Sometimes guests experience scary or unexpected moments when visiting Disney. Just in the past week at Walt Disney World, guests saw emergency vehicles drive down Main Street to a scene of a fire.

Thankfully, everything turned out to be okay, but it was definitely something that has not been seen at the Magic Kingdom before. You can read all about it HERE.

While Disney is known for being a happy place, things do not always go as guests might expect. Attractions go down, power goes out and sometimes mother nature can strike.

Pirates Incident

At Magic Kingdom

Guests on board Pirates of the Caribbean at Disneyland Resort had a scary moment while on board.

As seen in the video shown below, a boat came off of its tracks!

A boat on Pirates of the Caribbean came off of its track with guests still on board at Disneyland Resort.

That’s a scary situation indeed, but it appears that all guests on board were not hurt. However, it’s certain to be quite the scary experience for some.

This is not the first time a boat derailed off of its track for the attraction. A few months ago, a similar situation happened. You can take a look at what happened HERE.

Looking at the Disneyland app, it appears that the attraction is back up and running again. It seems like the situation was taken care of quickly without any incident and guests are sailing on a pirate adventure once again.
