That was back when people were in denial about there being no A/C and refused to take no for an answer. And then when the reality hit, they asserted all sorts of horrible things will happen if there were no A/C.
It was never about someone expressing a preference for A/C being problematic.

If this has been posted before, I apologize. What you are looking at are two gondolas on two separate lines. One is going one way and one is going the other. One has the characters and the other doesn't. The closest one you cannot see the line it is attached to but you can see the door assembly the other that is going the opposite direction has the door on the other side of it.

I asked this question somewhere, about what if the system breaks down in the heat and you are stranded above water. They said they have emergency back up plans for all scenarios, to safely get passengers out of them.
That's right. That's why I won't ride the Skyliner unless I'm in my bathing suit.

We have seen plans to build a boat dock on Hourglass Lake specifically to handle this scenario.

Always bet on stupidity. I used to work for a spy themed bar/restaurant with various gadgets and gags in the place and the amount of over-engineering you need to do to keep people from doing things you don't want them to do so they don't get hurt is surprisingly higher than you ever think of. YOu idiot -proof something and sooner or later they build a better idiot.
The big centerpiece attraction was a spy elevator that opened from a deli's "cooler", elevator car slid open one wall let you into the car, the car shook on a spring bed, blew some air from vents, did Doppler effect adjusted sounds of various floors as you passed them, and then the end the elevator car back wall blew open to let you into the restaurant. People would try the elevator buttons which didn't do anything. But they would try to blow open the door early, or try to open the entrance sliding elevator door to go backwards, to attempt to open the vents or button panels or to get at the speakers behind walls, anything you can think of that had nothing to do with just riding in the car until the "ride" was done in a minute.
Wish I had David Younger's Theme Park Design & The Art of Themed Entertainment back then. Hell I wish I had come to love Disney parks way back then, I had a starting background in themed attractions.

Just remember all you have to do is outswim one or two of the other people in your cabin. There's probably not 10 gators in there.
Well, according to the late, great Steve Irwin, the only thing that repels an alligator...
...is a bigger alligator.

Shh. It's the new hideout for smoke outs and sharing loose ice! In between of course all the disasters that will befall them as they roast to death in a 5 minute gondola ride ...
