Hey, great video, but wanted to make 2 nit picky corrections. I’m a engineer in Florida and design storm ponds for a living. According to the water management districts that regulate storm water a retention pond is a dry pond and a detention pond is a wet pond. Retention/detention has to do with the water quality volume of the pond. A dry pond “retains” the water quality volume and infiltrates it into the ground. A wet pond “detains” the water and slowly lets it out through a pipe. The wet portion of a detention pond is just the groundwater thats exposed by removing the dirt. Also you mentioned that ponds can connect to a sewer system, but it is illegal for a storm water pond to connect to a sanitary sewer system. Many years ago this type of connection was possible, but through the EPA’s Clean Water Act those type of sysems have been phased out. These are super nit picky details that would only mater to an engineer, but you seem so detail oriented in all your videos thought I’d pass this along. Again great video, thanks for all your hard work!
“Are you going to pay attention to a pond along the side of the road?” It’s FL. If I’m in the passenger seat, I’m paying attention. There could be gators over there, and since that’s not typically something I see every day, I’m looking.
Someone needs to tell Ursula that she already has enough bodies down there. I can’t stop thinking about all of those poor and unfortunate souls, in pain, in need!
Retention ponds are not about flood control and are about retaining water on the land so that it can filter into the aquifer below. If it was allowed to run off, then the aquifer would run dry and sinkholes would be a SERIOUS problem across Central Florida (more than now). For every square yard of concrete, you cover the soil with, you have to have so many cubic yards of retention capacity.
Can you do a video on all the odd and strange animals found around DisneyWorld? Not sure if they were someone’s pets that got out or what the deal was but when we had breakfast at Fort Wilderness back in 2013 there were 2 monkeys that looked like Marcel from friends (capuchin monkeys) walking across the road right in front of Trails End Restaurant. With my best dad joke at the time I told my son to look because we must be eating at the Tails End restaurant. He just shook his head in disapproval like most kids do after an amazing dad joke and told me to stop monkeying around lol I couldn’t have been more proud at that moment. Fittingly ever since that day our family refers to that restaurant as the Tails End.
Tune in next week to discover which of the vessels operated on the Disney World waterbodies are ships, and which are boats. :-) Thanks for another delightful video Rob.
The production values on your videos just keeps getting better and better. This looks like something you’d watch on the Magical Express on the way to the parks. Great work!
I'm surprised you didn't delve into the water management portions. Like how when the property was initially prepared, all the storm water control systems were passive / unpowered or use footage from an old epcot magazine where they did a small amount of filming from the rcid command and control center
Hey Rob, since The Mighty Ducks are coming back, you should do a video about Disney and the Anaheim sports market. Walt Disney was involved with the Hollywood Stars and Anaheim Angels baseball teams. And of course Disney getting in the NHL with the Ducks. And how it was all used to make Anaheim a vacation destination
Hey rob. i've been binging your content for a few weeks now, and i'm running out of video. I've already watched your entire Q&A series and I want you to bring it back
Now that we know about the waterways I'll ask this: How Large Is Disney World's "Navy?" How many boats are in the fleet not necessarily including water ride vehicles, but adding that number would be interesting too.
Great video Rob! From what I could put together from this video, once a body of water like a ditch or borrow gets traffic on it, it moves to a higher classification. A ditch becomes a (closed circuit) canal, a borrow becomes a lake, etc.
I don't know about other bodies, but I learned recently that RCID has (some) control over the level of the water in the World Showcase Lagoon / Crescent Lake / canal that leads to Hollywood Studios. For example, when they're expecting a large rain storm, they drain much of the water to accommodate runoff from the park and surrounding areas. Only problem being is if it doesn't rain as much as they thought, the water level stays low for a while since it's harder to fill than to drain.
I wish Midway to Main Street would cover a question that popped in my head...”Why did Victoria and Alberts end up in Disney World? A five star restaurant that at Disney?
Also, idea for another video not sure if you ever heard of the GM future liner and general motors parade of progress that ran from 1939 until the mid 1940's. Futuristic concept trucks that transformed into stages with displays that would visit small towns across America during their state fairs and other events, showcasing advances in technology and most specifically what GM and Chevrolet was doing for you.
I'd be curious to know when it comes to making sure Magic Kingdom for example runs smoothly day to day who behind the scenes has the most stressful jobs... If there is already a video on this let me know! I love this channel so much!
I really like a lot of the B-roll that you took for this. What camera do you typically shoot on, and do you do any stabilization of your shots in post?
As always great video! Now that we have water bodies and drainage, previous videos such as garbage/waste disposal I'm genuinely interested in how many vehicles does Disney own? Who maintains them? What about the Reedy Creek Fire department? What interesting and unique equipment would they have for "Disney level emergencies"?
Never really thought about this but now that you took the time to research I find it really interesting! Love all the great info that you gather! Keep it up! 👍
Love to "geek out" on some Rob. Yes! I dooo think of bodies of water. Being from Houston, TX. ((Bayou City) I'm 3/10th mile from Simms Bayou. Remember Hurricane Harvey 2017??? While "my bayou" was 12 ft. from over topping (Thank God was widen & deepened) A sudden "frog chocker" can send your car a flooding. Even in Nov. I've experienced a shower or 2 in Fla. Don't get me started on ditches. Remember scene one in Driving Miss Daisey? The water ways @ any Dis theme park is a marvel to behold! BTW I used rain water for "closet flush" after Houston's Winter Storm. Yeah! calculating how much water per flush. OyyyyveYYY!!!
Rob, I'd suggest you make a public records request of RCID to see if they have a document that defines how they classify bodies of water in the District. You got me curious, man! 😅
As a kid, we were taught that a pond becomes a lake when it's big enough to navigate mechanically (or go water skiing). My question related to that, when does a boat become a ship?
@@SaturnCanuck yeah i forget how much it cost. I rode in one in a lake by my house years ago the best part was when going in and out of the water and funny looks from people haha
how much of the water is emergency water for fire (here in the UK most big places are based around "lakes" which are mainly there just in case of fire) so they are carefully places.
Don't quoat me on that though I'm just guessing, maybe there is something like that in large forrrests. Look at Florida on Google earth its a lot of water. 57 lakes in the city limits of Orlando and thats just in the city! I live on a big chain of lakes behind Disney called the butler chain.

