Fully Naked Man Terrorizes Disneyland

by

A gentleman was detained at Disneyland in Anaheim, California, following an incident where he stripped off his clothing, roamed the premises naked, and recklessly scaled one of the park’s eateries.

Visitors had to leave the New Orleans Square part of the park on Saturday evening (April 12), as an unknown individual removed his clothes and climbed up the highest point of the Mint Julep Bar within Tiana’s Palace restaurant.

The restaurant that debuted in 2023, drawing inspiration from the 2009 animated movie “The Princess and the Frog,” had to momentarily shut down following the occurrence.

As reported by SFGate, Disneyland employees guided perplexed spectators aside when a bare-bodied man climbed atop a restaurant and performed actions intended for the audience below.

You can find on Instagram a video showing a surprising incident that contains NSFW content. In this clip, one cast member is seen asking park visitors to leave the area with a apologetic “Sorry, everyone,” while a woman off-screen exclaims in shock, “Oh my goodness!

The incident took place around 10 PM local time.

…”The Anaheim Police Department was requested to help Disneyland’s security team, who had apprehended a man found without clothes within the park, close to New Orleans Square,” stated Matthew Sutter of the Anaheim Police Department to SFGate.

The man was arrested for trespassing, public nudity, and being under the influence.

As reported by ABC 7 Eyewitness News, the individual who disrobed at Disneyland hailed from Canada.

It’s not the initial occurrence that a person exposing themselves, often referred to as a streaker, has startled visitors who thought they were in a safe environment at “The Happiest Place on Earth.

In the year 2023, an individual visiting Disneyland was taken into custody following an unusual incident where, while riding ‘It’s a Small World’, he decided to remove his clothes down to his undergarments.

After that, the man walked or swam against the current where boats usually pass, followed by scaling an exhibit and settling right among a cluster of automated dolls.

Amazing Theme Park Rides Based on Movies That Were Never Built

Indiana Jones and the Lost Expedition

Disneyland’s Indiana Jones ride, known as The Indiana Jones Adventure, debuted in 1995. Originally, Disney creators had grander plans for the Indy property, which would have significantly altered Adventureland. Instead of what we see today, a massive pavilion called The Lost Expedition was initially intended. This structure was supposed to host two rides: a roller coaster modeled after the mine-car ending from ‘Temple of Doom,’ and a dark ride in jeeps showcasing Indy’s most memorable adventures, including elements from the existing Jungle Cruise. However, most of the land earmarked for The Lost Expedition was repurposed to construct Splash Mountain instead.

Indiana Jones Ore Car Attraction

Let’s take a peek at the “Ore Car Simulator,” which was planned to be part of the Lost Expedition compound, had the Indiana Jones land been constructed. However, the Indiana Jones land never materialized, but the Disney empire does feature an Indiana Jones mine-train roller coaster: Indiana Jones and the Temple of Peril, found at Disneyland Paris. It was the first looping coaster at any Disney park. (As a teenager, I had the misfortune of experiencing a brief malfunction on this ride once – not exactly enjoyable!)

Indiana Jones Jungle Cruise

The “River Idol” sculpture would likely have been a focal point in the revamped Jungle Cruise, designed to complement an entire land filled with Indiana Jones-themed attractions. Indeed, it appears as though it’s straight out of an Indiana Jones film set.

The Hauntington Hotel

Prior to Orlando’s popular interactive shooting attractions such as Toy Story Midway Mania and Men in Black Alien Attack, Six Flags had devised a Ghostbusters ride concept known as Hauntington Hotel. In this proposed experience, riders would traverse a creepy building, armed with car-mounted proton packs to hit targets. As revealed in an interview at 2600connection.com by the ride’s designer, the entire creation, design, engineering, and prototyping were completed and set for installation in Texas, but the sale of Six Flags’ theme parks division by its parent company led to the project’s collapse under new ownership – a potential misfortune often considered one of history’s greatest regrets.

