Mysterious Drone Crashes at Disney Park
An unexplained drone has surprisingly crashed at “The Happiest Place on Earth,” leaving Disney fans uneasy about the mysterious Disney Park occurrence.
Disneyland Resort, located in Anaheim, California, is a popular theme park and Resort destination that attracts millions of visitors each year. The Resort includes two theme parks, Disneyland Park and Disney California Adventure Park, as well as hotels, restaurants, and other entertainment offerings. Disneyland Resort is owned and operated by The Walt Disney Company, one of the largest media and entertainment conglomerates in the world.
It’s no secret that Disneyland Resort has strict policies regarding the use of drones on its property. According to their website, drones are not permitted to be flown on or over the Resort property for any reason, including recreation or commercial purposes.
Violators of the rule may be subject to prosecution, as the use of a drone poses a safety risk to Guests and Cast Members, as well as potentially causing damage to property.
A viral video is taking social media by storm, as a drone was spotted hovering over Frontieland at Disneyland Park. The surrounding Disney Park Guests additionally noted the drone crashed, as shown in the video below posted by Donovan Sanford (@donovandoesdisney):
If you witness a drone at Disneyland Resort, it is advised you report it to a Cast Member or security personnel immediately. They will be able to investigate the incident and take appropriate action to ensure the safety of everyone in the area. It appears protocol was followed, as Cast Members are investigating the drone, as seen in the video above.
At this time, Disney has yet to release information regarding the crashed drone. It’s important to remember that flying a drone in a restricted area can have serious consequences, and it’s always best to follow the rules and regulations set by the property owner or governing authority to ensure the safety of all involved.
