Built our own Soarin Ride

[dreamersempire]

On July 4th my brother and I, being the Epcot fanatics we are, put on an Epcot themed celebration at his house we called "Minicot". We re-created three major elements of Epcot at his house. The highlight was Soarin, and we also did Illuminations and Mexico.

You'll find them at youtube with keyword 'Minicot' but here now (since I have 10 posts) is the actual links

Part 1 - Soarin Ride
Part 2 - Illuminations and Mexico

We're thinking about putting together a list of any ride re-creations that anyone else has done, since we posted we found a Tower of Terror re-creation that was quite extensive, and a "Phantasmic" which was a good effort. Let me know if you know of other Disney ride re-creations!

If I call you my best friends, will you come to Illinois and set this all up at my house!!! Amazing! I wish I had a neighbor like you. How much time did this all take? I can't say enough to even give it justice.

You did a great job! I love the attention to detail, such as the lights at the Soarin queue!

The whole event was so much fun to watch! Please keep us posted if you do more attractions.

Could you post some (still) pictures? Video takes too long to download and show on my computer.
