@cnn: Eight students have been rescued after being stuck on the Iron Shark roller coaster at Pleasure Pier in Gavleston, Texas. According to the fire department, the rescue took nearly four hours.
at least it's a fairly comfortable way to stop, could be upside down.

People don’t understand that this proves the ride is safe. It stopping on the lift means that something happened on the track so the train immediately stopped to prevent an accident from occurring

I would have been too afraid to get out of the seat to get on to the ladder and then climb down. The height alone is terrifying. I never would have been on that ride In the first place!! I don’t do roller coasters of any kind!!

I wouldn’t even be able to get off or to go down those stairs!!! My fear of heights would not allow my body to do it!! Literally!!! I would be shaking so much and so bad, my hands and everything would be so sweaty and I’d be frozen! FROZEN IN SHOCK AND FEAR!!!!
