abound Kelleher dad welcome to
watchmojo.com one by one before we begin
we publish new videos every day
so be sure to subscribe for more great
content in today’s installment we’re
counting down the top 5 myths about
Disney one of the biggest myths the one
that Walt Disney was cryogenically
frozen but we already talked all about
that in our top 10 myths about American
icons video but while business out on
the pond then wake it up fear not though
Mouseketeers there’s still plenty left
for us to debunk on behalf of this Magic
Kingdom sort of a mistake it’s all wrong
it’s all wrong myth number 5 Walt
Disney’s famous quote if you can dream
it you can do it like any other massive
corporation Disney has weathered its
fair share of criticism over the years
everyone let me stop fighting I won’t
Disney created you to spread happiness
not bigotry but Disney has arguably done
a lot of good over the years to be it’s
in their partnership with the
make-a-wish Foundation or just their
general ability to inspire Walt Disney’s
legacy has kept magic alive for
generations of kids teaching them that
anything is possible the man behind the
magic has had numerous inspirational
quotes attributed to him over the years
but sadly many of them were not his own
words traumatic now at this particularly
poignant line was actually written by
Disney employee Tom Fitzgerald in the
1980s for the Epcot ride horizon for his
part Fitzgerald has called the
misattribution amusing but flattering
myth number four a disgruntled employee
drew a penis as part of the Little
Mermaid Castle and now her final touch
Disney has frequently been accused of
subliminal sexual messages you’ve got
that hard to hear line in Aladdin on 13
pick up clock now the reported se X in
the Lion King and of course the presence
of penises in the Little Mermaid
did the priest have an erection no
apparently he just had no Bellinis
but the phallic-shaped spire of the
castle on the theatrical poster and
cover is hard to explain rumors
circulated that it was an intentional
move by a disgruntled Disney employee
who had received his notice of
termination but it wasn’t even a Disney
employee who drew the image the job was
outsourced and according to the artist
it was totally accidental a result of
him rushing to meet a deadline myth
number three Donald Duck was banned in
Finland for not wearing pants why is it
that Donald Duck where is a top and no
bottom whereas Nicki where is a bottom
and no talk you may be too young to
remember this one but according to
legend donald duck’s exposed bottom was
simply too much to bear for the people
of Finland and so he was banned it makes
for a funny story but any media outlet
that reported this particular incident
should be regarded as a bunch of quacks
because Finland never established any
such policy in reality a local party
representative mr. Marco Holopainen
simply suggested that the city stop
purchasing Donald Duck comics for the
community youth centers as a means of
cutting costs during in the economic
downturn but when elections rolled
around in 1978 he was labeled as the man
who banned Donald Duck and the media run
with it will you just relax pretty much
myth number two no one can be declared
dead on the premises you’ve never been
the Disneyland and that’s the happiest
place on earth
Disney is allegedly so concerned with
the reputation of their theme parks that
they force paramedics to remove bodies
from the grounds before declaring them
dead we have to take him to the doctor
while Disney likely does everything
possible to keep the death toll down
even they don’t have the clown support
this sort of arrangement when someone
dies in their theme park it’s a matter
for police and paramedics just like
anywhere else in some states paramedics
can’t declare death until the body is
brought to the hospital in others it can
be called on-site whether or not Disney
encourages paramedics to delay that
declaration until they’ve left the
premise is still hotly debated
the truth is people have been declared
dead within the parks on multiple
occasions
welcome to Magic Kingdom myth number one
Walt Disney designed Mickey Mouse ie
while Walt Disney is credited with the
creation of Mickey Mouse he was not the
man to actually design him so not true
that Disney created man in his own image
after the loss of Oswald the rabbit to
Universal what was desperate for a
replacement and came up with the idea of
a mouse named Mortimer his wife
allegedly hated the name and suggested
Mickey as a more fitting moniker
he took the concepts at uyb iWork who in
1928 designed the first recognizable
interation of the character we know
today including his trademark shorts
with a large button and the circular
head and ears for a mouse yeah let’s do
that in 1929 the white gloves got added
in 1938 animator Fred Moore made
Mickey’s body more pear-shaped and
introduced the modern eyes as well as
the skin tone face hole pie so did you
