    Last June DS and I got stuck on Primevil whirl...we had just started across the top and it stopped. We only had to sit there for a minute or two when the CM's came up and lead us down the cat walk.....it was pretty cool to walk down it from the top.....

    Got stuck on BTWRR right as it was climbing the first hill. We sat there for about 10 minutes or so, when a CM arrived and walked us all out.

    My in laws got stuck on Pirates about 10 years ago. They sat in the auction scene for about a half hour... so much that my DH and FIL started screaming "We want the redhead!!!" over and over! (I'm sure the other guests loved this.) MIL refuses to ever go on Pirates again but I am sure FIL will win her over on the next trip.
    I got stuck on Buzz once (prob for a wheelchair) and got my best score ever! I have also gotten backed up on Small World in the last scene but it is one of my favorites so I didn't care!

    DH and I got stuck on Mulholland Madness at DL (it's like the Primeval Whirl) a couple of years ago at night, of course. It's the only time being stuck on a ride where I've actually had to get out of the vehicle and be escorted down the service stairs. Made for great entertaining handycam video.

    The worst experience we ever had was a stoppage on Splash Mountain. It seemed like we had been stalled for two hours but it was really only 15 or 20 minutes. We never did hear what happened, but we just kept hearing the announcement over and over about staying seated and that the ride would restart momentarily! Needless to say we were sick of hearing it by the time we got off.

    I have gotten stuck on quite a few rides. The worst one however was buz lightyear in the very last room where all the stars are spinning around. I had to turn the car around because I was getting motion sick (which is odd for me) from the spinning stars

    Last month, we got stuck on the Safari for about 20 minutes when a pelican decided to sit in the road in front of the vehicle ahead of us. The CM obviously had no prepared schpiel for that situation? "A rhino can eat up to 150 lbs of vegetation a day! ... can anyone tell me how much a rhino can eat every day? ....good! ...can anyone tell me what animal can eat up to 150 lbs of vegetation a day? ...good ..."

    Then later that day, we got stuck on TOT. We got through all of the show elements, but right when the car got into place for the drop/shoot-up, it just stopped. We were stuck there for maybe five minutes before they got us out and walked us to another (normal!) elevator. The walls and floor were all mirrors! Then we went back to the loading area and got right back on the ride in another ride vehicle.

    DD6 and I got stuck on Splash Mountain two weeks ago. We were the last ones to get on just as they were closing the ride. We were stuck in front of the big hill and waited about 10 minutes before we started up again. Since we were the lasts guests on and there were a couple of empty boats ahead of us, we were worried that they had figured everyone was already off and had closed the ride.

    What made it worse was DW was waiting by the gift shop for us to come out. After about 10 minutes of noone exiting, she started freaking out and thought she had missed us and were wandering around in the park without her. (We had separate cell phones,but unbeknownst to me she had left hers in the back pack which I was carrying {not the only time that happened that week}). Anyway, we finally finished the ride, but I will not get on a similar type ride that close to closing again.

    the whole family and I were just stuck in the Haunted Mansion during our trip last week of September. It was like 20 mins and we were near the end in the graveyard scene. Not too good of a place to be with a very upset 5 & 7 year old. I mean the were good through the rest of the ride but getting stuck in the graveyard scene was a little too much for them. Due to all the music and sound effects playing you couldn't hear anything the announcer person said. I mean you could hear that something was trying to be said over the speaker, but couldn't make out the words.

    I was a little upset that they didn't say anything to us at all when we excited with what was clearly two very shaken kids. They offered no explanation as to what had happned or fast passes for another ride or anything. The line was a 15 min wait when we went in and was up to about 45 mins by the time we excited. truthfully I did like the ride, but I can pretty much guarantee that DD and DS will probably never ride it again.

    My seven year old and I got stuck on SM at DL this March. We were about half way through and the ride came to sudden stop and all of the lights came on. We were there for about 15 minutes before a couple of CMs had to push start our car to get us out. It was actually neat to be able to look around inside SM with the lights on, and when we did get to the station they told us to stay on if we wanted another ride. My son thought that was so cool - to go again.

    We got stuck on Ellen's ride too. We had to walk out from the first scene. The ride vehicles never started and we sat there for a while before they took everyone out.
    A few trips back we got stuck on Dinosaur just a few cars away from where you get off. This doesn't sound bad but it was terrible. I started to get a panic attack. I had to get that pesky seat belt off. I didn't need to stand, I just needed to know I could stand. Anyway, DH talked me out of that one. The other riders just looked at me like I was

    We got stuck on Haunted Mansion several times. The first time was with my daughter, who was 5. We were in the graveyard scene and she was terrified. Needless to say that was a long 20 minutes.

    I've been stuck in that same spot before, just watching that little chariot over, and over, and over. I've also been stuck on the decent, and that does make for a nice nap.

    July 06 I spend about 15-20 on Test Track, in a dark spot, with 5 people I didn't know. We had a ball laughing and joking.

    On my most recent trip a couple weeks ago, I managed to get stuck in Pooh. We also stopped for a few minutes flying over London on Peter Pan's Flight.

    Between us, my family has been stuck on a ride in almost every park!

    At DL we were on Snow White when the ride stopped. Luckily we were at the beginning and they let us off right away. My DS (10 mo at the time) started freaking out right away. Some teenager had gotten off the ride to steal the apple. I guess this happens all the time there.

    My DH was stuck on POTC when he was fairly little with his whole family. His grandma thinks it was over an hour of listening to "YO HO YO HO..." over and over and over. It wasn't until all the small children (my DH included) all started crying hysterically that a CM came to help them off the ride.

    on my last trip, it felt like we got stuck on everything. we got stuck on pooh, buzz lightyear(2x), CoP, and (worst of all) the great Movie Ride. Great movie ride was awful... we were stuck in the tarzan scene for upwards of 20 min with tarzan swinging back and forth yelling >.<

    A few years ago I got stuck on the Buzz Lightyear ride with my DD. She kept spinning the car round and round for about twenty minutes. We had great scores!

    I've been stuck twice on Test Track. Once on the steeply banked curve outside, and once in the cold temperature room. Of course, that one had to be the longest, and they didn't turn off the cold, so I was shivering by the time the ride started up again. At least they let us ride again without having to exit the vehicle and rejoin the queue.
    Jambo everyone!

    Default Lots of break downs!

    We were in the World September 22-29th. We had quite a few break downs! The Seas with Nemo ride for about 5 mins. Winnie the Pooh for about 5 mins. HM was down about 10 minutes right as we were about to board and it went down twice while we were on it for about 1-2 minutes each time. We also got to see the last scene in CoP 3 times! Also, Everest was up and down all day the day we were there. I got to ride it once, but we were about to board it for the second time on the next train and it went down. It was right at 5:00 so we didn't get to ride it again! Also Dinosaur was down the first 2 hours of the day. I am glad I didn't get stuck on that!
