Nightmare Fuel: Eight People Were Stuck Upside Down On a Roller Coaster For Over Three Hours

Going upside down on a ride is one of the scariest things you can do at an amusement park. Getting stuck is always a thought in the back of your mind, but more just an irrational fear. Well, not here. 

I can handle getting stuck upright or even when you are about to go on a big drop, but being upside down like a fucking bat trying to fall asleep is a nightmare of all nightmares. Some poor bastards were stuck on there for 3 hours. Think about how fucking awful that is. Blood is just rushing to your head while you also think you are almost certainly going to die. Once 15 minutes go by there also goes all of my hope of rescue. Three hours? No fucking shot. 

I am trying to think of all things that are very easy to do for 3 hours and I still get fidgety. If I sit down in a movie theatre and you tell me this movie is going to be 3 hours that's all I can think about. How am I going to get through these next three hours with my sanity in check?

You know what? This is on the riders. This is a carnival, not like a Six Flags or some shit. You are riding those rollercoasters at your own risk when you go to a carnival. When you go on the zipper that is all rusty or the gravitron you need to know you are signing your life away when you step onto one of those.
