That classic opening! The choregraphy/stunts changed since then. Reminds me of my internship with WDI and one of the stuntmen taking time off to talk with me after a show in relation to the LMA stunts back then. Really kind people.
I was casted as an extra a few years ago and it was literally the most confusing experience of my entire life. The sound was very clearly oriented torwards the bleechers and I still have no idea what happened or what I did during the show. Honestly, it doesn’t even matter, I CAN FOREVER SAY I WAS A PART OF IT AND THAT ENOUGH FOR ME 🎉
It's not one attraction in particular, but I'd like to see you covering a Belgian Theme Park, I think we (as a country) are greatly overlooked when it comes to theme parks.
Awesome! I caught your new video on my break. Cool! Hopefully one day we'll get Adventure Thru Inner Space, America Sings, Spaceship Earth, Journey Into Imagination, and even Muppet Vision 3D
I’ve watched this show 2-3 times in the past 6 months. Sadly, my last showing eliminated the propeller killing the mechanic. He just got knocked out with a wrench….I really hope that was because the trap door wasn’t working. I hope they aren’t diluting it even further.
little bum it’s pretty simple. “Universal closes the fantastic Jurassic Park ride. A few weeks later, the ride is reopened as a lazily made piece of shit”
It now has been seven months since your last video, why are you not coming out with new content? Are you dead? If you're not, please make a new video explaining why you left. Please, we miss you!
To me, the stunt show needs to go, but keep the Indiana Jones theme. That large space can be made into a mini land with the Market Place (not as big as Galaxy’sEdge or Toy Story Land) channeling the Indiana Jones franchise that lead into a dark ride. The dark ride can mimic the stunt show as a nostalgic nod. I like the idea of the franchise becoming a land and dark ride. The sets and props can be reused. It can be an immersive experience for guests, instead of just a spectator. Guests can experience it at their own pace, instead of set show times. I have a memory delaying my dinning because I was in the show.
Would love to know who holds the record for being an, "extra." I've been twice, but the were 10 years apart. Someone out there has to have an insane record.
Had a great experience on this late Sept 2019. The show ended and we're at Gertie's having ice cream. The German mechanic comes walking by wearing (basically) the same thing he wears in the show with a jacket over it. Despite being the same cast member that 2,000 people just saw and still in costume, no one recognized him. You could tell he was just trying to make his way to Hollywood Blvd as quick as he could without being noticed. We didn't want to out him, but when he made eye contact with everyone in our group looking at him he knew that we knew who he was. Someone in my group yelled "How did you survive?" and he just smiled and said "I'm faster than I look" and kept going.
Ironic, because I know him, or at least, my mom does. He's one of my mom's friend's hubbies. He may be a relative, though, unsure, since it's super early in the morning, I'd have to fact-check.
@@AMan-dt4dh No kidding? That's great! Really tall guy with a beard? Would have been late Sept 2019 but I've seen him there since at least Jan 2019 as well. Cool dude. Made our day.
@@fifthrider Yeah, he's the guy with a beard. It's pretty crazy to think of, but I asked about it, though it's so indirect, I doubt they would know us.
The part where the truck flips over and "explodes", the stuntwoman playing Marian is actually never inside the truck. You can see a bunch of crates near the truck bed after it flips over and while the crew is extinguishing the flames (and creating a smokescreen), the stuntwoman secretly emerges from inside one of the crates and miraculously bursts through the smoke. It's a neat trick, provided the crew doesn't skimp on the extinguishers like they did when I was there!

