A guest posted a video of themselves sticking their feet into Splash Mountain’s river at Disneyland while the ride was moving. As the charismatic voice in the loading dock says, guests should keep their hands, arms, feet, and legs inside the vehicle at all times. Otherwise, you could be injured (or worse — kicked out of the park permanently).
As if the action itself was not enough, the guest later posted a video of the deed to TikTok on May 25. He jokingly uses a “dog barking” audio to highlight the fact that he is entirely barefoot.
People in the comments are split between approving this chaotic action and condemning it entirely. But one thing is for sure — this was incredibly dangerous.
It’s easy to fall into a false sense of security at Disney Parks. However, there is a good reason why those warnings are repeated before every ride. Guests can lose an appendage, be dragged under the vehicle, or have their feet crushed by the ride vehicle. When in doubt, remember to follow all posted rules and Cast Member instructions.

If the boat slammed again the side of the flume you could very well lose a foot this way
And this is why wdw should be commended for having all the signs warnings pa announcements and cm announcements! Instead of complaints lately even the whole cosmic rewind… sure if he got hurt he sue wdw when clearly all these people need to follow rules or be kicked out its not wdw they warned you and your not willing to follow good luck with that!
Let’s hope this doesn’t become a copied behavior.
I know vacations cost an arm and a leg these days but……..
The idiot should have been thrown out of Disney Park forever. He could have caused the boat to turn over and injuries to the other people. What the hell was he suppose to achieve from doing that? Just an idiot. Disney parks are jumping thru hoops to trying to succeed to run for the public.
Without reading the article, I’m gonna take a wild guess that it was for a TikTok video…
Why are we giving this idiot more publicity?
This is not news and nobody cares
These comments are always on the most-read stories, and from someone who read it, which just makes me giggle.
Idiot
This person deserves to be kicked out of Disney indefinitely. He is not a child and showed irresponsible behavior and horrible role modeling for younger kids and could have caused irreparable damage to others. A strong message needs to be made clear that this kind of behavior will not be tolerated.
Folks like this should be banned with no questions asked. This is why we can’t have good things because of dummies like this “kid.” Rules are there, but they are too busy thinking about themselves and not others around them. Or being glued onto their phones…
The water could be contaminated with life threatening bacteria.
funny thing is if it is hot outside i feel you for putting your foot in the water also why
