The people mover was public transport for visitors, not a ride as such. According to another TH-cam video, the inventive design was reused at one or two non-amusement locations.
Former cast member here from Disney World Orlando. Unless you are actually in the bathroom stall, or the changing room, assume that a camera can see you. You should also assume that there is a security guard within 100 feet of you at all times. Trust me, they'll see you.

@@maehbheales2144 it wasn't just a small scream, like we were having fun. I made a blood curdling, top of my lungs, full breath, scene from a horror movie. Stupid kid. They even turned off all the sounds and turned on the lights. I did get to see the graveyard fully lit.

@@MiaMizuno I wonder what other things Disney deals with every day. In addition to what I did, my brother and his friend got stuck on Tom Sawyer Island, they wanted to camp there. He also bounced into HR Puff N Stuff and knocked him over. I can laugh now, but geez we were little brats.

Well, he was a people and it moved him. [Yes, it should be "person", but it's a "people-mover", not a "person-mover". As a proud grammar "nazi", I would ordinarily shun such a construction, but I am also something of a pun-whore, so here we are.]
In line with disney not wanting memorial tiles: it's not uncommon for families who've lost children to take a "legacy trip" in the next year or so, either because the trip was planned before the terminally ill child passed away or just in their memory and to cheer up grieving siblings. It's become a tradition for people on legacy trips to write their loved one's name on a mickey balloon and release it. When I worked info we'd have people come up to ask for sharpies for this, and were specifically coached to ask them not to write dates of death on the balloons in case other guests saw. I don't really know anyone who enforced this, because who wants to confront a grieving family about a balloon, especially one they're about to send up into the atmosphere anyway? (Also a custodian once told me that they had a special high-powered vacuum for dumped ashes to do a thorough cleanup, but that the vacuum was emptied into the same dumpster as everything else. Not a dignified end)
I worked at Journey into imagination with figment during my last year (2017-18) with Disney. At the end of the attraction where guests get off the ride, there is a spot of ashes that were ingrained into the track wall after someone dumped them when the vehicle came to a stop. This was a while ago and I did not see it happen, but it got ingrained in the wall when the next vehicle came by before anything could be done about cleaning it up. Guests are unable to see that spot, but as a cast member, it is very noticible, and personally I hated that position. The position is called spark in the dark, and we have to wait in the dark for the next vehicle to come in, all while standing in close proximity to dear departed grandma.
@@dovie2blue that is a very good question. I dont know how, because it happened before I got there, but that is what I was told by other cast members who were there when it happened
i dunno, in that case i'd advise people instead to dump their cremains almost literally anywhere else if they aren't enchanted with the idea of their loved ones residing in a dump
They were affected by so much radiation their innards liquified, it's kinda just a human shaped sack of fluids, not much body left to preserve. Also that's a MAJOR exposure risk, keeping those bodies around for such a prolonged period of time. And then there's the burial, they were concealed under concrete so as to prevent the radiation from spreading. That would be extremely difficult to excavate, I imagine.
As someone that used to be enslav... I mean, employed... by the mouse as a security officer, understand that even if you get away with, the ashes will not stay there. If they're discovered later, they're swept up, given to the county, and thrown into their mass ash dump grave. We were taught how to spot the ashes, which can be pretty distinctive. Even if thrown into bushes, the dirt of the planter is excavated and is disposed of as a biohazard (I know, I know). Plus, they clean the rides thoroughly, on a pretty regular basis. So... yeah. Aunt Janet is not still at the bottom of the Pirates of the Caribbean. She's is likely in some non-Magical random hole way off site someplace in Orange County. Edit: Here's a story that kind of explains what I mean by "mass ash dump grave". laist.com/2015/11/13/unclaimed_remains_2012.php
@@sophiatalksmusic3588 It looks like course sand or fine kitty litter. At least, it did the few times when I found it. Regardless, it's one of those "something looks off" moments when you see a pile of white or gray sand in a planter of soil or on concrete.
I once stood up in the people mover, and they said over the microphone, “little girl with the pirate hat, please sit down before we stop the ride”. I was so embarrassed 😂. (Disneyworld, Orlando, Florida)
As a former cast member I totally NO NOT recommend leaving ashes on ANY attraction. You may think it’s easy and unnoticeable but cast members do catch people doing it and it creates so many problems.
There has also been a story about two brothers in 1973 one 18 year old and his 10 year old little brother, decided to stay in the park past closing on Tom Sawyer island. When they decided to leave, they swam across the Rivers of America to avoid getting caught. The older brother swam with his little brother on his back, but grew exhausted and had drowned, leaving his little brother to doggy paddle to safety. The body of the 18 year old wasn't found until a day later.
I worked at Disneyland for a year while I was in high school in 1997 and during that time a guest was killed when a part of the Columbia ship came unfastened and crushed the guest that was standing beneath it. The ride was shut down immediately and it was closed for several days. The following day after the incident all employees were instructed not to comment to anyone who asked about it fearing the press would be dressed as tourists trying to get information. It was a huge fiasco to the park but it felt like no one was considering the family of the victim.
Winds of March Journey/Perry tribute band of it affects business then they do! I guess if the press spreads word of a death, people won’t want to go to the park and then their business suffers... though it’s Disneyland so maybe it wouldn’t suffer too much ...
If people don't go to the park because of blown out of proportion media accounts and the park closes down then all those people who are complaining of inadequate pay (and also apparently are held hostage working there instead of finding better job) now don't have inadequate pay, they have no pay. Disneyland has big shoes to fill when maintaining a place dreams are made of. Yes its about the company making money, that's what companies are supposed to do. I'm sure if injuries were from park negligence they were held accountable.
As a kid in the 60's, I remember overhearing a conversation my aunt had with my parents. (she had just come back from a trip to Disney) She described a scene where a body was removed from the water on one of the rides. Apparently, 3 men scooped the body out of waist deep water and hauled it through a disguised maintenance door. The speculation was that it was then carried through the maintenance tunnel to be removed to a medical facility. The ride continued on without a hitch. I remember her saying it made her feel like she was watching some secret police force in action. Left quite an impression on me as a child.
Okay, I can already tell this is going to be a great video as always-BUT that Audible sponsorship announcement got me so emotional, I'm like- 😭 Anyway, congratulations, Caitlin! This channel is finally getting the recognition it deserves!!! 🖤
@@birdrustler Best to check the small print, it's not free. I somehow got subscribed to it and only realised when it came up on my account. I was being charged £7.99pm for it! Luckily I realised and Amazon cancelled and reimbursed me. 🙂
Do people realize that scattering their loved one’s cremated remains into Pirates of the Caribbean or It’s a Small World is just basically flushing them down a glorified drain? No? Just me? Ok. 🤣
