Dragon at Disneyland's Fantasmic goes up in flames in front of guests

Vater:

This is the single greatest thing I’ve seen at Disney in years.

eightdotthree:

Ohhh. I was watching the video Gonch posted.

Yeah, same. I should clarify, now that I’ve watched both videos: these are two of the greatest things I’ve seen at Disney in years.

Yeah, sorry. I should've been clearer. That was essentially a Gonchback to the last time a dragon caught fire at Disney.

RCMAC:

Just when IS the appropriate time to break character and get the hell outta there?

I think it's funny to imagine them NOT breaking character.

Snow Queen Elsa flutters around asking politely in a fancy voice, "Danger is near us. Please exit quickly. I'll try to stop the burning dragon with my ice powers."

Too bad Mega Man isn't a Disney character, they could've just painted some fire extinguishers blue and stuck them on the end of his arms.

"Cause of fire unknown"

Um...maybe because it's a fire breathing dragon?

I guess they imagineered a fix after the first time it happened. Wonder if they'll engineer one this time.

All the fire extinguishers are full of pixie dust.

Which is, ironically, highly flammable.

This was on the noon news today. The tag was “Similar displays at other Disney properties have also been temporarily suspended.” And I don’t know why, but I thought the need for such a statement kind of funny.
“We’re not going to Disney anymore. In addition to being woke groomers, their dragons are catching fire left and right down there. It’s just not safe.”

Cal Osha is going to be on them for not using non flamable hydraulic fluid for a start. Yes there is such a thing.......
