True. Yet of the zillions of people who flock through Mouseland, how many (probably quite a few) have undiagnosed conditions.

 

True.

I was just wondering how many people here might have tried it and what were their reactions.

 

Tried one once in the UK, a place called Alton Towers. Didn't see the appeal, I just got banged around a lot. Very uncomfortable.

Mission: Space

Main article: Mission: Space
  • From June 2005 through June 13, 2006, paramedics were called for 194 Mission Space riders. Dizziness, nausea, and vomiting were the most common complaints, according to Reedy Creek Fire Department records. Out of the 194 riders, 25 people passed out, 26 had difficulty breathing, and 16 reported irregular heartbeats or chest pain.[66]
  • On June 13, 2005, a 4-year-old boy from Sellersville, Pennsylvania, died after riding Mission: Space. An autopsy by the Orange County Medical Examiner's Office released on November 15, 2005, found that the boy died as a result of an existing, undiagnosed idiopathic heart condition called myocardial hypertrophy. On June 12, 2006, his parents filed a lawsuit against Disney, claiming that Disney should have never allowed a 4-year-old on the ride due to the ride’s height restriction for size over 44 inches (110 cm), and did not offer an adequate medical response after he collapsed and later died.[67] A settlement between the child's parents and Disney was reached in October 2006, and the lawsuit was voluntarily dismissed on January 30, 2007.[68]
  • On April 12, 2006, a 49-year-old woman from Schmitten, Germany, fell ill after riding Mission: Space and died at Florida Hospital Celebration Health hospital in nearby Celebration, Florida. An autopsy determined that she died from a brain hemorrhage caused by longstanding and severe high blood pressure; there was no evidence of trauma attributable to the ride.[69]
  • On July 12, 2022, a 47-year-old male lost consciousness after riding the 'green version' of the attraction.[35]

Speaking of rides, I have often wondered why people raise their arms in the air when riding on a roller coaster.  In my yeanger days I used to ride roller coasters but people didn't do that then.

I would like to ride that Disney ride.  I've ridden in the back seat of a Citabria with my flight instructor at the controls trying to make me sick.  He failed.
