[SECRETS REVEALED] Tower Of Terror | How Did Mel Brooks Movie Young Frankenstein Inspire This Ride?

[@nzjonty]

One day I’m so hopeful to ride this! Love the theming, history and execution of this ride! Very cool edit on this video, great work guys 🙌🏼

[@BMWguy206]

Thank you Chris for hosting this video. Thank you Thumbnail Dave for doing the camera work and a big huge thank you to Alyssa LaBotz for the awesome video editing. The "Chris' Comedy Hour" really made me laugh.

[@provostparkpass]

You are the best. 💙💚

[@ellespence6068]

I would love to see Chris do an actual Disney Comedy Special. The puns are too good!

[@superpugplayz4246]

This video was great! Thanks for letting me say hi while you guys were filming this at Tower of Terror.

[@gargantuaism]

Ah my first Disney voice job!! Glad to be mentioned. Thanks.

[@joeleon5009]

Fantastic video Chris, I loved it. I never knew this inspired Young Frakenstein and the ventriloquist doll is amazing. This Disney trivia has been so valuable and educational to my Disney life!

[@traceg3021]

Awesome! Great video!!

[@nathanielcardona283]

My art teacher for stage and set design on college helped with this project, his job was the boiler room and to detail it the the way it is, when the ride first opened the boiler room had mist and had some crazy effects that would freak people out, they soon had to turn off most of the effects in there for scaring little kids

[@MeowMeow_95_]

Goddamn kids ruining EVERYTHING!!!

[@joelawson3638]

as a father i wouldn't let my young kids ride this ride to many twilight zone themes not age-appropriate to me I would my kids ride it after they turn at least 12 yrs old

[@nathanielcardona283]

Joe Lawson I know there’s a lot of episodes in the 50/60s episodes that are pretty scary, the talking Tina doll episode got me messed up for awhile i was probably 7

One of my favorite rides! Even though I still get scared every time I'm boarding that elevator 👻

[@CreedonJessica]

So glad you did this ride! One of my very favorites!

[@christinehorror8178]

The most beautiful theme building next to the many haunted mansions. Fun ride we all miss in California. Guardians is fun but still miss the bell hops and beautiful lobby. Thanks for a look into this one chris!

[@DanielleCarressa]

Hi Chris!!! Omg your comedy hour kills me. 🤣🤣🤣More Chris humor!!! PPPP Fam Foolish Mortals

[@kellypinady]

I want to see a pressed coin video in all the 4 WDW parks! ☺️

[@mikeywebb9598]

One thing i love about Rise of the resistance is (spoilers) the mini drop, so fun!

[@HauntinMatthew1969]

Hi Chris, that’s so cool you love tower of terror as much as I do.

[@bartplays3392]

Yay I love this ride it’s one of my favorites great video!

[@toribradford151]

I love this ride and was so sad that it's not in Disneyland anymore. Thanks for this video. One day I'll have to go to Florida and rude it again.

[@johnds6621]

Provost is always welcome in my house in the morning. I love this ride but I think your butt use to leave the seat more in the old days when it was more of a drop rather then that jerky bouncing. I wonder who dusts the place. LOL Thanks Chris. TTFN

[@mrjiggawatt]

One of the best Disney rides. I love the Mission Breakout ride in California, too!

[@HeartlandFamilyAdventures]

One of the best things about WDW is still having Tower of Terror! I love Guardians in DCA, but I do miss the original.

[@joelawson3638]

it's a matter of time before Disney re-theme tower of terror to the other one it's when the licence rights expire with CBS who owns the rights to the twilight zone show, then they will change it.

[@pianoman20]

My fav secret about the Tower of Terror can only be seen at night. When the park is dark and the ride is closed, you can see one solitary window illuminated in the hotel, with the silhouette of a man looking down at the guests. This usually can only be seen when exiting the fantastic show. It’s really spooky I think!

[@Wheels518]

Great video like always… I’m surprise you didn’t add in some of the other secret facts about the ride as in as you walk towards the road that the sidewalk is at a slight angle in the handrails or a different heights to give you that uneasy disoriented feeling and that the ventriloquist doll is actually the one from the TV series

[@provostparkpass]

Whoa I didn’t know that. 💚💙👍

[@Tonz420]

The good ol' videos :-) glad to see the OG content again!

[@JimmyGoodYT]

Excellent video, PPP! Chris is quickly becoming one of the best reasons to go to any Disney park. Fun facts, corny jokes, and an infectious positive attitude. Well done!

Chris, how on earth did you get that video of you from outside the tower at 0:22?

