A five-year-old boy, Ernesto Tagle III, suffered cardiac arrest during the rollercoaster ride of Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind at Walt Disney World’s Epcot.
As Christine Tagle took her son to ride the rollercoaster, after 30 seconds into the ride, the mother saw that her son “wasn’t breathing and started going into seizures.”
“I was screaming, hitting him, and saying something’s wrong,” the mother shared with Fox 35 Orlando.
After the ride was finished, she performed CPR immediately. Then a Disney cast brought an AED, and another couple wo was a nurse and an EMT helped to Christine’s son, Ernesto.
“We just feel so lucky this didn’t rob us of his smile and energy,” terrified mother shared.
“Not all hero’s wear capes is so true in this story. Thank you for the prayers, positive vibes, thoughts, and encouraging words,” the family shared their gratitude.
“Get CPR certified or get a refresher course. You never know when you’ll need it.”
