  • thats y i dont wont to go on that

  • i seen that if this keeps happening they are going to get rid of it

  • Little fun fact this section of track the inversion after it have been lowered since opening to reduce the chance of this happening.

  • @NitroGadvRules even smaller fun fact. That part of the track is called the "horse shoe". But you are correct it was lowered.

  • I would hate to be stuck on that.

  • why does this happen so much during test runs?

  • @jwhittle91 there is no momentum to get it over the track

  • @jwhittle91 thats why they run test runs duhhhh!!!

  • so did they used the skyjack to get every one off?

  • haha, that sucks!

  • Oh Shit!

  • O Men :(

  • was there someone in the ride?

  • oh shit now thats skary!!

  • dude thats gotta suck all the blood going to ur head and what not. probably get a killer headache

  • OMG~!!!!!

  • Comment removed

  • its in ingoldmells near skegness and i would hate being stuck upside down lol

  • wtb momentum

  • was that upside down

  • nah, its right side up.. yes its upside down!

  • @GodOfSlain0

    Actually, it stalled on the big turn after the cobra roll, so it was banked fairly steep but it wasn't fully upside down.

  • hahahahaaaaaaaaaaahahahaha thats what you get

  • Thats funny shit no ones even moving around lol everyone is completely still xD

  • that's cos nobodys onit. :P

  • where is fantasy island, because i have never heard of it???

  • Ingoldmells, Skegness

  • No ones on the train. It was a test run in the beginning of the season. They were using sandbags. And I'm pretty sure if people were stuck like that, it wouldn't be that quiet.

  • @Hamster1919 4 real

  • @Hamster1919 lol you are funny and y is your name hamster is it cuz your small

  • wow.. that really sucks

  • How did this happen?

  • Omg,im having a final destination 3 momentt ahaa

  • oh my gosh. that's dangerous

  • Hell, I'd pay good money just to be stuck up on Top Thrill Dragster.

  • LOL well funny looks like some noobs got pwnd!! by the park. i wonder if they got free tickets to come back again after there extra coster hang time, LoLz all round!

  • FUKiiN HELL MY SISTER WAS ON THAT MANN!!! SHE WiiLL NEVER GO ON A ROLLERCOASTER AGAiiN!!

  • Such a bad lie.

  • wow i went to missouri because my aunt lived there and we rode the prowler(the new ride there) and right as we got to the very top it stopped and scared me to death i hate heights but will ride rollar coasters.

  • omg that would suck BIG TIME

  • IS TAT UPSIDE DOWN?

  • HOLY SHIT THAT WUD B CRAZY¬!

  • looks like great american scream machine

  • wow, what a terrible place to stall!

    Gotta just love vekoma coasters....................

  • holy shnackle crackles (my new motto when something is creepy or crazy or weird) lol

  • Sick ridee be bettaa if it lasted longerr

    x33

  • thats no fun

  • i went on that ! it takes pictures and you  can buy them in a keyring or watever.its really really fast !!lol its GREAT! xx

  • I agree. Best SLC ever.

    Obviously, Quashroom, you have yank superiority complex. Jubilee Odyssey was biggest when it opened.

  • THAT WOULD SUCK!

  • fail....

  • this ride is forever stalling!!! at least now they sorted the problem, by lowering a couple of the other hills, mainly the cobra roll and horseshoe turn, but they still shut it when its cold or windy, and in 2005 the seat restraints broken, so the trains went back to the factory to be fixed!!! but above all that, it is one of the largest SLCs!! so if you go to skeggy and its open go on it! best 4 quid you will ever spend!

  • The largest SLC in the world actually, not that thats anything to be proud of.

  • nobody was even on the ride.

  • ahaha

  • i'd shit myself

  • oh god i went on that a couple of days ago, i didnt know it stopped, screw that ride. lol.

  • Lol That's What You Get For Being Charged £4 To Go On The Ride The Same Thing Happened To Me On The Millenium Rollercoaster Also At Fantasy Island, UK.

  • Eee Knappster101 Wat Ya Chatting Ya Stink Just Like You Mum Did Last Night All I Was Giving Was Information :@

  • go to hell you self centered bastard

  • djoiner2013: I'm sorry, but the same thing happens in America too. Take Deja Vu at various Six Flags parks for example. They always stall and can't complete the circut (go around the track). Kingda Ka and Top Thrill Dragster don't complete the circut either, they sometimes rollback-several times a week! Also, this ride was imported from the Netherlands by Vekoma-they are the designers of the ride. Us roller coaster enthusiasts look down on you for your stupidness.

