How tall is the ToT and why is it such a height? (It's somewhat of an odd number)

199 Feet...Because if it was more than 200 Feet, it needs a flashing light for airplanes and it would ruin the Twilight Zone's image.

Same reason the castle is the height it is, Walt wanted it taller, but state regulations said it needed a flashing light. So they built it with forced perspective instead.
They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.

How about this?

Does Anandapur actually translate into english, and if so what does it mean?
Mr. Starkey: No splash, Captain.
Captain Hook: So, you want a splash, Mr Starkey? I'll give you a splash!

As far as I know, it does not translate into English, but it is the real name of a town in Bangladesh, India.

(I am going to post a question, but feel free to ignore it if my question was wrong)


Who did the orignal voice of Figment in the first "Journey Into Imagination" ride?

And for a bonus- who did the second voice in the later rides and for what semi Disney-related voice is he known for?

for the first question, Anandapur translates to "Delight". The area is inspired by Nepalese temples, though there is no Anandapur in Nepal. There are actually 2 Anandapurs - in the Kendujhar district in the state of Orissa, India, or the Chandpur District in the Chittagong Division of eastern Bangladesh.


as for the second question - well, the current voice is Dave Goelz, who does a few voices for the Muppets. the original voice was the guy who was in the He-Man movie, as well as UHF (one of my favorite movies) - Billy Barty.

For my question, Anandapur translates into "Pleasure Place", I have a friend who is a physician from Nepal, and I've showed him pictures and asked the question does the word mean anything in Nepalese? It may mean something else in Hindi, or one of the other languages used in the region. So Delight could be quite correct as well.

By the way, he was quite impressed, and said that that area does look very nepalese. (even though Disney advertises that it is a conglomeration of Nepal, India, Thailand etc.) A direct quote "It looks just like back home."

ok, I refuse to let this topic die.

In Pirates of the Caribbean, how many AA figures are there, and how many of each classification are there (people/animals)?

I would've thought that was a little harder, but I guess not. You're up, Len90
