Big Thunder Mountain 2021 by Martin part 2 – Orlando and Tokyo from Martins Videos on Vimeo.

Continuing my new series, see why Orlando got Big Thundermountain, how the design was changed from Anaheim, and how it was built. Then see the major changes made over the years and then take a full tour of the interactive queue and a multi angle full ride through. Take in the mountain from various angles, the Riverboat and the railroad, take a ride at night and then see how Tokyo’s version was designed, the changes made for it and also take a ride on that version too. Phew!

Splash Mountain WDW – Ultimate HD Tribute

by on Aug.17, 2014, under Frontierland, Magic Kingdom, Walt Disney World

Splash Mountain WDW – Ultimate HD Tribute from Martins Videos on Vimeo.

A massive, detailed HD edit covering every aspect of the attraction. Begin with a look at the Disneyland version and the changes made in Orlando with a comparison between the two. Next is a detailed section looking at the planning, design and layout of the Orlando version plus a good look at how the area – and Frontierland Railroad Station – looked both before and during construction.

Take a look around the finished attraction from every area including the full queue, then walk to load for a full multi angle ride through of the whole ride from start to finish including every detail and every main show scene in full.

After riding, wander through Splash Down photos and take a tour of the larger Railroad station and ride both into and out of the ride and station.

Finally, take a whistlestop tour of the ride at night.
I’m again proud of the multitrack full source stereo audio edit I’ve managed.

Reserve over an hour for this one!

Pirates of the Caribbean and The Big Thundermountain Railroad WDW – Ultimate Tribute

by on Aug.15, 2009, under Adventureland, Frontierland, Magic Kingdom, Walt Disney World

Pirates of the Caribbean and The Big Thundermountain Railroad WDW – Ultimate Tribute from Martins Videos on Vimeo.

Here is the first of a multi part WDW Adventureland and Frontierland history series. It made sense to produce a video showing the history of these 2 attractions since they are both connected, and indeed exist, due to the third attraction also featured in the video – the never built Thunder Mesa and Western River Expedition.

Beginning in the late 60`s see the designs and proposals in detail for Thunder Mesa and its 2 E Tickets, Western River Expedition and Big Thunder Railroad. Follow the plots and concepts of both rides, plus the Mountain, before arriving in 1971 and the reasons behind and the designs of Pirates of the Caribbean. Following this is a full concepts, layout and construction section of the Orlando version, followed by a full multi angle enhanced and remastered edit of the 1973 ride with a new stereo source audio/clean live audio mix. Next, see the history and design of Caribbean Plaza and then jump forward 5 years for the reasons behind and full concept and construction coverage of Big Thundermountain Railroad – and how Western River was nearly built again.

Follow the design and layout of Big Thundermountain, and take a multi angle trip aboard the wildest ride in the wilderness. Next, follow the changes made to both attractions since 1973 and 1980, then see what took place in Pirates of the Caribbean during its major 2006 refurb. This is followed by a full multi angle, stereo source/clean live audio mix ride of the current attraction including full queue coverage. Finally, take a tour of modern day Caribbean Plaza, see the additions made for The Pirates League, what parts of Thunder Mesa were actually used and finish with a night time ride on Big Thundermountain.

85 minutes long.
