I'm beginning to think that Disney was ok with Mark 3d scanning Space Mountain

[CrystalKStearns]

RIP Grant Imahara. We miss you Mythbuster. It's so cool to see his contribution to Disney Imagineering.

[Asturien]

Wasn't expecting to cry, but the Grant photos were a gut punch.

[TJ-jmhl]

Didn’t expect to see a picture of Grant and tear up a little. I miss him.

THESE WERE THE VIDEOS WE WERE LOOKING FOR

[Endicer]

Being an Imagineer is probably my dream job. I want to do engineering and/or animation and I feel like they do a great job with stuff like that

[Sergeantmajormario]

8:02 I don't know why, but the fact that they have a Nintendo Wii Nunchuck to move around a Disney Infinity figurine despite having access to millions in funding and controllers is really cool to me

[EelcoPeterzen]

They control those (ridiculously cute) droids with Steam Decks? That is so awesome. I'm guessing this is where imagineers become Henson studio-like puppeteers as well.

[BigThreeChiu]

Never get tired of watching Imagineering videos! So excited that you and Cleo get to experience the magic up close and keep creating it for all of us

Bro touring that place is one of my dreams!!! I love imagineers and what they have done with the theme parks and what they did for my childhood! I grew up going to Disney world so many times and I remember being so immersed in the worlds and stories there. Imagineers have my utmost respect

[EazymoneyBicch]

Dude, those lil robots are soo dope!!!!

[MrFester]

As a kid I wanted sooo much to be an imagineer, but it wasn't in the cards. I'm 62 now and STILL turn into a wide-eyed child around such creative, fun, and mind-blowing things. Knowing more just makes it that much more impressive. Thank you to ALL the people that bring this magic to life!

This is so cool, and even though disney has been putting out some stinkers recently, I'm happy to know that at least somewhere, there's a group of people that are truly passionate about what they do.

Rip grant imahara we will be deeply missed you, thank you for building up robots for Disney and that little R2-D2 too.❤

[SpookimsWasHere]

I went to a trip with some friends and got to meet some imagineers behind the scenes. They were amazing, and it was so intriguing to learn about their jobs. I don’t really remember exactly what they were working on, as it was 2 years ago. It was apparently pretty cool by how my friends saw it

[pjleroy]

Those little robots are by far the coolest real world example of Nvidia's reinforcement learning software in action I have seen yet. That and general dynamics showed off a robot break dancing, maybe they win. Disney's wins the cute factor

[JonReevesLA]

Shout out to Cleo Abram who got her video of this tour up a few days ago, with some slightly different insights -- the mini-droid walk cycles, for example, are based on ducklings, and she talks a lot more about the light saber.

[DorianToddYT]

Now I want to be an Imagineer! This type of robotics and engineering is genuinely so exciting!

[cipher_revelat]

ACTUALLY SQUALED AT THE DROIDS THEY'RE SO CUTE 🥺

[SANITIZEDINC]

Wait -- are you telling me that "Imagineering" is a combination of "imagination" and "engineering"? Wow. You learn something new every day.
