Riders aboard a record-breaking roller coaster got a little more thrill than they bargained for Tuesday after the Magnum XL-200 froze at the top of a 205-foot drop.
About a dozen people were forced to evacuate the ride at the Cedar Point amusement park in Sandusky, Ohio, after a mechanical issue caused the ride to stop suddenly, according to local media reports and accounts of the incident shared on social media.
