On topic, Everest totally rocked, even in soft open mode. The Yeti is truly one of the greatest animatronics characters you'll ever see, even if it is for only a few seconds. With this and Soarin' at Epcot (which had a 120+ minute standby line), WDW has got some hot attractions on their hands.

I have no idea if the Yeti animatronic compares to the Imhotep animatronic. I suppose it could, but that's hard to judge from two seconds compared to about fifteen.
