When I worked at great adventure, we had a guest lose his prosthetic leg on Batman The ride (hanging coaster). Yeah, talk about a SG and a huge safety hazard.

:eek:

Although in the SGs defense, that's more like someone losing a shoe than like someone hauling glassware onto a roller coaster. In terms of everyday life, a well-fitted prosthetic is pretty solidly anchored and I don't know that most people wearing one would think it a hazard on a coaster.

I've seem condoms (still in the wrappers, thank you), false teeth, wigs, bras and assorted underwear, but the most amazing one I saw was a fanny pack which contained $17,000, passports, and cellphone that was left in a restroom.

Agreed and coming from the best source i know-me. ;) My prosthetic is suction based, assuming the SG's was as well, his may have been too loose.

I found underwear in the corner of a toilet cubicle. Definitely one of the most disgusting moments of my job. I just swept it into my dustpan and threw it away as fast as possible!!!

At Soarin' we had so many people drop items that just shatter in the pit once they hit the ground. Cameras, video cameras, phones, etc. Then there were always the ones that put their flip flops back on after the CM walks away...ugh. Then of course, they fall into the pit.

I have a friend who worked at the WDW Resorts at the housekeeping base. She receive a call from a Guest asking if we still had the suitcase he'd forgotten in his room when he checked out. She asked him when he checked out. He said ten months ago. Needless to say, we didn't have the suitcase anymore.

We got to the Pleasure Island area and the ride stopped. Then the lights went on. We were told to stay seated until the CM came by. When he did, he got us out of the car and told us to walk out of the ride. He said to take our time and take as many photos as we wanted. What a treat! We got to take pictures with the stand ups and props inside the ride.
Apparently, someone lost a very expensive watch in there, and the CMs had to do a walkthrough to look for it. Never found out if they found it. But I thought it was a great introduction to Disney Parks. Definitely memorable!
As a 12 yr attractions cast member, I am pretty sure that never happened. Disney 777 is hallucinating.
