MORE DISNEY TRIVIA



Trying to find some more

  • Epcot has solar powered Lawn Mowers
  • At the end of Kali River Rapids, you float by sculptures of elephants. Their trunks are raised. As you go under them you get sprayed with water. Just before the elephants, there is a bridge. There are two buttons on the bridge that control the water spray.
  • There is a 5 legged mountain goat on the mural at the Grand Canyon Concourse in the Contemporary Resort.
  • At the train station in the Magic Kingdom. Up on one of the shelves you can see Aladdin's lamp as well as other characters belongings waiting to be picked up
  • When you go to Sir Mickey's Shop in Fantasyland look at where the roof meets the walls. You will see Willie the Giant from Mickey and the Beanstalk peeking into the shop
  • Request from a CM to ride with the pilot (right in the front) of the monorail.
  • In MgM on the street in the New York neighborhood you can hear gangsters talking and gun shots inside the buildings.
  • Beaches N Creme restaurant there's a cool old Wurlitzer jukebox full of Rock N Roll classics that plays for free.
  • On Star Tours, right as your leaving the droid room entering the staging area look up and you'll see 2 mechanical birds; a neat homage to the 2 crows on Splash Mt. just before the big drop.
  • The very last tombstone before you enter the Haunted Mansion moves. Her name is Leota and she opens her eyes suddenly, looks around, then closes them.
  • Tower of Terror at MGM is 199 feet tall. It was supposed to be 200 feet but for a structure 200 feet tall you need lights at the top for airplanes to see.
  • In the Tower of Terror, the luggage in the lobby is a complete set made from genuine alligator skin. While looking through a 1930s furniture catalog, Imagineers decided to call the company to see if they were still in business. They were, and Walt Disney Imagineering had them reproduce two settees for the lobby. It is said that Imagineers had mahjongg players set up the game in the lobby so guests who know how to play the game can see that it is authentic. The top speed for The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror is said to be about 39mph. When you board the elevator, on the left side, outside of the elevator itself, is an inspection certificate that's dated Oct. 31, 1939, and signed by "Cadwallader". Cadwallader was a character in the sixth Twilight Zone episode "Escape Clause" who actually turned out to be the Devil himself. the inspection certificate number is 10259, which is cool because The Twilight Zone's first episode ("Where Is Everybody") premiered on Oct. 2, 1959.
  • In Pirates of the Caribbean, there is a ghost by the name of George. He was an Imagineer who died during the building of the ride, supposedly IN the building. If the workers do not say goodbye to George every night as the last thing they do before closing the attraction, there are technical difficulties the next morning
  • In the AK if you stand facing Tusker house and listen you can hear the landlady banging on the door in the room upstairs trying to get in.
  • In the loading area of Kali River Ride look for the real Geicko in one of the cabinets in the waiting quenue
  • the red, yellow, and white pipes above the load area at "Dinosaur" are for Ketchup, Mustard, and Mayonaise and that the letters on each pipe are their chemical formulas
  • In the MK if you go to The Partners Statue in front of the castle and look at the ring on Walt's hand, you will see a hidden Mickey(ABOVE)
  • In the Great Movie Ride the Gangsters License plat reads "021-429 " Signifying the Valentines day Massacre, FEBRUARY 14,1929
