Disneyland Paris cleaner dies after accident

A cleaner at Disneyland Paris has died after falling into the water while working on an attraction.

Police say a preliminary investigation suggests the 53-year-old man was cleaning the It's a Small World ride when he fell and became trapped under a boat.

He was rescued and taken by helicopter to a hospital where he later died.

The man was employed by a subcontracting firm. An inquiry into the cause of the accident is under way.

Disneyland Paris in Marne-la-Vallee, east of the French capital, is one of the biggest tourist attractions in Europe.

This is most unfortunate. I always cringe at the thought of someone dying in the happiest place on earth. I wish the best for the gentleman's family.

This is terrible! Isn't the water only like 2 feet deep?

Yeah, but If you get stuck under a boat, you have no way up...

I'm curious when this happened, because if it was after hours why would the ride still be running?

If he was caught under a boat it wouldn't matter. It does seem like it was just a very unfortunate accident. My heart goes out to his family...