I remember watching the halftime show where they rolled out rolling ball show elements with Indiana jones grabbing the super bowl trophy instead of the idol. I thought it was awesome!!!
My favorite attraction at that park. I finally got picked as an extra in 2010 and I was thrilled. Darn it I missed that special crossover. I was there in June and in October in 2010.
Can you please cover on two videos about the history of these two attractions at Disney’s Hollywood Studios in Florida: Voyage of The Little Mermaid and The Hunchback of Notre Dame: A Musical Adventure?
Two major changes were done in the show, 1. The removed all Nazi symbols (obvious reasons) 2. When on the final roof they originally used a zip line down instead of jumping off the roof.
I got to work this show till March 2020 on my DCP!! Kevin is an amazing guy and was super kind to us. Fun fact, he also trains a lot of the current Indy's as well as being apart of the show! Also for the 30th anniversary of the show, he performed his role as Indy and did the first scene, rope drop and all, so it's nice to know he's still got it haha! Each one of the cast members on our last day (and as of writing this the show's last day) were so kind to each of us. They're like a huge family and are super close to each other and to many of the cast who help as ushers. I'm so happy that several of those stunt men and women were able to find work at Universal's new stunt show The Bourne Stuntacular. Here's hoping they can get back to Disney real soon! Great video!!!
I went in 2019 and got to be an extra! Went again back in February of 2020 and I noticed that Indy didn’t come from the ceiling at the start and they didn’t do the truck exploding scene with Marion “inside” of it. I recall it being a somewhat windy day. Were they executing an alternate version due to said winds? The truck explosion I recall is staged as a pick up shot. I suppose they were concerned the wind might blow the smoke and fire in a direction they weren’t comfortable with controlling.
I got picked to be an "extra" in this show a few years ago...had a lot of fun doing it...after we were done our part they gave us water in a paper cup lol
Whenever I watched this show, I always tried to scan through the audience to look for the loudest-dressed person sitting there. 9 out of 10 times, that person was picked as an Extra and turned out to be the stuntman plant.
Hey Theme Park History, if it's not a copyright issue, can you reupload your year 2 and 3 trailers I especially love the year 2 one it's so epic I love it!
Phenomenal stuff man, this show is by far the best at Hollywood Studios and a personal favorite of mine, can you do Haunted Mansion next?!?!?! that would be insane that's the greatest dark ride in the world.
Back in the 90s (I was 19 or 20), I got picked to be an extra. I was one of the "screamers". Back then I was able to let out this ear-shattering "wake the dead" shriek. I remember the "casting director" was all "Who was that?! GET HER UP HERE!!" It was a lot of fun to do. I got a photo of me somewhere on the stage, in costume.
So my parents took my siblings and I to Disney for my 5th birthday. We went to Disney MGM. I, at the time, was afraid of everything including my shadow. I’ve been told that in the part where the boulder rolls out (iconic, I know)…… I got up from my seat…… and ran for the emergency exit, screaming that the boulder was gonna crush us all.
so i got a good story with this atration, some time in the 90s i would say when i was maybe 5 or 6 so like 92 -94 i fell foward and sliced my finger open on one of the old plastic stile seats (before they went to bench seat) all i remember is i almost needed stitches had to go back stage and had a giant rolled up bandage on my finger. some one in my family always gets injured going to disney. i went a couple years ago and met their stunt bad guys dude looked like zengief from street fighter 2 made me look tiney and im 6 foot 1
I actually have a friend who played the German Mechanic back in like 2016. Great guy and gave me a small crash course in stage/screen combat I just realized that my friend is actually the demolitions expert at 12:49
This is one of the few shows that is truly timeless in my opinion, I hope this will stay in this theater for a long time
That classic opening! The choregraphy/stunts changed since then.
Reminds me of my internship with WDI and one of the stuntmen taking time off to talk with me after a show in relation to the LMA stunts back then. Really kind people.
I hope that he keeps making these amazing informational video for years to come
I was casted as an extra a few years ago and it was literally the most confusing experience of my entire life.

I'm not first,I'm not last, but when I see a Theme Park History video I click fast
Since it's close to Halloween, how about a look back at the "Alfred Hitchcock: The Art of Making Movies" walkthrough at Universal Studios?
And don't forget Flight of Fear!
And Beetlejuice's Graveyard Revue, if you don't mind. Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice!
Defunctland has a great episode on Alfred Hitchcock. You should check it out.
@@BowserMovies1989movie made in USA LA CA USA for sale in movie part in doing more research on Walt footsteps tour guide Legends of life
YES! This show opened the year and month I was born :D Always been a favorite and a must see whenever I go to WDW.
I remember being a part of the stunt show with my wife on our honeymoon in 2004.
Best stunt show at any park!
It's not one attraction in particular, but I'd like to see you covering a Belgian Theme Park, I think we (as a country) are greatly overlooked when it comes to theme parks.
That Star Wars crossover would be so cool.
You used so many clips from all kinds of shows! Thank you for helping us remember all of the people that make this show spectacular :D
Auzrill it’s the same show, just different runs of it. They all follow the same script and events, he even explained that the actors cycle.
@@rosariobono438 I'm aware :) I've been a tech at that show for the last 5 years.
can you do the history of the timekeeper?
Awesome! I caught your new video on my break. Cool! Hopefully one day we'll get Adventure Thru Inner Space, America Sings, Spaceship Earth, Journey Into Imagination, and even Muppet Vision 3D
Hey, Theme Park History! Could you please do Flight of Fear at Kings Island and Kings Dominion?
The History of Millennium Force!
the thumbnail is actually my mom and her friend kevin, and they still work at the show.
I remember the early days when it was just the temple scene.
Dennis Smith it was never just the temple scene. It always had 3 parts.
Please cover Alfred Hitchcock the Art of Making Movies. That place was awesome. Universal Studios Florida
Can you please do a history on Muppet Vision 3D and Mickey's Phiharmagic?
And now i vote for Universal Studios Horror Make-Up Show
Can you do the Jurassic World ride?
Mission Space!
Could you please do the history of the Hollywood rip ride the rockit?
I’ve watched this show 2-3 times in the past 6 months. Sadly, my last showing eliminated the propeller killing the mechanic. He just got knocked out with a wrench….I really hope that was because the trap door wasn’t working. I hope they aren’t diluting it even further.
Yessss I got the notification during class but as soon as it was done i clicked the vid
Can you do the history of jurassic world the ride
little bum it’s pretty simple. “Universal closes the fantastic Jurassic Park ride. A few weeks later, the ride is reopened as a lazily made piece of shit”
Obsidian Mother calm down son it a work in progress not a da Vinci perfection

