What level of thrill is Splash Mountain?

Splash Mountain It's a classic log flume ride (with one heckuva drop). And it's an animatronics-filled dark ride themed to the classic film, Song of the South. You'll be charmed by the Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah post-drop finale—if you can brave the drop. Thrill scale: 5.
