Undercover Secruity in Disney Parks?

Didn't Al create global warming too.
No. The globe created it.

Now, back to our regularly scheduled thread about secret security in the parks. They aren't doing a very good job, I guess, because they have never caught me adding vod----umm----err----I mean water to my Dole Whips ---ya know-----cause they are so thick. They have to be watered down.

And here we told guests attending my daughter's wedding next week to not bring a flask into the park because we thought security would catch it. Who knew?

I've heard a rumor that Dasani water bottles do not always contain water. I cannot confirm or deny, but always best to utter the following phrase when putting some in your drink: "Wow, this frozen lemonade....Dole Whip, etc... is really thick.....sweet...etc.... I think we need to water it down a bit."
:)

PS - Best wishes to your daughter and your family for an amazing wedding!

Thanks! I'm just hoping the weather cooperates next week, since they are getting married in Italy at 9:00am in the morning and weather reports indicate it will be rather chilly that morning. Disney doesn't provide heaters for outdoors events. As long as it doesn't rain. We had quite some rain yesterday evening.

Not sure if I could convince security that the liquid in my Dasani bottle is water - I think a dark rum would be the perfect thinner for a Dole Whip.... ;)

I was actually standing by someone when an undercover cop asked her to remove the items she had just put in her purse. They are out there.

Yep. Disney deploys a lot of plainclothes security to stop shoplifters.
You can spot them if you pay attention. The last time we were in Uptown Jewelers we were shadowed by a dude in a polo shirt and sunglasses. He just followed my sister around and watched her shop without making direct eye contact. I had my suspicions what he was up to, so I came back about an hour later and he was still in there, obliquely watching someone else.

I was in the middle of a store when an "incident" occurred. Let's just say that several casually dressed individuals quickly appeared, followed shortly by numerous uniformed security and Uniformed police. The speed was beyond amazing.

Funny thing... I was on a Disney cruise a while back. I am a pretty big guy, have short hair, and when I wear my headphones, which are black earbuds, run them down through my t-shirt so they don't get snagged and rip my ears off. On the last night at the cruise, had a couple come up and say they had me pegged all week as undercover security. I just did the shhh sign. They got with the program....

I would assume they have more now after all the tradegy in Paris.


There is threat assesment and prevention and then there is loss prevention - usually two seperate groups.

WDW has had loss prevention teams just about since the parks opened. Most retailers have loss prevention units.

WDW may have a business continuity unit as well (if there is an incident such as a widespread power outage or weather event, they have provisions in place that business can continue)

I am almost always in the parks by myself and I know I have played the part of "Undercover Security" before. If I see something outrageous, dangerous or illegal that I think is possibly being missed by cast members or security (though not likely), I alert CM's. During Disneyland's first 24 hours event back in 2012, I was wearing black pants and a light blue rain jacket due to possibility of rain. When groups of teens started jumping the security lines in mass overwhelming the few CM's on hand to get past the bag check, I merely stood in the open nearby the problem facing them, not saying a word and they immediately stopped. That is their problem if they want to assume. I'm just standing around...

They do a pretty good job at blending in with guests around the parks, but if you look closely enough and know what to watch for, you'll find them. More interested in other people than Mickey Mouse meet and greet or the 90 minute line for Space Mountain.

So like the Disney Secret Serviceeeeeeee??? Saw an older lady actually stop a gentlemen. Not sure what he was doing but I kind of just watched from outside Haunted Mansion while she stopped him, talked to him for a moment, and then led him off somewhere.

Slightly annoying, i mean i totally get not having them on rides but not having them at all is a bit strange.

Lots of dense crowds and a numbnut with a 2 feet extension of their arm is asking for trouble. People can't be trusted for common courtesy or to take care with what they're doing. Extremely annoying during fireworks too.

And how could you possibly control the use of selfie sticks if they were allowed into the parks but not on attractions? They have to stop them at the bag check at the front gate, or else they'd need to have bag check at every attraction.
