1st Quarter 2012 Park Injuries Report

[Cheshire Figment]

Central Florida's big theme parks reported 16 guest injuries during the first quarter of 2012, including 10 at Walt Disney World, four at Universal Orlando and two at Legoland Florida.

Florida parks owned by SeaWorld Parks & Entertainment didn't report any injuries for the three-month period. Neither did Wet 'n Wild.

Here is the report from the June 18 Orlando Sentinel.

wow looks like @ DW they were all old or at least middle aged, looks like for kids it safe but for the rest of us not so much

Of course, combining this with the 2011 Worldwide Park Attendance Report in 1/4 of the year the four WDW theme parks plus the two water parks would have a combined attendance of about 12,850,000 with only ten reportable injuries and no deaths is a very good number.

I wonder if I was the 1 that wasn't listed (they said 10 but only listed 9 in the article) ... I fell at AK and tore my knee up, paramedics came, blood pouring out my knee, my kids crying.... but I didn't go to the hospital... and then ended up with MRSA. I didn't report the MRSA to Disney since I was already home.

I don't think you would have been the missing one. Unless the accident had attraction involvement. If you were just on the street and tripped that would not be a reportable accident.
