Two brothers once hid on Tom Sawyer Island in DL. One of the brothers drowned trying to swim back across the Rivers of America.

Two guys hid in Horizons in the 90's. They maintain a great blog about their astonishing adventures.

I think you would be able to mix into the crowd if you ever jumped off the boat on Pirates. But why bother? You'd get a nice conviction/fine/permanent banishment.

Except that you'd have to be dressed like a pirate! :ROFLOL:

Interesting stuff.... still seems like a lot of effort for so little gain and so much risk

I guess it's all relative. Some would think it's so MUCH to gain for so little risk. :shrug:

Yep. Not only a few hundred people working all over the parks inside and out but security checks every door, closet, corner, hallway and open areas continually each night. They have Orange Co. Sherrif Dept. on standby. I've personally seen people get taken off twice for just this reason.
Gators have been found in those waters several times. Guests report it to CMs and they have to shut down the ride until they can remove them. Not a chance I'd be willing to take!

I've never heard that before. Belated April Fool's Day prank perhaps?

SCARY! They could easily get a guest.

In all seriousness, I've heard these stories too. Gators showing up in POTC on the rare occaison, and especially Rivers Of America. Never heard of any attacks/injuries ever reported though.

This past December it happened. A friend of mine works at POTC and was the one to do a ride through to confirm it.

this is probably a stupid question, but how exactly did the gators get in? i always figured that with rides like potc and it's a small world that they essentially built a huge indoor pool with a track and theming (sp?). is potc reliant on a natural water source? :veryconfu again, sorry if this is the stupidest thing you've ever heard.
