Instagram- AdamTheWooATW The show is still great but tough not to miss how much more used to be part of it . The crowd participation part is pretty cringy now
What participation is there now? I remember in 2015, and 2019 there was a few called out of the crowd to do stunts. It really bothers me that my favourite park has stopped this, as well as things like Jedi training, which my son was lucky enough to be a part of in 2019. And also taking away the citizens of Hollywood. It’s really ripped the heart and soul out the park.
Yes the crowd participation was great. Bottom line is that the Germans were the enemy ( except for that second one ) it was Indy against evil and good came out on top. Sorry but woke political correctness is killing much of Disney. :-//
Adam, my 15 yr old son and I are taking Amtrak sleeper car from KY to Anaheim in June. Then 3 days at Disneyland. Looking forward to him experiencing the Indiana Jones ride for first time. 😊 Have you ever taken a long train journey? This will be our first. 🚆👍🏼
That's kinda crazy: "Remember that iconic scene from Raiders with the swordsman? We recreate it here! Except there is no sword, and Indy doesn't shoot him..."
Fun fact about that scene. The crew and cast were so sick with food poisoning bSpielberg decided to cut three days of shooting and go with the very memorable shorter scene.
@@brianbsully173 that’s not the story I got. I think Lucas said there was supposed to be a fight scene, but because Harrison Ford was sick with the flu, he just took out the gun and shot him. They kept the scene and it’s a classic.
@@EPiche09 And how has that empowerment changed anything? It's speaking up JUST to speak up. I am sure that having no guns in this show will help prevent a lot of wars. 🙄
You mean like in 1977 when "everyone was butt hurt" that there were no black people in Star Wars and so much outcry that Lando was created in Empire Strikes Back and played a Prominent role In Return of the Jedi..... Must suck for some when people are empowered to speak up about things and make some changes especially for those "replacement theory" smooth brains...IF anything its sadder that certain things have to be removed because of the people who want to rub themselves to certain flags and images
@@thomasoldham2237it didn’t suck, it needed to have updated movie scenes added to it. By the time Disney decided to close it, Disney’s film catalog grew exponentially. We could have had Starwars, marvel, etc scenes newly represented but Disney unfortunately didn’t use their brain good enough to do so.
I remember watching this show when Full House was filmed there. I was a teenager and loved this show. I can’t see this show without DJ yelling Steve at Indy.
Adam, I too believe the original Indie show was so very much better and I miss the audience interactions that were a part of the show. Always hopeful that they will return to the original.
Yes you are right about all the changes. The version they have now is pretty pathetic. When we come down I always used to look forward to seeing this show. Ridiculous how they’ve scaled down and removed so much of the show that made it special. We rarely even go in and watch it anymore unless someone’s with us that’s never seen it. Universal rules when it comes to these types of shows.
What are you mad about getting removed? Guns were a safety issues because of the blanks (thanks Alec Baldwin), the swastika got removed for fairly obvious reasons, and the audience participation is gone because it created more problems for the actual cast and crew than it was worth.
What’s crazy is that the stunt show always showed you that no matter how deadly the stunt looked they showed you how they were not in danger at all. That was the point of the shows.
I was there in the 199os many times- once our Disney cast member told us that one of the Indy stuntmen got a broken leg by getting hit by the rubber ball. The show is really safe but accidents can happen!
100% agree with you. They took away too much, the samurai sword, come on, that should be in there! I was there in the early days for the full show. And yes after watching your video, I can see where it's been seriously watered down. 😞
Yeah it's pretty sad that the samurai sword guy has gone - I have a core memory of watching the movie as a kid with my lovely late Dad and him absolutely belly laughing when Indy shot him!
I read somewhere that Indiana Jones shooting the swordsman was an ad lib. Harrison Ford got hot and tired while filming, so he just blasted the bad guy. It worked perfectly, so they used it.
The real million dollar question is: why don’t they have Waterworld at Universal Florida?!! Of all the parks where the guests actually need a good soaking…
I know that Speilberg gets a fee for the Jurassic Park rides. If he also gets one from the Indy rides, no wonder he just bought his own superyacht ... to replace his old superyacht. What a baller !
I remember going to this when it was brand new. IJESS was closed last time we went to MGM. It is so sad to hear how they have reduced this amazing show. Seen it several times. Glad I got to see the good version.
@betsyjohnson9699 they could still just sound effect the gun noise. Hell, they have prop guns that make the sound with no projectile at all. It doesn't have to be a real gun. That's just an excuse.
@@punxsydawn they literally removed it bc the other guns were already fake and they weren’t able to replace it (for some reason) with a fake one. If it was bc they were “woke” they’d get rid of all the guns but did they? No. Y’all have zero critical thinking skills
My son is a Cast Member at Hollywood. He works both Muppet's & Indiana Jones show. I always like watching this show. No matter how many times I have watched it. LOL Thanks for the video!
So happy my husband was able to do the audience participation section before it went away. He was also chosen to do the stunt segment with the poison darts. Such a great experience. He now has a Indy film hat replica made by Gary White, a famous Hollywood hatter based in Buffalo
Anyone else remember they used to tell a pun during the pre-show? The stunt double playing Indy would drop down & hang from the ceiling. The guy on the ground would say, "Hi, Jack!" & Indy would say, "Don't say that at the airport!" 😅 And that joke would get a laugh. After the events of 9/11, that joke was dropped immediately.
Adam, we JUST visited HS and we forgot to go back to see the Indy show. Kinda glad we missed it now. Huge bummer they removed so much of what made the show so cool.
It was appropriate for you to watch Temple of Doom last night, since yesterday was the 40th anniversary of the movie. Those final 30 minutes of TOD are exhilarating.
Well at least they still have the stunt show but always changing out generations things that made it great to watch on repeat ... thanks for the adventure Indy Woo
Me and my wife had our honeymoon last year at Disney World. And it’s the first time I was there in like 15 years and I remember thinking that the Indiana Jones show felt underwhelming compared to when I was a kid.

