When you visit a Disney theme park a highlight is experiencing the world-class rides and

attractions but sometimes they do break down from time to time.

This can be very frustrating, but if you’re a huge Disney fan like myself, this can be

a dream come true.

Breaking down on a Disney ride, having to go through an in-show-exit is something we

all hope happens at one point or another.

A couple years ago we did a part one of this series which you can find in the card on the

right side but today we’ll be looking at breakdowns from 10 new rides.

So be sure to keep your hands, arms feet and legs inside as we count down the top 10 Disney

Ride Break Downs and In-Show Exits pt 2.

Number 10 We’re gonna start the list with Snow White’s

Scary Adventures at Disneyland.

This classic dark ride is a pretty scary Disney ride; as I kid I have memories of being terrified

of the witch and I’m sure many of you have the exact same memory as well.

I mean look at her.

Well you know when this ride isn’t scary?

{Off Camera} Well that’s not scary.

Yup, when you break down and get to walk through with the lights on during an in-show exit.

{Off Camera} You can still hear the music.

Wow, that’s so cool.

Don’t walk so fast,

Now this specific breakdown happened just before the ride closed for its refurbishment.

With these dark rides, it's fascinating to see how cheap and simple the sets look with

the lights on.

It’s just a lot of plywood flats painted with blacklight paint.

Then in this other breakdown video, it offers a cool glimpse into the lights and projectors

above the ride path.

{Off Camera}Say Let us go!

Number 9

{Off Camera} We’re stuck on Toy Story Mania-

If you’ve ever taken your eyes away from the screens in Toy Story Mania and had a look

around, the show building at Disney’s Hollywood Studios looks like a big warehouse with oversized

props.

When it breaks down you aren’t really given an experience that’s drastically different

but here’s what you can expect.

{Announcement} A cast member will be with you momentarily.

{Erik}Ohh we’re being evacuated.

Well first things first, the game stops then the lights come on while cast members begin

the in show exit.

{Erik} Well, if you ever wondered what it looked like inside Toy Story Mania with the

lights on.

It’s not much different.

Erik and his family here definitely made the most of the experience.

Above this area on the ride, there appears to be catwalks that would be used to access

lightning and other equipment needed to make the magic happen.

Then once a cast member came to release the restraints, it was a pretty much a straight

forward in-show exit.

Walking through you get to see just how wide the ride path really is, and it reinforces

that there really isn’t much to ride aside from the screens.

Number 8 Peter Pan’s Flight is a unique Omni-mover

system since you’re suspended in the air soaring over the scenery.

Now you may have had the ride stop and heard this-

{Announcement} This ride has stopped temporarily and will resume motion at any time.

Please remain seated for your own safety.

Thank you.

Usually, it does get moving again but there might be the rare time that you see the lights

come on.

{Announcement} Show to be turned off for effects to be turned down

{Off camera} We’re stuck

But now you’re probably curious, how do they get down?

Well, in Magic Kingdom’s Peter Pan’s Flight, you’ll find these wooden staircases all

throughout the ride.

They’re really only noticeable in this extreme low light footage and these are actually the

evacuation zones.

So in the event of an in-show exit, each ship is moved to the closest staircase, a cast

member then releases the safety bars and the guests are assisted out of the ships.

Next time you’re on Peter Pan’s Flight see if you can spot these staircases on the

ride.

Number 7 All of the Fantasyland Dark rides at Disneyland

do a fantastic job of utilizing small compact spaces like Mr. Toad’s wild ride.

{Off camera} So I’m stuck here on Mr. Taod with Mr. Ian Hink.

I've never seen this ride broken down before…or stopped.

Now it’s really cool to see this ride with the lights on, cause just like in Snow White’s

Scary Adventures, the sets are very simple and are just brought to life with the magic

of black light.

But what’s really interesting about breaking down in this specific room is what you hear.

Take a listen.

{Off camera} And the only thing we can hear-

I’m not sure where I am either.

Wait-

{Off Camera} Apparently that’s Alice in Wonderland.

Yea the Cheshire Cat’s here.

If you didn’t know, the Alice in Wonderland dark ride and Mr. Toad’s Wild ride share

the same show building.

Alice is on the 2nd floor and Toad is on the bottom floor.

So somewhere around this area in the Town Square room is this scene from Alice in Wonderland.

{Cheshire Cat} I’m not sure where I am either.

{Alice} Wait, don’t go, please

{Cheshire Cat} I’m not sure where I am either.

{Alice} Wait, don’t go, please

{Off camera} No all we can hear is Alice in Wonderland.

Yea

And even though the dialogue from the Cheshire Cat and Alice is prominently heard during

this breakdown, you don’t ever hear it on the actual ride with the Toad music, dialogue,

and sound effects.

Number 6 So there was this one time I was stopped right

here in front of Figment while he just stared into my soul.

I was hoping the ride was gonna break down and then the car started moving again and

my dreams were absolutely crushed.

BUT it did break down pretty much in the exact same spot while Paging Mr. Morrow and the

WDW Couple were on the ride.

