So in the bathrooms, the murals look painted and not like wallpaper or whatever, and they look very similar in style which leads me to believe that a long time ago one sad mural artist had a similar experience traveling across these United States to paint every rainforest cafe bathroom in the country

[@thebadpoet]

It’s more likely one artist painted a sample mural design, and freelance artists were hired in every location to paint them. It’s like scenic painting in theater, the designer hands you a small version and says “make it big” and you have to match the style. Your idea is much more fun, of course.

@EddyBurback - I remember in early 1998, my dad was a news reporter and was doing a story about the soon-to-open Palisades Mall in NY. He took me there one night to stroll around the empty mall, a month before its grand opening. I was 10. There was a Rainforest Cafe. The man there turned on all the animatronics and let me roam around for a half hour. An endless, unbreakable bond was formed ❤ PS - That one is closed now. ☹️

[@kellinomnom]

Hahaha I laughed so hard throughout this. The crazy volume of the animatronics and storms 😂😂😂

[@ZombieTurtleInvasion]

absolutely love that the first time eddy shows us a "thunderstorm" you can very, very clearly hear a staff member in the background yelling "VOLCANO"

[@victoria642]

or was it tornado

[@prettysparklez1195]

Tbh i kinda thought it was "Bojangles"

[@nattyice23]

Volcano's the name of a giant dessert you can buy there. The staff have to shout it when they bring it over, there's like sparklers on it and stuff, it's a whole big thing, don't ask me how I know the Rainforest Cafe lore

[@ZombieTurtleInvasion]

@@nattyice23 thank you for your service

[@cypressk3838]

@@nattyice23 thank you, i figured the person just got rain forest cafe confused with trex cafe which has "volcanos" + "meterorites/asteroids" instead of rainstorms

[@sofcarolq]

my favorite thing about the Disney Springs rainforest Cafe is it's like a 2 min walk from t-rex Cafe, which is literally the same concept but with Dinosaurs. Instead of a thunder storm every 20 minutes it's a meteor shower.

[@TheUnholyHandGrenade]

And it's even louder. Ow.

[@noelle_tv]

Yes! I remember eating there a few times with my family when we went on vacations to Orlando. I vaguely recall shutting my eyes and ears every time it happened. The worst part was that we were almost always seated in the blue section with a T-Rex skeleton stuck in the “ice” and every time a meteor shower happened, the room would turn hellfire red and blare the sound effects of dying dinosaurs to the max. Scared me so bad as a kid, but I think I remember liking the stuff on the kids menu.

[@Marbo12f]

Hmmm. Thinking about opening a chain restaurant of Space Cafes. Toystory acting like that idea wasn't rad as hell.

[@samgort]

33:31 I CANNOT BELIEVE YOU FOUND THIS GAS STATION. I once did a road trip with my dad to go to Albuquerque and on our way, we stopped because a snowstorm really made our trip difficult (more so considering we were on a Harley trike), and my dad found this gas station. It was seriously the strangest most weirdest gas station I have ever been in in my entire life and I love that you found this whilst driving through Utah 😂

[@ev.8972]

I think rainforest cafes really capture a certain aspect of growing up where all of a sudden a place that seemed so magical turns into a rundown sad fishless fish tank of an experience. It’s such a weird feeling to think back on all the times you went to the mall and it was just slowly falling into disrepair more and more each time you visited and you didn’t really notice it until it was too late. Also the sign in front of the Ontario location used to have like a waterfall feature which was pretty cool

[@yungpapi]

And the 🐊 used to come to life and pretend to open its mouth

[@superfluousfreak]

yeah i remember the waterfall thing too! its so pathetic looking whenever i pass by it now

@@yungpapi They actually fixed the crocodile at the Dallas location. It looks around and even stands up again. Been over a decade since I had seen it do it.

At Disney Springs in Orlando, there’s another restaurant, the T-Rex Cafe, owned and operated by the same company that does Rainforest Cafe. It’s basically the same thing except Dinosaur-themed. Instead of a thunderstorm, there’s an astroid strike every 20 minutes, with all the dinosaur and mammoth animatronics losing their shit constantly. Used to really scare the crap out of me as a kid
