It's hard to understate just how gigantic Jim was in the 80's to 90's. He was a cultural touchstone.

I remember watching this when I was a kid. The only part I remembered in detail was him saying there wasn't a lot of oxygen at the top. I would have been 8 at the time. Ernest was huge and the hype for Splash Mountain was huge. This special made the ride look really scary, much more so than it actually is. Back in the days before the internet a special like this was a treat because there really was no other way for me to look up the details of what a new ride at Disneyland was like.

At 10:24, you can hear Bruce Gordon say "They're some of the favorites" after mentioning that the adorable characters from the movie, Song of the South are what leads this attraction. Even though Disney hasn't released Song of the South in the USA since its 1986 theatrical release, Brer Rabbit, Brer Fox and Brer Bear are still to this day some of the favorites and why Disney is making a big mistake erasing them and removing Splash Mountain.

I just went on this for the first time last month. I remember watching this when it first aired. I'd wanted to go on it since. It's real interesting to watch this now. I literally cringed when he casually had his feet up, and the fact there was no bar or whatever that came down. And now ernest has his own ride. Kind of cool.

Disney was proud of Song of the South in the 1980s. The movie was released twice in that decade, in 1980 and 1986 - just three years before the ride opened. My guess is that Disney hadn't planned on withholding the movie at the time they made the attraction.
