49. Jungle Cruise Distory - Part 10 - Secrets of the Cambodian Temple
Description
What hard lesson did Marc Davis learn when he designed the Cambodian Temple of the Jungle Cruise?
In this episode of Distory, we dive deep into the history and secrets of the Jungle Cruise's Cambodian Temple. Along the way, we discover how the Imagineers "borrowed" some designs from actual temples in Cambodia, discuss the meaning of the statues, and encounter all kinds of monkeys from the playful to the sacred. After facing our fears of spiders and snakes, we take a quick jaunt back to the Haunted Mansion to investigate WED's fascination with rubber arachnids.
Join us LIVE on YouTube most Thursdays at 10:30am Pacific/1:30pm Eastern for more Distory!
