please learn how to use an audio compressor when there is a person far from the mic and close to the mic so you don't have to forget to manual keyframe volume ever again they are built right into your NLE even if its imovie 07’, in a better NLE you can even do it to whole tracks by just clicking that little arrow in the Chanel mixer window! It even lets you route submixes of multiple tracks to apply effects to as a group before going to the master channel for even more audio effect possibilities!
also for height anxiety close one eye it kills your depth perception, then you can just imagine its a matte painting cuz with distance there isnt a lot of paralax if you dont move much or fast, and switch eyes often and quick if it gets worse

I work at Orlando’s Medieval Times! I am a server. The kitchen staff is (probably) not depressed and HOW DARE you diss our potato; it’s my favorite. The falcons name is Hotdog btw and he has a habit of flying into peoples faces. I love him sm he’s a maniac.
Fun fact: my high school is 5-10 minutes from Gatorland. We recently had a yellow lockdown because a gator had escaped Gatorland, got on to the freeway, walked THROUGH traffic, and into our school. We were stuck an extra half an hour in our classes because a gator was running up and down the halls (the school is mostly outside; we don’t have a main building, just an arts building and then a series of classrooms along the courtyard) and they had people on campus running around trying to catch it. Dumbest panic attack I’ve had in my life. (Edit. Apparently I need to clarify for some people that I didn’t have a panic attack over the gator, I had a panic attack over the lockdown because nobody knew what was going on. I have been through three school shootings at previous schools, so that’s why I was scared. :>)
LMAO I think I used to go to the same school and we never had a gator show up in my time there but those bigass sandhill cranes posted up outside the orchestra room once and basically barricaded me inside for a good 15 minutes or so after school. Like I’m sure I would’ve been fine they’d probably have just ran away but I was worried I’d spook them at best and that they’d get pissed and peck my eyes out at worst lmaooooo
There was one time we went to Disney and our hotel was close to the wizard giftshop. My dad couldn't get the whole week off for the trip, so he drove up to meet us later (we lived in south Florida). Since it was back before EVERYONE had a smartphone and we sure as shit didn't, my mom gave him directions to get there, using the wizard gift shop as a landmark. He drove up and down the road past the wizard so many times then called my mom and kept going back and forth while she then went out in the other car to try and, like, find him and guide him back, but they didn't see each other. And that's how we learned there are two wizards.
last year my gf and i were in florida for a few weeks dogsitting for my brother. we had this exact same experience driving home from disney springs late at night. crazy shit
Worked at dinosaur world for two years! All the dinosaurs are handsculpted in the early 80s by the orginal owner. Its a decades old family business about 24 years old. The gems and fossils are real and yes the put put is for kids and even the kids loose interest. The bridge is actually the orginal entrance to the park , the front past the bridge used to be orange groves. Tons of cats all over , i ended up adopting one. And yes the museum is either super cool or super creepy depending on if you know what your in for.
I used to make my parents take us there whenever we went to Disney or universal, it was my favorite part of the trip lol. It’s so cool that it’s all hand sculpted and family owned
I've lived near Plant City my entire life, and Dinosaur World was my favorite place as a kid. I used to beg my parents to take me, and I had multiple birthdays there lol. Love them getting a little exposure. It's such a cute place. I'll literally never forget the fossil
This reminded mr a lot of a place on the Oregon coast called the Prehistoric Gardens, though the ones at Dinosaur World seem a bit more realistically painted. All concrete sculpted by the owner, though I think Oregon's goes back to the 70s
Dude I went to Medieval Times as a kid and it was so sick. My family still talks about it. The museum of torture devices that you can walk through before the show is incredible!
just before it changed hands and became Dezerland, that building was home to the Artegon Mall, a really quaint little "mall" that wasn't really a mall so much as it was a kitschy crafts and nerd fair where you could get handmade goods, niche foods, and really expensive rare anime/comics collectables. i really miss the Artegon, it was such a treat getting to see everything unique that the people with stalls there brought to the table.
I've seen the evolution of that place throughout my life. I've been going to the Cinemark movie theater there since 2007. Always amazed how the Putting edge golf has survived the whole time.
Fun fact: at the same exit as Dinosaur World, if you go down the road that runs between the two gas stations you'll find Keel and Curley Farms, which is a fantastic winery. They make their own wine and cider from fruit they grow on the farm. In the spring they do berry picking (strawberries, blueberries) and I think they do peach picking too. And they have a great little restaurant where everything they serve on their menu is either grown on their farm or locally sourced. I recommend their pina colada wine slush. Not a tourist trap but a great place to visit!
I second this! I always make it a point to go to Keel & Curley whenever I’m in the area and I’ve never been disappointed. I also really enjoyed the tour they do of the grounds, including the winery/brewery/cidery.
This reminds me of a different winery called Lakeridge Winery & Vineyards that I drove past on Highway 27 on my way to Orlando from Oklahoma, where one of the strangest coincidences I've ever experienced happened. I swear that at the exact moment I was driving past that place, an ad for it was playing on the radio in my car. That was the ONLY time I ever drove by that place and the ONLY time I ever heard an ad for it on the radio. This happened in May 2021. It was late at night and they were closed, so I couldn't have stopped there even if I wanted to (I hate wine, so I wouldn't have, anyway).
I had to get up and check the fridge when I read this comment, I thought the name looked familiar! We have a trip down to Universal planned in a few weeks, I may have to make a stop there. Their wild berry wine has been my go to for months now, it's so delicious.
My family and I went to Gatorland while on our trip to Disney World. I ran into the back of a guy's calves with my electric wheelchair, and my cousin ate a raw hot dog 10/10.
I'm a HUGE Hollywood vehicle and car enthusiast and a few years ago for my 16th birthday, I made my parents drive across four states so I could go to the Dezerland Auto Museum. I drooled and fangirled the entire time (so many of the cars there were screen used and I got to sit in a few of them!). It was my own little slice of heaven and I would absolutely go back in a heartbeat.
