Many Guests want to enjoy themselves at Disney World. After all, that’s the whole point of visiting! However, Disney World keeps Guest safety a top priority by taking many precautions. In addition to the Covid-related measures that have been implemented for the last year and a half, there are other things Disney does to keep Guests safe.

One of those is a health warning at most attractions in its theme parks. Upon approaching attractions, you will likely see a sign warning you to not ride if experience health issues. These may include back or heart problems or if you suffer from motion sickness. In addition, many expecting women should not ride certain attractions.

It’s always important to look at these precautions because they are there to help keep you safe. Unfortunately, Disney cannot prevent every injury that may occur within its parks. A new reports shows the number and types of injuries Guests experienced at Disney World in 2021.

I am a 65 yof. When we were there in December, I fell getting off the bus because I stepped down with my right leg, which has always been weak. Silly me! I fell trying to hurry to Rise of Resistance with my grandson. I wasn't paying attention and I didn't see the curb. Third, I cut a gash in my right arm on something sharp on Star Tours. It was bleeding horribly! Went to First Aid, washed it, got antibiotic and bandages. If I had health issues, I wouldn't get on certain rides. People, READ THE SIGNS!

Looks like lots of older folks getting hurt. Maybe Chepak's attempt to price them out of the park is for their own safety, maybe he really is a good guy instead of the greedy b@$t@rd I thought he was -- wait a minute, I just read the Disney CEO compensation article....
