Episode Details

Behind every blockbuster Disney ride lies a hidden powerhouse: Rando Productions, the small LA-based shop that’s quietly built the mechanical heart of Disneyland’s most iconic attractions. From spinning Kylo Ren in Rise of the Resistance to the breakaway walls in Spider-Man’s stunts, this team of engineers and creatives—started in 1983 with Rose Parade floats—has been crafting Disney’s immersive magic for over two decades. Now expanding globally to Tokyo, Hong Kong, and Shanghai, they’ve even built Tomorrowland’s pretzel stand and LED rockwork. With 30+ specialists pushing the limits of fabrication and motion, Rando proves that Disney’s magic isn’t just in the story—it’s in the sweat, skill, and steel behind the scenes.
