Disneyland Dedication

[TotalPirateLuvva]

@ThatTheatreFreak it would be bad if it didn't

[TheSpiralOrder]

He didn't need fireworks, or a parade, or anything. The entire opening day celebration could have been that speech, and it would have been the greatest opening day celebration ever. Because those words are true.

[ThatTheatreFreak]

Is it bad that this made me cry?

[petertedonefilm]

Still have not been to Disneyland. Disney World, lots, but not the original. To be in the park that Walt actually walked through will be a huge thrill when it happens.

[MayPhoenix]

Happy Anniversary, Disneyland! Happiest Place on Earth...I miss you so much.

[blanc10]

Happy Birthday Disneyland!

[HHGFHJGFHJGFJTYFJDGY]

Happy 56th Anniversary Disneyland! - July 17th 2011!!!!

[Liveloveplayad]

Short-sweet-simple- and memorable and filled with more meaning than most of my generation can possibly comprehend.

[UberWagen]

And if he turned on Disney XD or the Disney channel today, he would be ashamed. Almost angered I bet.

[BrightHeart76]

To all who come to this happy place. Welcome. Says it all right there.

[steventucker80]

[HHGFHJGFHJGFJTYFJDGY]

Happy 55th Anniversary Disneyland!!!! July 17th 2010

[laangles2002]

The greatest opening dedication speeches of all time.

We all miss you! And what would Walt Disney say to Disneyland, California Adventure, Magic Kingdom, EPCOT, Hollywood Studios, & Animal Kingdom? What took you so long. I hope to see you in the afterlife.

[HHGFHJGFHJGFJTYFJDGY]

if walt lived longer and epcot materialized, walt may have become president and truly achieved his dreams of changing the world

[CCrockyourass]

Damn modern society. Damn them. Some of the best rides at Disneyland were changed because of mothers complaining it scared their children, so they replaced them with generic happy rides.

[JazziiMeee]

This video had me drowning in my own tears by the end. Thank you so very much for uploading this.

Walt Disney was superhuman. Dare I say it, he may be my greatest hero and inspiration. I grew up watching his movies, going to his theme parks, and living my childhood to the absolute fullest.

Bless Walt for bringing so much joy to many children and families.

[Jackieblackcat]

[squishyfroggie]

i could not have said it any better. i was also crying at the end of this. my whole life, disney has been the one thing that has been the one thing to make me happier than anything else has been able to.

[nattybrown]

Walt Disney was an amazingly and insperation man, I love his movies and going to Disneyland too. I wish he could see what he has achieved!

[CaptainCretaceous91]

@JazziiMeee Indeed. Because of Walt and his legacy, magic really does exist.

May you Rest in peace Walt. Thanks so much for giving ur magic to the world. :)

[jar0fdirt63]

He truly changed America with Disneyland:)

[DLRrecords]

[jginorio]

What a world this place would be if Walkt Disney were President of United States....(It's cool we've got Barack, but I've always dreamed about "what if Disney didn't die?")

[yumyums4530]

[InsertName03]

Life without Disney would never be the same! I love Disneyland favorite theme park, I watch Disney Channel favorite channel, I even listen to Radio Disney (Sometime I like and stuff) he opened so many doors for us to enjoy, to bad he couldn't see what an amazing job he did for us all!

RIP: Walt Disney

You'll always be remembered!

[trhpeanut13]

Walt was, and always will be an amazing man.

Life without him, what he had created, well, i know there would be a Big peice of myself missing if it never happened.

He is a true Inspiration to us all, that dreams can come true..No matter what...No matter who you are, or what you do.

"All our dreams can come true, if we have the courage to pursue them."

One of my favorite Walt disney quotes.

But, his opening speach will always send shivers down my spine, and bring a tear to my eye.

[trhpeanut13]

He will forever live in our hearts.

Thank you, Walt.

And thank you, Freedogshampoo for uploading all of this.

[DLRrecords]

[Disneytwinkie55]

[alfredgoovermon]

[AnEleatic]

This quote makes me cry every time I view it.

[icyclaw123]

My most favorite Walt Disney quote :)

[metaltermite12]

dude love it big disney fan

[mailorderchic627]

I used this quote for my conclusion of my tribute speech to this amazing man. It's sad that he's no longer with us, but as long as the spirit of his ideas lives on, then he'll still be here. :D

[ddude924]

Right on. Walt may be gone, but his spirit lives in his parks. Always remember "Disneyland will never be completed. It will continue to grow as long as there is imagination left in the world"

[9535642]

to all who come to this happy place WAFFLE

i seriously dont here welcome at all, just waffle

[Skidzj]

Oh my gosh... Waffle... That's awesome.

[ButterflyBlanket]

I recently did a report on Walt Disney, and I had to read a biography on him. After I read the sentence where he passed away, I started to cry.

Truly, this man was amazing.

Thanks for posting! :D

[ddude924]

last year, in my english class, we were assigned to read a biography as well, but we were not told what the actual work part would be. I picked Walt Disney, thinking it would be awesome to write a report on a man i consider such an inspiration. When we were told what to do, I was in total shock, but in a good way. We had to dress up like our character, bring a prop, and "tell our story." It was kool. for my prop, i brought in a stuffed mickey, and i did the best i could to dress up like walt.

[Spellcaster94]

Walter Elias Disney, you rock!

[HottieSuperBom]

gives me the chills

[HottieSuperBom]

[PieceofBitch139]

[Spellcaster94]

Why yes, I do believe it is.

[DisneyBeliever]

This man has a beautiful mind. I was in tears when i found out this man had died! and yet his spirit still lives in my heart and my kids' hearts.

[SoraSuzume]
