Which Disney Attraction Was SHUT DOWN By Bees? PLUS It Also Has A SECRET WALKWAY And A Hidden Donald

[@carlyw1751]

As someone who loves Disneyland but has some sensory issues, I'm always looking for spots in the parks that are chill so thanks for the tip about the spot near this ride!!

[@provostparkpass]

It’s a perfect place to relax

[@SteveCarras]

I didn't bee-gin soon enough to tell about the ride that got down down due to bees. I've bee-n ("bee-n".Bee 🐝😁😂😆🤣get it) actually stung, though not allergic enough, as a bee sting from a bee swarm could bee a real catasprobee. Outside of stings, las time I went, I had some bee-in nets before bee-ing spooked on the Haunted Mansion., On the Pirates, I tried to bee safe from the pirates..On Small World a lot of folks have bee-n sugared out from ther song, though not me, and I went on that..

[@cindybathalter3102]

I’m so excited about this tip. My son has misophonia and can’t stand to be around people who are eating. Meal times were a disaster on our last trip. Going to try this spot for him to eat next visit. Thank you!

[@ShalmendoGlineux]

@@cindybathalter3102 For everyone who has problems with sounds, a good pair of Active Noise Cancellation headphones can be a godsend. I have my own issues with crowd noise and such being overwhelming (autism here) and once I got a pair of those, it was like giving me a volume control on life itself... I've been able to sit in a crowded pub without feeling the intensity of the noise around me because it knocked it down quite a few decibels to a much quieter background level and I was able to focus on my food without a problem. I'm going to bring them to Disney World as well, and I might not take them off at all depending on noise levels. (Well I probably can't keep them on on coasters, but being able to have low volume the rest of the trip will let me have some mental stamina left over for those no problem.)

[@erinYYC]

The world needs more Chris - always such a positive light !

[@provostparkpass]

Thank you Erin. 💚💙

[@markosbrutos7002]

There’s something magical about that area of the park by the swings and coaster, I love it!

[@provostparkpass]

Isn’t it delightful

[@lupeflores7302]

I love walking around the silly symphonies. I would feed my kids and put them down for a nap. The ride is awesome, my favorite.

[@SecondOpinionGarageDoorRepair]

Well, we saw you the last 2 times we whereat the park. Are you here today? We have a first timer with us with jumping video of the reveal

[@lamartya.4042]

Really, I remember the giant orange, but never heard about the bee's. So cool. And you are right about going into more in depth research on Gustoph (sp?). Don't remember hearing about Him. Surprised Disney dosen't play off of Him more. Also forgot about Greg getting sick. That is a video you should have tried to point too. Oh yea, you must have kept Alyssa busy with all the pointing and halos in this one. And we have always seen your Halo! Your such an angel, haha!!!

[@provostparkpass]

I’m totally going to research Gustav

[@hermajeslay-christine940]

OMG I used to loooove the Orange Stinger!! When you mentioned the orange smell my brain could remember exactly what it smelled like. lol I remember seeing some rouge real bees and laughing, but I wasn't aware it was such a big problem! You all are the BEST; always learn things that I some how missed even though I basically grew up inside the parks. Thank you all for your awesome work and information!! You help bring a little of the magic home for us to experience along with you, and honestly make my days a little more bright. Thank you! YOU are the good in the world!!

[@lydiashewmaker2018]

My friends and I went on that ride at the perfect time of the evening that everyone riding the ride were the only people in line for awhile, and the cast members checked the line after the ride stopped at one point, saw no one was in line, asked everyone on the ride before we got off it we wanted to ride again and let us. It was fantastic.

[@EnchantedStoryEars]

My husband had to bribe our kids with churros to get them to ride it the first time, and they loved it! Now it's their favorite ride. And I had no idea you could go around it like that! We're always looking for quiet little spots to decompress, and that looks like a great new place to go!

[@provostparkpass]

Best churro bribe EVER! 😂💚💙

[@EnchantedStoryEars]

@@provostparkpass After they rode it, they were like, "This is the best night ever! We loved it AND we get a churro!"

[@Sibelius440]

I was working the day we shut down screamin’ because of bees. A bee collector took down the hive and put in a trap for any returning bees. We closed Maliboomer, too, since the hive was in our queue.

[@naomidaisy1165]

Chris enjoying his "halo" makes me laugh out loud! He likes to BEE so silly. 🐝 🐝 🐝 😉

[@marciyoung2217]

I love this ride. And love the walkway under the ride. One of my favorite Disneyland memories was when my kids got to meet Jessie in that covered area. There was no one else there. They had so much with her. Some of my favorite pictures we have ever gotten at the park.

