Some things you might not know about Disney...

The size of the Kilimanjaro Safari Attraction is so large that if you were given the chance to, you could fit the whole Magic Kingdom in the reserve.


Oh, and the Trucks at Kilimanjaro? They run on Propane. Specifically so the fumes from diesel fuel wouldn't hurt the animals. They even add a smell to the propane so incase of a leak, it will be easy to sniff out.

I didn't know that!

Buy yourself the three Imagineers Guides for MK, EPCOT and DAK, they are small and cheap and very interesting. You can take them with you during a visit, they fit even into small pockets.

Disney security buries the bodies of those who try to sneak a peak at the castle missiles in the HMs "fake" graveyard, and the dye on the turkeylegs is made from blood drained from the corpses. It all akes place in the caves on Tom Sawyers island

The dog featured in the Pirates of the Caribbean ride is the same dog in the Carousel of Progress.


btw, I even read in a book and on the Disney dvd that the castle is not made out of stone, but fiberglass.

I thought they looked alike! Also, I have read and seen videos as well saying the castle has no stones. That's why I'm a little confused!

The Smellitzer

It's call the Smellitzer and the machine had a Disney patent. http://www.solarius.com/dvp/misc/smellitzer.htm

Is that where the "BO" an other noxious smells come from while waiting in line:hurl::hurl::hurl::ROFLOL::ROFLOL:

 

[Montyboy]

i find that very hard to believe. from what i know the great wall in china is the only manmade object visible from the moon, which i also find hard to believe...if anyones even been to the moon....

I hope you are joking.

 

[Pumbas Nakasak]

Maybe not, as the Great wall is not visible, its an urban myth.

The building that hold the American Adventure in Epcot uses four different colors of brick and three shades of white to compansate for the effect of light at different distances to give the building a consistant sillouette.

As you enter the MK (in the AM) the music is all bubbly and bouncy. Later that night, while leaving, the music is changed into slower, more soothing music.

Take a minute to notice this on your next visit. I think it's a very cool effect!

My sister did this:

And she had to take it down the following night:ROFLOL:!!!

When you walk into the Magic Kingdom, you are actually on the second floor. The utiladors (tunnels) are actually on ground level, and serve as a foundation for the whole park.

Mr Toad is buried at HM

Truth. Since Florida doesn't have such a thing as "Basements," we do technically call the tunnels the first floor.

It's as ugly as sin down there too, FYI, Haha.

Yeah... gum is not sold ANYWHERE on Disney property... not even the gas stations!

Actually having worked on Main Street - that's not totally true. They do play the same music throught the day and night. But at night, the volume is just turned down a bit.

 

[DonChi]

In Epcot, they had plans of making Spain, Africa (or South Africa) and Israel pavilions.

 

[Kingdom WDW]

Where's Martin when you need him. :lol:

 

[EPCOT Explorer]

EPCOT is not boring.
