I can't believe you fuckers are all about sueing Disney. The woman brought a defective child on the ride, took a chance and lost. Now she feels bad about her actions and will likely let one of the 75 scumbag lawyers who are calling her file a suit.



I think it depends on the autopsy findings. You seem to be assuming that because everyone else walked away fine, that nothing actually went wrong with the ride, the kid just couldn't take the strain. If that does turn out to be the case, I agree that a lawsuit could not be justified. Any healthy human being should be able to withstand a 2G pull. It will probably turn out that the kid had a congenital heart defect or something, that would have been triggered sooner or later by sports or other strenuous activity.

On the other hand, with some sorts of ride there would be the possibilty that he wasn't strapped in correctly and had too much force put on his neck as a consequence.

Edited to add: Just found this. Initial autopsy reports no trauma, so It looks like the kid must have had a medical problem.