I just realized.... No wonder it always stunk of chlorine on all the water rides!! I can imagine how nasty the water would get if people dumped frickin ashes in there, yuch!!!!
I mean, most water pipes drain into the ocean at some point, it's the biggest drain in the world and people still get their ashes scattered into the sea.
(Never thought I'd get to say this... ) Congratulations to my favorite Mortician on your sponsor! On a funny note, my husband thinks its creepy that I have a favorite mortician..... muhahahaha
It's shocking that such a charity even needs to exist. Hospice care in the UK is free for ALL terminally ill people no matter their background. Most Europeans don't understand why Americans aren't rioting in the streets for affordable or even free healthcare for everyone.
@Bigfoot well said. Such a complicated issue. Another thing is that many Americans seem to view health care as a privilege instead of a RIGHT. Like "you want healthcare? Then get a job, you lazy entitled millennial! Health care doesn't grow on trees!" Blah blah blah I think it's a matter of changing how people view health care in the US. It needs to be seen as a human right and treated as such. It's not a luxury and it isn't optional. Everyone will need some form of health care at some point. People shouldn't be dying in such a wealthy country bc they can't afford their insulin or they put off going to the doctor for too long for fear of the cost. It's totally ass backwards over here!
@Bigfoot yes you're totally right. Or you can be stuck working 2 part time jobs with more than full time total hours but no health care bc you're a part time worker. or some companies will even intentionally schedule workers for JUST under whatever the min. limit for full time work would be (like 30-35 hours even for some places) and then you would also not get healthcare bc you aren't "technically" full time. It's complete BS. Our healthcare system would be a literal joke if the state of it wasn't also killing people 😡
"HEPA cleanup" ... but don't tell them about the Code S... that one got me (I've also heard "white powder alert used" for scattered remains, but I think that is outdated? Can a CM confirm?)
I don't know if you've ever gotten this compliment, but I absolutely LOVE how deep your voice is! I have a voice on the deeper end of the spectrum & it's just great to hear other women who have deeper voices too.
Yes, indeed. For some time I felt ashamed of my "man's voice". Now I listen to Heart's cover of Starway to Heaven and I feel great knowing how much powerful a deep female voice can be.
Thanks. Now I have the morbid thought of poor Aunt Jenny spending the rest of eternity as a ghost, forever trapped in that ride, listening to "It's a small world after all" on repeat for the rest of time... what did poor Aunt Jenny do to deserve that?
Hello Spookay, In California, the County takes charge of unknown and unclaimed bodies. They are cremated because it is the cheapest. And each of our 58 counties either has a building for storing these cremains, or a special place to bury the urns. It is always done respectfully, but not with a service or anything in the way of extras. But I don't know how other states do it.
It's not dark on any ride at any time. Their are inferred lights EVERYWHERE at Disney it might look dark to us but to a camera it's like broad daylight. They also have motion sensors that will detect anything thrown off the ride into the water! If you throw something they will review the footage and if it looks like something that could be remains they will detain you until they find out what it was. If you think getting into Disney world is expensive wait until you get the bill for the team of people in hazmat suits who spent hours and hours cleaning up the ride. If you don't pay have fun with a lawsuit from one of the most powerful companies in the world! also you're going to jail and it could end up being a felony after all is said and done.
That sounds ridiculous. Having people employed to review every single movement on every ride, in addition to other employees in charge of detaining suspicious guests and on top of that lawyers to file the lawsuits is WAY MORE expensive than just cleaning the ashes along with the dust and garbage.
We my mom owns a quilt shop, we actually had someone scatter his wifes ashes in the store last summer. Like on the floor right under a shelf full of bolts of fabric!
@@karlijns4816 right! One of the employees found it while sweeping so it could have easily just ended up in the trash but i think they ended up moving them outside to the garden.
I just lost my grandfather and had I not watched your videos, I think I'd have had a much harder time dealing with it. Thank you for the comfort and change of mindset you give so many.
So im the type of person that when you tell me that you shouldn't do something, my mind immediately goes to "how could I hypothetically get away with it?". Here's how I would go about scattering Grandma at Disney. The average volume of human ashes is about .85 gallons. This will take a few trips, but the first step is getting Gran through security by smuggling whatever amount I can in a suntan lotion bottle. Then, faking a knee injury, I would bring one of those cheap steel canes you buy from the drugstore into the park with me, fill it up in the restroom with the ashes using a funnel, and then pre-drill tiny holes in the rubber bottom and then put a small piece of tape over it. When I'm ready, just take the tape of the bottom and spend the day walking around and emptying grandma over the park like a salt shaker.
Heyy, you're like me! People have been concerned that I'm planning a murder, nice to know that my curiosity-fueled craziness is shared by SOMEONE out there.
Frankly, I think Caitlin would look better dressed in black (Malificent) or a drag queen in furs, aka Cruella De Vil. She might as well tap into that crossover audience the drag queen parody created for her! Dressing as Morticia or Wednesday would seem too normal for Caitlin... Doesn't she do a variation on those two already?
So happy that a company is finally seeing the value in sponsoring death education and conversation! I'm so excited for you Caitlin! And thank you Audible!
Oh man, the last part really hit me... working at Disney was some of the most fun I ever had and the people were great friends! The pay was fine on paper but with how inconsistent the hours were, where some weeks you work over 40 hours and some you get 9, sometimes you work at dawn and sometimes you work into the night, it just wasn't sustainable and I had to leave. Thankfully I now have a job where I can afford an AP pretty easily, but I remember co-workers who really felt like they couldn't leave for some reason or another and it was usually that sense of loyalty to the company. That being said, it's a good summer job for young adults who maybe need experience and have more open schedules, just really think twice about staying long term.
I went to Disney as a very young child in the late 60's I think when it first opened. My mom loved the "It's A Small World" ride so much that she bought a record with that song on it from Disneyland. If she wasn't Catholic and wanting to be buried in the cemetery along side other family members I think she would have loved to be there for the rest of time. I of course would never try doing that but I think if I did my mom would approve.
I'm surprised she didn't touch on Debbie Stone, the staff member who was killed by the America Sings ride due to a design flaw in the ride where the hostess could get crushed between the rotating walls. When I think abt Disney and death, that story is what comes to mind first
Sadly, in 2010, at Disneyland Paris, a cleaner drowned on the It's a Small World ride, after it was accidently turned on while they were in the ride, causing them get stuck underwater.
Sounds suspicious. I wonder why he couldn't just get out of the way since it's so shallow. But I suppose he got caught off guard and sucked under. Damn, that's really sad. 😞
I stuck around all the way to the "Disney's Head" bump out, those are my favorite little touches to the videos, lol. (And I may or may not have been caught by friends absently singing "Bentham's Head" to myself while browsing grocery store aisles.)
