VIDEO: Guest holding baby yells at cast member as Pirates of the Caribbean breaks down at Christmas

The video was shared on TikTok by user theWorking.mom, who wrote in text on the screen, “When the Pirates of the Caribbean ride breaks down on Christmas”. The person filming is in a boat near the end of Pirates of the Caribbean at the Magic Kingdom. A cast member stands on the edge of a platform next to the boat and pauses as an announcement ends. The cast member seems to ask, “Is everyone okay?” A few guests shout, “No!” The camera pans to show guests in several boats backed up.

A guest stands holding a small child in her arms (theWorking.mom added a heart to the video to hide the child’s face). The guest starts pointing and shouting at the employee. It’s hard to hear everything he says over the sound of other guests and the tour, but we could tell, “You better get me out of here.” At one point he shows the cast member something on his phone. The cast member appears to ask the guest to sit down. Standing on the Pirates of the Caribbean boats can be dangerous, especially if the ride is expected to start moving.

The comments are overwhelmingly supportive of the cast. Commenting, TheWorking.mom said the guest “ended up walking behind the support, then the ride started working and we found him at the exit yelling at CM”.

Tensions are often high during the holidays, especially given the long wait times at Disney Parks, but listening to cast members during a ride stop is imperative to safety and an efficient exit.