I also love being a tourist in my own town, like going to my local tourist traps & roadside attractions as a field trip. EDIT: to be clear, my local environs are not widely considered to be a destination of choice; not globally, or even regionally lol
honestly I got super interested in gatorland seeing how they've spun it from "we breed gators here" to "we help rescue gators that wouldn't survive in the wild" and offering cool little things like feeding the gators and the "wrestling" photo ops. and for quite a bargain compared to sea world, and probably far more ethical.
Hey, I know I'm just a random stranger on the internet, but I wanted to thank you, Billiam. I grew up in Kissimmee. I actually went to the High School right next to Gatorland. My brother was a worker at the gift shop in that same Medieval Times you went too. I used to go to Old Town all the time. I wonder if that shop that sells crystals and stuff is still open. And the Giant Wizards actually used to terrify me as a kid for some reason. Most of all, I loved going to Disney Springs to check out the Lego store there. I moved up north years ago, and haven't been back since. Watching this video gave me such nostalgia from my childhood. I actually watched it a few hours after it came out, on one of the roughest nights I had in a while. I can't tell you how much I needed that. This might sound silly, but your video reminded me of the simple joys in life, and I'm grateful for it. So thank you. Sincerely, A Random Stranger on TH-cam. BTW, for anyone in the area, I recommend checking out Capone's Resturant. Its a little cheesy, but it's a dinner and a stage show, plus the drinks are good.
Same with me but moved further west. I also remember when it was called downtown Disney and not Disney springs. My aunt used to work at the central gift shop and would get me all the cool employee pins to trade.
I feel the need to say that I am so miffed that you sent me down a nonexistent rabbithole regarding what happened at Gator Jungle on 1990. There was nothing other than a somewhat grim article about the gator farming that took place there, but no arrests.
I googled something along the lines of "gator jungle 6 arrests 1990" and found out what he was talking about. in 1997 six people between the ages of 15-20 broke in and beat two crocodiles to death with wooden planks. dinosaur world opened up a year later. kind of wish he gave more of a warning about what the event entailed bc it was really upsetting finding that out
Orlando resident here, we’re so lucky to have Mortem Manor at Old Town. A year round haunted house walk through attraction is a rare thing, and this is one of the absolute best.
I’ve been to medieval times exactly once when I was around 7 years old and it became a vivid memory for me. When the green knight threw roses into the crowd I hoped I’d get one and my little heart soared when my wish came true. I left gripping that rose so tight and feeling so special that night. Shoutout to you Mr. Green Knight, wherever you are.
21:36 The foopa is actually called an ischium! It might look naughty but it's just an attachment point for muscles, along with the pubis, a foopa in front of the legs. Humans have them too, but our hip bones are fused so they don't look like weird bulges
as someone who grew up in florida i very rarely feel nostalgic about home but this vid really did it for me. there's something so special about sunny days with campy roadside tourist traps
i find the kitschy over the top american roadside attraction vibe oddly charming and whimsical. i love how you talked to about all the defunct attractions too
As a native of Pinellas County, I've been a regular at the Kissimmee/Orlando tourist traps since Disney World opened. My family were one of the first visitors to DW in 1971. My husband and I were regular attendees at Medieval Times and Sleuth Mystery Dinner Theater starting in 1997. The last time we were there was 2017. We went to every dinner show attraction except the Dolly Parton and Arabian Knights ones. With the exception of Medieval Times, the food in every single one was unpalatable! ESPECIALLY Pirate's Dinner Adventure! You seriously dodged a bullet with that one! And the food you got at Medieval Times was nothing like what they used to serve. It used to be a little different and really good! We hadn't been there for about 10 years prior to going again in 2017 and it was a shell of the attraction it had been. We decided we would not ever return after that. You actually missed out on the Kissimmee heyday. Did you even get to go to Ripley's Believe it or Not? Or is it gone? So many things are gone, even before covid hit. Like the Rainforest Café in Downtown Disney (also gone). So sad to see it all disappear. [And it's pronounced: kiss-I-me (short vowel "i", accent on the middle syllable)].
billiam’s got such a stellar sense of humour, his comedy is unmatched! love seeing him bounce off other people, especially the billiam team. savannah is such a welcome addition to videos!
Billiam: you have no idea how excited my house got when you started talking about medieval times. The master of ceremonies is a family friend and the red knight is a beloved acquaintance. We went on our honeymoon 2 years ago for the 1st time, and thanks to those 2, we had an unforgettable experience. Was definitely worth paying the little bit extra for better seats.
I always recount this vivid nightmare as a child that I was trapped in a terrifying arcade with weird things like a bed of nails, hurricane simulator, a weird spinning light bridge, and a room where you play that board game where you strap a headset on and try to move a ball with your mind. I realize now that it wasn't a nightmare, and that I was in Wonderworks for some reason.
I actually went to Pirate Adventures when I was in high school as part of my marching band's annual Orlando spring break trip. We left the Disney/Universal bubbles to have a "special dinner" there and we all wore eye patches and bandanas. I was seated in the red pirate's section. It really just is Medieval Times but with a different theme, and Caribbean-ish food instead of medieval food. Clearly it had an impact on me bc I still remember it like 15 years later lmao
The amount of nostalgia from this video is surreal. Born and raised in Sarasota and despite that, we didn’t go to Disney as much as most around here but the amount of times my uncle would take me to medieval times, gator land, and Dino land. Good times man
Old Town once had a concert hall hosting Wolfman Jack bring classic 50s rock groups back together for fantastic shows. I loved the Saturday night classic car shows with the theme announced over store front intercoms. "Friday night is for dating, BUT, Saturday nights are for cruising!"
