My Final Ride EVER On Liberty Belle Riverboat - Disney World Closes A Classic / 50 Years Of Memories
Goodbye Liberty Belle Riverboat
Transcript
0:03
Welcome everyone. Adam the Woo here. As
0:03
the recording of this Thursday, June the
0:05
12th,
0:07
2025, I'm about to head over to Magic
0:10
Kingdom where I will be taking my last
0:15
spin
0:17
around the Rivers of America. The river
0:19
boat, the Liberty Bell, opened a year
0:22
before I was born. It opened in 1973.
0:26
Disney World, Magic Kingdom being the
0:28
only park when it opened in 71. Couple
0:31
years later, they brought the river
0:33
boat. So, my entire life, my entire
0:37
existence,
0:39
that boat has been going around the
0:41
Rivers of America, around Tom Sawyer
0:43
Island, past the mansion, what is now
0:48
Tiana's Bayou Adventure, the area that
0:50
is now Big Thunder Mountain. seen some
0:54
changes over the years. The landscape
0:55
and a massive landscape is coming. This
1:00
will be the last time I will be going on
1:03
that river boat. My first visit to the
1:07
Disney parks. Parents brought me to
1:10
Florida. We weren't living here at the
1:12
time in the late '7s. I was only a few
1:14
years old. And ever since then, it has
1:17
been an attraction that I've always gone
1:19
on. don't really go to the island as
1:22
much, but the boat is something almost
1:25
every time I'm there. You can always
1:26
find me on the boat going around the
1:29
rivers.
1:30
And this is my last day. I'm inviting
1:32
you to join me. Shall you? Now, I'm a
1:35
few miles from MK, but the temperature
1:37
over there is pretty close to where it
1:39
is here in Celebration. 81 degrees. It's
1:41
9:22 right now. It feels a lot warmer
1:44
than that, the humidity.
1:46
And I'll probably do more than one lap.
1:48
I'll probably do a couple laps and this
1:50
video might be long and drawn out. There
1:53
might be some really lengthy, organic,
1:56
no talking shots in this, so expect a
2:00
longer video. This is my last time and I
2:02
kind of want to document the boat
2:03
experience for posterity. Looks like
2:05
it's going to be a nice day. Might be
2:07
some rain later. It's also going to go
2:08
up 10°. It's 81 now, but it's going to
2:11
be 90 in a few hours. Going to get warm.
2:13
Going to get warm.
2:19
Now it's on the opposite rail, but you
2:19
can still kind of see it.
2:25
That was a Montreal.
2:25
It's a nice little thing to see to make
2:27
you happy as you're pulling into Magic
2:30
Kingdom. Right, Big the Foot. There's
2:31
quite a few cars here. I think the park
2:34
opened at 9:00, so it's only what 37
2:37
minutes past rope drop.
2:43
Wonder how the Starbucks on Main
2:44
Street's looking. They're doing a brief
2:46
consulting of the interwebs, which some
2:48
stuff on the interwebs is true, some
2:50
stuff's not, but
2:52
seems as if there was an original boat
2:55
that I didn't know about that did open
2:57
in 71. That one was destroyed in an
3:00
accident and then another one popped up
3:03
in 73 and was renamed into the Liberty
3:06
Bell. It was originally called the
3:08
Admiral Joe Fowler and his name can be
3:10
seen on the ferry boat going over to MK.
3:13
Wow, am opting to walk instead of taking
3:16
the tram. It's not that far. Okay, so to
3:19
confirm, originally the first river boat
3:21
in 71 was the Richard F. Irvine. Again,
3:24
now the Irvine is the ferry boat that
3:26
takes you across. That one was
3:28
destroyed. And then the Joe Fowler,
3:30
which has also
3:32
been named for one of the ferry boats
3:35
going over across seven seas,
3:38
that became in 73, the boat we now know
3:42
as the Liberty Bell. Evidently, since
3:44
the mid90s, the Irvine has been called
3:48
what it is currently,
3:54
the Liberty Bell. So since the '9s, I've
3:54
known it as that. For some reason, I
3:56
just thought it was always called that.
