Amusement parks can be as dangerous and deadly as often as they are fun and exciting. In the year 2000 there were over 10,000 emergency room visits because of amusement park injuries. Most of the injuries were to girls under the age of 10.

Most injuries in amusement parks occur because of poor maintenance, failure to advise visitors of hazards, and the inattention of employees to the safety of the public. Owners and operators have a responsibility to provide fun in a safe and secure environment and can be held responsible for any negligence that causes harm.

If you suffered an injury at an amusement park you may be entitled to collect a settlement based on your damages. Contact an amusement park accident lawyer today.

Disney World Stroke & Heart Attack on Mission Space

A number of Disney World and Disneyland rides have had a history of causing serious injury, but the death of a German tourist who recently died from a stroke after riding Walt Disney World's Mission: Space is causing careful scrutiny of the dangerous ride.  Disney officials have declined to comment on the death so far. 

Hiltrud Bleumel died soon after a CT scan showed hypertensive bleeding from within her brain.  The 49-year-old woman from Schmitten outside of Frankfurt had claimed to have felt dizzy and ill after the ride ended and was taken to Florida Hospital Celebration Health shortly after 2 PM, where she was pronounced dead around 24 hours later.

The notorious ride consists of a $100 million centrifuge that spins park visitors at the speed of double Earth's gravity and many riders have complained of nausea and other symptoms of motion sickness since it opened in 2003 and Daudi Bamuwamye, a 4-year-old from Pennsylvania suffering from a rare heart condition who died last June because of the same ride.

When amusement parks and other attractions fail to adequately protect riders from deadly complications due to their rides, someone deserves to be held accountable.  Unfortunately, more innocent victims may die before park officials acknowledge responsibility and work to prevent future casualties.  If you have been injured or have lost a loved one to a ride such as Walt Disney World's Mission: Space, make sure to contact a knowledgeable and experienced attorney today.