Billiam, I cannot stress you enough - how me and my brother went to medieval times as kids 20 years ago.. I sent him the a like time stamped before you got to that part of the video and watched it together anticipating a good laugh about the place still being there. Then you mentioned the potato...we have had a joke between ourselves about the medieval potato that we reference frequently to this day. When me and my brother were tossed that crumpled piece of tinfoil , one of hundreds from a bin she carried onto our tray and asked "What's that?" - the cold dead 5 mile stare of our waitress who has seen too much war for her someone her age, in the most deadpan of voices telling me "It's a medieval potato." And floating away like a poltergeist - will never not be one of the funniest things I've ever seen in my life. I often wonder how she's doing. Miss, if your out there, or any former serfs of that establishment, I hope you found peace and happiness. It's like all my life and memories were lived up til now just for that moment of your video. Amazing.
as a native floridian for 29 years who went to orlando Constantly over the course of those years, this made me smile, ah the 192 and int'l drive, my old friends, and the Always Under Construction I-4. i never went to gatorland or dino world, but seeing medieval times, old town, icon park, and wonderworks made me happy -- esp old town, that was one of our usual haunts for my entire childhood, we used to stay in the nearby hotels and walk there, man, its good to see you featuring it
As someone who grew up going to Disney almost yearly, sometimes twice a year but hasn’t been in about a decade, seeing all of these attractions just gave me so much nostalgia. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve passed by these places, never going to them, but they still felt like a part of the experience to me.
Florida native here, specifically central Florida, there used to be a fantastic craft fair in the Festival Bay Mall before Dezer bought it. Also I saw you showed Twistee Treat but didn't go! Highly recommend, their ice cream is delicious!!
I will always hold true that Medieval Times is one of the best, most genuine casual good times you can have on a whim with friends. Tear into some sloppy food together and watch dudes do choreographed fights.
21:38 - "Well I'm glad you asked-" Hiya, Paleo-nerd here. If I'm not mistaken, that "fupa" would represent the "ischium" part of the pelvic bone. The prong-like structure of a Saurischian ("lizard hipped") dinosaur's pelvic bones are often separated into 3 distinct regions; the illium (the big anvil-shaped part on top), the pubis (the "prong" facing down) and last the "ischium" (the "prong" facing back). These would be seen in theropod and sauropods respectively. Granted, that "bulge" would certainly not be as exaggeratedly "bulging" in an accurately portrayed theropod dinosaur. Older paleo-art of dinosaurs often shrink wrapped their dinosaur subjects and as a result you tend to see certain bones bulge out of their subjects and otherwise looking very emancipated. Ornithischian ("bird hipped") dinosaurs have a similar hip plan, but was a bit different; which you'd see in hadrosaurs, stegosaurs, ceratopsians, pachycephalosaurs, etc. Also I love your videos! Keep up the great work!
As a former dinosaur-fanatic who has lapsed since he became an adult, I thank you for this information that cleared up a lot of questions from my childhood and informed me that a depiction I thought realistic was in fact affected by the biases and less than stellar practices of old.
I just wanted to say, I absolutely love this video because you and your partner are so POSITIVE about everything! You weren’t taking the piss or being sarcastic/ironic, it was fun to see you guys have fun.
Something I always point out to anyone coming down to visit Central Florida: You can see launches from Kennedy Space Center from Orlando--including from the theme parks--as long as you have a clear east-north-east view. It's worth checking the launch schedule when you're down to see if you might be in a place to see it. Don't plan your day around it, though, as they often get scrubbed.
I’ve never heard of this channel before and found this video in my suggestions. Honestly I’m so glad I watched because I was laughing the whole time, you guys seem like so much fun.
Feels weird seeing a video about my hometown of Kissimmee. I used to feel kind of embarassed by these tourist traps when family and friends would visit, but the camp of it all has kind of grown on me :) i absolutely love gatorland
Used to live in Sanford for 5 years and man this is full of memories. Fun fact, a lot of high schools in the area do their after prom party at Gator World. For 4 of the 5 years I lived there, I worked at jewelry stores, a hair salon, and a place that was for bridal and formal wear and the amount of girls/guys that wanted some sort of camo for their prom and weddings is far too high.
I love that you do videos about Floridia’s weird culture. My grandparents used to live in lake placid Florida and I loved visiting them during spring break in elementary school bc florida is always weird and fun
As a born & raised Floridian who spent practically their whole youth & young adult years going to disney, you have answered SO many questions I have had ALL my life but have never had time to answer. 😂 Thank you for this!
What timing! I'm writing a paper for a master's class in cultural heritage right now about kitschy/more local tourism outside of Disney and shops on 192 is a topic!!
@@Last_Person Yeah, it has been! I have to look at four local cultural heritages of an area. I chose Kissimmee bc I live there for a few years, and the zaney tourist shops/stops (I literally lived behind one) was an obvious choice. But its been fun to do a deeper dive into the area and learn about things I missed out on, bc working 50+ hours a week for Disney lives little time to be a person.
I believe you're confusing Ripley's with Wonderworks. Wonderworks is the upside down building, Ripley's is the one that looks like it's half sinking in the ground at an angle. Edit: Oh maybe you meant it was "like a" as in similar to a Ripley's which yes it kind of was even with the actual Ripley's being along the same International Drive.
I live and grew up in Orlando. Love gator land when I went twice. Medieval times was great when I was a kid. I remember our school taking us on a field trip there. So many memories in Orlando.
I went to gator land with my family a while back and we “wrangled “ the gator as well, I went first, then my brother, then my sister. She was so scared that she wouldn’t sit all the way down on the gator, she’d just barely hover over it, but the guy running the show wouldn’t let her leave until she sat on it. She was flipping out but he literally wouldn’t let her walk away. Everyone in line was cheering her on (mostly cause she was holding up the line I’m sure) and finally, she taps the gator just barely. Everyone cheers, I kid you not, and we are finally allowed to leave. 10/10, would love to go again
I absolutely love this video because I’ve lived in this exact area of Florida for decades and grew up with the parks and a lot of these places !!! It’s really fun to have such a nostalgic video of them all, you wouldn’t believe how many there USED to be that you missed! Edit: “I’d die for US-192” BRO NEVER THOUGHT ID HEAR THAT I CANT BREATHE
Finally, another person who has actually gone to Dezerland. I went last time I was in Florida because it was aggressively advertised to me constantly, and finally I was like "fiNE, I'LL GO TO ORLANDO'S LARGEST AIR CONDITIONED ATTRACTION". It was basically completely empty, almost desolate. There were cars in boarded-up storefronts. Tiny knock-off Tron lightcycles meandered by. I thought I had gone to Floridian entertainment purgatory. It was like a fever dream. What an incredible space.
