Fact #3453
Walt Disney's plane is backstage at Hollywood Studios. When the Backlot Tour still existed at Disney Hollywood Studios, the tram went past this plane, and guests learned that this plane was actually used by Walt when he was scouting the Central Florida area for his second park, as well as for many other trips. As a cast member, you could drive and walk by it at any time, because it is just there on display backstage.
Fact #3454
Animal Kingdom is built in a bowl. During orientation, we were told that the park is sunken into the ground to create a climate suitable for all the animals in the park. This is also why the temperature inside the park is much warmer than outside.
Fact #3455

Fact #3456

Fact #3458
If a child gets separated from his/her parents, cast members will always treat the situation as a lost adult, never a lost child.
Fact #3459
Cast members cannot acknowledge a celebrity as such. Celebrities are the same as every other park guest if you're on stage. Asking a celebrity for a photo or autograph is grounds for immediate release from your job.
Fact #3460
Hollywood Studios has provided bikes backstage for cast. There's a Mickey Mouse on top of Crossroads of the World right inside the entrance to Hollywood Studios that waves to all who enter and exit, but that Mickey also serves another purpose. He's a lightning rod. One of his ears is made of copper to attract the lightning. The building is also a replica of the Crossroads of the World in Hollywood.
Fact #3461
Cast members have access to discontinued merchandise, damaged merchandise, and items left in lost and found. There's a store behind Magic Kingdom that sells items pulled from the park shelves at discounted prices for cast members. Then there's a trailer next door that sells damaged merchandise and lost-and-found items.
Fact #3462 (Disney Employee Story)
Playing as Mulan, Chinese people would always tell me to speak Chinese & I'd tell them that I bet Mushu if I could go an entire day without speaking Chinese he'd feed the chickens for me tomorrow.
Fact #3463
Disney also has their own force of Emergency services called Reedy Creek and they know all the back roads and such and can be in any park in about 2 minutes flat.

Calum from Austin & Alley while rehearsing, he doesn't read the entire script - he only reads the scenes that he's in.

Fact #3470
Jim Henson reportedly created over 2000 Muppets in his lifetime.
Fact #3471
In Inside Out, A113 pops up in graffiti at the bus stop, just as Riley is getting ready to run away from home.
Fact #3472
Bill Hader got his role as Fear by crashing the studio. He showed up claiming to be a huge fan, and requested a tour, using it to meet Docter and producer Jonas Rivera. They cast him, then immediately asked if he could use his working history with Amy Poehler on Saturday Night Live to get her into the project.
Fact #3473
The multiple meanings of the title "Inside Out" don't work in many languages besides English, so foreign territories have had to retitle the film from scratch, and the results sound kind of odd to English ears.
Fact #3474
The movie was also known in the Pixar offices as "Cake," which was only a working title that didn't seem to have anything to do with any plot, while publicly it was dubbed "The Untitled Pixar Movie That Takes You Inside the Mind".
Fact #3475
In yet an earlier draft, Gloom was a malevolent force that threatened to consume all other emotions, or at least render them powerless over Riley. Although this idea is faintly echoed on the bus as the emotions can no longer make Riley feel anything, Docter veered away from it when he realised it could be presenting clinical depression as, ultimately, just something to walk off.
Fact #3476
Originally, Joy wasn't meant to be the leader of the group. That role went first to Logic, keeping the other emotions on a leash, and then to a miniature Riley, transported to her own emotional landscape like Dorothy into Oz. Joy was also called "Optimism" in early drafts until Docter learned Optimism wasn't generally considered an emotion.
Fact #3477
Early drafts featured many more imaginary friends than just Bing Bong, like Mrs. Scribbles, a stick-figure drawn in crayon on the wall, and Corner Sun, a quarter-sun like one a child might draw (in crayon, again) at the corner of a piece of paper.
Fact #3478
