Disney will ban selfie sticks at all of its theme parks around world from July 1st. The entertainment giant has become latest company to ban sticks. Universal Studios was one of first companies to put ban in place. Many museums now also ban them. Kim Prunty, Disney spokeswoman, said the ban was because of concerns that sticks were dangerous for customers and Disney workers. She said: "We strive to provide great experience for entire family, and unfortunately, selfie sticks have become growing safety concern for both our guests and cast." She added that staff have had to stop rides because people were using selfie sticks on them.

Selfie sticks have become very popular in recent years. They were designed so that people with mobile cameras could take photos of themselves. It seems as though everyone in world is taking self-portraits to put on Facebook, Twitter and other social media sites. Even president of USA has been seen taking selfies. However, many people are getting angry with others who use selfie sticks, especially at tourist attractions. One passenger who used stick on rollercoaster at Disney California Adventure shut ride down for nearly hour. The PC World magazine offers solution. It wrote: "Maybe you should…use the selfie sticks that we're all born with - your arms."
