A 70-year-old woman died after riding the Revenge of the Mummy rollercoaster at Universal Orlando on November 25, 2025, according to a Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services theme park injury report released Thursday.

The woman became unresponsive during the high-speed indoor ride and later died in hospital. The report does not provide her name.

Revenge of the Mummy is an indoor rollercoaster based on The Mummy films. It reaches speeds of up to 45mph and moves riders back and forth in darkness while mummies appear. The ride has been linked to 21 incidents since opening in 2004, including nausea, dizziness, seizures and a fractured vertebra.