3:59
my younger years, I wasn't paying
4:00
attention to names as much. But either
4:03
way, the boat that's currently running
4:05
that I will be taking my last lap around
4:08
the Rivers of America on is the same one
4:10
that I've been on my entire life. Born
4:12
in 74. The boat started, current boat
4:16
that's running now, even though it's
4:17
been renamed. Been going since 73.
4:21
My whole life. My whole life. When I
4:24
think of Disney World and Magic Kingdom,
4:27
I think of that boat.
4:34
What would I do if they got rid of the
4:34
Montreal? That would be that would be
4:36
something, huh? And to be completely
4:38
honest, it not really got a I don't have
4:41
an uproar about it. It's not a really a
4:43
huge issue. It's not a life-changing
4:45
thing for me. I've gotten used I've
4:48
gotten used to to changes here and
4:50
certain things that I really enjoy going
4:52
away and this is just one of many. I'm
4:56
kind of used to it. It's not that big of
4:57
a deal. Saying I won't miss it cuz I
4:59
will. It's going to be an odd change not
5:02
having it back there, but I'm not going
5:04
to lose any sleep over it and it's not
5:06
going to stop me from coming here. I
5:08
still have fun.
5:10
Whatever they bring, whatever they bring
5:12
to the table, I'm here for it. I mean, I
5:14
live here. I live a couple miles from
5:16
here. So,
5:19
bring on the changes
5:21
and remember the past.
5:24
I'm a very nostalgic person, but again,
5:27
I'm used to change. What What's the
5:28
Princess Bride quote? Dread Pirate
5:30
Roberts. Get used to disappointment.
5:33
This is working out pretty good. I'm
5:34
going to guess that is the Admiral Joe
5:36
Fowler going across seven seas. And I am
5:38
going on the original name of the river
5:42
boat, now the ferry boat. Richard F.
5:44
Urbine. That was the original name of
5:47
the Liberty Bell, but now the name right
5:50
here. All right, leaving the mainland
5:52
and going over to Magic Kingdom. The
5:55
Kingdom of Magic
5:58
with the current guide map. It's still
6:00
on there. Now, the reason I'm doing this
6:02
now is I'm leaving the country soon. I
6:04
will not be here on the final day. And
6:07
at the time, it is 10:25.
6:11
should be able to get over there for the
6:12
first launch of the day, which is at 700
6:17
a.m. says right or sorry, it closes at
6:19
7:00 p.m., but at 11:00 a.m. it opens.
6:21
So, I should be able to get on the first
6:23
boat, not stay until close. I'm going to
6:24
do a ride or two. The last day to
6:26
experience the Liberty Square River
6:28
Liberty Square River Boat is July 6th.
6:31
The attraction and Rivers of America
6:33
will close permanently on July 7th to
6:36
make way for the largest expansion in
6:38
history of Magic Kingdom.
6:45
Yeah, this thing's going to be history.
6:45
Largest expansion. What lies behind Big
6:47
Thunder Mountain in the cars area in
6:50
front of Big Thunder, behind Big
6:52
Thunder.
6:54
That boat's going to be history. This is
6:55
my It's kind of weird to think this is
6:57
going to be my last time on it. Perfect
6:59
timing as the first one pulls up for the
7:01
day. Got my piping hot caffeinated
7:03
beverage. And I will say this thing is
7:05
toasty. Nice ride around the Rivers of
7:07
America with a large coffee. A venty
7:09
coffee if you will. Don't mind if I do.
7:12
All right, they're opening up the gates.
7:13
Put the ramp down. The difference
7:15
between this one and one at Disneyland,
7:16
which is the Mark Twain, is you board on
7:19
the bottom and exit on the bottom. Here
7:21
you exit on the bottom. You board on the
7:23
middle section. I don't know if I'm
7:25
going to stand up at the top simply
7:26
because the heat is permeating out here.
