The dark truth behind the Disney World lockdown

The world of its theme parks Disney in the eyes of young and old alike, it looks magical. It is the place where fairy tales take on flesh and blood, turning the moments spent here into a real life experience. Or maybe not; At least, not in 2018 when a scary incident took place for all visitors, but also the employees of the park in Florida, forcing those in charge to proceed with a lockdown, long before the pandemic and the term lockdown enter our daily lives.

What happened at Disney World?

It was May 2018, then, when a visitor to the park after consuming a sufficient amount of alcohol began to deviate and harass and intimidate the other visitors, eventually leading to a lockdown of the resort for the public.

For some time, as reported by grunge.com, there was a trend on YouTube where youtubers attempted so-called “social experiments” in which they would record the reactions of those present in a fabricated situation, in order to make some social or political “commentary”. . In May 2018, a YouTuber from Arizona, Dillon Burch, had the same idea.

After drinking several drinks, he began to intimidate visitors to the Contemporary Resort by telling them that there was a sniper (when in fact he was not) in the park and that they had to evacuate the area. To his credit, he would later reveal to them that he was joking and that he wanted to record their reactions to “a school project”.

Despite its full disclosure, however, the entire resort was put on total lockdown while authorities were investigating the case. Drunk Burch was found hiding in the bushes and revealed to police that he was trying to shoot an “experiment” for his channel in YouTube. In the end, Burch did not object to the allegations of intoxication and disturbance, and what he gained from his “experiment” was a lifelong ban on Disney entering its parks.