[@Stoneysilence]

1:32 That light/note fixture was also a fan.

[@cassieheap5866]

"Enamored with his halo" hahaha. Oh I love it 😆

[@Joe-ov1ut]

Hey Chris, maybe this subject is none of your beeswax!! 😂😂😂

[@Songdaddy]

Full Bodied Mickey sounds like a good name for a drink.

[@Sueah71]

One of my favorite places in sit and relax under the Silly Symphony! Watching many different things happening in the lagoon.

[@mycastleintheair6303]

I only recently discovered this ride... can't believe I was missing out on it for so many years! It's surprisingly fun, I was giggling along with you as it started picking up speed :) Thanks for a fun video!

[@Songwritersbehindthecurtain]

That ride definitely reminds me of a tangerine.

[@Ed-R]

Time for Chris to Bee Seally. Thank You Chris for beeing you. Have Beeautiful Day and a Beetter One Tomorrow. Is that 2 many Beees.

[@RideTheTeacups]

Our kids (3 & 6) loved the swings!!! I rode it for the first (and 2nd, and 3rd) time a few weeks ago, and yeah - it was pretty great. Really enjoyed it. We got Flight Of The Valkyrie twice!

[@mjpapa7271]

Hi Chris! Love your videos! ❤️😊 Thank you for all that you do!!!

[@michaeltaylor1603]

I ran a ride similar to this one. Guests put flip flops on center stand or on the ground under the seat where they boarded. They for SOME reason thought that we stop top the ride in the same spot so they could collect their shoes. LOL! I'm a FAN of fans. That was a unique one. Chris "BEE Hive" yourself!

[@lalalauraann]

Chris, you’re really awesome too. I never saw the orange so it was cool to hear the history about it! Bees freak me out so I can’t even imagine being stuck on a ride with them!

[@greggirons67]

This ride is always at the city fair of where I grew up, Silverado Days in Buena Park, we always called it "The German Swings" ... Bee-utiful video Chris and the PPP Gang ..!

[@mill8722]

When I was a child I was lucky enough to go to Disneyland from Australia and I always thought I dreamt that amazing orange ride! This video made me realise that it was real and how amazing it was 🥰🥰🥰

[@CharlesGreggo]

This video is going to be the bees knees

[@biancabubbles712]

That secret walkway is also the best place to see the world of color if they bring it back!

[@gratefulblues32]

Secrets revealed of Soarin' over California!

[@adamgourley6412]

A bit of trivia about the ride music I have discovered from ride videos is that there are two versions of the attraction soundtrack. I think the William Tell Overture is the main soundtrack (albeit condensed down for the 90 second ride time), but sometimes the ride will briefly start out with "The Storm" for a bit before switching over to the main part of the overture. I think that is a neat and clever use of music which goes well with the theming. After all, both are heard in "The Band Concert" and "The Storm" is a big part of the plot's action.

[@brendamanu-tuinei4902]

I TOTALLY remember the bees when I rode that! Buzzz buzz!

[@bobparr3819]

Chris , Thank you for blogging that ride. We remember people coming off it and thy were stung by the bees, but it sure smelled good. We saw it being removed and wondered. My wife and I were AP holders. I am glad you love Disney as much as we do.

[@PeterGreeneRambo]

This is off topic for this video: I'm a disabled veteran with a service dog. I'm travelling to Disneyland by myself so I can't ride-switch. Can you confirm which attractions have a portable kennel? Any chance you can include this in a disability update (more Andrew, please!) and talk about DAS, renting scooters and whatever else about disability access that I can't think of? I really appreciate your videos. You are making my upcoming Disneyland trip so much better!

[@joeleon5009]

Hey Chris, thanks so much for doing this video. I remember suggesting this in a previous comment and I strongly appreciate it. Silly Symphony Swings is one of my favorites and it brings so much happiness to my Disney day. I never known The Orange Stinger was shut down by real bees before and I find that so fascinating. I didn't really care for that version in my opinion and I like this version a lot better. It's so nice to feel the air spinning around in these swings. You have taught me so much about Disneyland and Disney in general especially during this crazy pandemic! I see Disneyland now more of a historical museum than just a typical theme park. I continue to be a PPP viewer and I can't wait for more Disney content. One suggestion I have for a video is Jessie's Critter Carousel Secrets Revealed and Jumpin Jellyfish Secrets Revealed.

[@teresacoleman4039]

love the hidden area going to tell my niece about it she is going soon with 3 kids

[@Songwritersbehindthecurtain]

Hidden Donald what!

[@BryanW.]

The Whoopee party?? That is the most R rated thing Disney has every produced.. 😂 Great fun as always Chris!

