That's really nice - that's something that I didn't know. I wonder if they do the same thing with money from the fountains & Cinderella's wishing well.

I wonder if they donated my old cell phone and Indians hat to charity from Splash Mountain?

Yeah, notes to self:
1. If you're going to try to take a picture on Splash Mountain with your cell, make sure you have a very good grip of it and that you are not hanging it over the edge of the boat for a better shot.
2. If your hat has blown off once into the lap of the person behind you, you should probably not wear it the next time on the ride.

I don't think this has anything to do with just "the 3rd seat"....

I know, I thought the fact that Disney sent the coins in the SW river to charity was interesting, too!

If you've looked, there is actually A LOT of change! (And I mean A LOT)
Does anyone know how much money they donate from small world alone?

Why would it be stealing the consumers money? They are the ones that decided to throw their change in there in the first place.

It is true, I work in Fantasyland and can confirm of this, it's donated to Give Kids the World I believe, but the change is collected and donated, yes.

I'm suprised it is not donated to UNICEF since the ride was originally built for the 1964-65 New York Worlds Fair.

They are not always in the most obvious locations but there is usually a sign around or in the water features somewhere that identifies where any money goes.

Then shouldn't they ENCOURAGE throwing change in the water? :shrug:

I was in the FIRST seat and Got soaked....after dropping from the main shute when it came around water was shot up around the briar patch and hit me and my son...we were COMPLETELY soaked through and through....its all about timing...i got off and watched and it would hit sometimes others it missed...but i must say more in the back row got the soaking than the front...at least while i watched for 30 minutes while i dried out....

last time i rode splash mountain i had my hands in the air for the drop...next thing i know i have a cap in my hand...it had flown off the head of a guy in front of me and my hand must've been in the right place at the right time...it was a cracking catch!!
