I just heard that someone died after riding my most favorite roller coaster at Disney World! It kind of throws you for a loop to hear that someone died on a ride on a ride you’ve enjoyed with your husband and your kids. Heck, my girls have gone on it alone - it’s not wild at all. There are no huge drops, riders don’t go upside down, and the whole thing is very smooth. I think an autopsy will show that the deceased had to have some kind of medical issue that led to his untimely death, and that Disney isn’t at fault here.

Everytime I hear a “death at Disney” story I get the creepy crawly shivers down my back. There was the little boy that died after riding Mission: Space before we went, so sad and scary at the same time. One moment you’re doing something fun with your family … then the next moment the world is upside down and wrong from every angle.
