Yes! Would love more horror animatronic rides! Most of the ones they have are more kid friendly which I can understand since theme parks are going to have more children and preteens then older teens and adults being the ones riding rides. But aside from rollercoasters and thrill rides attracting the older crowd if they added more "adult" based horror rides and haunted houses they would have something else to attract older kids/teens and adults.
Fun fact: The Horned King was voiced by John Hurt in the original English version of The Black Cauldron. He also played Kane, the guy who gets chest-bursted in Ridley Scott's Alien.
I remember going to The Alien ExtraTERRORestrial Alien Encounter when I was a very young teen, it was terrifying my mother had to hold my hand the whole time, the ride is almost completely in darkness, the only thing you see is the tube and the screens showing you the video, when the alien escapes, the whole room is pitch black and those air blasters behind your neck have you thinking its right behind you, an experience i will never forget lol
FilthyFrancine That is something that I really hope Disney brings back because I was born in 2001 and they removed the attraction in 2003 so I never got to experience it
Ok now I’m terrified. The ride closed in 2003. I was born 2010. I somehow remember that ride......... I also remember rides that closed down before my parents were even together........ pls send support in scared. (I’m on my moms account btw)
Oh please people, UPVOTE this one. If you're not sure why, look up the video of Ellen with her animatronic on the show with her. That thing is Five Nights at Freddy's but starring Ellen.
The fact that Disney now has ownership over Alien/Xenomorph now means that if they wanted to they can FINALLY do an Alien themed ride in any of their Disney parks after the past attempts of doing one especially with how far their animatronic tech had gone over the years. Question is that if they're willing to do so. I'm guessing maybe Hong Kong Disneyland since they're pretty famous for actually being willing to do scare mazes and attractions similar to how Universal does Halloween Horror Nights. Like their famous or infamous depending on how one feels about the idea their Nightmare experiment mazes.
I keep seeing people say this but it would be a good idea to do it seasonal like how some rides change for Halloween, I personally kinda want it all year round (cuz I never got to experience it and I just like horror lol) but that is just me but putting it up on every Halloween would probably work
They used to have two alien rides (one specifically just alien and one with an alien as part of the ride) but they got ride of them because they were overwhelming scary for little kids.
It’s tough to be a bug absolutely horrified me as a kid. I remember I couldn’t even sit through the full show after the seat effects and the spiders I had a melt down.
A few years ago, my mom convinced me to go to this show, thinking that it was a show like the Hall of Presidents or Mickey’s PhilharMagic. When the after effects of the show kicked in, she jumped up like she was in a Tom & Jerry cartoon. As for me… let’s just say that it was an easy way to lose a pound or two in under 5 minutes.
Okay, real talk about Big Al. I first went to Disney World when I was 7 years old, and when I watched The Country Bear Jamboree, I enjoyed most of it (and this was back in the day when they played the whole show and didn't chop it up like a fish at a sushi restaurant)...that was until Big Al showed up. I was first confused when I heard those opening guitar strings. However, the moment the curtains opened on Big Al, I felt like I was that kid in that Simpsons meme that says, "I'm in danger." I didn't wanna go back in there again until I was in my teens. Overall, I'm really happy to watch this video and to see that I'm not the only person who thought Big Al was terrifying as a child. My mom used to call me crazy for having this fear and she always forced me in the show anyway.
Huh. My brother and I were 5 and 4, respectively, when Country Bear Jamboree opened and we never thought Big Al was scary, he was funny. His song was hysterical! We loved that ride so much that we put on a whole lip sync show to the soundtrack for our parents, costumes and everything, LOL.
I loved the country bear jamboree!! It was the best show there. The only ride that I didn't like and traumatized me was mount Everest I still won't get on it till this day. That's how bad it terrified me here's the story time of how it traumatized me. Story time : I was about 8 or 9 ( I can’t remember but it’s somewhere around there ) my family decided to take me on Mount Everest. We were on ride everything was fine I was fine till we got to the part where it went backwards and stops you where the yeti comes out and rips the tracks like it’s looking for you. I started screaming and crying my poor mom I was hitting her ( sorry mom for probably beating you it was the yeti’s fault ) I wanted to get off that ride. I am still scarred from the ride and I still won’t go on it till this day. The yeti scarred me for life
He's even creepier in the movie. He straight up uses the cauldron to create an army of zombies. Imagine if the animatronic had skeletal zombies hand come out of the cauldron...