@13:04 "stunt women" lol
I always wondered... are all the audience picks plants? Or just the one Marian beats u
Obsidian Mother There is only one plant per show. The rest are random park guests. I was one of them two years ago!
Disney... Please don’t turn this into a screen-in-a-box ride!
yeahthatstony the last time they made one of those was at least 2-3 decades ago
can u do Efteling From The netherlands or Toverland pls

disappointed because of the lack of mention of swoozie and the showtime magnet
The last time we saw it in 2019 one of the crew gave my daughter his lanyard with IJ Crew on it, very cool of them
That’s awesome!
That is awesome
I got a pair of the actors gloves and a signature I have proof imgur.com/gallery/4IdB4pv

Had a great experience on this late Sept 2019. The show ended and we're at Gertie's having ice cream. The German mechanic comes walking by wearing (basically) the same thing he wears in the show with a jacket over it.

Imma be honest I forgot muppet vision existed. I love that thing
Or both

18:24 the mashup show was well received
*Cuts to George Lucas questioning why he gave Disney the rights to do this show*
Great episode! Didn't know about the Star Wars crossover!

I remember watching the halftime show where they rolled out rolling ball show elements with Indiana jones grabbing the super bowl trophy instead of the idol. I thought it was awesome!!!
Oh man, I SHOULD have included that somewhere in this video, what a missed opportunity!
Mission: SPACE? When?
Can you please cover on a video about the history of Honey, I Shrunk the Audience at Epcot/Disneyland/Tokyo Disneyland/Disneyland Paris?
TPH saving my covid blues
Please do Loch Ness Monster at Busch Gardens Williamsburg and The Beast at Kings Island!
Loch Ness Monster was the first major coaster I ever rode. It was great.
Who provided the voice of the voice double in this episode?
My favorite attraction at that park. I finally got picked as an extra in 2010 and I was thrilled. Darn it I missed that special crossover. I was there in June and in October in 2010.

Do the TRON roller coaster or Jurassic world the ride next plz!
TRON there isn’t much history for the tron ride. And Jurassic world isn’t even the original name

Pancak3s12 mission space not mission to space
The stage show has always been my favorite thing to do at Disney! Thanks so much for the video! Still sounds weird not calling it MGM studios!
Well here’s hoping the stunt show can exist for 30 more years to come!!
Woah, I was just watching another one of your video’s and then you post this 20 minutes ago. What a coincidence.
Such a great channel... Thank you for this amazing videos and all the research behind it. I look forward to watch more
Since it just closed, and it's close to Halloween, maybe do an episode on The Walking Dead Maze at Universal Studios Hollywood
Can’t believe Kermit killed a man
Well I mean his father killed Elmo grandpa for not likening Wilkins coffee
Yay new video great vidoe tph! I love this show and I love Indiana Jones it’s such a good show!
I got picked to be an "extra" in this show a few years ago...had a lot of fun doing it...after we were done our part they gave us water in a paper cup lol
Do lights motor action extreme stunt show!!!
You should do The Great Movie Ride next
This show never needs to change. On it's 50th viewing it's still as phenomenal as the first.
This show was what got me into the franchise and perhaps action movies in general.
My aunt and uncle often play the director and assistant during this show 🥰
Always been a fan of your videos. I didn't feel so much history or background of the show.But... great job as always
Sorry to say it but I like the stand-in voice better
I agree
This was a great feature of the old MGM. It was still fun as Hollywood Studios but not as cavalier as the original days. Great memories!
Whenever I watched this show, I always tried to scan through the audience to look for the loudest-dressed person sitting there. 9 out of 10 times, that person was picked as an Extra and turned out to be the stuntman plant.
In the near future can you do Knott’s Berry Farm rides like the Timber Mountain Log Ride
First saw this show as kid in 1990, and finally got to bring my kids back in 2016 and 2018 to see it.
Because it's looks like new season start hollywood MGM sounds great and good to I just love it so much real life show documentary about biography
0:14 Kermit with a gun is the most scariest thing I've seen
Muppets at Walt Disney world and Disneyland before New TV show