I think its sad that those catacombs never became. Imagine how cool it would be to have an actual burial site somewhere around the parks, and then have small memorials in the catacombs. Just like a little plaque or something. Would have been neat.
When I was on the college program at WDW in the mid 80's, in one of the seminars, it was brought up about the safety record. I asked the the question to bring it one step further has anyone died at the property and the answer given was if someone is injured/hurt/needs assistance, they are brought to the hospital and declared dead there. WDWCP Spring 86.
They are so afraid of death that they deny visitors death memoriam merch. I was buying my very first pair of ears when a sad couple were arguing with a cast member in the mad hatter store about them refusing to make their deceased baby an embroidered Mickey hat with his birthday and date of death on it. They were in tears begging for them to just make the damn hat and no one would do it. So heartbreaking.
Wtf? That's just cruel! And makes no sense? You get something personalised, you have what you want on it! That's so spiteful! What an awful emotional letdown that must have been for them, especially in their mourning. Disney wants you to take your kids there, but don't fucking mention any who died ok! Nasty! 😠😠😠
I literally just posted a comment with a mini-essay about the America Sings incident omg!! I was surprised she didn't mention it too!! It's such an iconic Disney death!!
That's not the only one she missed. There was a kid who drowned in rivers of America, one crushed to death on Big Thunder, and most recently a toddler killed by alligator
If you wanna leave a loved ones ashes at Disney don’t scatter them. They’re just gonna get swept up. Put a small portion in a small jar, like a 2 to 5ml and bury it in a small hole while inline at the ride. Particularly the haunted mansion at Disneyworld. In line there is a wall connected to a hill where the ground is waist level. You won’t have to crouch down and bring attention. Just dig a small hole with your finger and bury the small jar of ashes. Clean and hidden without bringing attention to yourself. Just make sure the jar is small, you don’t have to scatter all of their ashes. A small bit is just as good. Plus it’s not technically illegal since you’re not scattering ashes and it’s contained.
Having one’s ashes scattered in the ride it’s a small world would be absolute hell having to listen to that saccharine sweet song all day long, truly hell.
Wait! That could be an excellent solution. Disney should create designated ash-holes (discreetly shielded from the crowds by a lovely, tall planting) where visitors could safely and legally deposit the cremains they already know are going to be left at the park anyway. Like their trash system, it could empty into an underground receptacle, and periodically Disney could add the material to the concrete they use. Win-win for everyone!
Im so glad i found your channel when i did. Ive had so many people i know die and ive grown a healthy mind space around the concept of death out of necessity so it's lovely to hear someone speak about it the way you do.
Having my ashes scattered in "It's a small world" sounds like hell to me X_X ! Hello from France where several heart attacks happened in some rides of the French version of the Park !
There is one memorial to a deceased person that I know of at Disney World. There is a lighthouse statue honoring Lane Graves, the boy who was killed by an alligator in 2016, at the Grand Floridian Resort.
When I worked at Disney as a front desk clerk, my last job of the night (yeah I worked nights) was to go to rooms of guests who had not responded to their wake up calls and so a "wellneaa" check on them. When I asked why we did this every morning, i was told we were looking for dead bodies. Apparently it was common for elderly people to actually die in their rooms in their sleep. I would have been freaked out had I not workes in the hospitality industry for many years before hand (always as a night clerk) and yes I had guesta die during their stay. My real question was, why wasn't this housekeeping job to find dead bodies? Why was it the front desk?
As a Disney historian/aficionado and sometimes-Disney Cast Member, I'm really impressed with the level of accuracy this series has achieved. There are SO many Disney rumors floating around, and you took the time to fact check everything. I really appreciate that, because it means I don't have to be _that person_ in the comment section. Disney fans take their passion very seriously, and you were very brave to take on such a topic, and you did such a good job with it. Well done!
I volunteer at the Tyne Theatre and Opera House and we have the ashes of a few people in the under stage area, some of the remains were scattered there and others are in niches in the walls of the under stage area. The theatre itself was also built on the site of a medieval cemetery, strangely the area where the ashes are in the theatre was exactly where the medieval cemetery was. The ashes are of people who had long association with the theatre
I often wondered why Disneyland doesn't just have a vault in the haunted Mansion cemetery for people to dump ashes in. Though people would need to understand that when that vault is full, it's contents will be transported to a local cemetery's communal vault and that will ultimately be their relatives final resting place.
I remember in the mid 1960s a young adult tried sneaking into the Disneyland park in Anaheim via the Monorail. The Monorail came along and killed the young man. He was pronounced dead on the rail.
Girl I’ve been watching u for around 2 years and your videos always inspire me 🥺 Im going to university for funerary archaeology and human osteology and it’s so amazing to see successful women in the field!! Your videos make me smile and you radiate joy. Keep doing what you’re doing!!! It makes so many people fear the unknown a little less, and makes so many people happy. All love ♥️
Then every time you go and haunt them, your ghostly presence would be accompanied with a distorted creepy version of the "It's A Small World" song. Imagine them just sitting in their house, chilling. Then suddenly they hear the distorted song faintly being heard, then growing louder and louder. Then the next moment you appear right in front of them and scream, "Get my ashes out of there now!" That would make 1 heck of a horror movie XD
"It's a small world after all..." Me: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MAKE IT STOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOP!!! Why yes, I'm a former Disney cast member. What was your first clue???
You know how you can buy blank Cards Against Humanity cards that you can write questions or answers on? Well, I wrote a white card (which is the answer card) for my friend's deck that says "15 excruciating minutes on It's A Small World" xDD That's one of my favorite ones I've written!!
Our High School class boycotted "Grad Night" at Disney after a young man from our school bled to death after being stabbed, reportedly as a result of the Disney staff sacrificing expedient care for for the sake of keeping it the happiest place on earth. RIP Mel.
Thank you so much for talking about the wage issues, it truly means a lot. The more awareness people have about the issue the better chance we might have of being able to support ourselves and our families
back in the 70's my family was trapped in 'it's a small world' in florida for 3 hours. The boats would stop, then move a little, then stop again. they didn't want to evacuate the ride because they kept thinking they had it fixed. We all got a booklet of E tickets in compensation-back when that meant something- but it was and is still a horrible memory.
I used to work at Bok tower gardens. The offical policy was to not allow the spreading of a loves ones ashes. But off the record, employees were told if you see a family doing so in a non public way in quiet garden with no one around, just to look the other way.
The INN between. I didn't think I could fall in love with you, this channel, and what you do even more than I already do, you proved me wrong. Thank you.
I don't want my ashes scattered anywhere where a worker has to clean them up. They don't get paid enough to clean up my cremains

