it seemed to be a lot harder to get pix of the characters....