I remember going there when I was a young kid, my sister and I went to the mini golf place and requested Adele lmao. We had forgotten what the place was called, just had this memory of mini golf and this video finally answered our question I think there used to be a movie theatre in there as well?
You know a museum is gonna be good when they force you to watch an entire PBS documentary. Shout out to the Tennessee Williams museum in Key West for that same reason.
I’ve lived in orlando most of my life my school went on field trips to Gator land and Medieval times. These might be tourist traps but they have definitely added to Central florida as-well, Great video!
One of my favorite non-theme park places in Orlando to go is the Titanic exhibit that’s closed to Universal. They do themed first class dinners on Friday and Saturday nights and, for a while, were also doing Sunday afternoon tea services.
I used to live in the motel at the Big Orange when my parents lost the house, and we had 3 weeks until we became destitute. Good times :) Edit: Actually, this video was very nostalgic for me. Growing up in Kissimmee, Florida meant at least driving by a lot of these places rather frequently, pining out the window of the van as I beg to go to all these absurd tourist spots. We did end up going to a couple of them, like Old Town, Fun Spot, and I think Dinosaur Land? That might have been a fever dream. The late 2000s were a rough time for a lot of families, but there were some bright spots for me as a kid, even in the later months when we were practically homeless. Central Florida might be a cesspool of humidity, traffic, and mosquitoes, but it was my home.
These ‘concrete wonders’ were separate attractions for us when we went to Disneyworld when i was younger, like a checklist as we drove to Disney every morning. We never went in any but they’re weirdly near and dear to my heart
Coming out as a Florida Man was very brave & I hope you thrive, Billiam. Keep loving those mermaids & reptiles & manatees & being appalled at/charmed by (as applicable) by roadside attractions.
Briefly Dezerland was a shopping market called Artegon that had a ton of shops from small local artists and businesses. Miss it a lot, I only go to Dezerland now for the Cinemark in the building
I lived just down the street from the Walmart on 192 for 4 years (2016-2020) and worked at Disney/Universal. This video shockingly really made me miss my time in Florida. Thanks, Billiam
You forgot "Showcase of Citrus" along rt 27. Catch a ride on a giant monster truck through Citrus fields, pet exotic animals, and take a picture under a shark
I went to Medieval times during my New york trip in middle school. It was awesome! The colorful flags, the ambiance, the food, the music; everything was fun! Also, my class was with the Yellow knight. We scream for him during the play, encouraged him and even do a wave while we cheer. The best part? He wins and we took a picture with him 😀It was a nice souvenir!

Hotdog sounds like a legend
Hot dog is my favorite coworker!!!! He's a little rebel
"I used to visit a gator behind a FedEx," is the most Florida thing I've ever heard.
I understand not wanting to bother an alligator when his shift is almost over
Heck yeah! Labor friendly culture building!
It's like coming I to a restaurant 5 minutes before closing, I'm not afraid of the servers I just want to respect their time.
Honestly, I would just feel rude
Especially when your pants are filled with piss like that
Fun fact: my high school is 5-10 minutes from Gatorland. We recently had a yellow lockdown because a gator had escaped Gatorland, got on to the freeway, walked THROUGH traffic, and into our school. We were stuck an extra half an hour in our classes because a gator was running up and down the halls (the school is mostly outside; we don’t have a main building, just an arts building and then a series of classrooms along the courtyard) and they had people on campus running around trying to catch it. Dumbest panic attack I’ve had in my life.
(Edit. Apparently I need to clarify for some people that I didn’t have a panic attack over the gator, I had a panic attack over the lockdown because nobody knew what was going on. I have been through three school shootings at previous schools, so that’s why I was scared. :>)
Florida core✨🐊🌾🕸️🦎✨
Imagine it was that giant Nile crocodile that got loose 👀👀
One time my middle school, also in Florida, got locked down over an escaped ape
LMAO I think I used to go to the same school and we never had a gator show up in my time there but those bigass sandhill cranes posted up outside the orchestra room once and basically barricaded me inside for a good 15 minutes or so after school. Like I’m sure I would’ve been fine they’d probably have just ran away but I was worried I’d spook them at best and that they’d get pissed and peck my eyes out at worst lmaooooo
Can't get more Florida than that.
11:01 "he threw roses and I caught one" then shows a carnation. poor boy, someone buy him some real roses lol
The fact Pirate Adventures just cancels and takes you money is the most pirate things possible.
"But its a PIRATE show!"
That's the adventure

Oops.
And for that moment in time your family lived in a sitcom
Worked at dinosaur world for two years! All the dinosaurs are handsculpted in the early 80s by the orginal owner. Its a decades old family business about 24 years old. The gems and fossils are real and yes the put put is for kids and even the kids loose interest. The bridge is actually the orginal entrance to the park , the front past the bridge used to be orange groves. Tons of cats all over , i ended up adopting one. And yes the museum is either super cool or super creepy depending on if you know what your in for.
I used to make my parents take us there whenever we went to Disney or universal, it was my favorite part of the trip lol. It’s so cool that it’s all hand sculpted and family owned
I'm from Glen Rose and went when that location open in 2008
I've lived near Plant City my entire life, and Dinosaur World was my favorite place as a kid. I used to beg my parents to take me, and I had multiple birthdays there lol. Love them getting a little exposure. It's such a cute place. I'll literally never forget the fossil
This reminded mr a lot of a place on the Oregon coast called the Prehistoric Gardens, though the ones at Dinosaur World seem a bit more realistically painted. All concrete sculpted by the owner, though I think Oregon's goes back to the 70s
There's a national guard armory near there, i still have a video somewhere of me driving a humvee in front of Dinosaur World 😂😂
Dude I went to Medieval Times as a kid and it was so sick. My family still talks about it. The museum of torture devices that you can walk through before the show is incredible!
just before it changed hands and became Dezerland, that building was home to the Artegon Mall, a really quaint little "mall" that wasn't really a mall so much as it was a kitschy crafts and nerd fair where you could get handmade goods, niche foods, and really expensive rare anime/comics collectables. i really miss the Artegon, it was such a treat getting to see everything unique that the people with stalls there brought to the table.
