"A really bitchin' single rider queue." Maybe my favorite quote in all of fresh baked history.

Hello from San Diego! Watching this on /11/2020....When I was a kid, I remember Tinkerbell flying down from the Matterhorn at dusk, I believe just before the parade. I love your videos! I found you thru Best Life and Beyond!! You all have great videos and content!! Thank You!!

Matterhorn and Small World are the 2 rides that they CAN NEVER get rid of.

@jaboy9309 7 лет назад

I know it's a joke but Disney will probably never get rid of this ride as it is one of the most famous attractions they have.

My history teacher worked for 15 years at disneyland as a cast member and was one of the people to actually put up that basketball hoop. And his buddy at the time was the first guy on the scene the day dolly died.

@masterimbecile 6 лет назад

That’s awesome! It’s kind of what I hear before I took Spanish class. And, hate to be that guy, in case people are wondering, it should be “permanecer sentado por favor”.

Dakota55 no it's cinnamon toast and tacos por favor (please)

@elijahschuyler 8 лет назад

IDK why but this is one of my favorite rides at Disneyland. My other favorites are Pirates of The Caribbean, the Haunted Mansion and Big Thunder Mountain Railroad.

@methsicle5675 7 лет назад

Ahhh only true Californians know the struggle of when this ride was closed for hella long time

@BigahhTex 6 лет назад

Meth Sicle what about space mountain being closed for two years

@lauricarlson7867 4 года назад

Big thunder mountain railroad was closed one year

@UncaAlbyGmail 3 года назад

yah and now (Jan 2021) *the whole damned park* has been closed for almost a full year.

@wallaceproject 10 лет назад

Without a doubt one of the best, most innovative rides ever made. So glad that only Disneyland has it.

@FreshBakedDisney 10 лет назад

You're right. We get this one all to ourselves.

@unograndvalley 8 лет назад

We were here a couple years ago waiting for the ride to open one morning. As we were waiting in line, a lady walked by and asked why the ride wasn't open yet. Without missing a beat papa says, "there is ice on the tracks, they are trying to get it thawed off". The lady says, "really"? Totally believing it. Lmao

I always thought I was the only one who noticed the big mickey on the matterhorn, I never heard anyone else talk about that it really helped clear that up. Thanks!

@anastasiacaffee4930 7 лет назад

i like these vids of yours hope to see more secrets and history of disneyland :D

@Ericland_Entertainment_Inc 6 лет назад

The Matterhorn is a perfect example of one of what I think are called "Walt Moves". Walt sees something, he likes it, it's going in his park. Once he likes something to such an extent, there's no changing his mind, and good luck changing that man's mind xD

@FindingTheMagic55 6 лет назад

Good point !

@2doot 9 лет назад

Great video! :D Also, I am kinda glad that the cars were redesigned to have indevidual seats because it was awkward having to sit on someones lap in order to ride...

@spokanetomcat1 6 лет назад

The first time I went on this ride was in 1965. Ten year anniversary of the park. They had a singer near the ticket booths on a ledge where it looks where they play at today. He had lederhosen and accordion yodeling songs and getting the crowed into the mix. Glad they finally brought it back. It was one of the best memories at the park back then. When they added the tandem car it slowed down the ride a whole lot. It also made it rougher in the turns with that join bar holding it together. Loved taking the sky way through the mountain. I understand the loading house in Fantasyland was torn down. The other I believe located in Tomorrow land may still be there.

@kdm71291 3 года назад

Wonderful theming...always a feel-good experience...always fun! And I love all the videos of Fresh Baked riding it....hilarious!

@joeylantis22 9 лет назад

My favorite Disneyland ride. I almost wish they'd make an alpine village down at the base of it, but I know there's no way for there to be room for that :(

@Gigidag77 8 лет назад

The "Hidden Mickey" is just the former Skyway Hole that has been covered up a bit.

@theendofit 8 лет назад

pepole see hidden mickys all the time where there are not any. its like seeing the "Illuminati" everywhwere. triangles are seen everywhere becuse you connect any 3 random points not in a stright line and you have a triangle. hidden mickys are seen do to the fact that disney uses circles and arches alot. there are very few "sharp" angles in disney. the rounding corners and shapes adds a whymsical feel to things eventuly a couple of those shapes stack and happen to make a genrial micky shape. there are real hidden mickys but they are always very clearly supposed to be micky

@WaterFaucet24 3 года назад

I was at the park the day before they shut matterhorn down and got rid of the older tandem cars. I rode matterhorn over ten times until the park closed, I still miss those cars. I think I love those cars and the ride because it was one of the first roller coasters I went on and being able to sit closely to my parents helped me with my fears as a little child.

