The different track layout, and the lack of the mountain mean very different ride experience to him (if I recall past posts of his correctly), not just "Matterhorn in a building".

Space Mountain at Magic Kingdom in Florida serves the same attraction purpose as Matterhorn at DL, but isn't the same ride (in a box).

Anyone else remember the first few days of fine rides, such as Splash Mountain? I particularly remember SM (because I was out in CA that summer) and how many times it shut down in the first week, even first month!

I think the attraction with the worst start-up record is Indy (well, maybe Rocket Rodd's too, but I am trying to put that hack-job out of mind).

Here's another pic from that trip - trying to stand on Space Mountain, proving decapitation is impossible:

Doesn't trying to stand up on a coaster get you an honorable mention at the Darwin Awards?
