Ouch. When I was at Disney World in Orlando, we got stuck on the Transit Authority, right next to the Buzz Lightyear part, so over and over again we heard: Join Buzz Lightyear defeat the evil emporer Zerg, in Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin!" We heard that for like 20 minutes.... _________________

That reminds me of what happened to myself. The Batman theme kept playing and Joker kept saying, "Curse you Batman, I will get you! AHAHAHAHHAAA!" T_T _________________

We got stuck on the log ride in DisneyLand... I forget what it's called. *shakes head*
Anyway, it was at the incline and the belt stopped. We're looking around then we're all sorta flung forward slightly. Turns out we hit the guy infront of us. Then we get flung forward again. The people behind us kept hitting the logs. That was a real log jam. The matience dudes came out and helped us off. Then we walked through the matience exit. It was really interesting since we basically had to walk through the rest of the ride. _________________

| I was at Magic Mountain and I went on Viper.. I sat by a complete stranger, and as the ride started.. she kept telling me that everyone was going to die.. and she was crying! Oh my gosh!! I couldn't stop laughing. She had her eyes closed the whole time and then as she got off she started hugging and kissing the ground. I don't know. Hehe.. it was strange. |

Theme parks are extremely dangerous. I've heard of one report saying that a girl with really long hair, got her hair caught on a roller coaster railing when it was going over 80mph. Then, her face got literally ripped apart...
There was also another that got injured and died. I don't know what the heck that ride's name is, but it's like an extreme merry-go-round, several feet above the ground. It starts to spin and tilt, then when it tilted too far in one direction (this sort of tilt a whirl is extremely huge...), it snapped and started to fall down. Miraculously, no one was hurt, except for the one guy that was right between the falling spinning top and the ground (he was on the ride). The pressure crushed his bones into dust. Almost literally too. _________________

I work at Six Flags Great Adventure and I listen to that kind of stuff all day when I work, which is usually about 6-7 hours (right now) at a time. Trust me, it's not very fun. _________________

| I was at Universal Studios last year with my family and I went on the One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish ride with my little brother. So we were all strapped in and the ride just starts when a lady a few cars in front of us unbuckles herself and her child and steps off the ride as it starts moving. The ride operator stops the ride and a bunch of staff come over and start talking to her taking about 10 minutes to do so. Of course the ride operator pushed the emergency stop button so he has to call the technical people over and that took another 15 minutes. Then they had to get the ride started again which probably took another 15-20 minutes. So we were stuck there for over a half hour. It was obnoxious. |

I had something similar also. I'm not sure if it was in Yankyland, but in this shopping centre [Or as you for some reason like to call it, a "Mall"] there was this motion ride thingy. And in the line they had screens playing "customer reviews". I remember this black dude saying something like "I've seen it like in the movies it's fantastic". But with the word "Fantastic" he would go high-pitched on the second syllable as if his balls had just dropped.
