Broken down in Space Mountain! Always wondered what it looked like inside!

I never raise my arms in this ride for the fear of losing them to a low cross beam. - Hagrid  26.4 #4553 7:09AM
Same here! I tend to want to duck down whenever I see a crossbeam overhead! - tinkmagic  204.4 #1565 7:15AM
Haha that's my fear too. I never raise my hands on this ride. - JoeyStone  180.7 #1852 7:15AM
I'll put my hands up here, after seeing it with the light on in person I feel "safe" enough. Now WDW Space Mountain? No way no how am I putting my arms up.. lol! - Lola027  444.8 #277 8:58AM
My hands are raised the whole time. - adventurerEnDisneylandia {AED}  263.9 #878 9:00AM
I even put my hands up on TSMM... - bonedaddy909  332.9 #453 9:15AM
@bonedaddy 😂😂😂 - HandMeAChurroImmaFaint  1766.3 #43 9:20AM
If your short like me, you can raise em like you just don't care! 😊 - LilMissPixie84  35.1 #4159 1:45PM
Totally lol! - mrsmluvsit  9.2 #7028 3:12PM
Me too I just keep my hands to myself - Cinderellaaa  18.6 #5192 4:58PM
Well I'm tall so I watch out. Same for The Matterhorn. I've hit the rock archways. - Hagrid  26.4 #4553 5:00PM
I am 5'11+ and I used to crouch down in the seat for the same reason. I saw the scale model in the gallery once and now I sit up and raise my arms. Request the front seat for your first "arms up" ride. You will be glad you did. - GrumpyPirateDad  462.4 #263 7:16PM
Wait, arms up ala the wave or stick-em up up? - Hagrid  26.4 #4553 7:24PM
Yeah, I've touched the underside of the tracks on Goofy's Fight School. - MrsMears  212.0 #1450 7:52PM
I'v been on twice when there was a break down, I'm pretty short so I always put my hands up! - ShariRenee  1505.1 #50 7:54PM
Me too!!! Lol!! - ChadP  5.5 #9679 10:22PM
*covers eyes* still haven't seen this 🙈🙈 - mini_MINNIE  400.5 #331 8:02AM
love it ,someday wouldnt it be fun if they had an ap event where you got to ride it like this - pikarich  578.2 #188 9:11AM
It broke down on us and they had to push our cars down. I'm so scared now to ride it but I do!!! - MrsSchnooks  569.2 #193 3:26PM
I love it! Talk about facing your fears! - meridafan  1032.1 #84 4:47PM
Wow it is not that big lol making it dark seems to make ride bigger - alphathedog4  135.6 #2507 6:58AM
Did u get to walk off then u lucky - alphathedog4  135.6 #2507 6:59AM
Cool picture, thank you for sharing. - MonLuvsDisney  157.5 #2182 7:14AM
Very cool shot! - JoeyStone  180.7 #1852 7:16AM
Heard of all the attractions, this one barely makes earthquake safety...so seeing lights on would be scary to see why that is - MarshaMouse  2834.6 #15 7:44AM
Scary! That's making me think twice about going it now! - nerdgirl  25.8 #4594 7:58AM
That's funny because I was on the line for space mountain one time, about to get on when an earthquake happened! They had to shut down the ride, in fact almost all the rides shut down for a few hours. - lohofosho  266.7 #855 8:24AM
They have to shut down many public places when an earthquake takes place. I remember I was at school during a larger earthquake one summer. They shut the school down and had to inspect every building room by room to make sure it was safe to reenter. Disneyland is the same way and even more so since it involves moving parts. - aidensmama  336.3 #441 8:39AM
I totally get it! I am not from California and have never experienced and Earthquake before so I was just in shock. It was very minor of course, haha at first I just thought it was the ride until they closed it down! - lohofosho  266.7 #855 8:49AM
They let us ride again, which was nice. All the other riders were good sports about it too. - pblack29  28.3 #4455 7:48AM
Wonder what needed to be fixed - E-Ticket  771.6 #127 8:08AM
computer or someone held up the loading rockets - Plumiegirl  3321.9 #10 8:34AM
Love the behind the scenes. - CobbPR  1509.5 #49 8:41AM
Cool! Disney secrets revealed! - Dufus  109.4 #2909 8:49AM
I appreciate this ride more. - adventurerEnDisneylandia {AED}  263.9 #878 9:01AM
Never would have imagined it looked like this - ShannonAzevedo  131.3 #2565 9:16AM
Crazy, isn't it? I rode space at Wdw with the lights on. Track 2 had broken down, but w were on track 1 & rode it with lights on. It wasn't as fun! - HiddenMickeyFanatic  258.6 #919 9:17AM
Not see how I'd feel about going on a ride where half of it is broken down. Eeek! - meridafan  1032.1 #84 9:19AM
Sure, not see! - meridafan  1032.1 #84 9:19AM
They have two separate sides, like matterhorn - HiddenMickeyFanatic  258.6 #919 12:26PM
Ohhhh..soooo cool! My favorite ride! - PrincessLadybug  202.2 #1593 11:43AM
I would love to break down and have the lights come on! - PrincessAuroraMomma  392.6 #339 11:45AM
Whoa, that's awesome!! - GibsonGirl87  281.2 #719 11:46AM
It's cool how they can have so many cars on the track at one time! - rbeezy  653.6 #160 12:03PM
Closest I got to this is when someone couldn't fit in the car and they pulled is in the maintenance bay. Would like to see it light up in pwrson thought - mlatour  278.9 #737 12:13PM
this is on my bucket list. great picture! - MamaRoo  344.5 #421 1:59PM
Aww lucky... I would like if it broke diwn when I go on :-P - theREBELspy  177.0 #1899 1:59PM

Last summer I was on Space Mountain& it broke down. They had to push our cars down too. We also got to ride it again. I still love this ride more than anything!!! Hope to break down again!! - Superspacemountainfan  10.3 #6639 5:36PM
Another awesome pic with the lights on in Space MTN. Love it! - Disneymale5000  5.3 #10037 9:12PM
Try riding it with the lights on. Scary!!! I did it once - HollywoodGlitter  179.2 #1873 9:47PM
Sweeeeeett! - supersparkles  34.3 #4190 10:00PM
My husband has video of almost the entire ride with light on. The employees came through and pushed all the cars down. - dancinpixy  3.0 #32239 10:24PM
Wow! That's so cool. Thanks for sharing :) - NermieMouse  89.4 #3148 10:25PM
