The last time we saw it in 2019 one of the crew gave my daughter his lanyard with IJ Crew on it, very cool of them
That’s awesome!
That is awesome
I got a pair of the actors gloves and a signature I have proof imgur.com/gallery/4IdB4pv
Since it's close to Halloween, how about a look back at the "Alfred Hitchcock: The Art of Making Movies" walkthrough at Universal Studios?
And don't forget Flight of Fear!
And Beetlejuice's Graveyard Revue, if you don't mind. Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice!
Defunctland has a great episode on Alfred Hitchcock. You should check it out.
Had a great experience on this late Sept 2019. The show ended and we're at Gertie's having ice cream. The German mechanic comes walking by wearing (basically) the same thing he wears in the show with a jacket over it. Despite being the same cast member that 2,000 people just saw and still in costume, no one recognized him. You could tell he was just trying to make his way to Hollywood Blvd as quick as he could without being noticed. We didn't want to out him, but when he made eye contact with everyone in our group looking at him he knew that we knew who he was. Someone in my group yelled "How did you survive?" and he just smiled and said "I'm faster than I look" and kept going.
Ironic, because I know him, or at least, my mom does. He's one of my mom's friend's hubbies. He may be a relative, though, unsure, since it's super early in the morning, I'd have to fact-check.
@@AMan-dt4dh No kidding? That's great! Really tall guy with a beard? Would have been late Sept 2019 but I've seen him there since at least Jan 2019 as well. Cool dude. Made our day.
@@fifthrider Yeah, he's the guy with a beard. It's pretty crazy to think of, but I asked about it, though it's so indirect, I doubt they would know us.
This is one of the few shows that is truly timeless in my opinion, I hope this will stay in this theater for a long time
The part where the truck flips over and "explodes", the stuntwoman playing Marian is actually never inside the truck. You can see a bunch of crates near the truck bed after it flips over and while the crew is extinguishing the flames (and creating a smokescreen), the stuntwoman secretly emerges from inside one of the crates and miraculously bursts through the smoke. It's a neat trick, provided the crew doesn't skimp on the extinguishers like they did when I was there!

That classic opening! The choregraphy/stunts changed since then.
Reminds me of my internship with WDI and one of the stuntmen taking time off to talk with me after a show in relation to the LMA stunts back then. Really kind people.
I got to work this show till March 2020 on my DCP!! Kevin is an amazing guy and was super kind to us. Fun fact, he also trains a lot of the current Indy's as well as being apart of the show! Also for the 30th anniversary of the show, he performed his role as Indy and did the first scene, rope drop and all, so it's nice to know he's still got it haha!
Each one of the cast members on our last day (and as of writing this the show's last day) were so kind to each of us. They're like a huge family and are super close to each other and to many of the cast who help as ushers. I'm so happy that several of those stunt men and women were able to find work at Universal's new stunt show The Bourne Stuntacular. Here's hoping they can get back to Disney real soon! Great video!!!
First saw this show as kid in 1990, and finally got to bring my kids back in 2016 and 2018 to see it.
This show never needs to change. On it's 50th viewing it's still as phenomenal as the first.
My favorite attraction at that park. I finally got picked as an extra in 2010 and I was thrilled. Darn it I missed that special crossover. I was there in June and in October in 2010.
It's on RUclips somewhere
Would love to know who holds the record for being an, "extra." I've been twice, but the were 10 years apart. Someone out there has to have an insane record.
This show was what got me into the franchise and perhaps action movies in general.
I remember watching the halftime show where they rolled out rolling ball show elements with Indiana jones grabbing the super bowl trophy instead of the idol. I thought it was awesome!!!
Oh man, I SHOULD have included that somewhere in this video, what a missed opportunity!
Well here’s hoping the stunt show can exist for 30 more years to come!!
I remember being a part of the stunt show with my wife on our honeymoon in 2004.
I hope that he keeps making these amazing informational video for years to come
YES! This show opened the year and month I was born :D Always been a favorite and a must see whenever I go to WDW.
18:25 Never before has applause looked this authentic.
I get so pumped for these stunt show break downs. Stuntaculars are life
Great episode! Didn't know about the Star Wars crossover!
Critical Reviews Yeah! I want a STAR WARS stunt show that features stunts and moments from the STAR WARS movies!
