Blackpool Pleasure Beach's Big One breaks mid-ride with people forced to walk down

People riding The Big One at Blackpool Pleasure Beach had to walk down the rollercoaster after it came to a sudden stop.

The ride stopped just before 3pm today (April 23) and photos show those on the rollercoaster having to walk down a huge flight of stairs to disembark the ride safely. It is the second time this month that the ride has halted while in progress, reports the M.E.N.

On April 11, staff members had to ask passengers to walk all the way back down to the ground after it stopped on the lift hill during bad weather. The ride was then closed for the remainder of the day.
