Just spotted this video on Youtube and had to check it out...While it's more for DLP's Phantom Manor it's just where the Doombuggy had to have stopped...Frankly this is kindy freaky having the Phantom constantly laughing at you while you wait for the ride to move....Yep..See ya in your nightmares kiddies!


Any one have any moments like this??

Italian is the last, and I think it may have been swedish between german and spanish? One time Splash Mtn went 101 when I was on it right before the drop and it was just those birds laughing for like 15 minutes, they left the track on so they just kept laughing it was wicked annoying, to say the least.

"Ladies and gentlemen your honey pot will resume motion momentarily please remain seated" for at least two minutes over and over when pooh stopped for whatever reason.

We were in the space mountain tunnel on the people mover when it stopped. It was pitch black. After about 20 secs the lights came on. We were stuck there for a few minutes so without those lights it would have been pretty uncomfortable.

Yes. I have memories of myself being actually stuck on this ride. And the safety spiel starting over...and over...and over again. At a stupid loud volume. In the dark, some AA trying to spook you in French.
Like the deepest hell of Dante.

Dutch and Italian. The guy's accents get progressively weird.

I had a moment like this in HM with the "Ghost Hostess" (The mini bride) at the end for more than a hour and the rest of my trip I kept hearing in my head "Hurry back, Hury back.."

Same exact thing happened to us two weeks ago. We were most of the way through Space Mountain, and could just barely see part of the ceiling projection. We got stuck for maybe five minutes. The darkness starts to close in on you after a while.

we were in the haunted mansion when it stopped near the beginning where you see the hallways and the footsteps on the stairwells. It got scary because we started talking about like if we thought the mansion was haunted with real ghosts, mind plays tricks on you-- also I don't think a lot of people where around

I absolutely love pre-recorded breakdown spiels, though. Most people don't get to hear them, so if you do, its kind of a treat in a way.

Now that's the spirit! I'm going to remember this attitude, it's awesome.

Sometimes it's a plain hassle when your ride breaks down. But other times, one ought to savour the opportunity to see and hear things one normally doesn't.

My least favourite e-stop was before Test Track had it's soft opening and they had CM's test it out a few times. I was stuck in the hot chamber. This was in May '97 (one of the earlier dates it was "supposed" to open) and the temp outside was probably low-mid 80's. By the time I got out of there - being outside in the sun felt like air conditioning. I thought I was going to faint or puke for a while there.

I can't help but think of that everytime I'm on the ride and I'm so relieved when we get through that room

I remember going on Test Track for the very first time when I was like 10 or 11 years old. It was open for less than a year. We almost got through the whole ride, but we got stopped on the banked curve that's in front of the building!! It wasn't creepy at first, but 30 minutes later, the ride never started up again. We started thinking, "Oh no! What if another car slams into us?" and "What if WE crash into another car??" That's when things started getting creepy.

Then, a CM walked up and said that we needed to exit the car and walk down the ramp! Everyone just kinda froze. That curve doesn't look too high up, but when you're up there trying to walk down a slanted, banked road with no railings to hold on to, it gets kinda scary. Our imaginations were going crazy, and it took a lot of courage to walk down the car, on the road, and back into the building. I'll never forget that day.

Wish they would have showed them getting off and leaving through the passage ways

My favorite is Tower of Terror's. I found a video where you can hear it clearly, here:
