In a Reddit Thread, a Disney Guest talks about the medical emergency they experienced while watching the firework show. This Guest had an epilepsy attack while in the middle of the show when Cast Members came in no time and made a barricade to keep this Guest out of other’s view when paramedics arrived on site, Disney Cast Members had Main Street, U.S.A cleared, which usually is very crowded.

“My boyfriend had an epilepsy attack in the middle of the fireworks show. It was insane how organized they were about it. Disney paid for all the medical stuff, the Uber from the hospital back to our car and welcomed us back to the park the next day at no cost.”

 We were right in the middle of the fireworks at magic kingdom and They had cast members blocking him off with a good amount of space within 3 minutes. And not just 1-2 cast members, like 10 cast members creating a human barricade to keep him out of everyone’s view. By the time the paramedics came, they had the entire Main Street cleared of people.

When this Guest came to they were wondering what had happened and they explained to stay calm that they were in the parade and this Guest started waving to the crowd and the crowds cheered. Disney made this Guests trip right by allowing them to come back for free the next day to redo this Guest’s first experience.
