Hubby and i were talking about getting "stuck" on splash mountain right before the drop so I was wondering 1) what's the weirdest spot on a ride you've been "stuck" 2) how long did it take them to get you off?

I wonder what happens when someone who can't walk is in the coster? How would they get them down the stairs? - Princess Daisy  156.6 #2198 9:25PM
That's a really good question!! I wanna kno too!! - PinkMinnie  162.7 #2118 10:55PM

They have to call Disneyland Fire Department (DFD) who often would have a special wheelchair or other contraption. The family and said guest are unfortunately forced to wait longer inside or on the attraction until the appropriate people are there. - IDVandalSkipperCM  1290.8 #63 11:24PM
Oh we'll a fireman can carry me any day! - Princess Daisy  156.6 #2198 11:30PM
Most of the DFD guys have put in their fair share of time at stations around the area. :P - IDVandalSkipperCM  1290.8 #63 11:38PM
When I was a lead on screamin'. we used to make sure that the guest, or someone in there party could take them off the ride. - mexman  11.3 #6388 12:04AM
i actually did get stuck right before the drop it took them 20 min to come get us - CM_Oregonducksfan  2621.5 #18 8:53PM

We got stranded in the room in IAS where all the dolls, from all the countries, are singing at the same time for 24 hours!!!!!πŸ™€πŸŒ€actually it was about 30 minutes... but it felt like 24. - Boundin  424.2 #298 8:55PM
We were stuck on that ride forever at one time and my daughter refused to ride it again. :) - kueenofhearts  209.3 #1499 9:14PM
Your daughter is very smart! :-) - Boundin  424.2 #298 9:22PM
BTMRR right before the top of the first hill. Think it took about twenty minutes before they announced that CMs were coming to get us and another five before they arrived. - KermitFan13  406.4 #321 9:18PM
I got stuck at the very top hill. The poor cm who came to get us was so winded from walking all those hills. We ended up walking all the way out. - bluefairy  627.0 #174 11:34PM
We got stuck right at the end of Winnie the Pooh- before you go through the last doors outside. It took 45 minutes for us to be let out- my daughter fell asleep. Sadly, that was before the iPhone. - MoonWillow  367.4 #378 9:22PM
I've been walked out of Splash. We were right after the final drop, before entering the final show building. I got to see all the animatronics up close, it was really neat 😁 - BettyPoop  232.0 #1213 9:27PM
I had a walk off in the first show room and we ended up exiting into their yard and entered back into the park via the gate at the rides exit. Cool to see the animitronics up close. - Hagrid  26.4 #4554 9:58AM
Same here! Was this on Black Friday 2012?!? That's when it happened to me. - ibsleepingbeauty12  31.3 #4305 5:35PM
When the kids were super little, we were at Disneyland during a nasty rain storm. It was so bad that the power kept shutting down. We were on pirates just before you get to the battle when the power shut down. We waited a half an hour in the dark. Suddenly the lights came on, and two CMs came to lead us out. - mrstoad  240.4 #1107 9:46PM
I got stuck on Indy right by the snake. I was not happy. I'm afraid of snakes and well twenty minutes is a long time during a hyperventilating over a fake snake. - wickedlyraven.  277.2 #750 9:49PM
This past trip we talked our 12 yr old to go on it, he was terrified of the snake but had been on it many times a couple years ago. We broke down right after we passed the snake. He was not happy and even had a few tears (you didn't hear that from me). I don't think he'll be going on that for awhile. - mamamouse22  26.4 #4558 10:09PM
We got stuck on Pirates at WDW. We were in the very last section at the Treasure Room, and they had a bridge that rested on the edge of the boat. We were lucky-the folks behind us in the middle of the water had to wait until the boats ahead were pushed out of the way and then get pushed to where they could get out- all the pushing through the water by CM's. it was neat getting a super close view of anamatronic Jack! - chelebee  230.2 #1237 9:58PM
I've gotten stuck once--on Splasg Mountain right before the big drop. We were there for about 45 minutes before getting walked off. - fletheartsdisney  360.2 #387 9:58PM
got stuck in indy once at the rolling ball scene for like 20 min ,no walk out but indy just swinging back and forth,but I think the scariest stuck would have to be tower of terror at the top - pikarich  595.0 #184 10:00PM