@Brian Orozco I was a little surprised by that too, but then thought about the fact that it was located in Tokyo, Japan, a non-western, non-historically Christian country that isn’t going to have the same cultural baggage around Satan that western/Christian cultures do. Imagineers are going to take local customs & ideas into account when designing rides.
Alien Encounter is hands down one of the best experiences I've had at a theme park. It was absolutely terrifying, and the concept is so dead simple and "low tech". Plunge a room into darkness and play spatial sound effects, basically. The part where it feels like the alien is breathing down your neck and skulking right behind you as you're trapped in your seat with the overhead harness...::shivers:: Still creeps me out and I'm nearly 40 now!
@@gothnerd887 in middle school, here in the states, I came across that series in the form of its second book. I only realized this because I recognized the names Taran and Eilonwy. Highly recommend to anyone else reading these comments.
Same. Remember trying when I was 5 and couldn’t make it past the first turn in the queue with the dungeon. So I took my mom and turned us around. So sad. And now as an adult I love all of the Halloween events!
One of my childhood nightmares that stuck with me involved the animatronic turning towards me as I continuously fall into darkness... Snow White was not kind to my sleep
If I where to bring back any animatronic it will be THE HORNED KING MWAHAHAHA. The Black Cauldron still is and will always be my favorite movie ever. Do you agree?
I’m forever haunted for the fact that my dad was the outsourced guy who did the fx on the stinkbug fart (he would go on to actually join the disney fx team on big hero six and is now a lead. to think it started w that goddamn fart)
@@ThemeParkCrazy no, they did onscreen effects. disney doesn’t outsource at all for their movies but they do sometimes for rides, a ton of outsourced animators worked on tough to be a bug :)
We rode this in 1971, thinking it would be fun. We were in the Magic Kingdom and this was Disney after all…Our then 3year old brother was terrified by this dark , scary and totally unexpected ride….there should have been a warning on it…
I was eight years old the first time I went to Disney and I was OBSESSED with all things safari and animals so naturally animal kingdom was the thing I looked forward to the whole trip. Well of course that big ol’ tree is on every single poster for the park so that was the first thing I wanted to check out, and “it’s tough to be a bug” was the attraction, and while I wasn’t huge on bugs I wasn’t scared of them (at least not before this). When I tell you those spiders coming down from the ceiling had a lasting effect.... arachnophobia spewed from my little eight year old brain so fast and I was screaming and thrashing trying to gtfo! If that wasn’t bad enough, the seat effect at the end really sealed the deal. Safe to say I was pissed for the rest of the day 😂👌
Same, and mind you I was made to ride it TWICE! I came out scared the first time, and hated the seats moving and effects. The second time I was aware that I didn’t like it, I tried to get the upper hand and close my eyes on the scary parts. My mom told me it was fine and, stupid me opened my eyes and glanced upward as one of the spiders came down on me (like on my spot/seat location). Needless to say, that second time sealed my arachnophobia. Hated that ride and (if I’m not mistaken) I’m glad it’s gone!
Okay. True story from when I was 5 (I refuse to say what year that was 😂) In the Bug’s life one.. when the black widows dropped, my dad thought it would be funny to put his spread out hand on my head.... acting like a spider...... I was sitting with my knees in my chest and it scared me so bad I LAUNCHED myself and ended up in another row of chairs 🙃 my nickname from then on was skip cause he says I moved so quick it was like I was tryna skip town 😂
BRO!! I feel you, I went on it expecting a fun show having no idea all that was in it. And I had a fear of animatronics and spiders, so it was my worst nightmare lol
I was so arachnophobic that I couldn't look at cartoon pictures of spiders the last time I went to Disney with my family. They tried to bring me into "It's Tough to be a Bug". I made sure to ask a cast member of there were spiders and immediately left the building, but I still have those trust issues.
Thanks for the aracniphobia warning I have such a fear of spiders a plastic spider scares me so you just saved me from having giant spider nightmares again, thanks!😁
Thank you so much for your epilepsy warning!!! We have a person who IS affected. We didn't show the video to him but the audio was great😁. We allowed him to see part of it once we watch the entire video. Had to cut out a few minutes but still loved it. Thank you again and stay healthy and safe EVERYONE in the world❤💙💚💛💜💖
The squid attacking the Nautilus was so scary as a kid! I am pretty bummed that the whole area has apparently been redesigned, the bronze Jules Verne look was amazing.
