It has happened a bunch of times before, just with no one on it.

thats freeking cool

would hate to be stuck up there (afraid of heights).

that would be an insane thrill ride if they could somehow make perfectly balanced every time XD I'd go on it LOL

This would be awsome! I would love this.

Its nothing special. It woul be fun, but if you see the front car where it is, that would be very scary. Its kind of hanging over the drop. Ive seen this vid all over the net now.

[hyyyper]

scary??, that would be the awesomest thing to happen to me, after being stuck on an inversion

You get stuck and when you come back down everyone treats you like a superstar :p

One thing i liked about that video is the people finished the ride off like it had never been stuck with theyre hands up. I LIKE IT.[:D]

[gouldy]

Yes, well, I suffer from vertigo and I WOULD be sick if I was up there for that long, unless I curled up in a ball and just looked at nothing but the floor of the train. But I certainly wouldn't want that guys job!! Having to go up there and sort if out, no way, not for me

i would love it to go up there and get stuck! Then i'd have the longest ttd ride that ever was taken! And i'd got more a change to enjoy the view then except a normal 1-2sec that your going over the top...

i remember being on ripcord and we got the very top and the microphone to tell us to pull the ripcord broke so we were up there waiting for them to be smart enough to yell at us to pull it. my dad screamed like a baby it was great LOL

[coolbeans326]

video was too long, lol. But yeah, it would be fun, they might even through in a complementary pass[:P]

this has happend to me on rct3[lol][:)][lol]

That isnt nothing new. It happened about 2 times before that in the same week. I think its casue the summers here have been pretty hot, so the trains are having a hard time making it up

I'm guessing that the guy that went up there just pushed the train off. It would have been really cool if he'd pushed it off the back so they could do the whole thing again, with a rollback and another launch.

looks like they got their wait's worth.......

You couldn't just "Push" it off. That is a liabiliy issue for the park. There has to be somthing up there, some sort of mechinisum that would push it over with out having to come in physical contact with the train. If that guys foot ever got stuck to the train as he was pushing it... And not only is it a safty issue for the Guy up there, but for the riders on the coaster as well. Intamin had to have acounted for this to happen some time in the life span of TTD, They took the roll backs in to consideration! so there has to be somthing up there.

wow.. talk about really sucky airtime!!! lol.. that's awesome.

i saw this a couple weeks ago...

Yeh you're right Android. I wonder what he did then?

No, they have a guy ride the elevator, and he manually pushes the thing off....

I think we already decided that doesn't make sense.
