LAKE BUENA VISTA, Florida (AP) -- A 4-year-old boy died after passing out while aboard Walt Disney World's "Mission: Space" attraction -- a ride that has caused previous concerns because of its intensity. / Paramedics tried to revive him, but he died about 5 p.m. at Celebration Hospital. The sheriff's office said the boy did meet the minimum 44-inch height requirement for the ride at the Epcot theme park, which simulates twice the normal force of gravity
I was nauseous for the entire afternoon after riding that ride a couple of weeks ago. Its a hell of a good ride though; you'd swear you were taking off in a spaceship. -janelane CNN.com - Boy, 4, dies after riding Epcot attraction - Jun 14, 2005 |
