Canada: Roller Coaster Valleys at Canada’s Wonderland During Storm, Riders Stranded

Two of Canada's Wonderland's flagship roller coasters briefly failed to complete their cycles on Saturday, May 23, leaving riders temporarily stranded at the Vaughan, Ontario theme park. Leviathan and Behemoth both experienced what is known as "valleying" — when a coaster loses momentum and stops in a low point on the track — during a torrential downpour with high winds and unseasonably cold weather. Six passengers on Leviathan were safely unloaded and accommodated by park staff, while Behemoth had no riders on board at the time.
