I have a Cast Member Secret for you twitch. Ready? I love disco. I'm the tallest in my class. And yes, I was that one strange kid in your kindergarten class that ate brown crayons thinking it was chocolate. That is all.
Jungle Cruise skippers really are the best! :)
Thanks!

The only other attraction that I can think of that gives the guests anywhere near the same time with a cast member is the Storybook Land Canal Boats, but even then, I don't think you get the same level of "playful interaction" as you do with the Jungle Cruise. Long may she sail!

At the end of the ride, did I thank you (and call you by the wrong name?) (And promptly get mocked by the skipper of the boat in front of us for my outburst of laughter?!?)
THAT WAS YOU WHO THREW OUT THE RANDOM OUTBURST!!! I was your skipper- Cassie.

5 months?! What?! That sounds about right.

HA!
Thanks for the great ride, Malcolm.
(Sorry... I forgot the name of the other cast member you gave us.)
And yes... our skipper was definitely Cassie. I did remember your name, but wasn't sure if posting it here was right.
I'd just like to point out that I did NOT cross over to the DOHK side, even though it meant waiting for several slower people at the back of the boat to get out.
So... now I'm intrigued. What's the big deal about walking across the crates? Are they simply not built to be load-bearing?

I'm pretty sure it has to do with not wanting anybody to trip and fall. It's safer to walk around the crates than over them.

Crossing over the center crates is a fire hazard. Here, lemme explain: You cross over the crates, you'll trip and fall, I'll point and laugh, and then I'll get fired. Crossing over crates is hazardous to my job, as you can see I no longer work there, so PUH LEEZE listen to all CMs so they don't lose their jobs.
Actually, if you cross over the crates, you might hit your head on one of the speakers above and soon find they are very hard . . . to replace. You try walking into a Radio Shack asking for parts to a '71 speaker system, not gonna happen. So please do us a favor, and keep our repair bills small and we'll keep your ticket prices affordable . . . riiiight.

I'm beginning to wonder...is there a Jungle Cruise that is only famous in one country? Or a state? Is there an even better one that is known through out the solar system?
Okay, I've gotten it out of my system. Please continue...

Also, you could hit your head off of those lamps and blackout, become lightheaded... truthfully, it's not a bright idea.
In all truth, it is a safety hazard.
