He posted on Facebook: "We just stalled on Big Dipper in the snow and had to be evacuated.
"Slowest ride I've ever had and I called in near the big blue what we wasn't gonna make it back.
"Rolled up into the brakes and the rear of the train was half way down the hill.
"Great experience but freezing cold. Best front row ride ever."
Blackpool Pleasure Beach released a statement confirming the ride came to a stop before reaching the station platform.
The statement read: "The Big Dipper came to a slow stop a short distance from the station platform.
"Passengers were all escorted safely from the ride to the platform a short walk (approx 50ft) away and we thank them for their patience.
"The ride is reopening for the rest of the day and the park is open until 5pm this afternoon."
The Big Dipper features five drops and a series of twisting and banked turns.
The original ‘Big Dipper’ is now almost 100 years old, the track was extended and reconstructed in 1934.