Artegon was so cool while it was open.
And before that it was festival bay and had a vans skate park
NOOOO THAT USED TO BE ARTEGON??? I WANTED TO GO AT SOME POINT 😭😭😭
I've seen the evolution of that place throughout my life. I've been going to the Cinemark movie theater there since 2007. Always amazed how the Putting edge golf has survived the whole time.
I remember (and still call) it Festival Bay. Still go for the Bass Pro and miss the Vans skate park.
fun fact - The falcon at medieval times is named "Hot Dog" and no one hates the potatos more than the kitchen
Poor Hot Dog looks like he isn't made for that job
Thanks for having me! It was a dino-blast!

Fun fact: at the same exit as Dinosaur World, if you go down the road that runs between the two gas stations you'll find Keel and Curley Farms, which is a fantastic winery. They make their own wine and cider from fruit they grow on the farm. In the spring they do berry picking (strawberries, blueberries) and I think they do peach picking too.

@@weird.wild.wonderful Yes! My husband and I moved out of Florida a couple years ago and they are definitely one of the things I miss!
This reminds me of a different winery called Lakeridge Winery & Vineyards that I drove past on Highway 27 on my way to Orlando from Oklahoma, where one of the strangest coincidences I've ever experienced happened. I swear that at the exact moment I was driving past that place, an ad for it was playing on the radio in my car. That was the ONLY time I ever drove by that place and the ONLY time I ever heard an ad for it on the radio. This happened in May 2021. It was late at night and they were closed, so I couldn't have stopped there even if I wanted to (I hate wine, so I wouldn't have, anyway).
I had to get up and check the fridge when I read this comment, I thought the name looked familiar! We have a trip down to Universal planned in a few weeks, I may have to make a stop there. Their wild berry wine has been my go to for months now, it's so delicious.
My family and I went to Gatorland while on our trip to Disney World. I ran into the back of a guy's calves with my electric wheelchair, and my cousin ate a raw hot dog 10/10.
No such thing as a raw hotdog.
@wheels-of-terror you lived up to your username that day.
God i love the context added to your name
The Wizard101 combat theme in the background towards the end of the medieval times part hit me with an insane nostalgia wave
I'm a HUGE Hollywood vehicle and car enthusiast and a few years ago for my 16th birthday, I made my parents drive across four states so I could go to the Dezerland Auto Museum. I drooled and fangirled the entire time (so many of the cars there were screen used and I got to sit in a few of them!). It was my own little slice of heaven and I would absolutely go back in a heartbeat.
That’s very good to know - only so much caught my eye, but I’m sure if you know what you’re looking at it’s way more interesting
Call me crazy, but I love tourist trap type places over major packs. They can be strangely charming.
I also love being a tourist in my own town, like going to my local tourist traps & roadside attractions as a field trip.
EDIT: to be clear, my local environs are not widely considered to be a destination of choice; not globally, or even regionally lol
It depends on the price to be honest
honestly I got super interested in gatorland seeing how they've spun it from "we breed gators here" to "we help rescue gators that wouldn't survive in the wild" and offering cool little things like feeding the gators and the "wrestling" photo ops. and for quite a bargain compared to sea world, and probably far more ethical.
"Can be" is the key word here, I think.
Took my daughter to Disney and Gatorland... she didn't wanna leave gatorland.
Hey, I know I'm just a random stranger on the internet, but I wanted to thank you, Billiam. I grew up in Kissimmee. I actually went to the High School right next to Gatorland. My brother was a worker at the gift shop in that same Medieval Times you went too. I used to go to Old Town all the time. I wonder if that shop that sells crystals and stuff is still open. And the Giant Wizards actually used to terrify me as a kid for some reason. Most of all, I loved going to Disney Springs to check out the Lego store there. I moved up north years ago, and haven't been back since. Watching this video gave me such nostalgia from my childhood. I actually watched it a few hours after it came out, on one of the roughest nights I had in a while. I can't tell you how much I needed that. This might sound silly, but your video reminded me of the simple joys in life, and I'm grateful for it. So thank you.
Sincerely, A Random Stranger on TH-cam.
BTW, for anyone in the area, I recommend checking out Capone's Resturant. Its a little cheesy, but it's a dinner and a stage show, plus the drinks are good.
Did you go to Cypress Creek?
@Oddplanet99 Nope, I went to OCSA at the time
if you mean the crystal shop with all the dreamcatchers hanging arounds, then yes, its open, saw it a few months ago.
I’m right there with you. Just moved across the country and desperately needed this hit of nostalgia.
Same with me but moved further west. I also remember when it was called downtown Disney and not Disney springs. My aunt used to work at the central gift shop and would get me all the cool employee pins to trade.
I feel the need to say that I am so miffed that you sent me down a nonexistent rabbithole regarding what happened at Gator Jungle on 1990. There was nothing other than a somewhat grim article about the gator farming that took place there, but no arrests.
Glad I came to the comments because I’ve just been googling for the last 10 minutes trying to find something 😂
Ok good, im not the only one who found nothing then
Same can’t find anything
you can find the articles by looking up "gator jungle plant city arrests;" it was actually in 1997! crocodiles were indeed extingushed :(
I googled something along the lines of "gator jungle 6 arrests 1990" and found out what he was talking about. in 1997 six people between the ages of 15-20 broke in and beat two crocodiles to death with wooden planks. dinosaur world opened up a year later.
kind of wish he gave more of a warning about what the event entailed bc it was really upsetting finding that out
Tourist Traps are so weird and fun. I kinda enjoy the bizarre world of attractions
Orlando resident here, we’re so lucky to have Mortem Manor at Old Town. A year round haunted house walk through attraction is a rare thing, and this is one of the absolute best.
Literally so cheap and so fun I love it
i hope it was closed during covid. but knowing the south....press x to doubt
@@JeskidoYTyou must be fun at parties
whoever put wax figures in Florida is a crazy person
It's like making a house out of ice cream.
