With all of the fanfare surrounding Canada's Wonderland's new record-breaking rollercoaster, AlpenFury, a lot of eyes have been on the busier-than-ever park this season. One clip posted on August 16 with the caption "Leviathan gets stuck again lol" shows riders strapped into the ride, sitting immobile about halfway up the initial summit. Videos of similar incidents were posted to the platform on July 12, July 16, July 20, August 6 and August 20, among others, including a few from previous years. The sensors detected what they thought was a hazard and therefore stopped the chain lift," one person surmised. Also, that safety is, of course, "a top priority at Canada's Wonderland."
