#ProvostParkPass #Disneyland
#GreatMoments
I find myself watching every video PPP puts out. At first, it was the penny press and pin trading videos that lured me into being a follower of this channel.
Then the next period of content kept me coming back, I call this the FUN PPPERIOD. During this time, the Matterhorn Macaron and Churro challenge were a fun expansion of content, and it was the relatability of Chris and the family that made me want to support this channel beyond subscribing and providing thumbs up. When I met the Provost family by chance at the park, and realized that they are the kindest folks in the parks, my family joined me in my love for the PPP channel too. Unfortunately, with COVID, Disney RUclipsr gossip and scandals, and the end of the annual passes, the FUN PPPERIOD had to come to an end. It's not their fault, it was just the medium and resources changing. Through adversity, PPP persevered the hard times, kept refining the craft, and came out puns-a-blazing.
I was concerned that the videos would become stale and content would be regurgitated and repackaged for newer audiences, or the viewership would get cannibalized by the algorithm. Years later, and with many changes at the parks, entertainment, and our nation's cultural and political climate, Provost Park Pass has persevered as one of the leading voices of theme parks. While other channels have survived with strong persona (Justin Scarred), hot takes on the business of theme parks (Adam The Woo), variety of theme parks (The Carpetbagger), positive interaction with cast members and food reviews (Ordinary Adventures), and unbelievable deep dives into Disney meta theories (Offhand Disney), this channel is the only one that accomplishes strengths from all these amazing channels in a comforting and easy to digest format.
Today, I find that the current videos have truly broken into original and trailblazing territory. The history and knowledge demonstrated in the Secrets Revealed videos have always been my favorite, but lately the life affirmations, and the depth of the knowledge of details from the parks is absolutely exceptional and have set this channel apart as the cream of the crop. Please continue to lead the space, PPP.
The reason why I have finally typed this all out in a comment today was because, like PPP, I have seen the Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln countless times. I did not know that there were Frederick Douglass artifacts in the waiting room of the Opera House, and the simple 'I concur' and signature from Lincoln on the freedom papers are simply earth shatteringly rare and beautiful details that set Disneyland as one the best places to find inspiration and courage to keep our spirits up. Moments like these are what keep me tuned in, and make me excited to go to the parks again and again. Thank you, Provost Park Pass. You make the world a better place, and hold me to a standard where I can help me do my part to make the world better. YOU ARE AWESOME!
Mr Johnson, I concur with you! Your eloquence and appreciation for PPP is so justified. When listening to Abraham Lincoln saying those words, I was thinking that they are as relevant today, if not more so. In these turbulent and divided times it's easy to get depressed but Chris is always there to give us encouragement by telling us that we are amazing and awesome. Thank you Mr Johnson and a big thank you to Chris and family at Provost Park Pass for being the kind people you are Thank you for being funny, thank you for being "punny", thank you for loving history and thank you for your love of everything Disney. Chris, you and your family are amazing!!
Wow! This message is so beautiful, kind, and thoughtful. We appreciate that you took the time to write this. You truly touched our hearts. Thank you so much. YOU just made our world a better place. 💚💙
Aaron, wow, you are awesome and we could not say it any better. Thank you for your heart-filled comment.
Spoiler Alert! Another amazing Provost Park Pass video! I've been visiting the Disneyland Resort since 1956, but didn't know the story of Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln. Thank you Chris.
That Frederic Douglas exhibit is awesome! Thanks for showing this to all of us. 👍👍👍
Chris,I thought The Capital was made of heavy cardboard. Thanks for the fact, I hope I can impress my friend next time I visit. 😉
Chris, we are always grateful to have you as our Disney teacher, but today you are our American History teacher, and we're especially blessed!
Thank you so much for all of the heart you put into this video. This is absolutely one of my favorite attractions. I recently had the thought that it would be so fun if it got the Provost Park Pass treatment, but since they discourage filming in there, I thought it wasn't possible. Imagine my joy to see this video available! You definitely did this attraction justice, as I knew you would. Makes me proud to be an American, as well as proud to know you, my friend.
