This person is trying so hard to rotate their phone back and forth to show as much as they can which is ironic since if they just filmed horizontally instead of vertically we would have been able to see much more.
When I worked for Disney years ago, I was able to talk a tower of terror cast member into giving me a backstage tour of the ride after hours. The 5th dimension scene is designed to be an elevator shaft if you were looking up. That’s why there are pipes and gears lining the walls.
I was always confused at the scenery in that part - just thought we were behind the scenes of how an elevator works or in the dingy part of the hotel. This makes SO much more sense now!
@@Solstice2820 How do you know that is really wear or just made to look like it. After all, this is a abandoned hotel so every part must look like it has been occupied for decades.
FluffyMintOreo they need to not run the ride at all once the lights turn on because it makes many people feel uncomfortable, anxieties will sky rocket and it won’t be funny when someone dies.... Additionally, Disney World needs to get their shit together...
@@ixisduran7036 chances are the ride before them missed to magnet to send them forward so a cast member had to come up there and fix it, which is why the work lights are on. Along with the fact that their ride delayed as well, this has nothing to do with Disney itself.
@@werefang the ride is clearly having issues. The fact that they were delayed shows it. This isnt just Disney going "whoops we forgot to turn off the lights!"
@John Cumbo Do you have a beard and were you wearing light blue t-shirt? If so I'm the guy in front of you yawning in the photo. Or maybe I'm mistaken and I was on a different elevator.
A different car got stuck / the magnet was off so that car shut down for safety reasons obviously lol. But when that happens work lights come on so workers can get the people in the affected car off the ride. But since car was fine they just kept going!
Actually not possible they shut the ride down if there's lightning anywhere in a 20 mile radius as it's a very tall structure that has open windows. The shaft also is equipped with a mechanism to slowly decend to the bottom if something happens which is VERY VERY rare. So this comment is 100% fake!
It's usually a special event thing or a malfunction. It usually happens when a car gets stuck in the other scenes, the car their in continues on because it's fine but the lights come on so they can get the other people out. Like space mountain the lights come on of a car gets stuck or it shuts down
I rode tower of terror when I was in 5th grade and passed out. I don’t remember anything but a friend trying to wake me up while we were on the ride because I fell over on her. Poor girl lol
One of the other cars most likely had a problem with the magnet (if a car is even 1/16 of an inch off it shuts it down very very safe stuff in there) so they had to go get them off the car . This car was fine so they just kept going. The work lights come on when there's something wrong! Nothing to be scared of just the workers helping people out
No, at least it's never happened, it stops before it drops or goes up. And if it did have to stop it has a safety thing that just brings it to the bottom
Yup, it's happened quite a bit. When the unloading floor is clear, they close the doors (if they are open), and the elevator moves down to the unload slowly.

Death penalty for vertical filming!

However you did that, that’s amazing
This is more anxiety inducing than the actual ride 😭😂
Yeah 😂
Yep. The look of the elevator and seeing the wear of the metal is more unsettling than the real thing
@@Solstice2820 How do you know that is really wear or just made to look like it. After all, this is a abandoned hotel so every part must look like it has been occupied for decades.
@@gissneric no i mean the part where the wheels of the ride vehicle roll. it looks unsettling.
@@Solstice2820 That’s actually part of the ride system. The vehicle actually follows those lines on the floor for guidance.
Lights on gives the whole ride a creepier vibe to it. Just feels very remote or lonely.
finally a decent video of the lights on tower! thank you!
This ride was ridiculoussss
Elevator, Goosebumps (2nd one)
Well having no sound effects just ruined the entire thing😵
This is what I cried over
Those people really need to be quiet
I know all i hear is SPACE MOUNTAIN
Twilight Zone Tower of Steel Pipes and Gears?
Twilight Zone Tower Of Silence!
The 5th dimension scene was designed so that it looks like you’re looking up through an elevator shaft.
You can legit hear him grip the phone tighter
How come ppl can ride it with lights on 😂 is this like a special occasion thing or accident
They were having technical difficulties with the ride and when that happens normally the lights turn on.
FluffyMintOreo they need to not run the ride at all once the lights turn on because it makes many people feel uncomfortable, anxieties will sky rocket and it won’t be funny when someone dies.... Additionally, Disney World needs to get their shit together...

