A guest suffered a heart emergency while riding “it’s a small world” in April at Walt Disney World and later passed away at a local hospital.

According to TMZ, a 54-year-old man with a pre-existing condition experienced a cardiac medical emergency while riding “it’s a small world” on April 24. He was transported to a local hospital, where he died.
“it’s a small world” is a gentle, slow-moving, whimsical ten-minute boat ride where guests float through vibrant, multi-continental scenes that feature over 300 colorful Audio-animatronic dolls.
Earlier in July, there was a “fire on it’s a small world“. A video, posted on TikTok, July 1, shows guests evacuating the attraction. Disney later confirmed a guest’s personal phone charger caught on fire while on the ride—likely while loading or unloading. Cast Members reacted quickly and immediately put it out, and ride operations resumed shortly after the incident. No one was injured.
