I had to post this when I saw it online today. I watched the video and I can't tell how hard it was but I can't imagine them doing that to a kid there (looks 15 years old or something). It kind of looks like a joke to me....what do you think?

It looks like a family trying to get money out of the big pockets of Disney.

I've watched that video about 3 dozen times today. What a total accident and a load of bull on the dads part. Plus the stories don't match and the cynic in me says 'who gave the tape to the media? who tapes their phone conversations? who ......" Dad's out for blood in the form of cash.

No sorry kid. Our house thinks you are at fault here. We think you were grabbing Tigger where you had no business grabbing him. Dad you sound like you are in it for something.

OMG! this is just ridiculous, people like this should be charged for "trying" making Tigger and Disney look bad.

My husband and I both thought it looked like the teen was trying to remove Tigger's head. Poor Tigger looked as if he was trying to maintain his balance. We watched this about 10 times today.

Some people. Ugh.

I totally agree with you all - it looks either like an accident, I think Tigger may have lost his balance and their arms are kind of tangled up or the kid was up to no good.

I just looked at the video, and man, did that parent take crappy video or what?? OR...were they shooting at the ground and upside down for a reason?? Like maybe Jr. was not behaving and harrassing Tigger?? Funny how the WHOLE story doesn't come out. And, were there any witnesses? You can't tell me there was NOBODY in line waiting (and no handler either??)...No witnesses willing to speak up for Tigger??

People are just crazy...always out for themselves. (BTW, not that you can go by looks alone, but Jr. looked like trouble to me anyway.)