Thank You for sharing behind the scenes this was very informative and educational. This was a Great stream, vlog. GREAT Channel.
Congrats Chris, Disney trusted the right person for this job!
Love the video. Though I do wonder if it is time for Disney to update "spirit of tolerance." "Spirit of Community" and "Spirit of Brotherhood" were ideas that popped up for me.
Maybe the category still applies, but in my mind, the icons in this section have transcended being merely tolerated.
Great video as always! Great Moments with Mr/ Lincoln is my favorite show at Disneyland because, like Walt, I also have a great personal admiration for Abraham Lincoln. I always do that show several times every time I go to Disneyland. It’s such a great show!
Also the “Millinery” right by the “Employee Only” door pay homage to the mill workers. ❤
Thank you very much for talking about Fredrick Douglass (not "Douglas" with one s). He should be talked about and studied in our public schools every bit as much as other well-known historical figures in our nation's history. I appreciate you, Chris!
Chris thanks for showing such great insight into this often overlooked attraction. Who knows, with this awesome video you may make this attraction so popular it will someday require a Genie+ reservation! 😉
When I was there in 2018, they played Steve Martin's Disneyland: The First 50 Magical Years on loop in the pre-show room as something to watch in between shows. Also, this whole attraction including the framed photos as you exit got me really emotional. Just being surrounded by so much rich American history got my waterworks going. It was hard to hold back the tears 🥹 I had to go listen to the Battle Hymn of The Republic after watching this video. I'm going back to Disneyland again all next week. I can't wait to visit Lincoln again! Great stuff as always, Chris! You were absolutely deserving of the special access 🫡
Great video!!! Our family spent quite a bit of time here on our last visit (the kids eventually dragged me out - lol). It was wonderful! The Haunted Mansion artwork was on exhibit at the time.
I’m so glad you were able to respectfully film it to share it with us! We were asked not to, of course (and the Cast Members actually parked inside to check if we were obeying the rules halfway through).
I talked with her after the show, and she gave us a lovely tour of the entire opera house! Between you and that Cast Member, I feel like I’ve learned so much! So thank you.
(She got a Cast Member Compliment - you get a comment and a 👍)!
This was so well done Chris! Thank you for all of the amazing work that you do & your positive & uplifting messages!
I've been waiting for this one! Thank you for doing such a nice job covering one of my favorite attractions. We still have the LP I received as a Christmas gift when I was seven or eight. They also released a CD of Walt Disney at the World's Fair that has the original show and some recording sessions with Royal Dano and Walt Disney.
this was a great video. now imagine if the animatronic Abraham Lincoln yelled out PARTY ON DUDES, now they would really lose their minds
Great video Chris, I’m old enough to remember the opening of great moments with Mr. Lincoln and it’s always been a favorite I wish I could press the like button twice
Great job Chris! Always revealing new secrets
Chris, thank you so much for showcasing Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln!! This is one of my favorite attractions at Disneyland! I’m a huge history buff and President Lincoln is one of my favorites!! You made my week showing this and it’s my favorite Provost Park Pass episodes ever!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Congratulations, Chris!
This is your best video yet! Naomi Daisy's comment (below) is spot on. I have one minor correction: Originally there actually was a ticket for Great Moments With Mr. Lincoln..... it was a complimentary ticket at the beginning of each ticket book, with a personal invitation from Walt Disney!
This attraction inspired me to create a movie (8mm in 1970 with sound on reel to reel tape) in junior high school, and sculpt a bust of Walt Disney himself!
Thank you for your passionate and inspirational videos about Disneyland!
Today was the best video yet. Thanks for the memories and information that I didn’t know. Outdid yourself!
