Oh but they did Two in fact. A 12 year old boy and a 40 year old man.I haven't seen the water Mermaid effects active for quite some time. If I had to venture a guess, too many idiots put their hands into the water and they just axed the effect before someone axed a finger. Shame too, that was one of the few changes made to Pirates from the films that I really thought added to the ride.

Ouch.My favorite Jungle Cruise joke, while leaving the dock, to use for a week after that was,
"And we're off like fingers on Pirates of the Caribbean... Google it!"
Do you have pictures of the glass coffin? I haven't been back since this was added in...They added the glass coffin/mermaid aquarium to the beach scene sometime in 2016 which made me think that perhaps those AA's were on their way. That and the new skull shaped rock made me think they still had bigger plans for the scene. Its a shame, since the mermaids would have effectively turned my fear of AA's in water into high-octane nightmare fuel.
That gives the phrase "give them the finger" a whole new meaning...My favorite Jungle Cruise joke, while leaving the dock, to use for a week after that was,

Well it's enjoyable for other people including myself. Who knows. Captain Jack can get into some unexplainable situations!!Never mind the fact that in the movies only Jack himself refers to himself as "Captain" Jack Sparrow or the logic bomb of just "Why are the legal Spanish authorities hiding Captain Jack Sparrow, a notorious pirate who wants to steal THEIR treasure from other pirates who also want to steal their treasure
As for Jones, There is no context for him to be there. In the Disneyland version he serves as a time vortex to transport you back to the golden age of piracy in the Caribbean from the "present" New Orleans Square. In the Florida version there is no time travel and all the events are supposed to be happening at the time you experience them. Having the Davy Jones mist there makes no logical sense and just confuses things.
It appeared on the site we don't speak of back in a the fall, I believe.Do you have pictures of the glass coffin? I haven't been back since this was added in...
Sadly, the only person I know of who photographed it is not on friendly terms with this site.Do you have pictures of the glass coffin? I haven't been back since this was added in...
It was far more enjoyable before 2006.Well it's enjoyable for other people including myself. Who knows. Captain Jack can get into some unexplainable situations!!
That's your opinionIt was far more enjoyable before 2006.
Indeed and quite a few others as well.That's your opinion
To quote "The Road to El Dorado" : BOTH. Both is good. Losing the skull and the barker bird both hurt the attraction, IMHO......or, how about they bring back this guy!?

The Skull just didn't really have any impact in the WDW version though beyond giving you a very brief heads up about the drop in a really goofy voice and his function as a call to adventure pretty much all went to the barker bird anyways.To quote "The Road to El Dorado" : BOTH. Both is good. Losing the skull and the barker bird both hurt the attraction, IMHO.
I can't really say I agree If the logic is that the fort is the same one that is being attacked inside the ride why would there be a Barker Bird there. Same with the talking skull being in the caves which is not haunted in the same way as the DL one, Same issue with Jones and Blackbeard.To quote "The Road to El Dorado" : BOTH. Both is good. Losing the skull and the barker bird both hurt the attraction, IMHO.
The air wasn't stable enough.I'm surprised they didn't put Jones in front of the drop when they did the WDW installation. That would be a fine way to punctuate things.
So that was the original plan? If thats the case it makes the fact that they removed the skull even dumber. I am actually in favor of it's removal because of story reasons but that just seems cheap.The air wasn't stable enough.