I remember the second Hopper showed up I started sobbing. I was 6 years old and REFUSED to put the glasses back on and just screamed in terror. Doesnt help that I also was terrified of spiders. My parents were pissed I wouldn't shut up meanwhile i STILL remember the terror over 20 years later
“It’s Tough to be a Bug” will always be a traumatic experience for me. At 5 years old, it ruined me. Experienced it again at 12... I cried again. But maybe I could sit through it now at 27.
A couple years ago someone on WDWMAGIC had interviewed an Imagineer and they said yeti has 3 main issues: 1. Maintenance is difficult given the size of the yeti and the location. Keep in mind, the yeti is 25 feet tall, 4 tons and about 20 feet above riders. He would move about 5 feet towards guests pretty quickly. 2. Due to how large yeti is, how frequently and how violently it would move, damage to the figure would spread quicker than could be fixed. I believe it was said an issue in the arm would spread to shoulder, chest, ect and there was no taking chances running a damaged figure on the location he is.. 3. Nobody wants to foot the bill. Does WDI pay? Parks pay? Iger/Damaro/Chapek whoever pay? Rhode? Nobody wants to because it would definitely cost a pretty penny to fix him. Also the worry of "Well, we fixed him. Three days later his shoulder joint breaks and here we go again"
I was on the dinosaur ride. I closed my eyes the whole time so all I remember is screams, flashing lights and the occasional dinosaur peaking behind my fingers. It was great
The stitch ride scared the crap out of me when I was younger to where I was genuinely begging my parents for us to go home. Knowing that it was a much scarier ride makes me feel sick lol
_Stitch’s Great Escape_ is _overhated_ imo. It’s _not_ a masterpiece of theme park attractions but it has good stuff in it. It still has the sensory outputs and the Stitch animatronic was pretty cool.
My family loved "Blood on the Saddle" as far back as I remember (my first time as Disneyland, I was 3 months old). My brother and I used to sing along to the soundtrack record my folks got us. Mind you, this was back at Disneyland. Late 70's through mid-80's or so. I miss Big Al in California. I never found any animatronics scary whatsoever.
Neither did I (at least as far as Big Al was concerned). And a funny thing, when I was at Disneyland's 30th anniversary celebration, when I did The Country Bear Jamboree, not knowing it was one of the last times the original show would be at Disneyland (!!!), when Big Al first came on, most of the audience gave him a standing ovation.
On my first trip to Animal Kingdom, I don't think I sat through "It's Tough to be a Bug" long enough to see Hopper. No, as soon as the *bees* showed up, I ran out of the theater screaming!
@@davel9252 Aliens is an action movie, but Alien is just classic Sci-Fi horror so I prefer it. Alien3 just isn’t that good though. And don’t get me started on Resurrection.
Personally for me the creepiest animatronic is the one of Ellen from the that energy ride. The lifeless eyes, expressionless and blank face, heartless presence... It's just too much like the real person!
I don’t know, I’ve never been to Epcot much less ridden UoE, so I’ve never seen the animatronic. But I was in the live audience once so I have seen the real Ellen from a distance.
I'm so pissed that the Alien on entry #2 was taken down. I thought that thing was absolutely flawless and was oozing with creativity. It's design had so much effort, and the story for the ride was beautifully executed. If the imagineers for that parks know what they're doing, they'll remake that attraction in that empty spot where it once was.
It’s Tough to Be a Bug was the only thing to make me full on cry on a trip to Disney when I was little. I’ve always had arachnophobia and I didn’t know about the black widows coming from the ceiling and I just immediately started hyperventilating and shaking. I’ve only done it one other time since and never again. It was so bad
After all of these years, I never knew what the alien in Extraterrorestrial actually looked like until now. When I was little, I hated that ride due to how scary it was. My brother loved it, but I was still too young to understand it was all fake and never wanted to go back since then. However, I always wondered what the alien was supposed to be. After seeing it now, it reminds me of a monster called Megaguirus from Godzilla vs Megaguirus.
I cant be the only one who loves how Q'araq looked in the first one. He just looked sosososo cool! The attention to detail and the sheer mass of it is amazing!
