I've heard that there was a crash at Lights, Motors, Actions today. The driver was air lifted via helicopter to Celebration hospital. Has anyone heard anything else about this accident? See the update in post #26.

Thoughts and Prayers to the motorcyclist and family.

Where did you hear this, Aaron? I don't see it anywhere on the internet, or on local (Orlando) news pages.

I haven't found anything on the Orlando news sites yet. Also check Orlando newspaper.

There's someone doing a live trip report (I think Theme Park Attractions & Strategies Board) who witnessed it today. She wasn't sure if it was part of the show or not. She said it was a motorcycle crash. They quickly tented the area & got everyone out of the stadium. This is so sad to hear he actually died as a result.

I searched for the trip report you spoke of.
Poster said guy fell on a motorcycle and grabbed his knee. They brought out a tent then ended show.
Hopefully it was no serious injuries, just rumors. This does not sound life threating.
I would say just wait for more credible info. Any accident would be officially reported by disney eventually.

Is it just me or does this pop up farily often. Hopefully all is well this time, after reading about 4-5 post like this in the past I'm always a doubting thomas.

Apparently, the motorcyclist did survive the crash; which is good news. Here's a link to the report.

Sorry to post the wrong information and make it sound worst than it was. I'm going to edit the information so it doesn't create a stir.

Jeez, was there yesterday and wondered why LMA seemed like it was "closed". We didn't plan on seeing the show cause the kids are still too young, but it's interesting how I didn't hear anything whatsoever while being in the park all day long.

Hope the driver/rider is going to be okay.

This story must not have been high on the list of stories to cover. I watched the news on Channel 9 (WFTV) last night and there was nothing about the crash.

I then read the Orlando Sentinel this morning and didn't see anything in the paper.

Just a littel blurb on WESH's web site.

Strange....
