Truth or rumor???

Found this on a different website.

Screamscape spies sent us an interesting story that Disney apparently was able to keep under the news radar. It seems that things got a little out of control inside Stitch’s Great Escape a couple of weeks ago when apparently in the middle of a show the Stitch figure, which will filled with hydraulic fluid, apparently exploded that fluid all over the captive audience. Hydraulic fluid is said to burn and irrate bare skin on contact, so the whole theater full of people had to be taken backstage to be cleaned up, given all new clothing and apparently comped them to infinity and beyond to keep the occurrence quiet. Of course this isn’t the first time something like this has happened with an animatronic figure... there was a famous incident on Jurassic Park in Hollywood where the giant T-Rex at the end of the ride barfed up hydraulic fluid over several boats before the problem was discovered.

I read about this incident a few weeks ago on a other thread...but there was no follow-up on it.

I think that person was scooped up by MTS ( Mickey's tactical squad) and you to will be missed.

I think what you are asking about is fact. A lady I work with was in WDW the first week in June and she ran into a family that were all wearing WDW t-shirts. The mother of the family started talking to my friend and said that they had been given the t-shirts and some other clothing items because they had been sprayed with some type of oil on the stitch ride. The lady said it was really gross and several other people were also sprayed. I'm not sure about any serious injuries, but some mention of some minor skin irritations.

On my upcoming trip to WDW I will go to the source and get the straight scoop for you - a WDW bus driver.
