Long-standing rumors about Disney World are now receiving surprising confirmation from within: a former employee at the Florida park claims that an unofficial protocol exists whereby deaths cannot be declared within the park grounds.
According to him, "no one has ever or will ever die at a Disney park or property." Even in severe emergency cases, paramedics continue resuscitation efforts until they reach outside the complex grounds in order to preserve the image of 'the happiest place on earth'.
Tom Cruz, a former park employee (who has no connection to the famous actor), explained in a TikTok video how he witnessed a visitor collapse while waiting in line for an attraction. According to him, resuscitation efforts continued for a long time despite it being clear they were not bearing fruit. "I said, man, this guy is dead, why are they still trying to bring him back?" Cruz recounted, 'And the manager said, "No one dies at Disney World until they're off the property and then they're declared dead.'"
Thus, despite the resuscitation attempts being unsuccessful, the paramedics continued the procedures for an extended time, just to ensure that the death declaration would not occur within the park grounds.

Cruz added that this is part of a longstanding policy, designed to preserve the experience of millions of visitors each year, and to protect Disney's unique image as a tourist destination where dreams come true – and where disasters do not occur.
The video went viral on social media and sparked heated debate: Is this a legitimate reputation management strategy, or a cynical concealment of unpleasant realities behind the scenes of "the happiest place on earth?"
It should be noted that despite the rumors on social media, rare cases of death at Disney parks have been reported in the past due to accidents, medical conditions, or equipment malfunctions.
