There Is NO WAY You Know These FOUR Pirates Of The Caribbean Secrets

[@chubbiepanda01]

Never stop including the positive affirmations in your videos. People may come to your channel for the fun facts and the dad jokes but your most crucial and lasting contribution are your positive words of encouragement. Keep it up Provost Park Pass!

[@arissar1928]

I absolutely needed this at this exact moment. I feel like he was talking directly to me. Sincerely from the bottom of my heart thank you PPP for always posting. Thank you for going to the park for those of us who want to but are unable for whatever reason. But most of all, thank you for the puns and affirmations.

[@provostparkpass]

Thank you for saying that.

[@KennyVee]

He always seems to do it at the perfect time -- he just throws it in the middle of the video and all of us are like, "Wow, thanks Chris; I didn't even realize how much I needed to hear that right now, but I did."

[@PirateParadox]

Me too. I watch these to distract myself from pain and stress, but what I really needed to hear surprised me right in the middle. Thank you 💕

[@sherreerivera474]

What you said about having a bad week and maybe a bad year and im worth it is exactly me and I got very emotional because I needed to hear that. So thank you so much for doing what you do. There's so many reasons why I follow you and this is one of the many I have.

[@robertjones1729]

PPP is great for a pick me up in our world...love to PPP ,Chris,Amanda and Miles

[@robertjones1729]

PPP you are AMAZING

[@robertjones1729]

Please do a green water system secreats uncovered video..please

[@tris12311]

I agree! I'm not sure why, but this time I almost teared up listening to Chris say that this video. I hope things get better for you Sherree!

[@sherreerivera474]

@@tris12311 thank you so much

[@michaelfierro7908]

One of the most fascinating aspects of Disneyland/DCA is the evolution of California Adventure. Over the past twenty years almost the entire park has been overhauled. I'd love to see a video on what has been there the whole time and attractions that have become forgotten. I think you're the best person(s) for the job!

[@disnerd3293]

Been listening to you guys a lot more recently and I have been feeling down but your words of hope have kept my spirits high. I went out of my comfort zone and I landed my dream job working with kiddos!! You guys are so amazing

[@goddesspetina603]

disney custodial here!!! i love making magic and keeping walts promise to lillian

[@alliekuma4234]

My favorite part of your videos besides the secrets are the interactions you have with the cast members. It's just so wholesome and keeps me believing that there are good people out there.

[@kato223]

Your Thank You to the Cast Members brought a tear to my eyes. When I was in WDW, I got sick and they absolutely went above and beyond to make sure that I had an awesome time there. They didn't have to since I am only one person, but it made me a forever fan of the Disney Parks for that reason alone! Thank you Cast Members!

[@adamm.9087]

LOVE the shoutout to cast members. I really enjoy the background work that is done. The trash clean up, the maintenance, chefs, security, etc. Making the resort the great place it is.

[@patrickk4730]

Geez this brings back some very good memories I had w/my cousin who is sadly no longer with us. We would have such a blast in this store. Swords, the old hooks, wooden guns… and of course the hats. Miss you Ted! Thanks so much Chris 🙏

[@KennyVee]

I love when Chris just sidetracks into "you are awesome" mode. And he always seems to do it when I really need it. Physically it's been a rough year of injuries (I manage a casino so I spend a lot of time on my feet, and sometimes I have to tend bar because we are a small casino and don't always have a bartender on my graveyard shift, and doing that with only one good hand and one good leg is difficult), and they are indeed getting better. I know the past couple of years have been rough on all of us emotionally as well, between COVID-19 and what's been going on in Ukraine for the past month, not to mention our own life stress, so thank you for bringing Disneyland to us as the escape Walt intended it to be.

[@provostparkpass]

Kenny you are amazing. Thank you for your kind comment. I needed to hear that today. 💙💚

[@Kenjisan66]

Thank you so much for the kind words at 6:05. It's truly uplifting to me that you took the time to include that message for us. I needed to hear that this morning.

[@carlyw1751]

I'm a good 20 years older than Miles, and I too could spend a whole day inside Pieces of Eight. I loved this video and having an in-depth look at one of my favorite stores in the park. Definitely do more secrets revealed about the other stores in the park! They're all so unique.

[@rwestward]

Unfortunately Chris, I already knew these facts...after I watched the video 😂! One thing I miss is the machine you could get your own piece of eight and put a custom message on it. That was great and we would do them on family trips to mark the occasion! Wish they would bring that back!

[@ericahadley1018]

The monkey is my favorite! The extensive details that make cameos, from movies to parks and parks to movies, will never cease to amaze me.

