A recent Reddit post from a Disney guest has stirred up chatter among theme park fans after they claim to have seen someone cut their arm on the Incredicoaster—and that blood was left on the ride without proper cleanup before sending the vehicle back out.
The eyewitness shared their experience:
“I just saw the craziest thing happen. We were waiting to get onto the coaster and a guy in the 2nd row must have cut his arm on a piece of the coaster. They had him get off along with the rest of the people. But here’s where it got crazy.”
They went on to express concern over how Disney handled the situation next:
“No one wiped it up. There was quite a bit of blood and instead they just sent it. I don’t know if there were people on the second half of it and it went through or if it got moved to the side, but if it went through the ride with blood all over it — that’s a big deal.”
Naturally, this set off a flurry of comments from the Disney community, many weighing in on ride safety and cleaning protocols.
One user with apparent knowledge of park procedures reassured:
“When there is blood in a vehicle, we remove it from service immediately for custodial to come and clean it. If the bleed was caused by the vehicle, it is also removed, so maintenance can inspect the vehicle to make sure it’s not a safety issue. This is the standard practice across the parks.”
Another fan chimed in with some insider info about how the Incredicoaster’s maintenance bay operates:
“The maintenance bay for IC is right behind the load section. Typically they just stop loading and move the coaster backwards into that area. It is a bit weird they would send it through the ride first, but maybe there’s some machinations I don’t know about.”
The conversation took a serious turn when one commenter pointed out the biohazard risks:
“Blood is considered a biohazard and in some areas you have to be trained in the proper way to remove it before you’re allowed to remove it. I had to take a bunch of classes on biohazards in our state before I could teach an after school program, including what the chemical signs all mean, mandatory reporting, and what abuse looks like, super fun.”
Finally, some speculated the cause of the injury might not have been the ride itself, as that would have triggered a far bigger park-wide response:
“If the ride stayed open it’s very likely they got cut by something someone else dropped. Otherwise if it was from the ride itself they would have closed it and the rest of Pixar Pier to prepare for investigations and lawyers.”
For now, Disney has not issued any statements on the incident. But the post has sparked debate about ride safety, cleanliness, and how much guests really know about what goes on behind the scenes.
If nothing else, it’s a reminder to stay alert when hopping on any coaster—and maybe keep an eye out for sharp edges!
