Adrenaline junkies were evacuated from a ride at Blackpool Pleasure Beach due to heavy snow this morning.
The iconic Big Dipper came grinding to a halt after stalling in the snow on Saturday (February 19).
One person at the front of the ride took the opportunity to take selfie picture as they waited to get off, Lancs Live reports.
Posting on a local facebook group, Daniel Leach said: "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."
In a statement, Blackpool Pleasure Beach said: "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 is the ultimate wooden coaster with 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.
It comes as heavy snow has fallen in parts of Greater Manchester today in the wake of Storm Eunice.
New weather warnings have been issued for the coming days.
Yellow warnings for rain and wind have been issued across the region.
The warnings come into effect from 12am on Sunday and end at 12pm on Monday.
