Disney Grizzly River Rapids Ride with Drops | Disney California Adventure 2021 

The fact that this dude got a whole ride vehicle to himself is surprising

every log ride or water ride hurts my stomach ong

best ride

We should all appreciate how Disney is committed to theming on their rides. It’s not like there was a small mountain/hill sitting next to Disneyland. This ride was created on what used to be part of the Disneyland parking lot. They literally built this ride from the ground up!

Look at that lovely blue sky and warm climate. Really could do with a holiday. Fun ride too.

I am not a huge fan of raft rides, but my son wanted to go on Grizzly River Run the weekend before last on our very first visit to Disney’s California Adventure. I am *so* glad we did! This is easily the best raft ride I’ve ever experienced. The raft was always in motion… spinning, moving swiftly through the water, going down hills. On cookie-cutter raft rides (I’m lookin’ at you, Congo River Rapids), you typically traverse a totally flat layout while slamming hard into poorly designed turns, losing speed with each bump.

This ride was painful, fun, and thrilling all in one, post-covid I went on this ride and the lines were close to nobody, I only ever rode with a full cart once, definitely underrated.

This is one ride you really need a lot of people with you to enjoy. It’s kind of sad seeing empty rafts.

On the drop at the end, I once got completely turned around right at the last second and it was completely unexpected. I thought I would be able to predict and anticipate the drop, but it was like all my confidence disappeared the second before the drop.

As I looked around at all of the trees and natural looking settings of this attraction, I couldn’t help but marvel at the fact that the last time I was at Disneyland in 1994, this area was all parking lot. What a beautiful conversion!

Dude he goes buy his self and why didn’t you invited others do come?

Must feel so good to go on in a hot day. 😎

I do like the raft rides, I also remember how Yogi and Boo Boo went down the Rapids before the falls at Jellystone national park.

I haven’t been on this, but it looks WAY better than Kali at Animal Kingdom.

My favourite attraction is Grizzly River Run at Disney California Adventure

If you go on there at night there is no line you can watch fireworks and have fun with family/friends all at the same time it’s awesome!

I like how one of the mountains is shaped like a bear

You still make the BEST ride videos!! Love putting them up on my big screen and go along on the ride. BEST EVER!!

i love this ride. i went on this with my family and one of my cousins rode this for 2 hours straight. it was later at night and no one else in the park was riding. they let him just go on loops for however long he wanted.

Respect this man didn’t say a word for the whole ride is crazy

Can someone tell me how bad the drop at the end is? My family can’t do big drops but I really want to ride this ride. Please be honest! It looks really steep and crazy but you never know

I went on this during my last Disneyland trip and prior to that I hadn't been on it in years but I forgot how thrilling it is!

This ride is a 10/10. I was just at California Adventure and Disneyland and did this ride with my family. Including a 5 year old who loved it, totally recommend.

the sad part is we go up so high and in that section theres no drop

The rapids rides is the best ride to go on when you need to cool off from the summer heat

The fact that this dude got on the ride is insane cause disneyland and Disney’s California adventure is open but they got rid of fast passes and I went to Disney’s California adventure and the wait time was 90 minutes 👁👄👁

I remember not wanting to go on this ride because of the thing that pulled you up I thought it was a big drop after then I went on it and was like oh my god I’m stupid

My grizzly river run is closed for refurbishment at my Disneyland :(

Yes one of the best rides at dca

Wow the water is so clean and crystal clear.

Never felt this was Disney quality, just felt like any rapids you'd get at a Six Flags or Knotts Berry Farm.

Man, I sure had fun on that rapid ride back on my Disneyland trip in California back in April of this year, it kinda reminded me of what would Splash Mountain look like if it was a rapid ride :)

Is this an actual person doing the recording? If so then he has some mad camera skills! Can you imagine making a killing by traveling the world riding theme park attractions!?? I wish I could.

Ok story time. I HATE drops in rides. The feeling drops give me really hurts my stomach and its exacerbated by the fact that i tense up and keep my eyes closed (which you’re not supposed to do in a drop). My older, psychopathic sister knows this. So she gets me to go on this damn ride which i was not intimidated by because we’re at freaking Disneyland! As we’re riding up that creaking hill platform i grew suspicious. Squinted my eyes at her and asked very seriously if there was a drop. She was very convincing. I wanted to look this ride up to see if the drop was actually 100 feet, like it felt. Nope. It was tiny and i now have PTSD and had to run to the toilet so i didn’t crap my pants from the memories this video gave me.

This ride is super nostalgic for me

Wow!! I wish I could be there when it's this empty. We waited an hour for this ride two years ago

water rides seem really hard to film, but you did a great job! remembered this video from like 6 months ago and came back to watch it because i love the vibe

This would be a fun ride on a hot day!

This terrified me when I was little

this makes me homesick for Disney! Would have liked to have seen a bear of some sort.......

When I was little, I was afraid that a bear was gonna pop out when we went inside the caves.

I remember when the ride broke down at the final drop when I was 7 years old and I freaked out because we were at the very edge for 10 min…

OK, this is one of the best Rapid Rides of all time!

grizzly ok, but brother of bears would have corresponded better according to me

I'm way too terrified of raft rides, never going on them again because of how many accidents there have been

I’ve been on one of theese rides before I was laughing bc my aunt was about to get wet a lot she was like :0

In my 39 years of life and 29 years of loving rapid rides, I have never seen one with drops.

