THE LAST DAY OF SPLASH MOUNTAIN (Mini Documentary)

THE LAST DAY OF SPLASH MOUNTAIN (Mini Documentary)
This video captures the vibes of the Citizens of Disneyland and how they celebrated the end of Splash Mountain at Disneyland.

[@amandak1683]

What a send off! Awesome that the vibe stayed so positive and the sense of community was so strong with so many Citizens of Disneyland.

[@lorenajones3729]

No one can deliver a narrative like you can. Your story telling abilities can evoke every emotion from tears of joy to wonderment and aw.

[@jugatsu23nichi]

Splash was a magical experience for me. In '89 when I had just finished my freshman year in high school, our family went during the opening and that was magical. Thanks to my outgoing sister, I met a girl I fell in love with and rode in the cozy back seat with that girl. That memory was so amazing for me since that sister passed away a few years later and that ended up being my last time at Disneyland with her.

[@jugatsu23nichi]

@@HeyBrickey Thanks man, thank you for making a great emotionally connecting video

[@lauri-jeancarlson8476]

going to miss splash mountain so much

[@aliteralcabbage]

Disney fans feel like family and a huge hug. No matter how big or small a change is, no matter if Theme Park enthusiast or Disney fan, we all celebrate and embrace what was given to us. Goodnight Splash Mountain, from one theme park enthusiast and Disney fan to another, may we embrace the memories it gave all of us. 🌊❤

[@chrismurray6606]

Beautiful storytelling. Thanks for sharing this amazing day with us all. This one is a keeper. Here is to all the the Citizens of Disneyland. #club1313

For us, old timers that were there the day Disney opened and to see the 1st time Splash Mountain opened up in Critter Country. And then Country Bear Jamboree disappeared and Critter Country was never the same and now it's forever gone. I'll miss both those rides. Your documentary was very well done.

[@lindsaysmith2510]

This was a warm and fuzzy goodbye to Splash. ❤

[@J_Pike]

It was great to see the "Citizens of Disneyland" have a great day to say good bye to Splash and get ready for a new Adventure. Also a BIG shout to all the CM's that kept Splash moving all day. I am very excited for what is next.

Beautiful goodbye. An artistic masterpiece. Thank you for your vision, your words, and your love of Disney. ❤

Splash Mountain will forever be my favorite ride at the park. Thank you for documenting this moment. I really wish I was there to experience it's last moments. A piece of my childhood, will now and always be a memory. Goodbye old friend.

[@leosarmiento4823]

It was a night i won't soon forget. Arriving later than expected, my first ride had me entering the queue at 3:30pm. Though a single rider, i had to pay respects to the entire ride. My second and final trip found me riding it, during the fireworks show, via LL that i decided to use after hearing that an early closure of the lines was eminent. As magical as it looked from the ground, seeing the pyrotechnic bursts from the ride was priceless. Finally, after spending the remainder of the night on the secret path, and then the bridge, seeing the house lights kick on after the final drops...well it was inspiring being a part of the Disneyland community as we bid farewell to a venerable ride...and walking through a ghost town of a park that will always have an abundance of magic. Great video.

[@louisamozingo9470]

As always Brickey, tugging on my heartstrings! (Teary eyed watching your tribute), Not only saying goodbye to Splash, but those beloved characters from ‘America Sings’! That attraction meant so much to me growing up. So, saying goodbye to two beloved attractions for me is definitely sad, but thank you for honoring them in the most perfect way. ♥️ you killed it!!!!!

[@shashona3084]

Thanks Splash!

[@lisamasters6705]

Awwe Brickey...as I watch/listen to this video on my headset at work I am tearing up remembering the trips that my husband and I took with our two kids from British Columbia, Canada, to Anaheim to go to Disneyland and the sheer joy we all experienced riding Splash Mountain together! My kids are now 22 & 25 and here I sit at my desk with tears rolling down my cheeks knowing that that time is forever gone...thank you from the bottom of my heart for sharing...Peace & love from British Columbia, Canada...

[@kengasaku69]

Beautifully made!! Most def going to miss Splash Mountain.

[@timanderson293]

Perfectly succinct recap of a special day. Thank you.

[@jasoncarbone5553]

Clearly shot, edited, and narrated by a lover of Disneyland and all the treasures she holds. Thanks for an amazing send off Brickey. I’m on another continent and yet feel like I was there. Thank you for caring and shining the right kind of light on this SoCal jewel.

[@katrinaandrews5263]

I love your love letter videos they are always so thoughtful and touching ❤

[@jonathanlawrence1401]

Great video! I’ve really enjoyed the back catalogue lately too!

[@SimplyBrandy23]

Why Brickey, why is it that you manage to make me cry once again. 😢

[@Rich.O]

Brickey your story telling is second to none! What an awesome way to document the end of a era. This definitely is one that needs to go into the archives!

[@kukanagirl]

Such a BEAUTIFUL tribute!! Well Done Brickey!!!

