PLEASE READ BEFORE COMMENTING!!
After spending over three months working on this recreation, I have finally managed to finish Expedition Everest: Legend of the Forbidden Mountain! I tried to make everything as detailed and accurate as possible, but the complexity of this ride is so massive that I couldn't make everything 100% accurate. For example, the queue line has such weird angles that I had to sacrifice some details on the exterior of the gift shop and main entrance building. Also, the Yeti museum is so complex inside that I needed to rearrange it (those of you who know the attraction well enough will realize that there are some differences). Finally, the mountain itself is so structurally complicated that I had to sacrifice the way it looks on the exterior. Please realize that I did my absolute best to make this ride as accurate to the real thing as possible, so I hope that you will thoroughly enjoy it!
I know many of you are wondering how I made the ride go backwards and forwards. Although it is too difficult to explain the entire process, I will do my best to let you know how to make it happen. First, you need to read about how to overlap track pieces (see the link below). Once you read the information at that link, you will realize that my ride is actually made up of 3 (yes, THREE) roller coasters, not just one. The first coaster starts at the load station. It then travels along the track until it reaches the highest peak (where the track ends). At this point, to make the coaster stop there, you need to continue building the track passed this peak (I disguised the rest of the track with scenery covering it). At the continuation of the track, you need to design a slow block brake section. Design this block brake section in such a way that if a train tries to go there, it will get stuck. Once you figure out how to do that, set the number of trains to 2 and activate the block brakes. Then, set the camera to film the view from the second train, which will stop where you want it to (because the train in front of it will be stuck as you designed it to happen). After you have made that track, design the second roller coaster. This coaster should start where you want it to END. For example, on this ride, I started building at the second track switch (when you're inside and see the Yeti projection). Then, build the track up to the point where your first roller coaster stopped (overlap the tracks). Your next task is to set roller coaster #2 as a launched coaster. You must be very patient and try to find the correct launch speed so that it will just reach up to the end of the track without falling off. Once you find the correct speed, start filming the roller coaster once it reaches the highest point and starts rolling backwards (this will act as your backwards segment of the ride). Finally, you must then build your third roller coaster. Start this roller coaster at the same point that you started roller coaster #2 (in this case, at the Yeti projection screen). Then, overlapping the tracks again, have it go forward at a normal speed and continue building until the track reaches the beginning of roller coaster #1. Then film roller coaster #3. After you have done all that, edit all three coasters together using a movie editor (such as Windows Movie Maker) to make the three coasters look like one big roller coaster.
Hide & Seek: If you're clever enough, see if you can spot a picture of Joe Rohde, Creative Executive Designer for Disney's Animal Kingdom (and Expedition Everest), as well as the emergency exits along the mountain. Good luck!
As always, enjoy!

