Deaths at Disney Because of NO AED's (defibrillators).

No AED's at disney can't help hurting people!

Published on August 16, 2006 By jules123 In Welcome

I know someone who's son died at Walt Disney World, there was no AED's available and they acted like the keystone cops when the son was dying, but no AED was available and it could have saved him! Tell me anything you guys think about this! Do you know anyone who was hurt or died there too? Should they care enough about the people who go through the happiest place on earth gates, that they keep things available at every ride so that if someone has an unknown problem they can help them? Of course I think so.. what do you guys think?

I am certainly for AED's. I have one not more than 50 feet from my office. I am not only trained how to use this device but also in CPR. (I have to be recertified every year) Would I trust the cast member at Disney to use this device properly? Not on your life.

Sure it is designed to only deliver a shock when necessary. How is a kid supposed to be able to tell when it's necessary? Would you trust that kid to follow the voice prompts and pictures? Me- No!

On top of all of that these devices are expensive. To put one of these devices in reach of anywhere it might be necessary would be very costly because Disney is a big place.

I like extreme rides. I have been on mission space and it takes an extreme toll on your body. The signs are clear that you should be in good physical shape to get on the ride. Hell, I was scared after passing all of the warnings. It, however, was a great experience for me because I did exactly what they said to do. This is the only thrill ride out there that comes with barf bags.

You refer to the employees as keystone cops. Do you really want to trust your life to this sort of person? I want a certified person or professional working on me. And, if the sign on the ride says you shouldn't do this if... pay attention.

So you know, my nephew is 8. He stood outside while I rode Mission Space. As much as he wanted to get on it, after riding it, I wouldn't let him. It's a strange concept to most people, but it's called personal responsibility. I love Disney. I think it is the most magical place on earth. When it comes to matters of my safetyor that of my family, I have to always be the responsible party.
