I almost got thrown out of Disney a couple of years ago, a cast member told me they had just opened a backstage path between Main Street and Tomorrow land because Main Street was full because of a Parade. So I started walking and no one else was heading that way yet and got stopped by a guard. Turns out that the staff on Main Street and the Staff in Tomorrow Land had failed to notify the guards that they where opening the path to guest. One quick radio call and I was on my way.

I had a friend that got kicked out of the park. He went back a couple of years later and after he went through the ticket booth he only got a couple of feet into the park. A couple of Disney security came up calling him by name and told him he had to leave. Disney has a very impressive facial recognition system. If you are in the system forget about getting into any Disney property anywhere in the world.

having been backstage (marched in a parade with my high schools marching band) there's not a whole lot to see back there. although we did get some cheers from cinderella, belle, and a headless goofy all riding by on a golf cart, so that was rather memorable. definitely not worth getting kicked out of the park to see though

21:52 - 22:30. The streaker inside Disneyland's It's a Small World ride was exhibiting his BARE necessities! 😅😅😅

I saw two Park ejections this week. We were heading into mk and saw a large group of security around a couple leaving the park (I would guess not willingly and I have no idea why) and then during fireworks a guest physically hurt a cast member who stopped them from crossing a closed bridge and security was getting them backstage and gone

Had someone film the entirety of Remy’s ride in the front row with their flash on. The CMs yelled at them to stop as we left the boarding area, but they ignored them and filmed the entire time. If you’re reading this, please don’t be like this person. Nobody likes this person.

Working at Disney, you find out that there are a lot of ejections each day. What I am told about is guests doing/saying horrible things to us in entertainment. Factor in the guests being too drunk, or being caught smoking Mary Jane then I’m sure it’s at least a dozen or so ejections/bans a day. People are wild and their worst tends to come out at the happiest place on earth.

The tunnel system under MK is really cool though. I highly recommend that tour. DO NOT bring little kids though.

11:37 there was one time that a black bird was living inside Pizza Planet and would try to steal the pizzas from the guests. I named the bird Ebony after the cat we had in my family growing up. The bird was there for a long time too before they took the bird out.

The only time someone thought I was a CM in Disneyland was at a Dapper Day when a kid said to his mom "Why don't you ask him when the ride will reopen?" and she said "He doesn't work here, it just looks like he does." I smiled.

Accidental intrusions into the backstage areas will not get you kicked out. I encountered a guest in the staff corridor outide the main kitchen at the grand floridian, and she turned out to have accidentally went through the wrong door and then wandered around until she met a human being (me). In addition, the Behind the Seeds tour is one of the "behind the magic" tours that encourages picture taking. I personally instigated an ejection and ban after a guest threw a sandwich at me. I was working the cold service line at Gasperilla's (in the Grand Floridian), and this particular guest, who entered my line with a hostile attitude, decided I was cheating him out of the proper amount of jalapenos on his sandwich. So he threw it in my face. A quick five minute later, he and his family were being walked to their cars by security.

One time before the start of the 3:00 parade the cast members were trying to get the crowd organized around the sidewalks in preparation for the parade to begin. One guest who was seated in an area that needed to be opened up for the parade to go through refused to move from their spot. No one ever raised their voice, but after a few attempts at trying to convince the guest to move a number of security cast members surrounded the guest, picked them up and escorted them outside the park. Everyone clapped and cheered. It was sad that they had to do this sort of thing. No doubt this person had "had enough" for the day and wasn't budging another inch.

I can't believe it took until 2022 for Disney to address being nice to people. That's just insane

What about line cutting? Is that not officially cause for ejection from the park?

Having worked at small world I would not swim naked or clothed in Small Worlds water. I have to inspect the boats but I am wearing waiders and I have hand sanitizer.

they should have areas to go for quiet times... it would also be nice if parks were so full... i swear theyve increased their max capacity i wish they would completely ban cameras and phones on dark rides... it's bad enough when the flash goes off but to be sat behind someone with their screen on just ruins it

The Photopass Enchanted Extra photo session is 1,000% worth it. I did it in April and I had over 200 photos (most were amazing) at some of my favorite spots and it was a longer shoot than I anticipated

I am actually going to Disneyland for my senior year of high school and I will be doing a Darkwing Duck dineybound as he is one of my all time faves so it’s funny you mention him

all about the safety of people re backstage.. translates as That is not covered by insurance and we don't want our secrets getting out to public, and a better definition of folding chair is needed, there are those new sort of leaning seat things that kind of pop out of a pole and such..they have a very minimal profile almost like they are not even there.