i watched this video when i was a kid and this makes me so nostalgic! the way the camera smoothly intertwined throughout the waiting line, and the random rocks that have become a part of the track!
Thank you so much for coming back to watch years later! This was such a kind message!
for whatever reason, i watched this for hours on end as a kid. endless nostalgia.
how many other people skipped the waiting line part? I know i did
EccoH not a fun experince actually
EccoH it’s none of your business
Me
EccoH the que is part of the experience
Not me
This is amazing, I can't believe you made this in only 3 months! Great job!
This is an A+ creation. Good job!
yes an a+
I was on Mount Everest (The ride) in DisneyLand and when i got off i was like, "Oh my god i feel sick!" But now i wanna go on it again!!!
Disneyland is the mattahorn bobsled
Florida has this ride Disneyland’s ride is different but for me the one in Disneyland is to rocky for I’m not sure about Florida’s tho.
DisneyLAND is in California and the ride ur talking about is called Matterhorn bobsleds and this one is in Disney WORLD Ana dis Expedition Everest
I went on this in real life, It was AWESOME!
this IS DA BEST EXPEDITION EVEREST RECREATION ON TH-cam!!!!!!
Oh god, I feel the nostalgia coming back to me; I tried countless times to recreate Expedition everest in RCT3, and really looked up to this one as the benchmark in RCT3 coaster design. Thank you for all the great memories!
This is awesome. I've never played roller coaster tycoon, but I know all games of it's type have major limitations. This is beautiful, honorably close. I'm a sherpa on Expedition Everest, and I know this ride like the back of my hand. I've walked the mountain many times. This is great.
I watched this when I was like 12 and addicted to RCT3. After years of making roller coasters and parks on Rct3, and now being 18 years old and in college studying mechanical engineering so I can become a roller coaster designer, coming back to this video just reminds me of those days playing Rct3 and watching your recreations of rock n roller coaster and expedition Everest. Thanks for the great video :)
This is AMAZING MAN !!! This is one of my favorite rides, now that you made it in RCT3 I love this ride even more!!! Nice Work!
That was absolutely amazing. I am just starting and I am still trying to wrap my head around exactly what I want to do, therefore I have yet to build anything, lol. This coaster is truly inspiring. Great Job.
Goodness! I rode that for the first time back in March, and I have to say, you made me feel the actual feel of the roller coaster! I had chills the whole time! Thanks!
This is so nostalgic thank you for creating this masterpiece
U ROCKKKKK!!!!!!! U really did a LENGENDARY job working on Expedition Everest: LEGEND of the Forbidden Moutain! I love it!
1 of the best re-creations i've ever seen I love how the way you got the noise from the real coaster with the Yeti etc Excellent 1000/1000
This. This is the video that made me a coaster enthusiast. Thank you
I loved this!! It has great detail and it is one of the best RCT3 versions I have seen. Great job!!
Wow! I'm glad both of you enjoyed it! I know I did a good job when a frequent rider says it looks amazing!
give this person a medal
This is incredible. You put a huge amount of work into this! Very talented. I really want to go on this ride now!
This has been the best recreation I've seen of this ride. When I went to Disney World, this ride was still under construction, so I didn't get to see what it looked like until I looked it up on yt. I can't wait to see what you come up with next.
this is beast, i have seen just about everyone of your videos i say this one is the best
Amazing! Loved the night and day changes from going in and out of the mountain. Keep it up!
I remember watching this and thinking this was the coolest ride in RCT3. I watched this video after I rode Everest for the first time back in 2012. So I see my opinion still stands today, holy cow this is beyond impressive.
Beautiful!
THAT WAS INCREDIBLE!
that was freaking perfect!
Incredible. You did a spectacular job. The sound effects (wind, screaming and the train), the scenario was also very good. All CSOs are used are essential and you used perfectly. Congratulations
This is still the best Expedition Everest RCT3 remake on TH-cam rn so far even though this was 12 years ago.
This is absolutely awesome!!!!! I really respect you for taking the time to do this Thanx!!!!
Ah so the finished version! Your right it is better than the previous one I commented on. I really applaud your ability to create such a life like ride and line in RTC3. In the line I got the feeling that I was really waiting to board and while the coaster was actually moving I felt that as I anticipated every bank, up, down, and turn that it hit right on the money. Very good recreation of the ride and scenery. My stepdad viewed this and said this is amazingly accurate and inspiring.
awesome never saw anything as good as this, pat on your back!
what a relief! Lol Thank you and I think that wraps up all my questions.
BEST ROLLERCOASTER EVER!! love it so detailed
I love the real roller coaster, and this one is nearly indistinguishable from it. Awesome job.
Best recreation of Everest ever. good job
That was AMAZING
That is amazing! There is so much detail! Good job!
Good job! I love how you got the station announcement in the video, along with the rest of the sound!
THAT IS AMAZING!!!!!!!!!
Excellent work. Lots of nice details.
for someone who cut corners on design, this is incredibly accurate. especially when you consider track length. everything matched up perfectly with your audio. well done!
awsome work!
all of those rocks, DAMN!
5/5
Thank you! Always glad to hear that from a Cast Member!
omg! its the best RCT3 custom scenery i seen!
Wow! This is really good! great job!
Speechless.....That was simply amazing! I love it! Great work once again! Man, you make everything in RCT3 incredible. That was close to perfect considering the limitations in RCT3. I've been on Everest 34 times and you've gotten almost everydetail! Love it! The only thing that bothered me was the mountain. But then again, it's RCT3! You really inspired me to come back to RCT3. Props to you. 5/5
definitely the best RCT3 ride remake I have ever seen!
They were still building EE when I went to WDW in 2004 so I haven't personally ridden it but I have watched POV videos of it and this looked great. I liked the way you faded between day & night shots when going in & out of the mountain. Great job.
Amazing!!!!!
@imagineer0998 this is the best expidition everest remake ever! keep up the good work!
AWESOME work!!!! I can't WAIT to ride this come April:)
Not as bad as i thought would end up. Excellent recreation.

The best ride ive EVER seen ( on rct3) SOOOOO clever thats a realy good design I think theme parks should take that into account.
This is amazing!

thats so cool! The ride at disney scared me sooo much! The yeti was all RAWR!! and we were all AHHHH haha i sound really weird. Anyway I like the Matterhorn Bobsleds better because the yeti there (people call it harold) isn't expected and it shocked me more then it scared me
It is awesome the detail is great
awesome
thats seems like a very long time to stay in line you did very good your talented..........................................oh yeah i cant wait im going there in five days yeahhhhh
Yes i noticed the Yeti museum is a bit different, (went on a vacation about a year ago, i went in the standby line once, i remeber it so well lol) its very hard to get a perfect recreation so great job on the ride.
Very amazing
@Dmode444 Was teasing of course great job! Loved this ride to death.. one of the highlights of my Disney trip.
Great job! ;) And the editing was really good!
amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
wooah this is so cool!!! i like how you used rocks to make the mountain. creative! :)
No worries. At least you're being polite about it and asking questions that haven't been asked before =) ...... and the CS is from shyguy's Circus Center Set (1 and 2)
omg!! lov it
I play RCT3 myself, and honestly, I can't do ANYTHING like this. Amazing!!! Good job!
I'm going next month & I'm so curious about this ride. Every video I've seen has been too dark to get an idea of what's going on. Thank you for making this, at least in this video you can tell what's happening!
It is so amazing
awesome!!!!!!!
i actually work at EE, this is a great job man, congratulations.
Amazing
Awesome! And such realistic audio, too! Nice job!
Well done.
seen this over 20 tmes now i love it and when the next coaster coming
i was just there in july dude nice job went on three times so id know lol excellent stuff
Awesome job. I've not had the chance to visit the real thing but I have seen many videos on TH-cam and you did an awesome job. Wish I had the skill and patience to build that well in rct3. I started my own Disneyland recreation but it's so difficult.
This is sick
Nice work Bro!
thank you so much for your help
Cool ride😄
