It's a Small World - Opening Ceremony 

It truly was a small world in 1964 when this Disney Audio-animatronic Flume Voyage Attraction Opened at the World's Fair in Flushing, Queens. The world had become much smaller in the previous decade though Our Military Industrial Complex developing the B-707 & the fastest Ocean Liner in the world, to this day, The SS United States.The Exposition's theme was "Peace through Understanding". Pres. Kennedy had challenged us to achieve greatly & live in peace. The dream lives on. NYC:EXPO 2020

I don't give a crap about the bad things people have to say about It's A Small World. I love it with all my heart c: The song it cute and I don't find it annoying no matter how many times I hear it; also the Clock Tower makes me smile and Walt really loved the ride which makes me love it even more. Oh and the dolls are NOT creepy!!! D: It's what you people think that makes you see them that way...

The birth of my favorite attraction of all time

The attraction opened at Disneyland in May of 1966. This program must have aired shortly after that. Walt didn't have much longer to live by then, and I think you can sort of tell in this video.

this is a classic it shows what happend on that day lol Walt hired ppl of all cultures

I wish I could of been there when this happened. I bet it was amazing...

What an amazing wonderful video💕💙✨☺️♥️thank you for sharing..Mr.Walt Disney was such an extraordinary man♥️

This brings back so many memories

Happy 50th it's a small world

I believe they are going to keep it as authentic as possible. It's on of the only rides in Disney World, I think, that hasn't has renovations. I don't think they would, unless it is in DIRE need of repairs.

Walt made sure everything was perfect back then. I have a feeling he's turning over in his grave with the plans to change the ride.

wow when disney has a new ride they see to it that its given a respectable opening

Happy❤innocence of my childhood

The band was amazing

Beautiful video

@YourCartoonHero It went under renovation in 2004.

That was beautifully written! ;-)

After taking this ride with your kids or grand kids try to get that song out of your head. Even in the movie Shrek thay made fun of it.

I dont know why people have put thumb downs for the comment saying Walt Disney died the year "It's a Small World" opened =/ Its true. "It's a Small World" opened May 1966 and Walt died December 1966.

Great video. This is Disneyland though, not Walt Disney World.

Cool❤

why do people say walt disney was a nazi lol

The water from other countries was only symbolic, and probably it was gone do to filters the next day?