Now THIS is the type of question I can rely on Rob to answer!
“Are you going to pay attention to a pond along the side of the road?” It’s FL. If I’m in the passenger seat, I’m paying attention. There could be gators over there, and since that’s not typically something I see every day, I’m looking.
The b-roll choice at 2:30 made me laugh out loud.
Hah! 100%
30 seconds in, and I’m like, “Yes, I really do think about this!!” I’m so in! Let’s do this!
Not gonna lie... when this popped up I thought the title was “How Many Bodies are in the Water at Walt Disney World” lololololol.
the answer may surprise you
Same, I was like damn, Midway to a dark turn with their content lol.
Oh lord I thought the same!!
Same. Lol
Someone needs to tell Ursula that she already has enough bodies down there. I can’t stop thinking about all of those poor and unfortunate souls, in pain, in need!
Do a video on the islands in WDW. Some don't have names on Google maps. Does Disney have names for them? If so, what's their names?
You're like the Wendover Productions of Disney Parks and I love it.

Dry ponds, or as they are also called... holes.
The production values on your videos just keeps getting better and better. This looks like something you’d watch on the Magical Express on the way to the parks. Great work!
Just find a friend with a big van, install some screens and viola! you've got a replacement for the DME people would pay for!
@@jackprather3471 😂 Not a bad idea!
Whoa for a moment I thought how many bodies are in the water at Disney ... Mobsters alert !
Same here! I read it backwards
Literally thought the same thing lololololol.
I'm surprised you didn't delve into the water management portions.
Like how when the property was initially prepared, all the storm water control systems were passive / unpowered or use footage from an old epcot magazine where they did a small amount of filming from the rcid command and control center
love watchin rob talk about the obscure stuff, stuff that I think about.