Thank you 🙏 so much for always adding you’re encouraging words within your videos. Please know that my family and I think YOU are AMAZING and love all you bring to our Disneyland experience! I hope one day to run into you at the Park! Stay positive and remember there are friends all around you who dearly and deeply appreciate you ! 🎈
I saw Great Moments for the first time 50 years ago when I was 5 years old, and it made such an impression on me that I became a lifelong Lincoln buff. Thank you Chris for posting this history of such an important part of my life!
I love the Mr. Lincoln show. It’s my favorite. Thanks Chris
My mother used to tell me about how people were so amazed when the animatronic stood up from the chair during this show. I don't remember actually seeing it, but I'm sure I was taken in the theater at a young age to see it.
Man Mr. Disney thought of everything. So ahead of the game and his time.
Thank you for this. You and your videos are appreciated too. 🤗
I never noticed that Paul Frees is doing the narration. Fantastic video, as always.
My wife was a huge Lincoln fan as well, and even though we never had a chance to visit Disneyland before she passed away, I played an older RUclips video for her of the Lincoln segment (I think it was from LMG). She said that when we got to Disneyland she wanted to go to see Lincoln first thing. When I was little (in the 60s), I would sit up front, not because I was a Lincoln fan but because I read he was a "robot" in National Geographic. I was mesmerized by the detail.
Saw it years ago it has always been on of my favorite attraction at Disneyland.
LOVE YOUR CHANNEL CHRIS! it’s always so much fun to watch your videos, especially since i’m counting down the days till i go to Disney!!! are you guys planning a trip anytime between 12/18-21?!?! that’s when i’ll be there with my family and i would LOVE to meet you guys!
Chris you are becoming the disney history guy now…love it! Thanks for the content
Chris I came to appreciate this president he's such an amazing individual. Not much schooling and yet he was able to get the highest position in the nation. As well as pushed the nation through a turmoil time. I understand why Mr. Disney picked him. MY FAVORITE PLACE
Great video! I love all the additional information you give otherwise I would walk on by and not know the meaning of things! Like Frederick Douglass! Visiting the park tomorrow and will for sure stop by and take my time! Thanks again
Chris, my Daughter designed Hondo and after showing her your video, she had a big smile on her face. Thank you as those are the warm fuzzies Imagineers get!
Oh my GOSH!! That is so cool. 💚💙💚💙💚💙🥰
My ancestor was Ab Lincoln's law partner and friend. He actually wrote his biography. I'm going to check this out now.
Great video! Thanks for highlighting this attraction, I feel bad it doesn’t get as much attendance as the other attractions and love the Fredrick Douglass addition. It’s my mom’s favorite so we always check it out every trip.
To add to the story of the extremely funny Lucille Ball, she is the reason that Star Trek was ever made. As the head of Desilu studio, she saw the quality of the show and gave the go ahead to produce the show.
I just heard about Lucille Ball's contribution to Star Trek on Aaron Mahnke's podcast, Cabinet of Curiosities! Thanks for sharing it here!
EXCELLENT presentation Chris!! I really enjoyed seeing the new displays.
Thank you Chris for this amazing video.
You are an amazing !
You missed the best best Era of the attraction when it was "The Road to Gettysburg" in the early 2000's. You were a Union Soldier who went to the Gettysburg Address. You wore headphones and they gave you a haircut, it was awesome. Didn't last that long though. That was back in the day when you could buy a premium annual pass for $399.. those were the days. Thanks for all your videos and always being so nice to us in the parks when we stop and bug you.
The 12 Spirit statues are copies of life-sized statues that line the theater walls at Epcot's The American Adventure. The original show had a very long ending that included Mark Twain and Ben Franklin introducing each of the statues. After the high of the "Golden Dream" montage, it was a real show-killer, and was thankfully scrapped. If you watch, though, the statues still get a subtle, but respectful highlight at the end of the show.
YES!!! I noticed that too!!
