I never heard of this, but it sounds pretty cool. But I have no info to offer other than an opinion because I am wayyyyy to young to remember life in the 70s. even the 80s, and the first time I ever remember riding the JC was in 2001, so I wouldnt know. But it doesnt sound like something that happened though. Are you sure you weren't someplace else? I mean, 14 is old enough to remember quite vividly, its not like you were 3 or something. But I heard when you get old you tend to forget and mismatch things, no offense. :lookaroun
Oh yea, if it did happen the rocks falling thing sounds cool.

I cant believe this arguement, I mean discussion, has gotten so far. With all the knowledge of our beloved kingdom on these boards, he still wont take no for an answer. I have this question for him. If the rocks fell at the mouth of the temple tunnel, how the hell does the boat get out of the tunnel?

I hate to break it to ya, but its not uncommon for men your age to get faulty memories. I should know, my dad is your age and he can't remember any of the names of his teachers from high school.

Alright, I know this would NEVER happen nowadays (right JC skippers?), but I've read that back in the day, it wasn't too uncommon for cast members to sneak backstage and mess with the skippers during the show/ride.
I know it's a long shot, but maybe someone smuggled a King Louie costume and was messing around when you were on it? As for the falling rocks, I have no idea.
I know how it's like to remember something that everyone insists never happened. To this day I'm certain that the elevator car on ToT peeked out over the park just a little bit when it first opened...
And please, everyone just let that comment be. There's a whole thread on that subject if you really feel like commenting.

All my illusions dashed around here . . . next thing you're going to tell me is that the Castle wasn't really transported brick by brick from Latveria.
No that's Wayne Manor. Which is coincidently by a lot of big trees.

Can the OP possibly clear up a few things about the above statement:
1. Was King Louie a "full size" character? Was he a AA?
2. What music played? Was it Jungle Book music?
3. Who had the "discussion"?
4. Was the rock effect like BTMRR?
Just thought clearing these items up might help some folks who are really "in the know" around here.

Maybe it was another park that said the monkey in the temple in their ride was King Louie.:shrug:

I can vividly recall going to Sea World in Aurora, OH when I was 8. The seal area was an enormous mountain with a sliding board for the seals and some fountains and waterfalls. I went back in my teens and it was just a few rocks and a pool. They didn't change anything, I just, like Bush, misremembered.

I have the SAME mismemory from the same park, when I was 8! How funny. Too bad that park's gone.

I think it would be great if we did a thread like that - best misremembered, unprovable Disney memory. Since I know I have a few, too. Stuff I just remember as totally different than actually happened.

I have this memory of an amusement park in Nashville TN right next to the Gaylord Opryland hotel. Yet when I went back many years later I found a mall. I asked the teenager parking attendant at the hotel what happened and they just gave me a blank stare*.
* - Actually, I full well know what happened. And the real story is I took some relatives to see the hotel, and on our way out the parking attendant asked if we had a nice time, to which I responded "Yeah, it was alright. Would have been better if there was an amusement park next door to visit". She just gave a half-amused smile.
