English Translation: 0:18 Welcome to the Disney Movie Parade, today with another report from Europe’s largest ghost hotel construction site in Disneyland Paris! This is where the Hollywood Tower Hotel is being built, in which very strange things happen. 0:32 And this has already happened. In one of the most exciting episodes of the cult TV show “The Twilight Zone”, a whole family disappears in a hotel elevator. 0:44 The guests of the Walt Disney Studio Park will soon be able to experience that for themselves. 0:48 The shell construction of the Hollywood Tower Hotel was built in one week in 2006. 0:53 The rest of it will take a little longer. 0:55 These ceilings and floors were built in grueling manual labor. 0:58 More than 5,000 props were purchased from all over the world to make the rooms of the legendary hotel look like in 1939, the year of the disaster. 1:08 This bare room was changed into an old boiler room from which the visitors will start their trip into the Fifth Dimension. (note: Gätjen actually says “Fourth Dimension”, but the Twilight Zone series traditionally refers to the Fifth Dimension) 1:18 But first, there is still a lot to do. 1:27 Today, the elevator cabins are arriving. 1:30 They have a long trip behind them because they were produced abroad. That’s why they are so well-packaged. 1:39 Then they are transported to the loading ramp from which the are transported directly to the basement of the Hollywood Tower Hotel. 1:50 So this is the ride of horror. 1:54 And this is the bottom of the elevator shaft with its enormous shock absorbers in case anything really does go wrong. 2:03 Tom is showing us the shaft from below. 2:06 Now we understand why the hotel is also called “Tower of Terror”. 2:16 You actually drop faster than free fall - you are pulled down. At 13.6 meters per second. 2:25 This is what it looks like through the opening for the steel cable. 2:31 And this is the steel cable. 2:35 The machine room is an engineering marvel. 2:41 The basic mechanical portion of it is right here. 2:46 Every single motor operates according to the same principle. 2:49 The motor drives the first cable drum, and that goes on and pulls the second drum. 2:53 On the first drum has wire ropes that raise and lower the cab that the guest rides. 3:01 The second drum has cables, wire ropes, that go down to a counterweight. 3:10 A locomotive has approximately 5,000 PS - but these engines are almost twice as powerful. 3:17 That part that stops it and makes it safe, are these large brakes. 3:22 There are four sets of brakes for every machine. 3:23 Of course, there’s three machines because there are three elevator shafts with the guests in it. 3:30 The electricity for the motors comes out of this building. 3:35 Those are the two power lines that come from the power station. 3:40 From here, we go to the high-voltage equipment up top, 3:47 These transformer transform 20,000 volts of high voltage are turned into 600 volts. 3:52 That powers the motors. There is one transformer for each motor, so we have three. 4:02 This is a waterproof floor to collect the ten cubic meters of cooling liquid. 4:07 That is 10,000 liters of oil. 4:10 Each transformer weighs 13 tons. 4:15 And this is where the journey in to the Fifth Dimension is controlled - 4:20 from the Tower of Terror’s computer control room, and these are the experts. 4:26 The cabins behind me store show data. 4:31 Here is where all light, audio, and mechanical equipment which takes the visitor into another world stored. 4:37 Everything that happens in this building that “isn’t right” is controlled by these cabinets back here. 4:47 That requires more than one hundred kilometers of cable and several hundred computers. But what is happening here? 4:59 Because of the way the building is set up, there are three ride shafts, we call them. 5:05 And the elevator doors open up on several different levels, and the visitor are looking at and interacting with the show. 5:13 For example, they look through this pane, behind which there is a so-called magic mirror in which he can see himself and the other guests … and disappears in it. 5:24 Only the empty cabin is left behind. All necessary tricks and effects are being installed by specialists from all over Europe. 5:40 This is one of the floors where the guests who disappear are now haunting this building. 5:45 And you will see them walking the halls of the hotel in here. 5:51 For that to happen, different spirits have to animate the hall. 5:56 Head designer David Fando and one of his co-workers arrange everything so that the hotel looks like it was actually inhabited, just like in 1939. 6:07 This was also carefully planned in advance. 6:11 Now it is ready to go. 6:16 We’re just about finished with our safety tests, and we’ll do some mechanical safety tests through the last week of June. 6:21 The elevator cab is slid into the real cab by means of a special mechanism to disconcert visitors. 6:31 Then the doors are closed. 6:36 A lot of rides we use sandbags to simulate the weight of our guests. However, they would burst because of the tremendous acceleration and sand would be thrown all over shaft, so we are using water dummies, which are a lot less messy. 6:50 They look like this and really have to stand extreme conditions. 6:56 It starts quite harmlessly, and you think that it’s not that big of a deal - if had known that earlier, I could have saved myself a lot of anxiety. 7:08 Tower of Terror. 7:13 That can only be an exaggeration. 7:16 But then… 7:20 I know I’m going to be on the ride. I love rides. I’m a huge ride fan. 7:23 When we built the Tower of Terror in Florida, I rode that attraction for three hours straight try to figure out all the profiles and everything, so I can’t wait to get on this attraction. 07:38 This was our second visit in Europe’s largest ghost hotel construction site. 07:42 In a few weeks 07:45 the Hollywood Tower Hotel will be opened for guests. 07:49 The elevator is waiting for you. 07:53 But for now: Have a lot of fun watching our Disney film. See you soon! Bye bye!

