When I rode space mountain, I was always aware of the beams and walkways and stuff being closer than I would have liked to my head. I couldn't really enjoy the ride, even though I knew I wasn't going to be decapitated, because it felt a bit too close for comfort. I feel validated in seeing that it was as close as I remember with the lights on.
@@vernorexia682 I could see their shadows in front of the star lights, I think, although it's been a while since I've been on it so I don't remember it perfectly
My parents made me ride this with them when I was a kid and I was terrified. I screamed until the glue that was holding my metal wire expander to my molars cracked. The expander then flew out of my mouth. I told my Mom what happened when I got off the ride and she didn't believe me until she looked herself. She would not stop laughing when she found it was actually missing. It's been 20 years since then... I wonder if it's still laying around somewhere under the tracks.
I saw Space Mountain with the lights on one time in the early 90s when the ride broke down and we had to exit. That's what all those little walkways are for next to the track.
I was the same when I was kid. As an adult I conquered my fear and went on it and it was so cool!!! I am glad they have these videos to show people the ride before. My biggest fear has always been the anticipation and the building of the ride in my mind.
I first went on that ride when I was 7 years old in 1976 and that ride scared me. I went on it again in High School and I had a lot fun. I’m 54 now and I still like roller coasters but my riding days are over. I wouldn’t do very well on a fast roller coaster these days.
It was the first rollercoaster I ever I rode on because rollercoasters always looked terrifying to me, it being in the dark for some reason made me feel less anxious. I absolutely love it, one of my favorite rides in the park.
My parents took me on this when I was 6. It made me cry, so for a while after that their threat to me if I was bad was “we are going to go put you on Space Mountain!” 🤣🤣🤣. My parents..... God love em!
I just shared your comment with my daughter whom I took on it the day before she turned 7 (so, two days ago). She was nearly traumatized, so it made her feel better that Space Mountain made another 6-year-old cry.
As u should tho! I love my parents too lol. And my sister cried when she went with me here so now I threatened her that I would force her here if she behaves wrong 😂
I went on when I was six too -- it turned me off completely from coasters. Just went on it again for the second time with my husband - still a bit scared but, will ride again. Watching it with the lights on helps.
I've lost count on how many times I have ridden this ride and it always drove me crazy while in the dark. Once I now see the lights on, I think, there's nothing to this.
@@starjax5393 florida and california are cloned so this is one of those paris does have inversion (i believe its got a corkscrew, sidewinder, and something else)
@@elijahrock3914 they're definitely *not* cloned. Space Mountain at the Magic Kingdom has two tracks in a larger structure with mirrored layouts that are both different from the one at Disneyland.
I rode this back in 2019 when we went to Disneyworld and it was so much fun definitely worth the 2 hour wait (went during Thanksgiving week) my aunt and mom screamed their heads off during this ride It was too funny 😂😂😂😂
One of my fave till this day. I leave the seat in a litttee lose… No not a little , a lot ! lol 🤣 I leave it lose about 4 clicks before it touches my stomach. Hell of a ride 🤘🏽
I just noticed that there is some sort of second lifthill at the end of the ride somewhere near the unloading station, can someone reply to this message and tell me what it is for?
I wish I could like this ride, but my cousins and I went to Disneyland together back in June and this was the first time I was gonna go on Space Mountain even tho I’ve been to Disneyland like a million times, but I went on this and I was so nauseous after I was seeing dots🤢🤢so sad I can’t enjoy it cause everyone loves it
This video doesn’t do the ride justice. In the dark it will feel like the fastest roller coaster you’ve ever ridden… I rode this for the first time since i was 7 and it still made me feel dizzy (although the first time was the California version)
I'm guessing there are hidden projectors because how on earth do they add the stuff for Halloween if the coaster is just in a big open room with the lights out and one of those LED's shining through pipes trick to create stars.
Space mountain with the lights on is cool. I only had like a few rides with the lights on. It's crazy how close the track is. I'm so glad I'm a pass holder and live like a hour and a half from it. It's my favorite Disney coaster by the way.
@@lessismore8533 I forgot I even made this comment 4 years ago. Lol. But I respect your opinion on it. When it comes to the lights being off. It's fun like that as well because you don't know when the drop is coming.
What camera did you use? I was able to film space mountain like 15 years ago. They are much more strict with cameras on coasters now, unless you have Attractions Mag access? Pretty clear and steady shooting for such a jittery ride :]
i’m terrified of roller coasters but i’m going to disney this summer and i kind of want to to this one because my friend wants to... should i ??!?!?!?)?
The perfect roller coaster in my opinion. Enough scaffolding to help height phobes like me, fast but no stomach dropping inclines and a million billion times better than the Florida version.
Would love to see this with lights and holographic imagery of the cosmos (like the pillars of creation and such). Like that scene in Dr. Strange when he’s traveling through the different dimensions. 🤔
Everett Young although I often have a fear of coasters I found space mountain great. The lights are off so it doesn't feel that fast. It's disorienting but great because there's not that much light but you can still see the stars
@@juliannealon-val184 its very fun. No sudden drops. At some point you get some speed but not mindbogglingly fast. It’s a very cool and mesmerising coaster. Don’t worry I almost backed out when I realised it was a proper roller coaster.
@@juliannealon-val184 I feel like the last drop at the end would really get me. everything else doesn't seem that bad. I am really bad when it comes to coasters though, pretty small drops give me panic attacks.