[@WildBeautiesGrooming]

You have shown the heart of this. Out of all the Disney KZbinrs this week, YOU, Brickey have brought Disney magic to me as I lay here getting ready for bed, watching prolly the last video I’ll watch on Splash Mountains last day. Bravo sir, thank you for pulling at every heart string I needed pulled and helping me truly remember the joy I had riding splash for the last time in October of 2021. 👏🏽 👏🏽 You truly are an artist. Thank you for all your content. ❤ Thank you for being you. 😊

[@kathleenfink207]

What a beautiful tribute! Thanks for the view and thoughts ❤❤❤

[@JesseAdventure]

One thing I just realize with all the mountains this mountain has the most details looking forward to see the next chapter

[@smeather6161]

I sure hope that someone else has also shared that your videos are a total vibe! In same way you describe saving certain videos for certain moments. For me, these are my first stop, before my brain and heart are pulled elsewhere. They remind me that there is always more to design than I can possibly recognize a quick gaze. So much intention, thought and time to both design in general ans in your videos. Keep up the great work!🎉

[@schofizzy7536]

Thank you for this Brickey! Got me to tear up a few times with your mix of words and visuals. It was so much fun being there and saying goodbye to our old friend. Nice shouting out at you too, I didn't get a chance to stop and really talk, mostly cause every opportunity you appeared to be in the middle of another meaniful conversation. As a citizen of Disneyland, I know I'll have plenty of other opportunities to share our Disney stories together. ❤

[@craigbfd1]

Thank you Brickey!! The words, the music and the visuals told an amazing and heartfelt story. Keep up the good work brother 👍

[@nickperna2467]

I've watched a lot of videos on the last night and by far the video you put out I feel is the best one. You covered everything with class and dignity. Thank you brickey for being one of the good citizens of Disneyland

[@ghostscout6463]

When you said it was time to say goodbye , I was thinking ya , ya this is goodbye. Love your little documentary and definitely hit me hard and just about got me to cry. I only road splash mountain twice in my life. First was after I graduated from high school and the second was with my wife for my 28th birthday just this past September in 2022. But iam glad I went on those too time vs not a all.

[@JBX302]

You do this better than anyone else. Thank you.

[@Believeinthemagic17]

Fantastic documentary! This will be cherished years to come!

[@justjulief]

It’s the music matched to your narration again Brickey. Magic. My oldest was born in 1989 and I have been going to disneyland since I was 5…so I am tied to this place no matter which way I look at it. (I’m 60) I did have tears falling down my cheeks as I listened to you here. Well done. What a sweep of emotions! Now, off to watch Justin’s 1 hour tribute.

[@mailesantiago9400]

I’m crying this is so good! Thank you for this!

[@swordmonkey27]

Thanks for this video. I rode it the year it opened in 1989 and I rode it the year it closed. Always one of my favorites

[@anab.7450]

I like how both coasts celebrated similarly. A nice way to close one chapter. But now I'm super excited to see what chapter 2 has in store.

[@RhondaMGK]

Another work of art, thanks!

[@karendangelo5148]

Thanks so much Brickey! Fitting sendoff. As one who still misses much older attractions to this day (heya ❤️ you Adventure thru Inner Space) it meant a lot.

[@beepo8794]

its honestly a bitter sweet feeling, it isn't the theme rechange thats getting to me, its more the memories I made on this ride, It's saddening to see something from your childhood just vanish or change, but we shouldn't be sad about it, Splash mountain will become something even bigger, it will entertain a whole new generation of people. It's sad to see it go, but the future looks bright for Tiana's Bayou adventure

[@debdelooze7993]

Brickey, you are such a great story teller! Thanks for sharing |the last day of Splash Mountain with me.... Gonna miss that ride.

Hello. I am a BIG fan of your work. Thanks so much for all the Documentation you have done at Disneyland. I just rewatched your "The Construction of STAR WARS: GALAXY'S EDGE" I got chills all over again. So glad you found Brickey he is a "Citizen of Disneyland" like you. Thanks again for all your hard work 🤘

[@yensid5578]

Making the construction videos was a lot of fun. I'm glad you enjoyed them! I watched more of your videos last night. You do such a great job! I especially liked the video entitled 'Toontown's secret trick'. Your attention to detail is outstanding. I'm looking forward to your next video. Hopefully, I'll see you around the parks. Keep up the great work!

@@J_Pike I'm glad you enjoyed the construction videos. It was a fun father/daughter time together, especially during the editing. Thanks for watching!!

[@malloryharley8491]

I’m not sad that Splash Mountain is changing. Change is good. I’m sad at an era closing. It opened when I was 3 and I don’t know Disneyland without it. It’s my childhood. I’m excited and optimistic at what Disney will do with Tiana’s Bayou Adventure. I just don’t think it’s the best spot for it because of aesthetic reasons, but Disney has a plan and a vision and I trust they will not let us down!!! Goodbye Splash Mountain. I will always cherish the fun family and friend’s memories of this ride (yes this way more over others) but I’m excited to make new memories with my daughter on Tiana’s! ❤

This is absolutely gorgeous. I haven’t watched another video of the last splash at DL and there is no reason to. The way you honor the Citizens of Disneyland, the community and CMs is uniquely special. The way you described the fireworks…the “kiss goodnight “ - ALL the feels. Thank you, Brickey. ❤

That was an amazing tribute to a well-loved attraction, Brickey! My first memory of Splash Mountain was getting to ride it with my mom and close family friends (one of whom worked for Disney) during cast previews. Eventually, My mom, myself, and finally my dad would work at Disneyland. Excited to have my last ride be with 1313 buds before starting school this year! Can't wait to check out Tiana's Bayou Adventure when it reopens!
