This may be the craziest malfunction of an amusement ride I’ve ever heard of. The E-stop literally didn’t work and maintenance had to disconnect the power from the ride.

    This is my worst nightmare on any spinning flat ride. I would be projectile vomiting everywhere.

      Haha… Honestly the one thing that I always thought would be horrible is an early rollback on one of the Schwarzkopf shuttle loops. I’ve been told that Laser Loop at Kennywood would take around a half hour of rolling back and forth between the loop and the spike before it came to a stop so the riders could be evac’d. I could handle it for a while but a half hour would not be fun.
