We were on Pirates of the Caribbean when it broke down. They literally brought out a wooden plank for us to use to go from the boat to the side. I can now say that I have walked the plank on Pirates!
Yes, evacuated from Frozen on 10/28 just as we were about to go down the flume. They brought out a steel plate to cross the gap between the boat and the exit ramp
People Mover on 10/29 during Boo Bash. Fire alarm went off in Buzz Lightyear which shutdown PM. Castmembers were in a panic running along the vehicles. Must have been a false alarm because things went back online.

We got stuck on Frozen, right where you go from backwards to forward again. After sitting for about 10 minutes, we were evacuated by cast members into a backstage area. It was pretty interesting!
Got stuck on Splash this Oct 2021. Got to go behind the scenes, got a fast pass for another ride, but come to find out not ANY ride and ended up not being able to use it…. Disney is starting to lose its magic … to many break downs. Someone is going to get really hurt
Broke down on Space Mountain at the very top. We were given the choice of walking down or “letting gravity do the work”. We got a push a rode down in an all light up Space Mountain. Very Cool!
We got stuck on TestTrack 3 years ago, luckily we had not reached the outside run. We were walked down the side of the test track by a CastMember. On Oct 15 this year we saw people stuck on the Seven Dwarfs Mine Train. Not sure how the hot out.
Yes, one year we got stuck on three rides! Space mountain-The lights came on and we were low so we got out, Thunder mountain railroad- we have a climb down, and the dinosaur ride-again, the light came on and we had to exit out of our car.
I am mobility challenged, so when splash mountain broke down with us perched at the edge of a drop it was a huge deal for me. My daughter and friend were in the front seat and had to climb into the next seat to exit, because as I said we were literally balancing on the edge of the drop. I had to step out over a pretty wide crevice to get off, then proceed down 3 flights of stairs. I went down the stairs sideways as that is the safest way for me to approach stairs the staff was great and very patient. We were given a fast pass for another ride and a bottle of water. Unfortunately the stairs did me in for the day.
We were stuck on Pirates of the Caribbean at Disneyland. It was right where the pirates are chasing the ladies. One child ended up standing on a seat and peeing into the water! After about 40 minutes they started evacuating us through a very narrow door up a stone floored winding staircase up to the surface. You really have no idea how far down beneath street level you are. We all got fast pass tickets for when the ride reopened but it never opened again that day.
In my forty+ trips to WDW I’ve never been evacuated from an attraction. One year, though, we were on the PeopleMover, and as we were going through Space Mountain it had stopped so we got to see it with all the lights on! Loved it!!!
First time at WDW a few years ago and limited amount of time. Got to Hollywood Studios first at 4pm for Aerosmith Coaster and Tower of Terror. Then took bus to Magic Kingdom and arrived at 8pm. Only 4 hours to do as much as possible…first ride I go on is Pirates and it breaks down at the beginning. Sat there for 2 hours waiting to be evacuated. Only 2 hours before park closed at midnight and I still managed to complete Space Mountain, Carousel of Progress and Country Bear Jamboree. When CA Adventure first opened, I got stuck on a California Screamin train at the top of the hill. Very scary being pulled out of train that far up. Never went on it again. Or Mickey’s Death Wheel either!
