Former Disney Employees Share Fascinating Behind the Scenes Secrets

Guests Have No Manners

I started working at the Little Mermaid ride in The Magic Kingdom about a couple weeks after it opened. I worked there for 7 months as part of the college internship thing. It was a ton of fun and I’ll never need to go to Disney World again because I’ve been there so many times.

Anyway, the Little Mermaid ride actually broke multiple park records on attendance and speed of getting people through the line. That did not stop huge lines from appearing if people came in big enough crowds. (Seriously, if you see a Brazilian tour group at Disneyworld, just go a different direction.

You can look at any cast member’s face and see the rancor they harbor). One particularly hot and crowded day, I went on break and was walking to the secret underground Subway.

On my way there, I walk through the backstage side of all of the Little Mermaid ride. There are actually a few passages to the back, but they are pretty boring, and you’ll typically be seen pretty quickly. The problem is that those passages are still easily accessible and a large amount of guests actually think they are bathrooms.

As I walked past one of those doorways, I noticed a bit of a weird stain on the wall. I’m got closer and discovered a giant poop stain on the wall that lead to the ground with a huge pile of human feces. Like an adult had to have done this because of both the height of the stain and the sheer size of the turd. Either way, y’all guests can be nasty.