[@provostparkpass]

Right?!?! Advert your eyes 😂💚💙

[@ShalmendoGlineux]

@@provostparkpass Advert? 😅

[@benbaldwin5144]

Such an underrated attraction! You just brought back some old memories with the orange, love it!

[@darelandjennav211]

Wow this video was totally outside the box and we loved it! We learned so much it was unreal. G. Tinkershmidt says: "Beeee-ware of orange scented flying rides." Hehe

[@fell952]

the swings are always one of my favorite rides

[@deniseflygirl]

I went on a grade school carnival ride that was a poor man’s version of Silly Symphony. The seat was a square board with the chains attached to the corners. What held you in was four small chains connected horizontally around you on the hanging chains. That’s it. I had so much fun on it. My mom was so pissed at me cuz I had my hands in the air. As an adult, I see how unsafe this ride was, but she also is afraid of thrill rides. I would love this ride if I were to go there.

[@minutemark]

Great video, Chris. Yes, I'd love to learn more about that Gustav Tinkerschmidt guy. Thanks so much!!

[@vacationmode6286]

Wow I might be dizzy…..thanks for the video! Yeah you have to “bee careful”. Lol.

[@blazerhawkdarren68]

14:29 the SAME Corey Burton is the voice of Cad Bane in Star Wars Clone Wars?

[@jaybruminator]

More like a sombrero hat

[@minutemark]

6:30 I'm right with you, Cameraman Greg. I cant even watch the spinning rides. I have to keep them completely out of my visual periphery.

[@shelleyabbott9897]

I remember the big orange it looked cool.

[@jeremyjacobs4991]

Thank you for your videos and your positivity! Going to Disneyland next week and I hope to sound smart by sharing some of your information and insights.

[@Gooby460]

The circle moving pictures is called a Zoetrope similar to a flip book but round

[@AwesomeAustn]

I chuckled when Cameraman Greg was shown the second time 😆

[@angtheintrovert]

I get so motion sick I had to look away just watching the video when you were riding! Still I love learning about all the attractions I can't ride. And your videos make the world a better place!!

[@ShalmendoGlineux]

Perhaps some non-drowsy dramamine might help? I too get motion sick and I'm going to try using it for each day of my upcoming Disney World reunion with my family... I don't want to miss out on a ride just because of some nausea! (I wonder how much dramamine it might take to make it 'safe' for me to ride mission space?

[@nolanholdridge1059]

Thank you, Chris! I remember the orange!

[@SonOfManMusic]

Best channel for Disney secrets. Learned so much. Thank you.

[@Noneyobusiness7822]

btw the orange theming is attributed to the fact that Anaheim used to be nothing but orange groves. Disneyland was built on some of those orange groves.

[@jacewinget3675]

always love these videos! your awesome Chris!

[@belladonna4765]

This is really awesome! I always enjoy these these types videos that shows many details and fun facts about Disney Rides.

[@Myles_Alfama]

I remember the Orange Stinger to bad I didnt ride it but I remembered it

[@tubaman66614]

Don't feel bad Cameraman Greg. I'd love to ride it, but it would make me sick to. I can do coasters all day, but a merry-go-round will take me down.

[@Gifted_yeet]

I love these videos so much! thanks for the amazing content. keep up the great work

[@vega7595]

8:55 sounds like a great deal. Haha

[@Songwritersbehindthecurtain]

Best pun joke ever.

[@EricDun]

I was there around June in 2021. Big Thunder Mountain was shut down for a good hour or more due to a swarm of bees just hanging around the goat with dynamite area. We thought it was part of the ride at first and then later realized it was real bees.

[@tinarash7772]

I can't turn around in circles, had to cover the screen and not watch it. But as soon as you were off the ride I watched again.

[@shelleyabbott9897]

My son was stung on Goofy’s sky school. We took him to the nurses station and they took a report of where he got stung. She explained that the gardeners will check what type of bushes are planted around the ride.

[@Songwritersbehindthecurtain]

I know the band concert episode.

[@PeppersGhost]

Bee-autifully done. Do people *swarm* over to this ride when it re-opens? I can't think of a "honey" pun so I guess I'll *buzz* on out of here.

[@nancydailey1410]

Is that the place they did the Magic Key Holder Lunar New Year photo opp?

[@markloving1718]

[@lateramae]

Never knew there was an orange smell inside the previous Orange Stinger ride! How odd that an attraction with a lot of fake bees would be infested with real bees!

[@mykie242]

One thing not mentioned...There are lightning bolts that flash on the underside of the ride. You have to be watching, because you'd never know they were there, otherwise!

you should do a "top 10 rides that don't exist anymore but you can still see remnants" video
