00:00Your comment was racist and it had nothing to do with you, you know, right?
00:03Welcome to WatchMojo.
00:05And today, we're counting down our picks for the most infamous times Karens.
00:10Those entitled rude and belligerent folk brought their dreadful attitudes to the happiest place
00:17on Earth, Disney theme parks.
00:19They say he changed prices, added bad language.
00:23Number 10.
00:25Photophyte.
00:26When it comes to tourist places, you might be standing in another group's way as they
00:31try to take a photo.
00:32It happens.
00:34Typically, the others will nicely ask you to move and you oblige.
00:38However, one family didn't do this at all.
00:41In a chaotic scene, you can see deputies on the ground arresting a man after a fight at
00:46Magic Kingdom.
00:48In 2023, one unnamed group, we'll call Karens, for obvious reasons, arrived at Walt Disney
00:55World's Magic Kingdom.
00:57They then stopped in front of the 100th anniversary sign, next to another unnamed family who were
01:02taking a photo.
01:03To take your kids to the most magical place in the world, and then they have to stand and
01:07watch other people fight over a photo, it's just ridiculous.
01:10When the family asked the Karens if they could move for the snap, an argument ensued, resulting
01:16in one Karens, punching one of the family members.
01:20A brawl erupted that was captured on camera.
01:23As a result, two of those involved were banned from the park.
01:27The sheriff's office says that victim is not pressing charges.
01:31Number 9.
01:32Mask assault.
01:33Disney parks already bring out the inner Karens out of some people, so throw in the COVID-19
01:39pandemic.
01:40When people's entitlement and selfishness over wearing masks were magnified, you have
01:46a horribly toxic mix.
01:48If you ask somebody nicely to do something, why would somebody else want to hit you or
01:54punch you out for that?
01:55Well, in 2020, that's what happened when Enrico Toro arrived at Walt Disney World's Epcot Center.
02:03After his family was asked to wear the proper coverings, they went back to their car to get
02:07them.
02:08However, upon returning to the park, the security guard realized one of the children didn't have
02:13a proper mask and blocked them from entering.
02:16Toro began insulting the guard, daring them to call the cops.
02:20When the guard reached for their phone, Toro struck the guard and threatened their life.
02:24The male struck him with an open hand across his head.
02:28Unsurprisingly, he was arrested for battery.
02:31We're going to get through this, but we can't get through it by beating up other people or
02:35attacking them.
02:36Number 8.
02:37Photo Bomb Brawl
02:38It's not just American Disney parks where Karen Havoc ensues.
02:43China, too, has a problem.
02:45In 2025, people were in line to use a photo booth at Shanghai Disneyland.
02:51According to witnesses, one couple decided they were too important to wait and cut in.
02:57However, when they took their photos, a family of three was in the background.
03:01The couple were livid that they weren't the main characters, and a brawl soon kicked off.
03:07As the men wrestled, the woman from the couple went to strike her family counterpart, only to
03:12connect with the child she was holding.
03:15Thankfully, beyond some bruises and scratches for the men, no one was seriously injured.
03:20Number 7.
03:27Ableism Karen
03:29Florida Man stories are usually pretty funny.
03:32Sadly, this one involving Brent George is not.
03:36A Florida man is taken away in cuffs at the most magical place on Earth.
03:39In 2024, he was drinking with a friend at Walt Disney World's Bellevue Lounge.
03:45After getting heavily intoxicated, he decided to approach a table of people and mock the
03:50woman with Down syndrome and in a wheelchair.
03:53When the woman's mother confronted George, he pushed her twice.
03:57And when he slapped another woman at the table...
03:59The girl's mother allegedly confronted George.
04:01He shoved the woman twice before slapping the woman's daughter-in-law in the face when
04:05she tried to calm the situation down.
04:07One of the men in the group then got involved, causing a fight to erupt, which, according
04:13to his mugshot, George likely lost, as another bystander dragged him out of the bar.
04:20After being charged with multiple counts of battery, George pleaded not guilty in court.
04:26You can't come back here, right?
04:28Okay.
04:28Disney doesn't want you back on property.
04:30Okay?
04:30Number 6.
04:31Insult Karen
04:32Sometimes kids have no filter.
04:35As such, this can mean they'll brutally insult you.
04:39However, no matter what, you can't do what Christy Crampton did in 2025.
04:45Airport police say they arrested her at the gate after the pilot requested for law enforcement.
04:50After enjoying Walt Disney World, she was on a plane to get back home.
04:55However, while the jet was still waiting to take off from Orlando-Sanford International
05:00airports, a child next to Crampton began insulting her weight, calling her Miss Piggy, among others,
05:06The Boy, who was also on the Disney vacation with Crampton and had an unknown relation to
05:13her, had allegedly been annoying the Karen throughout this trip.
05:16With all that pent-up rage consuming her, Crampton physically attacked The Boy.
05:22But police and witnesses say she went beyond typical disciplinary actions.
05:27This resulted in her being arrested at the airport and barred from contacting the child.
05:32The report says the FBI was notified because it happened inside an airport.
05:37A Seminole County judge granted the woman a $10,000 bond.
05:41Number 5.
