Anyone ever get stuck on a ride?

Haven't been escorted off, but we were stuck on Pirates for like half an hour, right at the beginning of the jail scene. This was before my sister and I were really old enough to go off on our own - we still had to meet my mom at certain times, and she was calling us going "WHERE ARE YOU" but the reception was horrible and she didn't understand we were stuck.

Another time, at the top of Splash, we were riiiight about to go down the big drop, and it stopped, and we backed up four or five feet. That was weird. And everyone else in the log were first time riders and totally freaking out. There was no announcement or anything, and about five minuets later the ride started back up again..

Peter Pan's Flight last December. A rainstorm blew open an emergency door -the lights came on and the ride stopped in a heartbeat. We were suspended about 20 feet in air for about 25 minutes or so. All I kept thinking was "please don't bring a ladder" (fear of those things for some reason). Castmembers had to physically inspect every room the ride just incase someone made it through the opened door. Then it takes a few minutes to "power cycle" the ride into operation.

We have been stuck on Small World (right at the exit so we just had a short walk along the flume) and California Screamin' (just waited outside the loading dock for about 10 minutes and they got us going again). But the longest one was when our boat on the Jungle Cruise jumped the track. We floated around the hippo pool for quite a while. We had to wait for them to clear out the other boats and then send in the employees to guide the boat back to the track and then put it back on. Interesting experience :-)
