Thrill-seekers were left terrified after a rollercoaster broke down mid-ride, forcing them to climb down on foot.
Dramatic footage shows the ride halted near the top of a steep ascent, with around 20 people stranded outside the cars.
Another clip, filmed by one of the trapped passengers, shows them carefully making their way down two narrow wooden walkways, perched between the track and a sheer drop.

The “Python in Bamboo Forest” rollercoaster at Sunac Land in Nanchang, China, was manually stopped on Friday (1 May) after a fault warning was triggered.
The wooden coaster stretches around 1.5km (0.9 miles), reaches heights of 48m (157ft), and can hit speeds of nearly 100km/h (62mph).
Some visitors reportedly suffered minor injuries from splinters during the evacuation, according to local media.
The family of one injured rider shared a video online claiming the theme park had failed to offer compensation or issue an apology.
Authorities in Nanchang said they had ordered the park – which opened in May 2009 – to carry out safety improvements.
Staff later said government officials had inspected the ride and found operations to be normal, as reported by Need To Know.
They added that one visitor suffered a hand injury caused by a splintered edge and that compensation had already been provided.
