@@Yamas258yeah what both of these guys are saying? Ya know who visits Disney? They make so much money off selling wheelchairs to overweight people, this happens dozens of times a day
As someone has been on this ride numerous times, I Can also confirm that you are correct.. the heavier the people onboard, especially if they are in front, the larger the splash.. I guess it only makes sense!
These guys are all HEAVY, so the boat is way heavier and lower into the water than normal. As someone who’s went on splash mountain numerous times before it closed? This was in fact NOT a normal splash lmfao. Ask any cast member that works at Disney too, they’ll tell you the same.
The front of the ride gets submerged, and brings much water into the ride as the front pokes back up, with those in back getting the biggest splash, also. The guy plays it like nothing happened, when the camera is turned towards him, lol. No smile, laugh, nothing! 👍😄😄😄✌️
@@mychemicalromancewillpierc5241 💯, I aintt ever be been fully submerged. Couple people might get pants decent wet, but people acting like this level of submerged is the norm , when it’s the opposite
@@Yamas258 I mean I do seem to remember that bigger splashes would happen earlier in the rides lifetime, so though that may have been a combination of me being a tiny human (aka a child lmao) and the fact that I think rules may have been looser earlier in its lifetime. Later on, with the logs frequently having a problem of derailing, I believe they became stricter about weight limit.
Pro tip, put the biggest and heaviest person in your group in the very back, your next heaviest person in the very front, and your lightest person in the middle. That results in an extra big splash like you saw hear. It’s science!
When I was a kid Splash Mountain never did this. But more recently...yes...this is very normal. Last time I was on I had to wring out my socks because of all the water that got in. People are just very, very fat.
look at all of them, they are all stocky, heavy people. With all that weight of course they are going to displace a hell of a lot of water on impact with the pool below to the point it surges over them completely. Neither is this uncommon
Hi there!! Ride vehicles are affected by weight distribution, naturally! As anything is!! This can cause for even bigger dips on certain rides! Regardless it it literally called splash :/ dunno why the cameraman is upset like he diDNt ExPeCt iT or something.
IT WAS THE BEST RIDE! I live An Hour Away WAS annual pass holder's BUT IT TO COSTLY now. Have Good Meme & Great Photos! SAD SO SAD no more PLENTY OF SUNSHINE I see Gray Cloud Over WDW!
That WAS an epic splash. I wouldn’t call it fully submerged, but definitely bigger than usual for that ride. The guys in the front had to look back to make sure everyone else was also in shock
That happened to us once. It was late at night and no line at all. I remember three heavy set people getting on the first three spots. My dad isn’t a small guy either, then my sister and I who were both younger teens. I was in the very back and remember seeing the water engulf the flume exactly like this. I’ve been in the back and got drizzle before. I left the ride 100% covered in water and we called it a night
My kind of ride🥳🎉👏🏼🥳🎉👏🏼🥳🎉👏🏼Can’t get enough of water rides when it’s hot. That’s all we ever went on over here in Anaheims Disneyland. We kept going over and over & over again on ALL OF THEM WONDERFUL Water rides ☔️
USC night at Disneyland back in late 70’s. We went on Pirates of the Caribbean with a couple in front seat. Then my husband and I. Then 4 USC football players in the back together. The back bottomed out after each downhill part. The water poured directly into my lap. I was completely drenched. Couldn’t afford replacement clothes and my shoes went squish squish all night. When we got out they had to pull boat out of service there was so much water.
Wow. I worked there, still never went on Splash Mountain but I know this is the point and purpose of the ride. I've watched so many of these logs go full under water lol. Not a fluke, just the ride working.
It actually does not. I have been on the ride many times. You can also watch videos. As stated here, in the video we both just watched, the log was submerged in water. That doesn’t usually happen.
Here's how you do this: Put the biggest people in the front and rear seat as far front and far rear respectively you can and Disney will allow. If EVERYONE is big, even better then it weighs the whole log down. The point is to make sure that there is enough level stable weight during the whole drop that when the log hits the bottom curve, the bigger people weight in the front will more likely hit the bottom of the flume pushing water up over the log into it. As the back comes down it too does the same carrying the momentum from the front and into the back. As a bigger person I LOVE sitting in the front, cause I know we will get soaked, but I'm evil, I duck down so the water splashes past me.
I was on Splash Mountain with a bunch of guys in the 90's. We got swamped... because there was a ton of weight in that log. If you've got a bunch of big people, you're gonna get swamped.
He just happened to be the heaviest person in the back. Also I think this happened right around the time they were closing Splash for the retheme, so they turned up the water level as a last hurrah.
You’re right it’s a once in a lifetime for that family. It’s happened to my family once in our lifetime. Hope more you experience this on Tiana’s Bayou Adventure!
As a AVP holder at Disneyland 1989 to 2004, it has happened to my kids and myself about once every 15 rides. All it needs to make it happen is the two front passengers are very heavy as the bow will plunge deep into the water.
This exact thing happened to me and my family once before we all started bringing backpacks and throwing those into our Disney bags for waterproofing 😂
One time at the peak of one of these rides, the log at the bottom got jammed, and the one behind was going to rear end it after going down the the slope. My uncle and family with him had to hold on to the sides to not go down as the ride operator also held them back. My uncle tore a ligament in his elbow being the most capable to hold the ride. He won a lawsuit against Michigan adventure
Okay technically this is a log ride so there is no boat involved. Second of all the entire thing was not submerged under water it is on the track. Yes the water was a little higher than it should have been. But still it was not completely submerged under water. It was however surrounded by a very large splash of water.
We legit did this once too…our boat was probably over the weight limit and we were submerged. It was like jumping in a cold bath with all my clothes on…I didn’t have a dry spot on me. Had to immediately head back to the hotel to change.
That’s the whole point of the ride. It’s literally called SPLASH mountain
I know this person has not been to Disney or ever seen this ride
The point is that it’s never nearly this intense. Speds
Usually Splash Mountain does live up to its name, this was more of "Deluge Mountain".
This is Splash Mountain not DRENCHED Mountain 😂
It will be called Tianas Splash in a few more years!😮
"This once in a lifetime splash,"...that literally occurs multiple times per day. ffs
No it doesn’t , the extra weight gave it more impact and submerged and splashed a lot more . Jesus listen
Exactly, we are regulars and see it all the time.
@@Yamas258yeah what both of these guys are saying? Ya know who visits Disney? They make so much money off selling wheelchairs to overweight people, this happens dozens of times a day
Once in a life time?!?!? 😂 😂 💀 Happens all the time! 😂
Doesn’t happen anymore. Disney shut down the ride for stupid political reasons
They made it sound like the whole craft goes under. If they're mad about being wet, why would they get on a WATER RIDE?!
they arent mad they should know splash mountain is one of the wettest rides there, ive never been there and i know that.
Usually you do get soaked but the way it filled was more like insta filling a bath tub. A mini pool in the log.
This is why people wait hours to ride it during the hot summer.
No one is mad about getting wet you’re talking to no one 😂
😂😂 it’s like the old-school SeaWorld, you get the front row you get the water from the whales,😂😂
That was the best part.
Getting soaked, walking in the 110 heat, then riding space mountain.
Literally. My grandma took my cousins on a day it was like 90° and got SO MAD bc she didn't know they'd get wet 😂😂😂
The ride is basically telling y’all are fat 😂
😂
This happens all the time when the log is full of um.. 'heavy' people
As someone has been on this ride numerous times, I Can also confirm that you are correct.. the heavier the people onboard, especially if they are in front, the larger the splash.. I guess it only makes sense!
I'm sure this is Asiago why they have to balance out the boats so often when it was open lol
We can just call them "Americans". Potato, potatoe.
Haha my family's is all big, and we got soaked. The dots were connected 😅😅😅
We are allowed to say fat people 😂
The way everyone looks back at him specifically 💀
Welcome to America! 😂
Big people make loggy go down down.
😂😂
Looking around at my fellow americans reminds me of the movie Wally.
😂😂😂
LMAO!!
🤣
You sir are a genius 😂
See this ride was made back when people didn’t weigh 300 lbs.
facts
lol
😂😂😂truth
They’re not even big ppl tho they’re regular sized
LOL! true
*How Splash Mountain was really intended to work,* but never really made it to that point, until now. 😂
They actually got rid of it :(
thanks to obesity 😂
They r RETHEMING IT
@@lostgoyle3249No they didn’t they are just retheaming
@@masterchief3884 No need to self-hate.
“This ride gets submerged underwater”
*it’s a fucking splash*
No genius , it literally did submerge more than the norm. They were all overweight people .