0:18 Welcome to the Disney Movie Parade, today with another report from Europe’s largest ghost hotel construction site in Disneyland Paris! This is where the Hollywood Tower Hotel is being built, in which very strange things happen.
0:32 And this has already happened. In one of the most exciting episodes of the cult TV show “The Twilight Zone”, a whole family disappears in a hotel elevator.
0:44 The guests of the Walt Disney Studio Park will soon be able to experience that for themselves.
0:48 The shell construction of the Hollywood Tower Hotel was built in one week in 2006.
0:53 The rest of it will take a little longer.
0:55 These ceilings and floors were built in grueling manual labor.
0:58 More than 5,000 props were purchased from all over the world to make the rooms of the legendary hotel look like in 1939, the year of the disaster.
1:08 This bare room was changed into an old boiler room from which the visitors will start their trip into the Fifth Dimension. (note: Gätjen actually says “Fourth Dimension”, but the Twilight Zone series traditionally refers to the Fifth Dimension)
1:18 But first, there is still a lot to do.
1:27 Today, the elevator cabins are arriving.
1:30 They have a long trip behind them because they were produced abroad. That’s why they are so well-packaged.
1:39 Then they are transported to the loading ramp from which the are transported directly to the basement of the Hollywood Tower Hotel.
1:50 So this is the ride of horror.
1:54 And this is the bottom of the elevator shaft with its enormous shock absorbers in case anything really does go wrong.
2:03 Tom is showing us the shaft from below.
2:06 Now we understand why the hotel is also called “Tower of Terror”.
2:16 You actually drop faster than free fall - you are pulled down. At 13.6 meters per second.
2:25 This is what it looks like through the opening for the steel cable.
2:31 And this is the steel cable.
2:35 The machine room is an engineering marvel.
2:41 The basic mechanical portion of it is right here.
2:46 Every single motor operates according to the same principle.
2:49 The motor drives the first cable drum, and that goes on and pulls the second drum.
2:53 On the first drum has wire ropes that raise and lower the cab that the guest rides.
3:01 The second drum has cables, wire ropes, that go down to a counterweight.
3:10 A locomotive has approximately 5,000 PS - but these engines are almost twice as powerful.
3:17 That part that stops it and makes it safe, are these large brakes.
3:22 There are four sets of brakes for every machine.
3:23 Of course, there’s three machines because there are three elevator shafts with the guests in it.
3:30 The electricity for the motors comes out of this building.
3:35 Those are the two power lines that come from the power station.
3:40 From here, we go to the high-voltage equipment up top,
3:47 These transformer transform 20,000 volts of high voltage are turned into 600 volts.
3:52 That powers the motors. There is one transformer for each motor, so we have three.
4:02 This is a waterproof floor to collect the ten cubic meters of cooling liquid.
4:07 That is 10,000 liters of oil.
4:10 Each transformer weighs 13 tons.
4:15 And this is where the journey in to the Fifth Dimension is controlled -
4:20 from the Tower of Terror’s computer control room, and these are the experts.
4:26 The cabins behind me store show data.
4:31 Here is where all light, audio, and mechanical equipment which takes the visitor into another world stored.
4:37 Everything that happens in this building that “isn’t right” is controlled by these cabinets back here.
4:47 That requires more than one hundred kilometers of cable and several hundred computers. But what is happening here?
