I saw a documentary recently about these two women who have lived their whole lives trying to be the closest thing to a mermaid. They've both had realistic, prosthetic tails made and can hold their breath underwater for minutes at a time. They deep sea dive with their tails and it's natural to them both. This job would be PERFECT for them if they still had this ride. They should bring it back and employ those women.

oh so this was really a ride at disney?? i just remembered back when i was 5 or 6, when my family went to disney, i was sitting on this chair looking out the window, and there were mermaids swimming outside more like dancing!. so this was it? how cool. sucks why they took this out.
that disneyland looks so awesome i just read a book about every detail of the old disney!! and i i wish i was there! it was a little more risky but aweeesooomme!!
they got rid of it because the girls were getting sick from bacteria in the water and because tourists would jump in to get pictures with the "mermaids" i know this for a fact, i read it in a book about disneyland and facts about the rides
This was an actual ride at disneyland. I don't know if its still there or not.
I remember going on it 15 years ago when I was a kid. The "mermaids" would take breaths of air from scuba gear/air tanks so they could stay down there for hours.
It was AMAZING. Things aren't what they use to be...
It's just sad that they had to stop due to the fact that the water was highly chlorinated and the mermaid womens' hair turned green. Green haired mermaids are cool though, but when your off duty, it would be weird.
the one doing her makeup is awesome! I love the fact that none of them have stupid air supplies. They just preform like mermaidsw tih their natural breath holding talent ^_^
well....i would say that it is fake cuz mermaids tails are like smooth and flat and those were like not flat and the girl that was sittingshe had a little point and a blush thingy so i could tell that the point was her nees in side
in 1820 a man named fredrick osloft one day he was working in his lab until a ghost came by and killed him the next morning fredrick was nowhere to be seen 100 years later two boys went in the lab as a dare the boys where never seen again where aparently murdered now that u have read this comment tonight when u go to sleep the two boys and fredrick will come and murder you but you can stop this by posting this comment on 5 other videos by midnigh
yah, it was the gases.Amazingly no mermaid ever drowned. they were thinking of making it a "Little mermiad" ride but in the went with a more modern story.
There were no robots. Every so often, the ladies would come up to the surface to breathe. No one died. They took the mermaids away because the actresses would get sick from the chlorine and the diesel fumes of the submarines.
you're right, but did you know that's only half the reason?
the other half is guys would actually dive into the submarine lagoon for the mermaids. of course, they were escorted out of the park by the cast members. but it happened VERY often.
however, i didn't know it had to do with the submarines (only looked it up after i read this cuz i didn't think it was true to be honest)
They shouldn't let the mermaids swim the whole day, only on like special or certain hours like 1-2 hours a day and let other mermaids rotate. I'm sure it would work if they tried that out, hopefully they'll bring it back in the future with better technology not trying to harm mermaids :)
Oh yeah, I'm sure that the mermaids were on a rotation. But we don't know how strong the chemicals were in the water. Perhaps even an hour in the water could have start side effects.
Yeah with less technology back then, I'm sure the chlorine was pretty hazardous. But we have better chlorine in our pools today, and people would spend more than 2 hours swimming in it and they are fine (if you look at it that way).
@AriaInTheSky Yah! I remember when I was 6 and that I was taken to Disneyland for the first time (circa '88, late 80's), there were REAL women, and I always told my mom, "they are B E A U T I F U L !". She often joked with my aunts and dad that when I grew up, I'd break a window inside the sub and go flirt with them.
@AriaInTheSky Did you ever see the dolls that replaced the actresses? there are some videos here. They look CREEPY! heheh. That's why I call them "possessed dolls".
other than visits to the surface to wave at the guests, behind several rocks and kelp there were air bubbles coming up. Actually, they were oxygen hoses. Girls would swim over there and breath from them. But some of the girls didn't always take the breaks they should have... a few died. That's when they replaced the mermaids with robots.
I've been on it as a kid, but yeah the submarine ride and the cars you could drive were always breaking down. Good times. Matterhorn, space mtn and pirates still awesome last time i was there (1995)
i believe that they got rid of it(broke down too much)..if it is there it would be at the starwar experence near the autopia..it is on a track and it is like one story above ground, and it is either the loudest thing there, or it is broken :D
Yeah, I believe that it used to be the peoplemover. I miss THAT slowasheck ride. It was slow, but you could go "through" Space Mountain!! I got a picture of it once with the lights on, from the peoplemover!!! Yay me!!
Bwahahaha I have to go on this thing now. And I had no idea there was a car that did that O.O;;; Which one is that? Just for future reference of course. *grins*
lol i got so freaked out with that damn snowman! but this was like 10years ago from when it was last operational (before they reopened it i believe last year)
o_o They reopened it? Thank god I'm going this Summer, that's going to be awesome!
Yeah, that thing TERRIFIED me. I had horrible nightmares the first time I went on the Matterhorn. I remember going back when I was eighteen or nineteen and being all, "LET'S SEE WHAT YOU'VE GOT SNOWMAN D<" and then going, "... I was scared of this?"
just taking up some space so that others dont have to deal with this spew of hatred toward one anothers!
i remember as a child when i went to disneyland and rode the "yellow submarine" from what i recall i saw the mermaids were getting air through plastic tubes that is how they were able to stay under so long
I don't remember ever riding it. I remember being on the Monorail seeing the tracks under the water for the ride and wondering what it was for, but I never was actually on it.
I was too busy being afraid of the Abominable snowman on the Matterhorn x_x

Lets all talk about mermaids now. No more talking about god or gays. X.x
Yes the mermaids were women that worked at Disney Land, but were taken off due to health issues with the gas fumes of the subs and sunburn....

But, God created the mermaids which make me feel so gay! (Sorry, had to). XD

I've been on it as a kid, but yeah the submarine ride and the cars you could drive were always breaking down. Good times. Matterhorn, space mtn and pirates still awesome last time i was there (1995)

I wonder how they did this?

i believe that they got rid of it(broke down too much)..if it is there it would be at the starwar experence near the autopia..it is on a track and it is like one story above ground, and it is either the loudest thing there, or it is broken :D

lol i got so freaked out with that damn snowman! but this was like 10years ago from when it was last operational (before they reopened it i believe last year)
marpool 3 years ago
o_o They reopened it? Thank god I'm going this Summer, that's going to be awesome!
Yeah, that thing TERRIFIED me. I had horrible nightmares the first time I went on the Matterhorn. I remember going back when I was eighteen or nineteen and being all, "LET'S SEE WHAT YOU'VE GOT SNOWMAN D<" and then going, "... I was scared of this?"

just taking up some space so that others dont have to deal with this spew of hatred toward one anothers!
i remember as a child when i went to disneyland and rode the "yellow submarine" from what i recall i saw the mermaids were getting air through plastic tubes that is how they were able to stay under so long

I don't remember ever riding it. I remember being on the Monorail seeing the tracks under the water for the ride and wondering what it was for, but I never was actually on it.
I was too busy being afraid of the Abominable snowman on the Matterhorn x_x

lol, the 8th largest submarine fleet next to turkey.
But seriously what's with some of these comments I thought the video was about mermaids not about homosexuals or god.

It WAS about mermaids until someone decided to unload his butthurt views on Disney being all about gays now.
