Am I the only one who could smell this video? This ride always had a very distinct smell that brings back good memories.

[@SweetJeopardy]

Absolutely! They should bottle it cause it immediately transports me to being a kid feeling excited and having a fun, fantastic time.

[@46pennrdprix]

@@SweetJeopardy they do bottle it actually and you can buy park/ride scents online

[@jamesg6675]

I was just thinking that!

[@catspasm2004]

Love that there aren't boatloads of people chattering throughout the ride. Actually able to enjoy the quiet in the beginning of the attraction. Thank you.

[@themeparksteve1]

Glad you enjoyed it!

The dog with the key, always my favorite part of the Pirates ride...

[@SweetJeopardy]

Same. I'll forget my name before I do that tune they whistle, lol

[@pegbutwin7189]

This 54 year old’s favorite ride! Thank you!!

[@kanders7391]

Pirates and the haunted house! Yeah!

[@jgmopar]

Pirates and the Haunted house were my favorites as a kid. Adventure through inner space and Mr. toads wild ride were always on our list as kids and running around on Tom Sawer Island. The earliest I can remember being at Disneyland was 1973-74

[@mortimerbrewster3671]

The general consensus seems to be those two rides as the favorite. I was disappointed when they removed rides like the People Mover and some of the slower rides that were nice to do just to relax after walking for so much.

[@ryanm4013]

@@mortimerbrewster3671 The removal of the People Mover should have been declared an act of treason!!!

[@David-sc2ir]

I remember as a kid (mid 70's) this was the E ticket ride to go on! How many remember A B C D E tickets? LOL, probably not many :)

[@joannevilchis3529]

I remember!😂

[@tejaswoman]

My only knowledge of it is a quick mention of it in Julie Brown's novelty hit "The Homecoming Queen" - at the time, I had no idea what an "E" ticket was and grasped only the gist that it must be something desirable or impressive.

[@hankbrown2871]

Getting rid of the tickets and the ticket books was one of the early first steps in the ruin of Disney.

[@oeb3847]

We would save the unused tickets for the next time we went there.....gen X here.

[@CalebHolst]

I can smell this ride

[@tainted_rain]

I absolutely love this ride and it is my favorite by far. Stunning animatronic scenes, beautiful caves, lights and even the scent of the water. Not to mention that it's just a calming ride with the two drops mixed in.

[@wesbromberg6204]

Thank you ! Used to ride this every year from mid 70s until early 2000s. Great memories

[@kathyjaneburke2798]

I went to Disney land almost 55 years ago and I still remember this ride. I loved it! Though, as an adult I find the repeated "upbeat" version of the song, especially during the darker parts a bit annoying.

[@johncassidy2727]

i would advise against riding "It's a Small World" if you find the pirate song annoying.

This ride is so calming and peaceful after doing a fast ride except for that little jump.

[@Olderthandirtcaligirl]

I’ve been going to Disneyland since they opened and there never was, nor ever will be, a better ride than The Pirates of the Caribbean!! Absolutely incredible!

[@Outdoors49Man]

I rode Pirates on high school grad night in June 1967. It was amazing.

[@paulabarnes3351]

And me, grad night ‘68, Disneyland all night!

[@lizm3999]

The clarity and lighting of this video is excellent

[@goodoakpress]

Well done! Pirates of the Caribbean is my favorite Disneyland ride, and it's gotten much better over the years. This video is by far the closest thing to actually being there.

[@Valkonnen]

No actually, to be more PC, they removed all of the aspects of what pirates were. When bullying by a political group, forces a piece of art to change, so it won't offend anyone (Which it NEVER did when people were normal), it ceases to be "Art". I'm sure that most reasonable people understand this.

[@goodoakpress]

@@Valkonnen sorry to hear it. It's been years since I've been to Disneyland. Pirates was always my favorite ride, and back then people simply had fun.

[@bigmacfullerton7870]

I grew up 15 minutes away from Disneyland and used to go all the time when it was $20 to get in and not totally overcrowded. Not anymore. This ride was a classic and it hasn’t changed much over the years which is good

[@Positivekitten]

Me too !!! I loved having Disneyland and Knotts berry farm practically in my backyard! I miss those times.

[@lpeterson2336]

I went on these rides in Florida in 1975. Great childhood memories.

[@nowthatsjustducky]

I remember as a little one back around 1974, the disappointment that the top of that lift hill was the end of the ride, and not another drop.

