This has happened plenty of times at Six Flags: Great Adventure. I can't even imagine how scary that would be!! :eek:

Wow, talk about one of the worst times for the power to go out. I couldn't imagine hanging upside down for that long and then to be rescued from that same position. I'd have a real conflict of interests when it came to releasing the shoulder harness - one part of me would refuse to let gravity have a chance, but the other side would really want to get down ASAP.
