    Not going to happen. Florida is going to think they’re winning while the state sinks into the ocean, Disney moves all its business, their schools lay empty, and their hospitals are over filling. Keep on winning guys

      Just imagine all the Disney buildings just lift off from the ground and slowly hover their way along, Terran building style.

        I personally believe Bob Iger himself will activate a mickey shaped bat signal. Upon seeing it all the animatronics will lift up Disney world from its foundations, carrying Bob into the sunset on his merchandise riddled palanquin.

          Orlando is about 50 miles inland and 100 feet above sea level, I am pretty sure the rides could slide down into the sea and sail off at less cost since you wouldn’t need to fight gravity.

        Disney Imagineers hiring PHDs in gravitational physics, with the research facilities actually disguised as said Guardians of the Galaxy Ride.

      since Disney build their parks on a literal man made hill, they will take the time to declare independence

      Everybody Wants To Rule The World is the best song. Absolutely the closest I’ve ever gotten to drifting peacefully in the starry night sky. I wanted to cry when it was over. The ride operates on a 1-reservation a day system because it’s THAT good. I’m so sad I can’t ride it forever…

      We got Blondie’s One Way or Another for our chase through the cosmos. 10/10 would recommend, and that was the best coaster I’ve ever been on, lol

        We got Disco Inferno for our first and didn’t know we’d get a different song the 2nd time.

        Everyone was scream singing One Way or Another the whole ride. Amazing!

    Mark my words, Disney won’t let all of Florida sink. Eventually it’ll just be the island state of Orlando with a big ass Disney © brand Flood Wall surrounding the parks.

      Disney parks aren’t even at ground level, they literally sit atop a massive hill as the entire infrastructure of the park is hidden on the first story

      They turned the Tower of Terror into a guardians of the galaxy ride in California. I was in Disney world during summer and Tower of Terror was still old school Twilight zone.

      You’re right, but isn’t California the one that’s technically slowly breaking away from the US due to tectonic plates? If Florida is also, that’s even better lol

        Progressives are pushing the ‘land back’ thing these days, California will have to go back to Mexico based on the rallys I’m watching on the news. Wonder if we’ll need visas to visit.

    The state of Georgia has been waiting for this moment forever, I don’t live in my home state anymore but I’ll be so happy to see that rotten appendage become nothing more than a glorified atoll

      Global warming. Bye bye much of coastal America because you can’t stop the tide no matter how much they try.

          I will dispute the 5 years part but in 50? Goodbye New York as well btw. If engineers aren’t solving these problems now they’re fucked but even the best engineer isn’t going to save the cities. Nature trumps all and oceans rising coupled with hurricanes moving further north.

          It’s gonna be wild! Get your popcorn for sure.

            dude current projections out Miami basically a whole story underwater in 25 years, and these may even be too conservative as we have recently learned and they need to be reajusted
