Longest ride stall?

Lenny4eyes · 03-12-2005

What is the longest time your vehicle on a WDW ride has stopped and stayed put? Please specify the time, the ride, and the part of the ride.

When we were there in Oct '04, the log ride keep breaking down. We were on it, and almost to the end, when it stopped for about 15 minutes. When we finally got off, my DD and her DH went on it. It stalled on them too. But they were stuck in an area that was outside (not in the cave) and it started POURING rain...I mean POURING. When they finally got off the ride, they were soaked! We all laugh about it now!

We were stuck on Test Track. On the outside track, on the turn, where you're car is literally sideways, in the rain. We had to hold on to keep from falling into each other. We were there for about 5 minutes (it sure felt like more), when they came and got us out. They did give us courtesy passes.

Talk about bad luck! Thanks for responding!

Please don't tell me you were caught in the rain as well!

Haunted Mansion. 03. It stalled twice, for about 3 minutes each time. I can't remember which parts anymore. But, they had a funny soundtrack playing that covered the stall really well. My mom thought it was part of the ride.

PrincessJill · 03-12-2005

I got stuck on the TTA in the Space Mountain part. It was almost pitch black, and I was right at the part where the SM cars are climbing the first ramp on one side and going over that little hill on the other. (the part where the fake astronauts are at the controls or whatever... anyways....) I was stuck there for 15 minutes, listening to the cars climb LOUDLY up the track and people scream their heads off every time they went over the hill. The lights finally came on and after the longest 15 mins of my life we moved... and I got a free headache as a souvenir! :)

My children would have fainted!!

We got stuck on SSE for about 5-10 minutes. Actually not a bad ride to get stuck on...I think we all closed our eyes and rested!

**Dana** · 03-12-2005

In Peter Pan last January. We were over the spot where underneath all the city is lit up. We were stuck for about 3minutes...5 at most.

karliebug · 03-12-2005

I was stuck for what seemed like an eternity in the carosaul of progress. It was the scene where they are getting ready for Halloweeen. We must have seen that scence about 6 times before it finally started up again. We were also stuck on test track in that sideways position for about 8 minutes. Then it started up again.

disneyguy · 03-12-2005

I just want to say that rides like Haunted Mansion and SSE are made to be stopped when they have to load a handicapped person, so it probably didn't break down they just needed to stop the ride to assist someone in boarding.

However, I have stopped on Test Track twice now. Once was like for 2 minutes, right after the truck "hits" you. The 2nd time was for much longer and was right before you hit the wall, that was 8-10 minutes.

As another note, Test-Track is the ride that breaks down the most of any ride in all of WDW. Very high tech, and that technology constantly breaks down.

Splash Mountain, 20-25 minutes, right before the big drop. There were about 6-8 logs that I could actually see backed up in front of us. We all sat there, listening to the sad, creepy music and wishing we got stuck where they sing Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah!

The other was Haunted Mansion, for about 10 minutes just in front of the room with the scary bride ghost that has the loud heartbeat. Y'know which part I mean? Anyway, I was by myself that time, and that is the only room that terrifies me. I mean TERRIFIES me. I plug my ears and close my eyes every time we go through it!
So naturally, I got stuck there when I was by myself (and when I say by myself, I mean I was riding it late at night with NO ONE in the surrounding doom buggies!) It felt like that heartbeat was vibrating right through me...I had chills...and I seriously thought that by the time I got out of there, I was going to need to dash to the nearest gift shop and buy new pants!

Oh, and another one that wasn't nearly as long (but was fun and nervewracking!) was Grizzly River Run. I've gotten stuck on there multiple times, but once with a full, heavy raft we got stuck above the last drop. (The one where you get DRENCHED!) We had to just hang there for about 10 minutes until we finally went spiraling down!

SSE 04' At least 3 or 4 times (for what felt like forever). Later when we left it had been closed.
