This is actually supposed to happen if the show is e-stopped. Each audio animatronic in this show has many sensors that tell how far it is leaning in each direction and if the animatronic is not behaving, the show is immediately stopped and the animatronic does what happens in the video to prevent damage.
Years ago, the hydralic fluid they used at the time to motivate him, was red... during a show it spung a leak... Well, lets say lincoln was bleeding bad. Now, they use clear fluid.
You may be surprised to hear this, but before the Civil War began, Lincoln's first act as president was to make the Limbo a mandatory act between the mintues of 2:10 and 2:11 PM every day.
i watched a recent documentary of walt disney and this happened in disneyland and at the time they were using red hydraulic fluid and a line burst and it went all over his shirt and looked like blood...they since changed to clear fluid....
I don't know if this broke down often or not, but my family was in a showing at Disneyland when this happened. Except his voice slowly dulled down into a mash of audio jibberjabber. I tell you what, my family jokes around about this even decades later.
@ace19901227 OOooH,That medicine the doctor gave me is taking affect while I give my famous speech while standing upright...I'll just Lean way backwackards for a nap
His speech keeps him doing the limbo(without a stick), while other presidents just sit/stand there doing nothing but to watch Lincoln doing the limbo. XD
in this afv episode, after this video is played, tom bergeron (i think that's how u spell it) says, "lincoln do the limbo!" i almost died laughing. LOL!!!
@sairfaxroolz813 it was the peoplemovers fault. at the time of this filming it was on the swame electrical circuit as the Hall Of Presidents so every time the peoplemover goes down Lincvoln does the limbo
The fact that he fell backwards is good. Both the Lincoln animatronic figure and the Washington one are designed to fold backwards like that, the chair is even breakaway which you can see if you look very carefully. Their was a travel channel special involving Disney Imagineering and how they designed them to do that..It was nifty.
I had worked for Disney and not that they don't have problems cause they do and Ive see first hand.... but this was the best yet! ha ha bet old Walt turned in his grave!
This was actually a good thing it fell backwards. Before this it had fallen sideways and the fluid inside of the audio-anamatronic was red at the time. Apparently one of the tubes broke and it caused him to crash. People actually thought that Disney had recreated the Lincoln Assassination. So Disney changed the fluid to white and tried to get the audio-anamatronics to fall backwards when they crash.
The imagineers said when they created it that when there is a malfunction before it happens its suppose to just drop into the seat like sit back down looks like he fell LOL.
@invisiblemonsterr actually the Peoplemover was the reason for this. (at the time of the video, Hall Of Presidents & the Peoplemover were on the same electric circuit thus if it breaks down it creates a domino effect to other attractions on that circuit.
Kind of looked like a slow motion attempt at imitating Neo and his dodging bullets technique. Unfortunately, you were a few years too late Mr. Lincoln.
Lincoln had to many before his speech!

The fact that he fell backwards is good.
