Abraham Lincoln Malfunctions at Hall of Presidents
Honest Abe just wasn’t feeling the show yesterday. During his part in the Hall of Presidents show, he was slumped over with his audio still going. It appears as when he went to stand up, he fell forward and stayed that way for the length of his speech. Take a look at the TikTok video below.

We spoke to a Cast Member at the show today and they told us that the animatronic lost hydraulic pressure which kept him from standing up all the way.
Despite the malfunction yesterday, all is right with the 16th President today.
The Hall of Presidents officially reopened on August 3rd with the new President, Joe Biden, front and center. The President recited the presidential oath of office that was recorded at the White House by President Biden himself just for the attraction.

President Biden also has some familiar props with him on stage. The table next to him features peach blossoms, representing his home state of Delaware, and his signature pair of aviator style sunglasses.
