Sigh...😪
Only 30 MPH? My life has been a lie for decades.
The Orlando one only goes 25-27
...
Yeah they have all sorts of crazy things to make it feel fast like fans
+Louis Auto I've just been, and they left some lights on in the distance. Just enough so that you could make out the track, and yeah, its actually really slow and quite tamed. Completely ruined it forever! :(
As someone who just test drove a Tesla, go test drive a Tesla if you want to feel G's. My stomach hurt afterwards XD
Love these "Secrets and History" videos from you guys! There aren't enough of them. Please do more more often! FRESH BAKED!

This was a great video thank you!
Professor Fresh. Very enlightening.
Everything was great. Where do you find this stuff?
FreshBakedDisney Do a secrets and history on the monorail please!
FreshBakedDisney I don't know why, but I find Disney history so fascinating.
What I remember as a kid when I first rode SM was the cue. You would wait in the corridors inside the building - you didn’t just walk through there like you do now. The corridors were also faintly lit and open to the ride so you could see the cars flying by and hear the ride.
8:14 that music is so nostalgic it gave me goosebumps
Well done! The giant map of Disneyland that I got in 1970 has the Space Mountain on it, even though I can't recall but I don't think they had even started to build the structure. They really planned far out!!
space mountain is the best ride at Disneyland. I traditionally, purposely make Space Mountain the 1st ride I get on when I go to Disneyland. Thats how I kick off my day at The Magic Kingdom!
In 2011, I went to Disneyland 6 days after knee surgery! The neatest thing I encountered on Space Mountain was the Disabled/handicapped loader. We took our time getting on, then the track piece our car was on was slid into place. After the ride, they slid us back to the left for casual exiting. This track is right after the loading area, and it is fun just to see it in action. It only took an extra 10 seconds for ours to move in and out.
Very cool. Im glad it's not that copper color. That was hideous
Well, Disneyland Paris has the rusty, steampunk look, but makes it look right
I used to work in Disney's advertising agency behind the park. I would enter the park on my lunch breaks to ride Space Mountain and Haunted Mansion, then pick up lunch and go back to work. I could see Tower of Terror from my window. It was the best.
that's so AWESOME!!!! What are you up to now?
This was an excellent over view of the history and creation of Space Mountain! I can remember when it first opened out here at Disneyland when I was about 9 years old. I remember the lines were sometimes three hours long! This video brought back a lot of memories. Thanks for sharing. ;-)
Great stuff! i worked as a Sound Mechanic for several years at Disneyland, and Space Mountain was my home attraction. We all referred to the asteroid projector as the "cookie projector". One of the coolest things we did was on Grad Nights. After the students left the park we normally kept the ride running for the day shift. But after the last students rode, we would kill all special effects and ride in COMPLETE darkness. The only light was from the glow panels on the rockets reflecting on the handrails of the catwalks. Totally different ride!
omg thank you for mentioning the chocolate chip cookie! I totally remember it! we would be in line and specifically yell out "cookie" when we saw it! I wish it existed somewhere! I also have a fond memory of when they played "Higher Ground" that one year I think - it was really fun! I do miss the old soundtrack too! Cookie!!!
Loved this video. I wish you had some info about the early designs in the line que like being able to watch the rocket cars glow in the dark inside the mountain from an inside window. Also the odd blue infinity mirror effects they used to have while climbing up the top of the track. I remember weird high pitch "boing" sound effects while climbing that tunnel.
I absolutely love your history presentation.
so if the stars are projected by disco balls and you start to panic midway through the ride i guess you could say you're,, panicking at the disco
I love you
omg
Best comment! 🤘🏽😎🎸🎶
hah too bad they suck
Noice
My favorite ride! I remember the ramp out front. I also remember when they first added the soundtrack. My sister was obsessed with the tv show "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" and thought the SM music sounded like the BVS theme song! Nowadays, I go with my hubby, but he can't ride it because of motion sickness, so I get to bypass the long line and get in the single rider line, which is usually pretty short. Great video!