I wonder if anyone ever has been stuck upside down on Screamin'! I would not like that at all! - secretagentangel  667.9 #156 10:13PM
I don't know that it's possible for a train to stop at that spot on Screamin'. I don't think they'd have a safety/park brake (yes, that's what they're called) at the top of an upside down loop! - IDVandalSkipperCM  1290.8 #63 10:29PM
^^Yep, just phisically its impossible for Scremin' to since the trains are so long and the loop is very small. The only time a roller coaster has been stuck upside down that I know of was at Six Flags Great America. - BrerRabbit  228.7 #1259 10:50PM
No, but it is posdible to stop right before you are about to enter the loop and then go backwards. I'd love that. - Jacqueline  546.7 #204 8:50AM
Side I now know it won't "stop " upside down maybe ill ride it! I couldn't get over the "what if" we get stuck upside down! - Disneymomab  15.1 #5651 1:22PM
Many years ago I got stuck on BTMRR going up the hill where the rocks fall from above. We were there about 30 minutes and it was very awkward and uncomfortable. They walked everyone off but our train and then they got things back going. A couple years ago we were stuck inside IASW for 45 minutes and the music never stopped. Very scary. - mamamouse22  26.4 #4558 10:13PM
We got stuck on Peter Pan once. I was 6 months pregnant and had to pee so bad. We were right by the mermaids at the end. They walked off the boats right up to ours and said they couldn't walk us off because we were too far back. It was torture! They appologized a few times while we were stuck there. I forgot how long we were stuck there but it was a while. Whenever we get to those mermaids we can't help but giggle still. - Autoalice  135.7 #2507 10:27PM
Years ago during some preview days at DCA we got stuck on California screamin right after the loop we were pretty high up, I had pushed my lap bar down to tight and the music was blaring in my ears all while being stuck it was about 40 minutes until they had to come and walk all of us down...I've only been on that ride once more since that day! - chorizo11  82.6 #3244 10:35PM
I've been stuck on Space Mountain. The lights all came on and we waited for about 15 minutes until CM's came up the elevators and walked over and pushed us. With the way the ride is built we just went down the track. Some parts were slow and others fast. We got to the end and got it running again and asked us if we all wanted to go again and everyone screamed Yes! I was petrified to go again and still am. It's pretty scary looking down and seeing how high up you are! - MrsSchnooks  571.2 #193 11:08PM
We got stuck on an outside turn on the Matterhorn at an angle for 45 min. We then got walked off. There was a small section without a rail and had to hold on to the sled. A LITTLE scary. - sewedna  84.4 #3214 11:20PM
We have been stuk on soace mountain a couple times but this last weekend we were stopped on tower of terror in the pitch black. People were turning on their phones at we could have light but the cm kept asking us to turn them off. Felt so bad there was a little kid and he was freaked out. Finally we got pulled back down and the man sitting next to my husband was removed from the ride, they would only tell us that he was playing with his safety belt. - mcramos925  247.4 #1030 7:43AM
Oh that's horrible what that man did! - MrsSchnooks  571.2 #193 10:14AM
Got stuck on Space in the tunnel right before the big dome. I was sad because we couldn't see the rest of the ride, just the lift section we were on and because of the angle, it was kind of awkward to get out. - Sarafina  398.5 #335 7:50AM
The worst place I've been stuck would for sure be Indiana jones on the bridge for 30 mins talk about being warm, pitch black and almost 15 mins until the cast members got to us - DagostinoMagic  8.7 #7224 8:10AM
I've only had one walkoff - Mr. Toad's Wild Ride. We stopped right before the fire scene. That was interesting to walk through (and REALLY warm). We only had to wait about five-ten minutes, though. - jmgphx  322.7 #509 8:16AM
OMG I would love this. I would totally dig a picture in that room. - Sarafina  398.5 #335 10:39AM
We had a walk off from the haunted mansion, right before you load into your doom buggy. It was pretty cool! - LisaMouse7531  408.9 #317 8:20AM
