The huge brawl that broke out at Florida’s DisneyWorld last week when a family tried to prevent a woman from joining her family in the queue led to arrests, a hospitalization and lifetime bans at the park, it has been revealed.
Further footage of the 10-person bust-up which saw punches being thrown and profanities being screamed at the children’s theme park, shows how both families were queueing for Mickey’s PhilharMagic.
A member of one family left to retrieve her phone from an electric scooter but when she returned to the line, another family – all in white shirts and red shorts – prevented her, pushing the young woman, according to WDWNT.
The family of the woman who returned to the queue has been banned from DisneyWorld for life, one member told the news outlet, while two members of the other family were allegedly arrested.
Several involved received cuts and bruises while one was taken to hospital in an ambulance with large lacerations on their chin.
The initial footage spread like wildfire on social media last week, with Disney cast members and fellow visitors trying to step in and intervene.

The guest, who wasn’t identified, also shared video of their perspective of the wild fracas
A member of one of the families in line for Mickey’s PhilharMagic left to retrieve her phone from an electric scooter.
Footage shows how the family of the woman who had tried to rejoin the queue said: ‘Listen, man, we don’t want trouble; we don’t appreciate you guys pushing my younger sister.’
That’s when things escalated to shouting and eventually the brawl that has since gone viral.
The brother of the girl who was pushed eventually started pushing back and the fisticuffs began to play out.
The new video footage shows two of Disney’s ‘cast members’ and several guests trying to stop the fighting.
Some reports suggested one group stole or damaged several personal items belonging to their opponents including mobile phones and designer clothes, though this could not be verified.
When they left the theater, the family of the girl who’d been pushed confronted the other group: ‘Listen, man, we don’t want trouble; we don’t appreciate you guys pushing my younger sister’ one of them said

Footage of the incident quickly set social media ablaze but was later removed from video sharing platform TikTok.
Shortened clips of the brawl have continued to circulate on Twitter and Facebook and show how the chaos left garbage and clothing strewn across the ground as scared families attempted to shield their kids from the mayhem.
Orange County Sheriffs, the Reedy Creek Fire Department, and paramedics were all called to the scene shortly after to aid in defusing the situation and treating wounds.
Incidents of mass violence at Disney parks have increased considerably since the COVID-19 pandemic, with the Florida resort reporting more than a half dozen reports this year alone.