Thanks for posting this, my son and I were there in May for Star Wars Celebration, and crammed both parks in one park hopper day. We couldn’t see everything, but got Galaxy’s Edge and Haunted Mansion as well as Indiana Jones in Disneyland…
You are so well-loved by all, including DISNEY, they should hire you for a very important, very high-paying job!!! (Like maybe a replacement for Bob)
My girls and I absolutely adore Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln. The first time we saw it (Oct. 2021) my 10 year old cried. She was very moved
Oh man, I am so sad I didn't know about the papers. I would have love to see all that on one of my many tips to Disneyland over the past year. So sad I missed all that. Really, they couldn't find a better place to put the press penny machine. Thank you, that was awesome. I am so shocked you got permission to film in there. Well done. Thank you.
Thank you Chris for this. I have been a big fan of Great moments most of my life...I was9or 10 the first time I saw it and I was just amazed. Now at 68 I still go when I am there and it is very moving
This was beautifully done. I couldn't help but cry when you shared Douglas's papers signed by Lincoln. Thank you.
Thank you Chris for those wonderful video on president Lincoln if some of our presidents today would listen to what a Lincoln said maybe our world wouldn't be so bad the politicians now care nothing about the people but by their self only God Bless America
My favorite video is always the newest 😊 thank you for the history and thoughtful commentary ❤️
Thank you again for caring about us as people. I could probably Google it, but are those statues behind you at the end smaller versions of the statues at the American Adventure in Epcot?
My favorite show at Disneyland, next to the Train around Disneyland
I disagree with you about not having a ticket for having a ticket for Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln. When you purchased a ticket book you also received a special ticket for Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln and Travel through Inner Space. The model of the Capitol Building was behind President Lincoln. I have been and enjoyed Great Moments with Mr Lincoln many times. I have seen this show change over the years. Sally Ride was the first American Woman in Space. The first Woman was the Soviet Cosmonaut was Valentina Tereshkova who flew into space on July 16 1963 onboard Vostok 6 for Three days.
I definitely remember that every ticket book had a special ticket in front just for Great Moments With Mr. Lincoln. I don't recall a similar ticket for Adventure Through Inner Space, though perhaps that was done for a more limited time. (It's true that the ride did nor require a ticket for the first several years of operation.)
This was a great video, Chris! I haven't been in the attraction itself in so many years. I'll have to check it out again! I do love checking out whatever displays they have in the building, though. What a great display!
What if you're not amazing, but you're perfectly OK with not being amazing?
How about some love for us mediocre people, Chris.
Chris! Wow! So happy I saw this before my arrival for 5 days of Disneyland fun next week. Had planned to see, but for sure will be looking for Frederic Douglass exhibit items. Thank you!!!
Thank you Chris for yet another amazing video! Wow, so much I've missed in all the times I've visited. Will be heading down (from Chico) again Dec 6-9 since fire season is over with now. Can't wait to check this all out again while I'm down there. Thank you again and for all you do for everyone! FYI, you to are an absolutely wonderful and loved person along with the rest of your family! Hope to actually run into you guys one day to meet you.
Your friend in Disney,
Mark
I’ve only been to Disneyland once (Disney World Is closer) but I wish I’d seen this show as it look amazing. 🇮🇲
I remember my Dad telling me when I was a wee lad that he remembers "Abraham Lincoln" getting up from his chair and walking around (LOL) but over the years I have asked friends, who are my age (51), if their parents told them the same thing and they said yes. Thought it was weird until you realize that nobody had seen anything like this before and our parents had to have seen it when they were really young as well so it must've made a huge impression on children back in the day.
AL spend his his childhood and teenage years in Indiana . We visited Lincoln State Park where his Mother is buried.
I wish I had seen this before we were there last week. I missed a lot of what you pointed out in this video, including President Lincoln's signature! Great job revealing all the details of this incredible attraction!
Thank you for this very informative piece on Great Moments With Mr. Lincoln. Beautifully done. Slight historical correction: the very first audio-animatronic show was the Enchanted Tiki Room which opened in 1963 at Disneyland. Mr. Lincoln opened in 1964 at the New York Worlds Fair, along with the animatronic shows Carousel of Progress, It’s a Small World and the dinosaurs in the Ford exhibit. But of course, Mr. Lincoln was by far the most complex figure at that time.
