How about Bill Clinton

Right you are, Ryley! One "Executive Order AAQ" to you!

 

[ryley26]

What is the height of Tower of Terror

 

[outlander]

199 ft.

ryley, are you the big ToT fan? Awhile back, someone said it was one of their favorite rides and I was thinking it was maybe you.

 

[ryley26]

Yes it makes my top three at WDW Also a vertical AAQ to you Outlander

 

[Mickey_Maniac]

Bump

I believe outlander is up...

 

[outlander]

Thanks MM, going with one of my sentimental favorites:

What is the height of the big drop on Splash Mountain?

 

[gometros]

Thanks MM, going with one of my sentimental favorites:

What is the height of the big drop on Splash Mountain?

Is it 49 feet?

 

[N10CJT]

Actually, I'm pretty sure it's 53 feet.

 

[outlander]

Wow, you guys are exacting!
I don't remember *exactly* what the height is in feet, I was just going for the scary sounding '5 story drop' descriptor.

49 & 53 are darn close! I'll drop you both an AAQ

keep us going!

 

[N10CJT]

Thanks Outlander. I don't like to look up the answers, but I did to confirm this one. Turns out I was 1/2 a foot off..... the correct answer is precisely 52 1/2 feet.
But let me keep things going with a question.........

What Disney World attraction required the development of technology more advanced than that utilized by NASA at that time?

 

[Mickey_Maniac]

That would be Mission:Space

 

[N10CJT]

The natural guess, but sorry, that's not it! Actually, that ride employs technology specifically designed for astronaut training. But it wasn't more advanced than what NASA had at the time.

 

[ryley26]

How about Space Mnt

 

[disneycruise05]

How about Test Track?

 

[N10CJT]

How about Test Track?

You got it, nice job! Believe it or not, the development of Test Track required incredible technological innovation that is now being employed by engineers outside of Disney!

An AAQ to the technocrat, DisneyCruise!

 

[disneycruise05]

Sticking with Test Track:

How many wheels are on each car?

 

[N10CJT]

Well I don't remember any more than four being visible. But of course all cars have steering wheels, and Test Track seats six. So I'm going to say that there are 10 wheels total.
(I could, of course, be omitting those on the roller track itself)

 

[outlander]

We have had this question recent enough that I really should remember the answer....but....I don't exactly. I know it was something crazy....

How about ..... 32?

 

[CheshireSmile]

I believe it's 22, but there's only 4 visible so the car looks 'normal'

 

[plutospup]

I'm thinking...16 wheels.
