Hey CoasterCritic, yes there have been a few times where people got stuck upside down in loops on coasters. Most of them shuttle. I remeber when I was younger watching the news when Montezuma's Revenge at KBF got stuck upside down in the loop with a train full of people for quite some time ( it was not just a few minuits). I think this happened on Montezuma twice in its history if i remeber. Then there was Demon at great america that got stuck upside down in the loop when a wheel assembly came loose, got stuck in the track and caused the train to screech to a hault in one of the loops. The park staff went up and bucked the train to the tracks with steel wires/chains to prevent it from moving while fire fighters evacuated the train. riders were up there for hours, blacking out and everything. that story was on a t.v. special one time. there was also another shuttle coaster this happend on in the past as well on the news but I dont remeber wich one but i remeber the track was blue.

That would be bad. I wouldnt be scared of being upside down, but all that blood going to your head would be painful.

Wasn't there people stuck upside down on Steel Hawg? I know it wasn't a loop, but that's the only accident I can think of in which people got stuck upside down.

I hope they weren't stuck up there for too long.
