MEDICAL CONDITION
I understand that the Attractions may place unusual stresses on the body.

Women who are pregnant or suspect they are pregnant, and persons who have
consumed alcohol, are not recommended to engage in the Attractions. I have been advised to consult with my medical practitioner if I have any concern about my medical condition or fitness to engage in the Attractions.
VIRTUAL REALITY
Virtual reality experiences can be extremely realistic, creating unprecedented levels of emotions. For example, you can be scared, made to feel unsafe, unsure of your footings, or bump into things. Other environments can help you relax and unwind. We recommend you start with more gentle experiences until you have become more familiar with the new world. VR applications have information listed that will help you choose the experiences that best suit you.
Some VR applications (software programs) allow for interaction including audio and gestures. Inappropriate behavior and verbal comments can be encountered in this environment, which cannot be controlled. Some users of VR can be easily shocked or surprised, which can result in people shouting expletives. We ask that all participants respect others while in the VR Arena. Anyone exhibiting inappropriate behavior will be asked to leave the Arena.
