00:00 The story behind the biggest amusement park in the world.
00:02 Well, it all starts on a Saturday afternoon, with a man getting bored.
00:06 And a man who gets bored can create great things, especially if it's Walt Disney.
00:10 The latter was sitting on a bench watching his two daughters have fun on a carousel,
00:14 while he, too big for that kind of thing, was deprived of any kind of fun.
00:17 That's when he had the idea of creating an amusement park suitable for everyone.
00:21 A family park that would entertain both children and their parents.
00:25 And as he had already created with Disney an easily adaptable universe,
00:29 a few years later, the first Disneyland opened its doors in California.
00:32 But be careful, it's not him, the biggest amusement park in the world.
00:35 Quite the opposite, it is even to this day the smallest Disneyland on the planet.
00:38 However, once the park opened to the public, Walt Disney was not satisfied.
00:42 He wanted to create a second park, but this time a much larger park.
00:45 To do this, he contacted the state of Florida to obtain the necessary authorizations.
00:50 And after that, Disney World Resort, a real magic city, was about to be created.
00:54 But Walt Disney never saw it, because he died 5 years before the end of the work.
00:57 However, today the park is 111 square kilometers, which is bigger than the city of Paris.
01:03 And it employs 55,000 people, distributed over more than 3,000 different jobs.