7:28
This humidity is is out of control. Even
7:32
though if I'm on the middle section, the
7:34
humidity will probably be just as
7:35
intense. But at least I'd be out of the
7:36
sun.
7:38
My last ride. I'm over 50 years old. And
7:42
this is the boat I've ridden on every
7:43
single time going around rivers. This
7:45
will be my last ride.
7:51
Kind of wild to think about, honestly.
7:51
It's definitely going to be an unusual
7:54
weird
7:59
an unusually different kind of sight
8:01
line.
8:03
I see in this boat sitting here. I
8:05
always like watching the wheel just spin
8:07
around.
8:12
Give me that bell. Give me that bell.
8:16
The Liberty Bell. Nice peaceful ride
8:20
around the rivers of America. 50 years
8:22
of memories on this thing. Even though
8:24
my younger years, I probably didn't
8:25
remember the first few years. So,
8:27
probably more like 40 years of memories.
8:29
Probably the last four decades. I
8:31
remember cruising around on this thing.
8:33
The first 10 years of my life, even the
8:35
first visit in the late '7s, probably
8:37
can't really can't really recall too
8:40
much of being on this thing. I mean,
8:42
I've seen pictures of things like that,
8:44
but can't really recall personally. Look
8:47
at that. You got a former Splash
8:48
Mountain dropping in over there. Tiana's
8:50
Bayou Adventure. Ah,
8:55
soothing sounds. I think that's going to
8:58
be one of the big things, too, is not
8:59
hearing that steam whistle all the way
9:01
across the park. That's going to be a
9:03
That's going to be a big one.
9:06
Sometimes it's not even being on an
9:07
attraction. It's just hearing it and
9:09
seeing it that creates the vibe. The
9:12
little double-decker views of Frontier
9:14
Land off in the distance. probably won't
9:16
get this when they have the new uh the
9:17
new cars speed or whatever they're
9:19
calling it. They announced the name of
9:21
it and I honestly I didn't really recall
9:23
what the name of the cars area is going
9:25
to be, but there's going to be two cars
9:27
Pixar Cars attractions right exactly
9:30
where this boat is going around now. In
9:32
the future, it'll probably take a couple
9:33
two or three years, a few years for them
9:36
to build that. It'll take a while. It'll
9:37
take a while. Watch this one drop in
9:39
here. Watch this log drop in.
10:11
feeling that a lot of the terrain is
10:11
going to look exactly like that in the
10:13
future. It's going to have that
10:15
mountainy deserty type of look, but from
10:18
the concept arts, there are going to be
10:19
some water elements as well.
10:24
I haven't studied it in great detail,
10:26
but
10:27
as time goes on, see the construction
10:30
walls will go up when I return from
10:33
international travel. That's the reason
10:35
I'm not going to be here closer to the
10:38
end of this attraction.
10:40
When I get back, a lot of walls will be
10:42
up, I'm sure, and the boat will be
10:43
removed.
11:21
Raccoon Point
11:21
soon to be a thing of the past.
11:31
What do you think of your first ride on
11:33
this? This is awesome. I love it. Maybe
11:36
your first and possibly last ride. Last.
11:38
Yeah.
11:45
This is my probably my thousandth ride
11:45
on this thing.
11:47
50 years of this.
11:54
I mean, that's 20 times a year. One and
11:54
a half times a month. Yeah. I've
11:56
probably been on this a thousand times.
11:58
That's pretty ridiculous when I uh when
12:00
I do the math on it.
12:09
Friendly old guy doing some fishing and
12:09
his pet dog and gator are going to be
12:12
removed as well. Alligator swamp will
12:14
eventually become part of villains life.
12:16
Well, this will be cars cars area, but
12:18
there's a gator down there. where
12:20
they're going to relocate that uh that
12:22
animatronic gator and these
12:24
non-animatronic deer. Well, the ears
12:26
move things.
12:29
Cheers.
12:31
Cheers to you, river boats. One last
12:35
ride.
12:52
around the riverbend. It's a sharp turn.
12:52
Actually notice how sharp this turn was.
