Yet another social media content creator has paid the ultimate Disney price for concocting a ridiculous plan that involved him hiring a bodyguard to harass Disney Park guests.

Social media platforms have undeniably altered the Disney experience for Disney fans and Disney Parks guests. With the ability to easily capture and share moments from one’s experiences at iconic destinations such as the Walt Disney World Resort or Disneyland Resort, one could imagine that individuals would strive to showcase only the most impeccable conduct during their visits.

The hope would be that the prevalence of social media introduces a new layer of accountability, where guests may feel compelled to portray themselves in a positive light while exploring the wonders of these magical realms.

However, in reality, what it often does is encourage bad behavior in guests who are looking to gain attention online for their antics at the parks.

This kind of unfortunate behavior not only puts the guests themselves at risk but also creates challenges for Disney officials and Disney security officers who are tasked with maintaining order and ensuring everyone’s safety.

In the past, we’ve reported on a guest who chose to jump backward into a fountain, a woman who swam topless at Disney World, and even guests who picked fights with fellow fans in line for an attraction. While it’s not always known whether those guests faced any consequences for their actions, Disney has been known to ban guests permanently for bad behavior.

Most recently, a teenager has potentially received a lifetime ban for hiring a bodyguard to go to Disney so that he could “harass people in the parks without getting his a$$ kicked.”

In a video shared online by the boy himself, Jack Doherty, we see him getting written up by Disney security officers, while Doherty doesn’t seem to show any remorse for his actions.

Of course, while some might be sympathetic to a child like Jack Doherty being banned, many in the comments were fed up with his antics and made their feelings on the matter clear.

Well-reputed Disney insider Doctor Disney commented, “No big loss to Disney or anyone who visits Disney. This is actually great for all those involved. Next hope is you get banned from social media.”

Another fan agreed, “W to those cops. They’re keeping the trash out.” 

Disney handle Mickey Central wrote, “I see this as nothing but an absolute win.” 

Nevertheless, this teenager and YouTube being banned from Disney sheds light on a concerning trend within the park’s fan community.

While Disney’s strict security measures aim to uphold a safe and family-friendly environment, the draw to seek fame by going viral online through “rebellious” actions often overshadows guests’ respect for the park’s rules and regulations.

It goes without saying that adhering to Disney’s rules is of utmost importance and this type of nonsensical behavior—especially when its disruptive to other park guests—is absolutely unacceptable.
