Right now, a young boy is fighting for his life after being crushed by a boat in the Pirates of the Caribbean ride at Disneyland Paris. The boy somehow fell backwards out of the boat as it moved through a lagoon. The Disney ride injury lawyers at Denena Points, PC sadly note that the boy was hit by another boat and ended up trapped between a platform and the boat, which crushed his chest. The boy’s father jumped out of the boat and managed to free him, but the child was sent to a Paris children’s hospital in critical condition. A police investigation is in progress to determine the cause of the accident and if negligence by the park was a factor.
