Disneyland’s fire-breathing animatronic dragon burst into flames during the popular “Fantasmic” showANAHEIM, Calif. -- Spectators at Disneyland's popular “Fantasmic” show got a shock this weekend when the feature's fire-breathing animatronic dragon suddenly burst into flames. Ryan Laux, a frequent Disneyland visitor, said fire has always been a part of the “Fantasmic" presentation. “The head started going on fire instead of the fire projecting out,” said Laux, who lives in Los Angeles and captured the blaze on video. The show was stopped almost immediately “and then right after that, the dragon started catching fire and the whole body was up in flames,” he said Sunday. Laux said Mickey vanished from the stage as soon as the dragon's head became engulfed in flames.
