A 54-year-old Walt Disney World guest died in April after suffering a cardiac arrest while riding the "It's a Small World" attraction, according to a report from the Florida Department of Agriculture & Consumer Services. The incident occurred on April 2.
The guest, who had a pre-existing heart condition, was transported to a local hospital, where he later died. The death was not publicly announced until Wednesday, when the department released its second-quarter report on theme park injuries.
The "It's a Small World" ride has been a staple at the park since its opening in 1971. The report details theme park incidents, including injuries and deaths, that occur on attractions.
