We broke down on Jungle Cruise

There are some rides I would love to get stuck on and Jungle Cruise is one, especially if you've got a great skipper. Safari ride would be another.

You seem to be forgetting that on Safari, the animals are real and potentially hungry or angry about having a group of tourist riding through their savanna. At least on Jungle Cruise you can unplug them. On Safari we must look like a buffet to them.

The dangerous predators are in compounds that prevent them from escaping. Only herbavores freely roam the savanna and they are regularly fed.

Although I've wondered how far one of the lionesses could leap from that high rock.

So that happened. It was 95 degrees with no wind blowing whatsoever. However the 2 free fast passes they gave us after the ride more then made up for it! On a side note, our guide Anthony did a fantastic job of entertaining us until we were rescued and towed in!
I have never tried it I heard if you’re on a ride that breaks down you can go to City Hall if you’re in the Magic Kingdom and complain about how long you waited and you will receive a free pass for the next day . Again I don’t know if it’s just a rumor or not.

I'm sure that if someone is self-centered enough and unable to comprehend things like mechanical things break down, then they would bully their way into Guest Services and whine and moan enough to get them to give out a pass just to shut them up and get them out of the building. Lately people are just plain despicable. In the meantime those people have missed out on doing something fun because they were busy whining and moaning. Personally I think that terrorists have already infiltrated our society and have put something in the water that creates stupid. Maybe it's in bottled water! Do we really know where that comes from? I didn't think so.

You don't hear too many stories about Jungle Cruise breakdowns. I wonder what the evac plan is for that attraction if an actual emergency situation arises.
I heard somewhere that they...(wait for it)... drain the swamp.

When one does go 101, it is towed to the dock unloaded and then towed to the service area.
Unless there's a pair of commas in there somewhere, that means everybody WILL get wet!

The hell with the rest of them.... Just Mary Ann would do it for me. Wouldn't even attempt an SOS fire on the beach.

We have similar tastes, by friend!

I had one trip on the Safari where one of the ankoli cattle decided that he (she?) didn't want our truck in his (her?) area, and charged the truck. The driver was watching, and floored it till we were in the clear. But there sure were a lot of freaked out guests!
