There have been a few times where I have had ideas for Disney attractions and Disney reportedly developed the same concept or actually built the attraction.
For example, I had the idea for a ride that simulated actual space flight in high school, and I think they built m:s about 6 years later. Of course, my concept was not nearly as complicated or sophisticated as what disney designed. Also, at the time I didn't realize that previous concepts of the same idea were developed by Disney, but this still counts.
Also, I thought of the 7 dwarves mine ride before it was popular, but I bet many of us had that thought before.
So, is there anyone else?
