December 21, 201510 yr from SkyTower ride: http://abcnews.go.com/US/seaworld-guests-off-sky-tower-ride/story?id=35892669
December 21, 201510 yr Glad all passengers are safe, and that the first responders are in constant contact.
December 21, 201510 yr Didn't this happen at another park over the summer?A few summers ago, on a WindSeeker at Knott's Berry Farm. Riders were stuck at the top for a while, it was also the same incident that led to the new yellow evac systems for various WindSeeker installations.

December 23, 201510 yr To call what happened on SeaWorld's Sky Tower Monday an evacuation is misleading. They were up there a long time, but they got the cabin back down before unloading. An evac, by my definition anyway would involve exiting the cabin when it is still off the ground (like what happened when I was on Sky Trek Tower at Six Flags Great America last June).Though looking closer, I see that this topic was likely posted during the event, and that basket certainly had me thinking an evac was coming.

December 23, 201510 yr It wasn't yesterday, to start with... Oops. See, this is what happens when none of the TV shows are new, all days seem the same.
December 24, 201510 yr People got stuck on the SkyTower in San Diego. Pretty sure that time they were able to bring them down.
