- EPCOT Wonders Of Life 2006: See the FULL Attraction with the interactive exhibits as it was before Disney closed it. This walk through video lets you see Cranium Command and ride on Body Wars. Now closed at Walt Disney World EPCOT the geodesic dome is where they now have special events.
I remember there was some kind of display that had coiled copper pipes twisted together into a pillar and one pipe had cold water
running through it and the other warm water. When you grabbed them with your hand the effect made your hand feel like it was either
burning hot or freezing cold or even both at the same time.
I wish I could've seen this pavilion (darn parents, having me in 1999 instead of earlier), I absolutely love how it looks, reminds me of mall aesthetic from the 80s and 90s, which has this strange psychological connection to me, since my mom took me to the 2 local malls (one of which still looks remarkably similar to this) all the time when I was super young. That, plus growing up watching 70s-90s movies that my parents loved, puts this pavilion and its attractions in the same part of my mind as prehistoric earth, Vaporwave, Neon Genesis Evangelion, and 90s SEGA.
AortaPlatinum you could still remember this. You were 7 when it closed, I mean you could remember it
Born in 2004. I also love tons of retro stuff too
I have sorta the opposite problem: I _did_ get to see EPCOT in the early ‘80s…and to this day, it remains my favorite theme park experience…! but alas, it was so _early_ in the ‘80s that The Seas and The Wonders of Life pavilions hadn’t even opened yet - plus Spaceship Earth had been struck by lightning when we visited, and wasn’t operating for the day - so I never experienced those rides!
But Journey into Imagination was great - my jaded 11-year-old self even happily and willingly got my picture taken with Dreamfinder and Figment! - the Energy pavilion remains the single most awe-inspiring ride I’ve ever been on, and after Kitchen Kabaret, to this day I can’t fix food without humming “veggie veggie, fruit fruit” to myself.
I’m glad that version of EPCOT Center still lives on on RUclips at least. Maybe someday Disney will have a visionary CEO again who’ll return EPCOT to its original mission. Not everything has to be “synergies” and “vertical integration” and “product placement” - there’s a need in the world for a visionary, utopian theme park, which a restored EPCOT Center could once again fill.
We're on the same boat. Im also from 99.
I showed this to my english class along with mattswonsas exploration video and they were fascinated.
Goes to show that this simple but passionate EPCOT was (ironically) miles ahead of the current epcot.
90s SEGA..... and Body Wars..... there is a book where Team Sonic goes inside of Knuckles' body and I was like WHAT bc Knuckles was a childhood favorite. Why is he a host
I wish i could ride Body Wars sitting next to my dad just one more time. Thanks so much for posting this ❣️
Whenever I go to the “Festival Center” for Food and Wine or Flower and Garden, I play the Wonders of Life soundtrack on my headphones
The Sad thing is that they couldn't reopen WOL even if they wanted to. They've been using the Body Wars simulator for spare parts when ever Star Tours breaks down..
Time Cop I was just about to say it practically identical!
Dr Lair and her old man patient are gonna be PISSED
Just found this excellent video of Wonders of Life. I really enjoyed that pavilion and have a lot of memories of Body Wars and Cranium Command.
Thank you. We miss the original EPCOT.
@@MikeWeber50 Same here.
Yes General Knowledge cracked me up especially with his Disney World line and I loved Annie
We still say “Where do you think you are? Disney World?”
is it bad i miss this pavilion more than most attractions at disney and i never got to even fully experience it
man is sad to see in the instructional video all the people getting on the ride and then you see not even 2 lines full
#bringbackwondersoflife
Thanks for posting this. I totally missed this one back in the day. I did see Horizons way back when I was a kid. I think this replaced it.
Thanks for watching. This pavilion was a perfect example of intelligent entertainment that was what made the original EPCOT so good. Horizons was another example and our favorite. It was a great disappointment when they replaced that.
Body wars is such a great ride
Why do I get 1980's shopping mall vibes from this video?
This video made me found out how old the band aphex twins is and apparently was more then a decade old when this building was going to close
The Cranium Command pre show being off hurts so bad
Can so see Inside Out go in where Cranium Command is...
G1 Smokescreen I can see that too. It sucks, classic attractions have been taken over by modern Disney IPs since like 2003 with Alien Encounter turning into that Stitch crap, and the Matterhorn turning into that Frozen ride that doesn't even have real animatronics.
@@aortaplatinum However, Ant-Man and The Wasp is a perfect fit for Body Wars. I'd love to see an attraction where they go inside The Falcon to show how the body heals itself. That's only if Disney gets the rights back from Universal...