[@margaretwilliams6114]

Love this version of Pirates. Always so much better than WDW version, biggest thing is longer. More scenes in this. I like this inside line setup with it open to the outside instead of going in and down. They could have done the same at WDW if they didn't go down with the entrance line.

[@charlottebrown270]

Pirates of the Caribbean was my most favorite ride of all times. One year when I went there the ride broke down right before one of the overpass Bridges in there and we were stuck there for over a half an hour and I loved it.❤️

[@theonlineferret]

My ride I didn’t really brake down , the boats kept bumping into each other and I almost got stuck on the lift hill where the pirates were shooting each other

[@adventuresontheroad1969]

Your videography was VERY well done as you moved your camera so fluently along with the boat. You didn't "swing it around" like many might have done, keeping the ride as if it were being seen by us, the viewer. Very Well Done sir!

Thank you. In the olden days (1970's) we'd run to go to our favorite rides first. First would be the mules, then Pirates, then Haunted Mansion. Then we'd do them all again.

[@nancyt2848]

That was a great trip down memory lane. Still pretty much as I remember it. It has been many years since I’ve been there as it just got too expensive. (I live about 60 miles away.) Never realized that was a 15 minute ride. And I will never forget the smell of the place when you first get inside. When I was very little (3 or 4), I was terrified of the ship battle as I hated loud noises and spent that part of the ride with my head in mom’s lap crying. This is my only ‘experience’ with fireflies. BTW, this was superb camera work!

[@haunanishelton2705]

I don’t know if it was your camera or the updates, but the brightness in there was awesome!! Every time I go I would think…it’s getting soo dark. Thank you so much for doing this. I wanna go now. Now I hope they update Haunted Mansion.

[@ahdofu]

Thanks for sharing this. Visiting DL was nearly a yearly event for us when my kids were growing up. Throughout the years I must have visited every part of the park. Pirates ride was and continues to be a favorite. At time stamp 8:50 when the seller yells at the lady "show us your ..". It also used to add something like "no reason to show your superstructure". Perhaps they have removed this dialogue but I found it to be amusing. I think at the same location there was a well dressed mannequin that would tug at her skirt pulling it up. That too seems to be missing.

[@guymatsuda8660]

From what I read and could see from the video no real changes, just refurbishments were done inside and out. Always one of my favorite rides at Disneyland! 🏴‍☠️

[@psykorobot6807]

Yeah, I agree, I rode it last weekend and 3 years ago and it expected some fairly noticeable changes. Overall, there really wasn't (or else my memory is fading, that could be). It was pretty much just replacing run down pieces, adding a new coat of paint and some updated sound. I remember the last time they made changes it was quite noticeable with the market/ladies of the night changes, entry of Jack Sparrow and overall animations. Nothing remotely as noticeable this time.

[@jerrodshuck]

[@taylowendy]

Great filming! I used to go on the ride about 5-10 times every visit when I was young. There has been some changes. There used to be two big drops and one medium sized at the beginning. During the ship battle before going to town, Jack was originally on the ship ordering the men to fire. He was also featured more throughout the scenes. They also took out my favorite part. The bride auction with a beautiful women dressed in dressed at the center point. The climb up out of the ride used to be a lot longer. The ride back to the queue/island used to be wider. I loved being able to see the candles on the restaurant tables inside. The restaurant that was there was awesome too. Perfect dining by candlelight.

[@Jyslinn]

They did take out a lot of Jack. And I liked the bride auction too. Jack is in the barrel instead of a woman. All, well, I won't be going anyway. Too expensive.

Great video steve anything different or still the same ride? One of my favorite rides and hope to ride it soon.

[@bubhub64]

The bayou scene at the beginning is much too light from what I remember. It used to be much more dark and ominous, like it was nightime, which made it easier to see the fireflies. The buildings on fire at the end of the ride seem like glowing projections of fires, in contrast to where it used to look like actual flames coming out of windows. Why change it? Sometimes too much technology screws things up. Everything is too bright which takes away the erieness of the ride. I like my old Pirates better.

[@ryanm4013]

I agree. The fire used to look much better years ago

[@Adam13Chalmers]

Overall, it did seem brighter, and like they introduced more color (noticed it at those first scenes after the drops). Agree the swamp felt different and brighter. Is that a lit up background in the swamp? Also seemed to go faster through the swamp, and maybe the boat moves faster everywhere? Some of the differences may be how the camera picks it up...Anyway, great video and picture quality in the low lighting! Thanks!!
