Summary
A 13-year-old guest who climbed out of a log on Tiana’s Bayou Adventure before the ride ended fell down the attraction’s 50-foot final drop Sunday evening.
Disneyland said cast members immediately stopped the ride, and the boy was taken to a local hospital for precautionary evaluation before being released.
The incident happened around 6 p.m.; the ride stayed closed for the rest of the night and reopened Monday.
Reddit eyewitnesses said the boy fell, tumbled or slid down the drop hill, with one saying he suffered only cuts and scrapes.
Tiana’s Bayou Adventure, the 2024 replacement for Splash Mountain, is a log flume ride without lap bars or seat belts.
