Favorite Jungle Cruise Quotes

[fall08CP]

B. It's old line from a looney tunes cartoon, but the skipper made me laugh when he made everyone get very quiet on the boat explaining, "If you listen closely, you'll hear the baby hippo call to it's mother......*quiet moment*...... skipper screams as the voice of the hippo, "HEY MOM! WHERE ARE YA!? I'M OVER HERE!" at the top of his voice.

This reminds me of the WDW railroad when the announcer says, "In fact, if you listen carefully you can hear the spirit of Pocahontas singing to John Smith."
Then she yells, "HAVE YOU EVER HEARD THE WOLF CRY TO THE BLUE CORN MOON...."
Gets us every time

I'm believe that spiel is no longer playing on the train.

I understand the whole narrator loop has been replaced due to the extended closing of the Toontown Station.

Speaking of other WDW transportation spiels, it reminds me of my favorite tram joke I heard at the TTC, "Welcome to tram, please take a seat. Don't worry about the puddles of water in the seat because it's magic water! When you sit on it, it disappears!"

Favorite Tram Spiels. That should be the next thread that is started!

Getting back to the original topic-

"See those birds? Those are called Toucans. Since there are three of them, that makes a six pack."

SKIPPER: Well, did everyone enjoy this trip on the world famous Disney Jungle Cruise?"

CREW: Yeah! Yes! (etc.)

SKIPPER: Well, I know I sure did. I enjoyed it so much that I think I'll go around again!

And, again!

And, again.

And, again...

Every ten minutes.

For the rest of my life...


(Stay in school, kids.)

This was mine! And I couldn't remember the beginning of it, so thanks for that! I'm not sure if this is a typical comment (I've only heard it the one time) or if we got the same skipper.

One of my many favorites:

See that fellow at the bottom of the pole? That's my friend Ohantas, if he's not careful that rhino is going to Poke Ohantas.

I like the back side of water

Favorite Skipper - Danger Bob. Is he still there (WDW)?

The boat in front of us was slow to unload so we were waiting for quite a while and he yells at them "Hurry up!!! I'm running out of material!!!"

 

[Robo]

"Hurry up!!! I'm running out of material!!!"

Classic!

 

[DizBelle]

When they use the gun and say "Shoo, shoo!" to scare off the hippos.

"If you've enjoyed the ride my name is (Adam).... and if you didn't, my name is (Susan) and this has been Pirates of the Caribbean"

Don't remember actual names

when i read this I totally remember hearing that one when i was a kid probably 20 something years ago

Some of the best jokes are the ones in the queue area. I remember a few when my friend just HAD to wait in the 45 minute long line.

"May I have your attention please due to circumstances beyond our control...the Jungle Cruise will be operating for the rest of the evening...Thank you."

"It's a four hour wait from there. Have you been upstairs yet?"

and a few on the ride..

"Lean in the middle, if you lean in the middle, we'll all sink evenly!" (behind the falls)

"Hey I know that guy on the bottom, his names Juan and it looks like that rhino is going to get a hole in Juan." (at the safari part)

I love corny jokes, so there are soo many on the Jungle Cruise I love. On our last trip though, a man spotted a duck in the water and said something to the skipper. Over the mic the skipper says "Yes, sir that's a duck", and then launches into this hilarious spiel about how that duck was the one animatronic animal in the attraction, and how unfortunate it was Disney couldn't do a better job in making it look as real as the rest of the animals.

We got a special one last trip. My daughter had just turned 10, and was wearing her birthday pin (actually she was wearing the one she got last year, which she insisted on bringing back!). We were stopped, waiting for other boats to unload, so the driver was vamping.

He wished her a happy birthday and asked her how old she was, and (as is her wont) she was slow in answering, so he said, "You're 46?" She thought that was the funniest thing she's ever heard, and two months later is still going around claiming to be 46.

A. outside Shirley's temple, the skipper asks, "Does anyone know where this tunnel leads to? Me neither, but it's Disney so it probably ends in a gift shop."

B. It's old line from a looney tunes cartoon, but the skipper made me laugh when he made everyone get very quiet on the boat explaining, "If you listen closely, you'll hear the baby hippo call to it's mother......*quiet moment*...... skipper screams as the voice of the hippo, "HEY MOM! WHERE ARE YA!? I'M OVER HERE!" at the top of his voice.

C. As the boat is loading and the skipper is making small talk.....

skipper: "Where are you from?"
Guest: "Cleveland"
skipper: "I'm sorry?"
Guest: "I said Cleveland"
Skipper: "No, I heard you, I'm just sorry."

Definintely one of my favorite rides, though, I'm more familiar with the DL version. Any hoo, when we go to WDW and the skipper asks where people are from, we tell him we are from Arizona. 9 times out of 10 the skipper will say, "Hey, here's something you folks from Arizona don't see too often. . . water!"

It's been 10 years, but I remember when the girl we had on one of our tours when we got to the part where the tribe was, she mentioned something about Spearing Britney.

My kids LOVE to watch Danger Bob on YouTube. That said, I asked in Nov 2010 if he was working that day, and the attendants gave me a very, very strange look when I said his name..... and said that he wasn't working.

"Up ahead there is a dock on the left and a dock on the right. That's called a paradox. and those two people in khaki, their called a para-dorks."
not sure if I got the wording right but it was so funny.

Heard a good one on the DL Jungle Cruise last night. At the beginning of the ride, the guide said,"There, on the right, is the Temple of the Forbidden Eye. You know why it's called that? Because the Temple of the Forbidden Me is just bad grammar."

By any chance, was his name Jason? Dark hair, glasses?

No, but I saw him on youtube, he's hilarious! Ours had an accent that we are 95% sure was of some sort of Spanish origin.
