Wild Ride on the Crazy Mouse

When we were at the fair a few weeks ago, the kids wanted to ride the Wild Mouse. They made it around once, jumped back into line, when the mouse stalled. What follows is a photo story of what happens when a roller coaster gets stuck. No one was injured - at least to my knowledge.

There were 2 cars stuck in total. First red shirt dude came up and wandered around for awhile.

He seemed fascinated by the pink car, and I'm assuming the brakes.

I don't think the passengers were amused.

He pushed the entire thing down to a flat area.

Where he was joined by red shirt #2


Trying to fix the brakes or whatever. I think this appears dangerous.

Finally they led the purple car people away.

Then pushed pink car back up.

And led them down.


Then 3 guys pushed the purple car free, and took them both for repairs.
Believe it or not, they fixed it, and the kids managed to ride it that evening.
