The ride was stopped after <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/family-kicked-out-of-whole-foods-because-disabled-daughter-couldnt-wear-mask\/\" title=\"Family Kicked Out Of Whole Foods Because Disabled Daughter Couldn...t Wear Mask\">staff noticed<\/a>, but the teen had already fallen, though he fortunately avoided serious injuries and was released from medical care. Social media posts, including videos, went viral showing the incident, generating reactions and discussions about safety protocols. Disneyland responded by suspending the ride for inspection, which was reopened after safety checks. The attraction, previously Splash Mountain, was rebranded and reopened in 2024.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><br \/>\n<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC \"-\/\/W3C\/\/DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional\/\/EN\" \"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/TR\/REC-html40\/loose.dtd\"><br \/>\n<?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><html><body><\/p>\n<section> \t\t\t\t<script>console.log(\"ad slot (AC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC3)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC4)\")<\/script><\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s the \u201cHappiest Place on Earth\u201d\u2122 \u2014 unless you happen to be falling 50 feet down a waterfall for Father\u2019s Day.<\/p>\n<p>Disneyland \u2014 the one in Anaheim, California \u2014 recently became the subject of unflattering attention when one of the park\u2019s guests took a ride that the House of Mouse wasn\u2019t exactly planning for.<\/p>\n<p>According to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/travel\/disney-scare-unfolds-after-teen-exits-log-ride-moments-before-50-foot-plunge\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Fox News<\/a>, on Sunday, a 13-year-old park visitor went on Tiana\u2019s Bayou Adventure, a \u201cPrincess and the Frog\u201d rebrand of Disney\u2019s iconic Splash Mountain attraction, like countless others before him.<\/p>\n<p>Unlike all of those other visitors, however, this young teen ended his ride in quite a unique manner.<\/p>\n<p>For the unaware, Bayou Adventure, just like Splash Mountain, ends with the log flume going over a waterfall for the steepest and biggest (and usually wettest) drop of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/harry-and-meghans-taxi-driver-speaks-out-on-car-chase-narrative\/\" title=\"Taxi driver speaks up about Harry and Meghan&#039;s car chase story.\">entire ride<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Apparently, this teen escaped the flume at the height of the drop, and tumbled down Bayou Adventure\u2019s waterfall in a manner that would\u2019ve made Evel Knievel think twice.<\/p>\n<p>(It\u2019s unclear if the teen was somehow jostled loose from his seat, or if he was intentionally trying to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/woman-survives-being-buried-alive-says-husband-was-trying-to-kill-her\/\" title=\"Woman Survives Being Buried Alive, Says Husband Was Trying To Kill Her\">wiggle free<\/a>, as the ride takes a photo of guests during that drop, and many guests usually try to do something memorable for that photo.)<\/p>\n<p>You can watch the viral video \u2014 already seen millions of times on X \u2014 for yourself below:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Terrifying new video shows the moment a 13-year-old boy at Disneyland tumbled down a 50-foot waterfall after getting out of a moving ride. \ud83d\ude33 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/z5jM0BJxIV\">pic.twitter.com\/z5jM0BJxIV<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 TMZ (@TMZ) <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/TMZ\/status\/2069539242213277712?\">June 23, 2026<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.x.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Reports suggested that Disneyland employees and medical first responders swiftly arrived at the scene.<\/p>\n<p>Social media was awash with reactions, as well as some alleged firsthand accounts from people who were there that day.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe attempted to exit the ride vehicle at the top of the final drop,\u201d a Reddit user wrote of the incident, per Fox News. \u201cThe <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\" >ride stop mechanism failed<\/a> to engage or was already past the threshold for the vehicle to enter free fall.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLuck was on his side,\u201d another Reddit user chimed in.<\/p>\n<p>Thankfully \u2014 and somewhat miraculously \u2014 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tmz.com\/2026\/06\/23\/video-shows-boy-falling-down-tianas-bayou-adventure-waterfall-at-disneyland\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">TMZ<\/a> reported that the 13-year-old boy somehow avoided any major injuries.
