Magic Kingdom "Self destruct" button?

It's not for the park, it's for the Guests....
Here's test footage.

Only at Disney does Elmo's head magically reappear after being blown to Hades.

He scheduled it through FP+.

What's with all the facepalm macros?
It's an old button embellished by someone with a label maker and a little free time.
It's funny.

Someone just pressed it.

So Sebastian the crab was being literal when he said: "Will you get your head out of the clouds and back in the water where it belongs?"

Worse is the fact that Scuttle apparently ate a piece....

Oh no this looks like a VintageEpcot post :-/

Isn’t the self destruct button located in the missile control room next to the cryogenic crypt where Walt’s body is kept?

Well, you know, Hades IS on the payroll.

Wickedly great posts. Laughed for 5 minutes.

Our CM missed that particular item during our tour of the utilidors. Otherwise the annoying know it all guy next to me would have push it.....and THAT would have been the LAST Keys to the Kingdom Tour. lol

It's only a replica. The real one is in Anaheim. Florida never gets the "good" self-destruct buttons as they all stay West.

I see this everytime I come into work before going to a FP kiosk. I've "accidently" pushed it before, how do you think those drawves got a "flame on".

I suspect this button is located backstage near IASM. If I had to listen to that song ad infinitum, I'd push the button everyday on my way out.

Looks like the self destruct button area needs a refurb. Does Iger know about this so we can get some funds allocated? I've seen a better version at Uni... cause we cant let Uni buttons out do ours.

Any validity to this imgur post?

Of course not! If it was true, it would destroy Walt's cryogenically frozen body when someone pressed it! And we can't have that. Also it would most likely send off the missiles hidden in Cinderella Castle.

It used to be functional, but a component burnt out in 2004 during hurricane Frances and they haven't approved the funds to order a replacement yet....

That was replaced about a year ago with one of those mickey head readers so the self destruct can me activated with a magic band. I'll have to dig out the permit I found for it.
