Former attractions cm here. When figures shake like that, it usually means too much air has entered the hydrologic fluid lines. For pneumatic figures (like Jungle Cruise or Thunder Mountain), they just make an air popping sound and won't move at all when they malfunction
I believe that the dragon going up in flames definitely must be Mickey's ultimate win. I mean, talk about how powerful the iconic mouse is. Mickey might be small, but he's mighty!
Wow, I never realized just how bad the Fantasmic fire actually was, especially that large explosion and pillar of fire that shot toward the ground. Glad that one cast member on the ground had walked away by the time that happened, that could've been horrific.
Yeah that's actually pretty scary and I was a little concerned when it seemed like everybody was still seated. Can't even believe that one cast member went out there with all that hydraulic fluid spraying everywhere.
@@gkdair1413 I think the audience was protected by the large river in between them and the dragon, but yeah, that cast member trying to keep the flames off the floor sure was lucky….
It's kinda sad to hear the dragon won't come back. That animatronic looked so impressive! Still gotta admit tho that something about watching it just absolutly bursting into flames and dripping with fire was kinda cool. I mean it even appeared to still be spitting flames while being a ginormous bonfire by itself already! It's sad to know he's gone but man was it one hell of a way to go. Rest in peace Murphy
I find it ironic that they named it "Murphy" in the first place because of all the problems experienced with it in the first place. Talk about going out in a blaze of glory!
@QueenofMochi Gettin' toasty with that, aren't ya'? Well, I got A story to tell. Sadly I didn't record it but, I remember it from the back of my mind. It was around March 2023 during Spring Break (TAKE THAT HIGHSCHOOL!) and me,my family, and friends went to Hollywood Studios. I forgot the name of the ride but it was (Cool word here Mania and it way toystory-themed. I went on the same cart with my bestie and when we got to the 3rd theme. The screen blacked out completely. She was like "What the f**k, HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO GET MY GODDAMN POINTS?! IM SO CLOSE BEATING TODAY'S HIGHSCORE! (That day's highscore was about 13K, and she was at 11K, and there was A 2,000 point target) and then we had to do a in-show evacuation. They gave us free lighting-road cards which was cool. But she was mad as hell. Had to buy her chocolate n' caramel popcorn to calm her down.... But we went off with our days and those tickets save us A LOT OF TIME! Saved us 1 hour from A rollercoaster! The end, that's my story!
Me too, and I used it to study about animatronic and find theorical solution to fix problems (so for the Buz Light Years problem projector seems to be the flat cable connected to the projector, not the projectors itself)
The kids at 4:47 must have made your day :) It's great that you have a channel that kids and adults are both so stoked to send stuff in to. It means you're doing something right, you know? Cheers!
Two thoughts here. First of all, given the sheer number of "projected face" malfunctions I've seen on this site, I am delighted to learn that Disney may well be retiring this particular process or whatever you want to call it. It doesn't look that great to begin with from what I've seen, and clearly, it has more problems than it's worth. Secondly, the Fantasmic dragon fire was a true tragedy. I remember hearing about it when it happened. Such a genuine shame. I can understand why Disney doesn't want to rebuild it as it was, in case something like that happens again, but wow. Oh, one more thought -- so glad to see Sonny Eclipse is still around. Hope he gets himself together. :)
Given how perfectly the dragon fire synced up with Malificent's screaming in the show, I could imagine myself as a little kid seeing that and going "dang, Mickey is savage 😳"
I'm glad no one got hurt! Though seeing the dragon animatronic go up in flames made me really sad. Even if 14 may not seem old, for something that large to make it that long with fire seems lucky to me. Sad it had to go out that way.
Yeah it is sad but eventually a new animatronic will be made. I mean yeah the team behind the show have to make a whole new segment! But be thankful we didn't hear about any accidents or deaths!
The fact he didn’t even seem to notice at first though… also you look in other footage of the incident, he exits through a trapdoor, which is kinda scary because the fire was dripping a lot on the floor. I really want to know how the actor felt in that moment omg.
@@DinoandGalaxy Technically no but people gave it the name Murphy after Murphy’s law: anything that can go wrong will go wrong because the animatronic’s debut kept getting pushed back because it was malfunctioning so much.
The hand malfunction on Carousel of Progress reminds me of the scene in Toy Story where Woody says “Give me a hand,” and Buzz throws him his entire arm.