Zoe Treher Hmm alrighty.
@@werefang the ride is clearly having issues. The fact that they were delayed shows it. This isnt just Disney going "whoops we forgot to turn off the lights!"
Cool !!!! Love it
Was this accidental or was this something you could arrange?
econojon it was accidental! They thought the ride went down so they turned on the lights but it just kept going! I took that video!
@@johncumbo9111 woah that's crazy. This ride actually looks scarier with the lights on!
How can you arrange to have the lights on? Never heard of that
I took that video!!!!!!
They should credit you in the description ♥️
That explains why the person I got it from was so free to share it. John, do you want me to credit you? Or I can take it down. Your call.
@@johncumbo9111 Absolutely!
@John Cumbo Do you have a beard and were you wearing light blue t-shirt? If so I'm the guy in front of you yawning in the photo. Or maybe I'm mistaken and I was on a different elevator.
Why were the lights on?
Thumbs down for not knowing how to shoot video on a cell phone in 2019. I feel like I am peeking through a keyhole! 2/3 of the screen is wasted.
Can I ask what the occasion was that lead to you being able to ride with the lights on? Was it backstage tour or something?
I think I was on this elevator. I hear my voice and see my hand. What a small internet.
I don't believe you.
And I took the video lol
@@johncumbo9111 Is this your UA-cam channel or did you give it to them?
Looks like my dream come true!
So lucky
Why would they run it with the lights on?
A different car got stuck / the magnet was off so that car shut down for safety reasons obviously lol. But when that happens work lights come on so workers can get the people in the affected car off the ride. But since car was fine they just kept going!
I got stuck at the top once cuz of lightning
Actually not possible they shut the ride down if there's lightning anywhere in a 20 mile radius as it's a very tall structure that has open windows. The shaft also is equipped with a mechanism to slowly decend to the bottom if something happens which is VERY VERY rare. So this comment is 100% fake!
TOWER OF ERRORS!
Omg the twilight zone is really a twi ‘light’ zone 😂
Nice joke.
Wow what a big boi
Shut up and take my like
looks like a real run down elevator
It is.
This is actually scarier than riding WITH the lights off and sound effects on, cause you don’t know when it’s coming LOL
Almost cried on this ride and made a huge scene😂
Was it scary? 😂
Chey Crow yes but it was a fun scary
Totally fun scary!!! lol
@@EvanAviator that’s what my parents said “If just tours you around the hotel” they said “it will be fun” they said
What do you call the tower of terror when it breaks down? Tower of error
I’ve always wanted to see the AGV lock into the shaft with the light on! Awesome!
Variety Entertainment bro I swear I run into you on every video haha
i've been dying to get a glimpse of the drop shaft car since they converted the car lights to LED last year
You mean the VVC?
how did you get to do this with light on, and no sound?
How do they get the lights on videos
It's usually a special event thing or a malfunction. It usually happens when a car gets stuck in the other scenes, the car their in continues on because it's fine but the lights come on so they can get the other people out. Like space mountain the lights come on of a car gets stuck or it shuts down

I rode it when i was in 2 grade now im going to 8th and ima ride it Saturday again!!
It’s acting like a drop tower that goes up high in the sky than it pulls you down stops in the middle than goes back up then goes all the way down
I'm suprized this ride is still running. Your so lucky to ride with the lights on by accident lol.
Hated this thing with a passion. I was white as a bedsheet after getting off. Never again
Did you film this on an LG Scoop?
This is great. I have a vid of the Haunted Mansion when the lights went on during a storm. Greatest day ever:)
Tower of Terrible
Bro I wanna ride this so bad but i’m such a whimp😭
Why run the ride with lights on? Where's the fun if everybody can see you pull a handful of pennies out of your pocket before the drop? 🤷♂️
Why would you want to take away all the parts that make it immersive? 🤷🏼♂️
I always wanted to see this
BROO it’s the tower of error
What happened?
One of the other cars most likely had a problem with the magnet (if a car is even 1/16 of an inch off it shuts it down very very safe stuff in there) so they had to go get them off the car . This car was fine so they just kept going. The work lights come on when there's something wrong! Nothing to be scared of just the workers helping people out
not really alit to see
Is it possible to get stuck on the ride when the drop is happening?
No, at least it's never happened, it stops before it drops or goes up. And if it did have to stop it has a safety thing that just brings it to the bottom
Hi👋 water bottle I like your comment!👍😀
Yup, it's happened quite a bit. When the unloading floor is clear, they close the doors (if they are open), and the elevator moves down to the unload slowly.
“it’s like space mountain” uhh no it’s an elevator drop ridee
Why is. There no video
Looks like tower of terror encountered errors
I just rode it today
This ride isn't scary. If you want scary, ride X2 at Magic Mountain.
Where is magic mountain
Imagine waiting 9 hours just to ride on a trampoline.
Horrible filming, let me actually see it. And why does everyone keep filming the wrong way? Portrait. Video is supposed to be widescreen.