I WAS THERE FOR THE BUG SHOW. IT SCARED THE SHIT OUT OF ME AND MY TWIN SISTER. We were in kindergarten and my grandmother let us leave thankfully. I’m 21 now just to tell how long ago this was.
I remember seeing the "it's tough being a bug" show as a kid. I can still smell the stink bug's spray(they actually spray some kind of unpleasant smelling mist on the audience)
4:54 Fun Fact: Although the Carnotaurus makes it’s appearance 4 times on Dinosaur, there is a fifth Carnotaurus in the photo area. You can see it if you look up and to the left after the photo is taken on the ride. The side lights of the Time Rover help to see it as they turn on when you start to leave. I was only able to notice it after I rode Dinosaur for the 7th time that day. (I ended up riding it 20 times on the same day)
I really wish they kept the stitch and alien ride. Stitch was an amazing ride for children and seeing the alien ride looks so cool to ride and experience when your older.
I still have a stuffed Big Al. He was my brother's favorite when he was 2, but when we finally made it to Disneyworld in 1986, Al wasn't singing Tex Ritter anymore. They had changed his song and all I remember was a line where he sang "I lost the love of my life/ and my Swiss Army knife" then he lamented "it was a good knife too". Personally, I loved his drawn out "Buh-loood on the saddle."
I rode the carnotaurus ride, and it was fun and all, but TERRIFYING. The fact that you would stop before the carnotaurus scared the life out of me. And then, out of nowhere at the end, here comes mr. dino devil running at you like a pizza, and then a drop.
Big Al wasn’t scary at all. It was awesome and a sacred part of my childhood. Big Al was very clearly played as comedy. He “came out of nowhere” because the joke was that he didn’t get the upbeat tenor of the show and butted in with a slow, old-time, depressing cowboy song. The other actors in the show shooed him off for this. I used to sing his song at home as a kid, and to me he was nothing but funny.
Same, he was just a big old cuddly bear who didn’t quite get it LOL. I was 4 when CBJ opened and always loved it- even as teen punk rockers we’d be in there singing along. Big Al was my mom’s favorite, she thought he was hysterical.
I'm glad you included Monstro from Disneyland Paris. I got so scared when I went on that ride as a kid. I saw Pinocchio several times as a kid before going on the ride and he's always scared me
It’s kinda unbelievable to believe that Disney made such a dynamic and visually impressive animatronic that was the same size as the original King Kong
I don't think I'll forget that Alien animatronic for as long as I live. I was 7 when my family first went to Disney World, and my dad was really hyping up this ride, but my mom and my then 4-year old sister were sitting right under where the alien pops out. My sister was practically traumatized and Mom was kicking herself for not remembering that part before we got on the ride. I was fine, though; the only things that shook me up were Space Mountain and It's Tough to Be a Bug.
Honestly, we need a lot more rides with scary animatronics. I’m sure it would create a great sense of fear while riding.
And it would definitely attract older guests like me more
Yes! Would love more horror animatronic rides! Most of the ones they have are more kid friendly which I can understand since theme parks are going to have more children and preteens then older teens and adults being the ones riding rides.

Of course not to Disney, but a roller coaster with fnaf animatronics is coming

Needless to say, that second time sealed my arachnophobia. Hated that ride and (if I’m not mistaken) I’m glad it’s gone!
@@Nightfury1801 um. I I was there at Christmastime, and I have bad news...
I don’t even have arachnophobia and I was scared when I saw those spiders in person
Okay. True story from when I was 5 (I refuse to say what year that was 😂) In the Bug’s life one.. when the black widows dropped, my dad thought it would be funny to put his spread out hand on my head.... acting like a spider...... I was sitting with my knees in my chest and it scared me so bad I LAUNCHED myself and ended up in another row of chairs 🙃 my nickname from then on was skip cause he says I moved so quick it was like I was tryna skip town 😂
That's the type of crap my dad would do
I always move forward in the seats when they say the wasps are coming... it still freaks me out in adulthood
@@wolfladdy Yeah, it’s all fake and stuff but it’s sooo scary
So Spacey was a villain after all...
*Pixar enables foreshadowing*
BRO!! I feel you, I went on it expecting a fun show having no idea all that was in it. And I had a fear of animatronics and spiders, so it was my worst nightmare lol
I was so arachnophobic that I couldn't look at cartoon pictures of spiders the last time I went to Disney with my family. They tried to bring me into "It's Tough to be a Bug". I made sure to ask a cast member of there were spiders and immediately left the building, but I still have those trust issues.
