Guest Injures Arm On Ride At Typhoon Lagoon
On Saturday afternoon, a 44-year-old man was injured at Typhoon Lagoon on the popular raft ride Miss Adventure Falls. Apparently, his arm got caught in one of the conveyor belts. The injuries are not life-threatening, but the guest was airlifted to the Osceola County Regional Medical Center according to the Orange County Sheriff’s Office.
A statement was released by a spokesperson for Disney:
“A guest’s arm was injured while on Miss Adventure Falls water attraction at Typhoon Lagoon. The attraction is currently closed while we review the incident. Right now, our care and concern is with the guest and his family.”
The Reedy Creek Fire Department would not comment on their involvement in the rescue.
Miss Adventure Falls is a fast-paced waterslide journey.
Gather your crew and climb aboard for a thrilling, white-water voyage you won’t want to “Miss.”
Just beyond the pineapple fields of Crush ‘n’ Gusher awaits an all-new, family-raft attraction owned by Captain Mary Oceaneer—a sea-faring treasure hunter whose haul was caught in a rogue typhoon… and scattered across this tropical paradise years ago.
From your 4-person raft, feel a rush of excitement with family and friends as an aquatic conveyor belt chutes you into action. Then, hold on tight as you spy precious artifacts collected from all around the globe.
If you’re lucky enough, you may even meet the captain’s old diving partner—a talking parrot who’s still hunting for treasures at Disney’s Typhoon Lagoon water park to this day!