[@ashleyp3928]

Your videos always make my day

[@BV____]

Flash back for DCA people, thanks for the video

[@ciaraeltezam5542]

I miss this ride so much😭😭😭 can’t wait to go back to Disney!

[@Spudeaux]

Something you neglected to mention (or perhaps didn't realize) is that while you can see the Tower of Terror from Epcot, the only time you see it with one of the pavilions is when it's behind the Morocco pavilion. And since the Tower's architecture if Moorish revival - it blends in!

[@thatguytb0ne]

To me guardians is better but nothing beats the classics. Thanks Chris for the fun info. Also the comedy hour killed me😂😂

[@emtgirl777]

You missed the fallen letters from the marquee just before you enter the library! It's my favorite secret! If you look down in the bottom of the marquee, you will see the letters that have fallen off. The fallen letters spell out Evil Tower U R Doomed (Or something like that). There also several cool things in the lobby area, like the Mahjong game!

[@brycevo]

I still love Tower of Terror. This is such a great attraction

Chris have you ridden Runaway Railway yet?

[@jessicaburrola110]

Love your videos like this. 👍

[@adeadphish7931]

I love this and learned some cool things but there is one technical nitpick I want to bring up because it is also a cool fact of its own. You said the elevator moves along a track when you enter the 5th dimension and that is technically true, but it is a little more complex but very unique.The elevator uses a very loose wire track and wireless communication to guide across the show scene, making this a working prototype of what we see now in trackless ride systems

[@tyleriguana]

The cobwebs are actually dried up glue that has been splattered all over the place to make it look authentic. It does deteriorate over time but the cast members respray it when they can

[@ianmcgillvray5876]

had to look up the certification number on the elevator cause it's disney they never do anything random 10259 or 10/25/1959 was the date of the first date the Twilight Zone first aired

[@alli_mode]

I miss one of my favourite rides! Don't be a stranger to WDW when DL reopens!

[@BuckarooBanzai84]

More fun-facts; 'To Serve Man' also features Richard Kiel in one of his earliest performances! ('Bond' fans will know him as Jaws.) And #2; there has been a rumor since the 90's that parts of 'The Shadow' (1994) were also filmed in the ride interior. Who knows for sure? But it's fun to try and spot them! =)

[@tigertail777]

Serling... repeat after me... Serling there is no "T". ;) There is actually a pretty lengthy song loop they play, my favorite song that just seems to fit is Vera Lynn's "someday we'll meet again". Next time look closely at the tops of the bookshelves in the library, you'll find some other props from TZ episodes.The little space suit men from "The Invaders" and the fortune telling machine from "Nick of Time". The end of the ride USED to have the slot machine from "The Fever" but not sure it is there anymore or not you used to have to sort of twist around in your seat to see it. I didn't really see it in your video, there used to be a giant eyeball close to the second drop shaft in the 5th dimension scene, in which you could see yourself reflected in its pupil via video. Another effect I am not sure is there anymore, when they did the 2.0 redo of the drop profiles, there used to be plastic semi lit ghostly figures of the people that went missing inside the elevator shaft you had to really look around fast to see them.

[@briannassautheteacher9516]

It is the Biltmore Hotel in downtown. A beautiful hotel. Btw

[@weirsgarage]

are you guys aware of the KZbin change of email notifications not going out anymore when you post something new? I have been missing and not watching most all your videos since this change went in place. Thank goodness I finally found a workaround so I can start getting them again. I'm so busy it really rely on the notifications to make sure I don't miss anything.

[@GoldenSpiralMedia]

You're breaking my heart! It's Rod SERling, not Rod STERling. Mark Silverman is still used as the voice of Rod. He's done two episodes of the new Jordan Peele Twilight Zone as Rod. A few years ago, Mark was even kind enough to lend his Serling voice as the intro and outro for my Twilight Zone podcast!

Oh man I am so sorry. I always mispronounce things but this one hurts. 💙💚👍

[@Adam-gm6of]

I think you missed a couple things, isn't the ride length depend on how many drops you get. I always heard its Random on how many you get. Also that dummy, cast members have to say hello to it every morning, if they don't the ride will have complications that day. Next video I say is ALWAYS GALAXY EDGE!!! But since we are getting close to Halloween you needed to do haunted spots of Disney World. Like that Dummy in Tower of Terror. There's a few others as well, where the cast members have to say hello to each and every morning.

[@BLJtheYoutbeAddict]

Miss this iteration. Don’t get me wrong I love Guardians here in Disneyland but there’s just something about Tower and the Twilight Zone that made Disneyland great. Plus lots of my friends who were cast mates worked on Tower before it was overlayed permanently to Guardians lol 😂