4:59 Because of the way the building is set up, there are three ride shafts, we call them.
5:05 And the elevator doors open up on several different levels, and the visitor are looking at and interacting with the show.
5:13 For example, they look through this pane, behind which there is a so-called magic mirror in which he can see himself and the other guests … and disappears in it.
5:24 Only the empty cabin is left behind. All necessary tricks and effects are being installed by specialists from all over Europe.
5:40 This is one of the floors where the guests who disappear are now haunting this building.
5:45 And you will see them walking the halls of the hotel in here.
5:51 For that to happen, different spirits have to animate the hall.
5:56 Head designer David Fando and one of his co-workers arrange everything so that the hotel looks like it was actually inhabited, just like in 1939.
6:07 This was also carefully planned in advance.
6:11 Now it is ready to go.
6:16 We’re just about finished with our safety tests, and we’ll do some mechanical safety tests through the last week of June.
6:21 The elevator cab is slid into the real cab by means of a special mechanism to disconcert visitors.
6:31 Then the doors are closed.
6:36 A lot of rides we use sandbags to simulate the weight of our guests. However, they would burst because of the tremendous acceleration and sand would be thrown all over shaft, so we are using water dummies, which are a lot less messy.
6:50 They look like this and really have to stand extreme conditions.
6:56 It starts quite harmlessly, and you think that it’s not that big of a deal - if had known that earlier, I could have saved myself a lot of anxiety.
7:08 Tower of Terror.
7:13 That can only be an exaggeration.
7:16 But then…
7:20 I know I’m going to be on the ride. I love rides. I’m a huge ride fan.
7:23 When we built the Tower of Terror in Florida, I rode that attraction for three hours straight try to figure out all the profiles and everything, so I can’t wait to get on this attraction.
07:38 This was our second visit in Europe’s largest ghost hotel construction site.
07:42 In a few weeks
07:45 the Hollywood Tower Hotel will be opened for guests.
07:49 The elevator is waiting for you.
07:53 But for now: Have a lot of fun watching our Disney film. See you soon! Bye bye!
Dude thank you so much
Why is it that the people speaking english get overdubbed. Now I know how non english speakers feel
It seems that Mitsubishi Heavy Industries made the elevator of Tower of Terror in Japan.
It’s Otis
@@TechNerdNolan
Otis is made by Mitsubishi because they had accidents in Japan.
America is made by Otis
Roses are red, Violets are blue, the title is in English, the video should be too.

7:20 I know I’m going to be on the ride. I love rides. I’m a huge ride fan.
7:23 When we built the Tower of Terror in Florida, I rode that attraction for three hours straight try to figure out all the profiles and everything, so I can’t wait to get on this attraction.
07:38 This was our second visit in Europe’s largest ghost hotel construction site.
07:42 In a few weeks
07:45 the Hollywood Tower Hotel will be opened for guests.
07:49 The elevator is waiting for you.
07:53 But for now: Have a lot of fun watching our Disney film. See you soon! Bye bye!
@@Benamax This was very cool of you. Thank you.
The Title is not in English
great footage thanks.

wow i had no idea that tower of terror would be that tall. the workers below look tiny there.
It's 183ft tall.
the one in Florida is 199 feet tall
Where can i find the english version or any behind the scenes videos?
Hast du noch mehr von den folgen?
Übrigens danke fürs reinstellen.
das intro zur disney "filmparade" ist zum kotzen!
tower of terror hotel war ich 2008 und 2007 - einfach geil!

Is there a version of this with a translation so I don't have to listen to this in nazi?
0:18 Welcome to the Disney Movie Parade, today with another report from Europe’s largest ghost hotel construction site in Disneyland Paris! This is where the Hollywood Tower Hotel is being built, in which very strange things happen.
0:32 And this has already happened. In one of the most exciting episodes of the cult TV show “The Twilight Zone”, a whole family disappears in a hotel elevator.
0:44 The guests of the Walt Disney Studio Park will soon be able to experience that for themselves.
0:48 The shell construction of the Hollywood Tower Hotel was built in one week in 2006.
0:53 The rest of it will take a little longer.
0:55 These ceilings and floors were built in grueling manual labor.
0:58 More than 5,000 props were purchased from all over the world to make the rooms of the legendary hotel look like in 1939, the year of the disaster.