Well done. Another fine video! Thank you.
I remember in the 90’s the pre show for that show had an owl. I’ve told my dad a few times but he said he doesn’t remember. If you can find any info on that pre show I would love to show my dad.
I was blessed by my daughters and wife to spend 3 days by myself in Disneyland and California Adventure for my 50th birthday. I made sure Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln was the first attraction of my adventure! I tell all my friends that go to Disneyland that they MUST see it!
Thank you Chris. Love learning new things
Who is Steve?
I really enjoyed this video, you did an excellent job! Thank you.
They should have someone reading that screen to you. But I bet they don't have anyone who can read that fast.
Fantastic presentation Chris-and thank you for your words of encouragement. Glad to see that your patience paid off, with permission to record inside the Opera House. Job well done!✨
Thank you so much for doing this! I heard Lincoln had a high-pitched voice but I'm not sure how true that is lol
Thank you so much Chris for this amazing tribute video. Mr. Lincoln has always been my favorite attraction. I often go into the lobby just to listen to the music. The last two times I've gone into the show, I was the only one in the theater. It's a little sad too because this is such an amazing show. In my own small way, I teach Civil war history to school kids (and sometimes their parents) My love for the time period starting with seeing Mr. Lincoln with my Grandparents. Thank you again for showcasing this amazing piece of Disney history...
As you can tell, I think the show is amazing because I used the word multiple times. lol...
Lincoln was the first
HUMAN Audio Animatronic.
The Tiki birds were the first successful application of the technology. 1963.
I was just watching I Love Lucy The Christmas Show
Lincoln's hair is too long, I remember this was my favorite attraction to visit but the updated version has his hair too long for him in his whole life time you could always see his ear and it was kept short it now is too long but I am glad you got to show everyone this amazing attraction.
Legend has it that the first animatronic of Lincoln used red hydraulic fluid. And one time a tube sprung a leak and the red fluid started to spread across Lincoln’s shirt. The audience was horrified, thinking that Disney was re-creating the assassination! After that incident, Walt insisted, they develop clear hydraulic fluid for the animatronics! And as you know, Disney Legend, Bob Gurr designed the original engineering for Mr. Lincoln, which set the standard for all future animatronics.
What?!? This is amazing.
Hello Good Sir
We love Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln. I love Walt's devotion to American history and his passion to perpetuate it. His interest rubbed off on me - what I'm sure he hoped would happen to all of us. It worked with me. I'm fascinated by the detail that went the creation of his first animatronic. How indebted we are to Walt for this art form. Thank you for seeing and perpetuating Walt's vision. If he were alive, he would thank you. And as you know, he didn't thank people often....
Thank you, Chris, for this incredible video! Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln is such an emotionally moving show that I highly recommend for everyone. Walking out of the show with tears streaming down my face, I felt the most American, and the most proud to be American, in my life. Thank you for teaching us about all the amazing details, exhibits, and history surrounding this show 💙💚
I am from central Illinois and if you are ever in Springfield Illinois, visit the Abraham Lincoln museum and Library. It is very cool and I heard Disney helped with development of the museum.
Chris, thank you so much for being the messenger and bringing this to us, such a rare thing for so many to be able to see including myself. Secondly I want to extend my gratitude to Disney for inviting you in to a previously undocumentable area of the park so that we can see and experience
Wow! Fredrick Douglas freedom papers signed by Pres. Lincoln!
You'd think something like that would be in the Smithsonian!
Next time im at Disneyland, I will drop by Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln
Thank you 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
I love this video, but the words were spoken like he meant it before the remodel!
not the first animatronic, first full sized human animatronic. The first human animatronic would actually be project little man, and then the mary poppins bird, and the prototype birds for the tiki room predated Lincoln, which is why MAPO existed as such.
