LIVE: People stuck on ride at Knott’s Berry Farm

[garywinkler]

This News cast guy is clueless! I'v been stuck on a ride before, 10min is uncomfortable, 20 min is painful, 1/2 hour gets excruciating, can't imagine over an hour. Knees bent, circulation disruption, it's very serious. Knotts will be getting their shorts sued off. It's ridiculous that this situation is being taken so lightly. Turning down emergency services is negligent beyond belief. I pull my restraints very tight only planning to be there for a few minutes. An hour like that would be painful even at a level position, like I was.

Not a good time to skip the bathroom before getting on the ride .

[Yo-yo-dtze]

This is why I refuse to go to any amusement parks and getting on the rides because of mechanical issues nope no thanks my anxiety wouldn’t allow me to do this I can’t fathom being stuck on a ride no matter how long it is

[maryswanson]

It makes me panicky just watching this! The poor people sitting on the ends!

Two different rides got stuck at six flags over texas this year. One at Six Flags Fiesta Texas....One got stuck upside down in Oregon a few months ago. Amusement parks aren't doing so good lately...

[heyboyer]

I can imagine a class action lawsuit against the park. They will claim negligence on the ride's operational status and seek damages. The park will offer a refund on their ticket.

So many "live" comments were saying to sue. Sue over what exactly?!?! Nobody died, nobody got seriously hurt! Only a moron would go into these parks thinking that these machines work flawlessly.

[song-rzhi]

I wonder how many injury-trauma lawyers dashed out to the park.

[LannieLord]

Imagine smoking pot before you went on that ride ?

[juliec]

I am surprised they did not make them go for medical evaluation

[linglang]

Im only imagining me cursing out everybody for leaving my child in the air. SOMEONE WOULD HAVE DEFINITELY HAD TO GET HOM DOWN. THE MECHANIC WILL NOT BE WORKING ON SHIT.

[NatalieJHall-blov]

I don't see any firefighters and paramedic at the park! suing big time for Knott's Berry

[danaegoddess]

Let me take this place off my list of places to visit 😬

[robertgarcia]

From Steve. All of you are on the NEWS. 😮😮

[neilmartin]

Weird how the only two people who seemed to be hurt were sitting next to each other.😂🤣😅😆
Coincidence? I don't think so.

[GingerCC-hebe]

They sent ONE man up to work on the problem? A second pair of eyes and hands is useful in all situations especially one this serious! Perhaps being short staffed caused this to happen.

[arlanstrong]

Ha! I'm first. Hey I just came from the live chat and you gotta check out the comments if you can 😂. Demented 😂

[Slickgoodlin]

With apologies to the Kingston Trio's, "M.T.A."

Well did they ever return?
No, they never returned
And their fate is still unlearned
They may ride forever
Over the streets of Knott's Berry
They're the folks, who never returned

My co-workers and I couldn't stop laughing at the guy who took a leak while stuck on that ride. Our manager told us that it's not funny and told us to go do something else even though she was kinda giggling as she said that. Afterall, it was funny.
