A rush of water coupled with an “injurious wedgie,” caused severe lacerations that ripped her vaginal tissue enough that her intestines bulged out of her abdominal cavity. The lawsuit said that the “Humunga Kowabunga” slide in question allows participants to reach speeds approaching 40 miles per hour.

This high-profile 2024–2025 legal battle involves a wrongful death lawsuit filed by Jeffrey Piccolo after his wife, Dr. Kanokporn Tangsuan, died from a severe allergic reaction after dining at a restaurant in Disney Springs. The "intestines" or medical aspect of the case centers on the fact that despite the couple repeatedly informing the server of severe nut and dairy allergies, the food allegedly contained high levels of both, leading to fatal anaphylaxis. The case became a global viral sensation not just for the tragedy, but because Disney initially tried to block the lawsuit, arguing that Piccolo had waived his right to sue because he had signed up for a Disney+ free trial years prior, which included a mandatory arbitration clause for "all disputes" with the company. Facing immense public backlash for using streaming terms to avoid a wrongful death claim, Disney eventually dropped that specific defense in late 2024, allowing the case to proceed toward a jury trial in 2025–2026.
