New King of England. Sword pulled from the stone at Disneyland

[DisneyLifer]

A guest was able to pull the sword from the stone, which sits in front of the King Arthur Carousel.

They were super quick to replace it afterwards, too. I think i saw before/after pictures on one of the threads here and it looked a lot nicer. I was surprised they did it so quickly, versus just leaving the stand empty with the cover over the mechanism.

If I am not mistaken didn't the guest actually break the sword rather then actually pulling it out? I know there is a lock on it that Merlin can disengage so children can be chosen to pull the sword out successfully while adults can't regardless of strength. I remember as a kid it seemed daily a child was chosen by Merlin and they had a whole show around it.

I remember a whole event type thing that would happen with Merlin. Someone would be chosen to pull the sword out after letting some big guys having a try.
