I am finally glad that all the speculation about Disney rides being unsafe:
MIAMI, Florida (CNN) -- A boy who died this summer after riding the "Mission Space" ride at Walt Disney World's Epcot Center in Orlando had a pre-existing heart condition, according to autopsy reports.
Four-year-old Daudi Bamuwamye lost consciousness while on the ride in June. The autopsy report released Tuesday by the Orange County Medical Examiner's Office states the boy died as a result of the heart condition.
Toward the end of the ride the boy became rigid, and when the ride ended, Bamuwamye's body "was limp and unresponsive," his mother, Agnes Bamuwamye, told authorities.
Paramedics and a park employee tried to revive him. He died later at the hospital.
The autopsy report states the boy suffered from a heart condition that affected his heart's left ventricle. The boy's family was unaware of the condition, said a spokesman in the medical examiner's office.