05:42Disney employees unhinged revenge.
05:44No one likes being fired.
05:47It sucks.
05:48But there are ways of dealing with that that don't endanger many innocent people who had
05:52nothing to do with your dismissal.
05:55A former Disney employee was sentenced to three years in prison.
05:58It is for hacking into the company's servers.
06:02Unfortunately, this isn't something that Michael Schuer followed.
06:06In 2024, he was fired as Disney's menu production manager for misconduct.
06:11So, for revenge, Schuer hacked into the computer system to change the menus.
06:16Officials say he hacked into Disney's menu several times.
06:20As well as adding curse words and changing prices, he also edited allergen advice, potentially
06:26putting people's lives at risk.
06:29Thankfully, Disney realized what had happened and stopped the menus from shipping.
06:33In 2025, after pleading guilty, Schuer was sentenced to three years in jail and had to pay nearly
06:40$690,000 in restitution.
06:44She were pleaded guilty to one count of computer fraud and aggravated identity theft.
06:49Number 4.
06:50Skyliner Karen
06:51Understandably, it's not fun waiting around when a ride breaks down when you desperately
06:57want to experience it.
06:58However, it's probably not a good idea to complain loudly in the queue with language that can turn
07:04the floor to air blue as children stand around.
07:08I'm sure you've said what's in front of your head.
07:10No, I never.
07:11Yet in 2023, one woman decided this was the perfect choice after Walt Disney World's Skyliner
07:18broke for an hour.
07:20Sitting on a scooter, she was issuing one swear word after another out loud, causing other guests
07:26to admonish her behavior.
07:28Say what you started.
07:29No, I didn't start it, she started it.
07:33Did she take their criticism on board?
07:35Kinda.
07:36Skyliner Karen swore more at them and flipped the bird before she continued sulking at her
07:41new title of being a Disney villain.
07:50Number 3.
07:51Language police
07:52It's strange how a Karen hearing a language that they don't speak can cause them to exhibit
07:58racism.
07:59Yet, that's what happened to Eva Ramirez in 2023.
08:04It all started with a disagreement over a stall in a woman's bathroom at the theme park
08:08last week.
08:09After going to Disneyland, California to celebrate her son's birthday, they went to use a nearby
08:15bathroom.
08:15As we were walking into the restrooms, the stalls were empty, and so I went ahead and used
08:22a big stall with my child.
08:23However, an argument began when Ramirez used an accessible stall for her young son.
08:28This sparked a Karen, dressed in all Mickey Mouse gear, to complain that Ramirez was speaking
08:34Spanish to her son.
08:35Eva says the racist tirade went on for about a minute, but when her son started to cry,
08:39that's when she knew it had gone too far, so she started recording.
08:43After claiming that since they're in America, she should speak English, the Karen then flat
08:48outstated she hated Mexicans.
08:51Yikes.
08:52In the aftermath of the footage going viral, a group of activists protested outside the
08:57Karen's apparent house, resulting in their arrests.
09:01Number 2.
09:02Karen's Spot
09:03The Disney parades at their parks are meant to be fun and memorable, and for one teenager,
09:08only the latter is applicable after she met Martha Zapata-Echeverry at Florida's Walt Disney
09:14World in 2025.
09:1551-year-old Martha Zapata-Echeverry is accused of child abuse.
09:20The teen was in position when Zapata-Echeverry allegedly touched her to make space in the
09:25crowd, seemingly to get herself a better view of the event by going closer to the front.
09:30When the teen reacted uncomfortably and refused, Zapata-Echeverry apparently grabbed her and
09:36pulled her to the side, leaving bruises and scratch marks from Zapata-Echeverry's nails
09:41on her arm.
09:42However, when investigators asked her about nail marks left behind on the victim, her
09:47explanation was unclear.
09:48Due to her actions, Zapata-Echeverry was arrested for the attack and charged.
09:53She was also banned from visiting other Disney sites as she looked to go home to Spain.
09:59And according to court records, the suspect entered a written plea of not guilty.

10:21Fury Family
10:22All families argue from time to time, but not many get violent in a public place.
10:28Yet that's what's happened with one group in 2019.
10:32It's intolerable to conduct.
10:34Of course, it's an interesting story, I suppose, and sensational because it happened in Disneyland.
10:39While at California's Disneyland, Andrea Robinson was seen spitting on her brother Avery, causing
10:44him to attack her and her husband, Damon Petrie, as others got involved, and a mass brawl erupted.
10:51Eventually, security arrived to gain some order.
10:54You can see they're distraught.
10:56However, Avery wasn't done, as after being escorted from the park, he allegedly tried to
11:03hit an employee with his vehicle as he threatened Andrea and Damon's lives.
11:07And he did find out today his bail is $1 million because, the judge says, of his past criminal
11:14history.
11:15In 2020, Avery was sentenced to six months in jail.
11:19Andrea and Damon, who received similar charges, failed to show up in courts, and arrest warrants
11:25were issued for them.
11:26Which fandom do you think attracts the most Karens, and why?
11:31Let us know below.
11:32This is not tolerated wherever you are.
11:44There we go.
11:45See you at Tampa.
11:47Good luck.
11:47Good luck.
