A funny publicity campaign started last week in UK:

DLRPToday wrote:The publicity campaign for The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror took a surprising step today when a crashed lift cabin mysteriously appeared in Londonâ€™s world-famous Leicester Square â€” complete with bellhops!

That is Awesome. I wish I was living there so I could see that, or at least vacationing there. I would love to see some video of peoples reactions, time for a you tube search.

That video was fantastic!!! Thanks for sharing Gforce!

I wonder if the ToT is much different in Paris than in Orlando?! Does anyone know?! That's my most favorite ride!!! Last Oct. I ran the ToT 13K with my dad and cousin, it was outstanding, I'd recommend that to any runners out there! Or you can walk the shorter distance. The medal were super cool, the ToT and the little elevator slides up and down and the lanyards glow in the dark!!!

Yes the Paris' ToT is the same that the one in Anahein. There's no corridor scene. When you're in, you have the mirror scene (instead of the corridor in Orlando) and after that it's the ghost's scene, then the drops.

Here is the most beautiful picture I have of the french ToT with its new Boulevard (it's a very nice wallpaper too

click on it to enlarge)

Before this time, there was... Grass.

when the TOT in anaheim opened, were the drops already random ? or did it come afterwards ?

I think it come afterwards, at the time in the Walt Disney Studios, the drops are always the same but the ramdom chutes program will arrive in a few years I think.

yes probably a few years and a new marketing campaign when they will make the drops random....if they do cause it wouldn't be the first time something planned does not happen at dlrp

A bit late here, but that publicity stunt was fantastic! I do wish they would have been a bit more original with the ride itself though, like in Tokyo.

all the advertising campaign for the opening of the tot in paris was pretty weak i thought (the national campaign)
