Riding with McCown on his 1000th ride is park guest Steven Nichols (left), age 12, from London, England. McCown, who calls himself "Yeti Man" and wears furry gloves and a ski hat, has now ridden the Himalayan-themed attraction more than 1000 times, with 63 times in one day being his personal record. Nichols was visiting with his family from England and was asked to join McCown on his historic ride. Expedition Everest officially opened at Walt Disney World on April 7, 2006.
