Nearly 30 people are trapped on the “Wipeout” rollercoaster at Pleasurewood Hills in Lowestoft, Suffolk, and remain stuck about 50 feet in the air for more than three hours, according to reports.
The Daily Mail reports that roughly 27 riders are affected and that the incident lasts over three hours before the situation is resolved. Details on the cause of the stop, the extent of any injuries, and the timing of the riders’ removal are not provided in the supplied account. The outlet describes the stranded riders being left on the ride as staff work to get them off safely.
Across the available sources, the central points are consistent: the ride is named “Wipeout,” the location is Pleasurewood Hills, riders are high above the ground (around 50 feet), and the disruption continues for more than three hours.
