Problems abound at Surrey's favourite teenage playground today (sorry, "THE NATION'S THRILL CAPITAL" as the website declares) as Saw: The Ride came to a complete standstill and was then clamped in position on an incline.
As you can see from the image passed to us by one of our roving members, the park have had to get a cherry-picker out to rescue the ride.
Saw: The Ride had a troubled opening period with major down time in its first few weeks of operation.
Based on the hit Saw horror movie series, the ride is a little bit of a nightmare for Thorpe Park on occasions too.
Update: The ride has been struggling to make a full circuit since testing this morning and no riders were stranded on the ride.