Nostromo

For about eight years, the Magic Kingdom’s Tomorrowland was home to an attraction named ExtraTERRORestrial: Alien Encounter. Riders were literally strapped down to their seats while a menacing E.T. “materialized” in the center of the room, and then proceeded to touch and breathe on them while the lights were out. When Alien Encounter opened it starred a creepy alien; when it was conceived it starred *the* creepy alien — as in H.R. Giger’s iconic xenomorph from Ridley Scott’s classic 1979 film. Astonishingly, someone at Disney thought it was a good idea to insert a little acid-blooded horror into the Happiest Place on Earth. Eventually, Disney came to their senses and abandoned the ‘Alien’ aspect (and the original name for the attraction, Nostromo, after the ship in the film), but not the overall concept. After terrifying children for almost a decade (I was one of them; this thing was pure nightmare fuel), Alien Encounter finally closed in 2003. The site now houses a toned-down version starring Stitch from ‘Lilo & Stich.’

The James Bond Live-Action Stunt Show

Initially, the design for Universal Studios Florida featured an impressive illustration by ‘Star Wars’ artist Ralph McQuarrie for a James Bond-themed stunt show. This concept was heavily influenced by longtime James Bond production designer Ken Adam. The proposed “Giant Circular Roof” would have opened to reveal screens displaying Bond’s most formidable enemies, who would watch as 007 met his demise and a nuclear warhead was launched. Unfortunately, this idea never took flight, but over the years, Universal Studios has hosted stunt shows based on ‘Conan the Barbarian,’ ‘The A-Team,’ ‘Miami Vice,’ ‘Spider-Man,’ and ‘Waterworld.’

Mel Brooks’ Hollywood Horror Hotel

Initially, the Tower of Terror wasn’t linked to ‘The Twilight Zone,’ instead it was originally envisioned as a joint project between Disney and Mel Brooks. Later on, Brooks withdrew from the project, and ‘The Twilight Zone’ elements were incorporated, but prior to this, plans for “Hotel Mel,” as it was known colloquially, included a blend of an attraction and a functional hotel within the same structure, along with a murder mystery that could be solved using clues scattered around the premises. Interestingly, StudioCentral.com claims Brooks lost enthusiasm and departed to produce ‘Life Stinks’ just as Imagineers discovered the idea of incorporating haunted elevators that would suddenly plunge from their shafts. The Tower of Terror is a fantastic ride, but when you consider that we almost had an entire Mel Brooks hotel instead, it does seem unfortunate.

Batman Island

Initially, Islands of Adventure at Universal Studios had an area dedicated to Batman instead of the current Marvel Super Hero Island. This themed section was conceived in the early 1990s when Tim Burton’s Batman films were popular, featuring a Batmobile ride, a Bat-jet attraction, and a live action stunt show with Batman, Robin, and Superman. However, plans changed as they often do, and eventually, Batman’s spot was replaced by characters like Spider-Man and the Hulk from Marvel.

Batwing: Batman vs the Penguin

As a movie reviewer, I’d put it this way:

In an alternate universe where Batman Island was a reality, the star attraction would have been a thrilling suspended roller coaster. This unique ride offered two distinct options: the Batman track and the Penguin track, each promising a one-of-a-kind experience filled with special effects, pyrotechnics, and jaw-dropping surprises. A subtle nod to Christopher Walken’s iconic character, Shreck from ‘Batman Returns’, can be found at Shreck’s Department Store in the ride’s design. Regrettably, this incredible ride never saw the light of day. However, the concept of ‘dueling’ coasters lived on, finding its home in Universal Orlando’s Islands of Adventure with the Dueling Dragons ride (now known as Dragon Challenge and part of its Harry Potter land).

Dick Tracy’s Crime-Stoppers

Prior to the release of Warren Beatty’s “Dick Tracy” in 1990, it was anticipated that the film would become a massive success, prompting Disney to consider a theme park attraction based on it. This proposed attraction would have allowed riders to embark on a chase through Chicago as Dick Tracy, complete with vehicles outfitted with tommy guns for shooting targets along the way. However, when “Dick Tracy” failed to establish itself as a franchise, the idea was abandoned. The design of these planned ride vehicles bears a resemblance to those in the Indiana Jones Adventure, and the interactive shooting gallery concept can still be found in Buzz Lightyear’s Space Ranger Spin.

