One Disney cast member opened up about some of the craziest things he’d seen while working at “The Most Magical Place on Earth.”
The Disney parks are magical because of how they cater to both adults and children alike. Whether its the Disney magic that one feels while on a classic attraction like “it’s a small world” at Magic Kingdom Park in Walt Disney World Resort or Disneyland Park in Disneyland Resort or even ones like the Incredicoaster at Disney California Adventure Park or Tower of Terror in Disney’s Hollywood Studios.
But there are times when the magic of the parks is taken over by guests who forget the appropriate decorum for a Disney theme park.
Bad behavior at Walt Disney World is, unfortunately, not a new occurrence. Whether it’s at Walt Disney World Resort or the Disneyland Resort, we’ve reported on instances of guests picking fights with fellow park-goers or being rude to cast members.
Not just that, there have been times when cast members have gone on record numerous times imploring guests to be less “selfish” and sharing the extent of how “damaging” guest behavior can be.
One former Disney cast member, Cyrus Explores, shared some “Cast Member Confessions” on TikTok wherein he talked about how guests once got drunk and created such a scare that the ride had to come to a complete stop.

The cast member shared a confession where a pair of drunk guests unbuckled their infant from the seat when they were on the attraction Dumbo the Flying Elephant, holding the child the same way Rafiki holds Simba. The attraction was 18 feet in the air at the time, and the drunk couple waited for their other drunk friends to take pictures of them doing it.
The cast members had to “emergency stop” the ride and then were arrested once they were outside park gates.
Guests in the comments were shocked at the confessions the former cast member shared. One fan shared, “People are out of their minds and wildly inappropriate.”
One other fan, Kim Bonnell Spencer, shared, “Those people are terrible.”
It certainly goes without saying this kind of behavior is unacceptable at Disney parks per Disney’s policies.
