Guests were not expecting this while at the Magic Kingdom. Find out what led to this surprising evacuation.
Disney World Malfunctions
With all of the wonderful technology incorporated in Disney World attractions, you are sure to have a magical time. On the flip side of that, however, ride malfunctions are bound to happen.
Certain elements may be omitted from the ride experience, and on one occasion, an arm was ripped off an animatronic.
If you experience an attraction malfunction, share this with a Cast Member so magic can be restored for future guests.
Hall of Presidents
The Hall of Presidents attraction is a multi-media presentation stage show that features all elected officials who have served as President of the United States.
The attraction begins with a short film depicting different landmark historical periods and events depicting several past presidents such as Theodore Roosevelt and John F. Kennedy, who played a significant role in America's history.
Following the short film, the attraction continues with a stage presentation of each of the presidents who appear life-like to the audience. However, they are audio-animatronics and feature speeches by Abraham Lincoln, George Washington, and the current President of the United States.
Hall of Presidents Malfunction
With so many animatronics, malfunctions are inevitable. Recently, during a visit at the Hall of Presidents, George Washington had a malfunction when it was his turn to speak.
On New Year's Eve all guests had to exit the Hall of Presidents.
The George Washington animatronic bent all of the way over, the lights turned on, and the audio ceased. A Cast Member notified guests that the show had ended unexpectedly. Guests were asked to exit, and the attraction was closed.