12:56
Said there's nobody up there driving the
12:58
top up there. Sometimes they'll let
12:59
guests up there. I've been lucky enough
13:01
to do that. I think once here and a
13:03
couple times over at Disneyland on the
13:05
march, but the party's almost over here.
13:08
In fact, the party guys are having the
13:10
party over here at this cave. They're
13:13
going to have to keep hooting and
13:14
hollering for a couple more weeks. And
13:16
after that, I don't know where the
13:18
party's going to be. Mostly like this
13:19
little area in here that you can get out
13:20
of the elements. These little seats in
13:23
here, photographs,
13:25
old artwork, things like that. Look, is
13:27
that a mcguffrey reader? A look at this.
13:29
There is some artwork there of a river
13:31
boat. I'm not sure if that's the
13:33
specific one, but given the general idea
13:36
of the river boats,
13:47
Leadman
14:28
Welcome back to Liberty Square. At this
14:31
time, please gather all of your personal
14:34
and take small
14:36
as you make your way to the lower deck
14:38
to exit. The lower deck has one and only
14:42
exit on the river boat. So you will need
15:01
right there was round one on the Liberty
15:01
Bell. I might do a couple other things
15:02
and then maybe do one more before
15:05
leaving for the day. But everyone's
15:07
starting to exit and just kind of
15:08
walking around the empty top portion
15:11
here.
15:18
Just the sight lines won't be the same.
15:18
You won't be able to stand here and look
15:19
at the mansion. Obviously, we'll not be
15:21
able to stand here and look over at Tom
15:23
Story's Island as well. Even though I
15:26
think part of the island's staying part
15:28
of it leaving, part of it staying. But
15:34
wait a second.
15:34
I know you. You're one of the You're one
15:37
of the Goonies.
15:40
What do you think about this thing
15:41
leaving? Are you sad? Uh, not as much,
15:43
but I'm sad. I'm sad. I'm always just
15:46
sad for nostalgia. Exactly. That's how I
15:48
am. But I've gotten used to things going
15:50
away. So, there's other things I was
15:52
more sad about. Yeah. I think if they
15:54
parked it somewhere, I'd be happy. Yeah.
15:56
Just so I can come on to it cuz I love
15:57
the old stuff. I love to just touch it.
16:00
Yeah. It's going to be weird. Something
16:03
I didn't realize. You do not have to
16:05
exit the boat. Cast member said, "Do you
16:08
want to stay on?" I said, "Yes, I'd love
16:10
to stay on for one more round without
16:12
having going to the exit and walking
16:14
back up to the top. So, I'll do my
16:16
second ride." And it gave me a chance to
16:18
walk around up here while everyone's
16:20
boarding. Get a nice little view here of
16:23
the front as well. And I got a little
16:27
kind of a gander down at the empty front
16:30
portion down here. Yeah. What are they
16:32
going to do with this boat? You think
16:33
it's going to end up in a dumpster
16:34
somewhere? Probably. All right. Round
16:37
two. At any moment, the bell should be
16:40
ringing and the smoke stack, the steam
16:42
stack should be illuminating right over
16:46
here. You also got to watch out for this
16:48
steam stack.
16:54
Nailed it. You got to watch out for this
16:56
other steam stack because the dripping
16:59
hot water, if you're not wearing a cap,
17:01
will boil the top of your head.
17:03
something you will not have to worry
17:05
about after July 6th. Oh, fireworks
17:08
happening or the pyro happening over
17:10
there at the at the castella castle.
17:13
Well, there it goes. So, there just even
17:16
the sights, the sounds, maybe not the
17:19
smell so much. Can't really smell steam,
17:21
but the the soothing the soothing sights
17:24
and sound. The river boat soon to be
17:28
erased
17:29
from existence.
17:33
Oh yeah, that right there. Sorry, that
17:35
thing right there. Oh, that's dripping
17:36
on me. That's That's warm. Didn't even
17:37
realize it at first. Kevin pointed out
17:39
that I am wearing cars
17:42
on my shirt. I didn't mean to. I didn't
17:46
mean to to I didn't mean to drive the
17:48
point home that the cars attracted. Now
17:50
it's not Pixar cars.