Space Mountain has always been my favourite Disney ride, though I've only been to Disneyland Paris, where you can see the rollercoaster outside for a moment after it's 'blasted' from the 'canon', before it plunges into the darkness. The last time I went on Space Mountain in Paris it said the ride had been refurbished - the only difference I found was new decorations in the the queuing area which was now twice as long!!
Cool video bro, love the occasional laughter :)
Thank you for making this video David! It's always nice to hear disney history I had not previously known, especially ones about attractions! :)
I love space mountain it's one of my favorites
That was out of this world. Learned things I did not know. Made me want to drive down (22 hours ) and ride it. Thank you for all the great and hard work you do. FRESH BAKED!!
The first time i ever went on Space Mountain (recently changed to Hyperspace mountain because of starwars) was in 2014 (because i was 11 and too afraid to go on in 2009) and it was at Halloween. It was a scary experience (for someone who never liked roller coasters up until now, at 13) but when we went back this year, I was fine and it is incredible!!
Well done, Dave! I have really enjoyed your Secrets and History series.
This was such a great video! Well done David!!!
I know I've watched all these videos before but for some reason RUclips is only telling me that I've watched two or three but because I like them so much I'm going to re-watch them! A little refresher. Fresh Baked!!
Don't forget, when you get off Space Mountain, you have tears coming down your face.
Why?
@@jordanbetterthanu1741 Mostly due to the wind blowing in your face.
First time commenting, been watching Fresh Baked for about a year now, and I have to say that this is my favorite ride ever, and I am so happy that you guys did this. Plus I LOVED all the pictures of what the Space Mountain area/Tomorrowland used to look like.
great video. I love these videos, they're one of my favorites with hacks,tricks,secret places. Thanks FreshBakedDisney
Disneyland Paris has a Steampunk Space Mountain which looks waaaaay better than what they tried to remake in Disneyland CA. White is perfect for that building.
Nice work, David.I had no idea Space had so much interesting history behind it. I want the original and don't forget the escalators!
This was awesome, please do more more of these if you can. Your narration is just spot on. Thank you Fresh Baked!
4:11 'Space' Limitations... Wow. Just Wow. (A lot of you will now catch this for the first time.)
I always like walking up those ramps, anticipation, and seeing all around and below me made for great memories
Love The People Mover....
Miss That SO Much....
Dave, this was fantastic!! You have become a master at narration!
NOTHING MAKES ME HAPPIER THAN A NEW SECRETS AND HISTORY VIDEO!
Hi! Just wanna thank you for coming with these really informative videos on the history of Disney attractions. I am pretty new to theme park design and only just recently delve into the magic and history of disney parks and attractions. These have been really helpful and interesting to watch! so thank you!
Love the history videos! I didn't know about the escalator at all until now and it's quite frankly sad they took it out. Thanks for the video!
Only watched 2 videos. Haunted Mansion and Space Mountain. That's it, you've got my sub dude! :D
crystal bubbles only a little over a thousand more videos to watch. Fresh Baked!!
me to
same
If ya think ghost galaxy is cool. Then you need to ride it when its Hyper Space Mountain. aka. best star wars themed ride ever
Great video, I learned so much! The weighing of the cars was especially very interesting! Thank you for the video!
me and my mom used to watch these videos all the time lol. we both love disney.
No mention of Michael Giacchino composing the soundtrack? It's my favorite amusement park song of all time!
47drift the surf rock is better lol
I love the steam punk look on the ride actually. I wish it was still there. I learned more in this then I thought I would :) thanks! This series is my favorite from you guys!
Space Mountain!... My very first roller coaster ride ever. I was 12 or 13 years old in early 80s. but I can still recall the first commercial on TV about Space Mountain.
I LOVE space mountain and California screamin they are both so fun!
If you haven't already can you make a playlist of your Secrets and History videos?
Amanda Wynn lol, I like to the secrets playlist in every video :) Here ya go
ruclips.net/video/TL0QbgG1BDw/видео.html
He did
This is so well done and very interesting. I love these history videos. Keep them coming!
