Disney World guests suffering 'permanent' injuries after falling off ride: Lawsuit
The Florida man said the incident happened in April 2022
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}A Florida man is suing Disney World after he allegedly fell off a ride at the Magic Kingdom.
Billy Williams said in a lawsuit filed in July that he was on Disney World's Haunted Mansion ride on April 28, 2022 with his wife when a ride operator hit an emergency stop button.
Once the button was pressed, the ride jolted without any warning, causing Williams to fall from the ride and onto the ground, according to the lawsuit.
