Re: Fun at Disney Land

January 19, 1979--Sherrill Anne Hoffman, ignoring the signs posted outside Space Mountain warning guests with any medical conditions to bypass such tumultuous rides, boarded Space Mountain and started to ride through it. During the ride, she got sick and when her ride vehicle reached the unload area, she couldn't get out of the rocket. Employees told her to stay in her rocket and that rocket would be removed from the track. Unfortunately the attendants didn't understand the instruction, and sent Hoffman's vehicle on another three-minute go-round. By the end of the second trip, she was almost unconscious. She was carried to a bench and then transported in a wheelchair to First Aid. They told her husband not to worry; she only fainted. But then he insisted that she be sent to the hospital after her condition didn't improve. She was taken to the hospital where she remained in a coma for a week and then died. It was later revealed that she had a tumor in her heart. It was possible that the ride removed it, and it entered her brain and killed her. Her husband tried to sue the park, convinced that the second Space Mountain trip broke the tumor free and that the park declined to properly or quickly care for her. The case was eventually dismissed.

wtf that is aggg
