I need to know how many people usually die there per month, I don't know if this is notable or not. They have a huge footfall I assume and with so many people there's bound to be deaths?

In October, several news outlets reported that only 68 known deaths had occurred in Disney World since 1971. 68 deaths in 648 months is about 0.1 deaths per month.

(Supposedly) They wait to declare you dead off site, to keep the numbers low. So you didn't die AT disney, you had a heart attack and died at the nearest hospital.

I know someone who drove transport EMT for awhile, and I can tell you places are really weird about where you die. More than once places tried to get them to transport dying people (and once tried to trick them into taking a dead body), and places would refuse to take a non-stable person in but would instead work on them in the truck or litterally outside the hospital. I guess lawsuits are more of a factor than I realize? Said they were never told to try to hide deaths so

Ok now that number just sounds low? Sus? What are they doing to make it so low? Tens of millions of people visit this place per year and you're telling me in 54 years only 68 have died?

They take you off-site for one thing and security is pretty tight over there for another.

Ohhh that makes sense they're pretending the important part didn't happen at Disney.
Hospitals must be the most dangerous place in the world, it's where all the deaths happen!

Edit: considering the circumstances of a couple of the deaths I feel like my joke may have been in poor taste
Wild that there have been this many this close though. Generally they want you the fuck off their property if you’re going to kick the bucket so headlines like this don’t happen.
