The 13-year-old visitor exited the ride vehicle before the end of the attraction on Sunday, June 21st, and was taken to the hospital for his injuries following the fall, according to the Orange County Register.

A Cast Member immediately stopped the attraction once the incident occurred, and the boy was later evaluated at a local hospital as a precaution before being released, Disneyland officials said. The incident took place around 6 PM on June 21st, and Tiana’s Bayou Adventure remained closed for the rest of the evening.

The ride later reopened on Monday, June 22nd. Eyewitnesses shared on Reddit that they saw the boy “falling,” “tumbling,” or “sliding” down the drop hill.

Disneyland security and medics responded to the incident, according to the witnesses.

The Disneyland version of the ride does not require lap bars or seat belts, and it’s unclear at this time why the boy exited the ride vehicle.
