"Hang onto your hats and glasses, 'cause this here is the wildest ride in the wilderness!" 🤠🚂🌵 Step aboard a runaway mine train and journey back over a decade to experience a stunning masterpiece of Disneyland history! This is a full, uncut front-seat ride-through of the iconic "Big Thunder Mountain Railroad" roller coaster at Disneyland Park in Anaheim, California, beautifully preserved from April 20, 2014.
Originally opening in 1979, Big Thunder Mountain completely redefined themed roller coasters. This rare 2014 archive captures the attraction right after its legendary, multi-month track replacement and major overhaul. Watch as we race through the sun-baked, Bryce Canyon-inspired rock formations, dodge falling boulders, splash through mountain springs, and brave the newly upgraded third lift hill—featuring the then-brand-new, cutting-edge projection mapping and dynamic explosion effects that breathe explosive new life into the old mining camp. It is an invaluable, nostalgic time capsule of a classic Disney E-Ticket in its prime.