17:53
Jim's filming me from the side over
17:55
there. I'm cheersing them. You'd think I
17:56
would have finished this coffee by now,
17:57
but I'm savoring the flavor just like
17:59
I'm savoring this last ride today. All
18:03
right, Kyle is here and I got to meet
18:05
Kyle's dad. This is going to be your
18:07
last ride on the river boat. Yeah, a
18:09
little cheery eye, but last ride. Going
18:11
to be fun. Are you going to miss it? Are
18:13
you going to Are you How on a scale of 1
18:15
to 10, how disappointed are you that
18:17
it's going away? Five. That's kind of
18:19
where I am. Sitting at about a five. On
18:22
with the future.
18:24
What about you, Kyle? What do you think?
18:26
On to the future. I can't wait for cars,
18:28
honestly. I can't wait. It looks so
18:30
cool. I know a lot of people are upset,
18:32
but it's really hard to like keep
18:34
everybody calm and excited about the
18:35
future while they're getting rid of
18:37
something so awesome for a lot of
18:38
people, you know? Yeah, I've been riding
18:40
this my entire life, 50 years. It opened
18:42
in 73. I was born in 74. But I am
18:46
excited about Villains Land, which is
18:48
going to be right over here. And you got
18:50
to have a walkway to get to it. So, I'm
18:52
going to miss this guy, though, with his
18:54
dog and his fish. fish. Yeah. And the
18:55
gator down here. Good running India. All
18:58
right. Enjoy your enjoy your last ride.
19:00
And you'll probably you'll probably be
19:02
here on the last last enjoy your last
19:04
ride. Thank you. I wonder you think the
19:06
Indian village will stay over there cuz
19:08
all this area is going to be completely
19:10
changed a lot of different ways. I don't
19:14
really know what's staying, what's
19:16
leaving. The walls are going to be
19:17
coming up soon. Sooner sooner than
19:21
later. Nothing's getting in my eye.
19:30
They are in there hooting and hollering.
19:30
They even put their laundry out. They
19:31
got their laundry out on the line over
19:33
there as well. Having a little good old
19:36
time.
19:38
The soothing sounds of steam.
19:42
Got to watch your eye up there. It drips
19:44
in your eye.
19:47
That sun right here. Probably should
19:48
have sunglasses on, but
20:06
Yeah, definitely going to miss those
20:06
sounds. And you can hear this boat all
20:09
across Magic Kingdom. And that is
20:11
something that's really going to be
20:13
different is not hearing the sounds of
20:17
the steam engine whistle. Well, the
20:19
steam whistle
20:21
tooting out the top there. Still have
20:23
the train which is the same sort of
20:25
functionality, but will not have the
20:28
steam coming out of the top of the the
20:30
river boat going around Rivers of
20:32
America, which is going to change the
20:35
change the vibe and the the mood of the
20:37
park in a lot of ways.
20:40
But as many have stated,
20:43
myself included,
20:45
I am looking forward to the future,
20:49
and I'm glad they're not changing this
20:50
at Disneyland.
20:53
Really glad they're not changing it.
20:55
That would be that would suck. I mean,
20:58
this is a this is a bummer, but that
21:00
would that would definitely be a worst
21:01
case scenario. I don't feel like they'll
21:03
ever change that. I think that's a
21:05
little more sacred ground than the
21:08
secondary recreation version of Royy's.
21:13
This will be my last time waving. I
21:16
always do the wave thing here. It's
21:17
always interesting if I was on land and
21:19
I was waving at the guests over there.
21:21
It would be awkward. But because I'm
21:23
separated by water, I've stated this
21:26
dozens of times riding on this ride,
21:28
riding on this attraction, and now this
21:30
will be my last time doing a non awkward
21:32
wave and having people wave back because
21:35
if it's if you're separated by a few
21:36
feet of water, waving etiquette says
21:39
that it's not awkward to wave and wave
21:42
back at someone. Also, will this stay?