Would it be possible to do a video on the corpses of Chernobyl (firemen, reactor operators)? I'm curious if they were preserved in any way

@@folbykleetwood7462 lots and lots of concrete...
They were affected by so much radiation their innards liquified, it's kinda just a human shaped sack of fluids, not much body left to preserve. Also that's a MAJOR exposure risk, keeping those bodies around for such a prolonged period of time. And then there's the burial, they were concealed under concrete so as to prevent the radiation from spreading. That would be extremely difficult to excavate, I imagine.
@@maevocado1246 I knew about the burial, but the liquification is news to me
As someone that used to be enslav... I mean, employed... by the mouse as a security officer, understand that even if you get away with, the ashes will not stay there. If they're discovered later, they're swept up, given to the county, and thrown into their mass ash dump grave. We were taught how to spot the ashes, which can be pretty distinctive. Even if thrown into bushes, the dirt of the planter is excavated and is disposed of as a biohazard (I know, I know). Plus, they clean the rides thoroughly, on a pretty regular basis. So... yeah. Aunt Janet is not still at the bottom of the Pirates of the Caribbean. She's is likely in some non-Magical random hole way off site someplace in Orange County.
Edit: Here's a story that kind of explains what I mean by "mass ash dump grave". laist.com/2015/11/13/unclaimed_remains_2012.php
How do you identify the ashes?? I go to the parks a lot and would just like to know.
@@sophiatalksmusic3588 It looks like course sand or fine kitty litter. At least, it did the few times when I found it. Regardless, it's one of those "something looks off" moments when you see a pile of white or gray sand in a planter of soil or on concrete.

