The first time my family and I rode ToT it was within the first month of opening...first of all, the lights came on as we were riding up. none of the effects worked (obviously) and we could see what everything really looked like. then when we reached the top, the ride stopped. so our entire elevator was just sitting at the top, with the lights on. Eventually, a CM climbed up and told us that there was nothing to worry about and we would be falling shortly. At this point, my sister was freaking out and asked if she could get off but she couldn't so we all just had to sit there for a while more and wait. Finally, they did drop us but the lights were on the entire time. They let us go right back in and ride again, but to this day I'm always pretty nervous when I ride it. It was really just the sitting at the top and thinking about it that got to me>>if i had ridden it before, I probably wouldn't have gotten as nervous.
