Temporary wall falls on guests at Universal Orlando

Heavy winds cause construction wall to fall on walkway

Pictures and videos spreading on social media show the aftermath of the purported collapse of a temporary wall at Universal Orlando. In the clips shared, wooden framing is strewn about a walkway that stretches over a roadway.

Guests present during the incident report that the collapse happened during a thunderstorm with particularly heavy winds. A wall present on the walkway gave way, falling on top of guests and creating a chaotic scene. No injuries have been reported, and aftermath photos show Universal employees assessing the scene to determine what had occurred.

When asked by News 6 what caused the incident to occur, and if changes had been made since the event, a Universal representative responded, “we do not comment on pending claims.”
