On May 15, 1964, 15-year-old Mark Lynn Maples of Long Beach became Disneyland’s first recorded person to pass away on the property after standing up during the Matterhorn Bobsleds ride and suffering a head injury. Investigators ruled his passing accidental, concluding it resulted from his actions rather than a ride malfunction. #disneyland #disneylandcalifornia #disney #disneylandresort #disneyparks | The Scarecast

After becoming a hit at the 1964 New York World’s Fair, the ride moved to Disneyland, and opened on May 28, 1966. 🏰😃 #disneyland #1960s #itsasmallworld #waltdisney #classic #backintheday #throwback | Days Gone Disney
