00:47 Welcome to the Grand Canyon,
00:49 nature's masterpiece and wonder of the world.
00:52 [clears throat]
00:53 Spread out, little folks.
00:55 This is CinemaScope.
00:56 [swoosh]
00:57 [laughs] That's better.
00:58 Now, Mother Nature started carving this canyon
01:01 millions of years ago.
01:03 It's over 200 miles long
01:05 and 4 to 18 miles wide.
01:07 A-bashin'.
01:08 And mind you, at this point,
01:10 it's a mile deep.
01:12 A-mile deep.
01:14 [swoosh]
01:15 Ah, ah, ah, ah.
01:16 No throwing of rocks into the canyon.
01:18 If we all threw rocks into the canyon,
01:20 pretty soon we wouldn't have a canyon, would we?
01:23 Now, as I was saying,
01:25 when you look at the canyon from this point...
01:27 Well, well.
01:29 A sad panda.
01:31 [swoosh]
01:32 Oh, boy.
01:34 [swoosh]
01:35 Ah.
01:36 Please, don't bother the Americans.
01:40 [muttering]
01:43 [music]
01:45 [swoosh]
01:46 Very, very interesting.
01:49 [music]
02:00 You again.
02:02 Tourist.
02:03 Trouble, trouble, trouble.
02:05 [music]
02:11 [sneezing]
02:13 [sneezing]
02:16 [muttering]
02:21 [muttering]
02:24 [screaming]
02:26 No yelling, please.
02:28 [whistle]
02:29 Now, as we hit the trail to the floor of the canyon,
02:31 there is nothing to fear.
02:33 Keep your arms in, no staring in the saddle.
02:35 Face the front, no talking to the burrows.
02:37 Trail home.
02:39 [music]
02:42 Beautiful shot.
02:43 [music]
02:54 A magnificent view.
02:56 [music]
03:01 This is halfway point.
03:02 Now, if you look up there, you'll find the limestone is different from the canyon.
03:05 Mr. Merchant.
03:06 Hmm?
03:07 Will you take my picture?
03:09 Why, certainly.
03:10 Hold it.
03:11 [music]
03:13 Trail home.
03:15 Okay, boy.
03:16 Let's go.
03:17 [music]
03:28 Oh, boy.
03:29 What a shot.
03:30 [music]
03:39 Wow.
03:40 [muttering]
03:43 [music]
03:46 On this hand, you have the Tonto Plateau.
03:49 And on the other hand, you have--
03:50 [thud]
03:51 Oh, my goodness.
03:54 It's you again.
03:55 And just where is your burrow?
03:58 It's up there.
03:59 Well, you must have a burrow.
04:01 Against the rules, you know.
04:03 Just a minute, folks.
04:04 I'll be right back.
04:06 [muttering]
04:09 Now, now, let me handle this.
04:12 [music]
04:16 All right.
04:17 Come on, now.
04:18 Straighten up there.
04:19 Most done becoming a burrow.
04:20 Forgetting to look a little shaggy like an old lion.
04:24 A lion?
04:26 It's impossible.
04:27 The last lion seen in the canyon was during the Civil War.
04:30 So that couldn't be you.
04:32 Or could it?
04:33 [music]
04:44 It's a lion.
04:45 Fire.
04:46 [music]
04:57 Speed limit on the trail.
04:58 Rigidly enforced.
05:00 [music]
05:03 I'll be delayed a little longer, folks.
05:06 [music]
05:12 [whistle]
05:13 Put those rocks back.
05:15 [music]
05:24 I did it.
05:26 [whistle]
05:28 [music]
05:35 I should have stayed in the Postal Service.
05:38 [music]
05:46 Don't wait any longer, folks.
05:47 Run for your lives.
05:49 [music]
06:08 Well, I hope you're satisfied.
06:12 You, too, have in a matter of minutes messed up what it took Mother Nature millions of years to create.
06:18 The National Park Rule Book states, and I quote,
06:21 "When a natural object is marred or defaced, it must be restored to its original state."
06:26 So, start digging.
