Description: Subscribe for CONSTANT updates! Ride Space Mountain as it would have appeared before the major rehab for the 50th celebration. Ride shot with night vision. Space Mountain opened in 1977, invigorating a decade-old Tomorrowland as Disneyland's second roller coaster. The idea for Anaheim's ride originated in the mid 1960s, during Walt Disney's lifetime, as a way to energize the aging Tomorrowland. The project was shelved until the success of Space Mountain in Florida. After two years of construction, the $20 million complex opened May 27 including the roller coaster, 1,100-seat Space Stage, 670-seat Space Place (fast food restaurant) and Starcade.[2] Six Mercury astronauts attended Space Mountain's opening — Scott Carpenter, Gordon Cooper, Sen. John Glenn, Wally Schirra, Alan Shepard, and Deke Slayton.[1] Largely due in part to the opening of Space Mountain, the Memorial Day day attendance record was set, with 185,500 guests over the three-day period.[2] Space Mountain at Disneyland was designed by Bill Watkins of Walt Disney Imagineering. It was different from the WDW design because of space limitations. The attraction continued operating without much change: sponsors would come and go, and various minor changes, including the addition of a "Speedramp" (moving sidewalk) in the entrance, happened without fanfare. In 1995, FedEx became the official sponsor for the ride, sparking a number of significant alterations. The queue area was revamped with television monitors looping safety videos, the loading station had a new Audio-Animatronic robot FedEx worker, and other scenic areas were modeled to include FedEx trademarks.[2] In 1996, composer Aarin Richard and show producer Eddie Sotto teamed up to create the first on-board music track for a Disney roller coaster. The creative vision was to fuse two iconic musical forms of the 1960's — sci-fi horror music and surf music — into a sensory ride experience. All of the music written for the show is based on "Le Carnival Des Animaux: Aquarium" ( The Carnival of the Animals ), written by Camille Saint-Saëns. The first section of the ride's music is synthesized and entirely devoted to the sci-fi aspect as the rockets leave the station to begin their slow climb to the top. After the vehicles have crested, a rocking surf rendition of the piece kicks in as gravity pulls the vehicles down through the ride's interweaving turns, hills, and dips. (Guitarist Dick Dale was brought into the Disney Imagineering recording studio to play his famous surf guitar riffs for this section of the music.) As the rockets reenter the loading station, a brief musical finale concludes the experience with a soft, synthesized rendition of "Aquarium." In 1997, the exterior of the mountain was painted green and gold to match the recent facelift to Tomorrowland. In 2003, the mountain was painted white again.[2] The ride closed suddenly on April 10, 2003, with an announcement that it would remain closed until Disneyland's 50th anniversary. The ride had become unstable and would need a complete track replacement.[2] On June 25, 2005 Disneyland surprised its guests by announcing that the reopening of Space Mountain would open early on July 15, instead of the projected November date.[3][4] On July 15, 2005 (with "soft openings" starting 1 July), only two days before Disneyland's official 50th Anniversary, Space Mountain reopened from a major refurbishment that started in April, 2003. A re-opening ceremony was held that day which featured a guest speaker, Neil Armstrong, who received a plaque that day which said "Presented to Mr. Neil Armstrong for his courage and adventurous spirit that continues to inspire all mankind to reach for the stars". The plaque also features the Disney quote "It's kinda fun to do the impossible". The new Space Mountain features new rocket sleds, a new queue, new music (composed by Michael Giacchino), new special effects and a storyline.

Description: http://www.waltdisneyworldhacks.com This is the Halloween Hayride that takes place at Fort Wilderness, the campground of Walt Disney World. This was filmed on October 25, 2006. The setting was, obviously, very dark, so some portions are very dark. Most was filmed using nightvision and, as such, you might see a few focus issues, but you can, at least, get a good idea of what this mysterious event is all about. Lots of fun and a completely different atmosphere from most of the parks.

Description: Disney 2007, featuring Samantha's reaction on the Small World ride. The best reactions were captured on semi-night vision which don't show up on youtube's lessened quality, so only the ultra-night vision shots are here. The fireworks at the beginning were shot from the vantage of my aunt and uncle's front yard. The park she is playing in later on in the video is the site where 20,000 Leagues Under The Sea used to be - which was being turned into a Little Mermaid ride, but apparently that has been scrapped. In that park Samantha is playing in Pooh's house. Pooh of course lives under the name of Saunders (the most cryptic line in children's literature).

Description: Part 1 of 2 (hope i dont get sued by atticus apparel) part 2 link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KaJKMqxzkDs Hey Everyone! Welcome to my show...well if you'd consider it a show i guess. I'll be posting some videos of me and my friends acting stupid, hanging out, or in this case posting stickers for a band i love. Known as The Action Design myspace.com/theactiondesign theactiondesign.com I joined the action design's street team, known as "The Action Figures" in order to help out. And maybe get a few awesome stickers of course haha. And i decided that in my town there are dozens of bands posters and stickers that are posted all over, so i decided to try to get a heavily crowded area to notice this band...so i thought.. UNIVERSAL STUDIOS!! of course haha so i went and well unfortanetly i had a limited amount of stickers to post there so i only put a few ones up, and 2 on 2/3 rides that they have there. And of course with my luck the employees told me to put away my camera whenever i'd take it out, so i had trouble videotaping the post, AND i dont have nightvision on my cam so that blows. But luckily i live So Cal home of tourist areas. So i decided to go to Disneyland for the next mission, and after getting more stickers here it is. But theres a few things about this video. i didnt upload all the postings cause 1. my camera is hassle to upload. (no memory card) 2. my camera doesnt have night vision. 3. movie maker told me i couldnt create this video cause it was too big. 4. some of them werent all that exciting. 5. and finally my camera man jorge didnt record all tapings. But its okay i'd do the same some of the stuff we missed were only cause we were off guard. Anyway, im sure next mission will be better.
