Sometime in the early 1980's, I was on the Disneyland, Under the Sea ride, and the Disney employees forgot to close the opening hatch. It was at night so none of the passengers noticed. If it had been during the day, daylight coming in from the top hatch would have been very noticeable. When we went through the waterfall many gallons of water came pouring through the open hatch. People closest to the hatch got drenched and many people started screaming, thinking that we were sinking, even though the craft was on rails and never really submerged. I always liked this ride, but that was probably the most fun I ever had on it.

I was a big fan of the 20,000 Leagues Disney movie as a kid, and likewise was super excited when I heard about the ride when my family was prepping to take its first trip to Disneyland. For me though, this was the mid/late 90's and so instead of being repurposed it had actually been closed down entirely and replaced with the Ariel meet-and-greet, which, needless to say, did not exactly do anything to alleviate the disappointment child me felt.

When something is long, that could deter a lot of people from starting to watch in the first place, not out of a lack of interest, but because it's hard for many people to find much uninterested time. When my daughter's at school, I'm working and watch shorter videos when I take a break. When she's home, it's, again, shorter videos since it's just plain difficult to get much time without interruption. When videos are shorter, even when multiple parts, it accommodates more viewers.

I actually like the multi-part videos more. It means regular uploads instead of waiting forever for one video. The only real downside is poorly structured videos leading to odd cuts between videos, which Defunctland hasn't really had an issue with, especially with his recent Jim Henson DefunctTV Miniseries which is very well structured for the multi-video format.

transtremm I think everyone has a different reason, but the one heard most often is that his efforts to revive the park and save the financial future of Disney he ended up changing the company's philosophy. Everything was made about budget and more importantly, how much money Disney could make with each product it produced. Most companies do that, and if Eisner hadn't started it someone else would have. Personally I dislike how he halted production of Beastly Kingdom to make Dino Land and a Dinosaur ride--ironically with all of Eisner's philosophy of making money, he backed a ride based off a movie that did TERRIBLY at the box office.

I went on this the first time in 1960, and at least one more time between then and 1964. At some point I read that there were individual air vents blowing moving air on people from the bottom of each viewing porthole, since this supposedly would prevent claustrophobia. Having never experienced that, I was puzzled that people even might get panicky on such a low-stress ride. Because of these vents, I don't remember the interior being stuffy or hot. I'm pretty sure I must've noticed the surface of the water was just above us, but I'm sure I didn't care. The only thing I really remember seeing were the fake mermaids. Overall, I liked the subs.

The Stoned Videogame Nerd It wasn’t that hard to get in and out. The line was single file and each guest must walk down a tight staircase to get into the vehicle. There was no handicap entrance back then. As a kid, I loved this ride because you could sit and relax for a few minutes after waiting in line (and sun) for such a long time. I remember that inside each porthole there was a tiny hole that blew air onto the window to keep it from fogging up from your breath (mine never worked and my window was always steamed up) 🙁

Please feature Horizons at EPCOT. My favorite dark ride of all time, - an intoxicating, positive view of the future. I truly love what you're doing on this channel and it captures an idea that's long been on my mind so well - What if a park could recreate all the great, lost rides of the past in one place? - that's it's almost eerie to me. Awesome work, man!

I remember the Submarine ride in the Florida location. My grandparents lived there in the 70's and 80's and every year we would go down to visit and take a trip to disney. It was one of my favorite rides as a kid. It was near space Mountain I think. Recently on Google Earth I was checking out disney and I didn't see that ride where I thought it would have been. I never considered that they deep six'd it. Knowing the kind of people that worked there I wouldn't be surprised if the captain really was hallucinating. When I got a little older I went to bush gardens in Tampa and me and a friend dropped acid. THe rides and stuff were great but I don't recommend standing in line in the hot sun while tripping. It was a nightmare because we were so blasted and even the simplest fake statue or a poster was the most amazing thing we ever saw. I look back at that now and I don't have any idea how a 15 year old me could drop acid at an amusement park. I wouldn't even be able to handle dropping acid now in the comfort and privacy of my own home.....well maybe just one more trip.

I remember going on this ride. The mermaids were having problems with guests lobbing trash and cups at them. They were not there the next time my family visited. Disneyana was a small shop on Main Street that sold small models of the famous submarine, but they were soon out of stock, and enthusiasts were left wondering.

My parents started taking us to Disneyland in 1961, and we children loved Submarine Voyage. Then we heard about WDW, but by that time, we were almost teenagers. In fact, we moved out of LA to Northern California in the summer of '71, so we didn't get back to Disneyland 'til almost 10 years later. But going to WDW was always a dream. I really wanted to see the 20,000 Leagues version of the submarine ride. But it was gone before I ever got to Florida. Thanks for your intro. I'm going to look at your second one in this series right now.

Visited the park in 1962 and 1964, was on this ride once. While I was aware the "sub" ran on a track, until seeing this video I thought the sub went down a slight hill in order to bring the water level above the windows. Have to admit that even though I was in high school I was disappointed because I could not get "behind the sceen" to learn first hand how the rides/illusions worked. That lead to studies in mechanical engineering and employment in prototype development. Thank you Walter E. Disney!

Ah yes, the ride that made me realize I have claustrophobia! I was just a kid and had no idea why I was freaking out. FYI, 20,000 leagues was the distance the submarine traveled while under the sea, nearly 7000 miles. It was never supposed to be the depth. Congrats on joining the 1% of people who knows that.

I miss 20K. That ride spurred me to read the book, and get my first literary crush on Captain Nemo. (Until I dumped him for Sherlock Holmes.) I wish they'd resurrect the ride somehow the way they did in Tokyo DisneySea. That version of the ride sidesteps the maintenance problems of an underwater ride by not actually having the vessels travel underwater. Instead, the windows are very thin tanks that fill with water, giving the illusion of being underwater while the trench the vessels ride through is completely dry. They could have that in WDW somewhere, as well as a more upscale version of TDS' Vulcania Restaurant (also featuring a Captain Nemo who'd play the organ and sing to entertain guests while they eat). I just don't want to see them forgetting the older classics in favor of new movies--especially one which really put Disney live-action on the map and was a crowning achievement in special effects.
