I have only had two rides at Walt Disney World get stopped while I was on them in all my trips. The Universe of Energy in Epcot’s Future World was one of them and the only one I was asked to leave the ride vehicle to be escorted out of the ride. This gave me an opportunity to photograph the large audio-animatronic brontosaurus dinosaurs without worrying about being in a moving ride vehicle (you can see the ride’s track in the lower right of the photo). The diorama makes for a unique Disney Pic of the Week about the Universe of Energy.

  1. Lovely photo – hope you weren’t escorted off the ride because you were being naughty lol

    Scott replies: Oh, no, no, no. I was being good. The ride vehicles had stopped and after 15 minutes of trying to get it restarted, CMs decided to evacuate the ride. However, since the ride was stopped, I felt the no flash rule was null and void. 🙂