So they were stuck in front of Figment, the ride started moving again and then their car

bumped into the car in front and was pushing it.

{Off Camera} Oh My lord.

We just battered the car in front of us.

They are scooting us out of here

Now it's not as bad as it sounds since the front and back of the trains have these bumpers,

so you could say it was just bumper to bumper traffic.

{Announcement} Oh, Dr. Channing here.

Um bit of delay, terribly sorry.

Umm- ah please remain seated your vehicle will begin moving again at any moment.

Thank you.

{Off camera} This is awesome!

{Announcement} And oh, ahh.

Please continue to umm, ummm, fly.

Once the lights come on a cast member comes to rescue the guests and they proceed with

the in-show exit.

This lights on walkthrough offers a great glimpse into the ride track which is not the

typical ride system used in a dark ride.

Then once they evacuate into the last scene it ends how an in show exit should end with

true Disney fans.

{Singing} Imagination.

A Dream.

Can be.

A Dream come true.

With just one spark for me and you.

{Off camera} I love the ending.

Number 5 Smugglers Run takes you into the cockpit of

the Millennium Falcon and since the graphics are rendered in realtime, this attraction

is pretty much a giant video game.

Now there might be the odd time where the game slightly glitches like this.

Or you could be on your descent back into Batuu, and it glitches out big time like right

here.

{Off camera} Oh-wait!

Reset?

Well, that’s awkward.

What Happened?

We should probably do it again just to get the full experience.

So you might be wondering what am I looking at?

Well, what you see is the Skybox.

In the gaming world, a skybox is created to allow a three-dimensional world to exist around

the main environment which in this case would be the terrain and buildings of Batuu.

So this scene with the clouds and dirt road was created as a base where the only part

you see on the ride are the clouds themselves.

If you look at these two stills you can see the exact same cloud formation from the breakdown

exists on the ride.

Now the attraction operates on a large turntable with 7 individual cockpits as is seen here

from the Imagineering Story but what happens if you’re in one of the other 6 cockpits

while there are delays and complications.

{Passenger} Oh we broke down!

We broke down!

Well, Disney developed sequences with Hondo and Chewbacca that keep you entertained until

you can exit the cockpit.

{Hondo} So here we are, passing sometime.

R-5 will play you some music

{Droid sounds}

{Hondo} Or instead he’s gonna make noise.

{Guests Laugh}

Number 4 We all know that Big Thunder Mountain Railroad

is the Wildest Ride in the Wilderness, and when the ride breaks down at Disneyland it

can be a wild time.

Here the happy Place Explorers got stuck on the very last lift hill with the dynamite.

{Announcement} Attention show effects will be turned off for effects to be turned on.

Outside to be gated.

{Off camera} How bout that

And when this happens it only means one thing

So, are we gonna walk off?

You know it.

Now the only places you would actually get stuck on Thunder Mountain would be at the

break runs before the lift hills or on the actual lift hills themselves.

Like right here.

Now safety is always first.

{Cast Member} Now the way we’re gonna do it is one row at a time so please stay seated

until you are told to stand up.

One of the most interesting parts of this in show exit is learning that the last lift

hill and first lift hill are actually right beside each other.

{Guest} that’s something you don’t get to do every day.

No, I know, right?

It’s really cool seeing this perspective of the ride.

After they crossed the track at the designated crossing point, they were led to the exit

and given a Fastpass.

Number 3 Dinosaur at Disney’s Animal Kingdom is probably

one of the darkest Disney rides there is…maybe a little too dark, but if you’re faced with

the ride breaking down then you get a much different perspective of the attraction.

{Announcement} Attention time travellers.

Due to technical difficulties, we must suspend all-time travel tours at this time.

Please remain seated in your vehicle.

A Dino-Institute technician will be with you momentarily.

Again, please remain seated thank you.

With the lights on in this first scene which is usually very loud—

it's eerily quiet with subtle movements coming from the animatronics.

Once a cast member came to assist the guests for the in-show exit, walking through this

area lets you see just how detailed the sets are.

It’s a shame we can’t see more of this detail on the ride since its so darn dark.

Alright come on lady, that’s not our dino, go go go.

With the ride path being so wide, this was a pretty straight forward in show exit that

just took the guests back to the load area to exit Dinosaur.

Number 2

{Cast Member} You guys ever been stuck on a ride before?

The Incredicoaster can be found on Pixar Pier but this next breakdown is gonna take us back

in time to when it was California Screamin.

Like Thunder Mountain, the common places to get stuck on the coaster are on the lift hills,

and if you have a fear of heights, this experience might not be your cup of tea.

{Music}

And when you get stuck on the lift hill there’s only one way down.

{Maintenance Cast Member} I’m making sure it’s safe to drop.

Safety is their priority.

They needed to move the train backwards for the evacuation and a safety harness was placed

on the back of the train to ensure it wouldn’t move any further.

{Cast Member} Alright folks here we go!

We’re gonna be moving in 3, 2, 1.