Cool! Now taste test them
Well, now I know the difference between a retention and detention pond. Thanks Rob!
I like how many are connected i thought you would show more of that. Boats are a fun mode of transportation!
I’ve been looking for this video FOREVER
I don't know about other bodies, but I learned recently that RCID has (some) control over the level of the water in the World Showcase Lagoon / Crescent Lake / canal that leads to Hollywood Studios.

This is EXACTLY why I subscribed lol this is so interesting. Thanks!
i have ALWAYS wondered about all those bodies of water, why else would i be watching this awesome video.
this is the disney content i need
I wish Midway to Main Street would cover a question that popped in my head...”Why did Victoria and Alberts end up in Disney World? A five star restaurant that at Disney?
I know Rob did a video on the hotels and has mentioned the Grand Floridian before but wow, that restaurant does seem pretty fancy for Florida!
@@krissp8712 there is tons of fancy restaurants in Florida
@Rob Yeah and that's just in Disney there is a lot of rich people that live and come to Florida
Now this is what Rob does best
I misread this as, "how many bodies in the water". O_0
Finally, the answer to the question I didn't know I had
Also, idea for another video not sure if you ever heard of the GM future liner and general motors parade of progress that ran from 1939 until the mid 1940's.

I read it normally what’s wrong with you people
This is channel is amazing. I learn something awesome on each video. Thanks Rob ✌🏻
I really like a lot of the B-roll that you took for this. What camera do you typically shoot on, and do you do any stabilization of your shots in post?
The legendary Poseidon. You’re one of my favorite channels. Cool to see you in the comments
They day you posted this I was asking myself the same thing! What a coincidence.
As always great video! Now that we have water bodies and drainage, previous videos such as garbage/waste disposal I'm genuinely interested in how many vehicles does Disney own? Who maintains them?

This would’ve been a great April Fools video to. Just say a number and nothing else lol

Lots, and lots, and lots of... WATER!!!!!!
I think the water bodies at WDW are so charming
Very cool!! Loved it!!
ill never look at another body of water the same. Thank You
I love this sort of stuff! Well done.
Rob, I'd suggest you make a public records request of RCID to see if they have a document that defines how they classify bodies of water in the District. You got me curious, man! 😅
All-star Movies to Detention Ponds: "You had one job!!!"
As a kid, we were taught that a pond becomes a lake when it's big enough to navigate mechanically (or go water skiing). My question related to that, when does a boat become a ship?
Um. Excuse me?!? I think about them all the time. We don't have water in the mid-Atlantic
I have actually though about this 😂😂 thank god you make these videos
Very informative video thank you
I’ve never even been to WDW and I’m very interested
More content! Soooo good
I liked for the "fluid" pun
Thanks.
Well, you gotta count all the guest and cast members too. We *are* made of mostly water after all 😀
The real question is how many of those bodies of water permit fishing.
lol. sits on a swamp!!! lol
Rip little Timmy who went into the not so magical water
Does disney have its own clean water production site and do they own the sewage process site?
I would have ended with ..... afloat. Anyway, nice video Rob. Who's Amphicar was that?
That's at Disney spring's you can ride in them there
@@magiccheeseball No way. Awesome
@@SaturnCanuck yeah i forget how much it cost. I rode in one in a lake by my house years ago the best part was when going in and out of the water and funny looks from people haha
how much of the water is emergency water for fire (here in the UK most big places are based around "lakes" which are mainly there just in case of fire) so they are carefully places.
None there is no shortage of water here.there is no specific water body designated for fire use
Don't quoat me on that though I'm just guessing, maybe there is something like that in large forrrests. Look at Florida on Google earth its a lot of water. 57 lakes in the city limits of Orlando and thats just in the city! I live on a big chain of lakes behind Disney called the butler chain.
This video could be used to teach the concept of percentages
How man toilets 🚽 do they have?
When did yesterworld change thaer name to this
Last time I checked there were only a couple of bodies in the water
thanks for the info. here's a comment for the algorithm
TLDR: A LOT
*Should be another great video!
We're dark Minded lol
The first 3 words I read How many bodies 💀
...erg...just read the title of this vid as “How many bodies are in the water of Disney World?”.......TWIST!!......
Misread the title: How Many Bodies are at Disneyworld.
I read this title wrong