I was casted as an extra a few years ago and it was literally the most confusing experience of my entire life. The sound was very clearly oriented torwards the bleechers and I still have no idea what happened or what I did during the show. Honestly, it doesn’t even matter, I CAN FOREVER SAY I WAS A PART OF IT AND THAT ENOUGH FOR ME 🎉
My aunt and uncle often play the director and assistant during this show 🥰
I got picked to be an "extra" in this show a few years ago...had a lot of fun doing it...after we were done our part they gave us water in a paper cup lol
I was finally able to visit walt disney world last year and this stunt show was my absolute favorite in the Hollywood studio park!
I'm not first,I'm not last, but when I see a Theme Park History video I click fast
TPH saving my covid blues
The stage show has always been my favorite thing to do at Disney! Thanks so much for the video! Still sounds weird not calling it MGM studios!
Mission: SPACE? When?
I love this show so much!!
Such a great channel... Thank you for this amazing videos and all the research behind it. I look forward to watch more
Best stunt show at any park!
Back in the 90s (I was 19 or 20), I got picked to be an extra. I was one of the "screamers". Back then I was able to let out this ear-shattering "wake the dead" shriek. I remember the "casting director" was all "Who was that?! GET HER UP HERE!!" It was a lot of fun to do. I got a photo of me somewhere on the stage, in costume.
Where's the part where Indiana Jones hides in a lead lined fridge?
Lead lined*
We're still stuck in Raiders. That hadn't happened yet 😂
Nah crystal skull sucks
@max Carroll nah
@@crazyfire9470 yes it does
I actually have a friend who played the German Mechanic back in like 2016. Great guy and gave me a small crash course in stage/screen combat
I just realized that my friend is actually the demolitions expert at 12:49
Wow!
This was a great feature of the old MGM. It was still fun as Hollywood Studios but not as cavalier as the original days. Great memories!
18:24 the mashup show was well received
*Cuts to George Lucas questioning why he gave Disney the rights to do this show*
The last time I saw this stunt show was in 2016 and I loved it
I love this show during my trip to Hollywood studios
Before the lockdown
That Star Wars crossover would be so cool.
This needs to come back!
Can you do a theme park history on muppet vision 3D or it’s tough to be a bug
Imma be honest I forgot muppet vision existed. I love that thing
Or both
Yes!! Please!
Two major changes were done in the show, 1. The removed all Nazi symbols (obvious reasons) 2. When on the final roof they originally used a zip line down instead of jumping off the roof.
I love these videos I don't even ride roller coasters
Please do Loch Ness Monster at Busch Gardens Williamsburg and The Beast at Kings Island!
Loch Ness Monster was the first major coaster I ever rode. It was great.
But can we talk about how cute Kermit was in that little clip! "This is a play gun, it's all make believe!"
It's not one attraction in particular, but I'd like to see you covering a Belgian Theme Park, I think we (as a country) are greatly overlooked when it comes to theme parks.
Love it! That’s just old school cool. Back when you paid for a ticket to entertainment. Nowadays, the majority of your time is waiting in line. Thanks for covering this!!!
I'll be goddamned.... you finally did it
Thank you guys
Can you please cover on a video about the history of Honey, I Shrunk the Audience at Epcot/Disneyland/Tokyo Disneyland/Disneyland Paris?
Love that show so awesome been in it twice
Woah, I was just watching another one of your video’s and then you post this 20 minutes ago. What a coincidence.
Can you please cover on two videos about the history of these two attractions at Disney’s Hollywood Studios in Florida: Voyage of The Little Mermaid and The Hunchback of Notre Dame: A Musical Adventure?
Yay new video great vidoe tph! I love this show and I love Indiana Jones it’s such a good show!
Always been a fan of your videos. I didn't feel so much history or background of the show.But... great job as always
You used so many clips from all kinds of shows! Thank you for helping us remember all of the people that make this show spectacular :D
Auzrill it’s the same show, just different runs of it. They all follow the same script and events, he even explained that the actors cycle.
@@rosariobono438 I'm aware :) I've been a tech at that show for the last 5 years.
After seeing this attraction for the first time as a kid, I immediately popped in my dad’s copy of Raiders when I returned home
So my parents took my siblings and I to Disney for my 5th birthday. We went to Disney MGM. I, at the time, was afraid of everything including my shadow. I’ve been told that in the part where the boulder rolls out (iconic, I know)…… I got up from my seat…… and ran for the emergency exit, screaming that the boulder was gonna crush us all.
