Broken kid



It was pretty funny to see this seal kissin' kid completely broken. He was stuck in that pose while the seal attacked him. The other kids were laughing.

A Family Attraction!



WoooooooooWeeeeeeee! Full frontal nudity Audio-Animatronic style! We call this figure "Ms Easy Living" and I'm sorry but she's HOT!Did they need to sculpt her torso for this scene? Hell no. Did they anyway? HELL YES!

This rubber chick is even hotter than the Red Head in Pirates! Disagree? You're nuts.

Bath time

While Chief takes care of the mini farmer girl I'll get back to "Easy living" bath tub chick.
First, it was incredibly hard to run up the spiral staircase and get pics of her. This shot was my first and I wasn't happy with it all. REWIND.

REWIND to the time we were doing this stuff. I would take my pics to my boring desk job and scour them for any detail I wanted to see more of. I made a list based on these pics and checked them off as we got them. The list, which I still have, was really long and it seemed we would never finish it but we wanted every detail documented at all cost.

It's REALLY stupid to jump out of your ride vehicle on a Disney ride and we knew that. I suffered a fractured bone in my foot and Chief cut his head wide open once or twice. This was also pre 9/11 when things were very different.

Attractions close and that's the natural order of things. Ask Mike at Widen Your World. He knows. Somehow Horizons had such an impact on Chief and I as kids, and the time was right, that we had to do what we did at any risk.

Don't try this......EVER

Audio

Hey! You already know we had our video and still picture cameras BUT we also had our audio recorder. We would take that thing and leave it in scenes to get the full loop several times over. There's plenty of cool background noise and shit like that. Do you want us to post that stuff? I know everybody likes studio tracks so maybe live recordings aren't good enough.

Chief and I like the live tracks because it reminds us that we were really in the scene.

Want 'em?

How many people riding Horizons yelled out "Hi People" to the animatronics? You'd be surprised.
