What Your Favorite Disney Myth

[Old_School_Goofy]

I thought this could be a fun way to explore the myths of Disney.

My personal favorite myth has 2 versions to it.

Walts Head being frozen and at Disneyland.
In the first version his head has been placed inside a cubby hole at pirate's bridge above the line entrance.
The second version is his head is frozen and stored beneath tomorrowland.

So whats your favorite?

I like the myth that the Lost-Kid's Center at Disneyland takes the kids and kills them just to use their bones as special effects in the Haunted Mansion.

*Hehe*

That he was into witchcraft. Heard that a lot when I was a kid. Not that it was a bad thing.

Do I dare ask what the dome myth is.

Re: What Your Favorite Disney Myth

Do I dare ask what the dome myth is.

Some people think Disney controls the temperature inside the park because it is completely covered by an invisable dome.

I always say that one day they will have a dome, I'm joking of course but I didn't know that people already thought that. Well if you ask me they're not doing a good job at it then....lol.

When Disneyland first opened it was powered by orphans who ran on tredmills. Today, those kids are the New York Yankees.

DCA is powered by Walt turning over in his grave.

Okay, that's not a myth, it's just funny.

For the record: I believed the myth about Brigham Young's hearse for years, and for good reason - Disney perpetuated this myth as their official story. The packaging on the model version of the black hearse in front of WDW's Haunted Mansion states that the actual hearse in front of DL's Mansion is the same that carried Brigham Young to his grave. In actuality, Mormon tradition dictates that the deceased be brought to their grave by hand via pallbearers, and it is more likely this is how Young was borne to his grave. There is no record anywhere that a hearse of any kind was used.