@FindingTheForce 3 года назад

I remember hearing the rumor of the basketball hoop in 6th grade, before the internet! 🤯

@ndguy 10 лет назад

Thank you Dave for your awesome knowledge and historical facts on Disneyland's Matterhorn!!! I learned a few new things on the world famous attraction! This is the best Matterhorn video that I've seen ever!

@FreshBakedDisney 10 лет назад

Thank you Randy!

@thedobolife 10 лет назад

this was uploaded on my birthday! the Matterhorn is on my absolute favorite attractions, thank you for this amazing video!

@BethCampbell-b9c 3 года назад

I remember the “E” tickets!! Was soooo glad when they got rid of the tickets!! You bought your booklet, the “E” tickets were also the first to go and finally you had to figure out what to use your “A” tickets on!!

@MUNDOM316 7 лет назад

I do miss those old lap seats. best ride to take a date on

@floridafun7805 5 лет назад

I can ride Big Thunder Mountain Railroad over and over -- day or night. Seven Dwarfs Mine Train, too. But when it comes to the Matterhorn, once in a blue moon is fine.

@BigCheese1611 10 лет назад

YES!! This is the best video on the Matterhorn! I had no idea about a lot of that stuff, thanks for the info! I can't wait for more Secrets and History videos! Fresh Baked!

@FreshBakedDisney 10 лет назад

We'll knock 'em out one by one :)

@MrMrMrprofessor 10 лет назад

Growing up in Kentucky and going to college in South Carolina, I've only ever been to Disney World in Florida. I've seen so many videos of Disneyland on RU-vid and what I wouldn't give to visit it just one time! Great videos!! They're full of so many interesting factoids and info :)

@FreshBakedDisney 10 лет назад

Thank you! And thanks for watching! Here's to hoping you can make it down to Disneyland some day.

@AlfredoCarlosAG 10 лет назад

Great video!, I am a Walt Disney fan since I was a kid, I once read in a book that, while construction at Disneyland was in progress, Walt had an appointment with several important investors at the site, but at the time the meeting had to take place, nobody could find him, afterwards, they found him sharing a lunch with some surprised construction workers at the top of the yet unfinished Matherhorn.

@JoeyBBugg 10 лет назад

@FreshBakedDisney 10 лет назад

Thank you Tia. We'll be starting on our next one fairly soon I hope.

@Milkman4279 7 лет назад

I'm glad they changed the seating in the cars. The last time i rode the matterhorn i was with my niece and sister-in-law, i definitely wasn't riding "tandem" with them!

@ewfwrestlingnmore 10 лет назад

You guys should do more videos like this! They rock! FRESH BAKED!

@FreshBakedDisney 10 лет назад

We will. Thank you!

@BroadwayGalGA 8 лет назад

Great job on giving the history. I loved the old photos. I rode it in 1972 when the inside was "unfinished." I remember being surprised that the inside didn't look like a mountain, but seeing all the supporting structures and seeing all the other bobsleds whizzing around made it scary. I guess I rode in the original bobsled design. I like both the unfinished and the finished versions of the ride. It is truly one of a kind and definitely a Disney treasure.

@lorenzomedel6222 9 лет назад

Rough ride indeed . when it had two passenger cars.my wife sat in front of me. The sled whipped around the corner then up. My wife flew back in between legs . She just about killed me. Guys you know what I'm talking about. It almost ruined the day. My wife felt so bad. I recovered and we had a great day. After all its Disneyland the happiest place on earth.

@sned2112 10 лет назад

Excellent video. I would love to see one on every ride in the park. Well done.

@DavidALucasComposer 9 лет назад

Inside of the original Matterhorn, I remember when being pulled up the hill you could see an old cement mixer, and a puddle of water at the bottom. Also, the ride use to have areas where it was designed to make extra noise. When a car would approach one of the breaking hills it would make the sound of chains shaking. I remember the hollow mountain being much more exciting. Thank you Fresh Backed Disney for a great video.

@DiamanteDea 3 года назад

@maxoct97 7 лет назад

I've watched a number of your history videos. They're excellent! Well researched, edited, and narrated. I know this takes a lot of time and appreciate the amount of effort you put into it. Thank you and keep up the excellent work!

@pedmst 4 года назад

Very concise and informative. We first went there when I was 9. I got off the ride crying. In the turns toward the tight i was so compressed by my sister and Mom i couldn't breathe. It terrified me.

