To know that Walt felt like a big kid at his own theme park and seeing that smile just warm my heart and that fact that Disney was created by all the adults who still had that child like heart in them when it came to cartoons and movies and tv shows
I know of no other man who brought more entertainment to the entire world, than Walt DIsney. I'd bet no other name is more popular than his name, Walt Disney. He is a father of legends.
As I read the comments below, I realize to an even greater extent what a special person he was. As a "Baby Boomer," I experienced his genius in many ways, and as I grew older and entered the film Industry, myself, my respect for the "Disney Magic" never stopped growing. Today, my company stationary carries the line "Practitioners in the Magic of Imagination." Those words are my personal tribute to Walter Elias Disney. May the magic he created defeat the greed and hate so prevalent in our world today. We still need you, Walt, maybe more than ever..

Agreed, love what you wrote HP. I too worked in the film industry and still teach filmmaking, the respect never stops. I always finf something new and magical in Disney.
He was much loved for what he gave the world.
Can you imagine how much happiness this one man created? through making this incredible successful company that bought actual dreams and fairy tales to life?. These we're the type of men that truly loved children they loved their family, loved life. Such people we rarely see nowadays. Truly a special person who has become immortalized in time.
We need another Walt in the world.

Thank you Walt Disney for 100 years of the magic and the memories.
I sometimes wonder if our country has any idea how big an impact Walt Disney on Americana. He really laid the foundation for many things we consider the core of our culture.
11 years to accomplish this. Just stellar. Imagine if Walt was still with us
Thank you for posting this. My eyes teared up when I saw Walt’s last picture at Disneyland 🥺 I was a 4 years old living in Puerto Rico when he passed away. I would’ve LOVED to have seen him in person. I do have my own “Disney” story though. When I was 12 years old, I came to live with my sister in Los Angeles. Fast forward to the mid 90’s. My sister and I were at a restaurant called El Cholo on Western Avenue. Back then, depending on the time that you went, you gave your name for a table and waited at the bar area seated in these comfy couches. Sometimes the wait was almost an hour. So, we’re sitting there waiting and listening for our name to be called. Suddenly we heard “Disney, party of 4, Disney party of 4.” All of our eyes got HUGE! The place got pretty quiet as we watched Roy Disney Jr, Walt’s nephew, walking through the area with the rest of his party on their way to their table. I recognized him immediately! I remember thinking that he looked so much like his uncle Walt. That is the closest to seeing “royalty” that I’ve ever come to. That memory is etched in my mind. ❤️
There will never be another Walt Disney

Walt Disney, American Genius !!
For Walt to draw his dreams on paper in real life then transfer it from paper to screen and from screen to a world famous attraction not gonna lie I'm truly feeling inspired inspired from Walt's Disney hard work and dedication blood sweat and tears
That was wonderful, thank you! I always cry when I hear him say, " To all who come to this happy place, welcome! " ! 😂
Uncle Walt was truly a genius, the likes of which we will never see again. I can't imagine a world without his magic and the hope he left this humble planet. Thank you for everything, Uncle Walt. This world would have been lost without you.🙂

I can only say Walt thank you for what you have given us as a Mouse named Mickey to begin with, to Snow White, and more Amazing Masterpieces thank you for your Disneyland Theme Park, I'm sorry Walt that your Legacy is Vanishing hopefully someone will bring it back in your Honor and Tradition, RIP

And now Bob Iger is back baby for 2yrs to fix up what Chapek has done. Sure the Michael Eisner brought the magic back through the 90s and saved the company. Bob Iger brought back Oswald the Lucky Rabbit back to Disney after 80yrs on his first year as CEO. Walt would be proud of Eisner and Iger for their work. Sure you can questions some their choices, but they saved Disney and protected Walt's dreams.
This man is more than a hero
Walt was such a gentle soul
I have a memory of Dick Van Dyke appearing on the Disney show the Sunday after his death. I think he, in as gentle a manner as possible explained that Walt had passed away. Does anyone else remember that?

Smoking was certainly a factor in Walt's death, since he had lung cancer. But I also think that stress was a part of it, too, since he was a workaholic and had many projects going on at the same time

Probably be proud his idea still lives on and has made every generation happy since. He was believer in nothing is ever complete and everything is meant to change with the times. So while not understanding why, no interfering though.
I spent the summer weekends of 1967 and 1968 at Disneyland. Admission was $2.50 and $3.00 respectively. Of course most Californians already had coupon books stuck away in a desk at home, available for the next family trip to DL so using those was an inexpensive way to go on rides. But my main goal was to enjoy the entertainment - particularly the bands and comedians. Early Disneyland always valued great entertainers, unlike today.
It wasn’t long after Walt’s passing that CBS did their purge of family shows, like Andy Griffith show (68) and Beverly hill billies (71), Green Acres (71), and so on.
Beautifully told. Thank you for sharing.
One of my favourite ppl, and definitely my favourite place! This was great to watch. It was very heartfelt.
when he said "The Happiest Millionaire won't be release till late next year" its really sad he won't able the release of the film and The Jungle Book

Goodbye Walt Disney (R.I.P. Walt Disney)
Unfortunately, he never lived to see Disney World open up in Florida back in 1971.
I remember the day he died it was on the announcements and we went home from school early that day. My bus driver was crying too.
Walt was a heavy smoker throughout his life. Chesterfield was his brand and he would smoke 3 packs of cigarettes per day.

In the 1960s you would have been thought of as weird if you didn't smoke. Three packs a day of non-filtered cigs might have been on the high side of consumption, though.

I Love Disney Since I was a Child
Here in 2024 and I would like you all to know! We might not have the Founder himself upon us this day, but he will live in our hearts forever and will never be forgotten to time. "Now is the time now is the best time" To live and to forgive. and "there's a great big beautiful just a dream away"
Wow, just loved this Documentary! Great writing/story, editing and sound! Loved the narration and content. I love this but It makes me so sad to know Walt is gone. I never realized he died at 65! Wow he seemed so young. I mean I am 64, and I still feel like a young man (most of the time) lol. I'm not really sure if we will see another Walt Disney in our lifetime? I mean it seemed like through his hard work and imagination it all lined up for him, hard fought I know, but it still it "mostly" worked in a positive outcome. How would someone do something like this again? Animation, live action, theme parks and more, not sure if we will ever see it as it was done like Walt and his crew did it.

If Walt knew what was being done to the company that was his life's work, it would kill him a second time.

Walt Disney also ruined careers by naming names to the house of unamerican activities because Jr hated unions . Before we got into the war he was trying to make deals with Nazi Germany when other studio's were pulling out.
65 years old was an average age to die back in 1966. Walt Disney didn't die young, he was an old man according to 1966 standards.
Walt Disney would be very sad if he saw how the company has taken over everything because he only wanted to make the world a happy place