Joëlle Agreeeee *so* much!
I once stood up in the people mover, and they said over the microphone, “little girl with the pirate hat, please sit down before we stop the ride”. I was so embarrassed 😂. (Disneyworld, Orlando, Florida)
As a former cast member I totally NO NOT recommend leaving ashes on ANY attraction. You may think it’s easy and unnoticeable but cast members do catch people doing it and it creates so many problems.
Like what kind of problems specifically? Always been curious about this!
The obvious solution is to avoid cremation and have their body processed into hot dogs, then walk around leaving hot dogs all over the area
Sheepdog Wrangler delicious people hotdogs
Julie Walker I feel the same way about my dead aunt
I'm also curious about problems? I'd never do that but curiosity
😂😂 Caitlyn's extremely confused reaction to being sponsored literally made my day!

There has also been a story about two brothers in 1973 one 18 year old and his 10 year old little brother, decided to stay in the park past closing on Tom Sawyer island. When they decided to leave, they swam across the Rivers of America to avoid getting caught. The older brother swam with his little brother on his back, but grew exhausted and had drowned, leaving his little brother to doggy paddle to safety. The body of the 18 year old wasn't found until a day later.
His name was Ogden. That's my friend's cousin.

I worked at Disneyland for a year while I was in high school in 1997 and during that time a guest was killed when a part of the Columbia ship came unfastened and crushed the guest that was standing beneath it. The ride was shut down immediately and it was closed for several days. The following day after the incident all employees were instructed not to comment to anyone who asked about it fearing the press would be dressed as tourists trying to get information. It was a huge fiasco to the park but it felt like no one was considering the family of the victim.
That is really sad and morbid.🤮🤮
Why would they care? They want $$$. Don't ever be deluded otherwise.
Winds of March Journey/Perry tribute band of it affects business then they do! I guess if the press spreads word of a death, people won’t want to go to the park and then their business suffers... though it’s Disneyland so maybe it wouldn’t suffer too much ...
It’s about the mighty dollar, pure evil owns that company.
If people don't go to the park because of blown out of proportion media accounts and the park closes down then all those people who are complaining of inadequate pay (and also apparently are held hostage working there instead of finding better job) now don't have inadequate pay, they have no pay. Disneyland has big shoes to fill when maintaining a place dreams are made of. Yes its about the company making money, that's what companies are supposed to do. I'm sure if injuries were from park negligence they were held accountable.
As a kid in the 60's, I remember overhearing a conversation my aunt had with my parents. (she had just come back from a trip to Disney) She described a scene where a body was removed from the water on one of the rides. Apparently, 3 men scooped the body out of waist deep water and hauled it through a disguised maintenance door. The speculation was that it was then carried through the maintenance tunnel to be removed to a medical facility. The ride continued on without a hitch. I remember her saying it made her feel like she was watching some secret police force in action. Left quite an impression on me as a child.
Graceland is like that, too.
Yikes
Okay, I can already tell this is going to be a great video as always-BUT that Audible sponsorship announcement got me so emotional, I'm like- 😭
Anyway, congratulations, Caitlin! This channel is finally getting the recognition it deserves!!! 🖤
I love how her first sponsorship has free stuff that I actually want.
Yes! I feel like a proud mumma 😭😭
@@birdrustler Best to check the small print, it's not free. I somehow got subscribed to it and only realised when it came up on my account. I was being charged £7.99pm for it! Luckily I realised and Amazon cancelled and reimbursed me. 🙂

That was in a movie once. Hilarious. I'd find that hysterical if I were dead.

