ive seen a couple of scary things.
i was working at gift stop and i walked backstage to get more ice from the cooler, and there were a whole bunch of fire trucks and ambulances parked out behind the seas. apparently, someone had dived too low in the scuba diving experience and had a heart attack.
a young boy had a heat stroke just infront of camera center and collapsed on the ground. his parents helped him to stand, which obviusly wasn't smart because he started vomitting and generally not looking too well. we had to call the "ambulance" people and keep people away. it was scary because little kids kept asking what was wrong with him and why he wouldn't open up his eyes. he was okay once the paramedics got him out of the heat.
uhm..the first night i heard the holiday tag for the end of illuminations. it was so loud it shook our doors down in the front of the park. scared me half to death.
and the night we were out late collecting wheel chairs from the monorail and bus stop. the lights all of a sudden went off, as well as the park music. a dark space ship earth is not pretty. i had this experience before by walking through the park to get to where the cm's park their cars. i got as far as the fountains before all the lights in future world shut off, as well as the music. i was terrified and walked as fast as i could. when i reached the bridge that connects world showcase and future world, i turned around and couldn't even see spaceship earth anymore. i only had to go to mexico because cm parking is behind it, but still. that was scary.
my scariest experience as a guest would probably have to be when we took my nephew on everest. he was only 4 but he was tall enough and wanted to ride it so badly, so me and my brother agreed. he loves big monsters like the kraken and sharks, etc, so we figured he'd love the yeti. and he was just fine with the ride up until we got to the part where you see the yeti's shadow ripping up the tracks. i have never seen a child that terrified in my life and i never want to see him or any child make that face ever again. he was shaking and crying when we got off, and i felt so bad because i couldn't do anything. now, he wants to ride it again, but i refuse to be the one to sit by him. i love the ride, but it scares me with him on it.
that was the only time when my sister got scared on teh ride, she was 8.

I'll never forget that.