A caveat to Disney bounding. You will probably still get kicked out if you Disney bound as Pluto by only wearing a dog collar.

With Disney's "no drones" rule, I'm curious how Bioreconstruct gets those up close pictures from above. 🤔

I still can’t believe I captured the cucumber lady in Epcot on film. Epic moment for me lol. Hope she got kicked out for good

Super zoom pictures are really cool. We did two. One in galaxy’s edge, my kids didn’t understand what we were doing, so they look super annoyed on the picture. The second one, in animal kingdom, they understood the assignment, it looks very cool

18:51 people on the autism spectrum hate those loud noisemakers

"Surprising ways to get kicked out of Disney World" "Being a child without a grown up watching you" "Going where you're not allowed to go" "Climbing on stuff you're clearly not supposed to climb on" ..... I think some of these are only surprising in that anybody would be dumb enough to think you wouldn't get kicked out for it.

I had the chance to do the Disney’s Magic behind the Steam Tour in 2016 which is about their steam locomotives. The tour starts at the Magic Kingdom train Station where they’ll take you by train to their shops where you’ll learn about their steam locomotives Plus during the tour you’ll learn about the history of the locomotives and how Disney found them. It was a cool tour!

Can you start putting time stamps on your videos?

Ash scattering is also an issue at sports stadiums.

Not all those photographers are good. We did that 20 minutes and 😑😑😑

Thanks for sharing.

Me and my Wife took the Keys of the Kingdom tour on our honeymoon last January. It was pretty cool.

One time I got lost while trying to find the biking trail at Fort Wilderness Campground, and I almost crossed into the old River Country by pure accident. Mind you I didn’t even know about River Country at the time, I was somehow just _that_ lost lol. Luckily there was a cast member stationed there who directed me back to my site, but they were obviously there to sniff out trespassers and now I just have to live with the knowledge that they probably thought I was trying to break in lol

I can remember in Feb 03 at epcot they were nice and let me charge mini camcorder battery behind the walls of Morocco because they had power outlets on exterior walls ( good opportunity to catch a smoke of mother nature ) . Tried same about 5yrs later and was told new rules forbade it. Understanding but still a bummer

There is a squirrel that lives at the Rose and Crown in World Showcase the cast members named (can’t remember the name) and they fed it and had no problems with guests feeding them off their plate

About the first rule in the video: I worked at Knott’s Berry Farm in the late 90’s. There was a father and son who owned a ranch somewhere down there and they would come to the park every few weeks, dressed in full cowboy regalia, knowing full well that guests would assume they worked there and approach them for photos or to ask questions. These two a-holes thought it was hysterical to be rude as hell to the guests, so that they would think the Knott’s employees were jerks. I asked my bosses about it and they said they couldn’t ban them or anything because it wasn’t the park’s fault that people thought the guys worked there, they technically weren’t doing anything wrong.

You can also get banned for inappropriate visible tattoos. Like the Tinker Bell tattoo incident….I needed brain bleach after that one.

Also with the courtesy rule if a cast member is being a problem then find their name and email Disney. They’ll take care of it. I encountered one when I was there last. He was screaming at guests. He screamed at me for scanning my magic band when he told me to. I messaged Disney and they said they’d take care of it. It really made me feel heard.

Just saw a kid on Tuesday the 26th after Christmas at the Long Beach airport with the roller shoes and a Disney T-shirt. So I guess yes they do.

used to be a bus driver and we regularly went backstage,theres a lot of construction and materials all over the place also the parade floats are back there,having people walking there is dangerous and someone Climbing on a float and falling getting hurt is something that must be avoided not to mention seeing a character walking around with the head on their arms will ruin the experience.

Yes, selling your services in a park: Disney World abruptly starts banning third-party tour guides (Washington Post, Dec 11, 2023).

