Watching it on the news. Cool little tram to evac them down the hill.
One is waving hi to the copter. I wish it was me!
I would imagine the evacuation process is a last resort for the parks...I mean, I wouldn't want my park guests unlached and walking freely down a flight of coaster stairs..I really have no incite into how it works, just my personal thought on itI often wonder, why does it take so long to evacuate? I realize they call in the fire brigade to do this, but why do they let this go on for two hours? (Somehow whenever things like this happen it is always two hours.) I assume that first an engineer is called to come and check things out, but still, I think the call to evacuate should be made faster.
I once was stuck on Manta for almost 40 minutes, train had arrived back in the station, but would not lower in the unload position; they actually were just starting to manually release people (front to back, of course we were last row lol) and then they suddenly got it working again.I would imagine the evacuation process is a last resort for the parks...I mean, I wouldn't want my park guests unlached and walking freely down a flight of coaster stairs..I really have no incite into how it works, just my personal thought on it

Imagine stalling and hanging on the lift hill. I hate the lift hills on flyers :stun:You were hanging for 40 minutes? This is literally my nightmare.
Yes, on the upper body it was not that hard, but it is awkward on the legs. And since it was in the station, everybody is just there staring at you lol.You were hanging for 40 minutes? This is literally my nightmare.

I was there when this happened. I was about to ride it...but this deterred me. I would be going crazy if I was stuck up there.Yes, on the upper body it was not that hard, but it is awkward on the legs. And since it was in the station, everybody is just there staring at you lol.
If I'm not mistaken Manta stalled on the lift once.
