While each theme park in Walt Disney World has a lot to offer, none are as unique or as expansive as EPCOT. Sure, Magic Kingdom is full of classic attractions, Disney’s Hollywood Studios has a ton of thrill rides, and Animal Kingdom has some of the coolest lands and scenery. However, EPCOT is by far one of the most creative and special theme parks Disney has ever created, with it featuring multiple different lands for guests to explore as well as World Showcase, an entire section dedicated to other countries.
EPCOT’s newest attraction is Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind, a thrilling roller coaster that features Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy. This ride became the first-ever roller coaster to open at EPCOT and is arguably the best one in Walt Disney World.
However, there’s one very special attraction at EPCOT that may fly under the radar for many guests. EPCOT is also home to The Seas WIth Nemo & Friends. This area is one-part ride, one-part aquarium, and all-parts fun. The actual aquarium itself is comprised of 5.7 million US gallons of tank volume, making the pavilion the second-largest aquarium in the U.S. and the sixth-largest aquarium in the world.
Here, guests will find all sorts of fun and educational activities to enjoy, but the coolest one doesn’t actually involve any real animals.

Turtle Talk With Crush is a popular attraction for all ages at Walt Disney World Resort. Although the engaging experience is primarily aimed at families with younger children, teens and adults also enjoy attending the Finding Nemo-themed event, which takes place at various times daily at Walt Disney World Resort’s The Seas With Nemo and Friends at EPCOT Park and Disneyland Resort’s Disney California Adventure Park. This attraction is very interactive, allowing guests to talk with Crush thanks to some clever technology.
Recently, a tough moment happened, being shared online and going viral on places like TikTok and X (Twitter). You can check out the video down below.

A popular segment of this attraction sees Crush answer questions given to him, most of which are asked by young children. Due to the fact that this show allows Guests to talk to Crush in real-time, there’s always a chance for things to go wrong. In the past, we’ve seen kids ask Crush some truly traumatizing questions. Thankfully, the Disney Cast Members who work at this attraction are extremely talented and are able to navigate these tough moments.
A young child tells Crush that his parents don’t go on enough dates and that this is an issue because he wants more siblings. The child asks for advice as the audience laughs hysterically, and Crush remains silent for quite some time.
Crush laughs and asks to see the “dad” raise his hand. When he does, Crush simply tells him to take his wife on more dates and continues laughing.
Disney Cast Members are known for their excellent service and attention to detail, with Turtle Talk with Crush being one of the best examples of how creative and delicate they can be toward guests. This is far from the first time we’ve seen an awkward question get asked about this attraction, and we’re consistently amazed at how well Crush handles them.
