Rides - interesting, fun facts
Save

On someones thread a few days back someone said that when you're on The Haunted Mansion ride and you go down the steep drop backwards, you are actually falling out of the attic window and that is actually when you 'die'. Thats why the ghosts like you and there is a party. I have never noticed this and think that it is fab and wondered what else I have missed on other rides. Are there any fun facts like this that anyone knows about for other rides?? ;-)

I have one,but it's not exactly a secret. If you tour Minnie Mouse's cottage in Toontown,you can make "popcorn" by pushing the button on her microwave.

You can also "bake a cake" by pushing the button on her regular oven. It's neat-o...the cake rises,and makes a silly noise,then it falls again.

It's worth being patient in there,if you have little ones. Really fun to see the popcorn jump around,and the cake rise. It gets crowded in there,so lots of kids miss this. ;+)

Well, there are TONS of secrets about the parks and the layouts but about the rides... Hmmm....

Well, the Tower of Terror isn´t actualy a FREE FALL Tower.

You never drop but the cart is being PULLED down and pushed up.

The "pull down" is 1,5 times the normal gravity.

OOOH... I got one more :-)

The layout of Pirates of the Carribean was actually without any drop...

The little drop in the beginning was neccessary because the ride has to go under the rails of the Disney World Railroad...
