Disneyland 1967 - Adventure Thru Inner Space

[jeffkgregg]

I remember being in the line as a little boy for this ride, seeing those people getting into that tube thing and thinking they were really shrinking, and FREAKING THE HECK OUT. My poor dad had to leave the line with me, I was all I DON'T

Went on this ride back in the 60's with my father and grandmother. She never went beyond the 6th grade. When we were on this ride she just freaked she was so scared. It took awhile to settle her down a fter wards. Memories

Wish I could go back in time to spend a day at Disneyland in the 50's or 60's.

Can we just take a minute to recognize how awesome Paul Frees is?

My favorite part was the little tube that people to waiting the board the ride could see. It was in a straight line with the scars entering the ride, and showed the cars and their occupants already reduced to about 1/5 their size. Of course, if you looked carefully, you'd notice the occupants of the real ride didn't match up with the ones on the "miniaturized" ride. Still a fun illusion.

Up until 1982, most every attraction at Disneyland (and eventually Disney World) required a ticket. "A" tickets were the cheapest, "E" tickets the most expensive.
"Adventure Thru Inner Space" (as well as "Great Moments with Mr Lincoln") were FREE attractions - they didn't require a ticket. Which made it very popular. That, and the fact that there was rarely if ever a line! Those ride vehicles, also used on the Haunted Mansion, were great.
Adventure Thru Inner Space lasted from 1967 - 1985. Thanks for posting this.

Growing up in the 60’s and 70’s in a broken home with a dead-beat dad I never had the chance to go to Disneyland. Mom couldn’t afford it. These videos bring back the memories I should have had. 😢

I loved this ride as a kid. I was too young to understand it, but it was air conditioned, you got to sit down for awhile, no ticket required and the "things" inside were cool to look at. Loved the eye.

I love this! It brings me fond memories of my grandmother. She loved this ride, and would love telling us that we were shrinking. Disneyland was a beautiful and wonderful place. Oh, to have one day to spend with my grandmother one more time it would be at Disneyland in 1969.

This ride was the thing that sparked a lifelong love for science in me. I hold this memory dear to my heart.

This was my favourite Disneyland attraction when I was a kid. I was already a big SciFi fan anyway, one of my favourite movies at the time was _"Fantastic Voyage, "_ and so going on this ride was for me almost the next-best thing to re-enacting the movie.

The eye looking at you at the end always freaked me out.

I remember this ride. I tripped out on the miniaturization window that showed guests in tiny size. I tripped out at a kid, actually thinking people were shrunk in size. Later I realized it was an optical illusion.

Later that ride became Star Tours. I remember when they shut it down and put Star Tours under construction in the 80's.

I LOVED that ride! So calm and good place to rest after walking in the heat.

I loved that ride as a kid. I actually thought we did shrink.

First rode this at 9 years old in 1969. It was always one of my favorites and I was sad when I went back one time and it was gone...😥

This was my favorite ride as a child, the eye looking at us through the microscope convinced me we'd shrunk! Never have been on a ride that I loved more.

[ProfessorTime]

My family came here in 1969 when I was only 8 years old.
This was my favorite ride. I actually thought the ride shrunk us for real ! ! !

[aceroro]

lmao those little kids are like parents now, and then teens are grandparents😂😂

This was a great ride for the times! It was also a ride that did not require a ticket along with America the Beautiful and General Electric's Carousel of Progress. Great memories. Thanks for posting this!
