A Guest Was Rescued After Falling Overboard on Pirates of the Caribbean
Disaster struck late last month at Walt Disney World when a guest fell overboard while being evacuated from Pirates of the Caribbean.
A now-viral video captured the incident, which occurred on July 19. After Pirates of the Caribbean in Magic Kingdom broke down, guests had to undergo a routine evacuation.
Unfortunately, one unlucky guest, who happened to be wearing Crocs at the time, turned her ankle while climbing out of the boat. She then fell backward into the Pirates of the Caribbean waterway.

The incident occurred at Magic Kingdom’s Pirates of the Caribbean on July 29.
The video shows Cast Members attempting to lift the guest up and out of the attraction waterway. After briefly struggling, they appeared to be successful. According to other guests on the ride, the woman seemed to be unconscious.

The guest fell into the attraction’s waterway during an evacuation,
The scene ends after a Cast Member yells, “Hey, sir, no filming.”
Details Remain Unclear
Elsewhere in the video, Cast Members are shown wading in the attraction’s water and pulling the stalled boats through the attraction to an unloading area. This is standard operating procedure for Pirates of the Caribbean breakdowns.
The details surrounding the incident remain unclear. At this time, Disney has not commented. If we get any update, however, we will be sure to pass it along.