21:45
Will that go?
21:48
all these all these sight lines will not
21:51
be able to see unless the peak the car's
21:53
peak that's going to be up here has some
21:55
sort of lookout which is highly
21:58
doubtful.
21:59
So that's it. My last ride
22:02
on the river boat, the Liberty Bell,
22:06
formerly the Richard F. Irvine. This
22:09
boat started running in 73 when the
22:11
other one that was two years prior had a
22:14
crash of some sort
22:17
which was the Admiral Joe Fowler and
22:19
then the Richard F. Irvine which is this
22:21
later renamed in 96 if I was reading
22:24
that information correctly.
22:32
Now the Liberty Bell.
22:32
RIP.
22:34
RIP Disney history.
22:40
Ah,
22:40
what are you going to do?
22:47
I lost so many things in the in the
22:47
parks over the years. It's really hard
22:48
to get
22:50
It's really hard to kind of lose my mind
22:52
and get extremely bummed out and try to
22:57
latch myself on. I'm not going to come
22:58
over here and lash myself onto this and
23:00
have to them have to drag me off for the
23:02
memories. Getting rid of Great Movie
23:04
Ride at MGM Studios. Getting rid of MGM
23:07
Studios in general and the the Backlot
23:09
tram tour and of course Streets of
23:12
America, Great Movie Ride, all that.
23:14
Getting rid of all that. That was really
23:15
the uh the icing on the cake. And I kind
23:17
of realized at that point it's it's time
23:18
to move on. All right, change of plans.
23:20
I'm staying on one. I figure, you know
23:21
what? I'm already here. I might as well
23:22
do a third. Third time's a charm. And I
23:25
figure I'll just uh go ahead and go on
23:27
this one more time. So staying on. I do
23:30
not have to exit both times. I'm doing
23:32
ready to do my third ride. Third and
23:33
final ride of a lifetime.
23:38
We're just saying that sounds the flag
23:40
waving in the breeze there.
23:51
Trying to get the uh the view here once
23:51
again of the
23:54
effervescent steam about to go. But look
23:57
at this. Look at this right here. Look
23:58
at the dripping of this right there.
24:01
Look at the uh
24:16
It's a beautiful sound. Beautiful sound.
24:16
You see how the wheels go a couple
24:18
different directions? It's going one way
24:21
and now it's going to shift and go the
24:23
other way and push forward. At any
24:26
moment this will be starting. Well, you
24:28
know what? Maybe not. Maybe it's just uh
24:29
maybe it's not going to push forward.
24:31
Maybe it's deep water.
24:35
All right. Now it's moving. Wait. Okay.
24:38
No, it's backing up. And now it's going
24:40
to shift the other way. Now it's Wait a
24:42
second.
24:43
This doesn't seem normal. So, it was
24:46
kind of going back, trying to back up.
24:47
Maybe there's an issue with the launch
24:49
perhaps.
24:52
Teased me. I thought it was going to be
24:53
going again. I thought the third and
24:54
final round would go go off without a
24:56
hitch.
25:02
And standing in the sun was a mistake.
25:02
Yeah, we're not moving. We're just uh
25:06
we're just sitting here. The the uh
25:09
narration is happening, but the boat's
25:11
not working. Look at this.
25:35
I don't think we're going to wash.
25:35
They're putting the ropes on and
25:36
everything.
25:38
They just put the ropes back on.
25:44
Oh, never mind. No, they took the rope
25:44
off.
25:46
I think we're going to launch. All
25:48
right, we're moving. We're moving.
26:12
I don't know what happened.
26:52
She just oiled up the
26:52
just oiled up the gears there. That's
26:53
pretty neat.
27:17
Ah, it just now it's sinking in that
27:20
this will be the last time I will be
27:23
going by parallel to Frontier Land right
27:26
behind you.
27:29
Wow.
27:31
What is this place coming to?
27:34
Got a log run log log dropping in right
27:37
there. Dropping logs.
