Walt Disney is Buried Beneath the Pirates of the Caribbean Ride


Walt Disney is one of the most interesting entrepreneurs and not just because he thwarted lung cancer via cryogenic freezing. (Yes folks, he is in fact interred beneath Pirates of the Caribbean, the last ride he helped design, which opened three months after his death in the spring of 1967.)


Location of the Hidden Staircase on the Pirates of the Caribbean Ride


I believe Walt Disney embodies the visionary spirit of American entrepreneurship: here is a guy who started with the sketch of a mouse and turned it into a multi-billion dollar business, starting with animated shorts, leading to full-length features and merchandising and finally to happiness-coma inducing theme parks which cause patrons to forget how much they have spent on turkey legs and mouse ears. The parks continue to metastasize just as Walt wanted, they will never stop growing.

The next time you attend a Disney theme park remember, it all started from the simple sketch of a mouse, and when you ride Pirates, look for the hidden staircase tucked behind and to the right, just after the first drop.

Your blog is very informative. Eating mindfully has been very hard for people these days. It's all because of their busy schedules, work or lack of focus on themselves. As a student I must admit that I have not been eating mindfully but because of this I will start now. It could help me enjoy my food and time alone. Eating mindfully may help me be aware of healthy food and appreciating food.