[@agmiddy7049]

I just have to say thank you tremendously for the positive affirmations. I’ve been subscribed to you for a little bit now and love your content. My girlfriend and I recently split and her and I would always go to Disneyland together, we were each other’s reason to get annual passes then eventually magic keys when those came out. Now I don’t really go anymore because I don’t find the same joy. So any Disneyland content I get is through you and a couple other KZbin people. Thank you.

[@eric3060]

Thank you Chris! Pirates is my favorite ride, and Pieces of Eight is my favorite shop!

[@AfterEmbers]

Pieces of Eight has always been my most favorite store and I must have been in it at least 100 times- and I never noticed most of those awesome things! Thank you for the great video and cute puns! Argh!

[@shellymarsh2206]

Sometimes, I feel like you’re talking to me, when you’re offering words of encouragement. These have been some very trying times. We’ve had so many losses, in our family, this past year. Thank you, and sweet Amanda for all of your blessings!!! 💝

[@azul3396]

I LOVE THE PIRATES RIDE

[@jmeleedill]

Your words of encouragement and love are so sincere and so lovely. Thank you for spreading kindness and happiness throughout the inter webs ❤️

[@lupras]

We love that store! Don't forget to get your fortune Red.

[@courtney4831]

Thank you for the positive affirmation. Today is a hard day with having to help my cat pass and sometimes the world just seems so bleak that you share the magic every day

[@MichelleW]

Thanks for the positivity and fun facts! Fun fact from me - I was at Villains Nite and I saw you and Amanda, from a distance, in your awesome costume and I thought "wow they're awesome!" but I didn't realize it was you two! Even though I watch your videos, your costumes were just that cool I only saw your characters. I was so happy when I got home and got to see you two experience the night from your perspective. Thanks for keeping the magic going!

[@gannongeiger5742]

I just want to say Thank you! Your couldn’t of come at a better time for me and it really made me stop and think about myself. I’ve been watching your blog more lately because my family and I are going to D-land in May for my wife’s 50th birthday and just been struggling mentally about myself and to here those words from someone outside my circle really hit home with me. Thank you again for what you do. Gannon

[@thomasromero7545]

Anaheim’s “Pirates Of The Caribbean” will always be my favorite attraction in any Disney park throughout the globe. Thank you Chris for the uplifting words, you have no idea how much I needed to hear that at this particular time. “Ye comes seekin’ adventure and salty ol’ pirates, eh?

[@jasonvredenburg4839]

Thanks again cast members for being so amazing... I say hello and goodbye to any cast members we come across.. I have a couple of friends who work at Disneyland and I always thank them for the great memories

[@chrisnicholsonstoryofsuccess]

Love your vlogs!!! Please don’t stop ever!!!

[@mjpapa7271]

HI CHRIS!!! Love your videos, thank you for doing what you do ❤️

[@bigrexdave]

Pieces of eight was our favorite shop when we were there. We played around for a while, trying on hats and playing with swords. Great place.

[@victoriadell614]

Thanks for the half-time pep talk. Hugs! You're awesome!

[@austindreher2791]

My son's were the same way. They absolutely loved The Pieces of Eight. They still have to visit the store EVERY visit to the Disneyland. My Mom loved the chandelier. She pointed it out every visit. I think she wanted to buy it .

[@joeleon5009]

This was such an amazing video! I've been to the Pieces Of Eight before and it's a great store to look at. The merchandise they have is really awesome. Pirates Of The Caribbean is my third favorite Disneyland attraction and I ride that every time I visit. BTW, when you say how awesome we are, it really brings so much warmth, tears, and joy to me. Disneyland continues to be my favorite theme park on the planet and I can't wait to go again.

[@ciarramarie7863]

Sir i was expecting to just watch and enjoy these awesome facts, what i wasnt expecting was to shed some tears with your words of encouragement in the middle of said facts 😭 very much needed to hear that! Chis you are a awesome person and thank you so much for your videos that bring disneyland into our homes when we cant be there ♥️

[@user-pl4hp4kk1k]

I don’t really comment on things ever. But thank you so much for the way you have made your channel upbeat and fun and family friendly. One of the very few channels on KZbin I have told my son he can watch freely. We got our passes the end of January and because of your videos my eldest loves going around and telling all the cast members jokes. He also found a Jafar tie pin at the park and traded so that if he sees you he can give it to you to match your Hades tie pin. Thanks again for the good clean fun your channel is, this mom really appreciates it.

[@wrathslove0467]

Thank you for your kind words telling us not to give up. I really needed to hear that. Thank you

[@_Carrie_F]

Thank you, Chris. YOU and YOUR family are awesome!

[@aarongra1096]

That was a favorite store for my daughter when she was Mile's age. I might be assuming too much, but I always assumed the piano counter was a nod to the player piano in the Captain's Quarter on the ride.