Every time Mr the Woo mentions misters, I automatically hear Scott on Tap say "Hey Mister". Also, if I was at Disney today, I'd be under those misters a lot. It's already too hot and humid here in north Florida.
Adams I had such a great laugh at the beginning. When you pointed out the playset and you said you could go home and play with your significant other, I loved it, I laughed so hard.
For everyone complaining about the loss of so many gun-related bits: that has to do with Alec Baldwin's blanks incident. Not politics. Not everything has to be meant to offend you
Great video and observations. There have been a lot of changes to the show. Yes there are things that many would love to see return and maybe they will. But I offer this thought: This show has been around for 34 years, 35 in August. Maybe it has survived this long because it can be changed and adjusted. Please don't come at me, I'm not saying anyone in the comments are wrong. I'm just offering some insight. Remember the exits are to the left and right of the theater, Enjoy the rest of your day here at Disney's Hollywood (MGM) Studios!
“Have fun with your significant other….” 😂😂😂😂 I love when Adam goes off his typical script. I sure hope to run into you again at WDW next month or in August. 😊
Must say Adam you look great! Well done with your fitness regime, you have clearly worked very hard and stuck to your goals. An inspiration to others. Love your vlogs.
If you watch The Muppets At Walt Disney World you can see many of the things that were edited out. There's quite a lot that was changed. Some things I noticed based on videos: -bandits use to wear black headwraps -tail of airplane has no marking -truck had black cross removed from door -swords removed -guns removed
At 37:22 I was sitting next to Disney's professional photographer in the front row at the Indy Stunt Spectacular last August. I'm going to go ahead and speculate that this photo was taken at that show.
I miss the original show but if you never saw it....well it might not affect your enjoyment of it. I was able to have the experience of being chosen for the extras and it was really cool that's sad that someone else won't get the chance to do it. Enjoyed the video. The hat suits you🤠
An interesting little tidbit for you. I was lucky enough to be chosen as part of the cast from the audience prior to 2020, and during the fight sequence I was positioned by the actor who played Toht in the stunt show (the nazi baddie that wore the all-black suit), he actually spoke German during the fight sequence! I was probably the only person aside from the performer he was talking to who could hear him, but it was a detail that really surprised me.
Dam, they really did water down that show, thanks Woo for letting us know. It was so much better back in the early 90's. Still have a special place for for the first 3 films. Not so much for the 4rth one though. Should I bother watching the last one they did Woo?
Hey man, we met a few months ago when I was screening you at DHS. Me and Gary are doing Tiana CM preview on the 5th at noon. You're invited to join us man.

You don't get why Disney doesn't want swastikas in their park attractions?!

Right? Drives me bonkers. Leave perfection alone.
@@rizz917 I guess I'm lucky I got to see the original show a few times back in the 90s and early 00s.

You have to remember that we do live in a society that gets butt hurt to easy. Nothing is like it was when we were growing up in the 70s and 80s.
Lol, like the butt hurt in the comments?
Maybe people are more empowered to speak up

They changed things that didn't need to be changed. A bit like getting rid of the Great Movie Ride.
Great Movie Ride sucked, the only reason people wanted it to stay is nostalgia

Exactly! It’s like when they took the guns away from the Skippers for a while Deadventure Land
They still show that
I would love a revamped show with more stunts, more scenes, no explaining anything, just a nice show like waterworld.
100% agree with you. They took away too much, the samurai sword, come on, that should be in there! I was there in the early days for the full show. And yes after watching your video, I can see where it's been seriously watered down. 😞
Indy needs to hug the bad guys and sing "Kumbaya." Maybe do some crying, as he realizes the stunt show was inside of him all-along.
Indeed, the real stunt show was the friends we made along the way.
@@TapCat 🤣