Who provided the voice of the voice double in this episode?
Can you do the history of jurassic world the ride
little bum it’s pretty simple. “Universal closes the fantastic Jurassic Park ride. A few weeks later, the ride is reopened as a lazily made piece of shit”
Obsidian Mother calm down son it a work in progress not a da Vinci perfection
Last time I saw was 2017 on honeymoon, 2010 before that and the guy playing Indy gave me his fedora
0:14 Kermit with a gun is the most scariest thing I've seen
can you do the history of the timekeeper?
I can easily see Disney using these stunt show ideas, for an Avengers/Marvel related show.
Love this vid!! I worked this attraction for a couple years! I was just one of the normal cast members though
0:10 Kermit: Please don't! I have a bad back!
You should do The Great Movie Ride next
I really need to go to Hollywood studios before this closes
Please do a video on Mission to Space 😍
Pancak3s12 mission space not mission to space
I would love to see one on Muppet Vision 3D!
Saw this show last week, they don't choose extra's anymore but apart from that nothing else seemed to have changed after its long closure.
I loved the muppets at Disney!
DAM....Just went I need you. You post ALWAYS ON TIME 👍
Whenever I watched this show, I always tried to scan through the audience to look for the loudest-dressed person sitting there. 9 out of 10 times, that person was picked as an Extra and turned out to be the stuntman plant.
One on waterworld would be great
Awesome! I caught your new video on my break. Cool! Hopefully one day we'll get Adventure Thru Inner Space, America Sings, Spaceship Earth, Journey Into Imagination, and even Muppet Vision 3D
The History of Millennium Force!
Do the TRON roller coaster or Jurassic world the ride next plz!
TRON there isn’t much history for the tron ride. And Jurassic world isn’t even the original name
Oh this was quite the interesting experience right here. Now with Halloween season upon us, I am eager to see what you will cover this time that is scary and interesting.
This attraction opened to coincide with the release of The Last Crusade!
This was amazing! Thank you for doing these videos I love TPH! Could you do Haunted Mansion next??
Phenomenal stuff man, this show is by far the best at Hollywood Studios and a personal favorite of mine, can you do Haunted Mansion next?!?!?! that would be insane that's the greatest dark ride in the world.
I went in 2019 and got to be an extra! Went again back in February of 2020 and I noticed that Indy didn’t come from the ceiling at the start and they didn’t do the truck exploding scene with Marion “inside” of it. I recall it being a somewhat windy day. Were they executing an alternate version due to said winds? The truck explosion I recall is staged as a pick up shot. I suppose they were concerned the wind might blow the smoke and fire in a direction they weren’t comfortable with controlling.
it's crazy how each of these shows are still being sold out daily to this day
Yes😀
I saw that show in 2012 and 2016!
Keeping with the MGM/Hollywood Studios theme, how about a History of The Citizens of Hollywood?
Do lights motor action extreme stunt show!!!
Hey, Theme Park History! Could you please do Flight of Fear at Kings Island and Kings Dominion?
Anyone here after disney officially laid off the cast of many popular shows. Including the Stunt show spectacular
Yea a show. Can we get Fantasmic next please? I remember when I was in this show at Hollywood Studios
I remembered being forced by my family to be an extra on this show against my will. Had terrible anxiety and never talked to them again since then.
Theme Park History!!! Where did you go?!?
Since it just closed, and it's close to Halloween, maybe do an episode on The Walking Dead Maze at Universal Studios Hollywood
Yessss I got the notification during class but as soon as it was done i clicked the vid
Can’t believe Kermit killed a man
Well I mean his father killed Elmo grandpa for not likening Wilkins coffee
In the near future can you do Knott’s Berry Farm rides like the Timber Mountain Log Ride
I went to Disney World in January right before the coronavirus and I film the entire show
I have yet to go to Disney World but if I ever get the chance to go this is the show that I have to go check out everyone's been telling me to go check it out
Do Fantasmic Walt Disney world !
so i got a good story with this atration, some time in the 90s i would say when i was maybe 5 or 6 so like 92 -94 i fell foward and sliced my finger open on one of the old plastic stile seats (before they went to bench seat) all i remember is i almost needed stitches had to go back stage and had a giant rolled up bandage on my finger. some one in my family always gets injured going to disney. i went a couple years ago and met their stunt bad guys dude looked like zengief from street fighter 2 made me look tiney and im 6 foot 1
