COP...happened on three separate occasions.
Not due to breakdowns...but due to stupid guests that get bored and want to exit.

I feel stupid asking this because I'm sure it's something obvious but what's COP?

I've never been on a ride where it has broken down, but I have been on several rides where they stopped numerous times during the course of the journey and they were not for passengers.
Pooh and Spaceship Earth were the two. On Spaceship Earth, the ride stopped several times, once for more than 15 minutes. They turned the lights on (on part of the ride) and then the announcement, "We are experiencing techinical difficulties, please be patient". On Pooh, it stopped several times and that announcement came on as well. It was entertaining. The whole time I rode Pooh, I kept thinking how much I missed Mr. Toad.

....been "stuck" (any delay +10 minutes to me ...is 'stuck') ...on several rides. Most recently ...Pirates ...just as we were leaving the loading area. Sat there for 20 minutes ....and could see the 'control room' above and in front of us where they turned on the lights and they were fumbling about trying to sort stuff out.
...the "best" was also this past trip ...on Dinosaur. About half way thru ...we stopped moving forward ...HOWEVER ...the hydraulics that shake / lift / tilt the vehicle (to simulate off-road bumps) ....continued to function about every 30 seconds!!! We were stuck for about 10 minutes ...and began to feel like a martini!!!

I never knew that. Good to know! The first time I went on HM it stopped and I thought it was a part of the ride.

I got stuck on Toy Story Mania in Jan 2013 for 2 hours. I took some footage on my phone, a video and some pics but they were very adamant that NO ONE should take photos, even when sitting in the booth waiting to get rescued. I also was stuck on Splash once.

Okay, if I recall, that ride is flat. I would say "screw this", climb out and walk to the nearest emergency exit.

Unfortunately we were locked into the ride buggy thing by a lap bar that would not budge. I had a bruise across my legs for the rest of the week.

Yep, my mother was waiting for me for ages lol She can't go on rides that spin cause of motion sickness. After i got off, she was like "Oh yeah, i went shopping for a bit, knew you'd get off eventually."
So loving lol

I have been stuck a few times on Splash Mtn and the People Mover, but the worst was getting stuck for about 30 minutes on It's a Small World. That song and those dolls . . . oh my!

- Splash breaks down every time I visit. The closest I've been to being on it wh3n it breaks is on line though.
- I stopped going on IASW after getting stuck in 20 minute long boat pile ups twice. It was like a sneak peak of what hell is like.
- Test Track two break downs. One that involved us driving slow as an electric wheelchair through the handling test before stopping in the crash test room.
- Not WDW, but I got stuck on Forbidden Journey for 10 minutes hanging downward in a really uncomfortable position.

I'm pretty sure every time I've been on a ride that stops it's been to let a disabled person on. Except for the last time I went on POTC, that was when the power went out in that part of the park and we got walked off.
