    You’re so awesome! I’m loving all the content you’re posting. I used to go to Disneyland about every other year. I’m now a young 74 with mobility issues and can’t go there. When I watch your videos and I go back in time to some of my favorite memories. So much has changed. I was 5 years old the first time I went. That was in 1955 when it first opened. I loved pirates of the Caribbean and haunted mansion. Through your videos I have even been on rides that didn’t exist while I was still going. Your kind words at the end are very special to me. I know you’re talking to me because I can feel it in my heart. There’s a special place in heaven for a person like you. 😊😊😊

    I worked on the castle...I replaced 3 of many doors on the roof/castle. Including the one at the top.of the castle on the back side facing fantasyland.

    Walking through the castle is a must do for my family. My wedding was Sleeping Beauty themed, and my wife and I then went to Disneyland for our honeymoon and walked the through the castle as newlyweds. We were so saddened when they closed it after 2001, but are very happy that it is back (even though we aren't together anymore). The 1977 version was full of dolls that were posed in the windows and not animated frames like now. You can still see the pictures of the 1977 version pretty easily online.

    I used to love hearing Jimney Cricket singing "When You Wish Upon A Star" as you passed through the castle gates, magical. I always go through this attraction and reminds me of the first movie I went to see, Sleeping Beauty, age 4.

    I'll be honest: the subject wasn't too interesting to me, but i wanted to be sure that UA-cam counted my view, so i fast forwarded to the end so that it would give you credit for the view. I didn't realize how much i needed your affirmation. We are going through a super complex issue in the extended family involving the subject that no family ever thinks that their kids will have to face, and I'm a big pile of "should have" and "how did i miss it" and "I could have done something" and I really am beating myself silly. This isn't the first time your positive affirmations have found me in a dark place and been a bright spot. I'm sure it won't be the last. Thank you for what you do.

    Sleeping Beauty was actually the first attraction I thought of as a possible contender. I've been through it countless times. Didn't realize it had been shut down for years & thought I just had unfortunate timing of going to Disneyland when it was closed for annual maintenance. Hopefully, Disney does not make such a foolish mistake again.

    I've taken my kids through this walkthrough many times, I was sure you were going to say the least popular attraction was something like the Frontierland shooting gallery. I do appreciate that there is never a line and these vignettes are so high quality when compared to other parks with similar attractions.

    5 yrs ago (in Sept 2019) at 71 yrs old I went to Disneyland for the very FIRST TIME!!! I was booked for a hip replacement for Nov, so my family rented a mobility scooter for me and I had the best time!
    My family didn't do the castle because they didn't want me to feel left out ... but now that you've pointed out that lovely accessible area, even though my mobility is better, I will still be renting a scooter to keep up with the family - and we'll ALL definitely visit Sleeping Beauty's Castle when we come again in Feb '25 (to celebrate my 77th b'day, and my g'daughters 22nd b'day) 🎉🥳
    God bless you sir 🙏 - your kind words at the end are needed and appreciated by many.
    ps: any Disneyland / CA videos made for people with accessible needs (mobility scooter, wheelchair, etc) are always most welcome. I'm now going to look for those 😀 🛵

    • @whtutlknabtwlls4266
      @whtutlknabtwlls4266 Місяць тому +1

      Disneyland has done a good job on making their rides accessible, but Some are easier than others. Finding Nemo has a room similar to the Castle. Jungle Cruise and Small World have dedicated boats with platforms that wheelchairs and scooters drive onto if one cannot transfer. Little Mermaid has a dedicated omnimover for wheel chairs. I think Haunted Mansion has something similar, but have not personally seen it. The Train has platforms at the Tommorland and New Orleans Square/Frontierland stations. Some rides will only be accessible if you can transfer from the scooter to a specially adapted seat on the ride.
      The only attractions that come to mind where accessibility will be an issue are parts of Tom Sawyer’s Island, parts of the Redwood Creek Challenge Trail, and The Sailing Ship Columbia.

    Thank you so much for featuring the room for people that have mobility issues. It should be pointed out more (especially from Disneyland UA-camrs). It was only a few years ago that I discovered it. What you forgot to show (probably because others were in there) is the Royal chair/bench you sit in while watching the movie. I feel like a queen sitting in the grand chair. I didn’t know about the keyholes. Can’t wait until my next trip to look through them . Thank you again, Chris, for all the secrets you share in your videos. I’ve been a huge Disney fan all my life of 64 years and I’m always thrilled to learn something new. Your channel is amazing. YOU are amazing. 💜🎃👻

    Me! It's one of my favorite nostalgic places. I had no idea a character shows in that little cell window, but I did get a goon to pop up on me in there. The other one with the pacing spear also has a pop-up goon. I think you have to get super close to the glass to get it to work. It can be tricky, but I’ve seen it scare people really bad.

In Tomorrowland ,the leftover area of the fantasyland skyway, the foundation that you can still find pieces of , the Monsanto house of the future, the Dominguez tree next to jungle cruise. The oldest tree in Disneyland that's not on Storybookland. Some odd stuff, that some may not know about. Great video as always!

    Hilarious story I read about Walt and castle before any attraction. It was full of feral cats. He went back there with someone wearing a white suit. All of a sudden, the suit turned gray. Fleas! They both darted out, trying to get past the crowds without sharing their cargo. They made it to wardrobe so they could shower and change. Walt ensured the cats were removed, cleaned and adopted.

    Second genration here of going into the Sleeping Beauty Castle and loved it. Now the 4th generation can see this. Will be going to Disneyland next month and can't wait. I want to in 2025 for my birthday in July. Yep! Disneyland and I are the same age.
