On another website in a discussion of wdw it was mentioned that one disney employee has already died at the park this year, mayne im losing my memory, but does anyone have info on this and if it is true or not???

11 Feb 2004 38-year-old employee Javier Cruz, dressed in a Pluto costume, is crushed to death by a parade float backstage near Splash Mountain.

It would seem so.

Sadly, a cast member did die this year. Here is a link to the thread where it was discussed here on the rumors board

There was also a CM that jumped onto the Monorail Tracks at the Contemporary...and a Guest that drowned recently after an arugment with their spouse too. Last year or so right ? Or was that the year before?
