Brutal.
Yeah, most cast members have at least one harrowing story. I had a man try and commit suicide in my section during guest control so had to create a perimeter for paramedics. We also had a bomb scare because one of the ODV kids created a dry ice bomb and put it in a trash can. Hecking wild.
I remember that dry ice bomb. I was friends with a security manager then and heard the kid drew terrorism charges for that. Which is a shame because it was really just idiocy and not thinking rather than anything malicious.
I only had a couple fights and one heart attack outside the general normal chaos and minor injuries that comes with the public. But I was in stores on main street, so it wasn't so harrowing.
As for the sailing ship Columbia, iirc it was manager who took over when there was a shortage of cast members to keep the attraction open.
Oh yeah, the heart attacks. I was in DCA (attractions), but worked with people who were at DLR before I was born haha. A lead I was friends with had to manage a heart attack situation in a bathroom next to his attraction. Life (and death) happens ¯\(ツ)/¯
Oh yea. It was kind of funny, I was working and it was right after they changed to split 911. It used to go to the local security office and then they'd call 911 if it required more than Disney resources. After a lawsuit they made it work like you expect to go direct to emergency services.
I had a cast member run into my store and ask if a heart attack goes to the local security office to send a nurse or 911 to send an ambulance. I had him call 911 to get the ambulance and I went to get the AED and head to the guest. It always kind of made me chuckle that someone would have that doubt on whether or not 911 was the right thing to call for a heart attack.