That journey to the center of the earth ride is gorgeous!! The lava monster is absolutely glorious. I’d love to see it in person one day.
I second that!! What a stunning ride!
21:33 Big, Meaty, Claws!!
i like your profile pic🤘🏼
@@paigelivesay2977 thank you. 🤘😆🤘
#2's "Extraterrorestrial" is the one ride that has remained fresh in my mind throughout the years. Truly memorable.
Thanks for the aracniphobia warning I have such a fear of spiders a plastic spider scares me so you just saved me from having giant spider nightmares again, thanks!😁
Thank you so much for your epilepsy warning!!! We have a person who IS affected. We didn't show the video to him but the audio was great😁. We allowed him to see part of it once we watch the entire video. Had to cut out a few minutes but still loved it. Thank you again and stay healthy and safe EVERYONE in the world❤💙💚💛💜💖
The squid attacking the Nautilus was so scary as a kid! I am pretty bummed that the whole area has apparently been redesigned, the bronze Jules Verne look was amazing.
It wouldn’t be a Them Park Crazy video without a comparison to food
Alien Encounter will always have a special place in my heart as my 1st horror ride and was one of my earliest Amusement Park memories.
I remember the second Hopper showed up I started sobbing. I was 6 years old and REFUSED to put the glasses back on and just screamed in terror. Doesnt help that I also was terrified of spiders. My parents were pissed I wouldn't shut up meanwhile i STILL remember the terror over 20 years later
The Monstro and Evil Queen ones made me jump the first time I rode them.
“I’m Michael Eisner and welcome to Jackass.”
“It’s Tough to be a Bug” will always be a traumatic experience for me. At 5 years old, it ruined me. Experienced it again at 12... I cried again. But maybe I could sit through it now at 27.
Did you make it?
A couple years ago someone on WDWMAGIC had interviewed an Imagineer and they said yeti has 3 main issues:
1. Maintenance is difficult given the size of the yeti and the location. Keep in mind, the yeti is 25 feet tall, 4 tons and about 20 feet above riders. He would move about 5 feet towards guests pretty quickly.
2. Due to how large yeti is, how frequently and how violently it would move, damage to the figure would spread quicker than could be fixed. I believe it was said an issue in the arm would spread to shoulder, chest, ect and there was no taking chances running a damaged figure on the location he is..
3. Nobody wants to foot the bill. Does WDI pay? Parks pay? Iger/Damaro/Chapek whoever pay? Rhode? Nobody wants to because it would definitely cost a pretty penny to fix him. Also the worry of "Well, we fixed him. Three days later his shoulder joint breaks and here we go again"
The Legend Of ZelThe Black Cauldron made me laugh. Subtle, yet hilarious.
I like Big Al. He looks so befuddled all the time but he obviously loves that melodramatic cowboy song.

Me while watching the video: Talk about scary duh
Me during the rides: AAAAAAH the videos are right
The great movie ride was fantastic! I’m sad to hear it closed, the xenomorphs were impressive and the whole ride charming.
The dinosaur ride scared me so much as a kid. I still have the pictures of me holding onto my dads arm screaming and crying in horror 😂
which one?
I like how whenever I go on Expedition Everest I never notice the Yeti.
Same I only notice the silhouette!
3:08 : "With a skull for a head"
Where else do you find a skull in the human body?
Nice that you gave a little remembrance of Regis Philbin in the video. RIP a legend.😢
I was on the dinosaur ride. I closed my eyes the whole time so all I remember is screams, flashing lights and the occasional dinosaur peaking behind my fingers. It was great
I know the Carnotaurus is suppose to be scary bet I can’t take it seriously with them arms 🤣😂
It looked like that in real life too
"Submechanaphobia warning"
Me with intense thalassaphobia, and submechanaphobia:
*well well well let's see what it is*
omg I saw that bugslife show as a kid, and forgot how scared I was. Thanks for unrepressing that memory
The stitch ride scared the crap out of me when I was younger to where I was genuinely begging my parents for us to go home. Knowing that it was a much scarier ride makes me feel sick lol
_Stitch’s Great Escape_ is _overhated_ imo. It’s _not_ a masterpiece of theme park attractions but it has good stuff in it. It still has the sensory outputs and the Stitch animatronic was pretty cool.
Yay I couldn’t wait for this and it is here!!
