Yikes!
That CM spoke English with an American accent. Surprised he didn't talk to them in French since it was in DLP.
They’re multilingual in DLP.
English is the default in much of the world. I'm always amazed how well different people can communicate while I stammer out a few pidgin word of their language.
People are multilingual almost everywhere across the world, the US being the one exception.
Just because he asked some random cast member for permission, does not mean that cast member was authorized to grant that permission. Very few CM’s have the authority to authorize a guest to go into ‘any’ non guest area of the parks.
Looking like if a CM granted permission to create that magical moment for the guests, it backfired.
My Spanish is a little below conversational but when I spent time traveling in Central and South America I had to sink or swim by speaking the language day in and day out and I improved. The locals even showed appreciation that I always tried to speak conversational Spanish to them even though it wasn’t perfect. Some asked how I learned Spanish I replied living in the USA and practicing Spanish to the many Latinos in my area. They taught me to improve my Spanish , I taught them how to improve their English. Watching the numerous Spanish speaking channels on TV and listening to the conversations , accents and flow helped too.
Disagree. Pyro is stable. If it was that much of a danger, they wouldn't allow even CMs in the area.
Thats irrelevant. If the guest did receive permission, it doesn't matter to said guest if the CM was 'authorized' to do that or not. They asked and were told yes - they don't have to ask if the CM is 'authorized' to tell them yes.
With the camera setup and the swoop by the CM plus the reactions from the "cast" of the vid I really question if any of it was real. Looked produced from beginning to end to me.
Perhaps he just didn't want to have a face to face argument which would take longer to remove the guest, and might result in a physical interaction? Taking the ring was incentive for the guests to follow quickly and quietly, and voice objections when out of the restricted area. And voice their case on the internet. I suspect they got more attention (which was the point of proposing so publically ) because of this than they would have otherwise.
Exactly! If that cast member was there, the 30th show was going on/about to start which is the only reason the gate to that stage was open and a safety issue for them to be there. He had to decide quickly how to respond and since the guests dont always listen at DLP, grabbing the ring was a great way to have them follow him down without a fuss quickly. I don't fault him one bit.
