  • DISCLAIMER I had filmed this episode a while back and never got around the releasing the footage until now! I am still practicing Social Distancing! Thank you! I get the question "How and Why did you move to Orlando, FL?" So here is a full episode of me explaining exactly how and why I decided to become a Floridian! Let's take a closer look!
    Hello and welcome to the World of Micah! I travel around filming everything and anything I find interesting -from theme parks to abandoned urban exploring. If you enjoy learning more about Disney history, tips & secrets or a fan of Disney World nostalgia you have come to the right place. I also enjoy showing Universal Studios history and taking a look of what’s left of from classic attractions like JAWS and ‪Back to the Future‬. More of an Urban Exploring fan? I travel around Central Florida and film everything from abandoned Toys “R” Us stores to abandoned attractions.
    Let’s take a closer look!

    How awesome that you worked on the Great Movie Ride just like you told your family as a kid you would. This attraction was also my favorite at MGM and I rode on it with my mom when I was an adult in the 80's/90's. Great memories.

      Marie Quinn it’s the greatest ride ever! No pun intended! Super cool to have experienced it before it was gone. That’s for sure.

    I just want to say it been a long time since I commented on any channel. I am sorry for that. I went into a serious state of depression. I just want to say this episode really hit home for me. I feel the same way about Orlando. In fact I lived in Apopka and worked at Disney Blizzard Beach in the mid 90s and like you due to family I had to back home too. I hope one day to move back. BTW. I know I was supposed to a video for you about your 5k give away. I still plan on doing something in the next month or two. I haven’t forgotten. I just been in a bad place. I will let you know once it is available. Don’t feel like you have to do anything in return. I promised that I would and I will. Congrats on crushing the 10k mark. Keep up the great work. You definitely deserve more subs than you have. Take care be safe.

    I did spring 2011 and also left the program early so funny coincidence. I did the behind the scenes tour of great movie ride. It was awesome all the secrets of that ride

    loved the discussion today Micah, thanks so much! I had no idea there was a Disney Internship program... telling us about your experiences there would make a fantastic vid discussion... I have never been to Florida and never got to ride The Great Movie Ride, but I have watched every vid I could find on it.!

    @999Adventures Před 4 lety +1

    So much makes sense now. I first came across you and your channel from a few of Adam's videos. Specifically the one where you two are going around Hollywood Studios talking about the history and secrets from 2016. Videos like that played a major role in me deciding to capture my own magic. Man, I can only imagine how great working on the GMR was, I loved that ride so much, still do. I don't recall if you specifically said but did you play the gangster role as well? I know you mentioned Michael saying your were taking his home. Since that ride is no longer, it would be cool to hear the story of how the scene was reset, like how you got back to your post in the gangster scene after going though the wall. How many gangsters or cowboys would be in rotation to keep up with the ride vehicles. Anyways, sorry for the rant, thanks for sharing!

    • @worldofmicah
      @worldofmicah  Před 4 lety +1

      999 Adventures there’s a lot to how that great movie ride worked. It was so chaotic to the naked eye but made total sense when you saw the big picture. Maybe one day I’ll share some stories and some behind the scenes trivia...

    Micah, just discovered your channel, great vlog. I'm down the turnpike a few hours south here in Boca. Seems everyone who moved to FL from another state has an interesting story to tell. Anyway , just subbed you, hope you'll check out my FL centered channel as well as I'm looking to grow. Cheers and stay well!