1:08 This bare room was changed into an old boiler room from which the visitors will start their trip into the Fifth Dimension. (note: Gätjen actually says “Fourth Dimension”, but the Twilight Zone series traditionally refers to the Fifth Dimension)
1:18 But first, there is still a lot to do.
1:27 Today, the elevator cabins are arriving.
1:30 They have a long trip behind them because they were produced abroad. That’s why they are so well-packaged.
1:39 Then they are transported to the loading ramp from which the are transported directly to the basement of the Hollywood Tower Hotel.
1:50 So this is the ride of horror.
1:54 And this is the bottom of the elevator shaft with its enormous shock absorbers in case anything really does go wrong.
2:03 Tom is showing us the shaft from below.
2:06 Now we understand why the hotel is also called “Tower of Terror”.
2:16 You actually drop faster than free fall - you are pulled down. At 13.6 meters per second.
2:25 This is what it looks like through the opening for the steel cable.
2:31 And this is the steel cable.
2:35 The machine room is an engineering marvel.
2:41 The basic mechanical portion of it is right here.
2:46 Every single motor operates according to the same principle.
2:49 The motor drives the first cable drum, and that goes on and pulls the second drum.
2:53 On the first drum has wire ropes that raise and lower the cab that the guest rides.
3:01 The second drum has cables, wire ropes, that go down to a counterweight.
3:10 A locomotive has approximately 5,000 PS - but these engines are almost twice as powerful.
3:17 That part that stops it and makes it safe, are these large brakes.
3:22 There are four sets of brakes for every machine.
3:23 Of course, there’s three machines because there are three elevator shafts with the guests in it.
3:30 The electricity for the motors comes out of this building.
3:35 Those are the two power lines that come from the power station.
3:40 From here, we go to the high-voltage equipment up top,
3:47 These transformer transform 20,000 volts of high voltage are turned into 600 volts.
3:52 That powers the motors. There is one transformer for each motor, so we have three.
4:02 This is a waterproof floor to collect the ten cubic meters of cooling liquid.
4:07 That is 10,000 liters of oil.
4:10 Each transformer weighs 13 tons.
4:15 And this is where the journey in to the Fifth Dimension is controlled -
4:20 from the Tower of Terror’s computer control room, and these are the experts.
4:26 The cabins behind me store show data.
4:31 Here is where all light, audio, and mechanical equipment which takes the visitor into another world stored.
4:37 Everything that happens in this building that “isn’t right” is controlled by these cabinets back here.
4:47 That requires more than one hundred kilometers of cable and several hundred computers. But what is happening here?
4:59 Because of the way the building is set up, there are three ride shafts, we call them.
5:05 And the elevator doors open up on several different levels, and the visitor are looking at and interacting with the show.
5:13 For example, they look through this pane, behind which there is a so-called magic mirror in which he can see himself and the other guests … and disappears in it.
5:24 Only the empty cabin is left behind. All necessary tricks and effects are being installed by specialists from all over Europe.
5:40 This is one of the floors where the guests who disappear are now haunting this building.
5:45 And you will see them walking the halls of the hotel in here.
5:51 For that to happen, different spirits have to animate the hall.
5:56 Head designer David Fando and one of his co-workers arrange everything so that the hotel looks like it was actually inhabited, just like in 1939.
6:07 This was also carefully planned in advance.
6:11 Now it is ready to go.
6:16 We’re just about finished with our safety tests, and we’ll do some mechanical safety tests through the last week of June.
6:21 The elevator cab is slid into the real cab by means of a special mechanism to disconcert visitors.
6:31 Then the doors are closed.
6:36 A lot of rides we use sandbags to simulate the weight of our guests. However, they would burst because of the tremendous acceleration and sand would be thrown all over shaft, so we are using water dummies, which are a lot less messy.
6:50 They look like this and really have to stand extreme conditions.
6:56 It starts quite harmlessly, and you think that it’s not that big of a deal - if had known that earlier, I could have saved myself a lot of anxiety.
7:08 Tower of Terror.
7:13 That can only be an exaggeration.
7:16 But then…
7:20 I know I’m going to be on the ride. I love rides. I’m a huge ride fan.
7:23 When we built the Tower of Terror in Florida, I rode that attraction for three hours straight try to figure out all the profiles and everything, so I can’t wait to get on this attraction.
07:38 This was our second visit in Europe’s largest ghost hotel construction site.

Pretty disrespectful to refer to the German language as 'Nazi'.
Fyou
