A 70-year-old woman died after riding the Revenge of the Mummy roller coaster at Universal Orlando theme park in Florida last year, according to newly released state records.
The unidentified thrill-seeker became unresponsive after riding the high-speed indoor attraction — which can reach speeds of up to 45 mph — on Nov. 25, 2025, the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services cited in a quarterly report released Thursday.
The woman was rushed to the hospital and later died.
Her cause of death was not included in the report, which detailed eight additional cases of guests suffering injuries or other medical episodes between October and December at Universal.
The report also included six health-related incidents during the same time period at Walt Disney World. No incidents were recorded at other popular Florida parks, including SeaWorld, Busch Gardens, or Legoland, during that time, the data shows.
There have been 21 incidents reported on the Revenge of the Mummy ride since it opened in 2024, with complaints including nausea, dizziness, a seizure and a fractured vertebra, KTLA5 reported.
The eerily lit indoor coaster, inspired by “The Mummy” films, races riders through nearly 2,200 feet of tomb-themed scenery, fire effects, and haunting projections in about three minutes.
Universal said “we do not comment on pending claims,” in a statement to The Post.
The woman’s tragic death happened two months after Kevin Rodriguez Zavala, 32, became unresponsive while riding the Stardust Racers roller coaster at Universal’s Epic Universe and died on Sept 17, 2025.
His death was ruled an accident from blunt impact injuries.
