    “My entire bladder hurts. I was holding back throw-up. My legs are killing me,” said Daniel Allen, one of the individuals on the ride who called the 25-minute ordeal “just crazy.”

    Teens who were stuck on the ride told KOIN 6 News being suspended in the air like that made them think about life.

    “People praying to God, screaming for their life, throwing up, passing out, it was bad,” Jordan Harding said.

    A woman who witnessed the ride getting stuck from the ground recalled praying for those upside down and strapped in for nearly a half-hour.

    “The ride went up, the kids got stuck on the ride and they were just dangling,” said Lavina Waters. “And somebody came in and said ‘hey, the kids are stuck on the ride’ and I look up, and sure enough, they were stuck on the ride.”
