What secret tributes can be found in Big Grizzly Mountain to several attractions that came before it?
In this episode of Distory with Kate & Kirk, we laugh our way through the creative storytelling of Hong Kong Disneyland's Big Grizzly Mountain Runaway Mine Cars. Starting with the backstory of Grizzly Gulch's resident bears (and a huge gold nugget), we then move through into the ride to find some incredible details in the queue that not only honor Chinese culture but are also a throwback to the detailed history of Big Thunder Mountain Railroad that we've been uncovering throughout this series. Kirk asks some inappropriate questions about bears, Kate laughs at his fictional niece, we learn a little about sawmills and stoves, and find some magnificent crates that hold a few nods to previously explored places. After going for a thrilling ride in an unlucky mine, we meet three curious bears, remember Marc Davis, and find a number that has reversed its meaning from the one we found in Disneyland's Big Thunder.
