State quarterly report notes 70-year-old woman died after riding Universal Orlando’s Revenge of the Mummy coaster

Incident recorded in Florida’s latest theme-park medical reporting cycle

A 70-year-old woman died after becoming unresponsive while on the Revenge of the Mummy roller coaster at Universal Orlando Resort, as documented in the state’s most recent quarterly theme-park incident report covering October through December 2025.

The report entry states the incident occurred on November 25, 2025. The woman was transported to a hospital and later died. Her name and specific cause of death were not included in the report.

What the state report contains — and what it does not

Florida’s quarterly theme-park incident summaries are compiled from information provided by certain large “exempt” facilities that operate under a long-standing reporting arrangement. The state’s role in this process is primarily to compile and publish the information received at the time of the incident, rather than to provide investigative findings or medical determinations.

The state compilation reflects only the initial information reported at the time of an incident and generally does not include later medical updates, detailed circumstances, or a final cause of death.

As a result, the quarterly entry does not establish whether the death was connected to a medical condition, a ride-related injury, or other factors. It also does not describe what occurred during the ride beyond noting that the guest became unresponsive.

Broader context: how Florida regulates and tracks ride safety

Florida assigns statewide oversight of amusement-ride inspections to the Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, but state law provides an exemption for permanent facilities with at least 1,000 full-time employees that maintain full-time, in-house safety inspectors. Those facilities file inspection affidavits and participate in a structured reporting process for significant medical incidents.

Separately, Florida’s ride-safety framework has continued to evolve in recent years, including changes passed in 2023 that updated requirements for certain amusement rides first operated in the state after a specified date and adjusted accident-reporting and enforcement provisions.

Ride details and recent incident totals

Revenge of the Mummy is an indoor roller coaster at Universal Studios Florida. The attraction is described by the operator as a high-speed ride that does not invert riders. The quarterly report lists this fatality among multiple medical incidents recorded at Central Florida’s major theme parks during the October–December 2025 period, including several non-fatal episodes involving symptoms such as chest pain, loss of consciousness, nausea, and stroke-like complaints.

• The November 25, 2025 incident is recorded as a medical emergency followed by a death at the hospital.
• Additional entries in the same reporting cycle include medical incidents across other attractions at major parks.

What remains unknown

As of the report’s publication, the publicly available summary does not identify the guest, provide a cause of death, or indicate whether any governmental investigation determined a ride-related mechanical issue. Without those details, the quarterly entry functions as a record of a serious medical incident and subsequent death following a ride, rather than a finding about causation.
