Summary
Florida's latest quarterly theme-park report said a 54-year-old man suffered a cardiac emergency on Disney World's "It's a Small World" on April 2 and later died at a hospital.
The report said the guest had a pre-existing heart condition; the ride is a gentle 10-minute boat attraction in Magic Kingdom's Fantasyland.
Five other Disney World medical incidents were listed for the spring, including a 75-year-old woman who hit her head exiting Space Mountain and a 44-year-old man who reported back pain on Tiana's Bayou Adventure.
Fatal theme-park incidents in the U.S. are rare, and the state filing grouped the death with other ride-related illnesses and injuries from the reporting period.
