Park Hopping...All 4 parks in 1 Day.

I've done it and it felt a little overwhelming. I think if I was driving myself it wouldn't be sooo crazy. We started the day at AK and hit everest (took a cab there in the morning), then bussed to DHS and rode TT, TSM and RnR, we walked to EPCOT and did the WS. At this point we went back to the resort for a break by bus. Around 4:30 pm we headed to MK for the evening and stayed until close to 1:00 am. I'm not sure I would repeat this, but it certainly is possible.
 
I subjected myself to a four park challenge in June 2013 when I had a solo day. To make it count (in my mind). I had to do at least 3 rides or shows per park, and either eat or drink
something at each park. I started by taking the bus to AK, hopped on the bus again to the MK. Then off on the monorail to EPCOT. I was in line for the boats at the international gateway
to go to the Studios when a thunderstorm brewed shutting down the boats. I walked over to the Beach club and took the bus to the Studios.
I did succeed in experiencing at least 3 rides or shows per park, and having a snack, meal or beverage per park. It was great fun and because I was alone I was able to go at my own
pace without anyone holding me back. I would do it again!

That sounds like great time!
 
My husband flew to Florida on a business trip in September and did all 4 parks in a day. He had FP+ at Epcot. His goal was to do a roller coaster in each park and make it to all his FP+. He drove from the airport to Animal Kingdom, arriving at 11am and did single rider line for Everest. He then drove to Epcot and did single rider line for test track and all three of his FP+. Took the boat to Hollywood Studios where he did single rider line for RRC, then it was back to Epcot where he hoped on the monorail to the MK and rode 7DMT. I thought his plan was to only go to Epcot so I was very surprised when he sent me a text that contained 4 selfies......one of him at each park. He had a blast, even managed to get a margarita in Mexico and a beer in Germany!

Thats great! Will you try it with him in the future?

I think a break will be needed as well for us. MK is opened till 1am that night, hoping to do this same thing!
 

I've done all four in a day and often do 3 in a day. Most of the time, I'm solo when I try to do more than 2 parks in a day, because it makes things much easier. In addition, most of my solo trips are long weekends, so I'm trying to get as much done as possible in a short amount of time. Planning ahead and having a touring plan makes it much easier! Here's an example for my trip next month. Because I go pretty often I don't feel the need to do EVERYTHING in each park, so I just highlight my favorite things.

Animal Kingdom- Opens at 8:00 am
Kilimanjaro Safari
Expedition Everest
Dinosar

Disney Hollywood Studios
Tower of Terror FP+ - 11-12pm
Rockin' Rollercoaster- FP+ 12-1pm
Grab a carrot cake cookie and say goodbye to the Writer's Stop :(
Star Tours FP+ 1:15-2:15pm

Magic Kingdom open until midnight (Meet up with my dad)
Festival of Fantasy Parade (hopefully)
Whatever rides my dad wants to go on
Tonys Town Square- 5:55pm
