Just Back - The Good, The Better, and Sweet Baby James what just fell in my lap???

Somewhere, someone is telling a story about how a lady flung a lizard onto them in ToT.

I love this story! My guess would be one of those tiny lizards too. I remember sitting against the railings in MK waiting for wishes and feeling something scurry across my leg - totally freaked out until I realised it was one of those and then I wasn't as scared - at least it wasn't a spider!

I would have been panicing that it could be a bat!

Sweet Baby James, what just fell in my lap???? : On our 2nd ride of ToT of the night, just before the ride ended, during one of the drops, something plopped in my lap. I mean, PLOPPED. I felt it hit my lap, so much so that I thought it was someone's hat, mickey ears, something like that. I reached down to see what it was, and THANK GOD it was pitch dark and I was strapped in....because whatever it was had legs and it WRAPPED ITSELF AROUND MY FINGERS!!!! I shrieked like a demon and flung whatever it was off into the blackness. My apologies to anyone it may have hit
Really, I freaken hate spiders and crawly things...so if I hadn't been strapped in I would have leaped off the ride, and if I could have seen what it was I would have had nightmares for months. I don't want to know what it was. Gah!!!

Any questions or anything else you can think of...just ask!

I just snickered to myself!

I read this and thought it must be something they do on the ride...then I realized something ALIVE and creepy fell in your lap and it was heavy enough you thought it was someone's hat??? OMG!!!!!!!!! I don't know if I can go on this ride now. What if it was a big Tarantula spider? If it stays dark in there all the time they won't see that stuff crawling around. AAAAHHHH!!!! I wish I hadn't read this!!

 

[KristiKat]

My first thought was it must be a bat. Ugh! Even if it was just a lizard I'd still freak out. I got the hebbie jebbies just reading this. My skin is crawling. Guessing it didn't show up in the pic?

I thought big hairy spider. Lizard wouldn't freak me out after I got over it dropping on me.

The only thing that would make this hilarious post funnier would be if the OP could post a ride photo showing her in mid-fling!!!

I've moved this thread to the Trip Reports board.

A BAT??? Dear God I hadn't even given that a thought. **shudder**. I really think if I hadn't been all adrenalined up from the ride I'd have lost my mind. I really wonder where the story "I got hit in the back of the head by a flying creature on ToT is...."

Someday, my children, I will tell you the terrifying tale of the night I took the bus home to the resort from Downtown Disney, while the rest of my family beat me home after walking to TRex, building a dinosaur, walking back to the boatlaunch and catching the bus back to the resort......