These are my favorite! I always think I know so much about Disneyland, but then you always find facts I never knew about
I've been eagerly awaiting for another Secrets and History video, amazing job David! :D
Thanks for the history , I am a huge fan of Space mountain and tomorrow land in general. I was there when it was shut down for the new transformation and was a tad bummed, but afterwards it was well worth the wait. I am hoping to visit this summer and spring again , that time cannot come sooner
I love hearing the ghost scream from Main Street it's awesome!
I think I know everything until I watch your videos. Amazing!
Disneyland Paris:
The version at Disneyland Paris opened on June 1, 1995, three years after the opening of the park. It was originally called De la Terre à la Lune, and was originally designed as a view on space travel from a Jules Verne-era perspective, based on the novel From the Earth to the Moon. The track is significantly different from the other four, as it's the only one to include a launch and inversions. It underwent modifications in 2005 and became Space Mountain: Mission 2. This journey was slightly different to the first as it took riders beyond the Moon, to the very edge of our universe. Again, in 2015 the ride closed for yet another refurbishment. The ride name changed to simply 'Space Mountain'. Currently, the ride is still undergoing this refurbishment and will reopen in Summer 2015.
Only watched 2 videos. Haunted Mansion and Space Mountain. aaaaaaaaand i already subbed. THESE ARE INCREDIBLE!!!!!!! i am trying to do a Fresh Baked Diney marathon. :D:D
only another thousand or so to watch. :D:D
I bet they will be as entertaining as these two!!
At least a thousand of them are :)
:)
oh i know. your videos are amazing!!
never stop making them (until you run out of attractions. ;p)
never make changes because someone else demands it. always be yourself and the world will be a good place
hope you have a great day
xx - charlotte. :)
I simply love this kind of videos
Thnx
Great job on this .The cars in the 80s did have a glow in the dark paint and you could see them moving around inside when you are in line.The windows are paint over now. Love the job you guys do on covering Disneyland.
love rockin' the Dick Dale soundtrack in the car!
This is an awesome video on my favorite ride at Disneyland (and one of my favorites in the world). The trickery really is convincing, that's for sure! I do miss "classic" Disneyland (particularly Tomorrowland), and I too have fond memories of that escalator...and the Peoplemover...and of "Gantry Lifts A & B"!:(. Heck, I even recall being sad when Adventure thru Inner Space was being removed! Lastly, it still amazes me how Disney has perfected "block dispatching" on these 2 coasters (SM & the Matterhorn).
You have a great voice for narrating!
first video I've watched of this guy and he's already got my sub
ThePlaystationAddict Same
I just started watching you yesterday and I'm in love. I love your channel so much! Keep up the good work!
Wow so DisneyWorlds Magic Kingdom had Spacemountain first in 1975. Then the Disneyland version opened two years later in 1977. I did not know that thanks
This was a really good video. Definitely one of my favorites from this channels. I hope you do other attractions too.
I love the video! I really like the way you presented it, makes it fun to watch and listen too! I say listen, because I was listening to it while working on something else, when I noticed you have some of the Timekeeper music in the background! Nice Easter egg dude! :D
I have been to Disney many times and it never gets old to me. I LOVE it so much and I enjoy your videos very much! Thank you!
Wonderful info and delivery with my favorite Fresh Baked style!
Awesome video David! I can't wait to tell my sister someone else noticed the chocolate chip cookie!!! We thought it was just something we kinda sorta saw back then. If I remember right, it was just before the first drop, spinning above. Not 100% sure. More cool memories! Thank you Fresh Baked. :)
man i love these good to have it back and Thank you for making this and im totally listening to the music on my way to work tomorrow
I remember when the ride was designed to be like the Disney movie "The Black Hole" when I was little. When you went up the hill, to your left was the large ship from the movie and near the end the rockets would go in a whirlpool effect to give you the feeling you were caught in the black hole. I was about 8 at the time but I still remember how fun it was. I also remember the Matterhorn was hollow inside with a mini roller coaster inside.
