Coolest Ever Grade-School Teacher Photoshops Himself Into Classic Disney Film Scenes

This is a Disney adult if ever we saw one!

Samuel is not your average grade-school teacher. By day, he works with primary school students, and by night, he turns classic Disney scenes into playful Photoshop mashups that feel equal parts nostalgic and wildly inventive. The result is a collection of images that puts him right inside some of the most recognizable movie moments ever made.

He also leans fully into his love of Disney, which makes the whole project feel even more charming. From funny character swaps to unexpected cameos, these edits are the kind of thing that can make you look twice and then grin. We picked 30 of the best ones below.