You have loose idea on the term "submerged"

That’s the exact point of the ride- more so when the weight inside the boat is as high as it was for the large folks in the video.
I miss this ride so much.
It gone now it never the same
I agree, my daughter and I loved this ride together
I know 😔😞
What did they change it to? Is it still a water ride?
@@kingkvo5846 I'm not sure the new name, but it's gonna be fashioned after Princess and The Frog
i love how they all look at him
😂 like its his fault they are all wet. 😂
Something tells me there's a few people in that family that need to go on a diet lmao 😅😅😂
When your family weighs too much 😂
When I was a kid Splash Mountain never did this. But more recently...yes...this is very normal. Last time I was on I had to wring out my socks because of all the water that got in. People are just very, very fat.

This happened to me, but it was on that Dudley Do Right Ripsaw Falls ride at Universal
That happends when you have a heavy boat. This isn't a "once in a lifetime splash".
Well yea cause it’s splash mountain
I want splash mountain back
May God Let Splash Mountain Rest In Peace
😂
Their feet must have smelled so bad when they got home 😂
I like how everyone decides to look back at the camera guy as if he was the one who did it 👀😂😂😂😂

Hearing Brer Fox’s laugh is making me sad…
I miss Splash Mountain
IT WAS THE BEST RIDE!
I live An Hour Away WAS annual pass holder's BUT IT TO COSTLY now. Have Good Meme & Great Photos!
SAD SO SAD no more PLENTY OF SUNSHINE I see Gray Cloud Over WDW!
Im just glad they won't let me sit in the front 😅
That WAS an epic splash. I wouldn’t call it fully submerged, but definitely bigger than usual for that ride. The guys in the front had to look back to make sure everyone else was also in shock
My boys back the day would have been SOOOOOO jealous! If something thrilling happened like this, they loved being right in the middle of it!
😂 I definitely would have loved to been that soaked in any water ride
OH HELL NO....😂
That happened to us once. It was late at night and no line at all. I remember three heavy set people getting on the first three spots.

