Riders Attempt to Leave Tiana’s Bayou Adventure Boat Just Before the Big Drop After Being Stuck

Another safety incident has occurred aboard Tiana’s Bayou Adventure at Disneyland, after guests reportedly attempted to exit their ride vehicle just before the attraction’s final drop.

According to a video shared on social media by @adventuresbyprince, the guests in the log flume directly ahead stood up and attempted to leave their ride vehicle moments before the attraction’s signature 50-foot drop. The ride immediately came to a stop, and a Disney Cast Member instructed the guests over the attraction’s intercom to remain where they were.

The guest who shared the video said the incident left everyone on the attraction stranded for more than 30 minutes while Disney responded. They also claimed that security was still searching for the individuals after the ride resumed, though that detail has not been independently confirmed by Disney.

The incident comes just over a week after another highly publicized safety event on Disneyland’s version of Tiana’s Bayou Adventure, when a young guest exited a ride vehicle before the attraction had completed its course and fell down the flume. That previous incident drew widespread attention and served as a reminder of why guests should always remain seated and follow Cast Member instructions throughout the duration of any attraction.

Unlike the Walt Disney World version, Tiana’s Bayou Adventure at Disneyland features single-row seating without lap restraints, making it easier for guests to climb out of the log if they choose to ignore safety rules. Regardless of the attraction design, Disney’s safety procedures require guests to remain seated until instructed otherwise.

As of now, Tiana’s Bayou Adventure is operating normally at Disneyland.
