Kidney Stone Passes at Disney World

A New Jersey woman suffering from kidney stones passed one of the calcified pellets by riding a rollercoaster at Disney World, following an unusual remedy she found online. The Big Thunder Mountain Railroad at Disney World in Orlando, Florida, is reportedly one of the most effective and pain-free ways to pass kidney stones, according to a 2016 Michigan State study. Professor emeritus David Wartinger, who led the experiment, found that the extreme G-force pins the stone in the kidney, preventing it from passing.
