Kali River Rapids was inspired by the Imagineers’ trip down the Chakranadi River in India (1:02). The ride’s story focuses on the dangers of deforestation and its destructive effects (0:30). If you listen closely while in the queue, you can hear the sounds of loggers cutting down trees and a warning against illegal logging (0:34). Look for the signatures of the Disney Imagineers that worked on this ride in the Expeditions Room while you wait to board your raft (0:52). Each raft has its own name, such as the Himalayan Hummer or the Sherpa Surfer (0:59). Kali River Rapids uses approximately 150,000 gallons of water, ensuring that you will get soaked (1:08).