My family loved "Blood on the Saddle" as far back as I remember (my first time as Disneyland, I was 3 months old). My brother and I used to sing along to the soundtrack record my folks got us. Mind you, this was back at Disneyland. Late 70's through mid-80's or so. I miss Big Al in California. I never found any animatronics scary whatsoever.
Neither did I (at least as far as Big Al was concerned). And a funny thing, when I was at Disneyland's 30th anniversary celebration, when I did The Country Bear Jamboree, not knowing it was one of the last times the original show would be at Disneyland (!!!), when Big Al first came on, most of the audience gave him a standing ovation.
I miss that show SO much. The ride it was replaced with is utter crap.
Great video. Thanks so much for including my video footage.
On my first trip to Animal Kingdom, I don't think I sat through "It's Tough to be a Bug" long enough to see Hopper. No, as soon as the *bees* showed up, I ran out of the theater screaming!
I see a Xenomorph, I click! Alien is the best movie ever! Xenomorphs Rule💯🔥🖤👽
Glad I’m not the only one hype about the Alien franchise. 👽
Aliens is better.
@@davel9252 Aliens is an action movie, but Alien is just classic Sci-Fi horror so I prefer it. Alien3 just isn’t that good though. And don’t get me started on Resurrection.
Forget Godzilla vs. Kong
I want Q’araq vs. K. Rool!
Personally for me the creepiest animatronic is the one of Ellen from the that energy ride. The lifeless eyes, expressionless and blank face, heartless presence... It's just too much like the real person!
I don’t know, I’ve never been to Epcot much less ridden UoE, so I’ve never seen the animatronic.
But I was in the live audience once so I have seen the real Ellen from a distance.
Lol
Monstro scared the shit out of me as a kid. I’m 30 now, I feel like it still does
I'm so pissed that the Alien on entry #2 was taken down. I thought that thing was absolutely flawless and was oozing with creativity. It's design had so much effort, and the story for the ride was beautifully executed. If the imagineers for that parks know what they're doing, they'll remake that attraction in that empty spot where it once was.
The alien's design lives on, at least. The lava monster from Journey to the Center of the Earth is basically an upscaled copy with a new color scheme.
Also, where's the animatronic of it? We've been looking for it for a year now.
It’s Tough to Be a Bug was the only thing to make me full on cry on a trip to Disney when I was little. I’ve always had arachnophobia and I didn’t know about the black widows coming from the ceiling and I just immediately started hyperventilating and shaking. I’ve only done it one other time since and never again. It was so bad
Looooved this vid! So informative and I love the jokes. Keep it up! Love from the Netherlands♡
Number 2 scared me as a kid. I tried to escape my chair but my mom held my arm. And the whole time, my sister thought it was a different ride
"And a stink bug, played by a stock fart sound effect" omfg im dying here please help
After all of these years, I never knew what the alien in Extraterrorestrial actually looked like until now. When I was little, I hated that ride due to how scary it was. My brother loved it, but I was still too young to understand it was all fake and never wanted to go back since then. However, I always wondered what the alien was supposed to be. After seeing it now, it reminds me of a monster called Megaguirus from Godzilla vs Megaguirus.
My father alwyas told me: "chill, its not real. Its not a living thing"
Fun fact: It’s Tough to Be a Bug gave me my first panic attack at 8 years old. And my mom berating me the entire time. Ah memories
I cant be the only one who loves how Q'araq looked in the first one. He just looked sosososo cool! The attention to detail and the sheer mass of it is amazing!
Yeah i sht my pants when i was In the dinasour ride when i saw the carnitourus
I had nightmares for days
@4:41 "AHH scary-- Mmm yum I'm hungry-- wait what?"
These kind of videos are my jam!
Nice to take a break from coasters sometimes...
*Sometimes*
20:13 -- YES OMG YES!! I went on this ride when I was a kid with my family and it was so scary it scared me for the rest of my whole Disney trip ....
I WAS THERE FOR THE BUG SHOW. IT SCARED THE SHIT OUT OF ME AND MY TWIN SISTER. We were in kindergarten and my grandmother let us leave thankfully. I’m 21 now just to tell how long ago this was.
13 was the scariest thing to me when I went when I was younger. The loud noises and flashing lights were a terrifying addition to that dinosaur.