27:55
Woo!
27:55
Soaking it in. Soaking it in. I've been
27:58
talking about this for a while. They're
28:00
like, "Oh, my last ride through day."
28:02
And it's here.
28:05
It's finally here.
28:36
You can tell how hot it is up here by my
28:36
hair. Just dripping sweat.
28:45
Warm.
28:45
We did ride this. We'll have to ride it
28:47
again when the reverb reopens. Little
28:52
redoing the track. And hopefully they
28:55
get the geysers working, I guess. And
28:57
hopefully they bring the dynamite in.
28:59
You ever been on the one at Disneyland?
29:00
No. It has It has like dynamite. You've
29:02
done the one at Disneyland, right? Quite
29:04
a few times. Yeah. I hope they hope they
29:05
bring the dynamite in here. Yeah, right.
29:07
That's what I hope they're doing. But
29:08
you can see they redid the track. Look
29:10
how nice and new and clean the track
29:12
looks in here, isn't there? There's
29:14
what? Two lifts in here. Is there Isn't
29:18
there two?
29:24
I'm getting them confused now. I ride
29:24
both of them so much it's hard to
29:26
differentiate.
29:28
Are there two? Are there two liftills
29:30
here? I I feel like Disneyland does a
29:34
better job of of excitement and than
29:37
Disney World. Okay. I do. I just this
29:40
ride here just what you see at Disney
29:44
compared to here.
29:47
I just I just don't see I think they
29:49
just whipped this up. Hot takes with
29:50
Kevin.
29:53
That should be an ongoing series now in
29:54
my videos. Yeah. Every time I see you,
29:56
I'm going to ask for a hot take.
29:59
No, I think you're right. Have a goat.
30:01
There is a goat at the It's right over
30:04
there. It's right on a stick. Oh, look
30:07
at this. Are we going to get shaving a
30:08
haircut? Come on. Give us shaving a
30:11
haircut.
30:16
Listen. Listen.
30:16
Shaving a haircut.
30:33
that's what I wanted. Yes. My last ride
30:36
on the shaving a haircut. I'm equally
30:39
amused. That rarely happens.
30:42
Perfect. Shaving a haircut or the
30:45
shaving a haircut. Very rarely will the
30:48
boat and the train be linked up parallel
30:51
to each other. And it is the one out of
30:53
a hundred times they do shave and
30:55
haircut. And we got it. First ride and
31:00
my last ride. Third time's a charm.
31:03
Shaving a haircut. Two bits. Christopher
31:05
Lloyd from Roger would be proud. Second
31:09
time in the history of my existence
31:11
riding this that I've got shave and a
31:14
Man, I'm glad I win this the third time.
31:16
I wasn't going to. And you're like, I'm
31:17
coming back on. I jumped back on. You
31:20
did? So, maybe we got shave and a
31:21
haircut. Two bits.
31:24
And now this ride will be retired and no
31:26
one has to listen to my dumb excitement
31:28
over anymore
31:31
over there. You got the You got the
31:33
skulls over there. You got the Not sure
31:36
exactly what that is, but it's supposed
31:37
to be like some sacrifice of some sort
31:40
up there. All right, one last look at
31:42
the party cave.
31:48
Got an animatronic over here. We got an
31:51
animatronic over here in the shirt.
31:53
White shirt. Animatronic doing the wave.
31:57
Doing the uh animatronic doing the
32:00
little wave. Going to miss that
32:01
animatronic
32:03
doing the wave down there. Just uh very
32:07
lifelike. Very lifelike animatronic
32:09
doing the wave.
32:14
You see that back over here? All right.
32:18
I thought it was going to be one last
32:19
wave.
32:21
Going to help me with the wave. See, you
32:23
can wave at someone.
