Seems to be like Mom Gothel forgot to warn Rapunzel about one of many more odd perils of daring to go outdoors: Getting eaten by hungry crows!
Latest friends at Tokyo DisneySea theme park have been presumably horrified when crows started to assault the lengthy, golden hair atop the top of the Rapunzel animatronic that sits within the tower window on the in any other case peaceable Rapunzel’s Lantern Pageant trip.
In a viral video of the incident making the rounds on social media, two giant, black crows may be seen pecking at and tearing giant bundles of blonde hair from Rapunzel’s head because the animatronic continues to sway and sing from her tower window. Watch under.
I can solely assume the crows have been taking such beneficiant tufts of valuable Disney Princess hair to construct their nest with, which is form of candy when you can ignore the in any other case gory scene involving Rapunzel basically getting scalped by birds. I’m not even positive the Brothers Grimm might provide you with such twisted stuff. (Simply kidding—I do know what actually occurs to the Ugly Stepsisters in Grimm’s 1812 model of the Cinderella fairytale, and people birds are means worse.)
The animatronic is a part of Rapunzel’s Lantern Pageant, a Tangled-inspired trip situated within the Fantasy Springs land at Tokyo DisneySea. The romantic boat trip, which opened in June 2024, celebrates the love story between Rapunzel and Flynn Ryder, and takes friends by way of the story of Tangled.

Although a lot much less violent in spectacle, Frozen’s Olaf fairly just lately died in entrance of a crowd.
The spectacular new strolling, speaking audio-animatronic was greeting friends at Disneyland Paris when it abruptly stopped functioning, seemingly powered down, and fell straight again onto the bottom as if it had immediately developed rigor mortis. His little carrot nostril even popped off, too. And, in fact, all of it went very viral.