The top of the largest drop on CA Screamin in DCA.. - Jacqueline  546.7 #204 8:47AM
I kid. I wish I were able to exoerience a walk off up there.. that'd make my day. - Jacqueline  546.7 #204 8:48AM
Our family was stuck almost at the top of space mtn. It took 15-20 minutes before they got up there to let us out. Then we had to walk down the entire ride. All the lights were on. Then we were given free passes for ANY ride. Used our first one for Peter Pan. :) - briane123  5.6 #9587 8:54AM
I got stuck on splash halfway up the drop for about 5 minutes then the ride started moving but then got stuck again at the top for about 5 minutes. It felt like we would fall backwards. No walk off. It was late and not crowded so they let us ride again with no problems. - Nicole  380.2 #355 8:55AM
Matterhorn in the tunnel, Indy at the ball drop, splash at the beginning, pirates at the building on fire, and small world. Surprisingly, nothing in DCA! - lovetheland7  139.1 #2457 9:52AM
I got stuck in one of the rafts on Grizzl river run! They had us go to the handicapped raft because there was a party of two who needed a few more to fill put e raft and we got stuck with the bar (that's supposed to push us out) under the raft, lifting up one side! We were stuck in the sun for about half an hour, and we had to wait for the Disney Fire Department to get us out! It was an adventure! - MinnieMouseKakes  9.2 #7013 10:31AM
my favorite was getting stuck on matterhorn, the cms came running up the mountain and gave us a push back down. my friend has a thing for lederhosen so needless to say she was in heaven. - missgoofy  367.8 #376 10:46AM
We got stuck on BTMRR on the hill at the beginning underneath where the water is flowing. We were there for quite a while and although the water isn't directly on the train, it splashes and we got wet. We loved every minute of it and eventually they came and walked us off. - PirateQueenBriezy  291.4 #660 12:03PM
I would prefer to get stuck before the drop so I could stay as dry as possible. - JenInWonderland  1025.1 #86 12:49PM
When I was at WDW, I saw stuck on Test Track for about 10 minutes. The ride audio went out and the car went into cruise control (when it was supposed to gain speed). We just sat there until the car started up again. When we got back to the loading area, the CMs seemed like nothing happened to us and almost didn't know we were stuck. - BaseballMickey_CM  2821.8 #16 12:56PM
I was just wondering what do they do if you get stuck on Pirates? Like in the battle scene? Do they borrow a canoe, and come get you? - PixiPirateMaid  114.1 #2823 1:31PM
they can do various things, but most likely they'll gradually move all the boats to the nearest emergency exit and escort guests off from there. It really depends what the emergency is - BaseballMickey_CM  2821.8 #16 1:40PM
and you'll use your seat as a flotation device - BaseballMickey_CM  2821.8 #16 2:17PM
Thank you, I really was curious. Like do the guests treat it like the Titanic? And try to swim for shore lol. - PixiPirateMaid  114.1 #2823 3:37PM
I got stuck on splash (thankfully not before the big drop!) but a CM came by and got everyone off then we walked along the side to an exit. It only took like 5 min and there was a few bunches of people and it was really organized. Another time I got stuck on Indy, the lights came on and we were stuck for a few min, and started going again lights still on. Then we stopped and went a few more times. We made it to the loading/unlading area then everything was fixed they let us go again. - victoria13  271.9 #808 1:46PM
A couple of years ago I got stuck at the snake part in Indy. Was there for about 45 minutes before someone showed up with a ladder. Walked halfway through the ride. Turns out a car two cars in front of us had a flat tire. - Woozle  6.0 #9076 2:15PM
Also, my favorite part of getting stuck on Indy is when the cars start back up, it actually sounds like a car starting πŸ˜„ - BettyPoop  232.0 #1213 2:23PM
10 minutes at the spiders and then 25 minutes at the ball in Indy. Same ride! - garrlusdland  52.2 #3700 6:00PM
I got stuck on splash mountain and it was fun because we got escorted of the right and we got to walk through the beginning of the ride so it was like we were riding it backwards an all the animals were moving but none were speaking it was weird (: - BengalBoy12  34.6 #4179 11:16AM
