A TikTok posted Tuesday, Aug. 25, appears to show a caveman animatronic inside EPCOT’s Spaceship Earth with its head in an abnormal sideways position.
The 14-second video is labeled Spaceship Earth at Lake Buena Vista. It does not establish when the scene began, how long it lasted or what caused the figure’s position.
