Originally Posted By danyoung Actually there were a couple of people killed on the Matterhorn. Both of them somehow fell out of their bobsleds.

One of them didn't make it. And there actually is an angle where a part of Mickey's sculpture does look like Walt's penis. Certainly not intentional, but it's there.

I never saw this so dont know what building it is?

Originally Posted By dresswhites ah rumors. the matterhorn will sink if they ever drain the sub lagoon. luckly when they drained the sub lagoon to build nemo, the matterhorn didn't sink there are hundreds of tunnels underneath disneyland. they are some areas areas underground, but no extensive tunnel system under DL. i think people confuse this with WDW.

Originally Posted By danyoung Yup. He was told to jump down onto some buildings, but he instead decided to lay down on the plastic wings underneath the track. There wasn't enough clearance, and he was dragged many feet before they could stop the train.
