Ravi is walking through a passenger boarding bridge or "jetway" to board his American Airlines plane at the Indianapolis International Airport. He is mostly looking down at his
feet while he is walking, but he looks up briefly and is startled by a very large poster of a roaring lion hanging on the wall a promotional poster for Disney's The Lion King He
jumps, loses his balance, falls sideways to the ground, and rollstumbles all the way down the jetway until he crashes to a stop on the landing. Ravi sues Disney for negligence.
Ravi will most likely:
Lose, because Ravi caused his own harm by watching his feet instead of keeping his eyes up to see where he was going.
Win, because it was foreseeable to Disney that its posters could be situated so as to create a dangerous hazard.
Win, because Disney owes a duty to not unreasonably frighten the public.
Lose, because Ravi was not a foreseeable plaintiff, so Disney owed no duty of care to Ravi.