In my opinion they only worked on the Seven Dwarves and Runaway Railway cast. The rest of the time it doesn’t look good at all, especially on the Frozen cast.
@amyvasquez4268 that's what I mean. Some of the characters look good with this, cars for example works in my opinion. The ones you mentioned worked as well.
I feel really bad that I never got to see the Maleficent dragon in person because it looked incredible. I’m glad that no one got hurt but still it sucks that I’ll never get to see Fantasmic with it
When TPM uploads an animatronic malfunction video our day is instantly made. I actually went to Disneyland recently! No animatronics malfunctioned. But i kept a sharp eye out. If i saw one I'd immediately tell a cast member
Seeing Murphy go up in flames after 14 years brought tears to my eyes 😭😢. She was a much beloved performer in the show 💔. But I will admit that the ambiance music from New Orleans Square did bring a bit of a comedic touch to what was going on.
Sucks they’re not bringing back the dragon animatronic. But man, what a way to go out. Bursting into flames just as mickey in the show casts a spell to destroy her.
I remember when I first heard about the Murphy incident. It's terrifying for sure, but also, why didn't they think to make the head flame-proof? That just feels like common sense. Still, I guess Murphy lived up to her name: Everything that can go wrong will go wrong.
It might've been something hard to do at the time considering she was fourteen years old, or she was fire-resistant at that point in time but the material had degraded, or the material was simply no match for the flammable hydraulic fluid I'm no expert on animatronic history though, citation needed
I'm about to take an animatronics design and construction course at my makeup school in Burbank. Watching these are super interesting to see how they work and can fail.
When i saw it I wondered if you'd cover the fantasmic disaster. I just happened to be on Instagram when someone popped up livestreaming it, it was crazy to see happen in real time, I can only imagine what it would have been like in person. on one hand it was kind of cool seeing a dragon just up in flames but then you think about the damage, the amount of time that went into that, the danger it could have caused and the aftermath and it's heartbreaking
7:43 "What's so Important that's outside?" Freedom. He's been stuck in that room 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. He wants to go outside, he wants to touch grass!
Sometimes I wonder if being able to see all the back alleys and storage rooms of Disney would be more interesting than visiting the actual park. Just getting the see the old costumes and animatronics, where they get built or repaired, and how the park is run seems fascinating.
I was watching other fires that happened at Disney after the Maleficent dragon fire happened and found a similar occurrence with the same dragon but in a parade. I’m wondering whether it was the same thing that happened here since both were fire breathing Maleficent dragons that had fires in the head area but the parade version was much smaller in comparison to Fantasmic’s version.
At 5:47, if you look closely, you can see that all the animatronics in the scene are having the same motion problem. It's just harder to tell because the other ones aren't moving much.
Hey tpm! I just want to say thanks for being a huge inspiration for me. These videos were an obsession for me as a child, and thus is not led to me being fascinated with theme parks, and hopefully getting to design stuff for parks. Thanks!😊
Also the triton one fascinates me. Did it get stuck switching between frames as it went through it’s program ( in like a up 2 frames back one frame then so on?)
I really like how in the last part with the burning dragon. Mickey just bows and disappears in the smoke. Also when the water splashes up he just freezes and is like “really?”
Tbh I think they should’ve made a new dragon animatronic and instead of emitting real fire, they could have it breathe orange-illuminated mist that resembles fire without it getting destroyed a second time.
If you take a look at better footage, he goes down in a trapdoor. Must’ve been really scary seeing that the fire was reaching the ground. When the cast member playing him retires, I hope they get to tell us how they felt during the situation.
I was sad to see the Maleficent dragon go up in flames like that. That was my favorite part of Fantasmic, and now I'm sad that it won't be returning when the show comes back. Rest in Power, dragon. You will be missed. :(
The scary thing is the Maleficent dragons have this issue…. A parade one burned in 2018 too. I have a photo of that one in action and was glad I got it.
The dragon will be missed, but I'm glad the show will be reimagined. I personally couldn't stand the new soundtrack, and how they cut out the snake and Pinocchio in the show and so much more. The jack sparrow scene deserves its own stunt show hour. Great content👍🇺🇲
It’s funny because where sonny eclipse is located is right by the mad tea party (Alice in Wonderland) and the queen mostly says off with his/her/their head. Quite the coincidence.
