It's definitely a world of laughter and a world of tears after a naked man was arrested wandering around the It's a Small World ride at Disneyland in California, officials said. 

Anaheim Police arrested a 26-year-old man on Sunday afternoon on suspicion of being under the influence of a controlled substance and indecent exposure, Anaheim Police spokesperson Sgt. Jon McClintock said, according to The Orange County Register

The man, who has not been named, was taken to the hospital as a precaution, officials said. 

Disneyland officials told local outlet KTLA that the man exited the ride's vehicle while it was in operation and that park employees stopped the ride as soon as they were aware of the incident.

A video posted on social media shows the man in his underpants sitting in the exhibition for India as at least one guest can be heard yelling at him to "sit down" and "stop."

Another video shows the man without his underwear walking through the ride's water before police carried him out of the area naked.