Growing up our log always did this bc my dad is a 6ft 200 lb fireman lol i always enjoyed it
Going to a "Splash" ride, and getting "Splashed", how very surprising?
Too many fat butts in the boat….imagine that….😊
Weight limit exceeded
This is literally how the ride works when you have 4 people on it?
Actually 6 people in it

Happened to me and my family. Our splash was a bit bigger. So much so Disney gave us all free clothes worth Hundreds of Dollars.
Completely submerged? Tell how our education system is failing.
bro forgot it’s called splash mountain 💀
RIP Splash Mountain. I'll never forgive Disney for removing one of their flagship and best rides at their parks.
Doesn't it even say "you will get wet but you may get soaked" or were those the Khali River Rapids
Lol... Khali River Rapids is Baby's First Raft Ride!
Worst. Water Ride. Ever.
Overweighted
i miss splash mountain at disney world
RIP splash mountain.
That is actually a huge splash for Splash Mountain.
Would have been hyped as shit, if something exiting happened to me at Disney
RIP Splash mountain we will remember u
Wow. I worked there, still never went on Splash Mountain but I know this is the point and purpose of the ride. I've watched so many of these logs go full under water lol. Not a fluke, just the ride working.
Can you say weight IMBALANCE
I'm pretty sure that happens to basically everybody who rides it, because that's the point of this ride.
Exactly. There’s a zero chance you would have come out of it dry
It actually does not. I have been on the ride many times. You can also watch videos. As stated here, in the video we both just watched, the log was submerged in water. That doesn’t usually happen.
Gotta love it when they over fill the ride for epic spashes

Well, that's what happens when you put the heavy hillbilly in your clan in the very front.
The grown man screaming at the fall😂😂😂
A once on a lifetime splash at splash mountain. Wow.😊
The reactions😂 “OHHHHHH”
The fact they all just turned to look at him 😂😂😂
Guys he knows, he’s not stupid, he’s comment fishing.
That's MY KIND OF SPLASH! I'm a mom, grandma, and great-grandma, but I STILL love rides. The scarier, the better, too. 😁
I'm one of those hot muggy days standing in lines this ride is a blessing
The Briar Rabbit ride, I've been on it.
Cool splash❤
RIP SPLASH MOUTAIN
good luck walking in soggy socks for the rest of your day at disney lol
😮🫢😄 splash mountain ride" true to its name"!! ❤
Tip for riding splash mountain; *Always bring spare clothes or spare socks*
Only if you go to Tokyo Disney. Doesn’t exist in US anymore.
That happened to me and my kids once 😂😂😂 so much fun lol
I was on Splash Mountain with a bunch of guys in the 90's. We got swamped... because there was a ton of weight in that log. If you've got a bunch of big people, you're gonna get swamped.
" yooo! My phone" 😂
I feel like they all looked at the biggest guy with eyes of death🤣🤣
The once in a lifetime splash that happens every time a cart goes round the track
The perfect splash for a hot summer day
The looks on the faces of the 2 kids in front looking back at the Dad in the back--"Was that normal?"😂.
He just happened to be the heaviest person in the back. Also I think this happened right around the time they were closing Splash for the retheme, so they turned up the water level as a last hurrah.
"You may get wet" RIP Splash Mountain 😪
LMAO I WOULD OF LOVED IT ❤
I've been on Splash Mt. many times, but I've never seen it soak people like that!
Ahahah NOBODY tell him that splash happens to somebody 14 times per minute😂
“Once and a lifetime” me remembering when I got fully soaked I had a rash the whole day…..those welts definitely make me remember that trip
Sounds like a reaction to the bromine in the water I presume? Not a common thing, but it can happen.
The people in the front looking back in disbelief are priceless 😂😂😂
"It was more of a wave than a splash, I'm suing!"
I dress accordingly at theme parks that have rides like this, and I go on them over and over lol.
You’re right it’s a once in a lifetime for that family. It’s happened to my family once in our lifetime. Hope more you experience this on Tiana’s Bayou Adventure!
Bob Iger said Tiana is a boring ride.

You’d never catch me with a $1000 pocket computer on a water ride.

Its sad that the ride gone now rip Splash Mountain. The BEST ride at Magic Kingdom imo.
That happens every ride.. 🤣 🤣 🤣
By your definition my car ends up entirely submerged under water every time I wash it.
The cussing killed me at the end
Okay technically this is a log ride so there is no boat involved. Second of all the entire thing was not submerged under water it is on the track. Yes the water was a little higher than it should have been. But still it was not completely submerged under water. It was however surrounded by a very large splash of water.
In Tokyo, our mountain splash is more reserved 😅
Average Citizen: Look at that guy on the ride.

Now they are going to smell for the rest of the day 😂
