I have been on the ride and wouldn't call it extreme. As a matter of fact, I felt the warnings were extreme and caused more fear than the actual excitement of the ride. But, Disney has to CYA.

Some people have different reactions to physical strains on the body. For example, if you have a sezure disorder, you should not be riding MS. A boy this young may have had an undiagnosed condition that MS brought out. Or, perhaps the parent knew about the condition and took a chance. Let's hope this was not the case. More will be revealed, I'm sure.
