Disney Tram Crashes After Goofy Turn

Posted May 3rd 2008 5:59PM by TMZ Staff

It really wasn't a magic day at the Magic Kingdom yesterday: First, there was the suicide that TMZ reported, and -- on a completely different note -- a parking lot tram car slammed into a sign, shutting down tram service for a little while.

We've confirmed that an accident did occur, but being fairly low-speed, injuries to people were minor, though the car's lights were torn out. According to one poster on Disney nerd emporium Micechat.com, the tram may have taken an overly wide turn.

We called the Mouse House for comment, but haven't heard back. Anaheim PD says they weren't called to the scene.

7. You're the moron, Bea. The original Disneyland is in Anaheim, California. Disney World is in Orlando.

9. lol hey you beat me to the response about where the magic kingdom is! Lol hmm about two blocks away from my home in Anaheim California! I find it amusing that tmz has covered it both days. There must be something interesting going on with celebrities at the park if tmz is there! You dont actually hear about Disneyland accidents or in yesterdays case ... suicide. Disney is normally tight lipped about anything that goes on. But for the money they pay those employees Im surprised more accidents dont happen. Here in Anaheim you basically have to make 40k a year to live in a crappy neighborhood... And Disneyland doesnt pay the employees anywhere near that much but it requires them to only have one job and be available all hours or they wont hire you. Whats even sadder is that Disney goes out of its way to fight any low income housing in Anaheim because it wants the area to stay looking high class.

12. Sorry to burst your bubble people in California, but the Magic Kingdom refers exclusively to Disney World, not Disneyland. The park itself in Disney World is called "Magic Kingdom Park". Type it into Google and see for yourself.
