^That would be horrible to get stuck in It's A Small World.

 

That was a funny video, and it seemed strange that of all rides it happened on CoP. Having the 1920s commentary playing over and over was enough to drive me crazy, and I wasn't even there. Oh well, probably the best emergency evacuation story I've seen/heard, and it was even better since it was caught on tape.

I don't have trouble believing it at all! In June of 2002, we were stuck in 1940 for about 4 cycles in a row. Finally the carousel started to progress again, we lived to see granny in her virtual reality glasses.

 

I was 5 months pregnant at the time and more than happy to sit there in the dark for a while.

oh my god, I'm glad that's never happened to my boyfriend and me. We're both COP freaks and would probably drive people crazy reciting the 1920s dialogue 3 times in a row. Luckily I've never had the "joy" of being evac-ed on a WDW attraction.

haha, nice video Erik. I got stuck in The Laughing Place on Splash Mountain for 20 minutes one time without the music ever stopping.

 

It was awsome.

 

I got stuck in the Haunted Mansion without power. HM without ghosts is far scarier than with O.o

Same thing happened to my wife and I when we were there in March of 2006. It was stuck in the same era for like three or four repetitions.

 

We were drunk and just got to the park at like 9 o'clock for Extra Magic Hours until 2 am. There were like 12 people in the theater and we were all making wise-ass comments and singing along. My Vodka-filled wife Cindy thought she was gonna pee her pants.

 

The highlight of a 10 day, 8 park trip.

I thought torture was illegal in the United States.

 

Oh to be at the mercy of the Carousel of Progress. It's probably the equivalent of being waterboarded with dreams of the future.

I am sitting here at work so I could not have it up full volume... going to have to watch it again tonight, but the ghostly faces of R&E were very "Blair Witch Project" and poor Kristen getting bounced on Daddy's lap. Very funny!

I loved it when the cast member comes on the intercom and announces the ride will be evacuated and everybody starts clapping and cheering!

 

Awesome! It was like a rollback on Xceler8r less all the excitement!

I think CoP would be better if it spun around at 70 mph.

 

Then it would be the "Rotor" or "Gravitron" of Progress.

Best evac in Disney World history. Hands down. Though the initial lurch, screech, and stop was a bit frightening, the whole experence was a blast. I now know what to get KidTums for her birthday: a Niagara Falls fan and a whole handful of fuses.

Oh, gosh, that turned out so awesome!

Such an unexpected and interesting experience.

 

Though I wonder what would have happened if it had gone on for just a little bit longer *thinks*.

Best TPR video I've ever been in!
