London Fire Brigade was called to Chessington World of Adventures shortly after 17:00 BST. Two thirds of those stranded on the Rameses Revenge ride 20ft (6m) in the air were children, a brigade spokesman said. Firefighters had to cut people out and get them down by ladder.[/quote]

Related: I went to an amusement park about a month ago and my seatbelt wouldn't come un-done. Literally thought of Mr.bones.
When I was at Alton Towers once, the Oblivion ride broke down just before they enter the first tunnel. They were stuck there for about half an hour too. They were stuck like this: [IMG]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/d2/AltonTowers-Oblivion.JPG/450px-AltonTowers-Oblivion.JPG[/IMG] For over half an hour.
Oh no there were CHILDREN on the ride when they were in no danger whatsoever. [QUOTE=IKTM;41060163]"I want to get off of Top Spin 4"[/QUOTE] Why didn't they just send in a mechanic to pull out his clip board and magically make the restraints open?

The first tunnel? There's only one...? Or did I blackout while going into the first and wake up leaving the last?

[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/nwczXXt.jpg[/IMG] It broke down right at the top of the giant drop for about half an hour then just suddenly rocketed off the edge with no warning. Scared the absolute shit out of everyone.