[@IronChuck]

Been going to Disneyland since 1979 and Pieces of Eight has changed so much over the years, but still fun to visit if just for the ambience. The themed gear is pretty cool, too.

[@amandagraves9275]

Chris, you said that sweet thing, I went to watch your videos to give me some laughter, I just lost my mom, thanks for your kindness, I needed it xo

[@dinero1169]

😁 Always feel special when you talk to all of us.

[@thehansenfamily2319]

Thank you Chris, you are also wonderful, awesome and amazing. Thank you for the positive and motivated comments. Love the secrets of Pieces of eight. We 😍 love it

[@Gifted_yeet]

I love these videos. Keep up the good work!

[@nzjonty]

Love this little shop! Such a cool little video

[@tikiviktor]

He’s not just holding any old 🍎 but it’s a Granny Smith 🍏 just the type Barbossa likes.

[@RASRomJol]

Dude, you are a national treasure! Thanks so much for what you do!

[@joeyormonde8370]

literally just had the worst work day of my life and you just made my day man, thankyou!

[@toddneil7632]

Pirates Of The Caribbean is the Best and New Orleans is my favorite! Thanks for the great info and video.

[@jaybruminator]

Have a great day chris!!

[@closetdisneynerd]

Great video Chris. @5:38 I'm pretty sure that is a reference to the harpsicord by the captain's bedroom in the ride

[@Steve-dude55]

It was good seeing ya again.. I’m glad I could help enjoy Remy

[@frznfido]

Thank you, Miles, for inspiring such a great video!

[@nataliemo24]

I just love your videos! We are going back to Disneyland in October and they are getting me pumped! Your positive words of encouragement are amazing as well!

[@Tatiana-by4oq]

Thank you for all of your videos. you create such joy within each moment, I learn more and more fascinating facts everytime!

[@ukiyaie]

thank you chris for the comforting message, it was definitely something i needed to hear.

[@Steven_Pelham]

I loved this video. I had fun watching with my daughter. Thank you! Do you have any updates on when Pirates of the Caribbean will be closed and when it will re-open? I hear it’s supposed to close for refurbishments sometime this year.

[@BryanW.]

Chris! Great stuff as usual brother!!

[@lonepop1]

(The artist previously known as lonepop)... Loved it! Another good video. BUT now I wonder... As you know (at least in the Red Rose Taverne), if a prop is framed, it was an actual prop in the related movie. In the Pieces of Eight, there are things on a top shelf framed with a window behind them. I wonder if that counts as an official frame. Hmm. I really like your positive comments in your videos. They're a boost to people, I truly believe.

[@samanthamorton3397]

this WDW CM thinks your amazing! keep it up! and love the secrets revealed especially since i am on the other coast...

[@pault5557]

So good! I LOLed at the irate pirate joke, but I GROANED at too many hook puns!!! 🤪

[@adamkenney4035]

Thanks I needed that positive message.

[@davepruitt2739]

Excellent. My favorite attraction.

[@JohnElizabethMary]

Your the best Chris, Thank u for all those great videos of Disney

[@cherylpalian3254]

You are amazing as well. Keep up your great videos. Also I agree with Miles. Pieces of eight is a great store I always need to visit

[@Jeff-kz5kl]

Thank you. ❤️ You are amazing too!

[@luvadventuresandart]

My favorite 😍 shop as well. Miles is such a handsome little man. I'd like a family vlog please 🙏

[@shannonstruck-martinez205]

Thank you for your positive affirmations. I did need them today.

[@marissag8609]

Hey Chris! Maybe you’ve done a video in this before that I missed, but do you have a “map” or good description for where exactly the ride is…in relation to what’s above it? I’ve always been fascinated to know where exactly the ride goes underground. Like, are you under other rides? Or Rivers of America? Or restaurants?

[@tikiviktor]

I remember back in the late 70’s early 80’s that gift shop use to give out “pirate treasure’ in the form of a gold coin to the kids that were 10 and younger.

[@eclectic_nature8644]

@ProvostParkPass thank you for that message in the middle of the video i needed that. You are amazing to man.

[@seanbexton]

You’re the best Chris! God you give so much love. Thank you

[@starglitter1966]

Would you mind giving the link or contact info for help planning a Disneyworld vacation? You & your wife have really kept my spirits up this Covid Season with all these Fun videos!! Thank you sooo much for that! We all really need a little fun & excitement back! Really appreciate it. Thanks again!

[@T.T.M.60]

Great video!,I love that store as well…..only knew about the piano check out counter but will look for all the rest when I’m there next.

