A 13-year-old boy fell 50 feet at Disneyland after climbing out of a vehicle on Tiana's Bayou Adventure before it stopped, GB News reported. The boy continued along part of the attraction's path before cast members assisted him. Resort officials said he was taken to a hospital as a precaution but did not suffer critical injuries and was released.
California's Division of Occupational Safety and Health inspected the ride after the incident and approved it to reopen the next day. Tiana's Bayou Adventure opened in November 2024. The log flume attraction, based on the 2009 film The Princess and the Frog, features a 50-foot drop as its climax.
Log flumes typically operate without seatbelts or lap bars because their design prevents dangerous forces from ejecting passengers. Two similar incidents occurred at the Disney World version of the ride last summer, when guests exited vehicles mid-ride.