@@windsofmarchjourneyperrytr2823 i thought of the big lebowski, lol
Do people realize that scattering their loved one’s cremated remains into Pirates of the Caribbean or It’s a Small World is just basically flushing them down a glorified drain? No? Just me? Ok. 🤣
I just realized.... No wonder it always stunk of chlorine on all the water rides!! I can imagine how nasty the water would get if people dumped frickin ashes in there, yuch!!!!
That's exactly what I've thought for years.
I mean, most water pipes drain into the ocean at some point, it's the biggest drain in the world and people still get their ashes scattered into the sea.

I’m confused- Disney park wants no death references (ie “In Memory of...” but has a “Momento Mori” gift shop selling death soeveniers?
Exactly what I was thinking. *shrugs*
They make lots of money on that part!
Momento Mori is relatively new addition to the parks
"Momento Mori" is over the top aesthetic. "In memory of" is real.
Memento Mori is about whimsical, fictional, Halloween-y death. It's not *real* death
A hospice for the homeless I’m crying my eyes out now. That is something until you said never thought existed but much needed. 🙌🏼
Just like an organization to care for the pets of people who have died. Two very compassionate, worthy selections.
It's shocking that such a charity even needs to exist. Hospice care in the UK is free for ALL terminally ill people no matter their background. Most Europeans don't understand why Americans aren't rioting in the streets for affordable or even free healthcare for everyone.
@Bigfoot well said. Such a complicated issue. Another thing is that many Americans seem to view health care as a privilege instead of a RIGHT. Like "you want healthcare? Then get a job, you lazy entitled millennial! Health care doesn't grow on trees!" Blah blah blah
I think it's a matter of changing how people view health care in the US. It needs to be seen as a human right and treated as such. It's not a luxury and it isn't optional. Everyone will need some form of health care at some point. People shouldn't be dying in such a wealthy country bc they can't afford their insulin or they put off going to the doctor for too long for fear of the cost. It's totally ass backwards over here!
@Bigfoot yes you're totally right. Or you can be stuck working 2 part time jobs with more than full time total hours but no health care bc you're a part time worker. or some companies will even intentionally schedule workers for JUST under whatever the min. limit for full time work would be (like 30-35 hours even for some places) and then you would also not get healthcare bc you aren't "technically" full time.
It's complete BS. Our healthcare system would be a literal joke if the state of it wasn't also killing people 😡
@@heathercameron1485 People only riot over big very unpopular changes. Not things they've only ever known.

Video idea: what happens to dead ppl that don’t have family or friends and aren’t claimed
Hello Spookay,
In California, the County takes charge of unknown and unclaimed bodies. They are cremated because it is the cheapest. And each of our 58 counties either has a building for storing these cremains, or a special place to bury the urns. It is always done respectfully, but not with a service or anything in the way of extras. But I don't know how other states do it.
There's a documentary for that if you can stomach it: A Different Kind of Death. You can find it on TH-cam, and don't say I didn't warn you...
Michael Dougfir Same in Ohio. At least the County I live in that’s what they do.
Moebym I’ve seen that! I’m surprised at the things they’ve shown or the conditions of the body’s!!

It's not dark on any ride at any time. Their are inferred lights EVERYWHERE at Disney it might look dark to us but to a camera it's like broad daylight. They also have motion sensors that will detect anything thrown off the ride into the water! If you throw something they will review the footage and if it looks like something that could be remains they will detain you until they find out what it was. If you think getting into Disney world is expensive wait until you get the bill for the team of people in hazmat suits who spent hours and hours cleaning up the ride. If you don't pay have fun with a lawsuit from one of the most powerful companies in the world! also you're going to jail and it could end up being a felony after all is said and done.
You typed all this and it’s a lie
Yeah, you think you see how it's possible
Inferred.
If this is the case, then they could also watch you and your significant other get it on during a dark ride-
That sounds ridiculous. Having people employed to review every single movement on every ride, in addition to other employees in charge of detaining suspicious guests and on top of that lawyers to file the lawsuits is WAY MORE expensive than just cleaning the ashes along with the dust and garbage.
We my mom owns a quilt shop, we actually had someone scatter his wifes ashes in the store last summer. Like on the floor right under a shelf full of bolts of fabric!
Oh gosh.
That must have been awkward to clean up. Can't exactly dump it in the trash.
@@karlijns4816 right! One of the employees found it while sweeping so it could have easily just ended up in the trash but i think they ended up moving them outside to the garden.

