Who thinks the "Mission: Space" ride in Disneyworld needs to be shut down?

Question

Too many people have been hurt or killed because of it.

I've never been to Disneyworld or Land. Cant afford it, plus those kinds of rides make me sick.

And warnings dont do much for people who have no idea they have medical problems, like the four year old boy who died.

Oh gosh, I'm not trying to protect anyone, I'm just asking people's opinions. Why does every get so freaking defensive on here??

Answer 1

No! Have you been on it? It's amazing.

Mission: SPACE is a motion simulator thrill ride at Epcot, It simulates what an astronaut might experience aboard a spacecraft on a mission to Mars, from the higher g-forces of blastoff to the speculative hypersleep.

The minimum height requirement for Mission: SPACE is 44 inches (112 cm). Warnings throughout the attraction caution that people who do not like enclosed spaces, spinning, or are prone to motion sickness should not ride. Signs also warn that the ride may cause nausea, headache, dizziness or disorientation, and that people prone to motion sickness, or who have a headache or an inner ear problem, or who have a history of migraines, vertigo or elevated anxiety also should not ride.

Disney's web site advises guests that they "should be in good health and free from high blood pressure, heart, back or neck problems, motion sickness, or other conditions that could be aggravated by this adventure. Expectant mothers should not ride."

***Undiagnosed Heart Condition Caused Mission: SPACE Death
The four-year-old boy who died after riding the Mission: SPACE attraction at Walt Disney World's Epcot in June 2005 had a rare, undetected heart condition that killed him, the chief medical examiner of Florida's Orange County concluded in a released autopsy report.***

If your an adult and or have children it is your job to keep yourself and child safe. Disney can't watch everyone and know everything about everything. It's YOUR job to know yourself and body! The 4-year-old boy was a rare case.

Answer 2

Sorry, but there are warnings all over the attraction. Yes, it is sad that if someone is injured because of an unknown medical condition, but you can get hurt by tripping down a flight of stairs or getting hit by a car. Shutting down an amusment park ride solves nothing

Answer 3

If you shut that down, then we should ban all cars, way more people are killed and hurt by cars.

Quit trying to protect everybody else and worry about what you do.

Answer 4

I think it should be shut down!

Answer 5

I agree
