Thanks for posting that link. I watched the little news clip. I just love the girl that had to have her 10 seconds of fame.:lookaroun Anyway, the reporter did mention the other incidents, but she said there were pre-exsisting(sp?) conditions, except for the girl on ToT. I don't know if it's posted anywhere but How is that girl doing?

I hate hearing stories like this. My dad is about that age with really bad arthritis (sometimes trouble walking) so I can see how it would be difficult to board a ride if he has a condition like that or if you're elderly. I hope he recovers. How terrible for the wife and granddaughter to see him get hurt like that.

I was there that day, still have a fast pass for the ride, I thought it was a bit odd they had 4 CM's standing out infront of the ride, telling people they were working on it getting it back up. Also saw a guy inside the ride load area (not dressed in CM's costume) with a ticket book of some sort, almost looked like a rain check book, filling it out and giving it to a guest. Looked to me to be some sort of management individual.
That was late afternoon, probably 3 or 4ish, and the area didn't get closed down till sometime later, I assumed it had something to do with the fireworks.

Thirty-Four, the one in DL does not have a moving conveyor belt. Of course, the HM and ATIS have/had moving belts, but not suspended vehicles.

Overreaction or not, it is typical of how they react to these situations. After the Columbia death at DL, they even sealed out Non-Disney emergency personnell until they had sanitized the scene. It was because of this that California passed new reporting laws and other regulations regarding theme park incidents.
This makes the papers because people are more interested when something happens at the number one tourist destination in the world. It astounds me that I'm pointing out what should be blindingly obvious to anyone interested enough to be reading or writing about it on an internet message board.
Cheers.

I happened to be in the Magic Kingdom when the accident occured. We were on Main Street finding our spot for "Wishes." When a massive influx of people came out of Fantasyland didn't really think anything of it at the time as the crowd was calm. Just thought everyone was trying to get out before the fireworks. Soon after we saw the helicopter take off but still didn't think anything was up.
IT wasn't til later we heard of it on the news. My take from overhearing people talking about the incident was that they shut Fantasyland down and told all the guests that there was a fire.

Personally, I don't believe it's the peoples fault who make the ride but the individual or in this case parent whom allows a preschooler to ride such a ride in the first place. Granted, I'm sure there are many a preschooler that is up for it but I don't think their little mind is capable of understanding what is really going on. Still, it is a very unfortunate accident. It is sad what happened to the gentleman on Peter Pan. How is anyone affiliated with WDW to know if someone is in good health or capable of moving fast enough to enter a ride. Maybe the guy thought there wouldn't be a problem. Again, it was just an unfortunate accident.
Just my two cents!

Thats because its an argument you can't win. This accident at PP or the incident at M:S had nothing to do with the rides nor the people who made them.
