I Can Top All The SGs!!

Looking at screamscape today, I came across this:

Screamscape reader caught an interesting event on his cell phone camera the other night at Epcot as a park guest decided he was going to try to climb to the top of the Mexico pavilion. Making the event a little more scary to guests was the fact that as they got near the top they started to yell “I’m gonna jump!” over and over. Before security or any other CM could arrive on the scene to do anything about it, they quickly climbed down and vanished into the crowd once again. Knowing how fast Disney security usually is, I kind of find it unusual that the crazy climber wasn’t caught. Enjoy the photos.

Go Go Go!

Weird, When I saw that building the first thing that came to my mind was "I wonder if anyone has every tried to climb it?"

Now there is my answer. lol

Yeah, but Disney would get the snot sued out of 'em for having an "attractive nusiance."

When I stayed at the Disney's Coronado Springs Resort. A ground of SG were at the Dig Pool site and decided to climb the parymid and get kicked out after the life guards and security warned them to get off of it. SG Alert!! You are a dummy! If you slip, your are beyond stupid folks!!! :twisted:

Ktulu, I really like you & all :) but considering you are built like a Steeler's linebacker, the sombrero seems a bit over the top. ;)

I will admit, it is quite tempting to climb the Mexico pavilion...even without alcoholic encouragement. But it's only to use it as a point to sacrifice SGs. I mean, why have a Mayan temple there if you're not going to? It could be a show...
