Can you spot all the character cameos? Feel free to comment the timestamps! Also, CORRECTION: The story about Piglet happened at Crystal Palace, not Chef Mickey's. Also, I'm on Tik Tok because I wanted to stop copycats from pretending to be me. Elise Eklund did the same thing. Tik Tok is full of misinformation, and I want to combat it by adding in real research that's as factual as I can make it.

As someone who uses disability accessibility passes, thank you for mentioning that we aren't just skipping the line just because. The amount I've been chewed out because of needing to use the pass and getting on at the exit is disheartening and does take away from the fun of amusement parks sometimes. We literally couldn't do amusement parks without the accessibility passes.

I think a lot of them ARE skipping the line just because. Not all of them, obviously. But no-one likes queueing for rides unless the queue is extremely well designed, so some people will just use their disability as an excuse to skip the line. I remember when I was around six, I used a ride accessibility pass because of a mental condition I have. I felt guilty, because I had queued up for rides before, so I didn't really need the pass. So, I have never used one of those passes since, in spite of my parents telling me that I'm entitled to these passes because of my disability. My family really doesn't respect theme park etiquette. I plan on continuing that unless I go back to Chessington; Dragons' Fury's queueline is dreadful, and I really do need to skip that one. But I do agree that people shouldn't just assume that people don't really need the ride accessibility passes.

@@me-myself-i787 I totally get that. For my brother and I we cant handle the crushing of lines so that's the main reason we use the pass. That being said, I'm always like no rush to put us on. We can wait a few cycles, just in a less crowded/crushed area. My brother also doesn't do well with the back and forth switch back line cues especially if there is nothing to distract him unlike how Disney's queues have things going on. I can do longer waits in regular queue lines than my brother can but if the wait time isn't crazy, we'll try to wait in the regular queue. I do prefer when passings let us use the fasttrack lanes so we are still having to wait some and it doesn't make me feel as guilty as going through the exit does.

Yeah. I can't tell you how many times I've witness people being obsessed with characters because they happen to wear very 'revealing' outfits that make them hot and attractive, but as I am a character designer myself, I can tell you that just because the character looks attractive, that doesn't mean they're interested in sex, in many cases the reason why they wear revealing outfits that give them the side effect of looking attractive is because they're fighters and are very fit, you gotta wear the right clothes like a sports skirt, tank tops, shorts or specifically designed clothing to move a lot more easily when running, getting through obstacles and fighting enemies and fully sleeved clothing is not the best at active moving. In some cases, the character also wears these outfits because they live in a really hot environment like a desert where fully baggy clothing isn't ideal when exploring in the heat.

The family went to Orlando and got to do a lot of cool stuff, including Disneyworld. They got to skip lines and all, and a father from another family got mad that they were skipping the line. The employee told him they were with Make-A-Wish, they have a very sick child who is most likely terminal.

A note on the accessibility one at the end. Remember that not all disabilities are visible. My brother is autistic, but it’s not obvious to everyone just looking at him. We used the accessibility entrance for him at several theme parks when we were kids because he has problems with crowds and tight spaces. And there were people who gave us dirty looks from the regular line because he wasn’t in a wheelchair or anything. It wasn’t like we didn’t have a wait at all, it was just a different wait than most people were getting. This was also 20+ years ago, so I hope people are more accepting of it now.
@OverlordZeroULTIMA
@OverlordZeroULTIMA Год назад
As an autistic myself, THANK YOU for pointing that out! And heck, mental disabilities aren't the only ones that aren't visual. Heart problems and maybe even certain cancers aren't visible, unless you have the equipment to see inside a person's body. My mom had heart problems and used a pacemaker so she would walk slower, or use a wheelchair/motorized scooter. When she got worse, it was defintely the latter, especially in large places like theme parks. If we were just going to a restaraunt, we'd just hold her hand or something and help her to a seat and such. But even then, I remember some kid once asking (maybe they actually just flat out said it) "why is she walking so slow?" or "she's moving slow" and I admit, I got kinda ticked. But luckily the parent(? Idk, an adult with the kid) answered with a more general answer, "Some people move differently" or something. I was able to accept that instead of what I would've shouted (which I won't post, LOL; I wouldn't had used vulgar language, but I would've been very angry and had a sharper tone). I'm sure it was an innocent thing, but I want to say the tone was kinda...Off...So idk how genuine it was. I think it was, if it was a question; It was years ago and my mom passed since. TLDR: Just agreeing with what you said. Not all disabilities are visible, so don't just assume we're cheating the system or something. (I also struggle with large crowds, and even certain temperatures, such as extreme heat, and loud/sudden sounds) Editing because I noticed a typo. Words how? XD

The staff came out and told us we would have to leave; everyone laughed at them, becaus we would be wet to the bone in about 2 seconds of that rain. Eventually they worked out a way for us to change places with the guests inside, so that they came out and we went in the exit. This actually made the whole experience that much more memorable.