That bonus one was really funny🤣 somebody actually jumped out from a It's A Small World boat into the water and started swimming. Do they have any idea how dirty the water is and what could be under it? I can imagine that there are mechanical parts of the ride that can hurt you or shock you if you make contact with something electrical current

I can't imagine paying all the money to soak in the magic of Disney then flinging a load of abuse at a Disney character. Talk about breaking your own immersion.

About the folding chair thing; what about walkers?

My family had season passes to Disneyland all throughout the 80s and 90s, and never once did we come close to being kicked out of the park, or see people doing things mentioned here (except, maybe, the lawn chair one). It's so sad to me that Disney has felt the need to specify some of these rules.

I left the day right before that incident happened at Disney land! crazy!

What is this drink? Reminds me of the fishbowl at the wave. Where can I find this drink??!!

When Heelys first came out I wore mine to MGM and I was having the best time just gliding on their perfect pavement. I made the mistake of riding them across the docking ramps on star tour and a cast member told me I couldn’t wear them in the park.

A.J Do you know if there are any rules about ostomy bags for WDW?

I’ve witnessed a smoker be escorted out with the family upset and following behind. The culprit was cussing out the cast member.

How do they track guest who were banned years ago that decide to come back

I’m so desperate to go back!! Now I’m certain of how not to get kicked out I’m all set 😂

That's strange.. I'm pretty sure I have been in the park by myself when I was under 16 and probably closer to 13-14. I honestly don't remember when the last time I went was exactly. Maybe it's because it was the Disney Land park and not the Disney World parks.

I was curious at how Disney treats its employees and there's lot of information online suggesting that they pay a lot of people where they can barely keep up with the cost of living. They have to join unions in order to try to get fair compensation. This is horrendous considering how much they are raising rates and how much they pay Managers. Employees should benefit also. I bet most can't even report on this for fear they would get banned by Disney.

A good question I've had for a long time about the POV's on KZfaq on any ride at Universal, Disney Parks, Bush Gardens, and other theme parks etc. My question is how has any KZfaqr been able to post any film recording of any ride or event or attraction on KZfaq and been able to post?! Not that I'm complaining at all, just wondering about (like for example Splash Mountain footage) said main attraction or popular ride footage

Wonderful video. I really appreciate the help you provided to me. All the restrictions seem to be just plain old common sense. Use your head don’t loose your head ! The best way. Meow meows ❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

My mom assumed that since she had a total hip replacement she could bring a chair. Nope, they stored it at the dog kennel for us.

I didn't see don't bottle / drink the ride water. There was a story about that in the last year or 2.

B.B.B. ! Equals V.I.P. Treatment at a level that just makes a Father proud . There is just something very special about a Father and his Princess being pulled out of the Tron line and escorted onto the front of the lightcycle train or Space Mountain that just , ummm , yeah , absolutely magical , no doubt the same would apply to B.B.B. knights . Just Phenomenal experience !

What about folding chairs or walkers with a seat.

So about the bike thing, I have a fear of bikes, but getting on a bike

I just want to show my appreciation for your use of Frontside Flips instead of the standard kickflip or something lol

What about safety alarms? Are they banned from the parks?

I love the two things on this list that made it into the Simpsons Itchy and Scratchy World episode.

This might be a specific question but are people allowed to show off their drawings of Disney characters in Disney land?

dressing up like a goth version of snow white and bellowing an off-key version of "whistle while you work" while you slap people on the back of the head

I was expecting to think at least one of these would be ridiculous. The part about being unsure about celebrities taking and posting questionable pictures might be odd if I knew more about it but everything that’s restricted seems like just common sense to me although I’m not quite sure about what the alcohol restrictions are. It’s definitely common sense that a person under drinking age isn’t allowed to be in possession of alcohol or drinking.

Im pleasantly surprised you said frontside flip

Yes I love these vids🍕

When Pandora first opened we were Navi and this guy in the boat behind us recorded the entire ride with a flash on. I was so mad. I hope they kicked him out. Absolutely ruined the ride. People in multiple boats were yelling at him. Didn’t stick around to see if security said anything. CMs wouldn’t let us re-ride either. 2 hour standby but we fortunately had a FP for it, but still was pretty mad.

