    I was stuck on ToT for half an hour, the we asked if we could ride again and they escourted us to the front of the line. This was in the 90's, before fastpasses. Have also been stuck on Haunted Mansion for about 20 min.

    Only once on the Buzz Lightyear ride. It was probably for no more than 5 minutes, but they turned the lights on (I believe the ride was stopped because someone had dropped something) and we lost all our points. Not a big deal though.

    I've been stuck on SSE so many times I can't even count. Likewise for Horizons (RIP). I have also been stuck on IASW, but who hasn't? Never been evacuated, though. Kinda wish I would be. It sounds fun!

    a week and a half ago on splash mountain....we had just passed the riverboat scene and got stuck by the next set of animontrics....we were there for a long time (heard zippetty-do-da a mind numbing hundred times)...they finally turned the music off...but all the animatronics kept moving which was a bit creepy without the sound (kind of a Westworld effect)...we sat there for a long time (over 15 minutes) through several attempted restarts and received anytime/anyplace fastpasses when we finally got off the ride.
    There's a great big beautiful tomorrow

    I got stuck for about 10 minutes in the haunted Mansion on my own at the scene where the candlestick is floating. I swear the candlestick started moving closer to me. It was creepy!!

    We got stuck on the TTA for about 20 minutes when my nephew was 4.5 years old. It was in one of the areas that is semi-dark. After sitting there for awhile, he yells out "HELLO? Is anyone out there?" It was so funny. Another time my other nephew and I got stuck right as the monorail enters Epcot as you make the loop by Journey into Imagination. We were stuck up there for about 30-40 minutes because the monorail in front of us was broken down. We also stopped for about 5 minutes in the darkest part of Haunted Mansion when my nephew was 2.5. I was in the car in front of my sis, BIL and nephew and he was quiet for a couple of minutes and then let out a blood curdling scream. I started talking to him so he knew they weren't alone back there and he was alright, especially since we started moving not too long after that. Now I make sure I bring a tiny flashlight if I'm with little ones.

    I'm curious - what happened there?

    Also, for anyone who has been stuck on Space Mountain (or EE, or RnRC, or any other rides where fear of heights might be an issue!) how the heck did they evacuate you? There is no way I would get out of those cars and climb down the flimsy little ladders I always see on the side of the ride! I'm (a little!) afraid of heights, so I'm curious whether they force you to get off the ride? As foolish as it sounds, I'd rather sit in the car for hours then climb down from the highest part of the Space Mountain track

    Well, on the TTA you see people on Space Mountain (not really "see") I saw some cast members climbing the ride with the lights on. Everyone shouted "Woo hoo!!" And they waved. Cast members are very nice!

    a lot of the shorter waits, especially on the constant movement rides (peter pan, haunted mountain, spaceship earth) may not be malfunctions of the ride but they may stop the ride for a minute or two to let someone handciapped get on the ride. someone that can not move along with the ride and jump in.

    the only ride we got stuck on was the Pinochio ride at disneyland. and was cool about it was everyone had to get off and walk to the front. My mom couldn't do that because she is (was, she just got her knee replaced) one of those people that is handicapped...so they waited until everyone was gone, and then one of the CMs walked along the car to the front w/ my mom in it....he told us lots of stories while we were going...

    i have been stuck on lots of rides, including test track, haunted mansion, big thunder mountain, tta, universe of energy, spaceship earth, and last but not least splash mountain.

    most of the time we just sit for a while then the ride starts back up, i think we were pulled off the ride only two or three times.

    when i was a little younger i went on would never go on splash mountain, the drop freaked me out. one day in the park my dad convinced be to go and so im on the ride and everything is going fine, we then start the climb up to the top for the big drop. and just as we were about to crest over the top the ride stops. i have to say that was the longest time of my life.

    Cool

    Short waits on a number of rides. though our longest about 15 minutes or so we were stuck on Splash Mountain just as we were about to ascend the ramp for the big drop. Man those vultures were annoying!
    My youngest DD and I got stuck on Tower of Terror just before the car goes into the elevator shaft for the drop sequence. Felt bad for the folks stuck in the shaft. After about 5 minutes the lights came on (very interesting) we sat for another 10 minutes or so until a couple of cast members escorted us to a waiting 'real' elevator for the trip down. Great bunch of folks stuck with us, we all laughed it up and had a fine time!