Thought the same thing
I mean, the oldest wax museum in the USA is located in Florida! Potter's Wax Museum in St Augustine was opened in 1948 and is still running now
@@GoldieDoggy Doesn't that make that guy even crazier? Not even copying business model from somewhere else in the states.
the real attraction is the AC blasting in the building.
I’ve been to medieval times exactly once when I was around 7 years old and it became a vivid memory for me. When the green knight threw roses into the crowd I hoped I’d get one and my little heart soared when my wish came true. I left gripping that rose so tight and feeling so special that night.
Shoutout to you Mr. Green Knight, wherever you are.
21:36 The foopa is actually called an ischium! It might look naughty but it's just an attachment point for muscles, along with the pubis, a foopa in front of the legs. Humans have them too, but our hip bones are fused so they don't look like weird bulges
as someone who grew up in florida i very rarely feel nostalgic about home but this vid really did it for me. there's something so special about sunny days with campy roadside tourist traps
"You can always hit the pen in the car before you go inside."
This is the understanding more people need.
This part had me absolutely cackling, as a Floridian that is exactly what I do before entering any overpriced establishment
Hittin the peen
Real
love that for us lol
The EpiPen?
i find the kitschy over the top american roadside attraction vibe oddly charming and whimsical. i love how you talked to about all the defunct attractions too
Also fun fact: call the Gatorland phone number and let it go through the recorded message. Die laughing
Oh yea, the gatorland prerecorded message!!😂
Broooo blasted this shit was so funny
Will never forget the Gabriel Iglesias bit about it
THANK YOU SO MUCH RANDOM TH-cam COMMENTER
I love how he messes up and laughs, and just gets back on his bullshit 😂
BEST THING EVER
As a native of Pinellas County, I've been a regular at the Kissimmee/Orlando tourist traps since Disney World opened. My family were one of the first visitors to DW in 1971. My husband and I were regular attendees at Medieval Times and Sleuth Mystery Dinner Theater starting in 1997. The last time we were there was 2017. We went to every dinner show attraction except the Dolly Parton and Arabian Knights ones. With the exception of Medieval Times, the food in every single one was unpalatable! ESPECIALLY Pirate's Dinner Adventure! You seriously dodged a bullet with that one! And the food you got at Medieval Times was nothing like what they used to serve. It used to be a little different and really good! We hadn't been there for about 10 years prior to going again in 2017 and it was a shell of the attraction it had been. We decided we would not ever return after that. You actually missed out on the Kissimmee heyday. Did you even get to go to Ripley's Believe it or Not? Or is it gone? So many things are gone, even before covid hit. Like the Rainforest Café in Downtown Disney (also gone). So sad to see it all disappear. [And it's pronounced: kiss-I-me (short vowel "i", accent on the middle syllable)].
billiam’s got such a stellar sense of humour, his comedy is unmatched! love seeing him bounce off other people, especially the billiam team. savannah is such a welcome addition to videos!
ALL HAIL THE QUEEN
HER HORSE SHAT RIGHT IN FRONT OF THESE PEOPLE
YES QUEEN THATS SO MEDIEVAL
-Billiam 2024
Wha tha fack
I chuckled outloud hearing this one ha
Dude, we went to Medieval Times on our honeymoon. No regrets.
lol
One of my regrets about living in Orlando briefly while working at Walt Disney World was NOT going to Medieval Times. 😞
Billiam: you have no idea how excited my house got when you started talking about medieval times. The master of ceremonies is a family friend and the red knight is a beloved acquaintance. We went on our honeymoon 2 years ago for the 1st time, and thanks to those 2, we had an unforgettable experience. Was definitely worth paying the little bit extra for better seats.
I always recount this vivid nightmare as a child that I was trapped in a terrifying arcade with weird things like a bed of nails, hurricane simulator, a weird spinning light bridge, and a room where you play that board game where you strap a headset on and try to move a ball with your mind. I realize now that it wasn't a nightmare, and that I was in Wonderworks for some reason.
oh my god the Old Town electric chair is still THERE? Honestly thought they would've gotten rid of that thing by now
I absolutely love the "The wizard! The wizard? The wizard! *gasp* THE WIZARD! :D"
I actually went to Pirate Adventures when I was in high school as part of my marching band's annual Orlando spring break trip. We left the Disney/Universal bubbles to have a "special dinner" there and we all wore eye patches and bandanas. I was seated in the red pirate's section. It really just is Medieval Times but with a different theme, and Caribbean-ish food instead of medieval food. Clearly it had an impact on me bc I still remember it like 15 years later lmao
It feels so weird whenever I see anyone talk about Dinosaur world. I drive by it every day, and that garfield looking T-rex is always a highlight.
The amount of nostalgia from this video is surreal. Born and raised in Sarasota and despite that, we didn’t go to Disney as much as most around here but the amount of times my uncle would take me to medieval times, gator land, and Dino land. Good times man
Old Town once had a concert hall hosting Wolfman Jack bring classic 50s rock groups back together for fantastic shows. I loved the Saturday night classic car shows with the theme announced over store front intercoms. "Friday night is for dating, BUT, Saturday nights are for cruising!"
Billiam, I cannot stress you enough - how me and my brother went to medieval times as kids 20 years ago.. I sent him the a like time stamped before you got to that part of the video and watched it together anticipating a good laugh about the place still being there.
Then you mentioned the potato...we have had a joke between ourselves about the medieval potato that we reference frequently to this day.
When me and my brother were tossed that crumpled piece of tinfoil , one of hundreds from a bin she carried onto our tray and asked "What's that?" - the cold dead 5 mile stare of our waitress who has seen too much war for her someone her age, in the most deadpan of voices telling me "It's a medieval potato." And floating away like a poltergeist - will never not be one of the funniest things I've ever seen in my life.
I often wonder how she's doing. Miss, if your out there, or any former serfs of that establishment, I hope you found peace and happiness.
It's like all my life and memories were lived up til now just for that moment of your video. Amazing.
Its a medieval potato!
Visited by the ghost of potatoes past.
