Welcome to Timekeeping. Over a year ago, WDWNT set out to document the year-by-year history of the Walt Disney World Resort. From the opening of a new land, to the minutiae of a store changing names. 50 episodes later, we have consolidated the highlights of these videos into two parts. This is part 1, which focuses on the complete history of Walt Disney World from the 1960s-1996 (the 25th anniversary).

What was your favorite moment from the first 25 years?
When I first saw this video, I was like “Wait didn’t Timekeeping for WDW end with 2021?” Then I looked at the title, and the thumbnail more closely, and I was like “Oh, from the 1960s to 1996.”
no Operation paperclip ,Tavistock, mk ultra monarch butterfly or 33° mason clubs. Never was about fun and entertainment. Get your 🍿ready.
I love this series, thanks for doing it❤️
Disney’s happy days.
Very nice !
-Well done !!! 👍🏼 🔱🎭🌴
A salute to all theme parks but mostly Walt Disney World, it's a glorious four-hour finale (part 1) …seriously though, this is great, so many nice memories in here
CAUTION: This video is highly addictive.
Great job as always Tom. I’m old enough to remember the opening year and have been hooked ever since. Brought back many great memories.
This is great content! ❣️ºoº❣️ Congratulations Tom!
Love it !
I like that in the early years, Woke Pedo World and company wasn’t such a woke left wing nut organization filled with angry hateful intolerant democrats pushing their leftist ideology back when the company and parks were great and there was diversity of thought in the company. Not just angry hateful intolerant democrats who hate anyone that’s not nuts like they are.
I’d love to see one of these for Disneyland.
Thank you for your hard work and thorough overview down memory lane.
So fun to binge on this and so much information! Thanks everyone!
I'm such a hypocrite. I won't go to the theater for any movie over 2 hours long, but I'll sit here and watch 4.5 hours of WDW history knowing that this is only PART ONE with 4.5 more hours of content to go.
Great video! Thank you so much for posting.
As a trucker that spends 14 hours a day driving and listening to your videos thank you so much for these long format videos.
Truly your chef d’oeuvre. Well done 🥂
Thanks for these wonderful videos! Love the breakdown by year.
It's almost sad this video only has 10 thousand views. My god how long did this take to make??? This is incredible work and research.
Wtf is up with Disney company today ?!
Longest Youtube video I've ever watched front to back, this is an incredible undertaking. What's the total time spent on this project (if you can even estimate)? It's probably the most comprehensive source of WDW info I've ever seen consolidated into a single video. Is there anything else that approaches this depth out there?