More history and secrets videos please but don't forget the daily week vlog!!!!! FRESH BAKED!!!!
Also, the main reason why Space Mountain feels faster than it really is is because there's a lot of sharp turns; you are constantly feeling the G force which gives the body the sensation of pressure, and speed.
I love the Epcot Entrance loop in the background.
Yesterday, I took out my stop watch on my phone to time how long it takes to unload and load each rocket. I got anywhere between 10 to 15 seconds. Now, that's fast!
I was at the park a week before space mountain was to open on a school trip and I along with a bunch of school friends were picked to ride it twice, once with the lights on and then with the lights off. What a difference it was in the feeling you had.
Awesome video! Rode it for the first time recently and LOVED it, wish I hadn't waited so long.
Love your vids man. I'm a huge Disneyland fan and I'm always learning something new from your vids.
I clearly remember my last visit to DL as a kid, in spring 1975, walking by signs that said “future site of Space Mountain.” FF ‘til I went with a friend and we had kids of our own, in 2000. I rode it but didn’t get the fun tbh. Later my youngest made me ride it, and now she’s 19 she makes me ride first thing in the morning to this day. It’s grown on me. Morning coffee not necessary, in fact it’s best wake-up ever.
space mountain ride Scare's me every time I think it's the wait in the que that does it for me
Nice to hear the Universe of Energy music in the background...
Space Mountain: Rainbow Road Edition with the track colored a rainbow color with the rainbow road theme from Mario Kart. Who likes this idea?
PheoRoyalty nope since nintendo chose to work with universal
I was in that long line Memorial Day weekend in 1977. I was 11 and the line did indeed start at the ticket plaza by the stroller/wheelchair building. It look 7.5h.
It wound along the east side of Main Street and its alleys, along the Hub, back and forth several times in the Tomorrowland Mall under the Peoplemover tracks, around the base of the Space Mountain SpeedRamps, then ALL of the upper plaza area overlooking the Space Stage.
There was lots of tag-teaming for bathroom and food breaks.
I learned some cool facts about a long time favorite ride. Thanks FRESH BAKED!
Great job! I know you were working on this for a while!!
Great video! Thank you so much for all the work you put into these - fantastic job!!
i went to disney world as a kid in 79 and the thing i remember as being really cool is that when i was waiting in line you could look up into the mountain darkness and when you were riding around you could see the coasters glowing in the dark as they zipped around on the track. i understand now that the coaster no longer glow in the dark, what a shame.
clumaster they glowed in 82 my first visit and that was awesome. It was so cool seeing the other rockets "flying" about. Another very cool thing was the Windows into the mountain you could look into as you walked along the line that's inside. Couldn't believe they shuttered those, just covered them right over WHY?!
Awesome! luv learning so much history and significance of all this Family Fun! Thanks for your efforts. Happy Easter! KO
I totally remember the cookie =)
Another amazing history video! These are my favorite, thank you!
You do some of the best history videos! I don't know how many times I have watch the Haunted Mansion ones! I wonder if you would be interested in doing one on extinct attractions?
I love your history videos freshbaked! Hoping to see more in the future. As a side note I hope the track is better at disney land. One at world is to rickity and makes me queasy. Here is hoping spring 2016!
i love that music i hope they bring that back .
I was there when Space Mountain opened and it was real fast !!!!! I remember having my head to the side throughout the ride. Later we heard that the speed was slowed down.
I was walking down Main Street as the park was closing for the night, and the projects and noises started on the mountain and it creeped me out so much.
My favorite roller coaster in the world (preferably the Disneyland version), and this video has many of the reasons why it is so. I am no stranger to very thrilling coasters and love ALL of them but none are as good as a flight through space at only 30 miles an hour.
Holy crap thanks for mentioning that space cookie in the Dick Dale version of the ride. My dad would point it out to me as a kid and I always thought he was just making shit up. Now I'll have to tell him he was right lol
How can I NOT sub after seeing a video of this quality? 😉 you're one more closer to 100k now! 👍👍
I like this new segment! Keep them coming.