We were just there a few weeks ago. This was our 4-year-old's first water ride. She loved it. :)

Dude, I've been to Disneyland so many times and have literally never got to ride this. Sometimes it's closed but more than often I wait in line til I get to the front then it stops working ... I've given up.

you know, I've never rode this. I generally skip the water rides in fear of catching a cold (happened when I was a teen at Great America after their water ride). Might have to actually try it sooner than later.

I love water rides like this

I love water rides so much 😭

I miss this ride so much and I miss getting soaked!

Wow! That looks fun. I should have been riding that ride during my first Disneyland vacation.😃

That fact that he never dropped the camera is pretty cool

Wow, that's a long ride, looks awesome, thanks for the fun

I remember riding this on my ninth bday with my best friend, dad, and some random family (very nice people btw). We got soaked and towards the end we passed under a bridge and there was an elderly woman (I believe the other family’s grandma) just pointing and laughing her head off at all of us saying “I told you!!!” 😂 good times!

Such an awesome & fun ride specially in summer.it’s more fun if more people are sitting with you too. One of the best rides specially in summer!! Love it

I went there yesterday & can say you did an amazing job capturing the full ride experience!

We should all appreciate how Disney

I love this ride so much!!

WE HAD PARTY BOAT GRIZZLY RIVER RAPIDS WITH DROP

I'm getting up there in years so my favorite rides have moved from roller coasters to raft, plume, skyrides, trains, etc. I would like the drop on this one though. I'm still up for a little excitement!

One of the most underrated and best rides in DCA. Just hope a boat doesn't tip over. These rides kill you know.

i rode this, you cant even feel the drop

The scariest part of this ride is going up at the begging

one time- a few years back, my friend’s family and my family all rode together on this ride. my dad turned around right as a wave came in and he turned around, his face was wet 😂😂

Very long and nice course:)

"River Rapids 1 was great"

I really love your videos, but had to stop watching this one. So much panning gave me a headache. Can't wait to see more though!

I love that you get your own raft!

(if someday this ride reopens) you know what would make this ride more awesome since the voice of J. Audubon Woodlore is announcing the safety procedures, why not add an animatronic Humphrey the bear to the ride and make a story surrounding him since grizzly river run has a bear theme, after the safety announcement Ranger Woodlore tells the guest "That Silly bear Humphrey, has been spotted in Grizzly peaks and some unnamed fake guests have been giving humphrey some food, so he's hoping more people would feed him Donald has a small speaking role telling his encounters with Humphrey (basically during the ride, especially the rapids Humphrey tries and fails trying to get some food, even going to great lengths however near the end he gets all wet and ends up into a water raft that get beached on the side all dizzy and confused

Some more scenography wouldn't have hurt, but otherwise looks pretty good!

This was one of very few rides at California Adventure that stay with me. California Screamin', Orange Stinger (it smelled amazingly like citrus), Sun Wheel (still one of the best ferris wheels in the world) and Grizzly River Rapids are the only rides worth going on. And if you know rides by these names, then you know how long it has been since I been to DCA. Before Tower of Terror, before Cars, back when that area was still a small parking lot.

Great video my friend!!!!!!👍🙋😍

went on this when i was a kid and had no idea there was a drop at the end. started crying when i saw it 😭 but it was really fun regardless!

I remember me and my family going on this as soon as dca opened. Nobody was there so it was cool!

I'm not sure what they said in the beginning, sounded Japerican. Why wasn't there anyone on the ride? Blows?

Hello, just want to ask you guys, if we can take our 4 years old son to this ride? Thank you, answers appreciated

Is it just me or did I think on the drop the raft would flip over and I would drown. I think negative a lot when going on rides Ik

my favorite part was definitely the finger wiping the water droplets off the camera lens

Fun ride but thunder river in six flags in Georgia is way more fun,you get soaked.

Sounds like Mr Smee to me

Seconds I love your video

closest thing to splash mountain if it didnt exist pretty much

Just makes better to watch this now they. Cant say not go on it star at camera thank god they all left finally no ones say crap

last time I went on this ride it stopped right before the big drop and I had to wait there for almost an hour

:30 WHY do we need these over the top wacky goofy voices???

Any water rides ruin my day nothing worse be wet all day getting burns between legs when walking

im trynna go on this next time im there i forgot to a month ago 💀

Just like you can build in those _RollerCoaster Tycoon_ games! Ever river rapids ride I've been to in real life, whether it was Roaring Rapids at Six Flags over Texas or Renegade Rapids at Frontier City in Oklahoma City, there was no going down besides the rapids, and no going up until the end. And this one has at least somewhat longer downhill sloping on it! This is *my* kind of river rapids ride... only I'll probably never go there, as it's in California. Too much money just to travel without any provisions of any kind and never go back where I came from.

This ride was so fun when I did it last The lines are horrible though

I love that you have your own raft! I've been fortunate enough to have a raft to myself but only if I ride early in the day, maybe within 30 mins of the park opening.

When I went on this I went down every drop backwards and got soaked

Wonderful waterway (and all the backstage machines that make it function!) i prefer the log-boats tho, as these round ones constantly rotating drives me bonkas!

Very Beautiful 😍😍

I thought this was knots berry farm for a second 😭

Is it me or is it the first drop you get more wet on?!

Reminds me of the time I told my son it was his last time going to Disney Land. He begged me to go on Grizly River Rapids and we stayed in the park till close!

Yes smell u as we get back lol i went on this alone befor same thing
