Only minor injuries. Rumor has it the boat won't be out for fantasmic tonight.

Apparently "Dopey" was a wee bit too "Dopey" on Sunday night. Perhaps he/she was pre-gaming for SIN (Service Industry Night) LOL. My wife almost laughed herself unconscious when she saw this video.

I haven't found my way to laugh at this video since encountering it yesterday. All that comes to mind is how close we came to finding out how well someone could swim in that costume. My guess is not well at all. It might not be as bad as the scenario was imagining. How deep is the water?

Seems to be the depth of the water varies from 1.5 feet to 6 feet.

They should just replace Fantasmic with World of Color, this way no more Dwarfs need to be injured. I feel bad for those little guys, they have to work in the mines all day and then do Fantasmic shows at night. It must be tough.

Wet Dopey costumes must be pretty damn heavy to try and move through the water, whether treading or wading. Plus, the potential danger of being stuck under the hull.

It was a bit of a lucky bounce.

Oh for sure. Here's a video of Mickey Scuba Diving in Coral Reef. I wish there was video of him actually moving. I'm thinking the head would have to be made of something different than what you see in the parks. Interesting.

I can't say I laughed at all at this video as it seems like Dopey was inches away from being seriously hurt and I immediately thought about potential ramifications job-wise here...
