Winnie The Pooh Attack, Disneyland Tokyo

In an incident that was captured on video, Winnie the Pooh collapsed after being attacked by an adult man at Shanghai Disneyland. Character attendants swiped the Disney Park guest’s hand away, and he laughed as the Disney character performer fell to the ground.

Character performers are specially trained cast members who bring the magic of movies and television to life at the Disney theme parks. “Face” character performers portray speaking characters, like Peter Pan or your favorite Disney Princess and must resemble their on-stage counterparts.

“Fur” character performers play silent roles like Mickey Mouse or Donald Duck and must fit the height and weight specifications for their costumes.