I immediately told her the exact thing you said in this video, implying that if she asked nicely I would let her out of line so her kid can go, I totally get it.

@danasymons1149 Год назад
One thing I've always hated is when parents try to sneak their kids onto a ride they're too short for and then get mad at the ride op/security when they call them out on it and ask them to exit. From the perspective of the other guests, it holds up the line and makes what should be a fun time completely awkward and from the staff perspective, they're being berated for enforcing basic safety protocol. But more importantly, from a parental perspective, you're putting you're child's safety at risk, just so they can do a ride. Obviously, having your child rejected for a ride they were looking forward sucks, but those height restrictions are often the absolute minimum for the ride to be safe. The fact that thee are parents that are willing to look past that, just because they don't want to deal with a little disappointment, makes me absolutely mad. Side note, this is infinitely worse if its actually the parent that wants to do the ride, and they just didn't have anyone to watch their kid, especially if the kid clearly doesn't want to do it themselves. I have unfortunately seen that before.

Luckily we managed to get all the rides in before the storm hit. I remember sprinting back from the Kingda Ka Photo Booth (we were using it as shelter, did Kingda Ka earlier in the day) to the car and having to ring my clothes out at the motel we were staying at. Can’t believe people are stupid enough to believe that park employees can just turn the weather off.

As an employee of a theme park, I have actually dealt with most of these. Another thing that is annoying are the guests who climb on walls, rocks, hills, and support structures for roller coasters. In addition to character harassment, even employees who are in costume during Halloween events get groped by guests. But another one to add are the guests who complain about the prices of everything.

As a smoker, I am actually glad that you brought it up. I can't speak for the rest of the world but in The Netherlands (and most of western Europe) it has been prohibited to smoke in queue lines for a very long time and I often notice people (mostly teens) smoking in the queue line. The funny thing is that it bothers me as much as a non-smoker because I do not need somebody else smoking in my face (which is why I adhere to the rules). A fun fact perhaps is the following: I live about 30km from the Efteling and have been going there since I was a toddler. It's layout is very big (for Dutch standards bc we're a small country), and they actually refused to adhere to government ruling that smoking would not be allowed on company grounds anymore (as well as theme parks) and Efteling was hesitant because maybe people who smoke wouldn't like to go there anymore if they weren't allowed to smoke. Yet a couple weeks ago they changed their mind and posted an updated map which shows the new designated smoking areas (apart from the ones in 'sprookjesbos' which already were in place because of the kids). I think this has to do with the fact that some people never look around themselves and think of others. Speaking for myself (and probably others), I tend to move out of the way of kids (but also people in general) or, if that's not possible, at least make sure I puff my smoke toward the sky to avoid blowing it toward kids and often had parents (and other people) say they appreciated me thinking of them. In conclusion, it's just sad that people (in NL at least) disregard others when thinking of others tends to cancel out the problem. Once again, that's the experience in my country and I don't know how it is elsewhere :)

I had only one reported success of someone getting removed from the park after cutting the line. If any of you are familiar with the queue line of Iron Rattler and its switchbacks, then you know how steep and tall each new switch back is from the previous. A group of teenagers climbed the switchbacks vertically, stepping on people's heads to reach their one friend in line. They would grab mine and other people's feet from below because of the height of the switchbacks under me. I notified a ride operator of the problematic teens. The ride op questioned the kids, a lot of people began to murmur from that area. When the ride op came back, he said more about how when the kids climbed on top of the other guests in line to cut, anyone who retaliated against the kids would get spat on. They were escorted out of the park by secutiry and their parents notified.

One of my favorite experiences at a theme park was during a ride breakdown. We were waiting at the Flying Dutchman in the Efteling (Theme park in the Netherlands (HIGHLY recommend BTW). And just as we we’re about to step in. The ride broke down. They expected it to be fixed very fast. So we got to wait in the que for the ride itself. And we were talking about the park with one of the employees while waiting. And it was really fun. Pretty much everyone who worked there loved the park. So we had some fun conversations and even took a picture. Eventually they said it couldn’t be fixed in a timely manner. So we were let out, and had to go somewhere else. Was it disappointing we had to wait? Of course. But it was still a really fun experience. It also helped that the que is so good that it could be a walkthrough attraction on its own.

