The Disney Cast Members took the necessary security measures by evacuating the general public while police where called to the scene. Dogs didn’t find any explosives but the man was taken in custody. This behavior will haunt him for life as he will most probably be banned for life, will now have a criminal record and could be fined for up to 30.000 Euro according to some news sites. This hoax happened this weekend, less then 24 hours after what had happened in Oslo, making it even more tasteless joke as it already is. The park re-opened about 1 hour after the event." <a href="http://www.dlp.info/News/2011/07/disneyland-paris-bomb-hoax/" target="_blank">http://www.dlp.info/News/2011/...mb-hoax/</a> It's unbelievable how stupid some people are.

A few years ago, I have seen WDS being evacuated during a major storm. It was at a time when there were construction fences everywhere (for Crush, Tower & Hollywood Blvd) and it was feared to cut be ripped apart by the winds and hurt guests. Visitors were evacuated via the park's main gate, but also backstage (a good deal of folks marched the backstage road from Animation Courtyard to Main Street)...

I feel very sorry for all the other DLP guests who had their day interrupted because of this incident.
