Rumor has it that there were guests on board. I havent been able to confirm this but i have a great source on it.

Im also told that there were no injuries, and that it occured at a place on the track where the boats are added or taken off and it derailed. THats what i was told anyhow....

wow...if something like that happened how would Disney treat the incident..would they give guest free nights at the resorts..give them free tickets...I would imagine guest would be real upset if they were on the boat and it started sinking...

One of the things I hate about JC are the boats..very umcomfortable...maybe its time to replace them? Or better yet..maybe its time to replace the ride and move JC to AK....

just a quick question, how old are the boats used in theride? I am sure it has no bearing on it, I was just wondering. my dad and I had a discussion about this last time we were there

Sounds like they really got to see the 'other side of water'.

Its a JOKE. ( that report, not today's report. I haven't heard anything about it.)

Yuck! Jungle Water! I ended up in the water once during my days as a Skipper...silly little misshap trying to avoid the waterfall, i was trying to be funny (my first mistake) jumped on the side of the boat as if pulling it away from the water..mike cord caught on something, i slipped....and fell right off of my boat and into the murky water....that was an experience!

Ended up getting shots and coming back to work the night shift....man I miss the Jungle.

Ewwwww. I can't imagine the water being that bad. Hmmmm.......on second thought, yes I can.

 

[MadameCheshire]

Wow. That would be terrible to just be going on a family trip, and all of a sudden your boat sinks.

I wonder if they check the water on a normal basis to make sure really gators don't just happen to walk in there and make it their home.

Tetnus shots.. enh.. :lookaroun
