Last month, a 9-year-old boy was found unresponsive at Universal Orlando’s water park, Volcano Bay. According to the injury report, the boy was on the Kala and Tai Nui Serpentine Body Slides which is at the top of the iconic volcano. The ride drops down through the volcano where riders slide down through drop doors into enclosed tunnel slides and splashing down into a splash pool.
There has been no further information given about the incident. The injury reports only have to include the person’s sex, age, the ride name, the date the incident occurred and limited details what happened.
Tom Schroder, Universal spokesman said the child was released from the hospital the following day.