I love how much fun you and Savannah were having together.
as a native floridian for 29 years who went to orlando Constantly over the course of those years, this made me smile, ah the 192 and int'l drive, my old friends, and the Always Under Construction I-4. i never went to gatorland or dino world, but seeing medieval times, old town, icon park, and wonderworks made me happy -- esp old town, that was one of our usual haunts for my entire childhood, we used to stay in the nearby hotels and walk there, man, its good to see you featuring it
As someone who grew up going to Disney almost yearly, sometimes twice a year but hasn’t been in about a decade, seeing all of these attractions just gave me so much nostalgia. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve passed by these places, never going to them, but they still felt like a part of the experience to me.
Florida native here, specifically central Florida, there used to be a fantastic craft fair in the Festival Bay Mall before Dezer bought it. Also I saw you showed Twistee Treat but didn't go! Highly recommend, their ice cream is delicious!!
The guy at orange world handing u a sample with tongs and you just touch the whole thing 😂😂
I will always hold true that Medieval Times is one of the best, most genuine casual good times you can have on a whim with friends. Tear into some sloppy food together and watch dudes do choreographed fights.
21:38 - "Well I'm glad you asked-"
Hiya, Paleo-nerd here.
If I'm not mistaken, that "fupa" would represent the "ischium" part of the pelvic bone. The prong-like structure of a Saurischian ("lizard hipped") dinosaur's pelvic bones are often separated into 3 distinct regions; the illium (the big anvil-shaped part on top), the pubis (the "prong" facing down) and last the "ischium" (the "prong" facing back). These would be seen in theropod and sauropods respectively. Granted, that "bulge" would certainly not be as exaggeratedly "bulging" in an accurately portrayed theropod dinosaur. Older paleo-art of dinosaurs often shrink wrapped their dinosaur subjects and as a result you tend to see certain bones bulge out of their subjects and otherwise looking very emancipated. Ornithischian ("bird hipped") dinosaurs have a similar hip plan, but was a bit different; which you'd see in hadrosaurs, stegosaurs, ceratopsians, pachycephalosaurs, etc.
Also I love your videos! Keep up the great work!
I think you mean emaciated, unless you're saying the dinosaurs look liberated?
As a former dinosaur-fanatic who has lapsed since he became an adult, I thank you for this information that cleared up a lot of questions from my childhood and informed me that a depiction I thought realistic was in fact affected by the biases and less than stellar practices of old.
The dragon sneezing in the Chocolate Kingdom video made me laugh way more than I should probably admit. xD
I just wanted to say, I absolutely love this video because you and your partner are so POSITIVE about everything! You weren’t taking the piss or being sarcastic/ironic, it was fun to see you guys have fun.
Having fun is bourgeois and oppressive though. You need to be miserable all the time. Like some of the other commenters here. /s
Hit the pen in the car had me dying 😂
that is the way
Something I always point out to anyone coming down to visit Central Florida: You can see launches from Kennedy Space Center from Orlando--including from the theme parks--as long as you have a clear east-north-east view. It's worth checking the launch schedule when you're down to see if you might be in a place to see it. Don't plan your day around it, though, as they often get scrubbed.
I had the opportunity to go to Gaterland for my first time just last month. As a born and raised Utahn, it was an absolute blast
I've been workshopping a similar attraction in utah called big kitty land, where you can wrestle and pet cougars 🥰😺
"you could always hit the pen in the car before you go in." as a brand new subscriber, because of that line, i agree.
I’ve never heard of this channel before and found this video in my suggestions. Honestly I’m so glad I watched because I was laughing the whole time, you guys seem like so much fun.
I’m obsessed with these kind of places and roadside attractions. I live in the UK so it’s nice to see videos from other places I may never visit
I know a lot of people from the Uk who’ve come to Orlando. Don’t give up on your dreams!
You can do it
ORLANDO RESIDENTS RISE UP
(along with our rent)
Bonus points if you work in tourism here 🥲🥲🥲
1800+ for one bed is crazy TToTT
True American patriots worship their landlords. I always tip my landlord because I'm a good American! Obedient, submissive, grateful. 🌈
4 Corners here, I'm laughing, but it's through the pain!
I've been to Medieval Times back as a child, great memories, jousting goes so hard
Feels weird seeing a video about my hometown of Kissimmee. I used to feel kind of embarassed by these tourist traps when family and friends would visit, but the camp of it all has kind of grown on me :) i absolutely love gatorland
Hearing someone talk about my hometown of Orlando is so surreal. So many core memories you unlocked with the stuff you showed off, awesome video!
Used to live in Sanford for 5 years and man this is full of memories. Fun fact, a lot of high schools in the area do their after prom party at Gator World. For 4 of the 5 years I lived there, I worked at jewelry stores, a hair salon, and a place that was for bridal and formal wear and the amount of girls/guys that wanted some sort of camo for their prom and weddings is far too high.
My mother visited USA (and Florida) a few years before I was born. So it was fun seeing some of the places she has mentioned over the years.
I love that you do videos about Floridia’s weird culture. My grandparents used to live in lake placid Florida and I loved visiting them during spring break in elementary school bc florida is always weird and fun
As a Floridian who isn’t currently living in Florida I love your channel because it reminds me of home and makes me feel like a kid again
As a born & raised Floridian who spent practically their whole youth & young adult years going to disney, you have answered SO many questions I have had ALL my life but have never had time to answer. 😂 Thank you for this!
What timing! I'm writing a paper for a master's class in cultural heritage right now about kitschy/more local tourism outside of Disney and shops on 192 is a topic!!
That sounds like such an interesting topic to go into
@@Last_Person Yeah, it has been! I have to look at four local cultural heritages of an area. I chose Kissimmee bc I live there for a few years, and the zaney tourist shops/stops (I literally lived behind one) was an obvious choice. But its been fun to do a deeper dive into the area and learn about things I missed out on, bc working 50+ hours a week for Disney lives little time to be a person.
That upside-down building is way cooler than when I went there in the 90’s. It used to be like a Ripley’d Believe it or Not place.
I believe you're confusing Ripley's with Wonderworks. Wonderworks is the upside down building, Ripley's is the one that looks like it's half sinking in the ground at an angle.
Edit: Oh maybe you meant it was "like a" as in similar to a Ripley's which yes it kind of was even with the actual Ripley's being along the same International Drive.
