All Disney parks together see a lot more people than just the one Action Park, and Disneyland alone opened long before Action Park. It would be a lot more interesting to see the proportion of visitors who die, not just the magnitude.

I think it's more interesting that a company with the size and popularity of Disney can get away with killing at least 15 people, whereas action park got shut down and cleaned up after only 6.
