Thanks to Finley Holiday!

We have managed to have found a ton of new footage of Knott's Bear-y Tales!

And this footage showcases the way the ride looked in its show lighting as Rolly Crump and his crew intended it back when the ride existed.

Although the footage was taken during the twilight years of the rude - hence Doctor Fox not moving his mouth smoothly here. This is still an amazing discovery and gives you a first professional glimpse into how the ride looked that most video cameras of the time couldn't capture!

Please await the rest! Enjoy this snippet for now!

Special Thanks to Finley Holiday, Chris Merritt and Carsten Bradley
