Intro music

Hey. It's Disney World, and it's magic hours, which means nobody is here, so we get to ride everything. But we've always had this fear of Space Mountain; that if you put your arms up, you'll get 'em chopped off. So we got this trick we do, show 'em man. This is what we do, because at Space Mountain, there's absolutely no way you can get your arms chopped off if you do "little arms," we call it.

Let's be honest: this is why you go to Disney World, right here. We're the last ones to ride Space Mountain tonight.

Recording over PA: Remain seated, and keep your hands, arms, feet and legs inside the rocket. And watch your children. You're clear for launch!

Girl 1: Wahoo!

Girl 2: Yay!

Destin: Awesome!

Screaming

Screaming

Destin: Well done!

Destin: Nice!

Hey, it's me, Destin, and I met some really cool workers at Space Mountain. And they're gonna tell you something you didn't know, so you can get Smarter Every Day.

Destin: Tell me something about Space Mountain.

Emily: It's 27 miles an hour (both sides) on the track.

Lesly: Contrary to popular belief, "A side" and "B side" are Alpha and Omega. They are the same.

Destin: Space Mountain is the same - it's symmetric. I didn't know that. Do you know something else?

Katie: Sure. There is no Rocket #13.

Destin: There's no Rocket #13?

Katie: We have one through twelve, and then sixteen to thirty-one.

Destin: That's awesome! Does anybody else know anything?

Emily: Your hands will not get chopped off if you go like this-

Interrupting

Lesly: Yes! You can put your hands in the air!

Emily: You can put your hands in the air.

Destin: I have been scared ALL WEEK about putting my hands up, and they said they won't get chopped off.

Lesly: But don't put 'em up in the tunnel. Wait until you get out of the tunnel-

Interrupting

Destin: You have to be out of the tunnel. 'Cause we can touch the tunnel. Alright.

Laughs

Chelsea: Only attraction with no hidden Mickeys.

Destin: No hidden Mickeys?

Chelsea: No hidden Mickeys. It was also built in 1975 and has been the same track since 1975.

Destin: Really?

Chelsea: It's completely designed by Walt Disney and took 10 years to build.

Destin: That's awesome!

Group applauds

Repeating

Destin: That's awesome! Destin: Thanks, guys. Have a great one.

Staff: You're welcome. Have a great weekend!

Staff: Bye.

Flamboyant

You are getting smarter every day.

Destin: Dude, there's people everywhere scared of getting their arms chopped off. What's up with that? Look at these people!