  • IM

    KIDDING

    GAWSH

  • waste of time

  • i was on that ride b4 lol :{

  • Oohh, i've been on that :)

    xx

  • where is it?

  • Ingoldmills Skegness :D

  • Once again, the British prove how proper and superior they are compared to us Americans.

    God damn it.

  • So you think that have never happened in America? Stupid american bastard.

  • D: Stop giving us americans a snobbish outlook. It happens everywhere, idiot.

  • americans..british..we are both the same just get along. we need you and you need us so sotp saying one is more superior than the other..they are both the same

  • i agree. anyways the americans came from england in the 1st place. Lol but now the americans are richer and bigger than us, ironic realii lolz

  • cedar point & the six flag's theme parks account for 60 % or all the ride malfunction in the world and over 64 people have died on american themepark rides in the last 10 years

  • ^0-0^

  • America also has probably 5x more theme parks than the UK or anyone else for that matter.......

  • err have u seen the size of american compared to the uk?

  • was there any1 on it ?

  • A Vekoma SLC(Custom) coaster.

  • the front is off the track

  • omg is that stuck upside down ?

  • yes

  • Oddly, it started raining down warm in just that one section of the UK ... that one part of the park -- wacky weather they had ther that day. LOL! Seriously, though, I hope all were okay -- it's gotta be immensely scary to be stuck or have something go wrong.

  • I saw it stall during testing... they modified the track after the first season.

  • dude my nuts would fall out my mouth

  • I would faint cause all my blood would go into my head XD

  • omgosh

    x

  • i hope everyone is okay because i was on the kamakazi at the fair and my seat was broke and so was my freinds and we almost fell out!

  • i feel nauseous just watching that. i hope everyone got off safely. sometimes i like to scare myself, but if that ever happened to me, i'd never go near another rollercoaster again.

  • dear god poor ppl the blood probly rushed to their head and made them bonkers

  • i would be screaming if that was me

  • damn

    and upside down!

    must have been rough!

  • What? WAIT...they were upsidedown??

    How would the people get them down?...

  • I think I would have pissed my pants twenty times over. and then thrown up.

  • I have been stuck on to rides in califonia at Great America in Santa Clara. #1 the bird cages at the very top for two hours it was a long time ago. #2 The Edge for 45 min and yes at the very top.

  • Holy smoke..

  • they were upside down too!!! lol

  • i feel srry for ppl on it

  • ive been on that =D

    it didnt stall tho :P

  • i was in the market n i wernt passed it n i seen the train stuck in the cobra bend thing were tht was now i no y

  • I'm glad no one was on that. That would of been HELLA scary.

  • i fucking hate them when they say "hella" i just feel like sticking them across the face

  • connorbruce11 i dont understand what u are saying

  • Its a good ride i go to fantasy island were this is once/twice a year

  • dude... noone was even on that... they were testing it to see if it would go...

  • Nobody was even on it so who cares...

  • lol, i went on a ride where i got stuck upsidown in america, we got stuck on a barrel roal so it took them ages to get us out.

  • "Grate" Spelling

  • So THATS why they lowered the turnaround!

  • Least they didnt stall on the dragster thats scary

  • omg thats well danegerous head rush lol i got stuck on air before in the station where ure tilted up lol

  • Imagine if you have a shit or piss attack while stuck up there!

  • thts well bad, i hav been on it and i bet it would be f*cking scary been upside down

  • FUCK!

  • man that must suck that happened to me but on an upside down ferris wheel .. in baghdad lol

  • o my god

  • Actually, BUY VKOMA COASTERS. But... take care of them afterwards. They're cheap and age horribly. Parks who are cheap enough to get them, are cheap enough to give them the care they need... and then stuff like this happens. Crap like this dosen't happen to Disney's ($!) Vekomas.

  • Thats Vekoma Coasters for you.... Just a hint for all theme parks.... DONT BUY VEKOMA COASTERS!!!

  • oops, my bad...

  • they need more lub

  • Ew! Nice find, thank god they've fixed that now, it scares me senselessly.

  • i <3 skegness thats a well kool rollercoaster lol

  • Its In Skegness Isnt It LOL I Went On It Its Fucking Crazy Feels Dangerous To But Its Cool Any Way There Is A Massive Market Their!!!!!!!!!!

  • love the name

  • Boring. I'd hate to "hang" around all day and wait to be rescued.

