Video: Guest Jumps off stopped Gran Fiesta Tour, Fights with Guests and Cast Members Before Being Banned
A recent incident at EPCOT’s Gran Fiesta Tour involving a reportedly intoxicated guest (Karen) has garnered attention after going viral online.
User @Shianne_1995 posted two videos capturing the incident, which unfolded when several boats came to a halt near the ride’s exit. The impatient guest decided to disembark, stumbling along the emergency exit platform while Cast Members urged her to return to her seat. Concerned guests from her boat attempted to get the attention of the Cast Members, with one even making a call.

Amid the commotion, someone off-screen called for Disney security. Despite pleas from other guests to be allowed off the boat, the Cast Members were unable to move the boats forward safely with a standing guest (Karen) present. The intoxicated individual engaged in arguments with fellow guests. In a moment captured on video, a person, likely a Cast Member, warned the guest that she had thirty seconds to comply or face consequences.
The second video shows the guest defiantly declaring her intention to leave, unhooking a rope and proceeding through the roped-off area toward the unloading zone. A Cast Member intervened, informing her that she was not allowed to exit. Undeterred, the guest climbed over the ropes surrounding a podium, disappearing from sight. However, the Cast Member assured her that she would not be allowed to leave the building.
The caption accompanying the TikTok videos described the guest’s unruly behavior, including screaming, attempting to fight with other passengers, swinging at young workers, and causing fear among children. Ultimately, security had to be called to escort her out, and subsequent reports indicate that she has been banned from Walt Disney World.
This is not the first time in the past month a guest decided to exit a ride vehicle. Less than 2 weeks ago a Guest Jumped Out of a Stopped Ride Vehicle Inside Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind.
