DisneylandVideo Shows Boy's Terrifying Plunge On Waterfall Ride
3:35 PM PT — A Disney official told TMZ in response to the video … the safety of park guests is their highest priority … and attractions are designed with multiple safety measures, and teams are trained to respond quickly in situations like this, which they did — the ride was immediately stopped.
We’re told as is customary in situations like these, officials with the California Division of Occupational Safety and Health, better known as Cal/OSHA, inspected the attraction yesterday and approved it to open.
Terrifying new video shows the moment a 13-year-old boy at Disneyland tumbled down a 50-foot waterfall after getting off a moving ride.
The footage, captured Sunday by another theme park guest, shows the 13-year-old climbing out of the Tiana’s Bayou Adventure log ride right before the famous drop … then falling down the water-covered track.
Fair warning — if you’ve ever been on Tiana’s Bayou Adventure, or any similar log ride, you might want to look away.
As TMZ first reported, the teen was taken to a hospital for evaluation after the incident. Remarkably, he wasn’t reported to have suffered any serious injuries and was later released, which is even crazier now that we’ve obtained the video.
A lucky escape, no doubt … and a pretty clear reminder to keep your butt in the log!