  • should av sent another train around to smash into it....would av made the video worth watchin

  • how did they get it down the whole track??

  • Most coasters ( including this one ) run on nothing but gravity after the lift hill. When trains are sent around empty they go a lot slower. Usually if the train doesn't have enough energy it'll roll backwards > forwards > backwards and after a while come to a stop. In some very very rare cases it will be perfectly balanced. This train on this SLC is longer than most coaster trains usually are, the longer the train the more likely it is that it can become perfectly balanced.

  • they also put safety features on roller coasters so that when a zomputer senses that something is wrong, it stops the train. that could have happened as well

  • There are no mid-course brakes on this ride, the train stopped because there was either too much firction (not enough lubricant) or the wind was high, and stopped the train from gaing enough speed coming out of the previous inversion.

  • NO NO NO you are wrong

    1. It was too light

    2. Not Enough weight 2 give tha coaster anough G-Force 2 go aorund tha bend

    soz 4 bad english

  • haha whos wrong?

  • OMG! There were people on there? It seems that they´re cleaning and taking all the cars from the rollercoaster, like it would be after crashing down and rescued the people and so on... I didn´t know this could happen... =0

  • I wish I was on front row at the time!

  • Haha good thing they were testing...

  • that would suck!

  • Damn I Went On This- So Glad That Wasn't Me Lmao

  • what a sucky place to stall lol

  • why were those guys hav a rope, and pulling it down?

  • but why did they stop?

  • aha

  • ahahahah suckerz

  • wow what happened?

  • heavy winds caused the ride to stall on the track.

  • HOW THE HELL DO YOU KNOW?

  • Because I read an article about on Screamscape when it happened. And also because that's pretty much the only thing that would cause it to stall.

  • AMAZING RIDE!!

    I recomend it =]

  • its test...

  • major head rush

  • On roller coaster database, they said on the 2003/2004 off season the 4th inversion was lowered. What year was this?

  • whew. good thing no one was on it and it was a test run. Dude if I saw that on one of the rides I would soo not get on it.

  • It's defiantely a test run, there is no one one it. You would see their feel. I've seen the ride seats in pieces so many times before.

    This is at fantasy Island in, Ingoldmells they only have 2 major coasters.

    I dare say one of the best coasters in the UK, a hidden gem, it's the first drop and the view I love. Just a shame it's closed a lot.

  • I feel sorry for the people upside down! What a place to stall

  • its a test run

  • arnt they supposed to know wether it will make it round or not, before they build it?

  • alot of times when i rollercoaster is first built it stalls when it tests because everything is still tight and new and not broken in yet so they have to work out all the kinks before it can be opened.

  • owned

  • OH MY GOD

    was there people on the ride??

    i would be so freaked out, and like crying and stuff

  • fun for the whole family!

  • you do know if the coaster is full if everyone leant forward the coaster would get enough momentum to fall down the loop so no-one was upside down

  • lol shit that mustuve suck being up there. how long did it take to get everyone down, and HOW!?  or did the ride just restart?

  • lol upside down man. aint gonna get worse than that. :)

  • omg! sucks for those people! i hate rides like that but i mean to be stuck like that on one of em!??!? id die!

    o wait...i think its a test run...lol......but id die if that happened to me!

  • I would hate to be hung upside down that long!

  • It didn't stall, the emergency remote safety brakes detected a problem and locked up, coasters are designed to do this so a train won't derail in the event of structural failure, there are sensors all over the ride that communicate with the train, they just happened to glich.

  • hahahahaha you loser, you're talking out of your hole

  • as a matter of fact jack-ass, I'm an ex coaster designer for Arrow Dynamics out of SLC Utah, I think I would know more about coasters than you.

  • no, you're still talking out of your hole. emergency brakes did not cause the ride to stall - they don't exist. at any rate there are zero trims between the top of the lift and the horseshoe so the ride couldn't have possibly stopped because of "brakes". the ride notoriously stalled and valleyed because of the weather conditions.

  • You still talking out of your hole idiot, like I said, I used to work on this type of equipment, if it had just stalled, the slightest amount of pressure either way would have moved the train, the front and back cars are weighted, but not equally, it wouldn't just balance like that. SO SHUT UP ALREADY!

  • how would you get free if there was ppl on and they couldnt get it moving ??

  • They can simply push the train forward so it returns to the station by gravity or if it hasn't got enough momentum it will valley again in a lower location
