It would have been better if it was the TTH, at least that is already closed, watch their gonna close JC and trim back any tree that extends over the water, its gonna be a tragedy.

Aren't the Jungle Cruise boats covered? The wind must have really been blowing.

whoda thunk with all those wild animals that the ride's bark would be worse than its bite.

Is the tree limb OK ?

(Sorry, there doesn't seem to be an icon for a sick joke)

Wow, that's very unfortunate. Hope that guest is okay.

This sounds like another incident that couldn't have been prevented - reminds me of that tree that fell on several guests in Frontierland a few years back. Should be interesting to see if there's any investigation or if the Jungle Cruise closes - though I doubt it for something so minor.

And is it windy in Anaheim? Because it's perfectly calm here.

It's breaking news on KCAL 9 right now.

17 year old female. Transported to local hospital complaining of neck injury.

Yes it's very windy here in Anaheim.

The Jungle Cruise is currently closed.

I suppose. If they removed all the trees on the Jungle Cruise it would be safer.

[JeffYardDog]

Local news reporting:

17 year-old was hit by a Palm frond

Taken to local hospital complaining of a neck injury (pain)

Jungle Cruise is currently closed but rest of the park is open.

not sick.. usually i wait for page 2 to tell the jokes. now that we got the loop and is the limb ok... the thread is ripe for question.. will the person sue the limb for hurting themselves. (too soon?)