‘The Nightmare Before Christmas’ Ride

Visitors for this ride inspired by the 1993 stop-motion Christmas movie would have entered spectral coffins (!) for a dark journey reminiscent of Peter Pan’s Flight, but with an eerie and unsettling Tim Burton twist. Disney found the concept appealing, yet Tim Burton, who co-owned the characters, did not share their enthusiasm and ultimately rejected it. Instead, Disney annually reimagines the Haunted Mansion in California as “Haunted Mansion Holiday,” incorporating characters from the film.

Godzilla Bullet Train

Since the 1970s, there had been preliminary discussions about incorporating a bullet train ride into the Japan Pavilion at Epcot. Visitors would have found themselves in a vehicle looking out at screens depicting a trip through Japan’s countryside. However, an intriguing spin on this idea involved introducing Godzilla to the mix; he would emerge from the sea and attack the train during its voyage through Tokyo Harbor. Reportedly, the project never progressed beyond preliminary talks with Toho, the studio that owns Godzilla, as they felt a massive, destructive monster didn’t align with Epcot’s tranquil, naturalistic environment. Regrettably.

The Great Muppet Movie Ride

For over two decades, The Muppets have been a significant part of Disney’s Hollywood Studios, entertaining crowds with their MuppetVision 3D film. Initially, plans were made for the Muppets to play a more substantial role in the park, featuring a parody of the Great Movie Ride titled The Great Muppet Movie Ride. In this attraction, Jim Henson’s cherished characters would have enacted iconic movie scenes. However, during a corporate merger between Disney and Henson, the deal collapsed following Henson’s passing in 1990, effectively cancelling the Muppet Movie Ride. Nevertheless, Disney eventually acquired the Muppets in 2004, leaving open the possibility that their most remarkable theme-park attraction is still to be created.

Jurassic Park Jeep Safari

At Universal’s Islands of Adventure, Jurassic Park features a River Adventure ride, which, while featuring animatronic dinosaurs, differs significantly from the Jurassic Park films. Originally, plans included additional Jurassic Park attractions such as a Jeep Safari that would have closely followed the movie’s narrative, allowing visitors to embark on a remote-controlled journey through the park. This safari would have taken them under brontosaurus, outrunning T-Rex, and into confrontations with raptors. However, it was determined that this concept was too similar to the River Adventure, making coexistence of both attractions unfeasible, as reported by DisneyAndMore.Blogspot.com.

Have a look at this detailed image of the Jurassic Park Jeep Safari vehicle. It has a similar nostalgic feel as the classic 8-passenger DeLoreans from ‘Back to the Future’.

Baby Herman’s Runaway Buggy Ride

Initially, Disney intended to develop multiple theme-park rides based on ‘Who Framed Roger Rabbit’. One of these planned attractions was Baby Herman’s Runaway Buggy Ride. In this concept, visitors would take on the role of Baby Herman’s stunt double in a thrilling, perilous scene, all while seated in baby carriage-shaped vehicles. Guests would also don baby bonnets during the ride to enhance the experience and boost sales of souvenir photos taken during the journey. Regrettably, disagreements between Disney and Steven Spielberg’s Amblin Entertainment over creative control of Roger Rabbit resulted in the cancellation of this ambitious project, as well as the shelving of other proposed rides.

Toontown Trolley

Similar to the Baby Herman ride, conflicts surrounding the character Roger Rabbit hindered plans for a Star Tours-like simulator ride that would have showcased a tour through the cartoon world of ‘Who Framed Roger Rabbit’. Originally, these rides were intended to be incorporated into a completely new Disneyland area known as Hollywoodland. However, over time, this section was reimagined as Mickey’s Toontown, with Roger Rabbit missing out on his own dedicated space.

Here’s another fascinating concept art for the Roger Rabbit trolley ride. It seems quite psychedelic. I believe children, particularly those with a sugar rush, would find it captivating.