@rogerearp3 10 лет назад

Love it guys. Everything involved with Fresh Baked is awesome, but Secrets and History are beyond my favorite. Well Done!! I Need MOAR!!! = ) haha

@FreshBakedDisney 10 лет назад

thank you! Moar coming!

@josephbingham1255 4 года назад

Persons on the skyway gondolas would also sometimes dump popcorn and other things onto the riders on the Matterhorn ride.

@markraymond3886 10 лет назад

Sweet video, I enjoyed every second. I'm old enough to remember riding the Matterhorn before all the ice caves. The mountain was hollow and you could see down inside from the Skyway. There was one big hole at the top of the lift which gave you a great view of Main Street. I have a few photos of the hollow mountain. I still love the rides but my butt doesn't like the new sleds.

@thecreativekid13 10 лет назад

Awesome video! I'm definitely going to look for the "Wells Expedition" equipment, next time I go. Your next video in this series should be about Pirates of the Carribean. :7)

@SD2OCsponger 8 лет назад

I am a new sub and have always loved Disneyland. Watching your videos has shown me secrets and history I never knew! I actually never heard about the basketball court in Matterhorn. Keep up the good work Fresh Baked, You all are awesome!

@MountSellout77 9 лет назад

FreshBakedDisney You might know this already but in the Wells Expedition area, there's some rope that actually makes up a Hidden Mickey. Just wanted to let you know. ;)

@squidgeehoddog6980 9 лет назад

I was so scared of the Yeti on both tracks I would cry every time I just saw the mountain. And I remember Sitting with my dad on the two seated seats, I'm sad they changed that.

@kkck2000 10 лет назад

@TheColdfloor 8 лет назад

I remember being scared to death on the Matterhorn when I was a kid because they didn't have any seatbelts,rails or anything to hang on to!Those rockets that flew sky high in Tomorrow land were designed by crazy folks too because that ride didn't have any handrails or anything either.I haven't been there for 20 years cuz I live in Mississippi now but I hope other folks have something to hang on to now on these rides.

@ea3513 10 лет назад

@alskndlaskndal 10 лет назад

Very informative, I didn't know a lot of these facts.

@Bellinghamster 10 лет назад

I like the single file car/sleds on the Matterhorn. It carries many less passengers than larger cars on other coasters but it gives you a whole different experience. I just wonder why they can't refine the tracks to give a silky smooth ride. This Is A Really Great Video.

@BenHodgeThemeParkEndeavor 9 лет назад

Thanks for the short documentary, I used to love the Matterhorn Bobsleds before the last refurbishment, now it's just a little too rough but still ok.

@FreshBakedDisney 9 лет назад

Ben Hodge It is a bit rocky, but I do still love me some Matterhorn.

@fishbonkers 9 лет назад

Ben I agree with you. Not a fan of the new sleds

@susanf915 7 лет назад

I still remember when they had one seat belt for each tandum seat and they would often let three kids cram onto one seat. This was in the original single sleds (f I recall correctly, they put the individual seat belts in when they did the major rehab where they added Harold and started putting two sleds together). Incidentally, as someone who had an annual passport for years, the Tomorrowland side really is faster.

@UFOBobTV 9 лет назад

@kaionarice6197 6 лет назад

I know a fun fact! My mom and grandma say that the Matterhorn used to be a slow ride with no Harold, I think sometime in the 70’s (I honestly don’t know) that is when it became faster, and added Harold!

@pyrat_g5913 10 лет назад

@FreshBakedDisney 10 лет назад

oh we will...eventually.

in the 80"s tinkerbell glided down from the mountain one day and the harness broke and she ended up in the sub ride waters. just missing the coarl in the water.

@ohjoy40 5 лет назад

My all time favorite ride at Disneyland. Opened the same year I was born. Being that I have a bad back I have found a new way to ride the Matterhorn without it hurting my back. Simply sit up in your seat and ride it like riding a horse. Trust me it works ! I have wondered if it would be logical to make a adjustments to the track to make it smoother but being the original steel coaster you just cant touch it. I like the updates but you cant touch the track.

@lilycvbed 8 лет назад

You forgot the complete redo of Harold included in the 2012 makeover, along with the ice on the side of the wall at the start of the ride which has a digital screen of the yeti walking behind it. No hate though, awesome, informative video as always!

@RichardWoolf1 9 лет назад

Thanks. The Matterhorn is my favorite at Disneyland! Another odd bit of trivia, Then Vice President Richard Nixon and family were the one of the two families to get to ride the Matterhorn, along with Walt Disney and his wife and daughters. I had read somewhere that the future President injured his back from the rough ride (but cannot find any other written evidence of this).