Billiam infodumping about alligators is adorable.
I live and grew up in Orlando. Love gator land when I went twice. Medieval times was great when I was a kid. I remember our school taking us on a field trip there. So many memories in Orlando.
God I'd love to see Jenny Nicholson do this exact video idea as well
I went to gator land with my family a while back and we “wrangled “ the gator as well, I went first, then my brother, then my sister. She was so scared that she wouldn’t sit all the way down on the gator, she’d just barely hover over it, but the guy running the show wouldn’t let her leave until she sat on it. She was flipping out but he literally wouldn’t let her walk away. Everyone in line was cheering her on (mostly cause she was holding up the line I’m sure) and finally, she taps the gator just barely. Everyone cheers, I kid you not, and we are finally allowed to leave. 10/10, would love to go again
I used to live in Kissimmee and I can't believe that these shops are still there.
"no brachiosaurus don't hold it in it doesn't work!!!" 😭😭
You make some of my absolute favorite videos on the internet, from niche tourist traps to deep cut cable television. Keep doing what you're doing!
That go-kart track at Old Town is literally so sketchy but so fun, I was shocked it was allowed to operate 😂
12:18 is when i realized Billiam is chill like that. You've gained even more respect from me good sir.
Instantly lost all respect. Unsubbed and reported
@@Geeler lol. Lmao, even.
@@Geeler unsubbed and reported your mom.
@@Geelerso dramatic lol
@@vincentlopez2878 Heh. It's a joke kid.
I absolutely love this video because I’ve lived in this exact area of Florida for decades and grew up with the parks and a lot of these places !!! It’s really fun to have such a nostalgic video of them all, you wouldn’t believe how many there USED to be that you missed!
Edit: “I’d die for US-192” BRO NEVER THOUGHT ID HEAR THAT I CANT BREATHE
Is this how you make a date a tax write off as a business expense
Man Gatorland makes me nostalgic. It's the one tourist trap my family went to on our trip over there as a kid.
This video was really enjoyable, the amount of fun you and savannah were having made your energy infectious lol
Aww I feel kinda bad for the gator land gator who gets wrestled, that can’t be a nice experience for the gator :(
Maybe they pay him
Finally, another person who has actually gone to Dezerland. I went last time I was in Florida because it was aggressively advertised to me constantly, and finally I was like "fiNE, I'LL GO TO ORLANDO'S LARGEST AIR CONDITIONED ATTRACTION". It was basically completely empty, almost desolate. There were cars in boarded-up storefronts. Tiny knock-off Tron lightcycles meandered by. I thought I had gone to Floridian entertainment purgatory. It was like a fever dream. What an incredible space.
Dezerland is an experience, not one id call fun, but an experience nonetheless
I remember going there when I was a young kid, my sister and I went to the mini golf place and requested Adele lmao. We had forgotten what the place was called, just had this memory of mini golf and this video finally answered our question
I think there used to be a movie theatre in there as well?
@@swoopingisbad5617 yep it was an epic theatre i think it was called
You know a museum is gonna be good when they force you to watch an entire PBS documentary. Shout out to the Tennessee Williams museum in Key West for that same reason.
I’ve lived in orlando most of my life my school went on field trips to Gator land and Medieval times. These might be tourist traps but they have definitely added to Central florida as-well, Great video!
One of my favorite non-theme park places in Orlando to go is the Titanic exhibit that’s closed to Universal. They do themed first class dinners on Friday and Saturday nights and, for a while, were also doing Sunday afternoon tea services.
Hit the pen before you go inside 😂😂 man I love billiam
This reminds me of a book from the early 00s called Bollocks to Alton Towers. A look at tragically camp roadside attractions of the UK
I surely hope Billam didn’t get …….LOST in those tourist traps
He losened his way
I used to live in the motel at the Big Orange when my parents lost the house, and we had 3 weeks until we became destitute. Good times :)
Edit: Actually, this video was very nostalgic for me. Growing up in Kissimmee, Florida meant at least driving by a lot of these places rather frequently, pining out the window of the van as I beg to go to all these absurd tourist spots. We did end up going to a couple of them, like Old Town, Fun Spot, and I think Dinosaur Land? That might have been a fever dream. The late 2000s were a rough time for a lot of families, but there were some bright spots for me as a kid, even in the later months when we were practically homeless. Central Florida might be a cesspool of humidity, traffic, and mosquitoes, but it was my home.
These ‘concrete wonders’ were separate attractions for us when we went to Disneyworld when i was younger, like a checklist as we drove to Disney every morning. We never went in any but they’re weirdly near and dear to my heart
Coming out as a Florida Man was very brave & I hope you thrive, Billiam. Keep loving those mermaids & reptiles & manatees & being appalled at/charmed by (as applicable) by roadside attractions.
Right from the intro you can tell Billiam's absorbed all those Travel/Discovery channe shows, this feels right at home with them
Dinosaur World is a place we've been going to for ages, glad to see it given the spotlight
Briefly Dezerland was a shopping market called Artegon that had a ton of shops from small local artists and businesses. Miss it a lot, I only go to Dezerland now for the Cinemark in the building
I lived just down the street from the Walmart on 192 for 4 years (2016-2020) and worked at Disney/Universal. This video shockingly really made me miss my time in Florida. Thanks, Billiam
That being said, I never got to go to The Titanic Experience, but I always wanted to. I was hoping you'd make a stop there if it still exists 😭
"You could just hit the pen in the car before going in" so real for that
You forgot "Showcase of Citrus" along rt 27. Catch a ride on a giant monster truck through Citrus fields, pet exotic animals, and take a picture under a shark
Holy shit. That needs to be in a part 2 if it happens
Medieval Times is so great out there, we went on my daughter's MakeAWish trip and it was so fun! My daughter caught a rose also❤
I went to Medieval times during my New york trip in middle school. It was awesome! The colorful flags, the ambiance, the food, the music; everything was fun! Also, my class was with the Yellow knight. We scream for him during the play, encouraged him and even do a wave while we cheer. The best part? He wins and we took a picture with him 😀It was a nice souvenir!
