But apparently, this has not stopped people from wanting their family members to spend a few fleeting seconds in Mickey Mouse’s home before being sucked into a vacuum. The Wall Street Journal talked to people who’ve smuggled ashes to the park. They said it wasn’t easy to sneak their family members’ remains past security, but they’re willing so long as their grandfather or son or other loved one gets to spend more time in the place that gave them joy. One woman did feel slightly guilty; she only dropped a tiny amount of her mother’s ashes in the It’s a Small World ride because she didn’t want to clog the filter. Which makes sense, because once the code is called, the entire ride is shut down for cleanup, and all those people standing in line for hours groan in frustration.

Lest you think people have stopped doing this sweet but also mechanically terrible act, of course not. The Los Angeles Times reported police were called on a woman seen scattering ashes in the Pirates of the Caribbean ride in Disneyland in 2019. The police declined to pursue the case due to a lack of a clear description of the woman.

So, if you have a loved one who is obsessed with Disney, think really hard if you want to hear the words “HEPA cleanup” right after you sweetly say goodbye to them, as a kid who’s been patiently waiting to go on the ride cries. Do you want that on your conscience?