I just lost my grandfather and had I not watched your videos, I think I'd have had a much harder time dealing with it. Thank you for the comfort and change of mindset you give so many.
So im the type of person that when you tell me that you shouldn't do something, my mind immediately goes to "how could I hypothetically get away with it?". Here's how I would go about scattering Grandma at Disney. The average volume of human ashes is about .85 gallons. This will take a few trips, but the first step is getting Gran through security by smuggling whatever amount I can in a suntan lotion bottle. Then, faking a knee injury, I would bring one of those cheap steel canes you buy from the drugstore into the park with me, fill it up in the restroom with the ashes using a funnel, and then pre-drill tiny holes in the rubber bottom and then put a small piece of tape over it. When I'm ready, just take the tape of the bottom and spend the day walking around and emptying grandma over the park like a salt shaker.
I read this comment three hours ago and can’t stop thinking about it
I-
This is brilliant.
Heyy, you're like me! People have been concerned that I'm planning a murder, nice to know that my curiosity-fueled craziness is shared by SOMEONE out there.

Can we get a sticker of Caitlin as TinkerBell? Because I'm here for it.
Lmaoooo
Lmao for real that was my favorite part of the video haha
It would be great, but Disney would probably sue for copyright infringement and anything else they can think of before lunch.
Frankly,
I think Caitlin would look better dressed in black (Malificent) or a drag queen in furs, aka Cruella De Vil. She might as well tap into that crossover audience the drag queen parody created for her!
Dressing as Morticia or Wednesday would seem too normal for Caitlin... Doesn't she do a variation on those two already?
So happy that a company is finally seeing the value in sponsoring death education and conversation! I'm so excited for you Caitlin! And thank you Audible!
Oh man, the last part really hit me... working at Disney was some of the most fun I ever had and the people were great friends! The pay was fine on paper but with how inconsistent the hours were, where some weeks you work over 40 hours and some you get 9, sometimes you work at dawn and sometimes you work into the night, it just wasn't sustainable and I had to leave. Thankfully I now have a job where I can afford an AP pretty easily, but I remember co-workers who really felt like they couldn't leave for some reason or another and it was usually that sense of loyalty to the company. That being said, it's a good summer job for young adults who maybe need experience and have more open schedules, just really think twice about staying long term.
Leaving someone’s remains to be stuck in the “It’s A Small World” ride falls under the heading of “🔥Being stuck in eternal torment 🔥,” if you ask me.
seems cruel and unusual, honestly
I went to Disney as a very young child in the late 60's I think when it first opened. My mom loved the "It's A Small World" ride so much that she bought a record with that song on it from Disneyland. If she wasn't Catholic and wanting to be buried in the cemetery along side other family members I think she would have loved to be there for the rest of time. I of course would never try doing that but I think if I did my mom would approve.
I'm surprised she didn't touch on Debbie Stone, the staff member who was killed by the America Sings ride due to a design flaw in the ride where the hostess could get crushed between the rotating walls. When I think abt Disney and death, that story is what comes to mind first
Sadly, in 2010, at Disneyland Paris, a cleaner drowned on the It's a Small World ride, after it was accidently turned on while they were in the ride, causing them get stuck underwater.
Sounds suspicious. I wonder why he couldn't just get out of the way since it's so shallow. But I suppose he got caught off guard and sucked under. Damn, that's really sad. 😞
I stuck around all the way to the "Disney's Head" bump out, those are my favorite little touches to the videos, lol. (And I may or may not have been caught by friends absently singing "Bentham's Head" to myself while browsing grocery store aisles.)
Sara Pekel I sometimes sing Bentham’s head to myself while brushing my teeth 😂

