Disney World Accident & Injury Report for 2nd Quarter of 2025

Injury Report for Walt Disney World: Second Quarter 2025 Highlights Safety and Caution in the Parks

The latest MOU Exempt Facilities Report from the Florida Department of Agriculture has dropped, offering a quarterly snapshot of theme park incidents from April through June 2025. While it’s far from a thrill-killer, it’s a reminder that even the most magical vacation can come with real-world risks.

Let’s break down what was reported at Walt Disney World:

• April 22, 2025 – Buzz Lightyear’s Space Ranger Spin (Magic Kingdom): A 76-year-old female guest fell while exiting the ride vehicle and injured her right leg. While this attraction is relatively tame compared to some of the resort’s thrill rides, disembarking ride vehicles can sometimes trip up even seasoned space cadets.
• May 3, 2025 – DINOSAUR (Disney’s Animal Kingdom): An 87-year-old woman with a pre-existing condition lost consciousness after riding. DINOSAUR’s jerky movements and sudden darkness can surprise guests—even those expecting a bumpy ride through the Cretaceous.
• June 21, 2025 – The Liberty Bell Riverboat (Magic Kingdom): A 44-year-old man reported right arm pain while aboard the historic steamboat. While typically a peaceful voyage, it’s a good reminder that even slow-moving attractions can pose challenges for those with medical vulnerabilities.

These reports are self-disclosed by the parks and only include cases where guests required transport to a hospital. Due to privacy protections, updates on the guests’ conditions aren’t shared publicly, and parks only report what’s known at the time.

Also worth noting: major parks like Disney World are exempt from regular state ride inspections due to their size and their own internal safety and inspection teams. Still, they are required to report serious injuries and medical incidents, maintaining a level of transparency in exchange for that exemption.

The takeaway? Disney remains one of the safest places to play, but even in the Most Magical Place on Earth, guests should ride smart. Know your health, take it easy in the summer heat, and don’t be afraid to skip a ride if it doesn’t feel right.

We’ll continue to monitor these quarterly reports to keep you informed about what’s happening behind the scenes at Florida’s top parks.
