Some never-seen-before footage showing Walt Disney World in construction has been posted on Youtube, and it's a 1971 U.K TV show called Whicker's World. It shows Alan Whicker, a TV journalist from the U.K. with a delicious and funny British accent who goes around the world to encounter "Tribes Lost and Found"!
In this 1971 TV documentary apparently filmed just a few months before WDW opening, Whicker could walk inside the Magic Kingdom still under construction - as well as the Contemporary Resort nearby - and interview strange "tribes" like Disney's Cast Members who looks a little cultish, and ask another "tribe" nearby - the locals of Kissimmee - about their hopes and fears with the opening of WDW, and their responses are ...refreshing.
It's also a unique footage about the cast-members rules at that time and what locals were thinking, and this video of WDW construction shot before the park was complete worth the view, so don't miss it!