22:02 Considering all the Disney character-themed code words CMs have (like Code Pooh for diaper disasters), I propose that "nekkid guest in the park" be named _Code Baloo._ Why? Because dude's in nothing but his _bare necessities_ 🥁

My best friend is a LEO down in Florida and occasionally would occasionally work at one of the parks or get called in when security called for the sheriff's department. Craziest way I heard to get banned involved some guy getting upset that security found some tiny like pen knife thing in his backpack on going in. Well the idiot decided to come out of I think it was the Be Our Guest Restaurant waving 2 steak knives and saying something about look at what they give us inside. Needless to say he was quickly escorted off and subsequently banned for life. Him and his whole family were staying at one of the Disney hotels on property so he was banned from those too. He wasn't happy to hear that his wife and children could continue their stay in their hotel rooms but he had to find alternate accommodations off property. That was at least few years ago but that was one of the craziest ways of getting banned outside of the people doing stuff like trying to get over to the defunct zoo on Discovery Island.

I'm just glad singing a disney song at the top of your lungs or putting on a disney concert can't get you kicked out of the park. It's free entertainment provided by a big disney enthusiast to the people. Yep, I love putting on a concert before the fireworks.

“Gnarly , frontside flip” You must have dabbled in the rad, skater kid life😊

I saw someone get taken away by security for dressing like Sailor Moon in her casual clothes, so it's not just Disney characters you can't dress as, if they have a distinctive enough look.

I find it extremely sad that people need to be asked, reminded or told to be kind and courteous. People complain how expensive Disney is, yet two things that are totally free seem to lost on some!

Oh yes kids still were skate sneakers. I was in MK about a month ago and a girl skated by and her mom thought it was great. I say annoying and dangerous.

With the folding chair, I think Disney should make an exception for people with disabilities. They should just let the park know ahead of time. Disney can be a very crowded place and visitors are not always going to find a place to sit down and/or might not have the funds or want to spend the extra funds on a park wheelchair.

So my boyfriend can't wear his Princess Aurora outfit? He makes an adorably believable princess!

so making money by taking vids at disney and streaming live from disney on youtube is ok tho? Cause tons of folks do that

FYI: there's lots of FORBIDDEN photos & videos of Club 33 on KZfaq! LOL!!

I bet the majority of the people trying to spread ashes in the park know they’re not allowed to.

What’s a ashes

I wonder about people with intellectual disabilities or other mental impairments as well as autistic adults who may want to dress up in their favorite character costume. Do you think Disney World would make an acception for them? Autism is a spectrum so how would they gauge it anyway? I am just curious. I have never been to Disney World personally.

Ok, I’m curious…seriously,how does AJ know about frontside flips?

I can’t even own a drone where I live because it is protected air space so not even commercial planes and helicopters are allowed

What you can pet them that’s cool

Or go to Hong Kong and you can dress up as Duffy and friends as an adult

Really I didn’t know the balloon thing

Being thrown out isn't the worst, It's when you are just passing the place and being thrown in there, all those kids, bored parents and the price of food and drinks, oooooch!

Can you wear a tshirt with Belle on it with a skort inside the park

Ever see that guy who drank the water in all the fountains in Epcot and was kicked out.

Disney also doesn't like you taking photos of infrastructure (cameras, electrical, exit doors, etc.)

Ha, ha, ha, ha, we can't pet or feed the animals but they can pet or touch us. Back in November 2019 my family of 8 went to Disney World and we were in line to meet Pooh and Tigger. I sat down on the stone wall to rest and suddenly a squirrel ran up my leg and sat on my lap for a second or two than ran off.

so I can pretty much come in a custom sithlord outfit

Unless it’s night of joy yeah they band that party the kids did so much damage that they said nope

🎉

I didnt even know kids still wore those heely things until some kid whizzed past me at the mall 😭😭

The fake football player and co wasnt kicked out or banned. Just humiliated online while defending himself.

Disneyland security would not let me bring in a folding step stool that would help my toddler use the bathroom.

i would re edit the alcahol in the hotel lines to "legal age of consumption". france legal age of alcahol consumption is 18, so the rule you mentiont doesn't apply there. 20, 19 and 18 year olds can drink alcahol in the france disney hotels. the rest of the rules are globaly the same.