I like how all is singing about blood and gore but at the same time he is one of the best characters in the show
I remember seeing the "it's tough being a bug" show as a kid. I can still smell the stink bug's spray(they actually spray some kind of unpleasant smelling mist on the audience)
Heh, talk about stink bug!
6:10 Is it me or does the Lava monster look like a repurposed version of the alien from ExtraTERRORestrial Alien Encounter?
It actually looks like a redesign of Gohma from the wind waker tbh
4:54 Fun Fact: Although the Carnotaurus makes it’s appearance 4 times on Dinosaur, there is a fifth Carnotaurus in the photo area. You can see it if you look up and to the left after the photo is taken on the ride. The side lights of the Time Rover help to see it as they turn on when you start to leave. I was only able to notice it after I rode Dinosaur for the 7th time that day. (I ended up riding it 20 times on the same day)
17:38 you’re late, that YIAY released long ago.
I really wish they kept the stitch and alien ride. Stitch was an amazing ride for children and seeing the alien ride looks so cool to ride and experience when your older.
Ahh yes the floridan measuring system shaquille oneil
I still have a stuffed Big Al. He was my brother's favorite when he was 2, but when we finally made it to Disneyworld in 1986, Al wasn't singing Tex Ritter anymore. They had changed his song and all I remember was a line where he sang "I lost the love of my life/ and my Swiss Army knife" then he lamented "it was a good knife too". Personally, I loved his drawn out "Buh-loood on the saddle."
"...Just 8 years after it opened." That's still 4 times longer than Rocket Rods
I rode the carnotaurus ride, and it was fun and all, but TERRIFYING. The fact that you would stop before the carnotaurus scared the life out of me. And then, out of nowhere at the end, here comes mr. dino devil running at you like a pizza, and then a drop.
Dat fnaf mention of my favourite character tho XD
Edit: And ofc the Freddy mention as well
15:04 my guy really said the legend of zelda😭Had me crying man... keep up the good content I love it man... happy 2023
Actually, my aunt and cousin fell out in love with Big Al.
I was at Disney World when I was 7 in 2012 and the spiders in the Bugs Life show scared the heck outta me
Big Al wasn’t scary at all. It was awesome and a sacred part of my childhood. Big Al was very clearly played as comedy. He “came out of nowhere” because the joke was that he didn’t get the upbeat tenor of the show and butted in with a slow, old-time, depressing cowboy song. The other actors in the show shooed him off for this.
I used to sing his song at home as a kid, and to me he was nothing but funny.
K. But that doesn't automatically negate him being creepy to others. 🤷🏼♀️
Same, he was just a big old cuddly bear who didn’t quite get it LOL. I was 4 when CBJ opened and always loved it- even as teen punk rockers we’d be in there singing along. Big Al was my mom’s favorite, she thought he was hysterical.
I’m almost positive that leota on the haunted mansion in Orlando had glowing red eyes at one point but I can’t find any footage of it ever happening
Big al is still my thicc boi
17:00, "Gregory, I would like to introduce you to my great grandfather. He's not the social type."
When you were showing all the Tokyo Disney i was like “IVE BEEN ON THAT”
Its so fun btw and its so much cooler in person!!!
Who else watched the bugs life show then got hit with the spiders and had nightmares, I’m so glad it gone from Disney California adventure.
"Countdown To Extinction, not to be confused with the Megadeth album" ahh another thrash metal fan... 🤘
I remember the Xenomoroh section all to well, being that I refused to open my eyes when it started that section so I wouldn’t get scared
23:58 Replay button 🤣🤣🤣
I'm glad you included Monstro from Disneyland Paris. I got so scared when I went on that ride as a kid. I saw Pinocchio several times as a kid before going on the ride and he's always scared me
It’s kinda unbelievable to believe that Disney made such a dynamic and visually impressive animatronic that was the same size as the original King Kong
I don't think I'll forget that Alien animatronic for as long as I live. I was 7 when my family first went to Disney World, and my dad was really hyping up this ride, but my mom and my then 4-year old sister were sitting right under where the alien pops out. My sister was practically traumatized and Mom was kicking herself for not remembering that part before we got on the ride. I was fine, though; the only things that shook me up were Space Mountain and It's Tough to Be a Bug.
10:09 I knew it alien was disney
Well, it is now
I know it isn’t an animatronic, but the magic mirror in the Snowwhite walkthrough attraction in Efteling scared me so much.
