Girl suffers cardiac arrest after riding Tower of Terror; ride not faulted
Sixteen-year-old Leanna Deacon of Kibworth, Leicester in the United Kingdom,
fell ill and was hospitalized last Tuesday after riding the Tower of Terror
attraction at the Disney-MGM Studios park. After riding the attraction,
the girl complained of a headache. Her mother, June, who was accompanying
her, took her back inside to sit down.
June Deacon approached Disney Merchandise Manager Howard Rutkowitz to
ask if there was a place to sit down. Rutkowitz, noting that the girl
looked flushed and disoriented, led them to a bench and offered to call
paramedics and bring Leanna some water. She accepted the water but asked
that he not call the paramedics. When he returned with the water, he again
asked about calling paramedics, and this time the mother agreed.
While on the phone with the 911 operator, Rutkowitz reported that the
girl was shaking very badly and clinging to her mother. He later told
investigators from the sheriff’s department that he also saw her “dry
heave” twice, which was confirmed by another Disney employee.
Reedy Creek Emergency Services paramedics arrived within five minutes.
The girl had been complaining that her head hurt, but became unresponsive
to questions during a conversation with the paramedics. She was taken
backstage on a stretcher and taken via ambulance to Florida Hospital Celebration
Health.
Reports indicate that the girl suffered cardiac arrest in the ambulance
but was brought back by the paramedics. After being examined at Celebration
Hospital, a CAT scan indicated bleeding on the girl’s brain, and she was
rushed into emergency surgery. She reportedly also suffered several cardiac
arrests during the surgery. She was later flown via helicopter to Florida
Hospital Orlando, where she remains in critical condition.
Leanna Deacon, who is athletic and very active, was in good health, but
had been complaining of headaches and leg cramps for several days, according
to the incident report from the Orange County Sheriff’s Office. She had
also been on the Tower of Terror attraction “many times” earlier
in the week with no ill effects. An on-ride photograph provided to the
investigators by Rutkowitz showed Leanna Deacon smiling as she rode the
attraction.
Examination of the elevator car ridden by the Deacons showed that, while
there were some minor malfunctions in the car that morning, the sheriff’s
incident report states that a Disney maintenance worked indicated that
“the faults with Vehicle 3 were ‘in no way a safety concern or could
in no way cause injury.’” Disney took the unusual step of inviting
the Florida Bureau of Fair Rides Inspection to accompany them as they
examined the attraction to determine whether it was safe to reopen. The
Tower of Terror did, in fact, reopen on Wednesday morning.
Preliminary reports indicate that the cardiac arrest may have been due
to an undetected aneurism that ruptured, causing a hemorrhage in Leanna’s
brain; however, this has not been confirmed at press time. The girl remains
in critical condition at Florida Hospital Orlando.
This incident comes less than a month after four-year-old Daudi Bamuwamye
died after riding Mission: Space. Autopsy results on the boy are expected
in September.
Disney resort guests get easier dining reservations
Dining reservations just got a new twist. As of this morning, when guests
staying at Disney-owned and -operated resorts (the Swan, Dolphin and Shades
of Green are not included) reach their 90-day booking window for the beginning
of their trip, they may now make reservations for ten days’ worth of Advance
Dining Reservations. The dining agent will confirm your hotel reservation
before making the dining reservations. Those not staying at Disney resorts
will need to continue making reservations on a rolling 90-day basis. This
policy also extends to other experiences reserved through WDW Dining,
407-WDW-DINE (407-939-3463), such as the Pirate Cruise and Wonderland
Tea Party at the Grand Floridian.
Apparently, the new policy will not be opening all reservations for a
given restaurant for early booking, however. A sliding percentage of seats
will be made available for early booking, with fewer seats opening up
for the more popular restaurants. This means that very few seats will
be opened up for the Princess character meals at Cinderella’s Royal Table
and Restaurant Akershus. However, it will give resort guests an additional
chance to snag a reservation, first at their 90-day-plus-ten window, then
again when the rest of the reservations open up at 90 days out.
While the tough-to-get seats will remain difficult, what the policy does
is allow resort guests to make all of their reservations with one call
(with the possible exception of high-demand seats), lowering the number
of required long-distance calls. While not quite back to the old days
of “only resort guests can make advance reservations,” Disney
has given guests one more incentive to stay on-property.

Ears to the ground
…In what appears to be a continuation of CEO-elect Robert Iger’s
attempt to focus attention on cast members as the company’s greatest asset,
a new window will be unveiled this morning on Main Street U.S.A. honoring
the entire cast of the Walt Disney World Resort, past and present. The
window for the “Magic Kingdom Casting Agency” will go up near the Center
Street expansion of the Emporium (Emporium Gallery).
…The Main Street Train Station has begun a lengthy rehab that will
run through the middle of December. Guests will still be able to board
the train at the station, though the entrance and exit may be relocated
during the work. The area surrounding the locker rental stand will be
inaccessible due to renovations that are rumored to be moving stroller
rentals into that location. The station is also slated to receive new
glass, canopies, paint and so forth.
…The Magic Kingdom is standing down from red alert, dropping the
Carousel of Progress, Hall of Presidents, Enchanted Tiki Room – Under
New Management and Liberty Square Riverboat from evening Extra Magic Hours.
Other recent additions will be remaining for the time being.
…The large tree is taking shape at Pooh’s Playful Spot, which is
still scheduled to open in September; however, the vast majority of the
former lagoon and show building area remains empty awaiting two as-yet
unannounced future projects. The remaining space is large enough for an
attraction about the size of a Fantasyland dark ride and another attraction
around the size of Haunted Mansion.
…In remembrance of the 28th anniversary of Elvis Presley’s death
on August 16, Pleasure Island becomes Elvis Island the weekend of August
18-20.
…El Pirata y El Perico Restaurante opens Mondays through Wednesdays
for the near term. The Tomorrowland Terrace Noodle Station has closed
again. There is no return date for that location.
…There will be 12:30 a.m. showings of the SpectroMagic parade tonight
and Friday during evening Extra Magic Hours.
…The commemorative Coke bottles for Disneyland’s 50th anniversary
