Lol honestly I would have loved to be on the boat as it sunk. It was be a unique story of being walked off a ride after a break down. I suspect Disney prob gave everyone fresh clothes but i wonder if they have to replace a bunch of phones cameras and such, that could be pretty high compensation for some people. Now me I would have been like hey can i get 2 more APs?

I think this is 1 of 2 jungle cruise boats that allows for wheelchair/ECV guests. If confirmed, then I would expect those guests that need the ramp for wheelchair/ECV will have to wait a little longer for a boat.

Jungle Cruise just became the most immersive experience at WDW! H/T to my 13yo Ds.

That is the kind of submersive experience you can only get at Disney.

Bob has been the Captain for less than 48 hours and we already have a sinking ship. I heard many people predict this but I never thought they were talking in such literal terms.

Disney fans: we want classic attractions back!

Chapek: ok, how's about 20,000 Leaguea under the Jungle Cruise?
