Splash Mountain
Welcome to
Splash Mountain! You MAY get wet! This ride, based on Disney's 1946
film "Song of the South" takes you through the story of Brer Rabbit and
Brer Bear. The ride boasts 103 audio animatronic figures (many of which
appeared in the Tomorrowland attraction
America Sings).
The flume-style ride features one of the tallest and sharpest flume drops
in the world. Be aware, if you are sitting in the front, you WILL get
wet! Similar attractions have opened in Disney World's Magic Kingdom and
Tokyo Disneyland. The attraction, designed by Imagineer Tony Baxter, was,
in part, a homage to the late Marc Davis. Characters from the closed
attraction "America Sings" took up new residence here, and several ideas
for Splash Mountain were concepts explored during the planning of Marc
Davis's Western River Expedition (a highly detailed water ride that was to
be built for Disney World). Video of the queue and the ride itself is
available below, along with music and songs from the attraction. Songs
featured in the attraction are, "Everybody's got a Laughing Place", "How
do you do?" and the unforgettable "Zip-a-dee-doo-dah".