I don’t recall any death glares from anyone, but I felt the guilt and fear that drove me back home after a tension between a tour guide and a traveler who tried to help me by pushing the wheelchair… but wasn’t allowed because he was too reckless and kept running into other guests. I felt awful for potentially causing the near incident, even though I was just trying to take care of my very sore legs.

I went to Cedar Point last summer and was really looking forward to riding Gemini. It had an unusually long wait time because several other rides were down and the blue train wasn't running. We eventually got in line and it was pretty slow. We watched the trains go up the lift hill together and saw that the blue train stopped at the top. The red train went by as usual and ran the course. Speculation began as to why the blue train had stopped. Many people, including myself, believed it had something to do with its previous downtime. Because it was stopped on the track, the trains in the station could not launch and the red train that had finished the course could not unload. Shortly, several ride ops walked up to the top of the lift hill. After a brief discussion with the front of the train, we all saw it. An iPhone in the hands of the person in the front row. All of this confusion and frustration because someone wanted a selfie on Gemini. He was met by three security guards at the ride platform and "politely asked to leave".

While cutting in line is normally frowned upon, there are few exceptions. Rejoining your group after running off to the bathroom, rejoining your group after having to take an emergency phone call, and if you are going to a theme park on a hot day 🥵, rejoining your group when they get closer to the ride's entrance after you had taken a few minutes to cool down in the shade (this is something I had to do while waiting to ride Tron Lightcycle Run at Disney World for the third time last week since I was still recovering from the heat stroke I suffered the previous day and couldn't handle standing out in the direct sun during that time).

If you need water cause its hot get a water bottle and plan ahead, or lose your place. Everyone else is thirsty too and many don't have the option to go cool down. Having one person wait in line for others undermines the entire reason the rest of us are standing there.

For context, portions of the line are underneath the catwalk that guests use to exit the ride, which leaves some shady areas. The specific day I was there, it was INSANELY hot out. There was a family of 5 who continually held up the line because they’d only stand in the shade to stay out of the sun. They’d literally let everyone ahead of them walk ahead for RIDICULOUSLY long stretches and back up everybody behind them just so they could stay in the shady areas. The line got backed up past the entrance gate and the family didn’t speak English so nobody could ask them to be respectful and keep moving. It was AWFUL.

LOVE your work, Man. I shared your video last year about what not to do in a theme park with some of my fellow ride ops at Oaks Park, and they loved it. It literally covers 95% of the crap we complain about. I will definitely share this one, too. If you ever make it up to the PNW, be sure to hmu!!

Great video. I work at the front gate at a theme park, and I'm in a wheelchair. I know I'm not the only one, but there are some guests who make jokes about us or harass us more than the able-bodied people. Ableism is everywhere!

Honestly don't think I've ever been this early to a video! I honestly don't understand why people are rude to anyone at theme parks. I went to Disneyland Paris for the first time a week ago and meeting the characters was honestly a childhood dream come true and I had nothing but love an appreciation for them. Interacting with Mickey, Alice and Mad Hatter, Pluto, Winnie the Pooh - it was honestly so special to me and I'm so thankful for the actors for their work ❤️

My Dad used to work at Silver Dollar City and he claims things like this happened before. He claimed while he was operating Lost River (a former ride), guests came up to him and claimed At there was Human Waste all over the line, it turns out there a kid in line with his mom and the kid needed to use the restroom really bad but the mom didn’t want to leave the line, they had to shut down the ride and decontaminate the whole line, The Mom and kid were never caught.

I worked there 89-94. "Where is the hotel at?" "Why doesn't this town allow car traffic?" "Building that cave under the park was a great idea. It gives people a cool place to get in out of the summer heat." "How long did it take for you all to build the cave?" "Why did you all build this park in such a hilly area?" And because of the "woodsy" essence of the park, people seem to think they can urinate ANYWHERE. Many a time I saw a long stream of liquid rain down from up in the queue line of the Wilderness Waterboggan. People are nasty.

Some parks still run certain rides in the rain. One of my fondest memories is Six Flags Great Adventure riding Great American Scream Machine in the rain and getting pelted with needle like rain drops in my face. We marathoned that ride 17 times in a row back in the day.

One of the biggest things that pisses me off are when parents are irresponsible at amusement parks and do things that can result in the child getting seriously hurt or worse. Two weekends ago my family and I were at Hershey park and we saw two separate families doing this at different times of the day, the first one was a kid who tried to jump off the train ride while it was in motion and the second was in line for the Trailblazer a little girl was swung her legs over the railing at the top of the stairs and was about to jump, and in both of these instances neither parents were paying attention to their kids and I don’t even wanna think about what would’ve happened if my family and I hadn’t yelled for them to stop. There are many other things park guests do that get under my skin, but this really pisses me off.