Crazy how seemingly ordinary(but still fun) this seems with the lights on compared to how mind blowing it feels/rides in the darkness
Because they actualy have fans that blow on you to make it seem like you’re going faster
I like it in the dark
Just goes to show how sometimes the simplest effects end up being the best!
space mountain was always a kiddie coaster. I hate roller coasters and rember riding this at 7 years old and not being scared
@@overnightclassic2that’s funny I still get scared of this ride haven’t gotten back since. But I will attempt it again just for my niece.
One of my favorites ever.. But lights on would take the fun away!! For me anyway lol

Wait how could you tell there were beams if it was dark?
@@vernorexia682 I could see their shadows in front of the star lights, I think, although it's been a while since I've been on it so I don't remember it perfectly
There's actually a coaster nerd term for this. Its called a head chopper. Adds to the sense of danger.
@@goldstarchoice oh cool! I love learning niche terminology
Finally a high quality video of Space Mountain with the Lights On.
It's one on Disneyland Paris?

I like how it doubles as storage. Ground level you can see ladders and welding tanks just chilling.

Probably been crushed already 😅
They cleaned it up
Probably swept up and trashed the night you lost it lol
It’s also worth noting that the ride’s high-energy music, with its crazy violin runs played at 200 BPM, isn’t being pumped directly into our skulls.
I saw Space Mountain with the lights on one time in the early 90s when the ride broke down and we had to exit. That's what all those little walkways are for next to the track.
I went on this when I was 6.. I thought I was actually in space
Pab2ito I would love to think that
Disney magic at work sons.
Eh_Dude lol
6?! I’m 10 and I’m too scared.
Sameeee
i thought i remembered it being way more intense with the lights off..
it was
It’s because they have fans that blow on you to make it seem faster and when the lights are on it blows the illusion
Mhm

i literally thought it was a loop in the end of this lmao
I was there two days ago, and ten years ago. It’s kinda cool to see it with the lights.
i was there last night
I think I'll wait a little bit longer to go on this ride because I don't do well with moving in pitch black areas
What part does it take your pic in?
How did you get the lights on?? Just wondering because route people on it
Why was the lights on? I'd pay to ride it with the lights on, but that's my engineering side kicking in.
I'd pay to ride it with the lights on too!
Just have someone break the ride down while you're inside of it. My family did it once accidentally and shut the ride down for like an hour
@@andrewc1199 You do realize you're paying to ride it with the lights off as well ;)
Probably my favorite ride of all time.
The 8 dislikes are people who got kicked out
I swear idk why it felt more intense than what it actually is
One of the scariest roller coasters I've been on is a simulator. Thought I was going to break my neck. 😅
I always loved this ride as a kid. It was such a fun roller coaster 🎢
did the ride change in the pass years?
Is this at Disneyland California?
Nope Florida
@cat1n282 this is not in Florida
@@JRBowling1997it is
I regret sticking my hands outside of the ride now after watching this
Why. Your arms would need to be 7.5 feet long . Not arms span but one single arm . Average arm length is 2 feet
It could be a themed ride like this too, like Industrial Moon Mountain.
I actually thought this was 10x more intense, higher up, and did loops when the lights were off. But it’s actually just a casual roller coaster 😳😳
disney land paris has inversions - i believe this is from florida or california !

Same with the Mummy Ride at Universal. Its intense in the dark but with the lights on, its a kiddie coaster.
Nice with the lights on.
細かいところまで丁寧に作りこんでいますね。素晴らしい作品です。
Never underestimate the speed of hyper space mountain
This is one of the best rides at Disney 🎢
how do people get videos with the lights on?
Ask the technic chief worker Tom M or a colleque, maybe, they turn the lights on for a round or two.
How did you get to go on the ride with the lights on
excited to go on this in december
Are the lights still off for 2021??
Dont know why I’m watching this I’m still closing my eyes and holding on tight.
This ride is 10,000 times more amazing with the lights off and star field on
Exactly!
this is it.. when i was 10 i went on this ride and cried
Same
I was the same age and I loved it and I still do
I rode this back in 2019 when we went to Disneyworld and it was so much fun definitely worth the 2 hour wait (went during Thanksgiving week) my aunt and mom screamed their heads off during this ride

is this Disney Orlando?? it’s so different to the one in Paris that one goes upside down, I thought they would’ve been the same

What Space mountain is this so in which Disney Park?

It looks more fun this way
Deoxys 386 yes

It’s also great at Christmas time.
Two totally different rides with and without lights

Hi! Can I use this clip in a roller coaster video? I will give full credit.
Wait so it doesn’t take place in space? I was lied to.
How’d you get lights on?
This is the only Indoor coaster that's scarier with the lights on because of all the headchoppers.
great ride!👏
I once rode it with the lights on it was crazy
Was it a mistake?
I'm guessing there are hidden projectors because how on earth do they add the stuff for Halloween if the coaster is just in a big open room with the lights out and one of those LED's shining through pipes trick to create stars.
which is more scarier this one or the Mummy ride at Universal Studios Singapore?

NO!!! employees get on the ride when the park closes for inspection

Weird how I could handle this ride like it was nothing when I was 6, yet all these people went when they were about 8-10.