[@robdawg6674]

Living in Ga the Walt Disney World parks are what we grew up on and experienced most as our “home park” but once we went to Disneyland in 2018 realized that the west coast Pirates is far superior in every way

[@nancydailey1410]

I could sit at the waterfront and listen to the band all day!

[@donttouchmysilver8202]

My mom got to hear & watch Duke Ellington play at Disneyland. She said her back was turned, then she heard him playing on the piano and thought to herself hey that guy is really good, only to turn around to see Duke Ellington on piano playing to her amazement! My mom was a lucky lady, she got to sit next to Jimi Hendrix during a Guess Who early concert. She said he was a real gentlemen & she loved the outfit he had on. He asked her do you mind if I sit here and smoke? Then my uncle came shaking telling my mom do you know who that is? That’s that’s Jimi Hendrix

[@tjs114]

The rear of a large sailing ship is called the aftercastle, or sometimes the aftcastle.

[@dalerose3500]

The piano in the store may refer to the piano (or harpsichord) that plays the ghostly music in the Captain's Quarters on the attraction.

[@tastymcdon3157]

Chris, you’re amazing too! Keep up the great videos! :)

[@mariheaton9261]

Hey Chris! Thanks for all the awesome content! Do you know why they chose to name the store Pieces of Eight?

[@BrendaSmith-bk8ge]

You should do a video on the hidden mickeys all over the park. It is a fun thing we like to do with new people we bring along with us.

[@jedimaster4088]

Did you say never know??? Challenge accepted 🤣🤣🤣

[@elansmith9291]

Chris has a PhD in Disneyland secrets. I watch his lectures everyday 😍

[@rkshox100]

Maybe the piano at the checkout counter is like the one in the captains bedroom scene on the ride?

[@candycemonroe7345]

I love this. Thank you for the jokes and the Disney fix.

[@azul3396]

hi i was wondering if you guys could do a video on making reservations for restaurants both on the app and the website? i’ve been trying to figure it out to get ready for my trip in july but it’s very confusing and it won’t let me see different times? im not trying to reserve for july yet but i was just trying to do a practice run but it’s very confusing. can you just give a bit of a tutorial?

[@azul3396]

also is it different for charecter dining? cause we are going for my boyfriends birthday and i want to plan something special and idk if it’s a different process

[@rondamoppert3152]

So bummed that pirates is closed when we are Disneyland this Friday

[@suzannessweetkitchen6266]

My grandson loved that store when he was younger as well, I'm sure we've spent more at that store than any other at Disneyland.

[@michaeltmoore4889]

Big thunder RR, Mr.Toads too.

[@michaeltaylor1603]

Well, there IS a square piano in the grotto scene. I guess I'm "armed" with knowledge" The band IS amazing! There has always been one there during my visit. When I was a a kid I had a Pirates "glitter bottle" Man it was neat! Probably from that store in the 1970's.

[@KrookedDoesStuff]

These facts are a great idea from Miles! Gonna have to have his own videos :D Also, I don't know if anyone has told you this Chris but you're kinda like a cast member yourself. You bring the same energy and joy that they do. I might even argue you're even better than a cast member!

[@ronthedrummer4240]

Ok Chris I've one for you do you remember the magic shop on main st. ? They had toy large spiders that were on the ceiling and they would randomly drop down from the ceiling. As a kid we thought that if you caught one it was free .

[@fgronstadt]

What happened to the pieces of eight machine that used to be tucked in one of the corners? Used to be able to stamp out messages on the coin.

[@nickhoffman1234]

First, love your videos and your vibe!!! Thank you! And I can’t believe that a pirate fan like myself only knew ONE of those things!!! Thank you for pointing the others out!!

[@jacewinget3675]

niceeeee I love pirates

[@vanessamckay1517]

Is the pirates gift shop in Florida the same name “pieces of eight”? Love you videos thanks for sharing

[@nancydailey1410]

You are AWESOME!

[@avebeno]

Hey! Isn't that Vince and Rob on clarinet and saxophone?!

[@jessieeagleheart7911]

Ty Chris I love this Video you did and ty to all your crew I’m addicted to your Puns hahahaha🤣😅🤣😂😁😆👍🏽🙏🏽thank you.

[@salbaca1104]

I really enjoyed this video as I am myself a fan of pirate history to the point as I play trading card games as a hobby like for example magic the gathering anyway for these games I collect cloth mats and one I am currently using is one with 4 of the same islands with like barrels of a palm tree and In the center of it has the skull and crossbones and while I do not collect many Disney items I do collect pirate themed pins from the Caribbean or connected to the stores at Disney and I plan to put them on the edges and I also have a deck box which I put my cards in with the skull and crossbones and the top says of course Dead Men Tell No Tales

[@natesandoval6917]

Love the jazz band