When I was on the college program at WDW in the mid 80's, in one of the seminars, it was brought up about the safety record. I asked the the question to bring it one step further has anyone died at the property and the answer given was if someone is injured/hurt/needs assistance, they are brought to the hospital and declared dead there. WDWCP Spring 86.
‘He died because he was jumping car to car’
Me: some people are idiots
They are so afraid of death that they deny visitors death memoriam merch.
I was buying my very first pair of ears when a sad couple were arguing with a cast member in the mad hatter store about them refusing to make their deceased baby an embroidered Mickey hat with his birthday and date of death on it.
They were in tears begging for them to just make the damn hat and no one would do it.
So heartbreaking.
Wtf? That's just cruel! And makes no sense? You get something personalised, you have what you want on it! That's so spiteful! What an awful emotional letdown that must have been for them, especially in their mourning. Disney wants you to take your kids there, but don't fucking mention any who died ok! Nasty! 😠😠😠
Just curious, was this in Disneyland or Walt Disney World?
How would they even know unless someone told them?
Try Etsy.
When I mentioned Walt story of him being frozen to a friend, he said " Oh, Disney on ice.." LOL
“Disney’s Frozen”
I'm amazed this video is 13 min long and you never mentioned America Sings
I literally just posted a comment with a mini-essay about the America Sings incident omg!! I was surprised she didn't mention it too!! It's such an iconic Disney death!!
That's not the only one she missed. There was a kid who drowned in rivers of America, one crushed to death on Big Thunder, and most recently a toddler killed by alligator
Its like the most famous and gruesome death at DL.
She mention those in the first Part of the series.
This by far my favourite mini series you’ve made so far. Keep up the good work!
Tea Sis i guess you could say......”minnie” series
I will never, EVER get over how horrifying the "It's a Small World" ride is for me. Every time I go on that ride I block my ears.
If you wanna leave a loved ones ashes at Disney don’t scatter them. They’re just gonna get swept up. Put a small portion in a small jar, like a 2 to 5ml and bury it in a small hole while inline at the ride. Particularly the haunted mansion at Disneyworld. In line there is a wall connected to a hill where the ground is waist level. You won’t have to crouch down and bring attention. Just dig a small hole with your finger and bury the small jar of ashes. Clean and hidden without bringing attention to yourself.
Just make sure the jar is small, you don’t have to scatter all of their ashes. A small bit is just as good.
Plus it’s not technically illegal since you’re not scattering ashes and it’s contained.
The gardeners/landscapers will find it eventually, though.
Wouldn't that be sort of like waiting in line for eternity?
But why
“We don’t have to make a 3 part series about disney and also death.”
*makes a 3 part series about death and disney*
Love that lol
Having one’s ashes scattered in the ride it’s a small world would be absolute hell having to listen to that saccharine sweet song all day long, truly hell.
"There are no ash police." You mean ash-holes?
Wait! That could be an excellent solution. Disney should create designated ash-holes (discreetly shielded from the crowds by a lovely, tall planting) where visitors could safely and legally deposit the cremains they already know are going to be left at the park anyway. Like their trash system, it could empty into an underground receptacle, and periodically Disney could add the material to the concrete they use. Win-win for everyone!
That's bullshirt!
Was that a Prepare to Try reference?
HAAAAA!!! 😸
Having driven big rigs in California decades ago I can assure you there used to be ash police.
"If only obtaining a real death certificate was actually that easy and fun." made me laugh so hard, my mom just died and its been such a hassle!
I‘m very sorry for your loss. It’s nice to see that you can still make jokes about it.
Im so glad i found your channel when i did. Ive had so many people i know die and ive grown a healthy mind space around the concept of death out of necessity so it's lovely to hear someone speak about it the way you do.
i've recently found your channel and honestly im obsessed with you. i find your videos oddly comforting
Lea Tucker - Welcome, new deathling!

When I worked at Disney as a front desk clerk, my last job of the night (yeah I worked nights) was to go to rooms of guests who had not responded to their wake up calls and so a "wellneaa" check on them. When I asked why we did this every morning, i was told we were looking for dead bodies. Apparently it was common for elderly people to actually die in their rooms in their sleep. I would have been freaked out had I not workes in the hospitality industry for many years before hand (always as a night clerk) and yes I had guesta die during their stay. My real question was, why wasn't this housekeeping job to find dead bodies? Why was it the front desk?
As a Disney historian/aficionado and sometimes-Disney Cast Member, I'm really impressed with the level of accuracy this series has achieved. There are SO many Disney rumors floating around, and you took the time to fact check everything. I really appreciate that, because it means I don't have to be _that person_ in the comment section. Disney fans take their passion very seriously, and you were very brave to take on such a topic, and you did such a good job with it. Well done!
Take an uno reverse card with you to Disneyland so when death comes at you, you can say no you
I volunteer at the Tyne Theatre and Opera House and we have the ashes of a few people in the under stage area, some of the remains were scattered there and others are in niches in the walls of the under stage area. The theatre itself was also built on the site of a medieval cemetery, strangely the area where the ashes are in the theatre was exactly where the medieval cemetery was.
The ashes are of people who had long association with the theatre
I often wondered why Disneyland doesn't just have a vault in the haunted Mansion cemetery for people to dump ashes in. Though people would need to understand that when that vault is full, it's contents will be transported to a local cemetery's communal vault and that will ultimately be their relatives final resting place.
Congratulations on the sponsorship! I Love this series! I do not want it to end.
Park guest: Starts to die.

That kid that got eaten by an alligator certainly died in the park
If someone scattered my ashes at the "It's a Small World" ride, I'd haunt 'em into eternity.
Not that I'm vengeful or anything...
Then every time you go and haunt them, your ghostly presence would be accompanied with a distorted creepy version of the "It's A Small World" song. Imagine them just sitting in their house, chilling. Then suddenly they hear the distorted song faintly being heard, then growing louder and louder. Then the next moment you appear right in front of them and scream, "Get my ashes out of there now!" That would make 1 heck of a horror movie XD

back in the 70's my family was trapped in 'it's a small world' in florida for 3 hours. The boats would stop, then move a little, then stop again. they didn't want to evacuate the ride because they kept thinking they had it fixed. We all got a booklet of E tickets in compensation-back when that meant something- but it was and is still a horrible memory.
A coworker was stuck on the ride with his grandchildren. Hated that song ever since . . .
The hospice for homeless is a beautiful thing
Great channel! So glad you are getting noticed beyond social media!
I used to work at Bok tower gardens. The offical policy was to not allow the spreading of a loves ones ashes. But off the record, employees were told if you see a family doing so in a non public way in quiet garden with no one around, just to look the other way.
The INN between. I didn't think I could fall in love with you, this channel, and what you do even more than I already do, you proved me wrong. Thank you.
