A Mother of Long Island is demanding from Disney for $ 2 million, claiming that she was permanently marked by a “gigantic” wave in the complex Typhoon lagoon.
Kimberly’s annual family trip to the happiest place on Earth became a horror show after the wave “hit her” while grabbing his 3 -year -old daughter of a water slide in the magic kingdom of the Skildren
The 45 -year -old mother was “violently beaten by a sudden and forceful wave,” according to her demand from the Federal Court of Brooklyn.
“It was so powerful that I was dragging us below the water for several feet,” Panetta told the post of the April 2022 incident. “I thank God that I had the feeling of pushing her up while they dragged me. I knew that if she were the one who was dragged, she would have bones everywhere.”
The wave “hit her from the side so hard, hit her and her body slid through the cement or gun, causing serious” eruption “or scratches that were severe and deep,” according to judicial documents.
“I felt pain immediately and looked down and there was blood,” he recalled. “You think you are in the happiest place on earth and in the safest place, but it’s like being dragged on concrete, it’s very hard.”
He left his two children, after 3 and 7 years, in shock, he added.
“They were mortified, they simply could not believe my legs and courses, when they see that the blood came out of their mother, their eyes were like dishes.”
Both Panetta and her husband lawyer Frank said the little daughter could have been seriously injured if it weren’t for Kimberly’s fast thought.
“She would have been definitely injured with bones if my wife had not been a hero and commissioned the worst part of the injury,” said Frank Panetta, who said Kimberly slid through the concrete “for 15 or 20 feet.”
Before the trip, Panetta was “a young slender, [who] He had no scars or marks on his legs. “
But Dix Hills’s wife is now “healing and conscious of herself” and “keeps the legs covered and must tolerate that he warms up and uncomfortable as a result,” says the litigation.
Disney should not have let those “powerful waves.”
His family’s holidays were a nightmare after he was injured.
The trip “was ruined and caught by applying bandages, ointments and creams and was forced to avoid swimming and enjoying the planned visits to the parks,” he said in the legal presentation.
The bloody wounds made walking difficult and left their “throbbing” leg in the middle of the night while ruining the rest of the annual Disney trip of the family.
“We had all these plans and we had to cancel everything. I could go to the pool where we stayed, I had to stay inside. Everything was completely ruined,” said the housewife.
Disney offered nothing more than a miserable credit of $ 250, said Frank Panetta.
It is not the first time that Disney fans claim an injury to Typhoon Lagoon, one of the two aquatic parks in Disney World in Florida with almost a different boxes.
A Florida woman lost her conscience and was coughing blood after mounting the Tobogán de Humunga Kowabunga in the aquatic park in May, she alleged in a lawsuit.
The slide sends 214 feet to the passengers in a nearby vertical drop.
Laura Reyes-Merino, then 25 years old, was found unconscious at the bottom of the water slide by her fiance and her mother, and there were no life lifeguards, she said.
Another woman said she was injured on the same slide in 2019, when the force of water created a painful wedge and that “water looks violently forced inside it,” according to reports.
