22 riders stuck on Knott’s Berry Farm thrill ride for 2 hours

Nearly two dozen thrill seekers at Knott’s Berry Farm got more excitement than they bargained for when a six-story thrill ride that looks like a flying blender stopped working and left them stranded in the air for more than two hours while crews worked to rescue them.

The Sol Spin ride experienced technical difficulties and stopped at 2 pm on Monday, Nov. 18 with 22 riders on board, according to Knott’s Berry Farm officials.

Knott’s is currently working to safely evacuate the riders, park officials said. Orange County Fire Authority rescue personnel were on hand as a precautionary measure.

Four local news helicopters circled over the Buena Park theme park to document the incident.
