    I feel as if I just stumbled across the next big Disney channel in its infancy. Thanks for the entertaining edit and friendly read. I'm onboard.

    Tower of Terror is quite possibly my favorite anything to exist, ever. I cannot quite recall when I saw it for the first time, but my earliest memory is crying because I was not tall enough to ride it. The cast members at the entrance gave me a small certificate, signed by Mickey himself, and told me that when I was tall enough that I could come back and get to the front of the line for free. Ever since then, I have been enthralled with its every nook, cranny, and any detail about it, no matter how small. I came to love everything about it, and one day during one of my family's yearly summer vacations to WDW, some imagineers stopped my family and allowed me and my brother to "work" at Tower of Terror for the day. They gave us our own bellhop uniforms and took us on an entire tour of the ride: we got to sit on the couches in the lobby, they gave us lots of lore and trivia about the ride, and they even took us to the camera room at the bottom of the attraction once you exit. One of the cast members that toured with us (his name was Josh) was the best performance I have witnessed at any attraction. He pulled off an eerie bellhop better than anyone I have seen. He also gave me a copy of the ride's soundtrack. Ever since then, I have probably ridden ToT over three hundred something times. I just cannot get enough of how perfect and special this attraction is to me. It also prompted me to become obsessed with The Twilight Zone as well. It has inspired me, as well as all of WDW, to pursue my dream of becoming an imagineer that I hope to accomplish someday. My only fear is that it will get re-themed one day. I promise I will cry if that day ever comes.

    It is me, Mark Silverman. I grew up watching so much Twilight Zone and I was obsessed with Disneyland and Walt Disney World, so getting the job to narrate a Twilight Zone ride for Disney seemed like a Twilight Zone episode in itself.

    Excellent B-roll editing on this episode. The salt shaker bit and the emperor's new groove "ooooo" especially stood out to me.

  • @ErrorWolf

    As a cast member who got to ride the "new randomized" test program in a cast exclusive night, sooo many times, as well as a guest who saw the billboard preconstruction, this has been a fav, the theming is pure Disney. Walt level.

    Brilliant in every detail, great narration, visuals and information. Thanks

    My friend you really are a kindred spirit. I love the golden age depicted in Hollywood studios. This video was great. I appreciate all the details.

    You are making amazing content. I just recently visited Walt Disney World for the first time last week and all I could think about was how these rides were made/maintained. I would LOVE to see more especially ones like Flight Of Passage. Keep it up!!

  • @christinamitchell7356

    Love your channel. We first went on the ToT when it was new. Interesting that the safety belts that are on the ride now for each rider were not there originally. Each row had one lap bar. My husband is bigger than me and my two kids so when the ride dropped we really came out of our seats. It was really awesome. I suppose the “danger” factor would be why they installed individual laps belts. Always loved this attraction.

    Amazing channel , content and production.

  • @GlampReview

    You have given this attraction so much justice by this documentary! Like the other commenter I feel I have stumbled across the next big Disney channel too!

    I really got excited when I saw you had a new video! I'll leave a comment now, and another when I watch the whole thing. Thanks for making such great Disney content.

    So just as an add to the Directory before the preshow rooms. If you look at the bottom of the tray, the letters have fallen to say "Take the Stairs"

  • @Reubachi

    Wow, it’s not often these days I actually learn new disney info from RUclips. I’m certain that without your ride construction videos, someone like me would have never known the planning and consideration imagineers took. Now people can know forever!

  • @philollenberg

    So you're saying the elevator travels 39 mph… or 3 × 13 mph, another 13 recurrence, times 3 for the 3rd gate at WDW?

    I actually knew very little about this ride so the whole thing was informative. I am a huge Twilight Zone fan, so it was cool that you spotted all the artifacts from episodes from the original series. Thanks for making this amazing content.

    Great video. You can tell you’ve put a lot of time and effort into it. You’ve earned yourself a subscriber. Looking forward to watching your other videos and what’s to come. Nice work!

  • @Millionaire2K

    Very good video. Note, Rod Serling did do a part of the narration. The video clip and audio of Rod were from the episode "It's a good life". Rod says "Tonight's story on The Twilight Zone is somewhat unique and calls for a different kind of introduction. This, as you may recognize, is a" And the new narrator picks up at that point, "maintenance service elevator". In the episode, points to a "map of the united states". On the ride he points to a "maintenance service elevator".
