Miami: A four-year-old boy has died after passing out on a ride at Walt Disney World that is so intense it carries sick bags and has resulted in several passengers being treated for chest pain.
Staff at the Florida theme park tried to revive Daudi Bamuwamye after his mother carried him off the Mission: Space attraction unconscious on Tuesday. He was taken to a nearby hospital but died.

I really dont understand things like this. I guess im not entirely in a position to really say how intense Mission Space actually is because ive never been on it. But I KNOW there are many more intense rides out there, especially rollercoasters, that nothing like this has ever happened on. Obviously wasnt a ride malfunction. Only explination is sometimes freak things do happen. I wouldnt expect it to close down for too long though, as soon as its inspected and found to be OK, it'll be back up.

EDIT: Looks like its allready back up. Go figure. Obviously, the ride is not at fault here.

I've been on that ride. I came out dizzy after it. They put a lot of pressure on your body. It was kind of annoying. It's sad that kid died though.

I thought Tower of Terror would be the ride that could kill someone :P

i heard on howard stern that the kid didn't even meet the height requirements for the ride... who let him in?

ToT got my stomach and intestines full of gas, and I'm not saying this to be funny. I couldn't walk, it hurt so much. I managed to pass it 3 hours later. 3 hours of walking in a crouched position...

And even though that kid died on the ride, I would still like to try it.
