Splash Mountain

I love how this sign warns that you may get wet. I have never been on this ride when I havent gotten wet! It should read you WILL get wet.
Splash Mountain opened in 1989 as is based on the 1947 movie Song of the South. There are a total of 4 drops on the ride. Each one of them can get you wet.
Near the end of the ride is a 52 ft drop at a 45 degree angle going 40 mph. At the top of the drop a camera takes your picture. At the bottom of the drop you splash into a big pool of water.
It's always fun to sit at the exit and see everyone exiting with huge water spots all over them.