32:25
What's up? Wave etiquette. If there's a
32:29
small body of water, you can wave. But
32:31
if we were on ground, it'd be awkward to
32:33
wave at people over there. That's that
32:35
close away. Just give the wave. No one's
32:39
waving back. Maybe we have our etiquette
32:41
wrong. They're waving. They're waving
32:43
over there. Just give the wave. Give the
32:46
wave. Everyone's waving. Saying goodbye
32:49
to the river boat. Saying goodbye to the
32:52
river boat from the Rivers of America
32:54
here at Magic Kingdom. Closing on the
32:56
6th,
32:58
July 6th. But I won't be here for that.
33:00
I won't be here on the final day. So,
33:01
this is my final day. That's standing by
33:04
to make it ashore. All a shore. That's
33:08
going ashore. Third time's a charm.
33:10
Third Liberty Square
33:17
as you make your way
33:20
once again busy today
33:29
and enjoy the rest of your day here at
33:29
the Magic Kingdom. That's it. That was
33:32
my final ride. It's not going to get any
33:35
better than shave and a haircut.
33:39
Love it. Perfect day for it. The hottest
33:42
day for it. It's a hot one. Feels like
33:44
118°. It feels like 180. Feels like 180
33:48
over here. These are all the tears of
33:51
everyone shedding tears.
33:55
Look at all the tears.
33:57
Jim, was that you crying right here? Jim
33:59
was crying all the way down. Please use
34:01
any one of the sevens located throughout
34:04
all three of our decks. But once again,
34:06
you'll be exiting on that very bottom
34:08
deck. Thank you.
34:11
We did it.
34:13
Goodbye everybody.
34:21
Man,
34:22
that's weird that that's my last time
34:23
ever.
35:03
around again.
35:03
I don't know. I think they're getting
35:05
off. I'm getting off. Three times ago.
35:08
Third time's the charm.
35:17
Liberty Bell. 50 years.
35:20
50 years of memories riding around that
35:23
thing. I'm going to guess I've been on
35:25
it thousand times.
35:28
Divide that over 50 years being a
35:31
passholder since 2001.
35:34
went on it many many times. It might
35:35
even be more than a thousand times. I
35:38
have stood 17-minute ride times a
35:41
thousand. I'm not mathematically getting
35:43
that equation, but that's a that's a lot
35:45
of hours.
35:51
Okay, now it's hitting me. What the
35:51
heck? Another one bites the dust.
35:55
Just lost Muppets.
35:58
Now losing this
36:00
again. And it closes the last day is
36:02
July 6th. But
36:04
my last harrah,
36:07
you were good to me. You're good to me.
36:10
Rivers of America.
36:12
I'd cherish this boat. But I'm moving
36:14
on. Yeah. What's going to happen to this
36:16
thing?
36:21
Yeah. Knowing you it'll end up at your
36:21
shop. Yeah, I wish going to put in an
36:23
offer.
36:25
Turn it into our chicken. Then you
36:27
really have to expand. Yeah.
36:30
All right, boarding the Montreal back.
36:33
This is Montreal Peach as shown right
36:39
Montreal Peach.
36:47
Back to TTC and then going to call it a
36:47
day.
36:59
announcement.
37:26
And that's going to do it for today from
37:30
Magic Kingdom.
37:32
Got three good rides in. The last ride
37:34
being probably the best with the
37:41
boat and the train. giving off a little
37:45
little uh a little steam whistle off if
37:49
you will. They say third time's a charm
37:51
and the third was the best out of all
37:53
three of them. Going to miss that boat
37:56
as stated. Looking forward to seeing
37:59
what the future holds.
38:01
It is going to be weird though not
38:02
having that boat in the Rivers of
38:04
America.
38:06
Ain't that right, Mickey?
38:08
If I reached over and touched that, I
38:10
would probably scald my hand because he
38:11
is that's heavy metal Mickey is made out
38:13
of metal. So he right now he's probably
38:15
permeating with heat because it is warm
38:17
out here.
38:20
Thanks for watching. I'll see you in the
38:21
next video. The vlog
38:25
and the rivers of America from my
38:27
standpoint cuz guess I'm not going to be
38:28
here when it closes in a couple weeks
38:33
is over.
38:35
Man, that's weird to say.