Just want you to know that my 7 year old son, Oliver, loves your channel and whenever we encounter a slight issue on a ride he talks about how we should film it for TPMVids. Thanks for doing such a great job.
TPM, outstanding job to make TH-cam videos very entertaining. Even informative about when happened to the auto animatronics got malfunction. My props to u. 😊
I can’t recall where exactly but around when the Fantasmic fire happened I saw a video someone took from Splash Mountain that really captured how crazy the fire and smoke was
Gosh, Maleficent burning is quite sad when you think about it, but also hilarious with the backing music 😅 just glad no one got hurt from this too, even the brave employee trying to stop the fire from spreading.
That blast of flame from the dragon probably made the "brave cast member" reconsider their firefighting choices. It is fortunate they weren't standing where the stream of flame struck the ground. That would have been a horrific tragedy captured on hundreds of videos and unlikely to be something to be survived.
I remembered back in 2017, I went to Magic Kingdom and I watched The Muppets Great Moments in American History and it was going all good but at the end, the confetti was supposed to fly out but when I went, it malfunctioned and nothing happened. Even Fozzie was confused. My dad got it on video
I want a quickly say that what happened to the dragon animatronic in Disneyland Fantasmic is going to be out of commission for the rest of the year at least. What a shame
I think the fact that they couldn't stop the fire for an extended period of time is why the dragon won't be coming back. All you need is one person to get hurt and that's a huge lawsuit.
I really hope that the reimagined sequence of Mickey facing of Maleficent will be more physical and creative than using a screen or projection when Fantasmic 2.0 returns, but who knows.
3:01 (Ride breaks down) Sebastian: HUH, WHATS THIS? YOU COME TO A STOP! hmm, maybe it's that sea witch, HMPH! listen to me, stay seated in your clam shell while I get to the bottom this!
The liquid was actually the lighter fluid that was used to create the fire breathing effect. I only saw the Disneyland dragon animatronic on video. I’m really sad that it won’t return but I guess it’s back to what it was before. A projection. Who else thinks that Patricia in act four of Carousel of Progress looks like Taylor Swift?
Mickey: "I'll show 'em! I'll show 'em I can't be put down! THIS one'll put an end to that stupid dragon! Ah, haha! They'll be sorry they ever messed with the MOUSE!"
The day after the dragon incident happened it was all over TikTok and I know because that’s where I spend most of my time and there was so many clips of it from people who there there that night. I’m fascinated by the situation but also sad because that looked like such an amazing animatronic and it’s a shame it burned down like that 😢
Former attractions cm here. When figures shake like that, it usually means too much air has entered the hydrologic fluid lines. For pneumatic figures (like Jungle Cruise or Thunder Mountain), they just make an air popping sound and won't move at all when they malfunction

It’s so crazy, I was lucky enough to see Fantasmic just days before it burst into flames. That must of been so intense.

Thank you!
Late to the party, but this is the most entertaining thing to come out of Disney for a long, long time.
I clicked this when I saw this I love the animatronic breakdowns
Maleficent really said “ I’m to tired for this today”
That last one...FLAMINGGGG DEAATH!
When PT Flea has had enough of Maleficent....
Lol nice one 😂 why didn’t I think of that?

(Ride breaks down)
Sebastian: HUH, WHATS THIS? YOU COME TO A STOP!
hmm, maybe it's that sea witch, HMPH! listen to me, stay seated in your clam shell while I get to the bottom this!
The liquid was actually the lighter fluid that was used to create the fire breathing effect. I only saw the Disneyland dragon animatronic on video. I’m really sad that it won’t return but I guess it’s back to what it was before. A projection.
Who else thinks that Patricia in act four of Carousel of Progress looks like Taylor Swift?
Mickey: "I'll show 'em! I'll show 'em I can't be put down! THIS one'll put an end to that stupid dragon! Ah, haha! They'll be sorry they ever messed with the MOUSE!"
I was waiting for you to talk about #1 it was so insane to see on twitter when it happened
The day after the dragon incident happened it was all over TikTok and I know because that’s where I spend most of my time and there was so many clips of it from people who there there that night. I’m fascinated by the situation but also sad because that looked like such an amazing animatronic and it’s a shame it burned down like that 😢
