Tuesday Trivia - Mattherhorn

Disneyland's Matterhorn, the first of many Disney mountains, is exactly one-one hundredth the size of the real mountain in Switzerland;  147 ft tall vs. 14,700 ft. It is the equivalent of a 14 story building and was in its' day, the most expensive single attraction addition to the park, costing a then-whopping $1.5 million to build.  (Translated to 2012, that would equally roughly $44 million - relatively small compared to many of the $100million attractions that have been built in the past decade at Disney Parks around the world).
