Leg Work

‘IT’S not quite the search for the Loch Ness Monster, the lost continent of Atlantis or the wreck of the Titanic, but divers at Universal Studios theme park in Florida have a quest of their own – a false leg.

The prosthetic limb flew off Hawley Webb as he rode one of the 55mph Dueling Dragons rollercoaster rides in the Lost Continent section of the Islands of Adventure park, Orlando.

He immediately alerted staff, who decided that the leg must have fallen into a pond below the ride. Bur despite a team of divers being sent in to look for it, the leg has not yet been recovered. Universal Studios says it will replace the leg if divers can’t find it.’
