Some used it to take a few shots at incoming Disney CEO Bob Chapek (who is known for his cheapness by Disney Parks fans)…

CM: Mr. Chapek, one of the Jungle Cruise boats sank today with guests aboard. Isn't it about time we ordered new boats for safety?

Maybe Disney can start upcharging for a private VIP Tour of the Backside of Water?

According to WESH 2, a Disney spokesperson said the park immediately called the Reedy Creek Fire Department to respond.

“A boat took on some water. Everyone got out of the boat safely,” Disney claimed.

No park attendees were reportedly injured.

More on this story as it develops.