@@YuukiTakemoto1996 no way they'll keep the educational themes, that's how EPCOT got a reputation as "the lame Disney park" [despite Animal Kingdom being infinitely lamer]. No, they'll just make it more and more of a Magic Kingdom clone.
Fun fact: The lead animator for Cranium Command's animated intro was Pete Docter, the director for Inside Out.
@@stlouisrocker100 That's awesome! Pete should definitely tell Disney to put Inside Out in Cranium Command's place!
wait is that figment? if you see that boy with figment pause it at 6:30
Yes
7:19
The hydraulic pumps can be heard starting! :)
10:52 my lord what were you guys doing? XD "breathing" in the amazing scene? lol
Body Wars reminds me of the episode of the Iron Man animated series from the 90s where Iron Man goes inside Hawkeye to repair his spinal injury. I wouldn't be surprised if the guy we go inside was played by the same guy who voiced Hawkeye.
The guy we are inside in the ride is an old man (or a woman with short hair but I see a broad old man)
I noticed something wrong with that pre show thing. I know that because The animation was a head of the voice acting.
What I don't get about the wonders of life is that you are supposed to go to each pavilion and eat stuff in the world showcase, and then you go to the wonders of life and they tell you to eat healthy
Sara McConnell the Wonders Of Life pavilion was all about teaching guests about the body. The focus on the whole pavilion wasn't just to eat healthy. There were parts in the pavilion that talked about eating healthy and exercising but they were there just there to help guests understand how eating healthy and exercising is beneficial to the body.
Back when Epcot opened, WDW had a healthy food initiative. There wasn't so much sugar and barely any alcohol being served. I remember the healthy restaurant that used to be in WOL. The ideas were misguided at the time (low fat), but it was still better than the stuff all over WDW now, such as boozy cookie shakes being served at snack bars on all the walkways.
You know, still to this day I can not figure out if the Wonders of Life Pavillion was a good attraction or a bad one.
It was definitely memorable, I'll give it that, but just maybe not for the reasons Disney wanted.
The Body Wars ride was obviously a highlight for being pretty much EPCOT'S only thrill ride. Man, that ride both fascinated me and freaked me out at the same time.
Cranium Command was an interesting idea, but maybe not one of Disney's better shows.
I never saw 'The Making of Me' show but I was curious to see what it was like. I was at the age where I knew where babies came from, but thought it would be awkward to watch something like that with my mother!
The only other thing that stood out to me was the 'Room with a Scew' thing. That was fun.
So despite having some memorable moments, I honestly don't think it's a big loss to the Disney Parks.
If you think about it, Body Wars was pretty much the main reason Wonders of Life had to close. When it opened it was ground breaking despite the fact that it was a super rough ride. However once Star Tours opened at Hollywood Studios, the inferior Body Wars really lost the ability to draw people to the pavilion. And other then the Cranium Command and Making of Me shows, there wasn't really anything else to do. One of my first memories of Disney was going to Epcot for the first time in 1989 when I was 6, I remember being super excited to ride Body Wars. When I got off I remember feeling sick and not so thrilled.
(6:09) Was that Colonel Cochran at the Body Wars attraction?
Awesome footage! Do you know what month it was filmed?
I believe it was November of 2006.
When did Disney close this attraction? I used to love it.
They closed it in 2007
January 1, 2007
2007. I was about 3 or 4
I never got to see the wonders of life cause it closed not even two months after I was born
I must have have really sensitive hearing because this video is incredibly loud!

What is the song at the beginning? I've frantically looked through all songs played at WoL, and can't find it :(
Most of the music at Wonders of Life was from the album Natural States by David Lanz. Behind The Waterfall was most prominent at the entrance.

Took me a while to find it, but it was worth it!

Cranium was a pre-show and 3 seconds? Wow. Try to include the attraction next time.
There was an actual show in Cranium Command, it wasn't taped here. It's probably elsewhere on RUclips
14:21 stupid audio is out of sync
Sorry, I had hoped to capture it but a cast member made me put the camera away inside the attraction.
Good thing they closed this place, there's hardly anyone there.
It was very dated and by '06, Soarin had opened up...that's where everyone was headed to by then.
There used to be days you could go to Disney and have small crowds!
I heard that they’re gonna reopen it on 2021
It's supposed to become the Play Pavilion but that seems to have been delayed due to the current health crisis.