Wow they really destroyed the Indy show, thanks for the heads-up.
Disney has gotten very good at ruining everything they touch and adding to my list of shows and rides I’ll never do again

The Conan Sword and Sorcery Spectacular at Universal Hollywood from 1985 will always be my favorite stunt show.
So my wife already said no to the dressing up as Indiana Jones role play….it might have been the whip that sunk the deal😂😂
Let her be Indy
@@Bur6212 🤣🤣🤣
I miss lights motor action I always had a soft spot for Herbie
big HERBIE fan here.
Anyone else hear the rattle from his camera in these videos every once in a while?
Indiana Jones and the Temple of Woo. Instead of ripping the guys heart out, Adam reaches in the guys chest and pulls out a coffee
That’s hilarious haha
I'm not familiar with your "coffee" terminology. You mean a piping hot caffeinated Beveridge right?
I remember going to this when it was brand new. IJESS was closed last time we went to MGM. It is so sad to hear how they have reduced this amazing show. Seen it several times. Glad I got to see the good version.
Big Ass Fans proudly made right here in Kentucky! 🎉
Why neuter that show? Why? Whyyyyy?
Cause Disney went Woke
Called woke
It has nothing to do with "woke" and everything to do with the safety of shooting blanks after the Alec Baldwin incident

Saw it last October. Awesome show.
And now I’m going on an Indiana Jones journey this weekend and watch them all. My all time favs! Thanks for sharing, Adam!
Dear Algorithm, I will never be bored enough for this. Thank you.
My son is a Cast Member at Hollywood. He works both Muppet's & Indiana Jones show. I always like watching this show. No matter how many times I have watched it. LOL Thanks for the video!
I never tire of the Muppets show. It's timeless
Two great attractions to work at
Should just update it all completely with different scenes if they are gonna slim it down. Imagine Waterworld stunt show with no weapons 😂😂
So happy my husband was able to do the audience participation section before it went away. He was also chosen to do the stunt segment with the poison darts. Such a great experience. He now has a Indy film hat replica made by Gary White, a famous Hollywood hatter based in Buffalo

They definitely need to bring back audience participation… and yes, water world is still king!
Adam, we JUST visited HS and we forgot to go back to see the Indy show. Kinda glad we missed it now. Huge bummer they removed so much of what made the show so cool.
Fun fact: The company headquarters for Big Ass Fans is in Lexington, Kentucky which is about an hour away from me. 😁
My older daughter loves Indy and this was so fun to show her!
Crikey, it’s Woo Irwin
"I go first, Indy!" 👍👍
I had a family member that was playing Indi at that show a few years ago

Still fun to watch 🤩 I know a stunt performer - so much goes into what they do!
There was no guy with a Samurai sword. I do remember a guy with a scimitar. Not remotely the same....
I used to work there and Im sad its not the same show anymore 😢
Im glad to know that chuck norris appreciates his fans. So many time you hear some stars dont bother.

I'll bet you don't know what Scott on Tape is referencing when he says "Hey Mister"
LOVE the 'Indy" hat you look Great in it!!!
I do miss the Light's Motor Action show that used to be at MGM Studios.
Adams I had such a great laugh at the beginning. When you pointed out the playset and you said you could go home and play with your significant other, I loved it, I laughed so hard.

First time I've ever heard Adam being a little cynical and sarcastic.
Bravo , your candor was a Breath of Fresh Air !!!
I'm glad I got to see the original version. How long until the Blasters and Light Sabers out of Galaxy's Edge?
Love ❤️ the look of that hat on you - you should wear it more often!
I saw this as a kid back in 95 and Indy fell right to the floor during his entrance. The rope didn’t catch at all. The show was immediately over.
Must say Adam you look great! Well done with your fitness regime, you have clearly worked very hard and stuck to your goals. An inspiration to others. Love your vlogs.
Great video Adam of the Indiana Jones attraction at Universal Studios-Florida..Enjoy on..
What a great time.....
Miami Vice stunt show!
I love these videos when Adam is solo and is very chatty and descriptive 👍
I installed and worked on those B. A. Fans

Looks to be a pretty neat show. Thanks for sharing Adam!
I wonder if the audience participation part was taken out for insurance reasons due to the risk of injury due to the pyrotechnics.
Hello Adam. This was great! Thanks for sharing this with us! Indiana Jones is indeed one of our favorite! 👏👏👏
I remember seeing this back in 2013 the gun part scared me
I’m excited for the new video game

Nobody in the show dies, just like The A Team.
The hat makes Adam look like @fearlessrambler
You know how Indiana Jones got the name from his dog? I recently learned that George Lucas had dog named Indiana that supposedly inspired Chewbacca.
Looks like they’re really dropping the ball on this show