Parents who try to get a kid on a ride they are too small to ride, and argue with the ride operator. Or worse try to force their kid on a ride the kid CLEARLY is afraid to ride because they are crying and the ride staff doesn't want to have a frightened kid on a ride they don't want to go on. Saw this plenty of times when working at Geauga Lake Park and Cedar Point.

I saw that happen at Legoland Windsor once trying to get on the Jungle Coaster. There was a man at the front of the queue with his son who must have been no older than 5 and was clearly under 1.1m tall and he kept on pulling his son up onto his tiptoes insisting he was tall enough while arguing with the operator.

Guests I’ve dealt with: -Asking me if we take cash (not as annoying sometimes, but still annoying, as we have signs everywhere, and have been cashless for a while). -Guests that try to use someone else’s season pass, and then complain when that person is not actually with them. (Also: guests who refuse to leave the lane when their pass is denied, and intentionally hold up everyone else behind them). -Guests who complain about parking prices. Employees do not control the prices. -Guests that don’t even stop at the booth to pay for parking and just speed through.

I work in an amusement park in Spain and sometimes the guests ask very stupid questions. The most annoying thing in my job is to tell the guests that pick a table in a restaurant I work at and start eating food that is not from the park (we have picnic areas in the park,and the big restaurants have signs that say that only food bought from the park may be consumed there,if people bring food for their young kids -around 4-5 years old,the kid can eat there) and usually they ignore me or argue with me or my superiors And the same thing happens with smokers,there are smoke-free areas but I constantly remind people that is not allowed to smoke nor vape (there is no mention of vaping in the park's rules but we consider it smoking)

This "Hating it Before Riding it" thing also applies to Disney Parks! Tony Goldmark can relate! When "The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror" was going to be replaced in Disney California Adventure with "Guardians of the Galaxy: Mission Breakout!", to say that fans were outraged would be a complete understatement! And on top of that, when Splash Mountain was announced to be given a "The Princess and the Frog" re-theme, a Sonic the Hedgehog Fan Animation creator I used to be a fan of disliked the announcement with his explanation being, "I had a f&#@$d up childhood, and Splash Mountain is pretty much my last remaining bastion of happiness. I am not well."

Oh God, that last one. "They're retheming my ride based on a racist movie to have black people in it? THEY'RE RUINING MY CHILDHOOD!" I mean I'm hopeful the black people wasn't the thing, I can understand a bit where they're coming from, but boy, does it sure sound like that. That all said, I can agree with the outraged fans for that first one. "Sure," said the manager, "let's replace one of the most iconic theme park rides on the planet with a ride themed after a property everyone knows we just bought to make shittons of money. Nobody's gonna care." Yes, Twilight Zone didn't exactly belong to Disney to begin with either, but I'm sure it wasn't as blatant.

One guest that makes me so angry is when a person with a young child, who is too short for the ride, gets all the way to the front of the line and acts like they are innocent. Your three-foot tall preschooler won't be able to ride the Millennium Force , you should have checked at the front of the ride queue.

I can not wrap my mind around how dumb people have gotten. I have seen so many guests in parks ( I do not work at one ) that have asked ridiculous questions and done some of the craziest ( dumbest ) things I have ever seen. I have actually been in the guest services a few times and said that because the rides did not live up to their expectations they wanted a refund, and if a refund was not given they threatened to sue, and even threatened violence on employees and security, as well as other guests. I have even seen some guests climb into restricted areas and attempted to climb onto roller coasters while in operation, meaning the were trying to get onto the actual track while the ride was in motion. I am so happy to have seen this video, and as funny as it seems to be, this is actually a HUGE problem in parks. Unfortunately, I see this getting much much worse in the future. Thanks again for the video.

Great video! These are so annoying but something else which is super annoying is when you are patiently waiting for your turn to take a picture with a mascot and kids just run up to them, their parents not telling them to wait for their turn and just taking pictures like you weren't here waiting as well (it works as well when you want to take a picture on a throne or in front of anything else). Same thing when you try to take a picture and people cannot just wait 2 seconds and pass in front of you with no excuses. (One of these character cameos is Sanji, right?)

If you think about it like about 10% of Disneyland rides are out side. Most are in closed rides. It’s not like if you went to six flags or Knott’s in the rain that would suck. At Disneyland you can still have a good time even in a rain storm.