The announcer says "first human audio animatronic" which is a very specific thing because that's true because audio refers to the control system which is no longer used anymore though. The first human animatronic is project little man though but used a more tradition mechanical cam control system, and the first audio animatronics were birds.
Also the current Lincoln isnt an "audio animatronic" hes a "digital animatronic". his control system since the 70's has been DACS, "Digital Animation Control System".
Is he an A100 animatronic, the same as Hondo?
@@pault5557 Hondo is a1000, I believe Lincoln is still a a100. He and the tech around him was started in 2015 and revealed with him in 2019 and they created a lot of different sized figures using the tech that he uses. Hondo was a big step forward they really showed him off.
Yay! It’s Chris! 💙 💚👨🏫 WDW is my home park, but I just visited DL and finally saw Great Moments With Mr. Lincoln and did the tour that showed Walt’s Apartment! It was truly a great experience!🎩🥰🥳🎉 Thank you for this video!
President Lincoln is my very favorite! Years ago I got to visit Great moments with Mr. Lincoln. Very impressive! Thank you Chris, I hope everyone visits with Mr. Lincoln. It’s a treasure trove of our history. 😊
✨🙌✨
I was 7 years old the year this opened and I remember being amazed by it. I went home and tried to make President Lincoln out of toilet paper rolls and craft paper using string to make the arms move. I remember my parents couldn't get over the fact that his fingers moved during the show. Great memories.
Thank you for sharing your wonderful memory. 💚💚💙💙
Watched this show for 1st time in 40 years on November 8th, 2022(storm day at Disneyland) still amazing. A must for all to see. Thank you for this video.
Hey Chris, you do realize that Sally Ride was not the first American into space, she was however the first female American in space.
Correct. 💚💙
This was so well done and such great information. You are amazing Chris. Thank you for all the details. AMAZING.
Thank you for this. So many guests overlook the Opera House and all the Disney and US history on exhibit there. I first saw Great Moments With Mr. Lincoln in 1967. His words are (again) timely at this point in the life of our nation.
The small “Spirit of . . .” statues are the study models of life-size statues that are displayed in the American Adventure pavilion at Epcot.
I saw the show with Mr. Lincoln in 1965 as a kid. My mind was totally blown. I knew he was dead but I saw him alive. I saw him breathing. My head was spinning trying to understand. When he stood up I was speechless. It was the most amazing thing I had ever seen. Every time I visit Disneyland, I see the show again and love it but that first time was a moment I will never forget. Totally amazing.
1965 was my first time at Disneyland. That first day I went on the Matterhorn bobsleds five times as my favorite ride - an E ticket
Wow, Chris, this is fantastic. We are so happy they let you film this, and we have learned so much from you. This is where we go to relax, well Aimee and the kids do. Sunny loves the history that is displayed. American history always gives me chills. Thank you so much for this video. It is Awesome, and you are also awesome.
I really loved this video ! I was 13 in 1968 when I first visited Disneyland, My parents took us to see Great Moments with Abraham Lincoln and I was amazed with everything I learned. Seeing him speaking was like seeing him as if he was there. I love all the interesting facts you shared. We were at Disneyland recently and this was the first thing we did. Every time I hear Mr Lincoln speak, I am inspired. It is good you made more people aware of how great this exhibit is. I think every child should see this.
Thanks for doing this video. We tried to make time for this in October and somehow we just never had enough time! First world problem for sure. Lol
That is one of my favorite quotes of all time, "If destruction be our lot then we ourselves must be its author and finisher" and it is more true now then ever. THanks
That was really cool! Lincoln has always been my favorite president!
If you watch my videos, you'll see Disneyland as a Winter Wonderland
That's funny.... RUclips has many videos that were recorded inside of Great Moments with Mr Lincoln, all of which were done without permission
Quincy!! Always love your comments. 💚💙💚💙
@@provostparkpass Always love your videos and replies! Thank you sir!!
One of my favorite videos that you have done Chris 🇺🇸😎
Thank you so much ❤ This is great - I love your videos
